//------------------------------// // Chapter 4: Reunions // Story: Equestria's False Saiyan // by Denchik //------------------------------// -Equestria, Canterlot Castle- Princess Celestia appeared in her room. She turned right and saw Luna, who was laying on her bed, still unconscious. Sighing, she began casting a healing spell on herself and her sister, making her horn glow pink as a side effect. They have both attained a pink aura, which began healing their bodies, removing the bruises, scrapes, gashes and cuts that were inflicted by the false saiyan. The princess of the sun felt her deep stab wound slowly disappear, which lifted the burning pain that resided inside her, making her much happier afterwards. After a few minutes, both of them were fully healed. When this happened, Princess Celestia stopped casting the spell and began lightly panting afterwards. 'I underestimated the difficulty of casting the spell.' thought Princess Celestia, reflecting on how hard the healing spell was to cast. The Princess of the sun's horn began glowing yet again, but this time, the colour of the aura was yellow. Outside, however, the moon began lowering. After it went under the horizon of Equestria, the sun began rising, taking the moon's place. After the sun took the moon's place, Celestia stopped casting the spell. She walked a closer to her unconscious little sister, lied down next to her, wrapped one of her hooves around her sister's body and began tearing up. It has been 1000 years since she banished her sister to the moon and now finally, she had her younger sister back! 'Oh Luna... I've missed you so much...' thought the princess of the sun whilst being on the verge of tears. Every day for one thousand years she wished that her sister was there, every day for one thousand years she dealt with the guilt of banishing her sister to the moon, every day she dealt with loneliness that she was enveloped in due to her having no one to speak to about the guilt she was experiencing from taking a very stupid action to 'defeat' Nightmare Moon. *Flashback* It has been almost 700 years since Luna was banished to the moon. Celestia was at her desk, doing paperwork, as per usual. Every day mainly consisted of raising the moon and sun, with a bit of paperwork here and there. Today was no ordinary day though. Today, was her sister's birthday. Celestia finished signing the last paper with her pen, which she used her magic on to operate. She put the paper and pen away, left the desk and the room, sighing afterwards. She felt substantially sadder on this day than usual. She passed near some of the castle's guards and entered her room. She entered her room and glanced at the portrait that was hanging on the wall of herself and her sister before she turned into Nightmare Moon. She slightly lowered her head in shame while her horn was glowing. A small, black crown, with 3 spikes, the middle one being much longer than the two other ones was levitating towards her. She put the front of item that reminded her of her against her forehead, sadly sighing afterwards. "Happy birthday, dear sister... I'm sorry for being so stupid... and banishing you to the moon..." whispered the princess of the sun, starting to tear up. She really missed her younger sister and felt guilty for exiling her. "I just hope that... Someday... We will meet again... Forgive me Luna..." whispered Princess Celestia, putting the crown back into it's place. She then sat on her bed and began sobbing uncontrollably... *Flashback end* "You're finally back... Little sister!" exclaimed Princess Celestia, unable to hold back her tears anymore. She buried her muzzle in to Luna's side and began crying. This time, she cried not tears of sadness, but tears of joy. She hasn't been this happy during the last 1000 years of her life... When suddenly, Luna's body slightly twitched. The princess of the sun noticed this and broke the hug while removing her head from her sister's side. She saw her sister slowly, but surely raising her head and opening her eyes. 'Where... am I?' thought the princess of the moon whilst surveying her surroundings. The memories of her time while being Nightmare Moon began coming back to hear, which made her disgusted with what she managed to become. "Hello... Luna." said a familiar voice behind her. She turned her head around and saw her sister, smiling at her, with tears in her eyes. Luna went wide eyed and lowered her head in shame. "It has been a thousand years since i've seen you, little sister. Time could put our differences behind us, we were meant to rule together Luna! Will you... accept my friendship and apology?" asked Princess Celestia, looking in to Luna's eyes pleadingly. The princess of the moon's eyes began tearing up, just like Celestia's. She nodded and hugged her older sister. "Yes! I'm so sorry for what I've done! I've missed you so much big sister!" exclaimed Luna whilst breaking out into tears. Celestia returned the hug, with her smile getting wider afterwards. "I've missed you too, Luna...". -Equestria, EverFree forest- Twilight's horn began expelling a purple aura. Goku Black's unconscious body got covered in the same aura, which made him levitate a few feet off the ground. Twilight brought the unconscious false saiyan closer to the group and turned around. "Girls, I'm going to carry him to the hospital. Can all of you keep an eye on him while we walk towards it?" asked Twilight, receiving multiple nods. They began making their way towards Ponyville's hospital through the EverFree forest. Rarity looked behind her and noticed that her tail was back! "Oh wow, Rarity, it's so lovely!" complimented Fluttershy, motioning to her new necklace. Rarity thought the she was talking