Chapters From one world, to another
For what felt like an eternity, Connor and Dave felt a huge pressure on their bodies. Was it that huge tree branch? Yeah, it probably was. Slowly opening his eyes, Conner saw nothing but darkness. He tried to push himself up, but couldn't find the strength to do so. Finally letting his eyes adjust to the dark, he tried pushing himself up again. This time, it went a lot smoother. Heck, even the pressure on his body was gone. Standing up, he felt a sharp pain in his back. He bend his back slightly, receiving some uncomfortable cracks in the process.
"Ooh. Defiantly going to feel that in the morning." He said as he looked down at the ground, only for him to see.. Dark? Well, he could still see a bit, but not much.
"Wait a sec." Connor said as he started to search for Dave. "Dave! Dave, where are you?" He shouted. No response. Where the hell was he? Was this the afterlife? Or was it something like The Nexus, in Demon Souls? "Dave, stop playing and show yourself!" Conner demanded, a hint of anger in his voice.
Suddenly, Conner felt a hand being placed on his shoulder. He turned around and saw Dave; standing in front of him. "You called, sir?" Dave asked, imitating an English accent.
"You dick!" Connor said as he hugged his friend tightly.
"Fuck, my back!" The two friends exclaimed in union. Letting go of each other, they looked at each other in confusion. "You're supposed to be dead!" They said in union.
"No, you're supposed to be dead!" Dave said, pointing his index finger accusingly at Connor. "You got crushed by that tree branch! Which, might I add, was a very stupid way for your life to come to an end." Dave said as he looked around The Abyss . "Wow, it's dark in here. But I can still see you clearly. The fuck?"
"Hey stupid." Connor said, poking Dave's head. "If I'm dead, then what are you doing here?" He asked.
Dave coughed awkwardly as he rubbed the back of his head. "Moral support? You know, for your spirit t finally go to Hell-- I mean Heaven."
"Moral support, my ass!" Connor said angrily. "I don't know what the hell happened, but this is not normal!"
Dave shrugged as he looked around the vast space of darkness they were in. "Maybe this is like The Nexus, from Demon Souls."
"That's what I was thinking, too!" Conner said, looking around the dark area as well. "But, I never expected the afterlife to be this.. Boring."
"Yeah, it is pretty boring. And to be honest, this place kind of reminds me of The Abyss, from Dark Souls, as well." Dave added, getting on one knee and touching the dark they were both standing in. "Feels normal." He shrugged.
"Well this is just great!" Connor exclaimed, throwing his arms up. "We're stuck in The Abyss , and we're dead!"
"Hey, maybe we aren't dead." Dave said as he held his chin in thought. "Perhaps we died, but aren't dead. Maybe this is some sort of Limbo. This could also be a gateway to the afterlife. Maye we didn't pass, because we committed a sin."
"That is probably the most believable theory you've come up with." Connor said as he slung his backpack of his back. Opening it, he checked if everything was still present. And to his surprise, it was. Everything was still there.
"Looks like death didn't really care if you brought your backpack with you, huh?" Dave asked, holding out his hand. "Come on, I know you always carry a bag of Skittles with you. Give me some."
Conner sighed as he grabbed a few Skittles from the small jar he had brought with him. Handing Dave a few, he grabbed a few for himself and put the jar back in his backpack.
"Blegh , I hate the yellow ones." Dave muttered as he threw the yellow Skittles on the ground-- or dark, to be precise.
"Dude, not cool!" Connor said as he bend over to pick up the Skittles, Dave had so rudely disrespected. Only for them to covered in darkness, and disappear into the dark. Connor stood there, still bend over and his mouth agape. He slowly got up and looked at Dave.
"Hmm, now these Skittles I like." Dave said, happily munching on the red Skittles he had put in his mouth. Suddenly, the remaining Skittles were smacked out of Dave's hand. Dave could only watch as his precious Skittles fell to the darkness. "No!" Dave screamed as he looked at Connor with an angered expression. "You motherf-- Gaah! W-What the hell man! Let go of my head."
"Shut up dude!" Connor hissed at him, pushing Dave's head down so he could clearly see the Skittles that were currently being devoured by the darkness. "Did you see that?" Connor asked, a hint of fear in his voice.
"Yeah." Dave said as he smacked Connor's Skittles out of his hand. "Never disrespect the Skittles, bruh!"
"But you just did." Connor stated as he watched his Skittles being devoured, also. "What the hell is wrong with this place?"
