"I Hate Magic!"
Piccolo and Trunks hit the ground as the seven-star ball erupted into fragments and an explosion rocked the field. What had just happened? Dragon Balls are supposed to be near invincible. What kind of force would it take to cause that much damage to one of them that they exploded.
Piccolo suddenly became aware of one other thing, as the bellowing cry of Shenron could be heard all around like a theater room. One of the Dragon Balls had just self-destructed, and that meant Shenron was dying.
The mighty green dragon thrashed and howled as his body was overcome with an ungodly amount of pain before he finally froze; his eyes extinguishing before he exploded away in a magnificent blast. The force leveled even the trees on the far ends of the field, an Piccolo had to hang on to Trunks who was hanging onto Vegeta's body while hiding hem all to he ground with what little grip he could get.
When the winds finally died down, the namekian looked at the remaining six Dragon Balls. Just as he had expected, they were stone orbs no longer useful to anyone anymore.
"Goku...King Kai..." He said, not quite sure what to say. "w-what happened..?"
* * *
"What do ya mean the Dragon Balls exploded?!" Apple Bloom shouted, accidently scaring Goten off his chair by the couch she lay on.
"Well, only one of them exploded, and it was the seven-star ball." Goku told her again. "The only problem is I have no real idea how or why. Piccolo is looking around for anyone who might have possibly broken it from afar, but there's no other energy levels at all in the area..."
King Kai looked as though he were brooding; a serious expression upon his features
"You don't know, because you don't understand magic, Goku." He said finally.
Goku and the others looked over to King Kai in confusion. Magic definitely was not a strong point of Goku's, but he knew it existed. What was King Kai talking about?
"Sapphic comes from Equestria, Goku." the kai explained. "Even though he isn't an alicorn or a unicorn, the fact he has bipedal features due to his saiyan blood means he may not have to follow he same rules as other ponies from that dimension."
Applejack raised an eyebrow. "Are you sayin' a non-unicorn used magic to destroy your Dragon Ball?"
King Kai nodded once.
"But...that's impossible.." Apple Bloom cut in, trying to stand up, but not being used to her new legs, she sat back down quickly. "If he didn't have a horn, how can he use magic at all?"
"In our dimension there are beings called sorcerers and wizards." King Kai told her. "They study the magical arts, and some have to train for decades before they master it, and they can do it without horns. Seeing as how Sapphic is the son of Chrysalis, who was able to use magic, it's only natural he would be adept in the ways of wizardry. He probably mastered some high level spells and curses in the time he took here in our dimension."
So, magic was present here too, and not just in the form of Dragon Balls.
"Do....do you think Sapphic put a hex on the seven-star ball?" The young mare turned young woman asked.
The kai contemplated this, and finally nodded after a few moments. "I believe that must be it. A timed spell or maybe a trigger spell; something to stop it from being destroyed until he could use them...or maybe the trigger was his own wish, and it juts had a timer on it. We can't really know for sure."
There was silence, but then Goku snapped his fingers; he had apparently thought of something.
"I know a way to find out." He said. "If Baba is in Otherworld, I can go find her and ask her what's up with the remains of the Dragon Ball! She'll be able to tell us for sure if it was cursed."
"Who's Baba?" Apple Bloom asked, now once again having another name with no face to it.
"Baba is a witch who's a friend of mine." Goku told her. "She can do all sorts f crazy magic stuff, and see things with her crystal ball. If I tell her to go down and see the shards of the ball, she can tell us what's up."
"A smart idea, Goku, but ultimately, it doesn't matter. What's done is done, and the only one who can fix the ball is Dende; and sine Shenron just died, I assume he already knows of what's happened." King Kai said matter-of-factly. "Besides, you said you had a plan for these three here."
"Oh, that's right." Goku remembered, turning to Apple Bloom, Goten, and Applejack. "Though I only have a plan for Apple Bloom and Goten here...sorry Applejack, but I can only bring these two where I'm headed; Supreme Kai's rules."
Applejack waved a hoof to signify it was alright. Apple Bloom on the other hoof...or...hand...was curious about why Goku could only bring her and Goten. Why couldn't her sister come along? What was keeping him from taking all three of them?
"Goku," She spoke up. "why only me and Goten..?"
Goku looked down at Apple Bloom with a confident smile. "Now that you have a new body you can transform into and out of at will..."
She can change back at anytime? She needed to practice that.
"...your power can be properly honed by it. But we have to escalate your pace of training now that Equestria is in danger...I don't know how once we're done that we're going to get there without the Dragon Balls though...Dende would need at least fifty days to recreate the seven-star ball, and the Namekians on Namek have used there's recently, so they're stone as well. We don't have time to wait for those balls to shine again."
Apple Bloom looked down in thought. So the training was being accelerated, and Goku was planning some high speed stuff it seemed.
