After a large explosion went off in the corridors of the Canterlot Castle, Twilight and Starlight were first to emerge through the smoke. But gasped at what they saw down at the end of the hallway. Many members of the royal guard lying unconscious at the hands of the invaders calling themselves the Frieza Force.
Hearing the gasps, one of the aliens spotted the two mares down the corridor.
“Hay! Over there!” He said, alerting the others.
“Get ready!” Starlight alerted to her Alicorn friend. The two raising their hands and preparing to use a spell to protect themselves. Starlight especially feeling confident due to a new ally on their side.
Speaking of which, to the surprise of the two mares and the alien solders, their ally, who was the freed Saiyan Broly, casually walked past the anthro ponies and towards the enemy.
Feeling threatened, the aliens retaliated.
“Take him down!” One alien shouted before him and his comrades aimed their hands and wrist blasters at the advancing Saiyan. Then fired a volley of lasers and ki blasts at him.
At first Twilight and Starlight were worried. But their concern was quickly replaced with surprise and awe to see Broly marching through the hellfire of attacks. Despite the attacks exploding against his body and shrouding him in smoke, the Saiyan of Legend was unfazed by the time the smoke cleared.
“Huh!?” One alien shrieked in confusion as he and the others froze in intimidation.
It was Broly’s turn to attack. After rushing forward, the Saiyan grabbed the heads of the two soldiers in front of him and slammed their heads together. The aliens screamed in pain as their scouters were smashed to pieces. Then throwing his arms apart, Broly threw the soldiers aside. The two crashing into walls. Then after charging onward, he started throwing a barrage of punches and kicks at the solders. Most of the aliens were sent flying just from the force of the attacks alone. Then grabbing a green alien’s face, Broly charged to a side and slammed him into a wall. Then as a blue alien attempted to get a jump on Broly, the Saiyan quickly threw his arm back and elbowed the alien in the face. Breaking his nose and sending him hurtling back. A yellow alien managed to land a kick to Broly’s neck. But the attack did nothing as the latter merely grabbed the alien’s leg and tossed him into the ceiling.
As the rest of the group managed to catch up with Twilight and Starlight, they too watched in awe at the display of power Broly was showing. The Saiyan was outnumbered twenty to one, but he was clearly winning.
“I don’t believe it. He’s kicking their butts. But…”
Rainbow Dash paused as she took note of Broly’s facial expression.
“… he looks so bored.”
The blue Pegasus wasn’t entirely wrong. The power level of the Frieza Force were either below or over a thousand. But Broly’s power far exceeded that. And it was proven. As Broly took a moment to stop and look, the aliens who were not knocked out or dead regrouped at the end of the hallway. Staring at the Saiyan in fear and horror.
“S-Such strength!”
“We can’t even hurt this guy!”
“H-Hay commander! What the heck is this guy’s power level!?”
As the solders looked over to their commander, he was already using his red scouter to measure Broly’s power. To their shock, the commander had a look of pure horror as he stared at the display screen. Numbers flashed as the beeping continued.
He then said what he saw on screen.
“Impossible! It’s over one hundred thousand!”
The ponies and dragon overheard what the alien said and too were taken back. They had no idea that the Saiyan's power would reach that high of a number. But to the shock of everyone in the room, the alien corrected himself.
“No! It’s two hundred thousand!”
The commander’s eyes only grew wider as the numbers continued to climb. Him reading out what the number said.
“Three hundred thousand! Four hundred thousand!! Five hundred thousand!! Six…!!!”
Before he could finish, his red scouter overloaded and explode into pieces. But the shock of the results scared him more than the small explosion to his face.
“HIS POWER IS OFF THE CHARTS!!!”
All eyes looked at Broly in both fear and awe. By how quickly the numbers changed prier to the scouter exploding, it was very possible that Broly’s power exceeded even what the alien said.
As Broly looked at the aliens cowering before him, his blank expression grew into a small smirk as he slightly raised his right fist to his side. Then as he opened his hand, the entire world suddenly changed green as the high-pitched sound was heard again. The green world condensed into the Saiyan’s open palm and formed into a small ball of green ki. Frightened at what he was about to do, the alien group quickly turned tail and ran away. Trying to find a way out.
