In the darkness of a Minnesotan apartment laid a man who's fought both robots and entities. A man who can survive monstrosities and come back (mostly) unscathed. A man who wears a purdy hat, and bought a magic gun!
Ring... Ring.. Ring... Beep!
"Hello?" The man asked, fighting back a yawn as he held his cell phone.
"Are you awake Linkara?" The other man on the phone asked.
"Nostalgia Critic? Why the hell are you calling at three in the morning!?!" Linkara yelled.
"Good to see that you're awake," The Nostalgia Critic said. "The reason why I called you is simple: you know that field that's near that hotel where we do crossovers?"
"Yes; why?" Linkara asked.
"Well, I need both you and Joe to come over there around noon," The Nostalgia Critic said.
"How am I going to get there? That place is in Phoenix, Arizona!" Linkara argued, clearly not amused by the call at so early hours.
"You could either drive there or take a plane." Answered The Nostalgia Critic.
"Will you be paying for my ticket?"
"Fuck no! Use your own money, you leech!" The Nostalgia Critic replied.
"Fine. I'll see you around noon." Said Linkara and ended the call.
"POLLO! GET MY HAT AND JACKET! I HAVE A FLIGHT TO CATCH!"
Meanwhile in a house somewhere in Austin, Texas....
"Get some Joe!" a voiced yelled filled with triumph.
"GOD DAMMIT JOE! How do you keep beating me at this?" Yelled the second voice.
"It's simple Joe: you just suck at Skullgirls." Answered Joe.
"Best seventy-six out of one-fifty?" The second voice known as Other Joe asked.
"You're on!" Yelled Joe as he grabbed his controller, but then something stopped him...
Ring... Ring... Ring... Beep!
"Hello?" asked Joe.
"What's up Joe!" The voice on the cell said.
"What's up Critic!" Joe answered.
"You know that hotel we usually go to?"
"Of course! Why?" Joe asked.
"I need you to go to that field near it by noon," The Nostalgia Critic answered.
"If I don't?"
"You'll be fired."
"Fine. I'll go to it." Answered Joe.
"...Really?"
"Yea. What's wrong?"
"It's just that Linkara was bitching about how to get there." Explained the Critic.
"I know how to get there. I'll see you at noon," Joe answered before hanging up.
The Nostalgia Critic smiled as he adjusted his cap looking around the field. It was decorated with fresh, green grass and tall, young oak trees.
He looked over at his watch as it read 11:59. They had one more minute to get over here, or else....
A lightning fast object smacked into the Nostalgia Critic, causing him to fall to the ground, along with the unconscious object: Angry Joe.
"Joe?" he asked, kicking the knocked out mass of flesh in the ribs.
"Sweet Jesus!" Joe yelled as he sprang up holding his ribs as he looked over to his assailant. "Asshole."
"Good to see that you're up," replied the Critic.
"Am I early?" asked Joe, looking around seeing only him and the Critic.
"You're on time," answered The Nostalgia Critic, "Shall we wait for Linkara?"
"Why not," said Joe as both he and The Nostalgia Critic stood next to each other, checking their surroundings, waiting for their comic book reviewing friend.
"What time is it?" Asked Joe.
"12:30." replied The Nostalgia Critic.
"How about now?"
"1:30."
"Now?"
"2:00."
"Why the hell is it taking him so-" Joe began, only to be stopped as an object collided into him, causing the Critic to point and laugh.
The object got up and revealed itself to be: Linkara!
Linkara stood, having a face of accomplishment...... that is until a fist connected with his face sending him to the ground. Linkara got up, rubbing his chin as he yelled, "What the hell was that for!"
The Nostalgia Critic rubbed his knuckles as he retorted, "That's for being TWO fucking hours late!"
"I had to go through traffic, airline security, and I had to take a taxi over here!"
"Is that supposed to make me forgive you?"
"Kinda, yea!"
"Well it doesn't!" Yelled The Nostalgia Critic as he walked over to Joe, promptly kicking him in the ribs once more, allowing Joe to get up and scream in pain.
"AGAIN?!? WHAT THE FUCK CRITIC!" Joe yelled as he held his side in pain.
"Now that both of you are here and awake," The Nostalgia Critic began, "the reason why I called you both is because of that!" he said as he pointed a finger to an ominous looking hole in the ground.
"What's that?" Joe asked as he peered down into the hole.
"I think it might be a portal." Said Linkara.
"I'll have to go with Linkara on this one, because when I went here to help set up a convention, I saw two kids, and when a ball they were playing with went in this hole, they went in to get it and they didn't come back." Said The Nostalgia Critic.
"So you want to save the kids?" Asked Joe.
"Fuck no! I just want to see where it leads!" Answered The Nostalgia Critic.
"If you guys are right, where do you think it will lead to?" Pondered Joe.
"Maybe to some alternate dimension." Answered Linkara.
"Maybe to something like Sodor." Said The Nostalgia Critic.
"Should we go in it?"
"You first!" Yelled The Nostalgia Critic as he pushed Joe into the portal, accompanied by his screams of terror.
"Geronimo!" yelled The Nostalgia Critic as he pushed both him and Linkara down into the hole.
As they flew downward, the world around them disappeared as they flew in blue space. The body of space around them soon grew dotted stars around them as they drew closer to another hole. Once they went threw it, the blue space and stars were gone as Joe hit the soil of the hard ground.
Once The Nostalgia Critic and Linkara landed, Joe was knocked unconscious by the force. The Nostalgia Critic was able to stand a little while longer then Joe as he, too, fell to the ground, knocked out. Linkara seemed to be the only one to hold his ground for a minute as he surveyed his surroundings.
Everything looks too cartoony to be real... Linkara thought as he fell to the ground.
As his vision darkened, Linkara could've sworn he saw a purple equine approach him and his friends as he faded to black.
Authors Notes: Hope you enjoyed that prologue for my most insane idea ever! Don't worry, you'll see them interact with the ponies next chapter.
First off, Love the idea! I never watched Joe or Linkara too much, but NC has been with me through my childhood!
But I do have to say that some things in your writing were off. There were simple mistakes made that should have been easy to find if you had pre-read your own story, especially since it's only like 1100 words long. Like putting "threw" when it should be "through" as repeating a clause in the same sentence. Also, too many unnecessary page breaks.
I did love the characters interactions and I thought they played well together. Good on that.
I do very much enjoy the concept and can't wait to see more! In fact, if you would let me, I would like to become a pre-reader for this story, to help you out with those errors I saw. I hope you take me up on the offer.
Thumbs up and favorited.
No spoony?
But still might read it if NC is in it...
Yay
I'm reading because it has Linkara in it, yes I like Linkara more then NC.

