Goten, son of Goku and little brother of Gohan. Now the young boy has a chance to stand among his two idols as a hero. A hero of a brand new world called Equestria.
Son Goten, youngest son of Son Goku and little brother of Son Gohan. Never in his life had Goten thought that he was living in the shadow of his father and brother. That is, until he had a conversation with his friend Trunks. He had then realized that they held many great accomplishments. Defeating many powerful villains, saving the Earth, and making the universe a better place. While he held nothing up to par with them. So what was the logical answer when a strange portal right in front of him and calls out for help? Goten jumps right in, ready for whatever may come his way!

.....Son Residence.....
It was midday and the sun was shining over a waterfall. The birds chirped and bugs buzzed. All sorts of animals roamed the forest of Mount Paozu. But right now let's set our attention on a small house in the middle of this forest. The house was home to a family of four.
Goku, the man of the household, wore his usual attire which consisted of a blue undershirt, blue boots, blue wrist guards, and his orange Gi on top. Goku is known as a hero who holds many achievements under his belt in his long fighting time. Ever since he was Goten’s, his youngest son's, age he has done many great things. Such as defeating King Piccolo, Winning the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament, and saving the world many times as an adult.
Chi-Chi is the mother and disciplinary of the small family. She is normally seen wearing her favorite yellow blouse over her white shirt and blue pants while also having her hair tied in a nice bun. She is possibly the second strongest human female on earth. Having trained with her father in Martial Arts, along with being able to match her husband back in their much younger days. However, time away from the world of fighting has dulled her fighting abilities. Now she runs the household by making food and keeping the boys under the roof under control.
Gohan, the firstborn son, and scholar. Dressed in the same clothing he had when he fought the evil version of Majin Buu, an almost exact replica of his fathers. The only difference being a Kanji symbol that meant 'Demon' on the right side of his chest and a larger version on his back. Gohan in his youth had managed to stand up to evils such as Vegeta, The Ginyu Force, and even Frieza himself. When he was but eleven years old, he had killed the monster known as Cell. He was the strongest none fussed warrior for a time, yet he let fighting go to concentrate on his career as a scholar. Using his newfound position to provide for his new wife and daughter, Videl and Pan respectively.
And lastly, Goten. The youngest son of the household. The boy held a very strong resemblance to his father and even had an orange Gi to match his father and brother's. The only difference being his undershirt was a blue long sleeve rather than just a shirt. He and Trunks, his best friend, were the first two to master Fusion. A skill that combines to people of equal power and stature to form one being of awesome power! And in this fused state, they decided to call themselves Gotenks! And after training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber they managed to become Super Saiyan 3. A Transformation that so far, only they and Goten's father Goku have been able to accomplish. Both he and Trunks also managed to stand up to Broly, the Legendary Super Saiyan longer than the other Z-Fighters ever could thanks to their speed and small stature.
This was the Son family.
“Goku, Gohan, Goten!” Came a loud yell from Chi-Chi, standing not too far away from her husband and children. All of which were currently Super Saiyan and floating a few feet above the ground.
“But mom we had to!" Goten whined, pointing at his dad. "Dad was beating us and-”
“I. Don’t. Care!" She says with finality in her voice. "I have specified time and time again the conditions on which you three get your food! No Super Saiyan equals food. Super Saiyan equals no food!”
Goku immediately paled at his wife, “b-but! Come on Chi-Chi! You can’t do that to us! It’s complete torture for us!”
“You broke the rules Goku! That means no food tonight for any of you!” Even though she was a tough nut to crack when it came to it, the Saiyans however, had one last trick up their sleeves. Goku turned to the youngest Son as Chi-Chi looked to Gohan, scolding him for letting Goku drag him into the spar.
“Goten!" He said in a whisper, "hurry and activate plan ‘Mommy’s Boy’, Code Yellow!” Goten Immediately knew his father's plan. They had many of them and safeguards just in case Chi-Chi did something just like this. The 'Mommy’s Boy' codes are specifically Goten-centered plans. This one by far is the most useful.
Goten then puckered up his lips, bowing his head a little. He floated down to the ground and slowly made his way to his mother and brother. The two still in their 'conversation' about Gohan needing to set a good example for his daughter Pan.
"Do you understand me, young man?" Chi-Chi asked in her motherly voice, still looking at Gohan with slight disapproval.
"Yes, mom. I'll keep my training to a minimum without Super Saiyan." Gohan responded while rubbing the back of his head.
Chi-Chi would have continued on, yet a small tug at her pant leg made her look down. And right into the pouting eyes of her youngest child. Goten adorably looking up at her with a pout that made her squeal on the inside, it was so cute! Yet at the same time to a mother, it was also kind of heartbreaking to see Goten like this.
"Mommy... please let me and big bro have some food..." He pleaded, playing his part exactly how his father and brother taught him to.
“Goten… awwwww don’t cry!" She crumbled beneath the pout of her 9-year-old! "Sure both you and Gohan can have supper.” At the sound, all three Saiyans then jumped up and shouted in victory. Goten magically all better than before! Something Chi-Chi didn't take notice of.
“However, I did only say Goten and Gohan get food.” The cheering stopped and all eyes went wide. The siblings then looked at their dad, seeing his face white and eyes wide with fright. It was then that the mighty hero of the universe fainted. It wasn't long after that both Goten and Gohan began to laugh hysterically! The two laughed so hard, they fell to the ground with their hands wrapped around their guts.
It was then that Goten suddenly remembered something very important. Something he was sure his mother had forgotten after the long day they all had. What, with Goten and Gohan going out to help their dad with the farm work.
“Oh, mom!" Goten yelled as he stood to his feet. "Don’t forget that Trunk’s family is coming over for dinner!" Shouted the excited child.
“Oh my gosh!" Chi-Chi quickly berated herself for forgetting such a thing! "Thanks for reminding me Goten!”
“So when should they be here mom?” Chi-Chi looked at Gohan and gave a small smile.
“Now that I think about it, they should be here any minute! Oh my gosh, I need to get supper ready!" She started to panic, she had so much to do and so little time! She then shifted her gaze to the two young men.
"Boys, I need you two to set up the table while I make lunch!" Without waiting for so much as a 'yes ma'am,' Chi-Chi ran into the house to get the food done! Leaving behind a trail of dust in her wake.
“Crystal…” the two said at the same time, looking at where their mother had just disappeared to.
It wasn't long after that the two had already set up the table, now placing down the silverware and utensils needed for supper. Goten, while placing down a pair of chopsticks, looked up at his brother for a moment. Then looking back down. Then he took another glance, his mind clearly thinking about something.
“Hey, Gohan!” He suddenly shouted, making Gohan look down at him with a look of surprise and confusion.
“Yeah, little buddy?” The older brother asked.
“I-I was just wondering if…" Goten muttered, looking down with a slightly red face. "Could you tell me about the first time you turned into a Super Saiyan 2?” Gohan stared at Goten for only a few moments in surprise, before a small chuckle came out of his mouth and he smiled at the young boy once more.
"Alright Goten, but I have to warn you, it isn't a pretty tale," Gohan warned, looking down at Goten with a raised finger.
"I can take it!" Goten says as he looks up at Gohan with an adorable glare. One the Gohan couldn't help but chuckle at.
The first son of Goku scratched the back of his head. "Okay kid, I'll tell ya."
"You see Goten," Gohan started as he took a seat in one of the chairs, "back then when I was about a few years older than you, there was a monster on the loose." Gohan took a deep breath, memories of the horrible event playing through his head.
"This monster rained down death and destruction everywhere he went with power we couldn't handle." Goten looked up at Gohan, paying close attention to the story.
Gohan continued. "The monster's name was Cell, and he was a Bio-Android made by a mad scientist that wanted vengeance against our father. And after following events, he decided to hold a tournament to test the might of the Earth."
"It was to be held ten days after he announced it, and in that ten days dad, our friends, and I enjoyed our lives instead of training. Dad said it wouldn't do any good, even with the Time Chamber, but I think that was just an excuse to spend time with friends and family." Gohan laughed, thinking back to when he went fishing with his father and Krillin.
"Heh, and after the ten days were over with, dad and I went out to meet the other and head over to Cell's newly made arena." A sad glint made its way into Gohan's eyes as he remembered what else happened that day.
"Needless to say, dad fought and lost to Cell." Gohan looked down, rethinking telling Goten the rest. "I was the next up to fight Cell..."
Goten nodded his head, now sitting with his legs crossed at stared up at his Big Brother.
"I... didn't do as well at first. He basically toyed with me. I only managed to damage him by taking him by surprise." Goten looked at Gohan in surprise. He was his Big Bro and the second strongest person he knew!
"Before I tell you what happened next, I need to tell you a little bit about my childhood," Gohan said as he placed both arms on his legs, leaning forward to Goten. "I had... anger issues, to say the least. You see Goten whenever someone made me beyond angry, or I felt as if my life was in danger, I would go into a sort of berserker rage."
"Now this rage would continue to come and go throughout my life until my final one at the Cell game." Gohan could still feel the cold rage of his outbreaks, even if he didn't remember the exact details of them all.
"Cell had unleashed mini versions of himself to defeat and kill all of my friends spectating the fight... All in an attempt to get me truly angry."
"It took the words of a dying android to bring all that anger out onto the surface and unleash all of my untapped rage and power. When the rage flooded my system, I became more animalistic. Wild, uncaring. I had managed to gain a new level of power, at the price of a little bit of humanity. That, Goten is how I was the first to achieve Super Saiyan 2.” Goten looked at his brother with stars in his eyes. It has been Goten’s dream to be as strong as his father and brother!
“Thanks, Gohan! I hope one day I can become a Super Saiyan 2 just like you!” Heh rhyme.
“Maybe one day Goten. If you train as hard as dad, then you can do it for sure. You see unlike me, Dad did it through sheer training.” The stars in Goten’s eyes became even bigger. He was about to ask more but a loud knock on the door interrupted him.
“I’ll get it!” Goten ran to the door and opened it to see the sight of Vegeta. he wore his traditional Saiyan armor Blue spandex with a white and yellow chest plate on the top. Next to him was Bulma who was wearing a red blouse with red shoes and a yellow scarf. The last Goten saw was his best friend Trunks. Trunks were wearing his green training Gi with an orange belt and wrist bands.
“Heya Goten. How are you and your family?” Asked the bluenette, leaning forward with her small smile.
“I’m fine Mrs. Briefs! My dad and brother have been training with me while my mom kept us in line and cooks.” His short and innocent expression made Bulma think of her first time meeting Goku. She shoved the thought aside and walked inside with Vegeta following her, offering the boy one last smile before going to talk with her friends.
Goten, excited as ever for some of his mothers cooking, began to follow after. Yet a tug on the back of his shirt stopped the young boy, causing him to glance over to Trunks who had a rather... weird look on his face. Like he was hiding something.
“Goten! Come on man I have something really important to tell you.” The son of Vegeta spoke, looking at his friend with a mix of excitement and nervousness. The purple-haired boy had sweat on his forehead, doing a really bad job at making it look like he was acting casual. Yet Goten didn't care to really comment on any of that. Choosing to follow Trunks out into the woods they went on for a minute or two before Trunks stopped and turned to Goten.
Once they were far enough away from the Son house, Trunks stopped and turned to Goten with that excited grin on his face getting even wider.
“Goten! What I’m about to show you is super secret! Under no circumstances are you to tell anyone! Especially my dad ok?”
Goten simply nodded in response, confused as to what Trunks was talking about.
“Ok… you know how both our dads and your brother are able to go Super Saiyan 2 right?”
Again Goten nodded.
“Well... while I was training on my own in the gravity chamber... I kinda pushed the gravity too high for me to handle. It was, well, really scary and painful... but then all of a sudden I felt a burst of power, and I did it Goten!" Without warning, Trunks let his power shoot out to become a Super Saiyan! The sudden burst caused Goten to take a small step back, yet it was clear Trunks wasn't done.
The young heir to the Saiyan thrown started to charge his power-up, bit by bit. Electricity forming at the base of his feet, his muscle mass slowly starting to bulk up just a smidge... but before he could go the rest of the way, complete the transformation, he stopped. Reverting back to his normal form, a small smile on his face.