"I don't know." Dave replied as he started poking the darkness underneath him. "I think Mr. Abyss is really hungry."
"Mr. Abyss ?" Connor repeated, looking at Dave with a smug grin. "Well, Mr. Abyss should be careful. If he eats too much, he might get sick."
"Yeah, and fat!" Dave laughed, poking Connor's shoulder. "The Fatbyss !"
Connor shook his head. "That's the only thing you can come up with?" He asked.
"Well it was either that, or me, saying: The Abyss is fucking ugly and boring." Dave replied, smirking as he looked at Connor. "Hey, let's take a huge dump right here." He laughed.
Connor couldn't help but laugh as well. "Taking a shit in the afterlife, seems legit." He said as he grabbed Dave's flashlight and turned it on. "I wonder." He said as he pointed the flashlight up and put his hand in front of it. "Ahw, I thought I could make those shadow figures with my hand." He sighed as he threw the flashlight at Dave. Unfortunately for Dave, he wasn't good at catching things. So the flashlight fell towards the darkness.
"Oh hell no!" Dave said as he watched his flashlight being consumed by darkness. He quickly grabbed hold of the edge of his flashlight and started to pull as hard as he could. "He's putting up a fight." Dave grunted as he pulled.
"Put your weight into it!" Connor said, cheering him on.
"How about you help me?" Dave grunted as his head started to turn red. Suddenly, Dave felt a strange substance on his hands. Looking down at his hands, he saw that the darkness was starting to consume his hands! Letting go of his flashlight, Dave tried to pull his hands out of the darkness. "Help!" Dave screamed in terror.
Connor, having just noticed what was happening to his friend, quickly ran towards him and grabbed hold of his shoulders. "Alright! On three! One, two, three!" The two friends pulled as hard as the could, but to no avail. The darkness had already reached Dave's chest.
"Well, I'm done for!" Dave screamed.
"No! I'm not leaving you!" Connor said as he started to kick the darkness that had latched itself around Dave. "Let go of my friend!" He demanded as he continued kicking, only for the darkness to latch around his leg. Connor fell to the ground and hit his head. He rubbed his head and grunted in pain; as he tried to get up. Only for him to realize he couldn't feel his legs anymore. "Holy shit!" Connor screamed as he watched the darkness consume both of his legs, making its way up to his chest. Connor took a quick glance at Dave. The darkness had already made its way up to his neck.
"Dave, I can't feel my legs!" Conner shouted.
"I can't feel my dick either!" Dave shouted.
Connor started laughing. "No, that is not funny!" He said sternly as gave his friend a sincere smile. "Thanks for always being there for me."
"Thanks for sucking my dick that one time." Dave smiled back.
"I never sucked your--."
"Later!" Dave cut him off as the darkness completely consumed him. Connor could only watch as his friend disappeared into the dark.
"So, this is it?" Conner asked out loud as he looked down at his body, only to see that the darkness had reached his chest, and was now making its way up to his neck. Connor sighed. What had he done to deserve this? What had Dave done to deserve this? Closing his eyes, Connor let out a sigh of relief as he felt the darkness finally consuming him completely. It wasn't painful or anything. It kind of felt like you were standing in a pool with your clothes on, and you were taking small steps into the pool. It was that kind of feeling. But suddenly, the feeling was gone. Conner felt.. At peace.
"I'm high as a motherfucker." Dave's voice echoed through his ears.
Aaand, peace is gone.
Connor prepared for the worst. He dared not to open his eyes. But suddenly, he felt something hard underneath his body. Slowly opening his eyes, only to close them seconds later. "Fuck, who turned on the light?" He asked as he opened his eyes again. Looking up, he found out that he was no longer in The Abyss. But rather, in a much better place. But still, laying flat on your back isn't really pleasant. But still, this place we so pretty. A place with light, a sun, and clouds. "Is this heaven?" He asked himself.
Suddenly, a familiar figure blocked his view of the sky and sun. "Nope, not heaven." Dave grinned as he held his hand out. Connor groaned as he grabbed hold of Dave's hand. Dave pulled his friend up and he looked around, trying to determine if this was going to be another hell-hole.
"Where are we?" Connor asked.
Dave shrugged. "Don't know, but looked what I found!" He said, waving a familiar flashlight in front of Conner's face. "And look!" Dave said, pointing at the ground in front of Connor. "Our Skittles." Dave said as he picked one up. "Five second rule."
