Earth
America
1958 A.D
1 year after the Crystal Skull
Indy was lying down in his bed, smiling. So far, he enjoyed his life. He has a loving, caring, tough wife. He has a son, to which he can play with. He has an actual life. Every so often, he started to think and reflect on the people he met, the lives he affected, the things no ordinary or sane man can say he's ever seen or done.

So far in his life, he survived God's wrath against the Third Reich with his wife, hypnosis as well as voodoo from a insane cult with his friend... and a singer ('Seriously, why did I bring her?' he thought), drank from the holy grail, saved his father in the process, and finding a Crystal Skull from Inter-Dimensional Aliens (Ox said, 'Inter-Dimensional Beings' but they were aliens, never the less).

Indy's favorite moment he could reflect on was meeting a strange pegasus named Daring Do. Just like he was looking for the Medallion of Light, and she was looking for the Medallion of Darkness. They switched plans, in a unknown world. All he knew was that it was called Equestria with him clutching the Medallion of Darkness. The side effect of switching places with her was having her foreign memories. 

As he went through the dense jungle of Equestria, he fought against the cultist again. This time, they wanted a being of darkness to lead them. He also had to fight against a unicorn named Silver Trowel, who was working for Ahuizotl, an enemy of Daring.

Indy did return back to his home planet with his memories intact, and him holding the Medallion. However, he found out that the medallion itself became the Medallion of Light and Darkness. He decided to keep it as a keepsake, not knowing where it would go if he gave it to the government. 'It would probably end up in Warehouse 51 like the Ark did.' Indy thought. At least it was out of reach from the rest of the world.

Anyways, the events confused him afterward, considering the strange events that almost followed afterward.

He decided to sleep again. While wondering what the future might hold, dreaming of his adventures, the medallion in his bedside drawer started to glow.

Equestria
958 C.R.
Daring was lying in bed, thinking of all the strange adventures she had. She met a time traveling alien (who looked like a Earth pony, and he prefered 'Mad Colt in a Blue Box'), she met a pegasus with a Rainbow colored mare (who was acting strange) and she remember fighting against Ahuizotl and prevent him from getting the sapphire statue.

Her favorite one (besides meeting the pegasus) was meeting a very strange and mythological creature called a "Human". His name was Indiana Jones ('At least that's what his friends and enemies call him.' she thought). He was... interesting, and was a professor at Medfield College.

He was adventurous, and both were looking for something. Just like she was looking for the Medallion of Darkness, he was looking for the Medallion of Light. She switched places and ended up in a unknown world. She was in some kind of country, but she knew that she was still on Earth, just not hers. She also found out that she held in her hoof, the Medallion of Light.

The side effects of switching places with him was having his foreign memories. As she went through the dense jungle on Earth, she fought against Nazis from the Third Reich and dealt with a manic traitor who was named, Richard Brooks, a old friend of Indy's, before he realized that he was a traitor.

Daring did return home with her memories intact and the Medallion. The Medallion though in itself, had changed into the Medallion of Light and Darkness, just like Indy's. She decided to keep it as a keepsake, just to remember her adventure on Earth, and the events that happened.

What confused her was the evens after her journey.

She decided to sleep on it. As she slept, remembering her adventures, the medallion in her bedside drawer started to glow.



Indy...            Daring...

A voice was calling out to the two archeologist, as they slept. A friendly, yet unfamiliar voice. It felt strange for that to happen to them.
Wake up...

Both soon opened their eyes, seeing nothing but whiteness. They soon realized that they weren't home, or in their pj's. They weren't even anywhere. They soon sat up, seeing that they were in their clothing. The most important thing was that they didn't noticed each other. They soon noticed that along to them wearing their proper clothing for each species, was the Medallions worn around their necks. They soon noticed each other, sitting behind them.

"Indy?" "Daring?" A smile soon started to form on their faces, then they hugged, like old friends that haven't seen each other in years. Then they heard the voice again.

Guys... Over here...

They stopped hugging, releasing each other from their grasp, then looked towards the sound. They soon spotted two red leather armchairs, sitting there. They soon walked towards it, seeing the chairs with more detail. They soon noticed the glass coffee table sitting there and a different, squarish, arm chair. Both recognized it as an recliner. They didn't noticed it at first, for it was blended into the background.

They soon sat down in the armchairs, confused on why they were here. "Hello?" Daring said, looking around. "Anybody there?" Indy said, looking around as well. It appeared that no one was coming, when suddenly, they heard the sound of a door being opened. They quickly looked around, confused. They then looked up, seeing a square black hole. Soon, a figure fell out of the hole, dropping from above, landing in the recliner.

