Interlude: New Wishes
Following their return to their own world Twilight took the rest of the day off from what she normally did, because there was much to think about and much to do, especially with Goku taking Future Zeno to Zeno's palace, which was an event that had an interesting side effect on her, she actually grabbed some wine and a glass to pour it into.
"I didn't know you drank." Bulma commented, as this was the first time she had seen Twilight do anything that wasn't part of improving the world or doing everything in her power to prepare for whatever the future held in store for them, and it made her wonder if there was more to the powerful being than she first thought.
"I don't, it's just... with everything going on, and the stupidity I've seen, I need to relax a bit." Twilight replied, taking a few seconds to pour herself the first glass of white wine and sip from it, before leaning back in her seat as she stared up at the sky for a time, where she allowed herself to ignore everything that was going on right now.
Despite that fact she knew that Goku, Shin, and Whis returned from their trip in no time, as it was hard to miss their arrival since it became nosier after their return, where Beerus had to ask if everything went alright this time around, since there was no telling with the King of All, or Kings in this case. Goku, despite how Shin was feeling at the moment, claimed that his plan had worked like a charm, both versions of Zeno were pleased to have a friend, meaning Future Trunks' would be safe for the foreseeable future and they would be able to rebuild in peace. Of course he had to deal with the existence of his own foe, since Eventide was still alive, but that was his problem to deal with and Twilight wanted nothing to do with it, though it did leave a lingering thought in her mind as everyone else seemed to settle down as Bulma informed them that dinner would be ready in an hour and a half. The thought was about Eventide, about the wish part of her had made that allowed one Zamasu to take over her body and turn it into a tool of death, a tool of terror, and what needed to be done so she could prevent such a thing from happening in the future.
With that in mind Twilight downed the rest of her cup and got up, as there was someone she needed to talk to, before she got too busy, and found that Bulma was currently setting things up on the large balcony that overlooked this portion of her entire estate, even though it was the only balcony she had.
"I've got a question: do you have the Dragon Balls?" Twilight asked, because based on what she knew Bulma loved to head out and claim the seven spheres for whatever purpose she had in mind at the time, usually to undo the damage that might have been done to the Earth during a villain's attack, but lately it seemed like she was using them to prevent villains from gaining the advantage.
"The Dragon Balls? No, I don't have them... actually, I've been meaning to track them down, as it's been a year since the last time they were used." Bulma replied, where Twilight noticed what she had overlooked before this point, Bulma had used the various wishes she was able to make to reshape her body, making it more sexy looking and more like a goddess', similar to when she used a wish on Shenron to increase the size of Twilight's breasts, "Why do you ask?"
"I just realized that there's a few wishes that I need to make, before we face whatever the future has in store for us and the Earth itself." Twilight stated, which was the truth, she now knew what to do with her time before she returned to her work, and right now she needed the Dragon Balls to make sure part of what happened in Future Trunks' parallel world didn't happen in her world, "Do you might if I borrow the Dragon Radar?"
"May I join you?" a voice inquired, where they found Piccolo, of all people, standing nearby, meaning he must have heard Twilight's comment and something had come to mind that made him want to join her in her brief quest for the spheres, which was interesting since he didn't seem to care for wishes these days.
"Do whatever you want." Bulma said, to which she walked inside the building and headed for the room that she kept the radar in, where it took her no time at all to actually track down where she left the thing, since it was in a safe that only she knew the combination to, despite the fact that it was usually left on the table, a habit she needed to correct at some point in the future, "I expect it to be returned when your done with it."
"You don't have to worry about that, I'll be sure to bring it back." Twilight replied, where she waited for Bulma to pull it out of where it was hidden before taking it from the dragon Beastian, though while she knew that her powers would allow her to track them down easier, given her time abilities, sometimes she preferred to do things like this, causing her to activate it for a moment as it zeroed in on where the seven spheres were located, "Come along Piccolo, I wish to hear why you are interested in the Dragon Balls this time around."