"It's been more than five seconds." Connor said sarcastically, smacking the Skittle from Dave's hand. "And besides, I can get you more." He said, looking around again. It was then that Conner's eyes fell upon a building. A building that held a lot of similarity to a building they hated the most.
"Is that a school?" Dave asked, looking at the building. "I think it is."
"Well, only one way to find out, right?" Connor asked as he started to walk towards the school, only to be stopped by Dave. "What's wrong?" Connor asked I think confusion.
"This could be another trick. I do not want to be eaten by something again!" Dave whined.
"Man up." Connor said as he grabbed Dave by his collar, dragging him towards the school.
"You know." Dave said as he looked at Connor. "I'm surprised our clothes are all clean and have no holes or pieces ripped out of them. Our jeans, your Star Wars t-shirt. By the way, love it that Darth Vader is printed on it."
"Thank you." Connor said politely.
"You're welcome." Dave replied with a smile. He got out of Connor's grip and continued. "And my t-shirt is all 'good in the hood', and our Jays are too!"
"I still don't understand why you call them 'Jay's'. Aren't they called Jordan’s?" Connor asked.
Dave shrugged as he and Conner walked up the stairs, almost reaching the entrance of the school. "Jays, Jordan’s. Does it even matter?" They reached the entrance, and Conner was about to enter, until Dave grabbed hold of his hand.
"Dude, isn't this against the law?" Dave asked.
Connor shrugged. "Meh, if it is, then we just gotta run."
Connor opened the doors and walked inside, Dave was not far behind. They looked around the school. It was just a regular school. Lockers, a bell, and posters of upcoming events. But what did confuse the two teenagers, were the students.
"Are you seeing what I'm seeing?" Dave asked Conner, as he looked at several other students.
"I am defiantly seeing students who used to much body paint." Connor replied as he nudged his friend. "Look at that girl." He said, carefully pointing his finger at a student. She had a long pony tail; that she had probably dyed. Because it was pink, very pink. Then came her outfit. A short purple skirt and a lavender hoodie that had the image of trumpet in the centre. She wore white pink shoes and (surprisingly normal) earrings.
"Look at her hair." Dave laughed silently. "It goes from big, to small." He said, taking a closer look at her hair. "Actually it goes from big, to shit."
"What's wrong with their skin color?" Conner asked, looking at some of the students in disgust. "That’s just wrong, man."
"Maybe they’re sick?" Dave replied, watching as several students gave him weird looks. "Or maybe they’re into some weird fetish."
Suddenly, a female student walked up to them. To the their surprise. Her skin looked quite normal. The only problem, was her hair. It was a mixture of yellow and red stripes.
"Watch out dude." Dave whispered to Connor. "It’s the flag of Spain, only a human version." He started to laugh, only for the student that was walking towards them; look at them with a confused expression.
"Dave, you’re making a scene!" Connor hissed at him.
"Hello."
Both Connor and Dave turned their heads towards the student. They smiled at her and cleared their throats.
"What’s up?""Dave asked, leaning against Connor’s shoulder. "Me and my boyfriend over here wanted to check this place out." He said as he moved his head closer towards Connor’s cheek.
Conner slapped his face away. "Dude, not cool. Not cool at all."
The student continued to stare at them.
"Listen." Connor said, holding his hand out. "Forgive my friend's behavior. He’s.. Just being himself." Connor looked at Dave, and Dave looked at him with a smug grin.
"That’s okay." The student said as she shook Connor’s hand. "My name is Sunset Shimmer. Are you the new students I’m supposed to show around?"
"Yes!" Dave replied with a smile.
"No!" Connor quickly interrupted, grabbing Dave by his collar again. "Again, sorry for his behavior." Conner apologized as he left the school, only to be stopped by Sunset Shimmer.
"Wait!" Sunset said. Dave and Connor turned their heads. "If you're not the new students, then what are you two doing in Canterlot High?" She asked.
"None of your business." Dave replied as he glared at her.
"We just moved here." Connor said, receiving a confused look from Dave. "Yeah, we just moved here and, uhh, we're going to attend school very soon. We just have to get settled in and then we'll be.. Here, I guess?"
Sunset nodded. "Okay, well, welcome and I hope to see you soon!" She smiled at them
"Yeah, later!" Dave said as he ran through the exit.
Connor smiled at her and nodded his head. "Until we meet again." He said as he turned around and walked towards the exit.
Sunset watched him exit the school. She shook her head and turned around. 'That's weird.' She thought, taking a glance back at the exit. 'I thought the new students were girls.' Deciding to just 'shrug it off', Sunset started walking in the direction; cafeteria of Canterlot High.