Seeing his best friend look at him with confusion, Trunks gave a sly smile and said, "I can't go all the way here. Everyone is too close. they'll sense me and the surprise would be ruined, y'know?"
Understanding finally came to Goten, his frown turning into a small smile as he looks at Trunks with stars in his eyes. His level of excitement matching Trunks' own! The boy suddenly got close, the two sharing a wide grin with each other.
“Trunks… this…. this is awesome! Can you tell me how to? Please!? Pretty please!? I told you how to become a Super Saiyan!” A fact that Trunks didn't like was brought up, as shown in the sudden look of discomfort on his face. Yet it seemed there was more to it than just being reminded of Goten's help, as the purple-haired boy gave a small sigh. His hand rose, placing itself on Goten's shoulders as Trunks forced himself to look the younger Half-Saiyan in the eyes.
“I'm- I'm sorry, Goten... but this isn’t something that I could just tell you and then you'd learn how. I... I think you have to work for it yourself… sorry buddy.” The response from Trunks made Goten look down to the ground, clearly disappointed. Yet not even a full five seconds later, his head popped up, and that famous family smile of his returned full force!
“Trunks! We can have a sparing match!” The heir to the Saiyan's looked at Goten with curious eyes, clearly interested in where the younger Half-Saiyan was going with this.
“We fight and make it look like I’m beating you!"
Trunk's face cringed, not liking that.
"But then while it looks like I’m gonna finish it, you transform!"
He looked up, thinking about the idea. A small smile making its way across his face.
"And then I can see how I stand against a Super Saiyan 2!”
The son of Vegeta gained a smirk, finally catching on to what Goten really wanted out of the plan. Yet thinking on it... there really weren't any downsides. In fact, it made both of them look really cool! The idea actually kind of reminded him of when they tried to do that against Majin Buu... but BETTER!
“Goten, you're a genius!" A fact that Trunks doesn't nearly think about enough. Sometimes it was far too easy to forget that Goten is able to be so smart. Especially with how happy and carefree the younger Half-Saiyan always seemed.
"This is just perfect. Something like that would really make our folks go crazy! So let's do it Goten! We'll hurry back to your house before they get suspicious, and then later we'll give them a show they won't forget!” Goten nodded in response, a large grin on his small face. One the Trunks mirrored. With their plan now made, both boys ran off to the house at full speed, way too excited for their own good!
However, about halfway there, without any rhyme or reason... a thought came to Goten’s head. A frown replacing his grin, the light of excitement in his eyes dying down.
“Hey, Trunks wait up...” The boy called out, slowing down to a stop. Trunks, confused, following suit. Taking a few steps closer to his best friend, noting the sudden change in additude.
“What is it Goten?”
“How do you compare me to my dad and brother?”
The question took the young heir by complete surprise. Once again, Goten proving to be an enigma to him. The way he went from happy-go-lucky... to asking such a weird question.
--------------------End of edits for now--------------------
“What? That's tough Goten… Well I think you have a lot of work to do in order to get noticed.” Goten looked at Trunks with a curious stare.
“What does that mean?” Trunks looked at Goten.
“Well it means that compared to them your achievements are… small. Both Goku and Gohan have saved the Earth plenty of times while you… well you’ve helped but have never managed to do it alone. Like when we had to turn into Gotenks just to beat up a blob of bubble gum. Thats about to change for me when I show them my Super Saiyan 2 form. However for you… well at the moment you're only living in the shadow of them until you do something like saving the world or even a different world.” Goten let the throat dwell in his head. Was he really only the shadow of two great heroes? Goten sat on a near by rock thinking to himself.
“Goten… I didn’t hurt your feelings did I? I’m sorry if I did.” Trunks approached his friend with an apologetic look.
“I’m not hurt. Just surprised is all! Really Trunks it’s no big deal!” Trunks looked skeptical but excepted Goten’s words.
“Well then lets get going! We don’t want to worry them.” Goten looked up at trunks with a forced smile. Trunks knew it was forced. “Go on I’ll catch up to you and the rest when ready okay?” Trunks look hesitant but decided that all Goten needed was space and he would be alright. “Okay bud. See ya at your house when you get there.” Trunks said turning and walking off.
“See ya Trunks!” shouted Goten. Trunks waved his hand and disappeared into the darkness of the forest.
Am I really only just that? A Shadow? No I can’t be… can I? My dad beat up Piccolo twice, the uncle Raditz, Vegeta when he was bad, Frieza, and Buu. While Gohan Beat Cell. Me and Trunks had a chance to beat Buu as Gotenks… But we let that chance slip and ended up having to be saved by Gohan which led to him being beat and dad having to kill him with Vegeta’s help… at least me and Trunks were at the same level but now that he’s ascended to the next form… that leaves me and even if I do go Super Saiyan 2 then everyone could do it and it wouldn’t be special anymore…
What do I have to do in order to get out of their shadow and become just as important! Wait… Thats it! Next time when something happens I’ll help! Just like how dad and Gohan would do! Goten stood up with new found determination. He knew that whatever the next threat was he would face it and win! Standing with his new resolve in mind Goten walked towards his house. After he took one step Goten immediately stopped in his tracks as he hared something.
“He.. .s ..ease.”Goten looked out to the woods where the sound came from.
“Whos there! Show yourself!” The woods gave no response. Thinking he was hearing things Goten begun walking once more. Only for the sane voice to call out again only a bit more clear.
“He.. us please.” Once more Goten looked out to the dark forest. Using his saiyan sight Goten saw a tiny white light shining out from the darkness. Goten ignored everything else as he ran to the light. It only got darker as he ran to the light. It seemed as if the light was running.
“Hey wait up! Wait!” The light seemed to hear him and stop in it’s tracks.
“Help us please!” The light said. Goten begun walking to the light which now got rid of all the darkness. It looked like a white ball of Ki to Goten but it felt… different. As if it was similar to Ki but was completely different at the same time.
“What do you need help with?” The ball didn’t answer only gave off the same message.
“Help us please!” Goten looked at it strangely. Maybe it was some sort of recording?
“I should get dad and Gohan… No! I’ll do this myself! Don’t worry I’ll help you out.” Goten reached out to touch the ball of light.As the nine year old saiyan felt the warm light touch his fingers a strange energy washed over him. Then all Goten saw was Darkness. ……………………….........Equestria. Ponyville. Twilights arrival……………………….………….
Walking the streets of ponyville was a purple unicorn with dark purple hair and a pink streak who also had three stars as a cutie mark. Her name was Twilight. Personal student to Princess Celestia.
Twilight was walking to her home which was a library and house. She had a long day of preparing for the Summer Sun celebration. First she met the pink pony that ran away for unknown reason. Next she tried to find the pony called Rainbow dash who was very irritating. Then she went to visit the food preparations. after that, she went to the boutique, a disaster. Lastly Twilight went to check on this shy pony named Fluttershy. To say the least… She was very tired and wanted to study about the legend of Nightmare moon.
“Well Spike this is our new home…” She said rather dismissively She walked up to her door and slowly pulled it open. When she opened it she walked into the dark house. Looking for the light switch in order to see. When she found it she was shocked to find that she wasn’t the only thing in her home.
“Surprise!” Shouted everypony inside her home. It looked as if each and every pony in town was there.
“Are you surprised! Areyaareyaareya?” Asked the same pink pony from earlier.
“Yes very much… Libraries are supposed to be quiet…” She said sarcastically. Without another word Twilight went up to her room. to read about Nightmare Moon. …………………………………...…...….Later that night………………………………………………
Twilight has been studying all night yet found some good things. Not that the party downstairs helped at all. She heard a knock at the door and used her magic to open it. Standing in the doorway was her purple dragon with green scales Spike.
“Twilight?” Asked the dragon. Twilight looked up from her books to see that the dragon had on some kind of party hat.
“Yes Spike?”
“You're missing the party. Pinky started pin the tale!” The unicorn shook her head and looked at Spike.
“Spike I have to keep reading up on Nightmare moon! I’ve found something interesting. There are these things called the ‘Elements of Harmony’.” Spike looked on with very little interest. He’s lived his whole life with twilight going on her rants.
“Didn’t the Princess tell you to make friends?” She stopped her rant and looked the young dragon in the eyes.
“How can I think about making friends when I have to worry about Nightmare moon!” She almost yelled. Spike looked on with a straight face as she began yet another rant.
“Yeah whatever. I think I’ll go to sleep… see ya tomorrow Twilight.” Spike went to his room down the hall.
“Why doesn’t he realize just how important this is? Well from what I’m reading… the Element of Harmony have not much known about them… so there has to be another book here in the library. But if I go down there then I’ll be suckered into the party… wait the party? I can’t hear anything down there anymore… Maybe they left!” She ran down the stairs to see the pony folk gone. each and every pony that was there was now gone.
“What time is it?” Twilight looked at her clock to see that it was 6:34. Her eyes widened as she realized that she had studied most the night away… like she always does. The Summer Sun celebration was to begin in 26 minutes.
“I better get to my balcony to see the Princess get here!” With excitement in her step the purple Unicorn ran to her balcony. Looking upon the small town from her home Twilight saw the stage and all the inhabitants of ponyville.
“It looks great! I guess the Princess is here because of how everypony is here.” As she said those words Mayor mare (...what?) came on to the stage.
“Good morning everypony! Without further ado lets welcome Princess Celestia!” The current retracted and the shy yellow pony let the pigeons out of the cages. They made… the empty stage look nice.
“What!? Where’s the Princess?” Both Twilight and the Mayor shouted at once. Just then a dark creepy fog crept on to the stage.
“Oh my beloved subject. It’s been so long since I’ve seen your sun-loving faces!” Just then a black Alicorn formed from the smock. she was a bit shorter then Celestia. She wore armour that covered her head and torso. Long sparkly purple hair adorn her looks.
“What did you do with the Princess?” Rainbow Dash yelled at the mysterious figure.
“Why? Am I not royal enough for you? Don’t you know who I am?” She asked.
“Wait a guessing game! I know! Your queen meanie butt!” Before getting to say more an apple was shoved in her mouth. Courtesy of Apple Jack. The mare laughed at the pink mare.
“Did you not recall the legends? Did you not see the signs?” She asked again. the only one who knew was Twilight Sparkle.
“I did… You’re the mare in the moon! Nightmare Moon!” The Dark mare giggled a bit more.
“Well. Somepony that remembers me. Then you know why I’m here?” Twilight looked on in fear.
“Your’re here to… to.”
“Remember this day little ponies! For it will be your last. From this moment the night will last forever!” As she laughed and the ponies looked on in shock another figure was looking on.
“Hey!” Every eye turned to he sound. Only to discover something even Nightmare Moon had no idea what. It wore strange clothing that covered it’s whole body. While it appered stand on two legs it had arms as well. This led some to think it was a mostly naked monkey that could somehow talk.
“Leave these nice people alone!” When she heared it’s voices she almost laughed. Whatever it was it was only a child.
“And why would I child?” She asked as innocent as a kid.
“Because they arnt bad people! Leave them alone or I’ll make you!” The ponies looked on in horror as the child was clearly outmatched by the mare in the moon.
“Then by all means child… make me.” She charged a small weak spell in her horn. The surrounding ponies watched as the mare was about to harm the child.
“I will! I don’t care who you are! My dad or brother would never let someone harm the innocent and I won't either!” Nightmare only smirked as the magic she gathered in her horn launched at the boy. The ponies wanted to help and tried to shout for him to move but he was either death or ignoring them. He held his hand out to the incoming attack.
“Move!”
“Run!”
“You’ll die!”
Something happened that stopped all the warnings. the attack hit it’s mark on the boys hand and caused smock to come up. The ponies looked down in either sadness or anger. Sadness because a child had just died and anger because the one who did it was laughing,
“That is what happens when someone questions my rule! Child or not there will be no mercy!” Twilight had a face of pure horror. Right in front of her a child who by the sound of it was ten or less!
“Was that all? Come on I know you can do better than that right?” At the sound all eyes went right back to the spot where the child was presumed dead. Only he wasn't dead. Nor did he seem to be injured at all.
