-Four months later-

One morning André and Rainbow Dash were lying together on a cloud above Ponyville.

André: There's nothing quite like napping on a cloud. Rainbow, this is truly…graceful.

Rainbow Dash: Told ya. Sleeping on clouds is the best, right?

André: Yeah.

Rainbow Dash: You and Babe have been staying here for about a few months now. When are you going to find a house?

André: I haven't even thought of that Rainbow. I certainly don't want to be a burden on Twilight.

Rainbow Dash: How about you crash with me? Yeah! That could work, it'll be great! We could stay up late, watch movies, play games and do other fun stuff!

André: That sounds great but I will need to eat. Breakfast, lunch and dinner, Twilight and Spike seem to have my back on that.

Rainbow Dash: Well, I'm not much of a cook but I could learn. We could live together in Cloudsdale and it'll be a lot of fun!

André: You'd do that, huh? As awesome as that sounds I can't live in Cloudsdale. Twilight would have to put a cloud walking spell on me daily. I don't think she has magic powerful enough to have me permanently walk on clouds.

Rainbow Dash: Right…

André: Thanks for the offer anyway Rainbow. I didn't know you'd do so much for me. You don't seem the type who'd be cooking.

Rainbow Dash: You're my friend. I'd learn how to do a lot of stuff if it meant keeping my friends happy.

André: I hear ya. How are things with Soarin, by the way?

Rainbow Dash: From the Wonderbolts?

André: Uh huh. Did you make a move on him yet?

Rainbow Dash: Why would I?

André: Don't you like him?

Rainbow Dash: No. What made you think that?

André: I just thought because-eh, never mind.

Rainbow Dash: Dating one of your idols isn't cool to me. It would seem weird.

André: There are a lot of things you don't think are cool Dash. You know Babe and Fluttershy went on a date?

Rainbow Dash: Really? Wow. I wonder how Fluttershy took that. She must've been under so much pressure.

Babe [voice]: Hey! Hey, Dré!

André: Was that Babe?

Rainbow Dash looked over the cloud and saw Babe. He was with Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie.

Rainbow Dash: Yeah. It is them.

André: Hey guys! What's up?

Babe: No time to talk! Princess Celestia wants to see us in Canterlot!

André: Oh yeah?

Twilight: Yeah. We're going to take the train and it'll be here in 20 minutes! Come on!

André: Oh crap, Rainbow-

Rainbow Dash (picking André up): Already on it.

Rainbow picked up André and flew him down to the ground. The group wasted no time and made their way toward the train station. The group was on time and managed to catch the first train to Canterlot.

Twilight (sitting in one of the train coaches): Record time! I'm so glad we were able to catch this train. We wouldn't have wanted to keep the princess waiting.

Babe: Meh, I'm sure she would've understood. Even if she didn't we would've told her it was André's fault.

André: ME!?

Babe: Yup. Hanging up in the clouds with Rainbow Dash, how would we have known you'd be up there?

André: I asked Twilight. She performed a-

Babe: What were ya'll doing up there?

André: Talking.

Babe: Sure. We believe you, right Pinkie Pie?

Pinkie Pie: Hehehe! Y-Yup pfft! Sure do…heh….

Babe&Pinkie Pie: Hahahahahaha!

Rainbow Dash: What's so funny?

Babe: It's been months and you two still aren't saying anything?

Rarity: It has been too long. Don't you think it's about time you tied the knot?

André: Why are you guys doing this to us? I already told you what was going.

Twilight: It's more obvious than Spike's crush on Rarity.

Rainbow Dash: You guys don't know what you're talking about.

Pinkie Pie: Sure we do! Everypony should have somepony! Hearts and hooves day isn't that far away. You two should probably think about what you're going to do.

André&Rainbow Dash: NO!

Babe: Through our experiences I actually supported you two.

André: Babe, stop. Seriously, there's no way I could go for Rainbow Dash.

Rainbow Dash: That's right. You tell him And-wait, what?

André: Yeah. I'd rather go for Applejack.

Applejack: M-ME?

André: Yeah. Rainbow isn't exactly my type. Besides AJ is just awesome! Honest, hardworking, loveable!

Babe: Wow…y'know, we've been so wrapped up in seeing Dré and Rainbow Dash together we didn't even think about AJ and hey, if Rainbow doesn't care then why should we continue to provoke?

Pinkie Pie: Yeah. Babe's right.

Babe: Now let's provoke André and Applejack!

The entire ride to Canterlot, to André, seemed like a teasing joyride. In truth he wasn't interested in going beyond friendship with his ponies friends, what they all had seemed perfect enough for him. But even so they all had a good laugh on the train. Things just couldn't be any better.

The gang arrived in Canterlot. They didn't haste in making their way straight to the Canterlot palace. They stood at the throne room's door.

Babe (knocking): I wonder what it's about.

Twilight: She did say it was urgent business so I guess it's a good thing we managed to get here in time.

Babe: Yeah but urgent business? I hope everything's alright.

André: I swear…Discord better not have been freed again.