But with one flex of his fingers, Broly released the ball of ki as it chased the aliens down the corridor. Quickly gaining on them. As one of the aliens turned around, the last thing he saw was the approaching green light.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
Outside the Canterlot castle, a green explosion was seen in one of the balconies. The blast destroying the door that lead outside. On the ground below the balcony, both citizens and the royal guards looked up to see what was happening.
On the balcony, Twilight, Luna, Celestia, Cadence and Shining Armor had emerged from the thick smoke from the blast. Coughing as they breathed some of it in. But as the smoke cleared enough for them to see, the royals were met with a frightening sight. High in the open sky, the alien spaceship was approaching the castle. Infront of the ship was a large army of alien solders. Armed and ready to fight to conquer Equestria in the name of Lord Frieza.
“There’s so many of them,” Shining Armor pointed out. Not expecting the enemy to have such numbers on their side.
“They’re all here,” Twilight added.
On the ground below, the guards and citizens were watching to see the confrontation of their world. Then they saw the rest of the group arrive beside the royals. Knowing some of them were the element bearers. And then to their surprise, another individual walked through the smoke and stood behind the princesses. He was unlike anything they had ever seen. A tall pale man with strange tattered clothes and no snout on his face.
Broly was standing out in the open. His red sash and black hair swaying in the wind. Despite the impending threat that laid in front of him, he couldn’t help but close his eyes and take a deep breath of fresh air through his nose. The first time he felt the breeze in a very long time.
“I thought they were heading towards Ponyville,” Spike mentioned.
“They must have picked up Broly’s power and came here,” Celestia said, seeing why the aliens chose to invade Canterlot instead.
As the aliens moved in closer, those at the very front spotted something out of the ordinary. Behind the natives was a Saiyan. A race they thought went extinct. Plus guessing that it was he who took out their front troops made them angry. They wanted to make him pay for defying them.
Intimidated by their numbers and at how sudden they arrived, the group stood fearfully at the invasion. It was like all the alien invaders had arrived to attack them. But were snapped out of it when they heard heavy footsteps behind them. Followed by a voice.
“Move aside. I’ll deal with them.”
Seeing that they were in his path, Celestia and Twilight stepped aside to let Broly through. All eyes watched him as he calmly walked on, with the lavender Alicorn questioning his motives.
“Broly? Can you really fight them all by yourself?”
“I don’t need help. These guys are pests,” Broly replied, sensing how pitiful the solders’ energy was.
He then stopped a couple of feet ahead of the group. Closing his eyes as he remembered what Twilight told him through his mind.
“Besides. You said that I was frozen for a very long time.”
The Saiyan continued as he opened his eyes. Intimidating the aliens with a confident yet sadistic look.
“My body could use a stretch.”
Rainbow Dash looked back to where they came from. Remembering Broly’s previous fight with the aliens.
“Then what was that?”
Instead of answering, Broly began to utilize his ki. With his clenched fists slightly raised to his sides, he began to levitate off the ground. His body slowly rising off the balcony. Aside from Celestia and Luna, the ponies and dragon were startled that like the aliens, the Saiyan too can fly without the use of magic or wings.
Twilight was first to snap out of it when she informed Broly of something important.
“Remember Broly. The citizens must not be harmed. Only attack the invaders.”
Getting tired of waiting around, the alien who’s second in command gave the order to attack Canterlot.
“Solders!! GIVE THEM EVERYTHING YOU GOT!!!”
The solders replied by bellowing out their war cries and charging towards the castle. Their main target was the royals and the Saiyan.
Looking to her side towards the ground below, Celestia could see the citizens and royal guards looking back. Frightened and concerned at what was happening. All of Canterlot was watching. So as she looked back at the Saiyan, the white Alicorn spoke out loudly for the citizens to hear. Letting them know that hope has arrived to save them. And that their new ally was the key to it.
“Now! This is the day we free ourselves and take back our world!!