"Dave, wait up!" Connor shouted, running after his friend, who was currently running towards the statue of a horse. Connor watched as Dave sat down in front of the statue. Joining his friend, he looked at him and nudged his arm. "What's wrong?" Connor asked.
"What's wrong? " Dave repeated. "I have no idea where we are. I don't know how we got here. That 'Abyss' we were in just minutes ago, just everything is being processed by my brain. But it's too much too take in at once!"
"Well." Connor said as he grabbed his I-phone from his pocket. "There's only one way to find out of we're dead. Or are in some kind of alternate universe." Connor dialed his mother's number.
"And?" Dave asked, a hint of hope in his voice.
Connor shook his head. "No service. Sorry dude, but we're not going anywhere."
"If this is my punishment for cussing so much." Dave said as he looked up at the sky. "Then I'm sorry! You hear me, God?! I'm sorry!" He shouted at the air.
"Dave!" Connor said as he put both of his hands on his friend's shoulders. "Calm down." He said, looking him straight in the eyes. "Everything is going to be all right. I promise."
"Pinkie promise?" Dave asked, holding his pinky finger out.
Connor rolled his eyes. "Pinkie promise."
Dave smiled and stood up. "Well, first things first." He said as he looked down at Conner. "We need a place to sleep!"
"How much money do you got on you?" Connor asked.
"Nothing." Dave replied, scratching the back of his head. "You?"
"Nothing. We're so fucked." Conner sighed as he looked off into the far distance. "There's a town, a few miles from here. Maybe there is someone that can help us." He said as he looked at Dave.
Dave sighed and nodded. "What do we have to loose? Alright, let's go."
And so, the two teens started their long walk towards the town. Not knowing what to expect. Well, let's see what fate has in store for them; this time.
From one world, to another
Connor and Dave could not be more depressed. Well, they weren't really depressed, but they felt depressed. Let's put it that way. Realization hit them like a freight train. They were sad, very, very sad. But when your best friend is a first-class idiot, things can take a quick turn. Having finally reached the town they were headed for, they looked around and realized that this town was very colorful, just like its inhabitants. They were confused, confused about the people that lived here. What was wrong with them? Their skin was either purple, orange, green, white, or even pink! Freaking pink!
Trying to ignore the strange people, they walked through the crowded streets of the town.
"I swear to god, there is something very wrong with this place." Dave said, taking quick glances at several people that walked passed them. "Right dude?" He asked as he looked at Connor.
"Yeah." Connor replied as he looked at his feet. "When I asked people in what state we are, they just looked at me funny and walked away." He said as he looked at Dave. "What are we going to do?"
Dave shrugged. "I really have no idea. I guess we have to find a place to spend the night."
"Or nights . Connor added as he and Dave continued walking through the town. On the way, they came across various shops, and saw the strangest people.. Again, their freaking skin colors, man. They were about to give up and just spend the night on the streets, until Dave came up with a brilliant idea.
"No, dude! We are not robbing peope!" Connor said, crossing his arms and glaring at Dave.
"Why not?" Asked Dave, as he nudged Connor playfully. "You scared?"
"No I'm not. But robbing people is wrong!" Connor snapped at him. "It's like my mother always said: It's better to get hurt, then to hurt others." He smiled at the thought of his mother. God, did he hate himself right now. His mother and father must be so worried right now.
"Alright." Dave sighed as he closed his eyes. "Let's just go."
Connor and Dave were about to walk further into town, until they saw something in the corners of their eyes. They saw a small shop, walking towards it, they looked through the window and saw heaven on Earth.
"Is this what I think it is?" Dave asked.
"I think it is." Connor replied.
They looked at each other and smiled. "Pawn shop!" They exclaimed in union. They quickly ran into the shop and were greeted by two men; wearing some kind of tuxedo, with a black bow tie. The tuxedo's were a mixed color of vertical light blue stripes, and vertical white stripes. They wore white jeans and white shoes. One of the two men had a big, red mustache. The other had no facial hair. Their hair was a mixture of red and white.
"Welcome to the grand opening of the Flim Flam brothers--."
"Yeah, yeah." Dave interrupted the two men. "So, what do you guys sell?"
"Everything!" Said one of the men. He grabbed hold of Dave's hand and shook it roughly. "My name is Flam, welcome to our shop!"
"My name is Dave, and I would appreciate it if you could let go of my hand!" Dave replied.