“You… It seemed that I may have underestimated you young one… But rest assured it will not happen again!” The mare rushed the child with her horn pointing at him. It was clear her intention was to impale him. But to the ponies surprise the child side stepped the attack and countered with a swift blow to the back of the head with his claw.
“Wha?” Was all she could say before sliding down on the ground for some ways. She felt something she hadn’t felt in eternity… pain.
“Are you going all out yet? If not then please do. This is getting a bit boring.” The mare in the moon was angered at this. This child was insulting her! A child! Rushing again with a magic attack ready to strike him down. The boy also rushed her with a smile on his face. When they were at least four feet away from one another the monkey boy rolled out of the way into a tree. Nightmare smirked until she saw something light up in his hands. With out warning a ball of what many through was magic came and pushed on the tree which broke and sent the child flying toward Nightmare.
“What?!” Was the only thing that came from her mouth as she was sent flying bake into the stage complete destroying it in the procces. Climbing out she yelled at the boy.
“What and who are you?!” The boy answer confused most.
“Hi! My names Goten and I’m a half Saiyan half Human!”
Disclaimer: I don’t own Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, or MLP.
“Hi! My names Goten and I’m a half Saiyan half Human!” Nightmare stood there trying to contemplate what she was just told. This child seems… familiar somehow. That look when he glared at me, that face, spiky black hair…! Spiky black hair! It can’t be! So young after ten thousand years!
“Well child… it appears that you have forced me to make a tactical retreat. Enjoy your victory while it last. But remember this. The next time you see me will also be the last thing you will see in this lifetime!” With that said the dark Alicorn vanished into the shadows.
“Huh… That was weird. Hope to see ya again!” The young Saiyan shouted into the dark. Unknown to him many of the town folk walked closer to him. Well… not really walk but more as charge. Looking behind himself Goten saw curious faces charging right to him. And what happens when you charge a young saiyan? Well it’s not the best thing to do. Using his Ki Goten created a wave of energy to blow back everypony. The action succeeded in it’s job.
“Hold it kid! We just want to talk!” Said a pony with a country accent. (I Can’t write like how AJ talks so just go with it!)
“Oh… um ok.” He restrained his power so the ponies could walk up to him. Out them all Goten’s eyes only saw a few that were interesting. Six ponies is what Goten counted. They were the only ones that decided to walk up after that last attempt.
One pony had a light lavender coat and a darker shade for her man with a strip of pink running down it. It’s hair reminded Goten of his best friend Trunks. The pony had a horn that seemed to be dull compared to other horns he’s seen in the mountains of Paozu. She also has a butt tattoo that looked like stars with fireworks. Goten felt her Ki flow. It felt like flowing river.
To the right of her was another pony. It didn’t look very happy for some reason. This one has a light blue color and rainbow styled hair. instead of a horn she or he (Goten can’t tell genders) had wings. On the pony’s butt was a different tattoo that looked like a lightning cloud. When Goten felt her Ki it was like feeling Lighting.
Next to the blue one was a pink one. It had the biggest smile Goten ever seen on an animal.The pony has a light pink coat and darker pink hair. It did not have wings or a horn like the other two. Instead it was a normal pony. The pink pony had a number of different colored balloons on her butt. This one’s Ki was just… wild, fun, and strange.
To the Left of the lavender one were three other ponies. The first one hid behind her hair as she approached the child with curious eyes. It has a pale yellow color with dark pink hair. Like the blue one she has wings. It also has butterflies on her butt.The Ki in this pony was calm and slow.
The second had a large cowboy hat and a look a look that said “Don’t move”. It has a pale orange coat and sun-kissed blond hair. Like the pink pony she didn’t have wings or a horn but she looked tough. It has an apple on her butt. This Ki felt tough. Like you would need a ram to open it.
The last one also didn’t look very happy. It has a stainless white coat and a darker purple hair that Trunks or the first pony. Like the first pony she has a horn. It has three gems of different colors on her butt. The Ki in this one felt stable. Like it would never break.
“Ummmmm.... Hi. My names Goten.” The ponies looked a bit shocked at Goten before regaining their composure.
“My name is Twilight. These are some acquaintances of mine.” Said the purple one. It sounded female to Goten.
“MynameisPinkiePieandthatwasawesomehowyoubeatNightMaremoon!” Said the Pink one. Also female in Goten’s mind.
“Nice to meet you Pinkie.” The ponies stared once more at the child. He is the first one ever to understand Pinkie. But after getting through today hundred shock the ponies continued.
“Mha names Apple Jack, but please call me AJ.” Said the orange one.
“I am Rainbow Dash! Fastest flyer in the world!” Goten stared at the Blue one for a moment confused.
“My name is Rarity… please let me get you some better clothing. While the piece is fascinating that color is outrageous!” Goten looked at his clothing and then back to the white pony.
“No thanks miss. I really like the clothing I have now. But thanks anyway!” However this did not have the desired effect on the mare. Every time she looked at the Gi her eyes twitched.
“Oh whats your name yellow pony?” All eyes went to the yellow pony in question. (Except Rarity’s that were still twitching.)
“M-my name is Fluttershy…” Goten kept his confused face.
“Now that introductions are out of the way… I have to ask… what are you Goten?” Everyone(Pony) looked at Twilight and then to Goten.
“Like I said to the big scary horse. I’m a half saiyan half human. Sorry but I have to go after that mean pony. Maybe we’ll see each other soon! Bye!” And with that the Hybrid was covered in his white aura and rocketed into the sky leaving the ponies flabbergasted.
“.... WHAT THE BUCK!” Shouted Rainbow Dash. While some of the folk began to process the last few minutes they remembered the NightMare moon thing. And the hell broke loose. Yells of terror and screams of dread filled the air. Leaving one lavender pony to sneak off almost without being sighted… almost. The five ponies saw her make an exit and followed Twilight to her home.
(You all seen the show so I don’t have to go into this scene.)
………………………………….……...Above the Everfree Forest………….………………………...
“That mean Ponies Ki is hard to track… I wonder if this is how Gohan and the others felt when they tried to find the Androids?” Goten had been flying around the forest for a while now trying to find the Dark Alicorn. But everywhere he looked it’s like the Ki would vanish then reappear in a new spot.
“All this thinking is hurting my head! What would Gohan do if he were here… He would think up a way to lure the pony… but I can’t do that. Dang it I’m thinking again!” Goten stopped after a bit. He stopped because he felt six familiar Ki’s. He remembered them to belong to the nice ponies he had met earlier.
“What are they doing here? Maybe they know where the mean pony is!” After coming to that conclusion Goten decided to follow them. After settling on the ground Goten tiptoed after the six Ponies.
“How are we gonna cross this?” Pinkie asked to her friends. The others looked slightly confused. So was Goten but for different reasons. Looking ahead of the six Goten saw a river that showed no sign of walking across. Just as Goten was about to let himself be known to help them something yelled.
“Oh what a world, what a world!” Said the Voice. The Ponies made their way to the Voice with Goten tiptoeing behind them. Goten’s eyes filled with shock as he saw a giant Dragon… actually it was rather small compared to Shenron.
“Ummm… excuse me sir but… why are you crying?” Twilight asked the Sea Dragon.
“Well I was just sitting here when all of a sudden this tacky little cloud of purple smoke just whisked past me and tore half of my beloved mustache clean off, and now I look simply horrid." Goten anime fell creating a noise that the others took notice of. However he quickly hid himself in a bush near by. The ponies shrugged it off.
Close one Goten… Have to be quieter.
"Oh give me a break!” Shouted the Cyan pegasus. She was waving her hooves in the air trying to get her point across.
“How can you be so insensitive! He has such lovely scales, Well combed mane, and a pretty manicure! Are ruined without your mustache.” Rarity said with a frown.
“All so much true! I’m hideous!” The dragon put his hands on his head. Goten had an anime sweat drop appear.
“I won’t let this crime against fashion go uncorrected!: She shouted as the fashion pony yanked a scale of the Dragon off and, used it to cut half her own tail off.
“What the?” Shouted the others as Rarity gave the hair to the Dragon.
“hohohoho! My mustache. How wonderful." The Dragon gave a big smile.
“You look simply… Smashing.” She had no idea why she paused. (For all you out there who don’t get it I was quoting a meme which also has a mustache.)
“Rarity your tail…” Goten was still confused about this whole ordeal.
“It’ll grow back in time! Plus I hear that short tails are in season.” She replied.
“SO would the mustache…” Rainbow added.
“Hear let me repay you! Walk across my body to the other side.” Offered the Dragon. They walked across. While Goten just flew to the other side out of sight.
After about ten minutes worth of walking Goten saw a large castle. Not only that but he felt the Bad horse's energy in their. He took to the air above the six ponies.
“I don’t want them near the fight… I better try to slow them down fast enough so, that I can fight her! But how?” Goten looked towards the castle trying to find someway of slowing the Ponies down. That's when his eyes fell on a bridge that looked worse for wear.
“Yeah! I’ll just untie one side and pull it to the other side! Should slow them down a good amount.” With that Goten flew to the bridge. Seeing the rope Goten quickly untied it and, grabbed the ends. He flew across the cliff with the bridge in hand.
“And… there! Now that thats done I should head off to the bad horse and fight her!” Looking to the dark castle Goten ran in that direction.
“The boy just helped me stall them a bit. Why didn’t I think about doing that? Well it seems that the child wants to come at me.... How did my sister bring HIM back to Equestria? Better question. Why does HE look like a child when I last saw him as an adult? All these questions will be answered soon.” With that she walked into the dark.
“This castle seems to go forever!” Shouted a frustrated Goten. He ran through the dark and creepy castle looking through every room. Yet it showed no results.
"I'm looking everywhere but still no sign of that mean horse!" Goten then saw a huge wooden door that seemed like a good place to look. So stopping there Goten slowly opened the gigantic door. Inside Goten saw two thrones that sat in huge room.
"You'd think this place was made for giants'! I better check around for the evil horse." Goten proceed to sense the room for her Ki.
“There is no need for that old friend!” Out of the shadows came the black Alicorn.
“Old friend?” Goten raised his eyebrow at NightMare.
“Why of course! You may look and sound younger and go by a different name but, I would recognise that hair anywhere! You may fool others but you can never fool me! SHow your true face BARDOCK!"

"FRIEZA!" Shouts a lone man, bloody and battered he stands tall in the face of his death. He knew that his time was up... yet he had to make time for his son. For Kakarot.
"Hehehe. You filthy monkey's have always entertained me. Sadly, I have no more options but to kill you all. A waste really." Sitting in his floating chair, without a care in the world, is the mad tyrant, Frieza.
"Bastard! I'll kill you right here! Right now!" It was all talk, and he knew it. Everyone knew of Frieza's massive amounts of power. He was no fool. Frieza will kill most of his kind, but he isn't going to kill Kakarot! It was with that, that he felt the energy fill up his being. In some situations, he would feel invisible, yet now he felt week... POWERLESS!
"Such words from monkey garbage." Frieza knew that his men would eventually be able to overpower the saiyan, but where was the fun in that? No. He will die by the Tyrant's hand.
"GET READY!" He concentrated all his power into the palm of his hand, ready to die. Frieza lifted his finger into the space around them. And orange ball of light coming to life.
Just a bit more! I need a bit more time!
ZZZzzzzzzzz
KAIO-KEN TIMES 3
ZZZzzzzzzzz
KAIO-KEN TIMES 3!
He had no idea why, but by saying the words, he felt an enormous rush of power. Yet it still wouldn't be enough. He would still die. Yet he couldn't care less for the other Saiyans, his son had to live.
"This attack will decide my fate, THE FATE OF THE SAIYANS, THE FATE OF MY SON, and your's of course." He smirked, which sparked new found irritation in Frieza. Now was the time for the Saiyan to strike.
"ARRRGGGHHH!" With a mighty yell, he threw the blue ball of death right at the Tyrant, but it proved unless. Even with his power up, It was only a second delay. Yet through the corner of his eye, he knew that one second made all the difference. He could now die, a happy man. The last thing he noticed was Frieza's cold laughter being blocked out by the supernova.