She then threw her right arm out towards the invaders. Giving a command.
“DO IT, BROLY!!!”
As if on que with the princess’s command, Broly’s fighting instincts soared in a form of his battlecry.
“Grrr!! RRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!”
With one mighty thrust of ki, Broly launched himself straight towards the oncoming Frieza Force.
Using their full power, streams of white ki flowed from the aliens as they dashed across the sky. All heading towards the oncoming Saiyan. As four aliens attempt to block him off, Broly simply ploughed straight through them. Then with his fist ready, he threw a punch at another solder. Sending him hurtling back.
With more aliens entering the fray, they tried to swarm around Broly and attack him all at once. But soon as one got close, he would instantly repel it. After dealing a two-punch combo at one alien, he spun around to kick the approaching alien who tried to attack next. With the next one, he lunged forward and grabbed the red alien by the ankle. Then spinning around, Broly threw him into two others.
But as a blue alien found an opening, he landed a punch to Broly’s face. But to his shock, the punch had no effect. Then to his horror, the Saiyan placed his hand on his stomach…and then fired a pint-blank ki blast. The green light vaporized the alien instantly.
From seeing the sudden death of one of their own, a group of solders stopped in their tracks from fear.
“T-That guy was one of our elites! And he killed him so easily!”
Then as Broly turned towards them, green energy began to converge to his right hand. Then as he threw it towards the aliens, the green ball ki separated into countless more. The Trap Shooter technique. All the ki spheres homed in on the aliens, exploding on impact, wounding or killing the solders. But to those that dodged out of the way, Broly merely shifted his right hand and made his attacks turn back around. Striking the aliens in the back.
Most of the onlooking ponies were amazed. The Saiyan had full control of his attack and can move them at will. The ki was part of him after all.
Then as Broly turned around, he found himself surrounded by four elite solders. All pointing their palms at him.
“Fire!” One alien shouted. Him and the other three firing a strong ki blast at Broly’s direction.
At first, Broly didn’t move. But in a split second, he suddenly vanished before the attacks could hit. Causing the attacks to hit themselves and fooling the aliens to believe that they got him.
“Did we get him?” One alien asked as he stared into the large cloud of smoke.
But then his scouter bleeped. After looking at the screen, he read that something was above him. Looking up, all he saw was a large Saiyan ready to attack. Before he had time to react, Broly threw his fists down and smashed into the alien’s head. Crushing his skull in the process. Then after flying through the smoke, Broly surprised the other elite alien by quickly grabbing his neck.
On the other side of the smoke cloud, the two other elites could just see through the smoke Broly attacking their comrade.
“Got him!” One alien shouted as he and the other fired another powerful ki wave towards the Saiyan.
Broly saw the attacks coming and made a counter. By using the body of the alien he grappled, he used him as a meat shield. The alien screamed as the attacks hit him. Killing him on impact. The two remaining elites were horrified at the act. Then as Broly tossed the body aside, he went after them next. Grabbing the both of them by the ankles and heading towards the city below. As he got to ground level, he threw his arms down and smashed the two aliens into the pavement. The road cracked apart from the impact.
Back in the air, the remaining solders were starting to panic. Roughly half of their invasion force had already fell to the Saiyan. Some franticly looked around to try to find an edge over Broly. One of them spotted a mare running away while holding hands with her daughter.
The alien grew an evil grin. He could use them as hostages.
Diving down to ground level, the alien gave chase as he sped through the streets.
“Not so fast!”
Spooked by the approaching alien, the mare froze in fear as he held her daughter close. Not wanting to lose her. But before the alien could lay a finger on the two, Broly suddenly appeared in front of the alien and threw his right hand out. Firing a green energy blast that sent the alien bouncing across the road.
Broly briefly looked over his shoulder to inspect the two anthro ponies. While the two were surprised, they were mostly at awe from the fact that he saved them. Then Broly, remembering what Twilight said about not harming the citizens, tuned back around to see the alien trying to get back up from his tumble. Charging forward, Broly grabbed the alien’s face with his left hand and as he flew, pressed him against the tarmac. Dragging the pain-filled alien while making a long groove in the road.
