Equestria Budokai Tenkaichi

by Kaliann25

Practicing Ki to improve magic

It was a typical new day at Sweet Apple Acres. As always, the Apple family along with Gohan and Videl were having their breakfast to start their daily routine as fast as possible. But this time Apple Bloom had a little delay and she was already late for school. Really nervous she looked at her sister and her teachers.

"Sis, Mr. Gohan, Ms. Videl please; can I fly to school instead of walking? If I don't I'm gonna be late"

Applejack made a little frown. "I don't know. What do you think, Gohan, Videl?" she asked to them.

After devouring another apple, Gohan smiled. "It's fine. Flying is not dangerous. Besides, everypony saw her at the tournament so she'll be just fine"

"Go ahead, consider it some kind of morning training" said Videl with a grin.

Really thankful, Apple Bloom hugged her family and teachers and flew to school at great speed. Granny Smith didn't say anything and concentrated in doing the dishes; but Applejack and Big Mac took several minutes to recover.

"We'll need some time to use to it, don't you think?" said Applejack.

"Eeyup" said Big Mac.

"Anyway" said Videl, "thank you for allow her to keep training with us. She was really happy when she found out we could be her teachers for a little bit longer"

Applejack nodded. "I trust in you guys. But right now is time to work. Remember: the cider season is almost here and we have tons of apples to collect"

The peons nodded with a smile and started their daily labors. Videl and Applejack were making the apples falls from trees (Videl from air and Applejack from earth); while Gohan and Big Machintosh were doing the hard chores; like moving the apple wagons, dead logs and else. Now the entire Apple family knew about their power, so it was easier to help them without doing all the hiding stuff. They were really appreciated by them, especially Apple Bloom who continued her hard training with excitement.

…

At school, everypony were really excited talking about the Crusaders fight; or well, about Equestria's new hero the Great Saiyaman. And as in the stadium, somepony made the connection between the hero and their friends. But Miss Cherrylee arrived and they had to stop discussing and entering class.

Diamond Tiara complained. "Wait just a second, the three Budokai Tenkaichi are not here yet. Are we going to give them an special treatment just because they know how to fight? That's not fear.

Cherrylee was about to answer when the Crusaders landed.

"I thought I was gonna be late. Thank goodness I'm a Ki master now" said Apple Bloom happily.

Scootaloo laughed a little. "I tried to use my wings but it seems I'm faster with my Ki so I ended using it. Perhaps for a pegasus is a bad idea to learn how to fly with Ki"

Sweetie Belle grinned. "Well, I delayed on porpoise just to check my abilities. Is great to have special powers"

The three of them laughed at that for a while, so they didn't noticed the silence around them… at the beginning.

Sweetie Belle looked nervous at her classmate's stares. "Ehem… yes?" she asked.

The whole class blow up into screams of support and excitement.

"It was excellent, the best I'd ever saw" said Snails looking at them as goddesses. "So how can you fly without using magic or wings?"

"And you were really trained by the Great Saiyaman himself" asked Snips too.

The girls started to move backward while they were attacked with so many questions by their classmates, about how was their training, about the tournament, about the Great Saiyaman and all kind of stuff. Then Silver Spoon spotted the recently gained Cutie Marks on them.

"Ey, I'd never seen a Cutie Mark like yours before. What it supposed to mean?"

Once again silence. The Crusaders saw each other and then laughed again modeling their Cutie Mark.

"Easy" said Apple Bloom. "Mine represents the Ma-Sen-Ko or Energy Canon; the first special technique I used during our fight. It took its time but I finally mastered it after some months of hard training"

Sweetie Belle smiled proud of herself. "Mine represents the Kame-Hame-Ha; the most powerful technique; but slower than the rest of them"

The young fillies saw each other really confused, when Miss Cherrylee approached and smiled to the girls.

"Very well, it was a really great show. Why don't you show us some of your amazing martial arts abilities?"

Scootaloo shook her head and excused for the others. "I'm sorry Miss Cherrylee, but our master said it was forbidden. We can't use our powers unless there's a life or death situations or well, we fight with somepony at our same level"

"You saw the disaster we made during the Budokai Tenkaichi" added Apple Bloom "those are really destructive techniques.