Piccolo nodded as he followed her back outside and they took to the air without delay, where she locked onto the closest Dragon Ball and started to head for it, which gave Piccolo some time to tell her exactly why he happened to start his own search for the wish granting spheres. His reason, however, was even more interesting, as he knew there would come a day, either far in the future or too near for his liking, that she and her family would turn their focus to another portion of the universe and leave Earth to their own devices, and, knowing Goku and Vegeta, they would either follow for the sheer challenge Twilight offered or they would turn to Whis for training. With that in mind, and most of their defenders simply scattered to the winds, Piccolo understood that someone needed to be there to protect the world, which naturally might be Gohan or even Eschalot, given the young dragoness' power, but, in the off chance that everyone else was unavailable, he had an idea to fix that. He was going to ask Shenron to awaken his inner potential, just like what happened with Gohan all those years ago on Namek, so that way he could be ready for whatever the future held for them, especially after they had heard about what happened in Future Trunks' parallel world.
Twilight had to admit that it was an interesting wish, one that should be within Shenron's powers to grant since she was sure that Dende didn't have that power, and might not have it until he was far older than he currently was, before coming to the conclusion that she wouldn't stop him from making it. Her reasoning on the matter was due to the fact that she, like him, had no idea what the future held for them, especially after bringing Future Zeno to their world, so she knew that they needed to prepare as fast as they could, though that would come after everyone rested from their time in Future Trunks' parallel world. With two Zenos she was positive that it was only a matter of time until the present one made a mention of the tournament that Goku wanted to throw, in fact the only reason she thought such a thing might happen was due to the fact that one Zeno was friendly with the Saiyan and had asked him for a favor already. As such she knew that it was only a matter of time until he remembered what he told Goku, or someone reminded him of his interest in such a thing, and they would need to be ready for when that day came, so powering Piccolo up was in their best interests.
With that in mind she tracked down the first wish granting sphere, which had landed in the middle of a forest, in a fairly decent sized pond, though instead of heading inside it she used her magic to carefully move the water, without harming any of the fish inside it, before extracting the Seven Star Dragon Ball.
After that she and Piccolo spent their time moving all over the planet, tracking down the remaining Dragon Balls, where they found that the Four Star ended up on an island that was full of exotic animals that were endanger of being poached, which just so happened to be where 17 was working, and living at times. Despite not being able to actually feel his Ki with their abilities, since he, 18, and even 16 couldn't be detected by normal means, she knew that he and 16 were stronger than before, though the nature loving 16 was deeper in the forest, tending to any wounded animals. They were surprised to find the pair searching for one of the Dragon Balls, but allowed Twilight to take it without delay, because if word got out that it was there they would be suffering the existence of treasure hunters as well, so they were glad to see it go. Once it was in their possession Twilight studied the radar once more and set off without wasting time, tracking down where she thought the other spheres were located and plotting her course accordingly, where Piccolo did his best to follow since he knew she was faster than he was.
The One Star was located in a desert, oddly inside what appeared to be an abandoned pyramid that didn't have any traps to speak of, meaning it had been placed there for safe keeping, while the Two Star was in a mountain range, resting right in the middle of some rubble. She found that the Three and Five Stars had been gathered up by someone else after the last time Bulma made her wishes, by a group of thugs to be exact, but the moment the men spotted Twilight they gave up instantly, allowing her to turn them into the police, as they were planning on robbing a bank, as Piccolo claimed the orbs they had collected. The last one, the Six Star, ended up in what had to be the oddest location of them all, as it was the once flat area that Cell had built his arena in, which they had destroyed during his games, and it happened to be right in the center of the crater that had been left behind. With all seven wish granting orbs in their possession the pair paused as Twilight used her Instant Transmission to return them to Bulma's place, allowing them to see that only a few people were present, though she disappeared and quickly returned with Putine.
As Piccolo raised his eyebrow, however, Twilight ignored him as she turned her attention to the wish granting spheres and uttered the summon phrase that would allow them to summon Shenron, where the sky went dark as the long serpentine dragon emerged from the glowing orbs and glanced down at them without delay.
"I am the Eternal Dragon. State your wishes and I shall grant them." Shenron stated, though in that moment he quickly recognized who was in front of him, spotting Twilight, Bulma, and Piccolo without delay, where he knew that one of them was a common user of the Dragon Balls that summoned him into this world, "Oh? Hello Master Piccolo."
