Vegeta flew around a forest the ponies call "The Everfree Forest", he's been trying to sense the ki of Nightmare Moon, but can't sense her. 'Dammit, why can't I sense her. It's like they don't use ki here." the prince was broken out of thought when he heard the flapping of wings behind him. He turns around to see the rainbow mane pegasus following him, "What do you want skittles?" Vegeta jokes. "First off, my name isn't skittles, it's Rainbow Dash. And second, I and my friends know where you could find Nightmare Moon." Rainbow explained. Vegeta stops and hovers in place, "You better explain quickly before I blow up that mountain over there." as Vegeta points behind him. "Alright buddy, but Twilight was looking for the Elements of Harmony and she knows where they are. It happens to be the same place Nightmare Moon is heading." Skittles explains. Vegeta seemed intrigued, so he decided to play along. "Alright, I'll follow, but don't expect any help from me." Vegeta then follows Rainbow Dash back to her friends. They land next to the group and walks towards them. "So, you decided to help fella?" Applejack questioned, only to get a scoff from Vegeta. "I didn't come to help, I'm just tagging along until you lot find this so-called, 'Nightmare Moon' character. Now, lead the way." Vegeta then crosses his arms, waiting to go. "Well, aren't you a cheery pon... thing," Twilight responds, not getting a response from the Prince. "Well let's go, we got to save the planet from eternal darkness!" That caught Vegeta's attention. "Eternal Darkness now that sounds interesting, tell me about it on the way." "Long ago, the two Princesses ruled over Equestria, the oldest sister ruling the day, rasing the sun. The youngest sister got control over the night, protecting Equestria at night. But the youngest sister got jealous, she watched her servants relish in the day, having fun. While at night, they all rested, not noticing her beautiful night. She finally had enough, she decided not to lower the moon that night. But her jealousy made her into Nightmare Moon, they both battled for hours until the Oldest sister used the Elements of Harmony. The strongest weapons in all the lands, she used them to trap Nightmare Moon on the moon for a thousand years." "So, are you telling me your rulers can move the sun and the moon?!" Vegeta was simply shocked, 'How can such being's exist?' "Yes, also... Do you mind if I ask some questions about you?" Twilight wondered. "I don't" Twilight jumped with joy, magically appearing a piece of paper and quill out of nowhere. This would be the first question she'd ask from an alien race. "Right first question, what are Saiyans?" "We are the ultimate warrior race, we strive for combat and look for the strongest in the universe to challenge." Twilight was writing Vegeta's answer down quickly, "Next question, what happened before you arrived here?" This question made Vegeta stop eminently. The 6 then started to feel the pressure and wind pick up. "Don't... you... dare... ask... me... that... question. Do you understand!" Vegeta spat out in anger, not wanting to remember what happened a couple of hours ago. "Y... yes sir... right next question." This would go on for two hours before they got to the location. It was the castle of the two sisters, it was out of shape. The roofs caved in, most of the walls were down, debris everywhere. "Is this the place?" Vegeta looked at the ancient castle, 'Man, this castle reminds me of the one back on Planet Vegeta.' "Yes, it is, now... where are the Elements?" Twilight and the rest of the group, minus Vegeta. looked around until Pinkie found them. "Looky here, I found them Twilight." there were 5 stones with there own symbol embedded in the circular stones. Vegeta crossed his arms and started chuckling. "These are you're so-called 'Strongest weapons in Equestria', don't make me laugh." All Vegeta got was glares from all the ponies, but he didn't pay much attention to them. He was more focused on the mist entering the area, disguised as the night sky. "I'd get those so-called weapons out of here." "Now why 's that?" Rainbow asked, not noticing the mist sneaking behind them. Vegeta aimed his hand at Rainbow, shocking her, "Get down Skittles, now!" The Prince yells. At that moment, the mist formed into Nightmare Moon. Rainbow ducked, not wanting to get hit by Vegeta, "Big Bang Attack!" A blue ball of energy left the hand of Vegeta and struck Nightmare Moon in the face, sending her into a wall. "That's why, now you go figure out how to use the elements, i'll hold off Moonbutt." Vegeta then transforms, surprised the group. "What... did you just do?!" Applejack saw Vegeta's Hair turn from a dark brown to a golden shine, his eyes changed from dark coal to a cyan green. A fiery golden inferno surrounded the Prince. "It's called Super Saiyan, now try to figure out how to use the Elements!" With that, Vegeta rushed towards Nightmare Moon and stops 4 feet away from her, "Get back up moony, that blast was only a love tap." "Damn it! I will end you!" Nightmare moon gets in a stance, powering up her horn full of magic. Vegeta being the cocky bastard he is, dropping his hands to his side and grew a cocky grin, "You'll die trying." Nightmare Moon fired multiple magic blasts at Vegeta, but being the idiot he is, he took the blast head on. "No Vegeta!" Twilight yelled, but to her surprise. When the dust fell, she couldnt find the Prince. "Didnt think it was going to be that easy." Nightmare started to laugh, untill she heard a voice above her. "Because it isnt moonbutt, look above you." Nightmare looked up to see Vegeta surrouned in a cirular purple aura, coupling his hands above his side. "Let's see if you could take this one! Galick... Gun..." "Run!" the group ran away with the Elements of Harmony in tow, but Rainbow stayed behind. "Rainbow, what are you doing, we have to get out of here!" Twilight yelled. "I can't leave Vegeta behind! I don't want him to get hurt." "FIRE!!!!" "Well, son of a...!" Nightmare Moon couldnt take the blast, but prepared a magic spell to counter it. It ended up in a clash of ki and magic. "Don't think this attack will stop me monkey!" This struck a nerve in Vegeta, reminding him of Frieza. "I'm A Saiyan!" Vegeta transforms once again, his hair becomes even spiker now and bio-electricity is form around him, He's gone Super Saiyan 2. Things are starting to heat up for our hero's, Vegeta has transformed into a Super Saiyan 2. Will he win the batlle, or will there be eternal darkness. Find out next time!