"But while we're figuring that out, I have a couple ways we're going to make both you and Goten stronger in less than three days. It's a multi-step plan, but if it goes off without a hitch, it's foolproof!"
Bothe Apple Bloom and Goten's faces shot up in surprise. Only three days, and Goku thought they'd be strong enough to fight that monster Sapphic. How in the heck were they going to get that strong in three days when not even Goku, who'd trained for decades, could do it.
Then another thought occurred to Apple Bloom...would Equestria be able to survive for three days while she honed her so-called hidden power....
* * *
"You're royal highness'!" One of the royal guards shouted breathlessly as he galloped into the throne room of Celestia and Luna.
The two sisters looked down at the their soldier, and motioned for him to speak. The poor stallion seemed completely out of breath, and his eyes were pinprick pupils. Something awful must have happened.
He bowed before them hastily as he spoke. "I bring horrible news...the son of Queen Chrysalis was sighted not far outside of Appaloosa!"
Celestia and Luna gasped in unison, and exchanged worried looks.
"I thought...I thought we had finished him years ago after Shining Armor and Cadence defeated his mother.." Celestia breathed.
Her younger sister nodded. "So did I."
The princesses turned back to the unicorn guard, who still bowed before them.
"Do we know what he wants?"
The white stallion in the gold armor stood. "We aren't sure yet, your majesty. But we can only assume it isn't good."
Celestia looked thoughtful for a moment, her mind trying to decide what to do. Surely it was up to them to deal with Prince Sapphic in the end, but they would need time to prepare; it had been many years since they had to fight someone of Sapphic's caliber.
Levitating a scroll and quill to her, she began to write.
"My dearest Princess Twilight Sparkle; it seems you and your friends will be needed once more..."

Yeah I kinda of figured it was either the SD or some trap left behind by Sapphic. You could always have the Shadow Dragons, by which I mean the ones you like, come in later for a sequel. That is if you plan on making a sequel.
But anyway this is turning out to be really good! Look out Sapphic Mystic/Ultimate Apple Bloom is on her way!
5768496 Keep reading, friend :)
5768477 Well, if enough people want a sequel when it's all over, I could probably think something up XD
FUCKING JACKASSES!
Sheesh! Just like, I don't know, HUG and BE FRIENDS!
Also, I'm perfectly okay with you killing the Mane Six.
Why do I sound like a jackass?
Because this follows DBZ closely.
Capische?
Dragon Balls and the Saiyan Family AND the Elements of Harmony.
See where I'm going with this?
Three Deus Ex Machina Cannons in one story!

If you want any suggestions for the sequel let me know, I can pitch some ideas. Part of the reason why it takes me so long to update/write. A new idea comes and completely derails the flow of my original train of thought.
OH! See if you can find someone to draw fanart based on this story it would be awesome!
5768555 If somebody made fanart of scenes in this story I would gush XD
Twilight won't stand a chance against Sapphic. You need BOTH marital arts and magic to win.
Well, Twilight needs her friends, but Applejack is dead. But the third wish was for anyone who died in the vicinity of Applebloom to be revived. This would unfortunately not bring back Vegeta, but it would bring back Goten and possibly Applejack? Maybe? I just kinda want to see her alive again in Equestria, so that she can explain stuff to Twilight and the rest of their friends.
Also a few questions, to get to King Kai's planet from snakeway, don't you have to be able to fly? Or is Applejack able to jump that distance? Also, if she did, does she know of energized flight? Think it would be a real surprise when she first sees her sister flying... Just a thought.
5768878 The gravity of Kin Kai's planet is not just strong, but has a massive radius sort of like our moon but stronger. Think of Applejack like the r=tides here on Earth and King Kai's planet like the moon. She has strong legs to jump high enough so that she could enter it's gravitational pulland just be pulled up/down there by the gravity. Lame excuse, I know, but it works for me haha
5768892 I can accept that, now, for the rest of my questions?
5768901 Well you would be right in saying Vegeta would not come back from the wish, and neither would Goku. However, the wish was not competed because of the seven-star ball exploding and Shenron dying. As for Applejack's status of revival; I can't spoil that ;)
5768912 Well, I was mostly considering the fact if they didn't change the wish once the dragon balls are restored. So, either they have to change the wish or hope that Applebloom didn't happen to be close enough to count the death of the bad guys to be in the vicinity of her.
5768928 The wish was worded that only the good natured souls who died in Apple Bloom's vicinity would be brought back, so none of the bad guys
5769256 Ah, that's good. Missed that.
Is it time for the Ultratronic Line Chamber?
Aah, Celestia... She just sits there... Reading letters while her entire nation turns into dust... *Shakes head* Some almighty alicorn you turn out to be.
5769898 Oh my god, I love your reactions XD
Aw shit son! Time to head to the Hyberbolic Time Chamber?! Only one way to find out!
I only know of Eis, Nuova and Omega Shenron. I have no idea who the other four are.
5768554 me reading your comment...