"Hey Shenron. Can you draw out my latent potential to the limit, like Guru, the previous Grand Elder, could?" Piccolo asked, something that surprised Bulma, and everyone else that was nearby since Future Trunks was hanging out with his past mother before returning to the future, though as the Eternal Dragon nodded Piccolo let out a sigh of relief, "Very well, make it so."
"As you wish, so it shall be." Shenron said, where his eyes glowed for a moment as Piccolo was surrounded by an area that looked like his latent potential was released in the manner he desired, even if he was stunned by how much power he had inside him, though once the deed was done the glows disappeared, "I threw in a little extra, just in case. Now, what might your second wish be?"
"It's from me, actually, and my first wish is to be completely immune to the various body changing methods that exist in the universe." Twilight stated, because Future Zamasu had wished to switch bodies with her and that was something she needed to correct without delay, to make sure such a thing never happened again, where Shenron enveloped her in light for a few seconds as she felt something change inside her.
In the next moment Twilight revealed why she had brought Putine with them, since she was originally Captain Ginyu and that meant she was after the body change ability she possessed, causing her subordinate to gulp as she performed the motions and command to use the power, only to be knocked to the ground by an invisible barrier.
"Good. Everything is in order. Now, for the last wish..." Twilight said, where she weaved her power into the area that she was in and formed a window into the future, namely Future Trunks' parallel world, something that surprised everyone as they wondered what she was doing, "I wish for those that have been slain since the arrival of 'Twilight Black' to be revived."
She was using Future Bulma's name for Eventide to make the wish, since it was what they called her before Twilight took a second to change it to a more reasonable name, and the window would actually allow the power of the wish to be sent to the future, where she smiled as Shenron did as she desired, much to the surprise of those in the parallel world, and once it was done the Eternal Dragon, and the Dragon Balls, vanished once more.
"Twilight... why?" Bulma asked, as she was expecting a number of other things from Twilight, possibly immortality after her fight with an immortal opponent since she would have studied the benefits of such a thing, not using a wish to bring back everything that Eventide had killed during her assault on the parallel world.
"Because there has been enough death lately." Twilight replied, though in that instant she was bombarded by someone she was trying to ignore, as Future Trunks thanked her repeatedly for this gift, to the point that she got what she had once deemed to be utterly impossible, he actually apologized for massively screwing up in the past, causing her to sigh as he departed to see if he could find the one person he wanted to see again.
Twilight turned her attention to everyone else as she focused on the meal that Bulma was preparing, though at the same time she found that Beerus, one of the few people not surprised by her immunity wish, wondered if they were ever going to learn about her past, thanks to the wish he made on Super Shenron. She, in turn, chuckled as she started to tap a few buttons, revealing a screen of her own creation that had a special disc inside it, one that she had transcribed her past into, in a hilarious form that would stun some of them when they realized what she had done. It reminded her of the package she had given to Korn the last time she had seen him and Liquiir, a surprise gift for another god who wanted to know of her past, and wondered what he would make of the discovery, something she would have to ask the next time he came to visit her. Fortunately she didn't have to wait very long for everyone else to show up for Bulma's dinner, though as Goku and the others started to collect their plates, none of which were loaded yet, Twilight turned the screen on and let the disc do it's thing as a tune started to play, one she was sure she heard at one point before coming to Universe 7, and had to chuckle as several people dropped their plates.
She knew that this afternoon was going to be an exciting one if this was how they reacted to the opener, especially since Vegeta's jaw had dropped the moment the event started, and it only made her interested in seeing how they reacted to the rest of what she wanted to show them as she wondered what might happen in the near future.

Well Now they know
. and I was right about the Drinking.
Great chapter
11613596
Damn! Find it weird when your prediction is right.
Then again, I don't blame a very smart individual like Twilight almost losing her mind with the utter ridiculous in the Twilight Black/Eventide, Goku Black, Zamasu arc.
Then, their is Darkstar's madness. And the bloody aftermath of those various Twilight's and their alternate worlds gone.
