//------------------------------// // Volume I: The Visitor // Story: Lynx; The Saiyan Warrior of Equestria // by AlienXtreme //------------------------------// An earie lack of noise is an unnerving familiar feeling during a hot summer’s day. With everypony avoiding as much exposure to sunlight due to the hot sun, everything was unimaginably static. Twilight, just like any other day, is reading one Starswirl’s volumes of magic for beginners with Owlicious accompanying her, and as she was just to turn to the next page, an incomprehensibly loud explosion disturbed her noon affairs. She rushed outside as quickly as she could to see what the commotion was about. As she opened the library door, smoke filled the Ponyville town square resembling huge forests fires. The smoke was beginning to cleanse, and a circular shape started to form. As the smoke settled a mystifying sphere was fully realized. Twilight started to approach the strange object with outmost care and a very slow gait but as she was nearing, the sphere opened in two, revealing a perplexing creature that even she with her extensive knowledge could not recall. The creature seemed to be comprised of four limbs, but it was only standing with the two. Its vertically elongated body seemed most bizarre with its very short snout, spiky pink mane and small grey eyes. Even its attire was peculiar, ostensibly a soldier type cold black uniform and yellow and white pattern vest and boots with white gloves, wearing a golden-colored amulet with a weird symbol that resembles Celestia's Cutie Mark. The whole situation was surreal for Twilight and could not distinguish between threat or innocence, so she adhered to side of caution and she prepared for battle. However as she was readying up an immobilization spell, the creature fell to the ground unconscious. Upon this turn of events, it was clear that the creature was greatly injured and of no threat yet, so Twilight used levitation and hurried him to her bed to nurse him and study him. She moves frantically through the library reading every book she could find with slightest mention about creatures outside of Equestria, although the knock of the library door halted her thought cohesion and when she opened the door to find Rainbow dash along with the rest of her friends behind her. "Twilight are you ok?! What was that thing?!" Rainbow Dash says, as she grabbed Twilight's cheeks but Twilight freed herself using teleportation. "I don't know, nothing in my books even comes close to what this could be!" Twilight explained, as she walks back to the group."Fluttershy you think you can help me?" She added. "Um...I'm not sure Twilight, if your books didn't help, how could I?" Fluttershy said. "Come on, y'all stop chitchatting so we can figure out what that monster is." Applejack said. "Couldn't agree more, darling!" Rarity agreed, as she opens the door. "Oooh, investigation time!" Pinkie said, as she walked in , while wearing an Inspector Gadget coat. They quickly climbed the stairway. Fluttershy studied it a bit but just like Twilight, she couldn't figure out what it is. "Wh-what is that Fluttershy?" Rainbow asks. "I-I have no idea." "Me neither, but it looks mysteeeerious!" Pinkie dashes and starts touching its limbs but while trying to find out what this is , she rouses it. "Wh-What the...what the hell?!" The creature wakes up surprised. "Where am I?!" "WHO ARE YOU?!" He quickly gets up from the bed. "Hi I'm Pinkie Pie, and this Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Twilight Sparkle." Pinkie said, pointing at her friends. "Who are you and what kind of creature are you?!" Rainbow asserts, getting ready to fight if necessary. "My name is Lynx, you low-life , I am the prince of every single Saiyan there is!" Lynx claimed while pointing at himself. "Why did you brought me here?!" He adds. "A Saiyan? I've never heard that before. Maybe I should contact Princess Celestia." Twilight thought to herself. "We brought you here because Twilight didn't want you to die." Applejack responds to his question. "Is that so? Well then don't bother, I'm not going to accept help from ponies!" Lynx denied Applejack's response and crossed his arms. "I'm out of here." He adds. Upon this turn of events, he creates a never-seen-before white ,flame like, aura and flies away, even though he doesn't have pegasus' wings, making a hole at Twilight's Library's roof. Twilight and her friends get out of the library. Lynx flies through the whole town and sees a lot of ponies being scared of his sight, which makes him grin. He soonly finds a cave outside of the town and decides to rest there . "Heh...I guess this should do the job for now." He talks to himself as he enters the cave. "Wow, this