Flam smiled at him and let go of his hand. "What are you looking for? A guitar? A toy clown? A toy clown playing a guitar?"
"No, we were actually looking for a place to sleep." Dave joked.
Flim and Flam started laughing, patting Dave's shoulders.
"You're a funny one!" Flim laughed, nudging his brother. "Right?"
"He sure is!" Flam laughed as he looked at Connor, only for his laughter to stop as he watched the teen walk out the store. He walked up to Connor and spun him around, making him face him directly. "What's wrong?" He asked.
"Nothing." Connection replied, looking down at his feet. "I'm good."
"I can see you're lying." Flam said as he looked at Dave. "What's wrong with your friend?"
Dave couldn't help but smirk a bit. 'Time to see how good I can act.' He thought as he looked at Flam. "Listen, we've both been through a lot. Our parents died when we were young. We've been living with our grandmother and grandfather ever since. They took care of us, and when we were old enough, offered us to work at a nearby farm. They knew the owners very well, and we worked there for a very long time. But eventually, all good things must come to an end. The owners of the farm were old, very old. They couldn't handle the pressure of maintaining their farm."
"Then what happened?" Flam asked in curiosity, munching on some popcorn he had somehow found in the shop.
"Our school wasn't really a school with a good reputation. So, our grandmother and grandfather decided we needed to attend another school. And that's how we ended up here. Everything was going good and well, until our grandmother and grandfather passed away. So, with no money and no home. We stand here before you." Dave said as he started crying.
Connor could only watch in confusion and pure shock. He made all of that up, in mere seconds? How?
"That is the saddest thing I have ever heard!" Flam cried as he hugged his brother tightly. Dave joined the hug and together they wailed and cried.
The crying continued for a minute or two. Connor said nothing, he kept shaking his head over and over again. So Dave had told them a sad story, so what? It's not like it's going to make any difference. They're still stuck in this strange world. No one knows where they are. They're finished.
Suddenly, Flim and Flam broke the hug and looked at Dave. "Stay here and don't move! They said in union." They quickly ran to the counter and started whispering to each other.
"Dude, what the hell?" Connor hissed at Dave, slapping the back of his head. "What were you thinking? Our parents aren't dead! And we're not brothers!"
"Take it easy, dude." Dave whispered to his friend, putting his arm around Connor's shoulder. "If my plan works out as I want it to, then we don't have to worry about our 'problems' anymore."
"But it's wrong! It's fucked up!" Connor retorted as he slapped Dave's arm away.
"Don't be such a pussy, dude." Dave chuckled.
"Alright."
Connor and Dave both turned their heads towards the two brothers. Flim and Flam made their way over towards the two teens, whispering and giggling to each other.
"Your story is sad." Said Flim as he looked at Flam.
"Your dreams gone with a pop ." Flam said as he looked at Flim.
"But to help you out."
"We offer you job!"
Connor looked At the two brothers in confusion. "Uhm, I'm sorry but I didn't quite catch that."
Dave smacked his forehead. "Their offering us a job." He mumbled as he looked at Flim. "Right?"
Flim nodded. "Right as a basket full of apples! And we can even get you a place to sleep!"
Awesome!" Dave exclaimed as he embraced the two brothers in a hug. "When can we get started?"
"Well. "Flam said as he rubbed his chin in thought. "We'll take you upstairs, you'll be sleeping in the attic. It isn't much, but it's better than nothing. And I'm guessing you two have to go to school as well?"
Dave nodded. "Yes, sir!"
Flam smiled. "Good, then it's settled. You two will work a few hours after you come back from school, and you'll be working every Saturday!"
"Alright!" Dave beamed in excitement. "How much money do we make?"
"Well." Flim began. "There are the costs of letting you two sleep in the attic, plus transportation costs and the food you'll be eating, because we wouldn't want our new employees to starve." He said as he started counting out loud. "I think forty dollars a month will do."
"What?!" Dave shouted as he turned around, ready to leave the shop. "Well screw that! That's child abuse!"
"Dave, I don't think that's child abuse." Connor said as he followed his friend. "But it's the best we can get. I mean come on!" He exclaimed as he grabbed Dave by his shoulder, making him face him directly. "It's the best we can get."
Dave looked at his friend. Bowing his head in defeat, he sighed and looked at the two brothers. "Thank you for this amazing job, boss ."
"Now to fill in some paperwork." Flim said, turning to Flam.
"No way, I did it last time!" Flam said, crossing his arms. "You fill in the papers."
