After getting the things they would need for a 'Rescue' (Make sure that the heroes stay gone for good) plan, Bob, Wily, and Bass (who didn’t know that they were going to trap the good guys in the other universe) went with Nate to the light camp, meeting Ran and Mike on the way.
"Ok Nate, show us where the machine is." Bob told the yellow robot, who pointed at the fairly large machine sitting in the middle of the room.
"I find it hard to believe you’re going to help the guys." Mike said.
"I find it hard you made it into this fic." Wily said under his breath.
"I find it hard to believe I haven’t died in six yea-" at that very moment, a bird decided to poop at the very spot Ran was standing. "...we never speak of this. Ever."
"Well anyway, I find it gets boring without a challenge to my evil." bob said.
"It is?" Wily asked.
"And besides, what if Capcom calls us agai-"
Yeah they just cancelled an announcement about a game. You think they’re gonna call you guys anytime soon?
"...what the fu-"
"-ck my life..." The sighed in the pony dimension. "So let me get this straight...you guys are video game characters..." she pointed at Mega, Proto, Roll and Dr.Light.
"We are?" Mega asked.
"Shut up Rock. Adults are talking."
"And you two are comic characters from a daily online web strip from 6 years ago..."she pointed to George and Chadling.
"And famous ones at that."
"...that’s it. I finally cracked. It took me two years, but I finally went crazy with the rest of you."
"What about tha Smarty Pants incident?" the orange one asked.
"Whatever, just...just let me think for a moment."
Chuckling, the orange pony turned to our heroes. "Don’t mind her, Twilight's a 'if it doesn’t make sense, it shouldn’t exist' kind of pony. Ah'm Applejack by the way."
"Whoa whoa whoa back up! Your name is Applejack?" Mega asked.
"Uh...yeah. Has been for 19 years."
"...do you taste like cerea-" a slap from Protoman shut him up. "Don’t mind Megaman. He’s an idiot. No really. He was built to be an idiot."
"He never seemed like an idiot in the games." The rainbow maned one said, earning a few looks. "What? I used to like those games."
"Maybe we should all introduce ourselves." Roll said, getting tired of wondering what the ponies’ names were.
"Well, tha rainbow maned one there is Rainbow Dash.
"Sup"
"The prissy white one is Rarity, and the pink one next to her is Pinkie Pie.
"Hiya! I used to read your comic every day, but then it stopped so I decided to keep it alive for the fans and by the way is Dave with you guys?"
"Pinkie, you're frightening the purple one."
"His names C1-14D-L1N6." Pinkie told Rarity.
"I prefer Chadling."
"Right, anyway, that Pegasus hidin behind her mane is Fluttershy."
"Let me guess." Protoman deadpanned. "She's really shy."
"Deathly so, and the baby dragon is Spike."
"...really. Of all the names you could have...you get Spike?" Roll said, thoroughly unimpressed.
"Your name is a pun." Spike shot back.
"So is yours."
"Argue later, and tha purple Unicorn tryin to keep herself calm is Twilight Sparkle."
"OOOOH...that must be awkward when someone talking about the blood fairy book." Dr. Light said, genuinely sorry for the unicorn.
"They aren’t fairies! They’re Vampires" Rarity defended.
"Lady...Vampires don’t sparkle in the sunlight. Well, maybe a little, but then it’s usually followed by bursting into flames. So they're blood fairies."
Scoffing, she turned to roll. "So Roll...what’s with...your ensemble?"
"...you mean my armor? Well, we were supposed to be going to the real world to...persuade a few Capcom execs to finish a game."
"...um... I don’t think that’s very nice of you. I mean, you seemed so nice in the games..."
"I never really spoke."
"But in-"
Better cut you off there flutters, they only went up to shortly after MM7 in their world.
"...I know you all heard that." Twilight said in a strained voice, a few strands of hair poking up.
Sure did. Hi. Writer here. Just here to clear up a few things. And maybe change a few things as well.