"Kakarot... Defeat Frieza. Do it... my son..." His only regret, He didn't get to hold the baby in his arms. Not once. That, is the day that Bardock, Father of Goku, died. Yet that was not only the end, but the beginning. Yet before the light could consume him,
Bardock heard a single word. One word that would change his life.
Help.
Then nothing.
…..Canterlot Castle….
War… What is seen everywhere is the result of the long and dreadful war. The bodies of both, the Royal soldiers and the Moon soldiers. Yet even though there have been so many deaths, the war continues. Screams of the two large armies, as they rush to their deaths. Neither side having any kind of advantage against the other. Yet above them, high in the sky, there is another battle. One which will decide the fate of all of Equestria. The battle between two of the most powerful beings in the world. The sound of their clash, even snuffs out the noise made by their armies.
Princess Celestia. Princess of the sun, and leader of the Royal army. An Alicorn, with clear white fur coat, a rainbow mane, with gold accessories. On her flank, is the cutie mark of the sun.
Flying right in front of her, is the Princess of the moon, Princess Luna. Or as she is now known as, Nightmare Moon. Leader of the Army of the Moon. An Alicorn, much like her sister. A pitch black fur coat, a black and dark blue mane, and purple war armour. ON her flank is the mark of a twisted moon.
“RAW!” With a quick blast of magic, the dark mare rushed her sister. Fully intent on impaling her. Yet, the sun princess formed a bright yellow shield, which deflected Nightmare Moon’s attack to the side.
SUN BARRAGE!
From the tip of Celestia’s horn, multiple rays of light appeared. The light shot out to the dark mare. Wide eyed, Nightmare Moon flapped her wings in a vain attempt to escape the light attacks. As each orb of light hit it’s mark, Nightmare screamed.
“Give up Luna.” Commanded the older sister. Her voice was emotionless, but her eyes leaked tears. She hated having to do this, but what other choice did she have?
“Never, Our Dear sister,” Started the dark mare, “I will plunge the world in eternal darkness. You can’t stop me, only delay me.” Nightmare Moon then proceeded to stand, with little effort. Celestia stared in shock, as her attack seemed to have little effect.
STAR COMBUSTION!
A beam of dark light shot out like a cannon from her dark and twisted horn. The huge wave of power raced to the stunned Princess.
SOLAR ABSORPTION!
Celestia called out in slight panic. It was her best defence, yet she knew that since her opponent used night magic that her shield would, at best, absorb most of the blow.
The attack hit and just as both suspected, after a few seconds the weakened attack hit the solar Princess. With a small cry of pain the princess flew back, smashing into the castle.
Yet not a moment later she flew out at neck breaking speeds. As Celestia flew past Nightmare moon, she grimaced at the small trace of blood on her horn. Nightmare glared at her counterpart, ready to end this.
Yet, as the dark mare glared, Celestia could only look at her sister with sadden eyes. She could remember the times they shared as fillies. Running around the castle, getting on their parents nerves, and just playing in general. Celestia had no idea what may have caused the sudden change in her beloved sister, but if this goes on any further she would have to resort to… that.
FROZEN BLACKNESS!
Three beams of magic appeared, and in a nano second they charged Celestia.
Celestia’s eyes widen at the new attack. With three quick dodge, Celestia was not prepared for the attacks to turn and face her once more.
“Run as much as thou wants, but thy will never escape my beams!” Shouted Nightmare Moon in triumph. The dark mare smirked in joy at the scene of her sister trying to out maneuver the dark beams.
“Damn!” Cursed the solar Princess. One of the beams dashed to her side, which she barely managed to duck under. Only to barrel roll out of the way of another. The last of the three aimed at her head, which she ducked to the side in order to avoid.
“Run, run, run, run, RUN! RUN FOR ALL THOU IS WORTH!” Nightmare taunted with a sinister smirk. She was unprepared for a blast of yellow to graze her wing. With a yell in surprize, Nightmare turned to see the sight of Celestia’s horn aimed at her, while the princess was still dodging the attacks.
“Damn thy sister.” Muttered the moon princess in irritation. She stood still and watched as her sister delayed her death.
Celestia ducked and weaved through the never ending assault, knowing full-well that she couldn’t keep it up forever. She would need a way to avoid the blast, and outsmart her sister. She would need to cause some damage to show that the same trick wouldn’t work twice. It was then that a grin spread across Celestia’s face. One that greatly confused Nightmare, and put her on guard.
REFLECTION!
All the light around them brightened to blinding level, leaving Nightmare to try and clear her eyes. Yet while still blind, Nightmare felt three separate spots on her body being attacked. She knew what the other had done. While Nightmare was blinded, Celestia maneuvered the three attacks on her counter part.
“Thy has forgotten of thou cunning, dear sister.” Muttered Nightmare Moon as she shot a glare to her sister.
“It seems, that thou hast learned new techniques in my short time of absence.” Replied Celestia, now stone faced against her sister.
“Indeed thy hast. And this shall be the one that WILL KILL YOU!” With a small shout, Nightmare Moon was covered in her dark purple aura. Her power flowing around her as she grinded her teeth, hoping to end this.
“Now watch,” The dark mare slowly started, “AS THY CRUSH EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!” She screamed as more power rushed forth. It was then that six dark orbs started to spin around her.
“Oh heavens no… Sister, thou didn’t.” Celestia almost pleaded, as she quickly pushed her power, so that six bright orbs were now spinning around her, fear stretched on her face.
“Yes… I have released the Elements of Disorder! Or the Elements of Chaos. Which ever thou may prefer.” She said with a wicked smirk. The six dark orbs then shot into her body, forcing her to cough up some blood.
“Are thou a fool! The Element of Disorder will slowly kill you! They may offer great strength, but so doth the Elements of Harmony! Don’t do this Lulu…” Nightmare paused at the nickname. It was something that she hasn’t been called in a long, long time. Yet a grin slowly made it’s way onto her face.
“I have made thy’s choice. You will die, the kingdom will die, the sun will die, and HARMONY ITSELF WILL PER-” Before the dake mare could react, a blast of rainbows hit her square in the chest. with a small cry of pain, Nightmare looked to see Celestia, merged with Elements of Harmony.
“So it has come to this then… Sister thy truly does pity you. Having been a being of beauty, now is only a monster.” She said in a cold emotionless voice. She would mourn later. For now, she must protect her little ponies.
“ARGGHHH!” Nightmare speed towards her counterpart, ready to inflict only the worst possible pain imaginable. Fortunately, Celestia managed to fly to the left. Leaving Nightmare open to an attack. Taking the chance, Celestia uses her horn to slash at the others torso. Nightmare screamed in mild pain, as more blood exit her body.
“DAMN IT!” Yelled Nightmare in a fit of anger. With a quick black teleportation technique, Nightmare appeared right above her sister with a evil grin. She aimed her horn down at the shocked Sun Princess. Pointblank, Nightmare shouts-
DARK OBLIVION!
Celestia had no time to block, or set up a magic shield, so she had to take the full force of all the black magic that covered her full being. The huge, black beam of magic didn’t stop there, instead it was soaring straight down. The attack caused a massive explosion, killing off both Royal and Moon soldiers.
“Take that, you wench.” Insulted the younger sister, with a wicked smirk. As the smoke cleared, Celestia was seen, still standing, with various cuts and bruises. The sun princess’s eyes narrowed and hardened at the seething anger she felt.
“This is a battle between us! Are forces have no right to be in the middle!” Celestia’s eyes glowed with golden power, as the Elements of Harmony gave her more strength. As a white light enveloped her, Celestia could feel the changes being done. Not only in power, but in appearance.
As the light died down, Celestia was seen in all her glory. Her tiara, once only big enough to fit her four head, had grown larger and sharper. Her wings, once soft and already big, now sharp enough to cut open anything, and grown to a new wingspan. Her hair, once rainbow in color and flowing, now blazing red and on edge. All of her wounds, having disappeared.
A look of power in her glare was all Nightmare needed to know, that this just got a lot harder.
“This. Ends. NOW!” With a war cry, the new Celestia was behind her sister in an instant. The shocked Nightmare had no time to put up any meager defense against this new power. Thus, Nightmare was hit square in the jaw by a front right hoof. The sheer force created a small shock wave, and sent the dark mare spilling to the ground.
“RAAAAGGGHHHH!” Screamed Nightmare, as she attempted, and failed, at stopping herself. The impact caused even more smoke to rise up. Not giving the dark mare a reprieve, Celestia flapped her powerful wings to clear the smoke. The image of a beaten Nightmare Moon, who could hardly stand amidst the debris, could be seen.
“Damn th-” Was all Nightmare could say, as Celestia appeared in front of her with a glowing horn. In a quick downward swipe, a wave of magic energy erupted from her horn, hitting Nightmare pointblank. Celestia flew backward and out of the following smoke.
“Was it enough?” She asked herself. She hoped. She really, really hoped that put her sister down. Yet she wasn’t naive. Nightmare definitely survived it. All Celestia wanted to know, is if it made her unconscious.
“D-damn th-thou.” Stuttered a broken voice from within the clouds. Celestia looked on with wide eyes, as her sister limped out of the smoke. Now even more battle damaged than before. Yet the determination in her eyes did not falter.
“Please… stay down. Thy does not wish to cause thou harm.” Celestia pleaded. Yet her concern fell upon deaf ears. Nightmare tensed as the pain caused by the Elements of Chaos suddenly skyrocketed. She was now in dangerous territory. One second too long, and her life is forfeit.
“Worry about thy self!” With that, a dark aura erupted from Nightmare’s body. Celestia stared in shock as her sister took a similar, yet more lethal than herself.
“By the Gods’... Sister.” Wings, now much larger, have become sharper and a hundred times more deadly. Nightmare’s horn, while not as big as Celestia’s, now had a dark aura surrounds it. Her hair has now become pure black. Nothing but an endless void.
“To late to pray! Now die!” Rocketing towards the sun princess, Nightmare new powers got her there in less than a second. With a mighty roar, Nightmare slammed her giant wing across Celestia’s face. The sun princess was sent back by surprize.
HARMONIC SUN BARRAGE!
Much like last time, the still falling princess shot out multiple beams of light at Nightmare. Unlike last time, the beams have a multi color form, and are much larger than before.
“Tis’ all?” Asked a confident Nightmare. Instead of dodging or deflecting the blast, the Disharmonic user smirked as she took the full force of the multiple blast.
“LUNA!” Celestia cried in shock. She knew the power of the blast, and exactly how destructive it is. She knew that even with that new power, that Nightmare wouldn’t be-
“Yawn. Is that truly all?” Mocked a sinister voice from in the smoke. With wide eyes, Celestia could only look in horror as Luna-no Nightmare Moon, hovers in the center of all the smoke. That twisted grin still in place.
“Sister…” Said the still shocked sun princess.
“Surprised? Well, thou should be. That is one of your strongest, no?” Nightmare absolutely loved the look of pure fear on her sister's face. She could compare it to the feeling of one getting a Heart-Warming gift very early.
“How?” Was all she could think to say.
“The Elements of Chaos! What else! Thou precious Elements of Harmony are powered by Harmony.” She explained as she laughed in glee,
“Mine are powered by Chaos! Look around! There is no harmony, only Chaos! As there has always been.”
“Why must it be this way?” Asked a fearful princess. She hold no fear of herself, but for her subjects, all of Equiss, and most of all… her own sister.
“Why? WHY?! Your sun has always been the most valued off the two of us! While the ponies rejoiced in the light, they have neglected the dark! Always seeing it as evil! When in reality, my night is nothing of the sort!” Ranted the Princess of the Moon.
…..Unknown Location…..
Unknown to both of them, several miles away, a swirling vortex of purple energy appeared in a flash. The force of the vortex sucked in debris from the war. After a few seconds, like a rocket, a figure shot out of the vortex at break neck speeds. WIth little to keep it open, the vortex closed in an instant.
“AAAHHHHH!” Screamed the figure from the vortex. Like a flaming meteor, the figure smashed into the ground, creating a huge crater. Smoke rose from the huge crater, as rocks crumbled.