about her tail, which made her smile. "I know! I will never part with it again!" exclaimed Rarity, swishing her tail back and forth. "No, silly! I'm talking about your necklace! It looks like your cutie mark!" said Fluttershy, pointing at Rarity's necklace. The fashion adoring mare looked down and began examining her necklace. Indeed, it looked like her cutie mark! "So does yours!" said Rarity whilst examining the shy mare's necklace. Fluttershy, like Rarity, looked down and also saw her necklace, smiling and gasping afterwards. The necklace had a gem with a pink butterfly on it. "Look at mine! Look at mine!" exclaimed Pinkie pie, whilst jumping around. Her necklace had a blue gem in the shape of a balloon on it. "Aw yeah!" said Rainbow Dash, finding out that her necklace had a red gem in the shape of a lightning bolt. Applejack found out that her necklace had an orange gem in the shape of an apple. Twilight Sparkle, out of curiosity, inspected her tiara. It had a red gem in the shape of a star with 6 sides. "Gee Twilight, i thought that you were spouting a lot of hooey. We really do represent the elements of harmony!" admitted smiled and nodded afterwards. She then turned around, looked at the unconscious body of Goku Black and went deep in thought. "Girls... Do you truly think that this... being is as strong as he said he is?" asked Twilight. Some of the mares took a closer look at the false saiyan and also went deep in thought. "Well, I don't know... He singlehandedly defeated Nightmare Moon and was about to kill her until we stepped in. He also gave Princess Celestia a run for her money and shrugged off the elements of harmony." said Applejack. "He may be stronger than me, but he's certainly not faster than the fastest flier in Equestria!" boasted Rainbow Dash, which made the other ponies roll their eyes. They noticed that she sky was getting brighter. They looked up and saw that the sun was being raised. 'I sure hope that the princess made the right choice' thought Twilight Sparkle while looking at Goku Black. After a little while, they have finally made it to Ponyville's hospital. Upon entering it, they ran up to the front desk of the hospital, with Twilight Sparkle presenting the unconscious Goku Black to the medical receptionist afterwards. 'What happened to him?' thought the medical receptionist after witnessing the torn up and unconscious false saiyan. She left the reception desk and ran to the nearest gurney. She took it and began pushing it towards the mane 6. After it was close to them, she motioned Twilight to put Goku Black on the gurney. She levitated him towards it and eventually, put the false saiyan on it. The medical receptionist began pushing the gurney towards the emergency room. After she was near it, she opened the door and brought him in. The doctor, who was at the emergency room that time, went wide eyed and got to work. The doctor nodded, which made the medical receptionist exit the emergency room. She made it towards the front desk, where the mane 6 were waiting for her. "This should take a while. In the mean time, could you tell me what's his name and what is he?" asked the medical receptionist, taking a piece of paper and a pen. The group in front of her just looked at each other, due to not really knowing who or what he is. "We... Don't know his name and we don't know what he is. We only know that he isn't a 'human'" said Twilight Sparkle, remembering how mad Goku Black got after Nightmare Moon called him one. The medical receptionist nodded and wrote down what Twilight said. "Alright, thanks. Come back later today!" said the medical receptionist. The mane 6 nodded and exited Ponyville's Hospital. Twilight sighed and smiled. "What a day. We defeated Nightmare Moon, brought back Celestia's sister and helped our princess defeat him." said Twilight Sparkle. "You know what this calls for?! A PARTY!" exclaimed Pinkie Pie. *About 1 hour later* Everypony was awaiting Princess Celestia's and Princess Luna's arrival to Ponyville. They noticed both of them arriving in a golden royal carriage, hauled by multiple pegai in armor. Upon their arrival, the inhabitants of Ponyville began cheering. Spike noticed Twilight finally come back. He ran up to her and hugged her. Luna and Celestia got off the chariot. When both of them got closer to the group of ponies in front of them, they began bowing to them. Two pegasus fillies put a necklace that was made out of flowers on Luna's neck, surprising the princess of the moon. However, during all of this, Twilight Sparkle wore a sad expression on her face. Princess Celestia noticed this and began making her way towards her student. "Why so glum my faithful student? Are you not happy that your quest is complete and you could return to your studies in Canterlot?" asked Princess Celestia, which made Twilight Sparkle a bit sadder. "That's... Just it. Just when I learned how wonderful it is to have friends... I have to leave them." admitted the purple unicorn. Celestia, seeing the problem, never broke her happy expression. "Spike, take a note please." asked Princess Celestia, to which Spike complied. He got a piece of paper and a feather with ink to write on it. "I, Princess Celestia, hereby decree, that the unicorn, Twilight Sparkle, shall take on a new mission for Equestria. She must continue to study the magic of friendship and she also must report her findings to me, from her new home, in Ponyville!" said Princess Celestia, which made Twilight's mood go up. "Thank you Princess Celestia!" exclaimed Twilight Sparkle. When suddenly, her friends enveloped her in a group hug, which she gladly returned. Every inhabitant of Ponyville began cheering for Twilight, very happy for the purple unicorn.
