"WHAT?!" Joe screamed loudly
"Yeah I now it's a lot-" Rick said sitting down but was cut off by Joe.
"Nonononononono! This, THIS can't be happening" Rick said aloud
"First stage" Rick whispered to Connor
"It's CAN'T or-or could it? oh GOD! my brother, my mom shill be devastated"
"Second" Rick said to Connor "don't worry, she'll be fine" He said to Joe
"YOU" Joe hissed "If YOU didn't take me on this stupid trip I'd still be there!"
Rick looked down "I know..." Joe stared angrily at Rick
Conner cleared his throat "Come on, Joe. He's not in the wrong hear. No one is!"
Joe looked away. His head drooped down as he looking at his hoofs "Yeah I know it's just-"
"I know" Rick said setting a hoof on his shoulder and pulling him in a hug
"Come on man I'm not gay" Joe said with a chuckle pushing him away
"Now that's over with. Lets think of a plain" Connor said with a sigh
Rick jumped up "Yea! lez do dis! ... but first lets get under some cover I soaked"
They took shelter from the storm under a large willow tree that was close by. Conner sat down on his haunches and let his wet mane droop down onto his face. Joe tried his best to 'brush' off the water from his coat with a hoof. He then said down. Rick on the other hand just did what felt natural and shook it off like a dog.
Conner gave a soft cough before he spoke "ok, so what's the plain?"
Joe raised an eyebrow at this "hey you're the pony guy here"
"Hey man-"
Rick cut off Conner "Well... from what I can tell is that we have a few things we can do. One. run straight up to Twilight, Discord, Luna slash Celestial or some other powerful 'good' guy from mlp to help us. Two. Stay here forever and forget our old selves and just stay here. Or Three beat around the bush and be stealthy and try to get out without anyone thinking were not of this world." Rick stated bluntly
"Well that was-"
"straight forward? Yes, Yes is was" Rick said finishing Conner sentence.
"So Joe witch one do you think we should do?"
"I don't know! were damn ponies for crying out loud!"
Rick put his two cents in once more "Well for all we know we could be in the quote on quote 'real mlp world'. like the shows we watch. so we might-"
"Wait what? you watch mlp?" Conner asked bluntly
"Does that matter right now? *ahem* as I was saying. If this is the show we should pick three. But if we want to get out of here now then one would be best. And last if we just don't care and want to life in sunshine and lollypops then two. But Three I think would be best because we won't sound mad and we would more likely be the safest."
"You really thought this out. Didn't you?" Joe asked
"Nope! just thought it up" he said grinning ear to ear
"Well that sums it up! Three it is!" Conner said
"really? just like that... why?" Joe ask in disbelief
"because better be safe then sorry. and plus I'm tired"
With that Conner flopped back and closed his eyes. The Rain was a constant of pitter-pater on the already wet ground. His very own song to put him to sleep. The welcoming darkness of dreams, he greeted them with open arms. With that he let the first eve of his new life set in.
Joe looked at Conner for a bit before turning to Rick for support. But Rick was curled up in to a ball next to the willow. Joe sighed 'why me?' he thought to himself before he laid down in a way similar to the way his dog slept. The same two words followed him into the darkness of his dreams. 'Why me?'.