Anypony insisted any more. In fact, they all remembered how scared they were at the Tenkaichi looking at their classmates using a great power; big enough to destroy the best platform in all Equestria; designed to resist all kind of natural disasters. Finally they entered to class and forgot about the rest.

…

Gohan cleaned his sweat with and happily accepted the bottle of water that Applejack gave him. Videl spilled half of the bottle on her head and then she drank.

"That's all for today, guys. Thank you" said the cowgirl winking an eye.

"Those days have being more work to do" said Gohan sitting on a dead log.

"I know" said Applejack. "Soon we're having the annual apple sider sale and that's why those are the hardest days of the year. We'd never cover the demand of sider but with your help I'm pretty sure we're gonna do it this year"

"Not a problem, Miss Applejack" said Gohan happy to didn't accept Celestia's offer. He felt good helping the friend who kindly offered a new home; if he could do something to help her; he was going to do it.

Videl shared the feeling, but she also worries. She knew sooner or later they had to go home; either way by Celestia's intervention or their family and friends in their own world. And the closer they get to that ponies, the hardest was going to be left them. But at that time, she only wanted to help the Apple family and enjoy her time in Equestria with Gohan; besides, it was much more interesting now than a legendary monster was after her boyfriend's power.

Gohan saw his watch (where he hided his Great Saiyaman outfit). "Very well, we have two hours before the girls' training starts, so I'm going to the library"
Videl nodded and walked back to her barn to do some maintenance to her helicopter. Gohan, by his side walked to the library.

"Ey Spike" he greeted the small dragon when he opened the door. " I'm here to return the book I borrowed and see if they have the next volume"

"Ey Gohan, come on in and sorry about the mess" said dragon letting Gohan in.

Twilight was very nervous looking in every corner from the library. In her madness, she hit one of her many bookcases that was about to fall in her head when Gohan held it with his enormous strength.

"Ey Miss Twilight, you have to be more carefully or you're gonna hurt yourself really badly" said Gohan a little worried about the unicorn, who was apologizing and putting back the books in the bookcase.

"Hi Gohan, and thanks" she said. "Sorry about all this, but I was looking for a spell that could help me to improve my magic and… well it drove me a little crazy"

"And the same story of every week" ironized Spike

Twilight ignored him and Gohan gave her back the book he borrowed.

"Okay… I'm here just to return you this. I love all that story of Equestria; can you borrow me the next volume?"

Spike already had it, so he passed the book to Gohan who thanked it while Twilight moaned again.

"Something wrong, Miss Twilight?" asked Gohan. "Is that important to improve your magic"

"But of course" said Twilight annoyed. "We don't know when we're going to face a menace like Discord. I have to increase my magical power no matter what. I doubt you understand it Gohan, but the magic came from our internal strength and I have to increase it if I want to improve my magical power"

Gohan thought for a second.

"Well, I do understand it; is almost the same as Ki; but in a different way. Anyway, sorry about interrupting you, bye and good look with all that magic improve stuff"

Gohan was walking to the door when Twilight jumped in joy. How she couldn't see it? The Ki! That was the answer. When she turned, Gohan was opening the door; so she had to take her chance. She closed the door with her magic.

"Something wrong Miss Twilight" asked Gohan confused.

"Gohan, I need you to help me find my Ki" said Twilight.

Spike turned to her friend. "Excuse me? Twilight you don't like to fight or watch people fighting. Why do you want to learn those crazy attacks?"

The unicorn glared to her assistant. "Spike, don't you see it? Is like Gohan said, both Ki and magic are basically exteriorize our vital force. Isn't it Gohan?"

Gohan nodded. "I don't know exactly how magic works, but at least, that's how the Ki works. But there's no problem; but if I teach you my techniques, you have to promise me to never use it if is not necessary. You already saw how destructive and damaging it could be"

"You don't get it Gohan" said Twiligh smiling. "I only want you to teach me how to find my own Ki and perhaps how to fly; but not any attacks. Like I said, magic come from our internal strength and if I learn how to control my own energy, I'll increase my magic"

"Ah!" said Gohan and Spike finally getting it. Twilight smiled to the both of them and Gohan promised her to start teaching her that day right after the girl's training.