"There hasn't even been a last time! We opened four days ago!" Flim retorted as he grabbed his brother by his collar. "You do it."
"No, you do it!"
"No, you do it!"
"Oh my god, just fuck already!" Dave interrupted the two brothers. "How about we don't fill in any paperwork?" Dave suggested.
The two brothers looked at each other and nodded. "You're a smart one!" Said Flim, nudging Flam. "Smart, and funny!"
"Yes." Flam replied as he put his arms around the teen's shoulders. "Now to show you your room."
"Quick question." Dave said, looking at Flam. "How many beds are up in the attic?"
"Just one." Flam replied.
"Okay." Dave replied, smiling to himself. Only for his smile to disappear seconds later. "Wait, what?!"
Connor couldn't help but laugh nervously. Sleeping in a strange world, with two people you just met. And sharing a bed with your best friend? This was not going to be fun.

Have you ever done something so incredibly stupid, you would scowl yourself the day after? No? Well, this will probably the case for seventeen year old Conner and his best friend Dave. Having spent all of their weekends doing homework and playing video games, Dave decided to do somewhat different. Their first idea was to run through the neighborhood with an air horn, but that one was 'thrown away' seconds later. Their second idea was to get wasted. But since they were still under-aged, so that one was out of the question. Then came their (well, actually it was Dave's idea) third idea. Sneak out of your house and meet up at an old, abandoned barn near the edge of the forest. Then go into the forest, and hope that you don't get lost.
Saying Conner was not to fond of the idea, was putting it mildly. I mean, who would go into a huge forest at night? An idiot, that's who! Well, too bad for Conner. Because Dave was quite the idiot that would pull something like this of.
Conner tried to talk him out of it, but Dave, being the stubborn teen, told him to "Go fuck himself". And Conner, being the caring one of the two, decided he'd not let his best friend wander of into a forest at night. So he joined his friend on this little 'adventure'.
Darkness. That was the only thing Conner could see. Dave had called him a few minutes before he was leaving. Telling him that he was already at Tue barn. Conner tried to talk him out of it; one last time. But alas, Dave stubbornness was too strong. So, Conner was now walking through the forest. Having nothing but his flashlight, a jar full of Skittles, a flashlight, his diary, and a sketchbook. All neatly placed in his Eastpack, backpack. And let's not forget about his trusty I-phone. Letting out a sigh of relief as he saw a dim light, only a few meters away from him. He called out to Dave and was relieved when he saw the black haired teen run towards.
'Damn, he's running really fast.' Conner thought as he slowly stopped walking. 'He's running * really** fast.'*
"Conner!" Dave exclaimed as he hugged his best friend. "I'm scared, bruh." Dave whispered as he let go of his friend. "I'm scared."
"You're scared, bruh?" Conner pouted as he looked up at the sky. "I get the meme." Conner said as he looked at his friend. "You know, you're pretty ugly."
"And you're a nerd!" Dave laughed as he put his arm around his friend's shoulders. "So, did your parents notice you sneaking out of house?" Dave asked, looking at Conner with a serious expression on his face.
"Nope." Conner replied as he removed Dave's arm from his shoulders. "They were fast asleep." He laughed.
"Parents are so dumb." Dave said as he turned around and put his hands on his hips. "Today is the day we are going to champion!" Dave shouted.
"Dude, keep your voice down!" Conner ordered, putting a hand over Dave's mouth. Only for Dave to lick his palm. "Dude, that's disgusting!" Conner said in disgust as he wiped the saliva from his palm, on Dave's black t-shirt.
Dave's expression turned into one of disgust a well. "That doesn't taste too good." Dave muttered as he looked at Conner. "Did you wash your hands before you left the bathroom?"
"Uhh.. I think not." Conner replied with a awkward smile.
"Now that's gross!" Dave retorted as he licked his t-shirt, trying to get the disgusting flavor of his tongue.
Conner patted his friend on his back. "There, there. Let it all out, buddy." He said comfortingly.
"Fuck you." Dave replied as he pushed him away. Dave shook his head and started walking away from Conner, and further into the forest. Conner quickly caught up with him and nudged him. "What?" Dave asked angrily.
"You mad bruh? Conner laughed, receiving an elbow in his side. He clutched his side in pain, but kept on laughing. "Hi, I'm Dave and I've got piss in my mouth!" Conner laughed.
"I'm Conner and I piss over my own hands!" Dave retorted, grabbing his flashlight from his pocketed and turning it on. "Alright, come and get us Slenderman." He said with much confidence.