“KAKAROT!” Screamed a male voice from inside the hole. Suddenly, a blue aura erupted from the crater. Standing in the middle, a man in his early to late twenties, with hair that spiked in unusual directions, black and green battle damaged armor, and torn black pants. The man glares at the sky for what to him seems like hours, but in reality is only seconds.
“What the fuck just happened?” He asked himself. He should, for intents and purposes, be dead. He half expected to wake up in Hell, and suffer eternal pain. This place however, was definitely NOT Hell. If anything it just looked like a battle ground.
“If this is some psychic bullshit then I’m turning into a great ape, and killing every damn thing I can find!” With that Bardock shot into the air. Hoping to find SOME form of civilization. He would get the answers he’s looking for, and depending on how the locals act towards him he may just let them all live… or half.
“I that they would give me a reason to-” With a sudden stop, Bardock’s eyes went wide.
ZZZzzzzzzzz
We see a grown man standing in the entrance of what looks like a spaceship. The man looks just like Bardock, only with a whiter skin tone, and instead of armor the man wears a orange Gi, with a blue undershirt, a pair of blue boots with orange trimming, two blue wrist bands, and a makeshift blue belt. On the man’s Gi is the Kanji for ‘Kia’ on both the front right of his chest, and a bigger one on his back.
“Ka-Kakarot.” Bardock stands to the side, watching his son.
“I’m sensing some really huge powers around here. Both bad and good. Krillin and Gohan are in that direction. They seem to be in a lot of trouble. I better hurry!” With that, the man unleashed a white aura and took off in his friends direction. Leaving Bardock there shocked.
“Sensing?” He asked.
ZZZzzzzzzzz
“Wha?” Bardock found himself back in reality. With a sudden headache, Bardock went to grab his head in pain. It was then that Bardock started to feel… spots. Spots in millions of different directions. He could feel each spot in one place or another. He could feel how some are… heavier than others. How each feels so alike, yet so vastly different from the last.
“What the hell's happening to me?!” And just like that, it all stopped. Bardock could only stare into the sky. His whole being felt different. Like he was a knew… well, him.
“Psychic Bullshit.” Before he could create his moon ball, like before, Bardock felt two spots. A few miles away and like two giant pillars, it felt like they were calling him. Gritting his teeth, Bardock shot out in the same direction in an explosion of blue aura.
…..With Celestia and Nightmare Moon…..
“What in the name of the Gods’ was that?!” Celestia almost shouted. Nightmare didn’t reply, but only stared into the same direction as her sister. It was only moments ago that they felt it. A huge surge of power. Not magic, but power. Enough to possibly best them both of them.
“...” Nightmare couldn’t even describe it. The one thing she DID know is that it was coming… and fast. She could already make the outline of a figure flying towards them. A Pegasus? Another Alicorn? Or even a Dragon?
“DAMN PSYCHIC BULLSHIT!” The figure was upon them in less than a second. However, he looked completely different than what they expected. Instead of the pony, Alicorn, or Dragon stood what they could only describe as a big hairless monkey.
“What the in Tartarus are thou!” Shouted an enraged Nightmare. How dare this… THIS THING, with so much power just show up.
“It’s always the same. This only confirms what I was led to believe. I’m on a primitive planet. Which means that space travel is out of the question… Fuck Frieza.” Bardock muttered to himself. Both princesses stared in shock at how easily he was… ignoring them. Two of the most powerful beings, in their most powerful forms even!
“How. Dare. YOU!” Anger written on her face, Nightmare rushed behind the Saiyan. With as much force as she could muster, Nightmare slammed her left back hoof into Bardock’s back. Surprised by the blow, Bardock was sent spiraling to the ground. When he hit a cloud of smoke rose.
“Hahahahaha… HAHAHAHAHA! That was to easy! To think I was intimidated by-by that monkey! That stupid, hairless ape! I feel silly just thinking about it! HAHAHAHA!” Unknown to her, then same ‘monkey’ she kicked to the ground had heard every word.
“You know… I was going to let you live.” Nightmare’s laughter immediately stopped at the voice.
“You then went and called me a ‘Stupid, hairless ape’ not only that, but that laughter… It reminds me of someone who I hope to kill someday.” In Nightmare’s place now stood the one person Bardock hated more than anything. Frieza.
RIOT JAVELIN!
The same technique he used on Frieza. He’d suppose that this lowly horse would be the next best thing.
“What?!” She screamed in shock. Bardock threw his hand, and the attack, forward. The blast grew around seven times the size it was. And Nightmare knew that it would be more powerful than any defense she could muster in the short time it would take for the blast to hit her. So instead, Nightmare casted a quick teleportation spell.
Appearing far off to the side, Nightmare couldn’t even register the pain in her left side, before it was too late. Floating there with his foot in her side, Bardock had a sinister grin on his face.
“Trying to run? No, no ,no. I’m just getting STARTED!”
THE END.
APRIL FOOLS! Yeah I’m a day late. Well it’s been a month coming and I was lying the whole time! I’m sure there was a lot of people who knew. And if ya didn’t… HAHA! SON BARDOCK FOR THE WIN! So not up for adoption, and will still continue at a faster rate… I’m going to laugh at all the rage comments!
Disclaimer: I don’t own DB, DBZ, DBGT, DBS, and MLP.
…..High in the sky…..
Nightmare stared in slight fear as the creature griped her throat. It was horrifying. Knowing that this thing could simply snap her neck in less than a second. Where did such a powerful being come from? And why appear now?
HARMONIC SOLAR BUSTER!
A small beam of concentrated magic raced across the battlefield. Aiming at Bardock, who turned to look at the blast with disappointment. Yet Bardock felt something from the ray of light. It’s feeling was… getting heavier. At an alarming rate. Bardock pieced together what happened, but it was to late as the blast hit it’s mark.
“GASP!” Nightmare was released from the choke hold as Bardock was obscured in the following dust cloud. She did not hesitate to teleport to her sister's side. They had to make an agreement. For now.
“Sister.” Started Celestia as she eyed the smoke incase any movement.
“Sister.” Replied Nightmare doing just as her elder sister.
“This… thing is by far more powerful than you or I. You know that.” Celestia noticed Nightmare subconsciously rub the spot it held her. Something to note for later.
“Yes, it has… monstrous physical, and metaphysical strength. As much as it kills thou to say, the creature is too powerful for thy alone to fight.” A slight glimmer of hope filled Celestia’s eyes, as she looked at Nightmare.
“This is temporary. Just until we destroy the monster.” Nightmare started quickly. Yet the light in her sister's eyes didn’t cease. It annoyed her.
“And here I thought that it would be a piece of cake. You proved me wrong.” The cloud of smoke dissipated, showing Bardock with only a slight scratch on his back. And a smirk that made both of them shiver.
“Well? COME ON THEN!” With speed the two Alicorns couldn’t keep up with, Bardock was behind them with both hands in the air. He brought both hands down and hit the back of both princesses necks.
“Uh!” A little bit of blood spewed from both of their mouths, as their pupils whitened. Celestia recovered first, and fired another ray of white light at Bardock.
“Hmph.” Bardock backhanded the ray of light, sending it far off. Yet he failed to notice the black ray of energy exploding on his back. Bardock turned to the dark horse, who had a small smirk. Seeing that her attack did a little bit of damage. Bardock couldn’t help but feel a smirk coming on as well.
“Good. Your learning. Keep this up, and I might just take this serious.” The Saiyan taunted while motioning for her to attack him.
“AAAGH!” With a war cry, Celestia was once more right on Bardock’s back with a charged up solar energy blast.
“Hn.” Bardock spun around with his leg out streated. Celestia was unprepared for the kick to her temple. The blow sent her sailing toward the ground. Yet she regained her composure just in time.
“RE!” Looking behind herself with wide eyes, Celestia was met with a face full of yellow energy. As it was, Celestia was barely keeping from exhaustion. The battle with Nightmare, then this?
Whats next? A giant monkey? That would be just absurd.
“Come on now! Don’t want this over to soon, hm?” He was mocking them, THEM? The princesses of the world. Rulers over night and day, the last living alicorn, and barers of all twelve of the elements.
Luna seemed to have enough, forcing more of the evil power into her veins. WIth the power boost, Luna gathered all the energy in her horn.
DARK SPECTRUM!
In the mighty blast of magic, Luna gave a war cry unlike any other. And for the first time in the fight, Bardock felt his blood TRULY rush. The attack was the strongest they’ve given out, yet. And he meet it head on with his own. Holding his hand out, Bardock began to gather his energy for a Riot Javelin.
“AAAARRROOOUUUUGGGGHHHH!” The power pulsated in Nightmare, driving her Power higher than EVER! All thanks to the Elements of Disharmony.
RIOT JAVELIN! And with his energy blast already facing Luna’s, it was clear who was in control of the clash. His attack had not only pushed hers, but the Riot Javelin was growing, while Nightmare’s was shrinking.
Almost like what happened with… Frieza.
Frieza… Frieza. FRIEZA! ZzzzzzzzzZ
One moment, he was about to end the horse. The next, he stood on the strange, blue and green planet. Just like before. When he first saw-
“Bardock.” With a look of confusion on his face, Bardock looked over. Only meet his son, Face to face.
“You know who I am, right?” He asked, raising an eyebrow at Bardock.
“Yes, you're m-my son!” Bardock tried to reach out to his son, yet a firm hand hand pulled him back.
“Sorry, but you're with me.” Said the voice, Looking at the person, Bardock saw the one man who had brought his whole race to it’s knees. Frieza.
‘I thought you'd change.” Came Kakarot’s voice. Filled with disappointment as his Father stood next to Frieza.
“What are you,-”
“I know you can still change. Be better than him. Be a father I'd be proud of.” And in the second, everything slowly turned to black.
ZzzzzzzzZ
“Wha?” Without concentration, Bardock’s and Nightmare’s attacks exploded between them. Causing smoke to fill the area around them.
“Luna!” Celestia screamed while scanning the smoke for any sign of her sister, or the enemy.
“RA!” With the small shout, Nightmare’s power made the smoke dissipate into the wind. Yet Nightmare was not the only one to come out of the smoke.
Bardock stood there, his face one of confusion and fear. Fear which Nightmare took noticed of.
“Have thy brought fear, into thou?” She mocked the saiyan warrior. Not noticing that he wasn’t even paying attention to what she was saying.
“Or has thy power made you insane?” She continued, yet while she prattled on, Celestia took notice that Bardock had no visible reaction to her sister's words. Like they were lost in a gigantic ocean for all he cared.
“Well, it hath been fun, but I must end this. Now.” Believing her power superior to the Saiyan’s, Nightmare charged a rather normal magical blast.
“Goodbye, monkey.” The black sphere of magic shot right at Bardock’s backside.
Yet something seemed to snap in Bardock’s mind, allowing him to see what was coming. And to the shock of both princesses, the Low-Class Warrior back handed the magical ball like it was nothing. Letting it fly far off into the distance.
“No…” He muttered, gaining the attention of both mares. Both waiting for his next move.
“I’m sorry… Kakarot, Raditz…. My Sons.” The princesses looked at the saiyan slightly confused by the names. Yet they did understand something, that this thing had family.
“Sorry I was so much… SO MUCH LIKE HIM!” WIth newfound determination, Bardock looked to the sky. His bright blue aura covering him once more, as he glared at the Heavens.
“FRIEZA!!!” WIth speed that could make a Sonic Rainboom seem slow, Bardock rocketed straight into the sky.
Not stopping when he passed the clouds.
Not when the blue from the sky could no longer be seen.
Not stopping when he reached the atmosphere.
Yet just as he was exiting, some force began to push on him. Shoving him back to the planet.
NO! I’VE COME TOO FAR TO BE DENIED NOW!
Using every bit of his Saiyan power, Bardock forced himself to go faster, and stronger. Yet all that did, was stall him time. The force would not budge an inch. And Bardock knew his power wouldn’t be enough to keep going.
“NO!” He screamed, desperate to to leave the planet. He could survive space for a small window of time, and in that time he could find a planet to rest at.
The force seemed to pulse, giving it new found strength. Strength that made Bardock rocket right back to the blue planet below him. It was then that Bardock knew, he was stuck.
Stuck in a world filled with war and ponies.
…..Celestia and Nightmare…..
