Exhausted from their recent escapades in the Rub' al Khali desert, newly retired treasure hunters Nathan Drake and Victor "Sully" Sullivan decide to take a much needed "guy's week out" vacation, but they find themselves in truly uncharted territory when they arrive in the lands of Equestria instead. It honestly wouldn't be that bad, really. Plenty of sun, friendly locals, and oh yeah, a mysterious relic that's eluded adventurers for over a millennium.
What more could a retired treasure hunter want?
**Rated Teen for language and Sullivan's dirty humor**
**Written within the same world as "Engineering an Alicorn."**

Chapters (4)
Grumman Goose, eh? Why's that familiar? Hah, there was one used in a 1982 TV show called Tales of the Gold Monkey. I have no idea who Nathan Drake is beyond being in a clip used in the second Pony Anthology on Youtube. And on further research I find he's from Uncharted
Wow, a "First" for me, huh?
1191861 hmm, i assume you haven't played the PS3 games? they're good... dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/misc_Lyra.png
1191885 I don't even have a PS3.
I like this, played the games. And my favorite aircraft included, can't wait for more.
YES FINALLY SOMEONE DID THIS
Oh and it's even well written! Perfect!
A very well written story involving Nathan Drake & Sully? Fuck yeah.
1191899 You don't? It's a shame, you're missing out.
If you have the time, check these out. Some guy took all 3 Uncharted games and basically turned them into movies, since they were pretty Hollywood-esque to begin with. If you have a day free, and feel like it, check them out.
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception
1198097 Thanks. I'll check them out.
reznov! create the next chapter dammit you slowpoke and lazyflank do it you losing my boredom!
Well whadda you know, I actually got around to it! Not really. Been working on this thing since I shipped out the first bit, rather difficult considering most, if not all, of it was written between the hours of 9pm to midnight.

Honestly, I think I've built up an immunity to caffine with how much I've had in the past week. Time to move to ginseng!
Anyway, this is how I'll be structuring any notes I may have on a chapter (I feel splicing them in at the bottom kind of rips you from the moment).
Enjoy!
Is that mare at the end Lyra? Just asking.
Great chapter by the way. Hopefully, we'll see more of Nate dealing with being in Equestria soon enough.
Ok, this story has potential to be awesome as much as it does to crash and burn harder Nate's flight aboard the cargo plane into the Rub 'al Kali Desert did. I'm going to follow for the chance that it turns out to the former.
Yeeesss moar pls
I WOULD PROBABLY READ THIS IF I HAD A PS3 AND PLAYED THIS GAME.... but I don't and I haven't so I won't.

1268715 I Think This IS Going To Happen Sooner Or Later puu.sh/14XVI
Well, this is interesting.
I look forward to seeing where this goes.
Now this is new and interesting. Please, continue
"im not a lizard im a dragon.... i dont do that tongue thing" :P unintended refrence? xD anywho unlike most HIE fics i find this fic fantastically done so far (none of that, subdue strange creatures first ask questions later schtik that fact ALONE makes this a fave for me ^w^) the pacing is top notch as well :D upvote fave/tracking from me! drake is a pretty badass character so if done right this will surely be a memorable experience ^w^ i cant wait for more!
It is looking good so far. But I do think they eat more than pie and grass in ponyvile.
Just saying.
Yep.
I'm personally a fan of Uncharted, and you've captured Sully's, Drake's, and i guess Applejack's personality perfectly.
YES!!! GIVE ME MOAR!!!
good job! thank you for joining my group of video game crossovers alicorn avionics!

given big likes and favorites to whoever on my group makes mirrors edge powerup heroes andkameo elements of power,my most liked game ever since i was born in the 2000's.
i love this story because it seems on this second chapter the shitstorm gets bigger and bigger...
FUCK YEAH!!!!!
sorry.
Twilight... is going to try to find out how a gun works? HA! Good luck with that, Twi!
seriously though, any plans on the next chapter?
1764894 I was wondering when people would begin to ask this...
Yes, the third chapter is in development, although it seems I've developed a bad case of Valve Syndrome (inability to create a third installment in a timely manner).
Part of that's from life getting in the way, the usual "I'm working, I've school, blah, blah, blah...," but it's also from me severely underestimating the absolute scale of the story line. I should've known something related to Uncharted would take more than a few chapters at 3,000 words apiece. It's like I began building a DC-3 and now it looks like it'll end up as the Spruce Goose! (Size comparison)
I'm working to keep the plot line of U: VV true to what has been seen within the Uncharted series, as the way the huge mysteries of the games were tied into history was the big "wow" factor for me. I've already found a terrific piece of human history to fit the bill, and I'm working ties into Equestrian history as well. With something of this scale and detail, I've found that I can't fly by the seat of my pants through this one.
I sincerely apologize for the long delay, but I cannot put a time-stamp on when the third chapter will be out.
1766709 It is okay if you are late with any chapter, because hopefully, it would have been worth the weight.
LOVE the game and to the story a big fat juicy LOLZ
Nice job on keeping both Sully and Nate in their roles! I really like this story and cant wait for more.
Let's see... perfect characters... Albert and Costello reference... funny lines...
I would have to say this is the best Uncharted crossover I've ever read. I really look forward to reading more.
I am thoroughly enjoying this.
OH GOD, THE ABBOT AND COSTELLO JOKE!!! GENIUS!!!
Definitely one of the best Uncharted crossovers on the site.
So many implications in one simple sentence. Well done...
Also:
Good to see this update!
Upvote just because I can rape you on multiplayer.
Just kidding
Is 12... Lyra? ... No... No, must be imagining things...
This is really great. I love a good Uncharted crossover. Also, FIRST! Ha!
Never played Uncharted, have no PS3, crap, now I have to watch a YouTube playthrough to read this.
Hmm, anyone ever notice that the "up vote/people who've read" this ratio on a lot of fics is about 1/10?
Mares in Black?
1274770 That or "What's the worst that could happen?"... and the answer is always...
EVERYTHING!!
2199331 12 is Lyra and 09 is Cheerilee. I am very good at noticing these things, but frankly it's pretty obvious when you look at the big picture
2199537 no you don't
i think Bon-Bon is this 12 pony
I don't know how it could be Lyra or Bon-Bon...then again I could be wrong but personally I think it would be more likely if it was Octavia for some reason...
its good to see this great cross over getting updated its really good (^^)v cant wait till theres more!
One of the editors for this story used to edit mine, then he suddenly vanished. And here I thought he died of cardiac arrest. Turns out hes been working on other things.
When's the next update!?