A loud crack could be heard, echoing though the forest, and eventually reaching the ears of the two teens.
"The fuck?!" Dave screamed as he jumped into Conner's arms. Conner quickly caught his friend as they both looked around themselves. After a few seconds of fright, Conner casually dropped Dave on the ground. Dave quickly got up as rubbed his butt in pain. "Why'd you do that?" He asked, but it sounded more like a grunt of pain, than a question.
"That's simple." Connor replied as he patted Dave's head. "I like ladies, not men. I'm not gay, dude."
"Hey, that's racist!" Dave said as he poked Conner's shoulder. "Wait? Gay people aren't a race, well they are humans, but it's not racist right?" Dave asked himself.
Conner rubbed his temples and sighed. "Here we go again. Dave and his never ending questions."
"So if they aren't a race, then what should it be called? Gaycist? Nah, that's even worse."
Dave kept on pondering his ideas, while continuously walking through the forest. Conner could only watch in amusement as Dave tried to solve his own theory. This could go on for house. If Dave couldn't find the right answer for something, he would make up his own. That's probably why he failed biology so many times. But still, being around him when he made up all those theories was really amusing. And to be honest, Dave probably thought the same.
"Wait, I think I got it!" Dave said as he turned around to face Conner. "So gay people aren't a race. They're some sort of community, but only really big! So, if someone calls someone else gay, then the person should say: That's communist! " Dave said. He started praising himself for being so smart, only for realization to hit him like a freight train. "Wait, I just said something really dumb, didn't I?" He asked Conner. Conner grinned and nodded.
"Yep, you said something really dumb!" Conner chuckled, putting his hand on Dave's shoulder. "But it always seems to amuse me. So in my eyes, you said something.. Less dumb?" Conner said as he looked off into the far distance. Dark. Yep, he couldn't see anything.
"Well, at least it was 'less '." Dave shrugged as he heard another loud crack. "Fuck! Why are you doing this to me, forest?" He whined.
"Trees don't like you, dude." Conner replied
"Conner, you're an assignment." Dave said, pointing his finger in an accusing way at his friend.
"I'm a what?" Conner asked in confusion.
"You're assignment." Dave replied.
"What kind of insult is that?" Conner asked.
Dave shrugged as he picked up a branch that lay in front of him. "When I don't know what to say, I just say the first thing that comes up my mind." Dave replied, throwing the branch against a nearby tree. "That's what you get, tree! You don't scare me!"
Conner shook his head and grabbed Dave by his collar. "Come on, let's just walk back. There's nothing to do here, and we're already off track." Conner said as he looked up at the sky. "Beautiful." He whispered, seeing the night sky, painted with the stars that shined brightly through the darkness. It made him feel at peace.
"Yeah, but kind of racist." Dave added as he got out of Conner's grip. "All that black sky, and those white stars. Racist, right?" Dave asked.
Aaand peace is gone.
Conner stood there, his mouth open and one of his eyes twitching slightly. "How do you come up with these things?"
Dave shrugged. "It just pops up in my head. I can't help it. I say what I think." Dave replied.
"Alright, what are you thinking of now?" Ramses asked.
"Chickens."
"And now?"
"Boobs."
"Good one. And now?"
"Dicks."
"Really?"
"Nope." Dave replied
Suddenly, another crack could be heard. But this one was much louder than the previous ones. Dave screamed again as he clenched his fists in anger. "I swear to god, these trees are going to get it!" He said through gritted teeth.
"What are you going to do? Kick their tree asses?"Connor laughed.
"Nope." Dave replied, walking to do nearby tree and spitting at it. "I spit on you, peasant!"
Connor could not contain his laughter. These were the moments he treasured the most. Laughing his ass of, together with his best friend. Connor watched as Dave kept spitting at several trees. Eventually Dave got tired from all the spitting; or he was out of spit. Either way, Dave quickly walked to Connor and sighed.
"You know, I'm not even sure what we are supposed to do here." Dave said as he looked off into the far distance. "Let's just walk back, and go home. He sighed again."
Suddenly, another loud crack could be heard.
"Fuck me right in the ass!" Dave exclaimed, running behind Connor. "Take him; he has more fat on his body!" He said as he grabbed hold of Connor's chest. "Look, he's even got boobs! Men boobs to be precise."
"Hey!" Connor said, turning around and grabbing hold of Dave's chest. "Yours are way bigger than mine. And I'm not fat, I work out and am pretty muscular!" He said, squishing Dave's chest. "Yep, probably a C-cup."