“He…. He almost broke the barrier.” Celestia stated in a state of shock.
Throughout the lives of the princesses, there was one truth.
That the barrier that protected Equis from threats outside of it, and that it was practically unbreakable.
“Oh, Faust.” They had been fighting THAT? How were they….
“Good. Your learning. Keep this up, and I might just take this serious.”
The bastard was playing with them!
This conclusion was not lost in the sun princess either. As they shared a look, Nightmare quickly shook her head.
Now’s thy chance. Celestia dropped her guard.
DISHARMONIC BUSTER!
Celestia had no time to even think of dodging, when the mighty blast torn at her side. Resulting in blood sprewing from both her mouth, and side.
“AH!” WIth a scream of pain, Celestia fell to the cold, hard battleground.
All the soldiers, both Royal and Moon, stopped and looked at the fallen princess. Some in horror, other in delight.
The twisted Alicorn slowly floated to the ground. Giving a satisfied smirk when Celestia’s Solar Form ended. SHowing that the Power of the elements have faded.
“Oh, sister. Thou knew from the beginning that thy’s power would be to much. Yet you persisted. Hoping to… hehe… Change, me.” She lectured the unmoving body.
The only sign of life, was the slow and steady breathing of the solar princess.
“And then that monster showed, and gave us quite a scare. Yet it was that moment where you completely dropped your guard, That I had won.” Trotting closer to her Sister, Nightmare gave a sadistic smirk, not unlike that of Bardock’s.
“And now, you die.” Placing her front hoof on Celestia’s neck, Nightmare charged her horn to the brim with disharmonic magic. Finally ready to finish off her greatest rival.
FLASH SPIRIT!
Instead of her killing Celestia, Nightmare was blasted away by a blue beam of power. This caused all spectators to look at the assailant in shock.
Standing there, slightly tired from flying to the battlefield from so far away, Bardock stood. His face one of Rage.
“We’re not done.” The Saiyan said as he slowly walked to the battered form of Celestia. Then two the Royal army. Each one flinching under his gaze, neither them, nor the moon army could move.
“You, the horned horse. Heal your queen.” Bardock commanded as he looked at where Nightmare was thrown.
If the Saiyan Warrior was going to make amends, then he’d save this world first. Should make up for a… small portion of his misdeeds.
“Why? WHY!?” With a blast of dark magic, Nightmare was once again in front of Bardock. Anger clear on her face.
“‘Cause I was once like you. Now, I’m not.” This seemed to only anger the princess further.
“Then… YOU WILL DIE!” With all the Disharmonic Magic the elements would allow her, Nightmare raced at the Saiyan.

…..Castle in the Everfree…..
“Who’s Bardock?” Goten asked with genuine confusion. He had never heard of something with that name before. Maybe it was something he could eat? He’s been hungry for a while now, and whatever this ‘Bardock’ was, it sounded yummy!
“Don’t play like that, thy dear old friend.” Luna said while slowly walking towards Goten. A dangerous gleam in her eyes that made Goten think of Majin Buu.
“Thy may not have the control of the Elements of Disharmony any more, but thou must have lost most your power after transforming into the form of a child.” She gained a smirk, completely believing that she now had more power than the makey.
“But I’ve always been a kid!” Goten yelled a little louder than he wanted. A small pout on his face that made Nightmare Moon stop for a second. The proud warrior she fought, the one that could only glare and scowl at her, was now pouting like a real child? That didn’t make sense. Mind wipe maybe? Age regression? No, her sister had forbad such actions log ago. The secrets lost to time now. A descendant, maybe? But who in all the world would ever consider mating with that thing?
Questions for later. Destruction of Equis and all life now.
“Very well then. Perhaps you are not the man I believed you were. He was a much fiercer warrior, and probably much stronger than you could ever be.” Nightmare was confident in her abilities. Especially since she was now fighting a child.
“I’m strong!” Goten protested while giving the ‘Mare in the Moon’ the stink eye. Which even Nightmare had to admit, made the black haired child look more adorable than anything else. She chuckled softly at the outburst, making up her mind that the child wasn’t anything special. Other than the way he looks.
“Then come, and show me your ‘strength’ young one.” Nightmare said in a mocking tone. Not believing that the kid would be able to-
“HIYA!” With a quick punch to the side, NIghtmare was sent flying back into her castle thrown. Complete surprise on her face the whole time.
She remembered well the strength Bardock had before, and just how he used that power. The pain she felt from this blow alone made her think back to the humiliation dealt to her by that monkey. To say Nightmare was furious would now be an understatement. No lower life form would EVER do such a thing to her again.
Rising from the now destroyed thrown, remember to fix that, Nightmare let loose an animalistic growl. She would no longer underestimate the child. He was clearly as strong as the other primate.
“So be it.” With not a seconds hesitation, Nightmare was flying right at Goten. Her long and sharp horn gaining a dark glow around it as she was just about to run the boy through. Yet to her shock, the boy seemingly disappeared from where he was. Like an afterimage… Oh no.
KAMEKAMEHA!
Not a second later, a small but fast blue beam of light was racing at the Mare in the Moon. SHe quickly activated her Magic shield, in hopes of stopping the blast in it’s tracks. Yet as the beam meet her shield, both her and her protection was knocked back from the force.
Letting the shield fall, Nightmare flew under the wave of energy and made a mad dash for the boy. The wave coming from his hands, further linking him to Bardock. Nightmare grint her teeth in frustration. This boy would pay for what both he and Bardock did to the moon princess.
STAR COMBUSTION!
The blast of black magic raced at Goten,who had already stopped his own attack. The child did something that Nightmare didn’t like. He smiled. The Saiyan child crouched into a stance, while cupping both hands under his body. A blue aura appeared around him while that smile stayed.
KAMEHAMEHA!
Unlike the last, this one was bigger yet slower. It’s power easily on par with her own blast, as shown by the explosion caused when they met. Shock began to form in Nightmare’s mind. This wasn’t happening again. Not after what happened with Bardock!
With new found speed, Nightmare was on top of Goten. His eyes widened a little as he ducked under her incoming razor sharp wings. Quickly spinning, Goten kicked the Alicorn in the side. Not expecting this, Nightmare flew away from any further attacks from the boy.
This was humiliating to the Lunar Princess. The boys very existence was an insult at this point. Here she was, a mighty Princess that could bring an army to their knees on a whim, being beaten back by a child that didn’t even have a scratch on him. Almost just like what happened with Bardock. Except that this was a CHILD! A mere boy that should have been dead long ago!
“Here I come!” Goten screamed as he started to run at Nightmare. His face had a large smile on it as his blood boiled! It was to long since Goten had last fought, and this was his chance!
“Oh no you don’t!” Nightmare then fired multiple blast of her Black magic. Each focusing on the small Saiyan hybrid. That smile never left the boy’s face as he jumped over the first and spun around the second.
“WHY!” More magic blast come from her horn. “WON’T!” An even greater amount came, each buzzing with her power. “YOU!” She started to fire them off even faster than before. “DIE!”
Goten didn’t answer, instead focusing on dodging the hundreds upon hundreds of blast of magic. All the while, getting closer and closer to Nightmare. The boy didn’t expect one of the blast of magic to hit him in the back. Yet it wasn’t the only one, as the small distraction gave the rest a chance to hit him. Goten found himself in pain from all the blast, each hitting him time after time again!
Nightmare stopped her magic from continuing, laughing at the way the boy screamed. He thought that his power was anything to her own? HA! She was THE strongest ever! There was no way that a child could beat her!
“ARRRROOOOOOUUUUUUGGGGHHHHH!” Nightmare raised a brow at the sound of Goten’s screames. That wasn’t the sound of pain she was expecting. No, that was something MUCH different. But what?
Goten knew that he couldn’t take all the hits. They were simply too many for him to come out of it and still be able to fight. Yet he knew of how he could get out! His power charged within himself. His hair flapped while his teeth grinded against each other. Letting out a roar of power, Goten let his family heritage take over.
The explosive power behind Goten’s scream not only stopped the magic from hurting him any more, but even made them disappear from existence. Not making them explode, just simply making them disappear. Yet that wasn’t all, the old castle shook from the roar. Windows shattering, and a blinding golden light shining from where Goten was.
Nightmare couldn’t even make words. This was a whole new level of power than she had ever felt before. Not even Bardock had reached this far. It scared the Princess of the Night. She had needed the Elements of Disharmony to even come close to fighting Bardock. And she could just barely keep up with this smaller version as she was. Yet now he had even more power? Her chances were getting lower and lower.
As the smoke cleared from Goten, Nightmare instantly took notice of the changes made. His hair was now spiked further up, and changed from it’s natural black to sun kissed blond. His eyes lost all the innocence they once held, and formed a cold glare. His pupils, now a teal color. Yet his aura… it was gold, and flowed like fire. Something the princess of the night had only seen few times before.
“Wha-What are thou?” She took a step back without noticing, her breath caught in her throat. It was then that Goten’s eyes became calm again, and his huge grin returning as well. The aura vanished and Goten stood there, like he hadn’t just transformed.
“That's a silly question, I’m Goten!” Placing a hand on the back of his head, Goten just smiled at the princess of the night. Said princess was shocked, not even a few seconds ago, this child was giving her the hardest glare she had ever seen. Now? He’s just smiling and giggling like any other child.
That's right, he is only a child! A small child that could never reach me!
Nightmare regained her composure rather quickly after that, her confidence filling her once more. A nasty smirk adorning her features once more; Nightmare had to struggle to keep her laughter. That she believed that a young colt could EVER match her power. It was ridiculous to even THINK of it. She had almost beaten him before, and she would make sure to end it this time.
“Yes, a silly question. But tell me, can you do it again? Transform, I mean.” She didn’t care for the look of slight embarrassment that Goten had. Only that he calmly shook his head no. That should mean that he has already pulled out his tricks. Fantastic.
STAR COMBUSTION!
The black magic raced from her horn to Goten. It’s speed much faster than before, and with much more magic power to fuel it. In the mind of the Princess, Goten was as good as dead.
Yet, even with the black magic racing to him, Goten stood still. His eyes looking at the attack in an almost bored expression. The young half-breed then put his hand out to the attack. A small smile gracing his face.
“Heh!” The smile turned into a smirk, as the blast connected with the hand. Yet, instead of an explosion, the boy kept the beam of magic at bay. Showing no effort, Goten pushed the beam back with his bare hand. Walking slowly along with it, Goten got right up to Nightmare’s lowered horn. Cocking his fist back, Goten swung and nailed Nightmare in the chin.
The black magic suddenly stopped, and Nightmare was sent flying into the old castle’s walls. Bringing the whole wall with her. Goten just looked at what he’d done with a small smile. Confident that his opponent was still kicking, and raging mad at this point.
A Magical explosion blew the rocks away, showing Nightmare’s damaged form. A bruise showing on her cheek already. Her eyes, glowing purple with fury, and her hair, still flowing to an unseen wind, was a mess now. Not giving in to her injuries, Nightmare sent the boy a deadly glare. One he just shook off as he stared at her. An innocent smile still on his face.
“You… YOU DARE! YOU DARE STRIKE THE PRINCESS OF THE NIGHT! I WILL END YOU!” Rushing forward in a fit of unbridled rage, Nightmare attempted to schwerer the boy with her horn. The belief that he was still inferior to her making it all the more fun!
Her horn then went through the boy with no such resistance. A smile of pure enjoyment crossed her face. She had done it! she had- wait. Something was wrong.
No blood, no screaming child, no pressure on her horn, and the boy was still smiling to her. Or where she was. A look of complete shock came over the princess. She had been deluded! The image of the boy faded as she finally realized she had been tricked.
“Haha! You fell for it! You fell for it!” He childishly said, hoping around behind her in a show of glee. If she wasn’t so angry, Nightmare would have called the action ‘cute’ in a way. But her anger made the notion of adorableness almost non-existent.
“Again? AGAIN YOU HAVE MADE ME A FOOL!?” NIghtmare know only saw blood red. In a mad dash, Nightmare threw herself at Goten. Moving her horn at ridiculous speeds, NIghtmare tried her hardest to kill the Half-Breed.