...

Rainbow Dash was flying around without anything interesting to do when she saw her friend. "Twilight" she called. "What's up?"

"Hi Rainbow Dash" greeted Twilight looking up to her friend. "I'm going to Sweet Apple Acres; I have some business with Gohan.

"Do you mind if I join you? I'm bored and probably we could see some of the training"

"Sure, come!" said Twilight happily.

When they came to the Crusaders' club house, they found them fighting their instructors on the air.

Videl dodged with difficult all the energy discs from Sweetie Belle, who seemed proud and happy to maintain her in that position. Apple Bloom wanted to took her chance and attacked Videl by the back; but Videl saw her just in time and made a complicated somersault settling behind the little one; and kicked the poor little girl. Apple Bloom weren't fast enough to cover from Sweetie's energy blasts and all of them impacted her. And when she finally recovered, she found horrified than Videl wasn't there. She was looking for Videl when the instructor appeared right behind her and gave her a tremendous punch in the jaw elevating the poor Apple Bloom. Videl flew again and positioning on the girl, kicked her to the round creating an small crater.

By other way Scootaloo wasn't enjoying herself; trying to defend herself from Gohan's powerful attacks. Scootaloo launched herself to her master, who disappeared and reappeared behind her giving her a powerful punch without diminishing his strength. The impact launched Scootaloo to Rainbow Dash and Twilight who ran to her very worried. It doesn't seem well, she had burnings and bruises all over her body and it was obvious she couldn't walk very well. Still the girl glared to her teacher and ignoring the worried adults, she flew again to face Gohan.

"Kame… Hame… HA!

Gohan calmly punched the blue energy blast, causing it to go to the sky instead of him; causing a little explosion like fireworks. Scootaloo still wanted to fight but she losed high more and more; finally she touched the ground. Gohan understood and landed too.

Sweetie Bell was already defeated when Videl launched her to the ground; only Apple Bloom remained trying to defend herself from Videl, but she was too fast for her and punched her all angles she can to finally give her a final stroke directly to the stomach. Finally the two of them landed too.

"That's all for today" announced Gohan.

"But " moaned Sweetie Belle; "we still have thirty minutes, let's continue"

The other girls tried to say something too, but they were too tired. Videl denied. "Girls, listen, this is it. Don't push yourself too hard; rest is just as important as hard training when you're practicing with these techniques"

Nopony said more and they walked back to their homes tiredly.

Twilight approached. "Gohan, is not of my business here; but don't you think this is too much? What if they hurt themselves really badly? With techniques like yours, everything can happened"

A shadow appeared on Gohan's face. "I know Miss Twilight; but I have to take responsibility for what I've done. When I started teaching them the Ki techniques, I never imagined there were monsters like Discord who would try to control me and my strength. But now than I know I put the girls in danger for teaching them; and if it's true Discord only wants me and I'll give my life defending the girls, it's a good idea to show them how to defend themselves in cause of danger"

"Besides they asked… or well, they demanded to level up for the same reasons. Anyway, we try to keep them ready for anything"

Twilight nodded and didn't said anything; but Rainbow Dash had to say something. "Listen you two: I understand what you're doing here; but if I hear the girls suffered real damage for this, I'll make you pay. I don't care Videl defeated me before so easily, I'll made you pay no matter what"

The both of them nodded. Then Twilight walked.
"Very well, in another subject, Gohan, you said you're gonna teach me how to control my Ki"

"Of course Miss Twilight" said Gohan smiling. "Please take a seat and let's start. Remember you have to learn how to ignore everything on the surrounding to concentrate only in your own vitals. The key for Ki is found your internal force"

Videl sighed walking to Ponyville "Gohan, I'm going to Sugar Cube Corner. Want something?"

"Some lemon pie please" said Gohan happily while his girlfriend flew away from there.

Gohan and Twilight started their meditation and Rainbow stared at them for a while; then she felt bored ant tried to make faces and noises in front of Gohan laughing, telling jokes; but nothing seemed to interrupt his concentration. Then Rainbow changed her objective and tried to annoy Twilight. That worked at the first five seconds.