"Oh *** no." Twilight said, the gasped at what she just said. "What the Fuck!? Why am I so at ease with Cursing all of a sudde-" she then got a bar of soap shoved up her mouth by Pinkie.
"Bad Twilight bad! We can’t be pottymouths, Little Girls are-"
Pinkie, it’s just a few bronies. No little kids here.
"Oh thank Celestia" She said, before grabbing a pack of cigarettes from nowhere, shocking the others. "What, you guys think I stay this cheery all the time?" she said to the audience (wave by the way, they totally notice everything you guys say and do...)
"Um...but what if..."
"Fluttershy, dear..."
"Oh yes Rarity?"
"Drop the act; if it’s just them then we can be ourselves."
"...it’s not an act."
Rarity it’s really not an act. Well, before shit gets outta hand, imma go check the others
George did a double take "Wait wha-"
So...made any progress with that machine Wily?
"...Writer...you realize you cut Bob off right?
Yeah so?
"You do know he's fuming right?
Eh, Ran's here, so he should be burning off his hate on-
"WRITER ILL KILL YOU!"
Nutbunnies. AND THEN BOB CALMED THE **** DOWN.
"...I hate fan fiction now." Bob, now completely calm, said.
Good for you, I’m just here to speed things up a bit so you guys can go join everyone else.
"Are you sure you should be tampering with your story so much Writer?" ran asked.
...yes. And then Ran got hit with lightning.
"...you’re a dick."
I know. And then Ran got hit by lightning again.
Meanwhile in the ponyverse....
"Soo...the persona you guys show on the screen are fake?"
"Well, fer most of us it is." Aj said. "Ah'm like this most of the time, as is Fluttershy and Spike, who are dating by the way. Rainbow and Rarity are flaming lesbians and Ah you'd be surprised who the pants are..."
"It’s not me..." Rainbow said quietly.
"And we aren’t against watching either..."
"WHOO HOO!" the trio of Idiocy and Dr. Light cheered, happy that there was a source of endless porn close to them now.
"And Twilight and Pinkie are actually pretty foul mouthed, ones the potty variety..."
"**** you, you know we aren’t like this, why are you playing al-." AND THEN TWILIGHT BECAME A MUTE WHO RARELY SPOKE BUT WHEN SHE DID IT USUALLY HAD AT LEAST ONE EXPLETIVE IN IT.
"The others a smoker."
"Eh...whatever. It’s not as bad as you think it is."
"Wait, but what about the thing for the story, you know, following Season 3 and all..." Spike called to everyone (and ponies) attention.
"Then we just do it but don’t go in character." Aj reasoned.
"Well, I’m just worried that Bob will..." George began to say before he looked outside." OH GOD THE BACKGROUND IS CHANGING TO RED! HE'S HERE! EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF! AHHHHHHH!!!"
After a few moments, Pinkie put out her cigarette. "I just realized that joke only got used once. And we don’t even have a background; it’s just a sunset..."
Back in Acapulco, the rest of the BnG cast was ready to go. Almost.
"You’re absolutely certain that if I die, I won’t be dead for good?" Ran asked.
If I did that...what do you think the audience would do to me?
"He has a good point Ran." Mike said.
Mike on the other hand....
"Oh come on! There’s at least one fan out there...right...guys..."
...no one’s answering Mike. I could do it right now and no one would care.
"Writer, I’m sure you can do so at anytime, but for now, how about getting us to the plot point?"
...every party needs a pooper that’s why we invited you...party pooper...party pooper...
"Writer..." Bob in an exasperated tone"...hurry up."
Hang on a moment, Bass isn’t-
"Done"
Oka, hit it Wily!
Wily then pressed a large red button on the console of the machine, causing it to spark to life. The middle of it began to coalesce energy, forming a wormhole to the dimension that they were sure the others went to.
"I swear to god, if this takes us back in time, someone’s dying." Bob said, echoed by everyone else.
Hey, I’m a dick, but I’m not that much of a dick. Just go on through. I'll see ya on the other side.
And so, the group left Acapulco for the last time...if only they knew that it would begin the weirdest part of their lives yet.