Yet no matter how hard, how fast she was, her attempts met only air. The young boy was dancing around the attacks like they were going in slow motion! All with that mocking grin on his tiny face!
No Nightmare! Think! He is… stronger than you. But he must have a weakness!
“Missed me!” Jumping over her last attack, Goten quickly spun over her head and landed right on her back. Turning, Goten’s face suddenly brightened even more. A mischievous grin spread across his face while looking at the mare’s exposed back side.
“Hehe!” Nightmare turned her head as much as she could, curious as to what made the child laugh like… that.
“Ride ‘em cowboy!” Sitting down on Nightmare’s back, Goten yanking at her dark flowing mane and laughed as Nightmare jumped in surprise pain. Eyes wide in complete shock, Nightmare could do nothing as Goten pulled and tugged at her hair, trying to get her to go this way, and that way.
“GET OFF!” She didn’t want to risk shooting a blast of magic at the boy in case of hitting herself. But at this point, she wouldn’t care as long as the Saiyan Hybrid let go!
“No way! This is fun!” Goten shouted, laughing as Nightmare tried to buck him off. Her attempts getting more and more desperate as time went on.
Having enough of the child's antics, Nightmare flew straight at a nearby wall. Quickly folding her wings and turning her back, NIghtmare and Goten flew right through the wall. Yet it did not have the desired results.
Goten was still holding on with a smile, and Nightmare was pretty sure she took some damage as well. This only fueled the flame in her eyes as anger filled her every action. What both Goten and Nightmare failed to see, was the six Mares standing there and looking up with slack jaws.
Twilight and the other Mares were stunned to say the least. They knew there was a fight going on somewhere, and decided to stay as far away from it as possible. But now the fight was in front of them, and Twilight had no idea what to think. Neither did the other ponies in the room.
Back at the fight, Nightmare was still trying to get Goten off of her back. Completely ignoring those under her, Nightmare attempted the same thing with the floor. Flying at her top speed, Nightmare turned at the last second. Only to receive pain instead of satisfaction.
“Why are you crashing into the ground?” Goten politely asked from above her. His face showing genuine confusion.
“You little!” Rocketing right back at Goten, NIghtmare was suddenly behind the Saiyan in a flash of white. Nightmare then brought her hoof right at Goten’s unprotected back. Yet just like her horn had done, Nightmare’s hoof ran right through Goten. His form already fading away like static.
She had been tricked again. The princess of the moon, having been tricked by a child no older than 10! It was the worst of humiliation. And the brat was going to pay for his transgressions against her royalty!
Down at the ground, none of the ponies could believe what they were seeing. Goten, who now had blond hair, was fighting on even grounds with Nightmare Moon. Someone they knew to be extremely powerful in terms of Magic. Even the stubborn Rainbow Dash was awe struck just by looking at the fight.
Just then, Twilight had an idea. Looking at the fight, then at her ‘friends’ Twilight’s plan began to form. A smile came to her face while looking at the fight once more. Seeing Goten jump, duck, and dance around all of Nightmare’s attacks only led Twilight to be even more confident.
“Okay girls! Goten is holding off Nightmare, and I don’t know if he can keep it up for a long time. So we need to find the Elements of Harmony as SOON as possible!” She said while slowly backing away from the fight. The other mares gave short nods, as the followed her.
Fluttershy looking at Goten with worry. Hoping the best for the Saiyan.
Back at the fight, Goten dodged to the right of Nightmare’s attack. Backhanding a blast of Dark Magic the next second and flying over the next blast.
“I will KILL YOU!” Sending even more blast at Goten was not very effective. Seeing as how he either deflected them, or dodged them completely. Not even making the dodged blast come back at him would work.
He had her tricks down. He had seen, and learned all the little kinks that her attacks had. He knew that their true strength relied in speed, rather than actual power. And he knew that some were mixed with a type of dark, poisonous energy. He dodges each one of those she fires, and it infuriates her to no end. Each one that has a Poison type affect, dodged completely. But how did he know!?
“My turn!” Bringing his hand up, Goten gathered energy into a small ball above his hand. Yet, instead of sending the blast at Nightmare, Goten shot it into the sky. The propelled him right at Nightmare with break neck speeds.
Nightmare smirked as she successfully dodged the blast. Yet her face morphed into shock, as Goten put both hand down in front of him, and charged a ki ball. Goten used this new Ki ball to fling himself much faster at Nightmare. Catching her by surprise and smashing head first into her armored side.
Nightmare flew right back through the wall, and landed squarely on her other side. Trying to sooth the pain with her wing, Nightmare failed to see Goten calmly walk up to her. His face still containing the stupid grin!
“That was fun, but I think we should stop.” Goten said as he crouched down next to Nightmare. He didn’t want to hurt her too bad. Just enough to make her stop doing the bad things she was doing.
Nightmare looked at Goten in slight shock. The other monkey would have never said to stop the fight. Yet this one, didn’t only suggest it, but he was showing HER pitty! He was pitying the Princess of the damn Moon! Unacceptable! Her horn shined for a quick moment, yet the shine quickly faded as she snarled at the boy.
“DIE!”
The point blank attack hardly made Goten flinch as he just vanished from view. Appearing on the other side of Nightmare. That same pitying look on the small Saiyans face.
“WHY!?” She screamed, already firing another bolt of Magic at Goten. Only for him to disappear once more, and show himself at a different angle. She tried again, and again. Yet the same kept happening, and that same damn look persisted!
“Just stop.” Goten demanded. Not letting any of the princesses desperate attempts at getting to him, we'll, get to him. Which only served to infuriate the Moon Princess even more.
“Never!” She couldn’t. Not when she was THIS close to fulfilling her goals. All she needed to do was get rid of this boy, take care of those fillies, and find Celestia and finishes her off! Only then, will her dream of eternal night rain supreme!
Goten didn’t respond this time, focussing on getting closer to her while dodging the blast of magic sent at him. Taking it a few steps at a time before he was forced to move out of the way.
“RAW!” She yelled, trying all she can to hit the boy. Her mind losing itself in her rage. But Goten just kept on getting closer and closer, his face shifting to a neutral state. Another look that seemed out of place on the boy, yet still somehow fitting at the same time.
“I’m ending this.” The sheer seriousness of the normally happy boy’s voice made Nightmare actually pause for a split second, more than enough time for Goten to close the distance between them in an instant.
“What!?” Nightmare quickly backed up, only for Goten to follow only a few inches away from her retreating form. Goten reached a hand to her, a ball of energy forming in the empty space. Nightmare stared at the blue ball of energy in shock, unable to move any further as Goten was just about to blast her.
Yet before the blast could be sent, a dark purple magic circle appeared under Goten. Looking at it in surprise, Goten let out a loud cry of pain. The magic circle shot up, becoming a pillar of magic with lightning bouncing all around the circle, and by extension Goten.
“AHHHHH!” Came Goten cry, his eyes closing and his arms tensing at a failed attempt to halt the pain. Seeing the boy trapped in her magic circle, Nightmare calmly walked up the edge. Regaining her composure as she looked tauntingly at the the Saiyan child.
“You see boy, I almost forgot the most important thing about magic. The fact that it isn’t just simple blast of destruction. And in our fight, I was so confident, so angry that I didn’t think to cast a trap.” She almost laughed at the boy's pain, his eyes squinting open to give her a light glare.
“But during our fight, I remembered that it wasn’t always the strongest that came out on top. But the smartest. I just had to lure you into a trap, and I have to say, it was all too easy.” This time a laugh did escape her mouth, yet only as a giggle.
Goten could honestly say, this was by far the second worst pain he has ever felt. The first being when Buu killed his mother. No amount of physical pain could even begin to compare to the hurt he felt after his mother was squashed as an egg. Not even the pain the pony was forcing him through now!
And if he could live through his mother’s death, HE COULD LIVE THROUGH THIS!
Teeth grinding, Goten’s eyes shot open as he suddenly took control over his body. Bringing his arms to his side and then pulling his head back. He had remembered Gohan telling him of the time he did it when Buu had him trapped. All Goten had to do was push out all of his power and break the magic apart!
Nightmare suddenly stopped laughing as she caught Goten holding in his cries of pain inside, refusing to let his pain and angry be heard. Nightmare was at a loss as to what the Half-Saiyan was trying to accomplish. Yet she still remained cautious around the trapped child, not
believing for a second he could escape.
*SPLIT*
He split the magic circle in half!?
True to her words, Goten’s raw energy split the circle of magic right down the middle! The resulting split in magic caused Goten’s aura to burst out! Consuming everything in a bright white light of his power!
“RAAAAAAGGGGHHHH!” Goten didn’t stop. He kept pushing the power out! Hoping that something would happen. He felt close to his goal! Like he could just reach out and grab it!
Just a little more Goten! Push yourself a little further!
Yet just as he was about to reach it, like a painful jolt, it was gone. Leaving Goten’s eyes to widen as he suddenly stopped the power output. His mind left to wander as he fell to his knees on the cold ground. He didn’t notice he was short of breath, and he couldn’t care less. He had failed. He had failed at what every other saiyan alive had achieved! He couldn’t become a Super Saiyan 2 yet. It was to far above his current power level. That was the only explanation for what that was. Darn it.
“DANG IT!” Slamming his fist into the stone, Goten’s eyes took a sudden shift to anger. His mind racing with confusion over his predicament. He wasn’t near as strong as his Dad, brother, or even his own friend! And that was only because he couldn’t transform to the next level!
A small distance away from the troubled boy, Nightmare stood in quiet shock. Not only had the boy completely destroyed her magical field, he looked as if he could go on for much longer. While she herself was running out of options, the boy still held the advantage of power. Power no boy that age should even have!
Why? Why were they so strong! How could simple primates over power her! First it was that disgusting man named Bardock, and then this smaller counterpart named Goten. She was a princess of the highest of power! She could raise the moon and control it’s power! Yet those two had stood in her way like unbreakable walls to her plans of eternal night!
She could not stand to be this weak! And she will beat this child to prove her strength!
Yet, unknown to Nightmare Moon, the Half Saiyan child was having similar thought about her.
I won’t be weak anymore! I’ll continue to grow strong so that I can stand with my brother and dad! I will make them both proud of me!
Having made up his mind, Goten looked at Nightmare with a raging fire in his eyes. Nightmare glared back with the same intensity, preparing for the coming fight. Goten dropped to a familiar stance, and Nightmare’s horn glowed a menacing black and purple combo.
KA ME!
STAR!
HA ME!
COMBUSTION!!
Nightmare fired her dark blast of magic at the boy, pushing more power into it as it got closer to Goten. Power radiating as rocks and rubble were blown out of it’s path. Yet Goten kept a calm stare as his teeth gritted against each other. He pushed his hands forward with his eyes opening wide with power!
HAAAAA!
If one were to look, you could see a fully grown man that looked just like Goten appeared behind the boy. The man having the same look of power on his face as he to stood in the pose Goten did. The only difference being a small smile on his face.
The familiar beam of blue energy erupted from Goten’s hands, meeting Nightmare’s attack head on.
The result was a power struggle between both combatants. Then an explosion from the epicenter of the two blinds the two from view. Their yells of strength still filling the air with power.
…..The Mane Six…..
“Come on! Work you stupid rocks!” Twilight said in frustration as she tried to use her magic to spark the elements. The five stones stood in an arc, neither looking more important than the other. To the side of the Purple Unicorn, her friends stood close, looking at her and the stones in worry.
“Hows about ya take a lil’ break Twi?” Applejack asked as she walked up to her with a worried look. The unicorn had been at it for a few minutes now, and no progress was made in getting the ‘elements’ to even light up. And while she knew how important it was that they work, she also knew that trying to hard wasn’t the answer. They needed cool heads to solve the problem, and stressing about it wouldn’t do no one any good.
“Yeah, you’ve been doing nothing but trying the saaaame thing OVER and over again, when we should be out there kicking NIghtmare butt!” Rainbow added as she passed the time by doing some punches in the air. Ever since she saw Goten fighting Nightmare, she had wanted to join in the fray. Yet all the others told her no, and basically used magic and rope to keep her from getting involved.