Babe: Man! Even if he was he's not a threat, if he is back we'll kick his-

The throne room doors began to slowly open. Their sudden opening stopped Babe from finishing his sentence. Inside Princess Celestia and Luna were patiently waiting for them. They all entered the room and approached the princesses, the mane6 and André bowed to them.

Babe: What's up Princesses? It's been too long.

Twilight: Babe!

Babe: Hm?

Twilight (pulling Babe to his knees): I'm sorry about that.

Princess Celestia: It's alright. You may all rise.

They all do so, including Babe who fixed his shirt upon standing.

Twilight: Is everything okay?

Princess Celestia: Yes. Everything's fine. We've called you all here for big news, especially for André and Babe.

André: Cool.

Babe: I like good news when it relates to me. What's the business about?

Princess Celestia: Over the course of the months we've looked into our studies and we managed to find something.

Princess Luna: It's a way for you both to return home.

André: …What?

Babe: Oh...

Silence fell upon the room. The mane6 were of course happy about this but they were obviously sad and shocked at the same time. They didn't want the two to leave.

Princess Celestia: You will both be travelling through space and time. You'll be returned to the day when you first arrived however, there's a catch.

André: A catch?

Princess Luna: Once you return Twilight wouldn't have performed the spell that enabled her to summon you both here. Time, space and history will be altered…your meeting would've never happened. You wouldn't have met and your ties to each other would not exist.

The explanation struck the ponies hearts with a devastating blow. How could it have never happened? Everything they've gone through up to this point. It couldn't have just been all for nothing. Twilight and the others wanted to keep their friends, experiences and the memories with them forever.

André: …

Babe: …

Twilight: Everything….would've been for nothing. How could that be?

Pinkie Pie: We don't want to forget André and Babe! They're our friends!

Rarity: We've been through so much, it can't end like this!

Applejack: There's gotta be another way!

Princess Celestia: I'm sorry but this is the only way. It's the only thing that can restore the balances between our worlds. However, we'll give you a choice. We know how much Twilight and the others mean to you both.

Princess Luna: You can return home or you could stay here in Equestria with them. But the choice is up to you.

André: …

Babe: …We can't.

The six ponies were hurt by Babe's rather straight forward and bland statement.

André: We have family and friends back at home. It's been months since we last seen them…they must be worried sick. We can't leave them worried forever.

Rainbow Dash (flying up to the two): S-So you're just going to leave? Just like that…?

André: We don't want to leave, trust us. But we can't leave things as they are back on the other side. We have to set things right on both worlds and-

Twilight: Who cares how both worlds are!? Please don't leave…you're the greatest friends we've ever had….we don't want that to go away…

Twilight couldn't help but cry. It wasn't just Twilight though. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack and Rarity all let out tears of sadness. The sight of all of them crying made the two boys sad as well. Nobody wanted this.

André: Guys, please, don't make this any harder than it already is. You'll forget us but….the memories themselves will always be there. Just keep a strong heart. We'll be in your hearts. Just in the deepest parts that'll be hard to reach.

Babe: Man that was lame.

André: …

Babe: I'm not the sappy type but I swear to you all…one day, we'll see each other again. André and I will defiantly be seeing you again, even if it's not in person.

The others didn't know what to feel. No matter what any of them said it wouldn't make them feel any better however they knew where they were coming from in the situation.

Princess Celestia: We'll perform the spell now…it may take a while for the spell to effect all of Equestria but it will restore everything and everypony back to the way they were before you two arrived.

Babe (turning to the princess's): We understand.

Princess Celestia: We're sorry it had to be this way.

Babe: It's okay. Things need to go back to the way they were. We probably had no right interfering with anypony here.

Princess Celestia and Luna knew what Babe meant and they were even saddened by what had to be done. The two princesses combined their magical powers to perform the time-space spell. Their power combined was enough to change space and time. Light began spreading from the two. The light was expanding in a small dome like matter. Over time it expanded more and more. The light was expanding slowly but it made progress.

Babe (looking at the mane6): It's been good hanging out with you. It's kinda sad that it has to end like this.

They didn't know how to respond to Babe's farewell. He turned to the light and walked into it, shielding his eyes with his hand.

Twilight: We're all next. Once we enter this light our memories will fade away…

Fluttershy (sniffing): …If André and Babe believe it's the right way to go then let's believe in them.

Applejack: …Right.

André: Well. Guess we're up then, huh?

Pinkie Pie: Yeah...

André: It's been sweet. I'll treasure this always.

Twilight: No matter where you are, we'll always be with you.

André (nodding): …Thanks guys.

The light inched closer and closer to the mane6 and André. They all closed their eyes and were ready to be taken away by the light.

August 22, 2012

In a small house in Philadelphia on a rainy day five teens sat in a room playing video games at the back of the house. There were three T.V's but only two of them were being used. One T.V was connected to an Xbox 360 and on the other the PlayStation3 was connected. Two boys were on the 360 and two others were on the PS3 and the last boy was sitting on the bed occupying his laptop. The two guys who were on the 360 were Marcus and Khalil and on the PS3 were Denvor and André. A name from Denvor was called "Babe". The boy on his laptop looked up to see who called him.

Babe: What's up?

Denvor: Are you alright?