11613633
Indeed, she has just dealt with so much crazy, that Pinkie looks normal next to it, so a drink will probably sounds like heaven after that.
Orange Piccolo is coming early!
GOOD! One problem is solved.
At least Future Trunk's timeline is fully fixed. I guess saving the other Twilight's and their alternate worlds go to the Super Dragon Balls next time.
You have no idea that Twilight have already got her immortality a long time ago.
Agreed with Twilight's statement.
And Future Trunk's very long overdue apology finally comes out.
And here's comes the hilarious reaction of everybody seeing MLP ( Twilight's past. ).
Too bad Future Trunks left too early to see his reaction.
P.S. When was Twilight in the MLP Timeline before she was displaced to the DB Multiverse? Is it like after Season 7 and the MLP: Movie? Or is it after Season 3 but before Season 4?
Does the events of Equestria Girls spin-off be shown?
And then there's the specific reactions of everybody seeing Twilight's own friends, Spike, her parents, brother, sister-in-law, baby niece, Celestia/Luna. And the various MLP Villains that she faced, and reformed some of them like Discord, Sunset, Trixie, Starlight, Stygian, Tempest Shadow, etc.. ( That those "villains" wouldn't realistically last against DBZ/DB GT/DB Super Characters, and Present Twilight anyway. ).
Hopefully, Spike wouldn't be shown to be "mistreated" like in canon. Or that Canterlot Wedding "event". You know what I mean? Because a lot of fans do complain about that.
11613652 As memory serves every displaced for this series, the Demon War series, is from after Season 8, but before Season 9. With the time that Twilight has had to think about everything, she would most likely show Spike in a better light and not the 'mistreated' nature.
11613847
So, the Friendship School, and the Young Six is still a thing. And Cozy is still in prison. ( Despite being a foal and all. )
11613859 Actually, she was displaced as well... with Starlight and Sci Twi. All was revealed during their journey through the Jak and Daxter series.
11613866
Nearly forgot that this story is intertwined with other various stories in the "Demon War" series.
Speaking of, who are these "demons" ( The new main antagonists of this entire series. ) anyway?
They don't sound like the DB demons that we know of?
And even then, the likes of Twilight, her family, and the Z Fighters can quite easily annihilate these "demons".
And what about the others from their own stories? No offense, but do we still need their "aid", since we do have universal/multiversal busting powerhouses in the Dragon Ball series in here?
11613980 The Demon Empire, as in the one for this series, is one of my own creation, who invade planets, wipe out the defenders, and take over the world so they can corrupt it and the survivors into demons to further their agenda... it's best to think of them like WoW's Burning Legion, just without the annoying respawning ability.
As for 'do we need the others', well... let's just say that the upper echelon of the DE's forces, their King and those serving under him, are all on the planet buster level. I'm not joking, as some have powers and abilities that are on par with the Demon King's from the Seven Deadly Sins.
11614002
Well, they are small fly compared to Present Twilight, and everybody else in the Dragon Ball series storyline in here.
Although, the other displaced MLP characters from other franchises will have some way harder difficult time facing those demons without Twilight's help.
Can you remind me what were those other franchises that you are using again in your Demon War series?
I know that some of them is Spyro, Ratchet & Clank, Sly Cooper, Jax and Dexter, and maybe Dark Souls. Is the new God of War with Flurry Heart included? Am I missing something?
11614048 We had Spyro, Ratchet and Clank, Jak and Daxter, Dark Souls 3, a Skyrim story, World of Warcraft, Demon Slayer, Monster Hunter World, and yes, the new God of War story.
The Sly Cooper story with Fluttershy was just an idea... the other series were My Hero Academia with Celestia, Diablo 3 with Luna, One Piece with Sunset Shimmer, Naruto with Tempest, and Bloodborne with an undisclosed displaced.
11614071
So, a second Sly Cooper story isn't included? And I saw that Dark Alliance is included here too.
So, yeah. I can see why most of everybody/everypony in those franchises will have a hard ass time to deal with demons that have planet-busting powers from the elite and their king/leader.