"Rainbow Dash, go to mess with sompony else! You don't have anything better to do than interrupt my search for the internal peace?"

The pegasus couldn't stop laughing. "Jajajajajajajajaja… you're so fun Twilight; but as a matter of fact I don't have anything better to do. Gohan is bored but you… I just love your face"

Twilight was about to yell her but Gohan stopped raising his hoof.

"Ey Miss Twilight, Miss Rainbow Das can be really helpful" he said calmly. "If you want to found your Ki you have to learn how to concentrate and ignore everything. Being a stone as my father said"

Twilight sighed and tried to relax and ignore the pegasus. Eventually, she made it only paying attention to her hearth beating. Rainbow Dash crossed her hooves moaning.

"You two don't know how to have fun"

She was about to leave them when Twilight grinned.

"What?" asked Rainbow Dash.

"Nothing. I just imagined how ridiculous you'll look if you try to stand still and meditate every day to find your Ki. It's impossible for somepony like you"

"Ey, I can learn that Ki stuff whenever I want" said Rainbow Dash with anger.

"Then show me" said Twilight. "If you can stand still and find your Ki, I'll believe you"

"Humiliate you is something; but tell me what else I can won with this" said Rainbow.

"Well, the annual apple cider sale will start very soon. If you domain your Ki before they start, I'll buy you an entire barrel just for you. If you don't you'll buy a barrel to me"

"You got yourself a bet my friend" said Rainbow Dash sitting with Twilight ready to the meditation.

Gohan sighed. It was a lot of easier to teach young children or fillies.

…

Sombra was wandering by Equestria looking for a victim; anypony who were both stupid and greedy will do. He just need one to turn in into his peon to measure this "Ki master" abilities. He heard about the ancient martial arts masters and their amazing abilities who were all over the world before Equestria foundation; but like Luna and Celestia, he never saw one of them. Looking around he finally felt the dark energy of hate coming from a young mare.

She was a light blue unicorn with a sky blue mane and dressed in a wizard costume. Her proud was recently wounded; there was no doubt about it. Sombra stared at her for a very long time when he finally appeared before her. The unicorn shacked in fear and tried to run away but Sombra held her with his dark magic. She tried to look brave and confronted him.

"Who the hell are you and how could you do something like this to the Great and Powerful Trixie?" she said.

Sombra laughed.

"Great and Powerful Trixie? How pathetic you have to be to talk about yourself in such terms, little unicorn?"

The blue unicorn gulped.

"My name is King Sombra and I'm here because I need somepony who wishes more power than any other unicorn in Celestia's kingdom. Do you really want it, little girl?"

Trixie saw at Sombra with her greed burning in her eyes. "What I have to do?"

"In Ponyville, there's a warrior; an earth pony who call himself Great Saiyaman"

"I'd heard about him. But I cannot allow somepony like that even exists. Nopony have to be Greater than the Great and Powerful Trixie!

Sombra laughed creepily. "Do you wish power? More than anypony in all over Equestria?

Trixie nodded shyly.

Then Sombra's shadow surrounded her solidifying slowly into an strange amulet with the form of a black alicorn with red eyes. Trixie's eyes turned green and red like Sombra's while she felt the power all over her body.

"There's a unicorn who I want to eliminate too" said Trixie. "Like the Saiyaman, she lives in Ponyville. Can I destroy her? Her name is Twilight Sparkle"

Sombra grinned. "Of course you can destroy her. I have some unfinished business with her too. Bring me her dead body and I'll give you even more power. I just need to finish those two. Nopony have to be greater than you"

Trixie bowed to King Sombra. She'll take her time to reach Ponyvill but she'll came eventually. She'll came and then, Sombra could see how soshe werfukilled ter. And if also was able to kill Twilight Sparkle, it was going to be even better. But now the priority was the Great Saiyaman. Sombra gave Trixie the power of three unicorns; if the Saiyaman defeat her; it meant he was a truly Ki master and not even Celestia could be a match for him is he was controlled by Discord and him. But if the Saiyaman fall, even if he didn't reach the power he wanted; at leas he'll had his revenge against that one who stole the Crystal Hearth from him.