It was stupid if you asked her. Even now she could hear the results of their fight. Constant banging and yelling, while the occasional shout of pain. It made her jealous of Goten, while also pitying the small child. Every time she heard the boy cry in either rage or pain, it was a sound she wouldn’t be forgetting any time soon. Yet the fact Nightmare had screamed just as many, if not more, times than Goten made her smile.
“I can’t stop now! We are so close! Once I get the elements working, than we can finally help Goten and stop Nightmare. But we can’t do anything without the help of these elements!” She yelled at the other mares in the huge room, her mane getting frisky as she went right back to her work.
“Aww, come on Twilight! Being grumpy won’t make things better!” The ever so hyperactive Pinkie said as she bounced around her second newest friend. The newest being Goten!
“Maybe not, but I can’t stop trying to make them work.” She said stubbornly getting ready to use her magic once more.
“Darling, listen to them. You can’t think straight at this point.” Rarity tried, yet all she got was the same look of stubbornness as the rest did.
“I need to finish this.” Her horn started to glow a bright purple as her eyes squinted.
*Sigh* “Fluttershy dear, please explain to- Fluttershy?” Rarity turned to the animal caretaker, and her eyes looked at her in confusion. The rest soon followed as the started to stare at Fluttershy. Strangely, the normally shy mare didn’t even notice all the concerned stares sent her way. A look of pure worry on her face as she stared at Goten’s location. Every yell and blast making her wince and her worried expression getting worse.
A pink blur followed by two big blue eyes suddenly filled her vision. But she just looked around the party mare, and right back to Goten’s and Nightmare’s battle.
“Fluttershy?” Pinkie asked, scooting right next to her friend.
“Y-yes Pinkie?” Fluttershy took her eyes away from the far away battle. She looked at her friends without trying to mask her own worry. How could she? A young an innocent child was risking his own life while they wait to help him. It tore her up inside. While she definitely didn’t want to fight Nightmare, she would if it meant that young child didn’t have to suffer that pain.
“Are ya okay sugar cube?” Applejack walked up to the shy pegasus. Sitting on the other side of her. Fluttershy could only shake her head no. She wouldn’t be okay for a while after this.
“Ya wanna talk about it?” Again, she shook her head no. It would only make her seem weaker than she already was. She at least needed to stay a little bit strong.
“Come on Flutters. You can tell us anything!” Rainbow added, floating right above her with a steady beat of her wings.
“I can’t.” She really didn’t want to cry this time. She wanted to hurry and help Goten in anyway they could.
“This is to be expected. Your worried for Goten, aren’t you?” Rarity said from behind all of them.
Fluttershy didn’t answer her friend this time. Yet the mares knew that Rarity hit it right on the nail. A look of understanding came upon all of them at the same time. Realising just how much more she would care about the fight than they would. If they didn’t like feeling helpless to help him, she was absolutely torn asunder by her guilt and worry.
“He’ll be okay Fluttershy! Goten’s gonna stall that meanie until we get there and blast her back into the moon!” Fluttershy looked at Pinky with a thankful expression, glad to hear the encouragement from her hyperactive friend.
“YEAH! We’ll totally kick her flank!” Fluttershy found some of her worry for Goten fading as her friends kept trying to cheer her up. They knew just what to say to make her feel better.
Looking at all the other mares and how they cheered Fluttershy up, Twilight couldn’t help but smile at them. They really were the best friends anyone could ask for. WAIT! They weren’t her friends! They had only met a day ago! And she had other things to worry about anyways. Looking back at the stone elements, Twilight stood again. Her horn glowing once more as she steeled her resolve. Everything will be back to normal when she defeats Nightmare Moon with the power of the elements. She will go back to her studies in Canterlot, and the Princess will be back in charge.
All she had to do was activate the elements. With squinted eyes, she focused her power into the stones once more. The glowed purple just like before, and they even started to float. Again, just like before.
She had to do this. For her teacher, Celestia. For Equestria and all it’s innhaptitense. And for her friends! Before she could even question her choice of wording, the stones did something they hadn’t done before. The started to shake erratically, even going as far as to glow much brighter than before!
Twilight eyes widened! She had done it! The elements were now active, and she could use their power to finally seal Nightmare back into-
*CRACK*
What?
A long crack spread across all the stoned elements at the same time. Then the crack suddenly sprang all along the stones, causing them to fall to the ground and out of her magical aura. Soon the stone that was left was turned to dust. Leaving the 6 Mares to stare at the remains in shock and horror.
Their last and only chance of defeating Nightmare Moon was gone, and they were now helpless to her power.
…..Goten…..
“YA!” Goten sent a swift kick into Nightmare’s exposed side. Not done, he quickly grabbed one of her hooves and spun her right into the stone below them. Little pieces of rocks flying into the air as she teleported away from any attempts from Goten at continuing the attack. Appearing right behind the Boy, she shot multiple blast of magic at the boy. Hie quickly noticed the blast and instinctively put his right hand in their path. A blast of Ki blocked the magic, and Goten jumped above his own blast while shooting off more at Nightmare.
Not wanting to let the blast hit her, a quick teleportation let her escape. Only to receive the full brunt of Goten’s fist as it made contact with her sheek. Nightmare was sent flying, but she quickly stopped herself to look at the smirking face of Goten. A look of surprise on her face.
He knew where I would appear when I teleported away from his attack? How!? Not even Bardock could tell where I would appear, and he is far more experienced than this boy. That I have no doubt.
Goten just kept on staring at Nightmare. Waiting for whatever kind of attack she would use. It was then that Goten noticed something. He was… enjoying this fight. He wasn’t scared in the slightest, but excited at the fight. Why? He had never felt this way about a fight before. Sure, fighting Trunks was nice, but that was just for fun. This was a serious bout, and he was sure Nightmare was aiming to kill. So why was he enjoying every second?
Hehe, maybe his mother was right about his dad rubbing off on him. But he couldn’t think about them now. He had a Nightmare to fight.
FROZEN DUSK!
A wave of dark magic flew right at Goten, yet his Super Saiyan awareness let him dodge the wave almost too easily. A smile made it’s way onto his face as he sped right behind Nightmare. A well placed elbow on the back of her neck should do the trick.
Yet a force field appeared right before he could connect the blow. And when his elbow met the field, a sudden force sent him flying into the ceiling. He was surprised she had managed to do it so quickly. He was sure that he had got past her defenses and had her by surprise. Yet by the look on her face, she wasn’t surprised by his assault at all.
She was learning his movements and techniques. Just like he had only a few moments ago. Dang, she was as smart as Gohan! WIth a burst of his golden aura, Goten jumped at Nightmare in a full power charge!
She leaned to the right as the attack sailed right by her.Yet when the figure vanished like a ghost, Nightmare knew she had made a grave mistake.
Goten appeared at her side and rammed his head right into her midsection. Saliva escaped her mouth as Goten then started to wail on her midsection. He kept on pushing, hitting and kicking her until she was literally against the wall.
Nightmare Moon had tried to teleport away from the boys attack, but she couldn’t concentrate over the insane amount of pain! The child just wouldn’t let up on his warpath! He was really looking to end this, but Nightmare would be damned before she fell that easily!
Nightmare’s back hoof shot out, taking Goten by surprise and forcing him to backpedal a bit. Giving Nightmare the distance she needs if she would ever hope to win the fight. Flapping her wings to give herself lift, Nightmare flew to the other side of the thrown room. She could think clearly about the situation.
The boy was tough up close. The bruises on her side were a testament to that. She needs to keep this a battle of distance and strategy. Getting up and close was too much of a risk at this point. She was sure that using the same trick twice to escape wouldn’t be possible, and that would be if she even got the chance. This boy had proven that despite his innocent outlook, he could be a cunning little warrior.
He also has the power to back his position as a strong warrior. Not to mention the many stance that seem perfected to a ‘T’. Nightmare had found all of her arrogance over the child gone, knowing just what the child was capable of now. He could even rival her with the dark elements. The only reason she was even holding on was because of sheer will power and her cunning in the fight. One more assault or attack like the ones before, and she wouldn’t be sure she would even be able to stand, much less fight.
As for Goten, he was busy studying Nightmare’s movements. Goten could clearly remember his Father telling him of Gohan’s fight with Cell. And He especially remembers how Gohan learned all of Cell’s moves and fighting techniques just by watching him very closely. Remembering every detail of a person’s, or pony’s, style. Their breathing habits, their quirks, and even how they think.
And so far, Goten could say that it was easier said than done. Nightmare Moon was proving hard to figure out. And every time he would get close to knowing how she moved, she would suddenly change and do something that just wouldn’t make sense to Goten. But he was getting a little bit better at it. Just a little more, and he’d have her down to rights.
…..Mane Six…..
“T-they broke?” Twilight repeated for what seemed like the millionth time. All of her hopes, her chances of defeating Nightmare… gone to the wind. Literally. The dust that was the Stone, was now getting spread apart by the unseen wind in the old castle. Twilight for all her brain power, could not figure out what had went wrong.
“Aww, don’t worry Twilight! We didn’t need those stupid rocks anyway!” The cyan Pegasus said while patting Twilight on the shoulder. Applejack and Rarity nodding in agreement. Rarity with much less enthusiasm than the former. Pinkie appeared right by her, a huge smile plastered on the pink mare’s face.
“Yeah! We can show that big meanie the REAL Magic of Friendship!” The pink mare then turned in a random direction and winked at a non-existent screen. I, as the author, suddenly feels very uncomfortable. Weird.
“Yes.” The crazy mare said as she still looked at the non-existent screen. You, the reader, now feels very uncomfortable at both my humor and Pinkie's antics.
The mare’s just decided to ignore Pinkie’s antics as they try and think of a way out of this situation. They didn’t know how long Goten would last, and their darn well wouldn’t allow him to fight alone for much longer. And to Rainbow and Applejack, the answer was simple.
“We have ta’ help the kid.” The country mare said while standing by a nodding Rainbow Dash. Both already in agreement with helping Goten. Twilight and Rarity looked at the two like they were absolutely crazy, which they most likely were.
“Are you kidding me! She would kill us before we could even say ‘Hi’!” Was it just her, OR WERE THESE PONIES BUCKING OUT OF THEIR MINDS!? Fighting Nightmare Moon head on? That is practically begging to be killed on the spot!
And since they’ve wasted this much time, there’s no telling how powerful Nightmare Moon had gotten! She could even be more powerful the Princess Celestia at this point, and still be growing!
“No, we just won’t stand by and do nothing while a kid, no older than 10 by the way, fight for us all by himself!” The rainbow haired mare argued, her sense of loyalty over weighing any other option.
“Ah’ agree with her! We can’t just sit with our hooves under our flanks while he might get killed out there.” No matter how she wanted to argue, Twilight found that she really couldn’t. It left a horrible taste in her mouth just thinking about leaving the boy alone to die. She couldn’t in good conscience just up and retreat.
Rarity also didn’t have any proper argument for leaving Goten. Even though she wasn’t really a fighter, she would do what she could to help.
“I-i’m in.” Fluttershy suddenly said. Not looking any of her friends in the eyes, but they could tell she was serious about this.
“Are ya sure Flutters?” Rainbow asked, clearly worried for her first friend.
“Yeah. I sure...” She said quietly. Her hooves suddenly becoming much more interesting than the mares in front of her.
“If she’s in, than I am to!” Rarity shouted, putting her right hoof in front of her.
“I’m in.” Came Rainbow Dash.
“Ah’ wouldn’t have any other way.” Apple jack put her hoof with Rainbow’s and Rarity’s.
“Aww shucks! You don’t even have to ask!” Pinkie’s hoof was seen in the circle.
“I guess I’m in.” Fluttershy added, clearly not liking the idea. But Goten’s screams of pain from earlier were still fresh in her mind. SHe would try and help him to the best of her abilities.
All that was left for Twilight to agree. Yet she was more hesitant than the others. Unlike her, they have never seen an Alicorn’s power. It was on a scale much higher than any ordinary pony could ever wish to achieve. And she knew that she had never even seen the true power they could posses. So the idea of going up against one? Not welcoming.
But, she would never forgive herself if that was Spike in there. Risking his life. So why should Goten be any different?
Giving a small smile, Twilight put her hoof with the others.