Only with the likes of Twilight and everybody in the DB series, or even Flurry Heart, and Kratos from God of War can have a huge chance to kick the demon's asses.
Only concepts that might not be made, or potential future stories?
11614107 I knew I forgot something. Rain Shine's story was a recent addition to the Demon War series, so my personal notes failed to mention it in the list of stories.
Oh, they're all potential stories that I intend on making. Out of all of them the series' penultimate story, the Bloodborne one, will definitely be made, as once it's over we'll head into the last story of the Demon War series.
11614122
Cool.
One last thing, and it's personally about this story.
I remember from the very beginning that Beerus, Whis, and Chronica already know about Twilight. And Chronica was even tempted to be Twilight's own adopted mother at the time. While Beerus was almost supposed to be Twilight's adopted father.
( Ironically, a callback and reference to your previous Dragon Ball story with Rainbow Dash and Applejack where Beerus and Chronica are there adopted parents. )
BUT, that immediately got changed by Freiza and even Towa getting the jobs to be Twilight adopted "parents".
Now here comes the question;
IF Beerus, Whis, and even Chronica already know about Twilight's arrival since she got to Universe 7?
Then why is Beerus/Whis, Shin, and Chronica pretend that they didn't know her, and "act" like this is the first time they met Twilight from the later arcs!!??
Why didn't either of them mention that they already knew about Twilight in front of her, when she first got to universe 7?
And speaking about Chronica, why didn't she interfered from what happened to Namek. And wrongfully stop Twilight from that specific moment from the Android/Cell Saga!? Thus, Twilight has bad blood with Chronica already.
( And Chronica was "originally" supposed to be Twilight's adopted mother!? Even after what she did to poor Twilight by not doing anything on Namek, and is against her one time in the android/cell Saga!? )
Then there is Shin, and he didn't even say anything to Twilight when the Buu Saga came. And with his sheer incompetence, he is also got Twilight's ire too.
Only Beerus and Whis are in Twilight's "good side"? While Chronica and Shin are probably still in Twilight's bad side.
Did you somewhat forgot about what happened in the beginning, didn't mention this in the later chapters? And just pretend that Beerus/Whis, Shin, and Chronica didn't personally know her until the specific arcs later on?
11614158 You have to remember that none of them knew her. Yes, they knew about her, but that was the extent of their knowledge. Beerus likely only observed her for a week or two before getting bored and went back to his sleep, which meant Whis was stuck at his post, Shin went back to doing a very bad job at running their universe, and Chronoa was likely booted back to the Time Nest by Beerus... if any of them thought about knowing about her arrival in U7, they probably thought it best to wait until she was older to tell her.
Beerus and Chronoa were the original plan, back when Flurry and Chrysalis were Twilight's sisters... then I realized that it would just be a rehash of the Daughters of Destruction story, so I changed things up until we got what's been going on right now. Chronoa's remark was simply a callback of sorts to the other story.
11614230
Well, now is finally a good time to tell her by now.
Plus, did Chronoa apologize and make amends for what happened back in Namek, and that one moment in the android/cell in a older chapter?
Then there is Shin's bad relationship with Twilight.
11614249 As memory serves, Aeos had Chronoa apologize ages ago, otherwise Twilight was liable to kill Chronoa in her anger.
Shin, on the other hand... I don't think he apologized for anything, but Twilight's been forcing him to learn how to be a Kaioshin, so she likely put their problem as 'water under the bridge' and moved on.
11614255
Cool.
With all those questions out of the way. We will anticipate the reactions of everybody of Twilight's past life.
Wait... a 'hilarious form'? Is her transcribed past in the form of the Friendship is Magic cartoon?
11614896 Yes. She's from MLP FIM, remember? Cartoon ponies from a mostly peaceful world... someone's bound to find that hilarious.
11614927
I know that of course. It's just funny to think about, especially thinking back to how she said it'd be fun to mess with Vegeta's pride even more by showing him just what he's been losing to. I knew it was coming in some form, I just didn't expect that joke to go full meta by having the transcription of her past be the actual cartoon.
Holy shit
Twilight is bringing mlp to the universes. Brownies are born these days?