Soon, the door closed, and the boy brushed himself off. He started muttering something under his break, something about 'breaking arms and legs' and 'pain in the butt'. He wore a red bowtie with a light blue jacket, but the shoes were converse. his pants were a dark green, and had on white gloves. He appeared to be a young male, and yet he looked like some animated character, almost cartoon-like. His glasses were perched on his nose and he had light brown hair. It was messy, spiky, and he was in a good mood. (AN: Alright, you jokers know who darn well it is.)

He looked at his guest, then smiled at them. "Wanna see a trick?" he said. Both Indy and Daring looked at each other, then back at the stranger. "I didn't hear a no." he said, smiling wider. He then pulled out a 9V (9-Volt) battery. "This is a 9 Volt battery. A battery stores energy and releases it into something like say a flashlight." he said. He then stuck out his tongue, holding the battery near it. Both knew that this was a bad idea (Even though Daring had no idea what a battery was). He then placed his tongue on the tips of the batteries.

There was a zap, as sparks flew from his hand that held the battery. He pulled, causing his tongue to stretch longer from his mouth. Both archeologist had seen a lot in their years, but never had they witnessed Cartoon Physics before, by a living toon (somewhat). He then somehow pulled the battery off his tongue, to which his tongue retracted like a window shade. He then blew a smoke ring. He looked up seeing the smoke ring float past the two, then he smiled at them. "Smokin'." he exclaimed.

He then tossed the batter behind him, then leaned in forward, making him appear more serious. "Indiana Jones and Daring Do. The two great heroes who walked between worlds. I've come here to warn you and to help you... slightly." he said. Both had questions as they looked at him. "Who are you?" Indy said. "What are you?" Daring said. He booth looked at them, then said, "That's not important. What's important is the cosmic balance between your worlds." he said.

Both were surprised by the way he spoke, the weight that he seemed to emphasize, as if it was important, which it was. He, let's call him The Character, pulled a large tea set from behind his back, and settled it on the coffee table. On the metal tea tray, was a teapot, and three tea cups on saucers. It also had a sugar bowl, and a creamer pitcher.

"Please, have a drink." he said. As soon as he said that, without him touching them or the teapot, it suddenly started to fill up full of tea.

The Character then pulled out from behind his back a ventriloquist dummy. He then poured himself a cup of tea, added creamer, and a couple of lumps of sugar. His pointer finger suddenly changed shape and material, into a teaspoon. He soon stirred his tea, then he placed in his mouth, only to pull back out his finger. He then started to drink his tea.  Then, the dummy started to talk and move, as if it was alive. "Both of you are in grave danger. The Third Reich has awaken from a frozen slumber, and the Shadow Cult will bring you to your doom."

The Character spat out the tea in surprise, then looked at the dummy. The dummy just shrugged at him, to which The Character then tossed the dummy behind him, which landed in a audible crash. He finished his tea, then muttered something under his breath. He then looked at them, seeing their confused looks on their faces. "If you guys didn't understand a word he said, let me give it to you straight." he said, adjusting his bowtie.

He then cleared his throat, and began to speak. "Apparently, the Third Reich figured out cryogenics in secret, so they froze their best soldiers in their prime and set them to thaw out after the war. They however mis-calculated and they been frozen, till this week. As for that religion, the ponies who did survive the fight from the Dark Temple left and formed a new cult called the Nightmare Moon Order." The Character said. Both gulped, hearing all or this. They didn't like their odds.

The Character, seeing the nervousness in their eyes, sighed, then said, " Look, you two right now are the only hope in the entire multiverse, because right now there are others who are too busy on their universes to help you. So right now, you two are the only ones that can help each other, and remember... you guys aren't alone." Indy and Daring thought about what he said, then remembered some of their friends from back home. "Unfortunately, there is a side effect of having each other's worlds. I fixed that memory problem, in fact improved it... kinda."

"I however didn't, and couldn't change THE side effect. Look on the bright side, it may come in handy in the future." he said. Both archeologist were confused at what he said, until they looked at each other.

That's when they realized what THE side effect was.

Daring was wearing her usual pit helmet and shirt, but now she had cargo shorts, and boots. Her form had changed from pegasus to human.

Indy had lost his pants and shoes, but he still had his fedora, jacket, and shirt. He also had his leather bag with him and his whip nearby. On his flank was his cutie mark which was a compass and a whip.

Both looked at each other once more, before looking back at The Character. "What happened to us?" Indy said. "What was in our tea?" Daring said. He looked at both of them, then said, "One, it's British Tea. Good stuff I'll tell ya," he said, getting confused look from their faces. "And Two, This is the side effect that I was kinda, sorta, trying to warn you about. Apparently, I was too discreet.

He then smiled at them, then said, "Hopefully Dr. Jones and Dr. Do, we will meet again." he said. They were confused, when suddenly, they started to move away from him. "Good luck to the both of you!" The Character said, as they were thrusted back into reality.

They heard his 'Good Luck!' echo, as they saw each other fade into darkness... then everything faded into black.
