The Amazing World of Friendship

*BEEEEEE-* -click-

Darwin slowly opened his eyes, as he saw his feline brother, Gumball, groggily click the snooze button on the alarm clock.

...

...Wait, the snooze button?

"Gumball!" This unexpected shout made the feline Brother jump, and fall flat on his face.

"Oops, sorry Gumball. Didn't mean for you to... break your face. But you can't be pressing the snooze button, it's Monday! Do you have any idea what mom will do to us if she know's we slept late? She'd kill us!" Darwin exclaimed to Gumball, whose face was still flat on the floor.

Gumball let these words sink in, and slowly got off the dirty carpet with an unamused look on his face. "Yea, I know. But did you have to scare the bejeebus out of me like that? Now I have to go wash my face off." He told Darwin.

Darwin slipped out of his little bowl, and landed on the floor on his two feet. "Sorry, I just didn't know what to say at the moment. You know how I am about saying things off the spot like that. Anyways, we gotta go, and now! The bus will be here in any minute." He said, as he ran towards Gumball to pull his arm.

"Hold on, I still have to go wash my fa- waaAAAAH!!" Gumball shouted as Darwin yanked his left arm to catch the bus in time.

"No time for that, we gotta get to school!"

-_-_---The Road to School---_-_-

"Aww, c'mon man, look at that! Some guy just walked towards that homeless guy, and just stuck his hand out as if he was going to say, 'Hey, I'm a big jerk and I'm proud of it!'" Darwin said in disapproval towards the rude snob.

"Eh, don't let it bother you man. People are jerks like that all the time. You'll get use to it." Gumball pointed out too Darwin, "Besides, who knows, maybe he's homeless cause he's a jerk. It's just the Jerk Cycle." Gumball finished.

"The... Jerk Cycle?" Darwin questioned his brother.

"Alright, listen up, this might save your scaly butt some day. Or not, who knows." Gumball said with a shrug. "Anyways, the jerk cycle goes like this; a guy is a jerk to one person, in which that person is a jerk to him, and then they fight, they go home, and then more people are jerks to those same two people, until those said people can't take it anymore, get mad, get kicked out of there home for assaulting the landlord with a spoon," Gumball shuddered at that part, "and then end up on the streets where other people are jerks to them." Gumball finished.

"That... made no sense." Darwin said with a questioned look.

"Yea, but I don't want you taking me on an insane adventure through one mistake that causes everything to go wrong." Gumball exclaimed with his hand up in a downward flat position.

"Me? You're the one who constantly brings me on constant adventures that make no sense!" Darwin shouted to his brother.

"Alright, let's just agree to disagree." Gumball said to Darwin, who still had his arms crossed.

"Uh oh, school starts in one minute! C'mon, dude!" Darwin said as he reached out for Gumball's arm... again.

"Hey! You know I can walk, right?"

"Not with those stubby legs."

"...you've made your point."

-_-_--- At School ---_-_-

"Alright, you troublemakers. Which one of you did it?!?" Miss Simeon shouted to the classroom, as each of the students internally jumped.

Eesh, Miss. Simeon doesn't seem to be in a very good mood right now. What do you think happened this time?" Gumball whispered over to Darwin, both of whom were clueless.

"I don't know, man. But whatever happened, it must of been pretty bad to peeve off Miss Simeon this bad." Darwin quietly responded. As the two boy's secretly chatted, Miss Simeon had began to notice them, and slowly walked up to both of there desks. Once they noticed this, they slowly gulped.

"...So... whispering in class, I see? What were you whispering about, huh? About how you're going to get out of what you did?" Miss Simeon said, questioning the two boy's.

"Well, maybe we might of did it, if you actually told us what it is that happened." Gumball told Miss Simeon.

Miss Simeon pointed her finger at Gumball's face, very close to contact. "Don't play dumb with me, Gumball. I know you made that huge crack on the side of the school! I don't know how, but you cause mischief in every form! And this is certainly a form of mischief!" Miss Simeon said, pointing at Gumball's direction, to which he slowly pushed away her boney finger.

"...Crack? I didn't see any crack when I was walking to school. Hold on, let me rephrase that, when I was dragged to school." Gumball looked at Darwin, whom then put a 'sorry' face on, followed by a shrug.

"I don't care if you were driven here by an elephant driving a monster truck, all I want to know is how that huge thing got there! Do you know how much it will cost the school to fix that?"

"...No-"

"Quite a lot! You're coming with me. You too, Darwin."

"What?!? What did I do?!?" Darwin asked Miss Simeon. Before she could answer, she grabbed both of their arms, and stormed off to the exit. Totally forgetting that class was still in session. When she closed the door behind her, Banana Joe jumped on his desk, took off his skin, and shouted; "Class is over! Woohoo!!"

-_-_--- Outside ---_-_-

"You see? That thing right there! How the heck did you two imbeciles do this?!?" Miss Simeon asked in a fit of rage whilst pointing at the huge crack crack right next to the school door. Gumball stepped towards it to get a closer inspection, and simply shrugged at Miss Simeon.

"I have no clue how this thing got here, and I don't think we saw this when we walked in. Right, Darwin?" Gumball asked his fishy friend.

"Nnnope!" Darwin said, walking towards Gumball. "Never saw this. Maybe it happened when we were in class?" Darwin suggested.

"Nahh, I think we would have heard it happen." Gumball responded to Darwin. "Hmm... I wonder how deep it is..." Gumball stretched out his arm, reaching the crack inside of the school. "Wow, that's pretty deep!" Darwin was tempted to say 'that's what she said', but then remembered this is a show for kids. Hurray for fourth wall breaking.