is a big one. I would say, it is around 500cm." Giving his current residence one final look, Lynx nods in improvement, before turning around and taking a battle stance, facing the opposite. He feels his inner energy ran through his body as he focuses it on the palms of his hands, an action so natural to him at this point, that he needs less than a thought to perform. With a battle cry that echoes of the stone wall, he pushes that energy out of his hand, a ball of energy blasting towards the wall, only for it to bounce back at him, its speed not even diminishing a little. In fact, the Saiyan notes with pleasure, it seems to have picked up speed as he dodges it, taking the opportunity to through several other identical balls all around the room. He gets no more than a moment to appreciate his handy work, before the young prince is forced to dodge again and again, as the balls of Ki keep on bouncing around the room, threatening to strike him down. The real training begins now. Meanwhile Twilight and her friends start watching him from afar. "Wow, th-this guy is pretty good." Rainbow is left speechless by Lynx's power. "You are right Rainbow Dash, even though he is greatly injured, maybe he could be a great ally for Equestria." Fluttershy agrees with Rainbow's statement. "A-Are you sure about that Fluttershy? He is an outsider after all..." Spike shakes in fear. "Have you ever heard of the word Irony?" Applejack nods. "Hehe...He looks like a funny guy alright." Pinkie eats a cupcake. "Whatever the case is girls, we should be careful to how we approach him?" Twilight says, with small tone of worrying in her voice. Two hours passed and Lynx continues this routine, and even though he is severely damaged from his travel, he manages to continue this routine perfectly. That is until he missed a counter-attack, which results to him getting blasted by all the others, and starts falling to the ground. "I got ya!" Rainbow yells, as she bolts so he can catch him and she succeeds on doing so. "Come on, let's get you to the hospital, you look hurt." Rarity says. "No, I...I am a Saiyan! I need no one's help! Now put me down, you animal!" Lynx asserts, barely keeping himself conscious. "Ugh! Okay we get it! You're a tough guy, but you need to let others care about you too!" Rainbow dishes him. "Nobo...dy..." He falls unconcious ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Oh, come on! He is a guy in pain, can't you just help him a little bit?" Twilight yells at the staff. "The rules are simple Mrs. Sparkle, if he's not pony then he's not gonna get treated! Why should we cure him?" "Because I say so!" Princess Celestia orders the nurse pony. The nurse quickly moves Lynx and she puts him to a hospital bed. She puts a hospital oxygen cylinder on his mouth. "Um...Princess Celestia, do you know anything about the Saiyans?" Twilights asks Celestia. "Not much, the only thing me and Luna know about this race is that they are a furious warrior alien race." Celestia remarks. "Alien? I had never thought about that! Once he wakes up I'm going to ask him everything about his kind!" Twilight says, with a face full of excitement to learn. "I don't know Twilight, doesn't he seem kind of s-scary to you?" Spike asks, terrified. "Hmm, I don't know Spike, should we gift and take away virtues based on anypony's appearance? This is not the foundation of friendship this land was endowed and built upon and even if it was, this shall not be our legacy nor our destiny." Celestia cautions them. An hour passed ,Celestia and the girls are still in waiting to see what will happen to him and Lynx is still in bed, unconscious hooked up to the oxygen cylinder. "I know this might sound strange, when he is sleeping he looks so peaceful and innocent like...like my little sister." Applejack points it out. "You know, Applejack, a warrior always shows what is in his heart by the way he rests in the bed." Celestia remarks. "Really?" Pinkie questions Celestia. "Yes, if he rests on the right side, that means that he is not trusting the environment and he's vigilant. But if he rests on the left side, that means that he feels secured and he has a desire to protect those, who he cares about." Celestia informs the group. "B-But what does it have to do with that? He sleeps at the center." Twilight asks Princess Celestia. "Well if he sleeps at the center , then that means that he is not sure about what to do with his situation. Perhaps one da..." "Girls it's an emergency a Maulwurf is attacking Ponyville!" Spike informs them. "On it!" The mane 6 say all together. Twilight teleports them to where the Maulwurf is located. Meanwhile, Celestia stays at the hospital to watch over Lynx. He finally wakes up.