"Fuck you." Dave said, slapping Connor's hands away. "And don't touch my body!"
"You know." Connor said, looking up at the trees. "Those cracks are getting louder and louder. I wonder what could be causing them."
Dave started to chuckle, his chuckling turned into a fit of laughter. Connor looked at his friend in confusion.
"What's wrong with you?" Connor asked.
"I was just thinking about something." Dave replied.
"What were you thinking of?" Connor asked, a hint of curiosity in his voice.
"I'll tell you later." Dave replied, catching his breath. He regained his composure and put his hands on his hips. "Well, let's get going. I don't want to--."
Dave was interrupted by yet another crack. He clenched his fists again and looked at Connor. "I swear to god, whatever animal is causing those cracks. If I get my hands on it, then--."
"Dude look out!" Connor exclaimed as he tackled his friend to the ground. They both looked over to the spot they were just standing in. A large tree branch had fallen down. Had Connor not reacted so quickly, they'd probably be injured, badly.
"Dude, you're a freaking Jedi!" Dave exclaimed as he hugged his friend tightly. "But that tackle though."
"I know, I'm awesome." Connor replied.
"Sure, rub it in." Dave snorted. He looked up, hearing a familiar sound. Connor, having heard the sound too, looked up as well.
"You've got to be kidding." Connor sighed.
"For fucks sake." Dave added.
With no time to jump out of the way, an even bigger tree branch landed on top of them, crushing them underneath its weight. Feeling their bodies being crushed, Connor and Dave's closed. Their visions fading. So, this was the end? Being crushed by a tree. Well, that could have ended better.
"I... Like.. Turtles" Dave said in pain.
"Fuck.. You.. Dave." Conner replied, also in pain. Leave it up to Dave to lighten up the mood.
And so, from that day forward, the lives of two teens abruptly came to an end. They didn't finish school. They never went to prom. They never got laid. Never had the opportunity to do something great with their lives. So was their death a relief, perhaps. Well, life can be a strange thing. Let's see what life has in store for these two idiots.

Sunset Shimmer walked through the crowded hallways of Canterlot High. She kept a straight face, knowing that students would glare at her. They hadn't forgotten the 'incident'. Letting out a sigh of relief as she reached the repetition classroom, she grabbed the doorknob and twisted it. She opened the door and stepped inside.
"Hey girls." Sunset greeted her five friends. Probably her only friends.
"Hey Sunset!" Greeted Pinkie Pie as she hugged her tightly. "How are you doing?"
Sunset hugged her back. "Well, it's the same like everyday. Students that still hate me for what I've done. Making it through the day, with the occasional insults."
"Who's insulting you?" Asked Rainbow Dash, cracking her knuckles. "Want me to have a talk with them?"
Sunset shook her head. "No, no. That would just make things worse."
"Well sugarcube, if yer ever in need of any help, you know where to find us." Said Applejack, putting a comforting hand on Sunset's shoulder.
"Pinkie, could you let go, please?" Sunset asked politely.
"No, you're sad. I want to see you smile." Pinkie replied, hugging her even tighter.
"I'm not sad, Pinkie." Sunset said as she slowly pushed Pinkie of her. "I'm just.. Disappointed."
"Disappointed?" Rainbow Dash repeated. "Disappointed in who?"
Sunset started at her hands, before replying. "In myself."
"What do you mean, darling?" Asked Rarity, a hint of curiosity in her voice.
I let my jealousy take the better of me. I was Celestia's personal student. I had everything, but I wanted more. And because I was jealous, mean, and greedy, I turned into something horrific. Sunset replied, closing her eyes and letting out a sigh. Okay, now we was beginning to get sad.
Suddenly, Sunset felt a set of bodies surrounding her. Opening her eyes, she saw that her friends had embraced her into a hug. W-Wha? Sunset said I'm confusion.
"You're our friend." Fluttershy whispered.
"We watch out for each other, no matter what." Rarity said.
"We don't care what happened in the past." Rainbow Dash said.
"'Cause that's in the past." Applejack added.
"We all love you very much, Sunset." Pinkie said.
"Girls." Sunset said, tears forming in her eyes. "I love you too. All of you." She said as she hugged them back.
But somewhere, deep in her heart. Sunset wished that she would befriend someone. Someone who had no idea of what she had done, and what she had become. She wanted someone who wouldn't judge her. Who wouldn't care what other people say. But, that was never going to happen.. Right?