Then as Broly dropped the lifeless alien, he looked ahead of him and saw another alien horde approaching him. Using his superior speed, the Saiyan quickly ascended up into the air. Then after pointing his arms down towards them, he fired several bursts of green ki. The aliens could only look up in despair as energy blasts rained down upon them. The invaders being caught up in the explosions while the streets were shrouded in smoke.
As Broly ceased attacking, he noticed that he was once again surrounded by the enemy. Some of which had recovered from his earlier attacks. But despite being outnumbered, Broly’s smile only grew bigger.
“Keep them coming. I’m barely warmed up,” He said quietly to himself.
As the fight carried on, the royals, the Mane Six, Starlight and Spike continued to watch on from their balcony. Most were amazed that the Saiyan was able to turn the tide in their favour.
“Wow. He’s roasting them,” Starlight spoke out. Seeing how easily Broly was beating the invaders.
“I know he’s strong. But to singlehandedly fight off an alien invasion is truly something else,” Cadence added.
While the group were busy watching the battle, Rainbow Dash felt like joining in. But she knew very well that she would only get in the way of Broly. But she had an idea. She quickly turned back towards the corridor and rushed through it.
While Celestia and Luna were glad that they were finally winning against the alien invasion, the two couldn’t help but wonder about Broly and his power. The aliens recognized him as a ‘Saiyan’. Since the aliens knew what species Broly belonged to, could that mean that he too was an alien? And if so, what was he doing in Equestria thousands of years ago? His power was also something else. Despite overwhelming the aliens, the two Alicorns could tell that Broly wasn’t using his full power. In fact, back when Broly’s hair was blond and spikey, his power was tremendously greater than what he was showing. They didn’t know why that was the case, but it was something to take in consideration. Especially since Broly was far more aggressive in that state.
Their concentration was broken when they heard a voice.
“Alright, time to fight back! Man, this is heavy.”
Turning around, the group saw Rainbow Dash emerging back onto the balcony. But to their surprise, she was wearing one of the weapons some of the aliens used. A backpack with a cable attached to the right wrist blaster. She was struggling to stand up straight from the weight of the load.
“Rainbow! What are you doing?” Twilight asked in concern.
The blue Pegasus looked back at her friend with determination.
“What? I’m not just going to stand here and do nothing.”
Rainbow Dash then inspected the wrist blaster.
“Now… how does this thing work?”
To her surprise, her finger pressed a button within the handle of the gun. Immediately firing a blue laser beam into the air and to her amazement, struck an alien solder in the back. Distracting him long enough for Broly to spot him and attack.
“Oh, ok here we go.”
“Be careful with that thing,” Shining Armor said nervously.
Trying her best to keep the heavy weapon steady, Rainbow Dash tried to take a few potshots at the aliens that weren’t close to Broly. While most of her shots missed, some had landed. One of which struck the alien on the back of the head. Knocking him out cold.
“Oh yeah! Got him!”
Back in the air, one alien fired a powerful purple beam that struck Broly. At first, he thought he had bested the Saiyan. But to his shock, Broly was unscaved. And attacked back by doing the same attack but with a green beam. The Saiyan’s power vaporized the alien from existence. As another solder attempted to sneak up on Broly, the Saiyan elbowed him in the face and followed up with a strong kick to the chest. Then as the alien was hurtling through the air, Broly caught up with him and grabbed his leg. After spotting more incoming aliens, Broly swung the grappled alien into them. Swatting them aside with the solder’s body.
The second-in-command alien and his group all held back beside the saucer to watch on in horror. The battle had become a slaughter. Despite being on his own, the Saiyan showed no signs of slowing down. With their troops drooping in numbers, he had to think of something fast. Otherwise Broly would kill them next.
Looking down towards the Canterlot Castle, he saw a group of anthro ponies watching the battle from their balcony. As well as seeing one of them handling one of their weapons, he noticed that five of the ponies were of royalty. If they fell, then all hopes of resistance would die with them. With his idea, him and his group moved in for the kill.