Suddenly, the mysterious crack started to glow, and tug at Gumball's arm. "Waaaghh!! Darwin, it's eating me! It's eating meee! Help!"

Darwin grabbed his best friend's free hand, trying to pull him out of the weird thing that's starting to  consume his arm. Alas, it was to no use. Gumball and Darwin were both sucked into the crack as if it were a black hole, leaving a bewildered ape to ponder what the heck just happened.

-_-_--- A Certain Cottage ---_-_-

"♩Hm hm hmm, hmm hm hm hmm!♩" A certain yellow pegasus hummed, while also cleaning her cottage with a broom, dust pan and trashbag.

-_-_--- Unknown ---_-_-

Gumball shrieked in fear, as he was sucked into some rainbow vortex... thing. Bracing for his own life.

"Aaaagh! This is taking forever!!" Gumball shouted to nobody in particular. What the heck was he looking at? Was he going through some kind of acid trip? Mom did tell him to stay off of drugs...

Gumball suddenly snapped out of thought as he could faintly, but surely see a small light in front of him, as the rainbow vacuum sucked him closer and closer into it. He shrieked once more as he finally reached this light, slowly passing out whilst being engulfed in pure white..

-_-_---Insert Words Here---_-_-

"Uuugh... my head..." Gumball said, while slowly placing his hand on his shoulder. Great, first he gets sucked in by the schools buttcrack, then sent thru the insides of a share bears vacuum, and now... Well, he doesn't really know where he's at right now. Where ever he was, the thing he was laying on was a lot softer than his bed. Seriously, that things got like, 20 broken pieces of wood under it, each one pointing above the bed, stabbing him in the back each time he lays down.

A couple minutes had passed, Gumball slowly retained his vision, but at the time everything was blurry. The only thing he could make out was something staring at him.

...Wait, what?

"The heck?" Gumball asked himself. As the blur finally began to finally drift off, Gumball could see a..... a-uh.....

...A bunny. No seriously, some peeved off bunny was on his stomach, watching him with large beady eyes. 'Okay, I'm not sure if that's cute, or mildly creepy.' Gumball thought to himself. Gumball and the bunny stared each other for what seemed like 10 minutes, but was actually about 10 seconds before Gumball decided to break the ice.

"Oookay... you can stop staring at me now." He said, knowing he certainly wasn't going to get a response but hey, it was worth a shot. As he said this though, the bunny looked slightly shocked, but remained in his position. 'Okay, mildly creepy for sure.'  A couple of seconds later, Gumball decided he'd had enough of this, and decided to try to get up.... Much to his dismay. "Agghh!! W-What the heck happened to my back!?!"

...When did he break his back?

As Gumball began whimpering like a baby, his whimpers were cut off after he had suddenly heard footsteps... Er, hooves? Cow? Something? The door slowly peered open, as each second went on, Gumball got more curious at who was opening the door. Ehm, that, and why the heck did this constipated looking bunny keep staring at him like he ate his carrot. Gumball could see a yellow... Hoof... thing, slowly creak the door open. Revealing a yellow-furred pony with pink hair. Or, was it called mane? Gumball tended to not pay attention in class a lot

"Huh? O-Oh, you're a-awake. D-Did Angel give you a h-hard time? T-That would e-explain the s-shriek I heard..." The pony managed to muster up the words, as the bunny whom Gumball guesses is 'Angel' jumped off of him, and hopped towards the pony.

'Waaait, am I forgetting some thing? Oh yea, it just talked!... Well actually, most of Elmore consists of hippy clouds, a giant dinosaur and apparently a band-aid for a nurse. Talking pony things still pretty weird I guess.'

"Uhh.... hi?"

The weird pony looked like it was about to faint, but let out loud squeak before running down what appeared to be a staircase.

"...Was it something I said?"

-_-_---Outside, 20 minutes later---_-_-

"So... let me get this straight, I'm in a world where technicolor ponies are the superior race?" Gumball told the pony in whom called herself "Fluttershy".

"Y-Yes... B-But don't forget ab-bout the other r-races, t-too." She mustered up from the back of her throat, barely saying anything.

This reminded Gumball of that... horrible... pony movie Anais wanted to watch, but luckily couldn't go 10 seconds in before thankfully allowing them to be free'd from it's evil curse. "Eurrhhg...." Gumball quietly moaned in disgust.

"S-So, where are y-you from?" Fluttershy asked.

"Oh, I'm from Elmore. It's a weird town that somehow always somehow ends up turning against me in the worst possible moments."

"I-I've never heard o-of Elmore..." Fluttershy put her hoof on her... chin?

As they continued to chat about various things, something in the back of Gumball's mind struck him. He couldn't quite think of what it was, so it probably wasn't that important.

"S-Something on your mind?" Fluttershy asked him, in which Gumball shrugged.

"Well there was, but I just kind'a forgot i-..." Gumball cut off his sentence, as his pupils slightly shrunk.

"W-What is it?"

"Ooooh no.... no-no-no-no-no this is bad!"

"W-What?"

"Well first, my mom is going to KILL me... Second, where the heck is Darwin!"

"D-Darwin?" She asked Gumball, giving a confused look.

"O-Oh, huh. Guess I didn't mention him, huh? Ehm... Darwin is basically my adopted fish brother. He was just a pet fish, but then he grew legs and became part of the family."

Fluttershy gave an extremely confused look.
