//------------------------------// // Chapter 1: 52 years later // Story: The Saiyan // by Blood fallen //------------------------------// It was a warm afternoon in Ponyville the skies were clear the birds chirped happily and Fluttershy was putting food out for her animal friends that she was treating back to health from one ailment to another. The day had been quite uneventful thus far, well except for another pony or two thanking her for the part she had played in defeating Nightmare Moon only a few days ago which made her hide behind her pink main, after she had finished putting the animal feed out for her friends Fluttershy took the bag of food back into her house and began making her own food ready for later due to it being a bit too warm for eating at the moment. "I'm going to see what my friends are doing today Angel, behave while I'm gone." She said walking out the door as the small white rabbit gave her a military salute. When Fluttershy arrived in town she caught a glimpse of a distinct cowpony hat next to a head of dark hair that hat a purple and pink streak running through it and began walking over, after only a few moments she got close enough to see a her friends clearly and over heard a bit of what they were talking about. "I'm telling ya, I know what I saw Twi." Applejack said in a clearly frustrated tone as she face palmed. "Oh come on A.J, you don't expect me to believe you saw a black and white flying saucer with yellow lumps on it and one central window, not even Spike would believe that." Twilight said in response as the two looked over a fruit stand. "Maybe you forgot in the last few days, but the element of honesty chose me to be it's new bearer, so you know basically I don't lie." Applejack said only getting more annoyed at the Canterlot bookworm. "Hi guys what are you talking about?" Fluttershy asked hoping to put a stop to this argument before they drew unwanted attention. "Applejack thinks she saw an alien and a flying saucer last night." Twilight explained putting her hands on her hips. "And I did." Applejack said almost getting into Twilight's personal space. "Come on Twilight, Applejack is the element of honesty right, that means she must have seen something looked like an alien and a flying saucer." Fluttershy said placing a soft hand on each of there shoulders. "Really Shy, your taking her side after I went out my way to bring you those heavy bags of animal feed this morning?" Applejack asked with a raised eyebrow. "It's not like that." Fluttershy said raising her hands defensively. "I just don't want us to fight now that we're the new element bearers." She added bashfully. "Fair enough Shy, I'm sorry for blaming you sugar cube." Applejack said pulling Fluttershy into a strong hug almost crushing her. "I guess we can always talk about this another time." Twilight said reluctantly. "So... lunch, I'll pay?" Twilight asked. "Well how can I say no to that." A.J said with a smirk. "I could use a bite to eat as well." Fluttershy said as she followed Twilight and Applejack to a nearby café. Meanwhile in space a Frieza force ship was rapidly approaching Equis getting closer with every passing second. "Hay Doc, remind me what we're doing with this Saiyan?" The ship piolet asked not tacking his eyes from the empty space before him as stars passedthem as little more than blurs. The doctor a thin light blue skinned female looked to the piolet of the ship for a moment before turning back to the unconscious Saiyan before her. "We are to drop him off in safe area and leave." the Doctor answered administering a strong sedative to keep Rodas under. "Fair enough, but I thought Lord Frieza hated Saiyans and wanted to kill what's left of them?" the piolet asked. "He dose, but after that brut Broly went out of control on Earth he wants to see what this Saiyan is capable of and if he may be useful in the future." the Doctor said. The two spent the next few hours in relative silence of say for the odd comment of how the sleeping Rodas was doing, when they arrived at Equis they dropped Rodas off in a field near an all too familiar settlement. Some time later. Fluttershy was in her living room reading a book she had borrowed from Twilight, the book was a romance novel that Rarity had recommended about a forbidden love between two rival clans she was just getting into the part where the love interest of the main character was introduced when a sudden hard knock kame from the door. Going to the door Fluttershy opened it to find one of the bears she knew on the other side. "Oh hello Mr.Bear, is something wrong?" She asked, but the bear pointed a claw back towards a fiald with a grown. "What, there's something you want me to see?" She asked and the bear nodded. A short time later Fluttershy and the bear stood before the unconscious body of the Saiyan Rodas, she looked at the alien in wide eyed amazement as he lay there out cold wearing only his Freiza force battle armor which was made of out dated materials, the comically large shoulder pads making him look ridiculous to Fluttershy. "Oh my." She said looking over the sleeping alien unaware of how dangerous he truly was when awake. "Mr.Bear could you carry him on your back to my house?" She asked and the friendly bear nodded. After some effort Fluttershy managed to get the unconscious Saiyan onto the back of the bear and back to her house, when they got there they placed Rodas on the couch and Fluttershy went straight to Twilight's library to tell her about the alien currently sleeping in her living room.