“Up there!” Twilight called out. Spotting the aliens approaching them.
“I got it!” Rainbow Dash confidently said as he aimed the alien wrist blaster in the direction of the alien solders.
She fired it without hesitation. But what they didn’t know was that the second-in-command alien was somewhat stronger than the others. As the beam approached him, he merely smacked it aside. Seeing the strength of the alien shocked the ponies below.
“What!?” Rainbow Dash cried out. Not expecting the counter.
Fed up of dealing with the natives of Equestria, the alien pointed his open palm at them and prepared to attack.
“Say your prayers!” The alien shouted before firing a red ball of ki towards them. His first target was Twilight.
After receiving a sudden bad feeling, Broly looked over his shoulder and vanished from sight.
From seeing the red ball of death speeding towards her, the lavender Alicorn froze in fear as she raised her arms in front of her face. But in mere seconds, Broly appeared in front of her and took the hit to the chest. Causing an explosion which was followed by a cloud of smoke. Everything happened so fast, Cadence thought that the worst had happened.
“No! Twilight!” She called out.
Thankfully as the smoke cleared, Twilight was seen standing. As she opened her eyes and looked up, she couldn’t believe what she was seeing. Broly willingly took the hit to shield her from the attack. Which in turn, the attack did no harm to him. All the others too were stunned as they saw the hovering Saiyan. He then glared up at the saucer above.
“That does it! Maximum firepower!!” The alien shouted as he prepared to charge up all his energy into his strongest attack. All the other aliens whom were still alive all gathered beside their second commander. They too charged up their ki and wrist basters to their absolute max.
Celestia and Luna became concerned. With the amount of power combined of the aliens, their onslaught could destroy the castle and the city very easily. Their attention was shifted when Broly rose higher from the balcony. Grunting angrily as he clenched his fists.
But before his anger could continue to grow, something within him was telling him not to lose control. He found it odd. He usually preferred to embrace his hatred and kill everything in sight. But something was telling him not to. Could it be from the fact that he was using his abilities to protect instead of destroy? He couldn’t figure it out. But with that built up his frustration. Of which he would take it out on the aliens.
From feeling his energy bubbling from within, Broly let out a mighty cry as his body became engulfed in white surging ki. His clothes and hair flowing as his aura blew air all around him. The group below had to shield their eyes as blasts of wind whipped through them. The magic casters especially felt the Saiyan’s energy rising higher by the second. The winds blowing through their hair and tails as they watched Broly retaliate. After he stopped screaming, Broly reared his right arm back before green light appeared in his half-closed palm. Preparing a weaker version of the Full Power Energy Blast attack. A Quarter Power Energy Blast.
As well as the ponies on the balcony, all of Canterlot was watching as the final clash was about to happen.
“FIRE!!!” The second commander shouted as he and all the alien solders opened fire. All their different coloured energy beams combined into a giant beam of mass destruction. Aimed directly for the castle and the awaiting Saiyan.
But Broly was ready for them as he countered.
“HHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!”
After letting out an echoing scream, Broly threw his right hand out and fired a massive green beam. To the amazement of the ponies and to the horror of the aliens, Broly’s attack ploughed straight through the alien’s combined attack and kept on going. The aliens screamed in agony as the beam engulfed them completely. Instantly erasing them from existence. But as the attack kept going, it slammed into the underside of the alien spaceship and pushed it higher and higher into the open sky. But just as the saucer cleared the atmosphere, the space craft exploded. The giant green blast could be seen on the ground as the sound of the explosion soon followed. Afterwards, nothing was left of the alien ship. Only the dead bodies scattered throughout the city was what’s left of the invaders.
With the threat gone, Broly lowered both his arm and his energy. His white aura retreating back into his body.
On the balcony, the group were amazed and in awe at what transpired. The alien invaders, whom menaced them and threatened their way of life, were no more.
“I… don’t believe it,” Rarity uttered. Her voice quietened from the shock.
“He… he did it. We won. We’ve beaten them!” Twilight called out.