No Todd in the Shadows either. We need a music reviewer here, stat!
I wonder how Twilight will react to the Magic Gun. Especially if she learns its origin story.
I'm sorry sir but your genius is showing.
SPOOOOOOOOONYYYYYYYYYYYY
And finally someone has initiated the idea of Nostalgia Critic into an MLP fanfic. Never watched the others, but I must say that this should prove for an amusing and interesting story.
Man... I've been meaning to write this crossover for ages and here you go and beat me to it. Good on you sir!
Of course, you realize this means you have to finish it...
Seriously, give up and I'll hunt you down and gut you like a fish. Also, I recommend you take Pickle up on his offer.
While you portrayed the NC spot-on; Linkara seemed a little off to me, but I guess that's all up to personal preference. Even so, you made me laugh. I love all these guys and to see them paired up with ponies is like taking peanut butter and chocolate to make a resse cup. Nice job.
Must track...too hilarious not too....
Honestly I'm wondering which one of these guys will react (in a bad way) to this world in the least. Currently my money is on Linkara, somehow I think he could stand FIM alot more then the Critic or Joe...but let us see .
582155 Yeah that is all great and...Hail Hitler! [Shoots gun every direction.]
582329 ..... Nooooooooooooooooooooo! my precious bullets!
OMG!!!!! Nostalgia critic, Linkara, and angry Joe in an mlp fanfic?.... Ok 3 of my favorite reviewer on channel awesome.... are in this..... Ok this is in my watch later, favorites, and email updates. I cannot wait for the rest of this.
Just started reading the Angry Joe intro, and there's already a math-based error.
Best 100:150? Best of 150 is decided at 76, not 100.
Quick formula: Best of X = (X / 2) + 1 of X
Just finished reading, you have now been watched... crazy idea: get the three of them to help you write their characters. NC seems to be a bigger dick than usual.
It's good, it's good, but you know what it's missing? The glory that is THE SPOONY ONE!
582148 Hooray for the promotion! Thanks, but he hasn't replied yet.
582329 But they were going to kill the innocent dinosaurs!
581996 You've got the job!
582063 Where? Don't look at me!
582458 Thanks for that!
582155 Pinkie, you're not the smartest!
Sweetie Belle, you're not an artist!

Well, the only half-decent equipment I have is a 3DS, but if I can still do that. As long as I don't try and match pitches to the real Linkara song it'll work. I know the rhythm by heart from watching so much of his awesome. *gets to it* I won't try the extended version, though you guys can still build into it.
584482
should I use the end I wrote in #29, or the one you wrote in #28? cause mine is in the rhythm of the real thing
584495 Vincent did release a karaoke version. It's right here, just in case you need it.
If you can record it, send me a link!
584513
Karaoke helps very much
584513
Never mind, I'll just hassle something together.
584525 I can't change that one, or are you talking about the comment that says "MLP!
It's a show!
What?
It was meant for little girls?"
584480
MLP!
Viewed by guys, why are they watching it?
MLP!
Nightmare Moon, Discord, don't forget Chrysalis.
MLP!
This. Show. Is. Great.
EMM ELL PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Do you mean like this or do you mean a different comment to be changed?
Forget it, I made it work with small changes in notepad. Now all I need is practice to make myself stop fading into the real song. xD
584590 Good luck!
I have the vocs recorded now. I'd rather someone else mix them into the track though since all I have is an instrumental to the LONG version and we rewrote the standard.
I'll send the file with the vocs to any volunteer once they offer.
591453 Let's hope we get that volunteer soon!

602412 That's pretty good singing! Much better then I can sing!
603048
Honestly, I sound better live than through a mic. I just don't have any mics of quality I guess. *goes to Best Buy*
yo, amazing job for the first chapter. Joe, Lincara, and NC all are the leaders of their review category. AJ is a master at reviewing games. NC for movies. And Linkara for tearing Crappy comics to pieces. I look forward to seeing more. Keep goin and stay golden^^
605067 The next chapter should be uploaded either today or tomorrow.
606658 yayz!
Two small points here. One, Linkara has a spaceship, why doesn't he just beam over there? Two, Linkara never uses profanity, I don't think he would say 'hell' that judiciously.
I do not care about what anyone says there is just not enough NC on this site, so you keep this crossover train moving to high heaven you hear?
But doesn't NC hate the show and the bronies?
4410534 No didn't you see that one video on Nostalgia Critics thoughts on MLP?
4694857 that vdeo doesnt exist
That's some Skyrim sh*t right there.