Babe: Yeah. I'm cool, just checking facebook.

Denvor: You want to play BlazBlue with us?

André: Nah. I'm done.

André had said as he stood up stretching.

André: I'm going home.

Denvor: What time is it?

André (looking at his phone): 1:00AM

Khalil: It's that late already? Guess I'll go home too.

Babe: Hell. I'm getting tired myself. So Marcus, Denvor you're going to have to leave too.

Marcus: Fine.

Denvor: No problem.

The boys got up and were getting ready to leave. Denvor ejected the BlazBlue game from the PlayStation3 and placed the disc inside the Continuum Shift case. He placed the game inside his hoodies pocket which was just the right size for holding the case. After helping clean and straightening up the room André, Denvor, Khalil and Marcus headed for the front door, Babe walking behind them.

André: Hey Babe, can I get a Swiss roll?

Babe: Sure. Just get money and go to the store.

André: Never mind…

Babe lets out a friendly laugh as they approached the front door. After giving their goodbyes for the day Babe closed the doors behind them and locked up. Now that he thought about it the day went by rather quickly. He went back to his room and turned off the two T.V's. He sat back on his bed and finished up the last few things he had to do on his laptop before closing it and placing it in his book bag. He turned off his room light and jumped back onto his bed.

Babe: …

"We'll be by you, always. Friends, till the end."

Babe: Hm?

Babe opened his eyes and looked around the room. He could've sworn he heard someone talking to him but it must've just been his imagination as there was no one around. He didn't pay it any mind and just closed his eyes, slowly drifting off to sleep.

In Ponyville Twilight was up and about the next morning with Spike.

Twilight: Ok. I've just learned a brand new spell Spike. I wonder what I'll summon!

Spike: Twilight, something tells me something bad will happen.

Twilight: Oh come on Spike, where's your sense of adventure?

Spike: …I dunno. I'm not even sure where it came from.

Twilight's horn began to glow in its purple aura. In the midst of performing the spell fierce sparks were emitting from her horn. Before she could attempt her spell she suddenly stopped.

Spike: What's wrong?

Twilight: …

Spike: Twilight?

Twilight: …Something's telling me that I shouldn't use the spell anymore. Who knows what I'll summon? What if I summon an Ursa? I certainly don't want any harm coming to anypony in Ponyville.

Spike: Yikes! T-T-That's a good point, maybe we shouldn't try it after all.

Twilight: ...Yeah. At least until I'm sure that I've mastered it but that probably won't be for a LONG time.

Spike: Knowing your magic I doubt that. Let's head back into town. We promised to model for Rarity, remember?

Twilight: Trust me. (Walking back to Ponyville) I remember.

Spike and Twilight started making their way back for Ponyville to meet up with their friends. As they're walking a gently breeze blew by.

"Friends, till the end"

Twilight (stopping): Huh?

Spike: Twilight?

Twilight: Didn't you hear that?

Spike: Hear what? I didn't hear anything.

Twilight: Somepony was saying something to me.

Spike: Who? It's only us out here. It must've just been the wind.

Twilight: ...Of course. Hm, but it sounded so familiar.

Twilight smiled with a feeling of strange nostalgia. She shook it off and continued on her way back to Ponyville with Spike.

Uncommon Connection END

Uncommon Connections

A quick flash of everything André and Babe did in Equestria flashed by in seconds through their own perspective the only thing missing was their departure. The memories continued and were replaying over and over however it stopped shortly after.

Afterwards a lonely mare sat on the outskirts of Ponyville. She was blankly looking up at the sky, she didn't move. As she sat in that one spot a cloaked unicorn figure approached her. Underneath the cloak the unicorn had dark gray and black spiky mane and tail. His horn was curved. In color it was dark gray at the bottom then becomes red on its way to the top. He has sharp teeth with two visible fangs. His eyes were green with red irises. A purple mist was emitting from his eyes.

Unicorn: …A lost soul.

Mare: …

Unicorn: Seeking answers for the meaning of one's life.

The horn on the Unicorn began to glow and the memories of Babe and André were slowly rearranged into the ponies mind, displaying them as her own. The word "Uncommon Friendship" appears before her. Most of the letters are erased and soon formed a new word.

Mare: …M-Mem….ori…

Unicorn: Yes, your name.

The Unicorn smiled, revealing his impressively white and sharp teeth.

When one door is closed another is opened. Another door, another adventure...

Well...that's the end. I managed to get all of the chapters up because I wrote these back in like 2010 and 11 but I never did anything about it until recently, posting it online and all. I think it was because I thought nobody would like it or give it a shot but eventually I just thought that if I never start I'll never get an answer.

Hopefully I didn't make too many mistakes, I hope it was somewhat enjoyable for anyone who read. I had more fun than I should have with this, I'd actually like to do it all again but I'll have to see how this one did first before I can think about really moving on. Only time will tell I guess.

Thanks to anyone who read and got to the end, it means a lot to a small time writer such as myself.

A music sample to help the ending mood, just go to youtube and copy and paste this link after it: /watch?v=yPkFWRp1Ewc Hopefully you enjoy that because it's really good, I love Yoko :D