But then… a noise caught their ears. But it wasn’t hostile. Instead… it sounded like… cheering. Looking down, the group saw that all of Canterlot began to celebrate their victory over the aliens invaders. Cheering loudly as their lives had been saved. But when Broly looked down to see them cheering, he was taken back. No one had ever cheered or supported him when he battled in the past. Everyone had always feared him and his immense power. But after what he’d done for Equestria, they were happy for him. The experience was so new to him, he felt truly confused. But instead of fussing about it, he slowly descended back onto the balcony.
Unsure of what was happening, Broly watched as most of the group approached him. With Celestia and Twilight in front of them with smiles on their faces.
“You did it, Broly! You helped save our world!” Twilight cheered.
“Thank you, Broly. You don’t know how much this victory means for us,” Celestia added.
Again the Saiyan was puzzled. He remembered moments ago that he tried to attack the group back in the castle. But after helping them against the aliens, they acted as though it didn’t happen. Again, Broly being new to protecting life rather than destroying it.
Then Starlight walked up beside Celestia with a questionable look.
“There’s just one thing, princess. What do we do now?”
The White Alicorn was about to answer when she realised that Starlight made a very good point. And it’s a very big question. What DO they do now? Celestia really hadn’t thought THAT far through with the plan of releasing Broly. They needed his help in fighting the aliens. But since he had fulfilled their need of help, what now?
Their thinking was interrupted by a very loud grumbling sound that took them by surprise. Looking in the direction of where the sound came from, they were surprised further when it turned out to be from… Broly’s stomach.
“I’m hungry,” He simply said.
“Wow. That’s a loud stomach,” Applejack said.
Some of the group smiled from the realisation. Broly had been fighting off an alien army after being freed from being imprisoned in stone for thousands of years. No wonder he was hungry.
Then Celestia had a great idea of how to repay Broly’s efforts.
“I know. How about we celebrate our victory with a big banquet.”
“That’s a great idea,” Twilight agreed before turning towards Broly. The young girl simply overjoyed that he helped them against the invasion.
“You’re going to enjoy our food. I bet you’ll eat your whole plate.”
Then the Saiyan asked her a question.
“Just one plate?”
The Princess of Friendship gave the Saiyan of Legend a confused look.
“O-of course. Why?”
Broly replied as he gave her a blank expression. Realising that the ponies had no idea what they're in for.
“I’m going to need a lot more.”
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
Elsewhere, several more lifeless bodies of the aliens were found. Fallen from the sky when Broly destroyed their saucer. But from a nearby forest, five individuals emerged and approached the corpses. While one appeared to have a silver metal body, the other four were wearing battle uniforms similar to those of the Frieza Force.
A small alien inspected the solders before chuckling.
“Pitiful. The Frieza Force must be very weak if they fell to the creatures here.”
A second alien, who was his twin, joined in.
“But this world is far from their usual territory. How did they get here?”
The biggest alien gave his thoughts on a possibility.
“Maybe the same way we arrived. I don’t remember what happened after our fight with that bastard Kakarot.”
An alien who was shorter than him added his thoughts.
“First we’re on Earth, then we’re here.”
The alien with the robot body spoke out to his comrades.
“Should we start our conquest of this planet?”
The five of them suddenly heard footsteps behind them. Turning around, the five saw their boss emerged from the darkness. Revealing his dark blue battle uniform and a red scouter. In his right hand he held a small green seed.
“Don’t be hasty. We need to see what this planet has in store for us. I highly doubt that the inhabitants here have the power to fend off these solders on their own,” He said as he tightly gripped the seed in his hand.
When he faced in one direction, his scouter started to gain readings of a distant city. Lots of low power levels, which he guessed were citizens. A hand full that are just over a hundred, and…
But then his scouter showed several lines instead of numbers. It was that that caught him off guard.
“Strange. Everyone else is barely a hundred, yet there’s one who’s power level is unreadable.”
His suspicions were correct. Someone powerful must've helped the natives of the planet. The individual looked in the direction of the city with an evil grin on his face.
“Let’s go and investigate.”
