Having heard him out Twilight releases an annoyed sigh, "While I hear some of your points Power Grab, I will not marry for the same reasons as the prior royal sisters," Twilight had calmly told Power Grab. "I do hope they're doing well though, even my friends, Starlight, and everypony else," Twilight then thought in her head. "But your majesty a pony such as yourself should have a husband to help ease your workload, and help with siring an Heir..." Power Grab had begun to say before Twilight spoke up and cut him off. "You may think that by Prin-, I mean, Celestia and Luna's retirement that they didn't warn me of ponies like you that will try and play me for a fool to take the throne of Equestira," Twilight then stood up off of her throne and began walking down the stairs, "But I will look for my own happiness whilst protecting Equestria," she continued to say as she walked towards Power Grab, "So I will leave this at a no," she says to Power Grabs face, "You are dismissed," Twilight then turns around and walks back to her throne. "But-" Power Grab goes to reach out his hand to grab Twilights but is stopped by the Royal Guard and forcefully removed. After sitting back down Twilight slumps in the throne and rubs her temples, "Is this what Princess Celestia and Princess Luna had to deal with everyday?" she mutters to herself. "Yes they did, but that is what I've been told by the one who held this position prior to me," A pony says walking up from the stairs to Twilight. "Secretary Grand? Is there anything else on my docket today?" Twilight asks as she slowly straightens up in the throne. "Yes, you have a meeting that is supposed to take place in the dining hall for the rest of the day," Secretary Responds calmly. Hey, Author you forgot to describe Twilight and Secretary! I was getting to that later...and you haven't shown up yet so shoo. "Well, a full day meeting, who is it with?" Twilight asks as she fixes her dress. "Those attending have wished to remain ammoniums, and I've had the Night Guard check, they are all good," Secretary responds calmly. "Please put it in my schedule to thank them for this," Twilight asks. "Already done," Secretary responds. "Sometimes I think you have Spike help you out with your training whenever he's here since he and Ember started dating," Twilight thinks aloud as she stands up and begins her walk to the dining hall with Secretary following beside her in a faster pace. "I do not deny the thought, you must not forget you have a meeting with Dragon Lord Ember and Dragon Land and Equestrian Ambassador Spike tomorrow," Secretary replies calmly. "Don't worry, I remembered," Twilight says calmly as she and her companion reach the doors to the dining hall, "Would you wish to join me Secretary?" Twilight asks her. "I will have to decline your majesty," She politely says with a bow and begins to walk off. Just as she left the guards open the doors to the dining hall as Twilight walks in whilst still watching Secretary walk down the hall, but as she enters she notices that it's dark inside as the guards quickly shut the doors to the dining hall. Not knowing what is going on Twilight goes to use her magic when the light suddenly turn on and she sees her friends Rainbow Dash, who while she may look older she seems to have matured a bit and has slowly risen the ranks of the WonderBolts to Captain after Spitfire retired last year, yet she still has a bit of a cocky attitude she still retains her lean, aerodynamic body. And to her surprise she had her little sister figure Scootaloo as she had grown into an adventurous young adult who continued to help other ponies find their Cutie Mark with her childhood friends. Applejack, with her muscular frame and her work clothes still on as she also looked to have matured a bit. And what surprised her was her sister Apple Bloom was with her as she herself had grown up into a fine young adult along with her friends and also had a muscular frame like her older sister, and like Scootaloo continued to help other ponies. Pinkie Pie seemed to have plumped up a bit but retained all of her excitable attitude Twilight remembered when she was living in Ponyville. She also had been working with Cheese Sandwich in his factory and with the Cakes still as both a baker and their personal babysitter. Rarity herself has seemed to mature into a true Canterlot beauty as she had managed to open up more shops across Equestria and a few into the other countries across the world. But thankfully she still retained her charm from her home in Ponyville. And as she had concluded with seeing Apple Bloom and Scootaloo she also saw Sweetie Bell who had grown up and could easily pass as a Canterlot modal but she had continued to help other ponies with her two friends. Fluttershy had really filled out to the point that when she would do some of Luna's job she would see the dreams of young men filled with Fluttershy in them, as she had continued her animal sanctuary which was thriving as she had continued her book clubs and other activities with her continuously growing animal friends. Next she saw her sister in law, brother, her mentor and her sister. Celestia had looked the same as she did when she retired but was wearing a bit of a loose dress that was actually a bit tight on her as she had also seen many a dreams of young men, older men, and a few women with Celestia in them as well but she looked like she didn't age at all. Luna also looked the same as her sister but having been trapped in the moon for a millennia she looked a bit younger, but not by much, as she was wearing a darker toned outfit that consisted of jeans, and a modest t-shirt that read, "Luna is best princess" across her bust as she smiled at her sister in a playful way. Cadence, Twilight's sister in law also looked like she hadn't aged at all as she wore her formal dress from the Crystal Empire that Twilight would normally see her in. Shining Armor had looked like he had grown, as she would describe, a dad body but other than that, looked to be a bit similar in the rest of his appearance from a few years ago. Flurry Heart her niece had grown into a very active, yet responsible young lady. She had read in letters and heard from her brother and Cadence that she was in a public school and had the top grades from her skill in studying, which both her sister in law and brother jokingly said she got it from her. She was dressed in her casual dress for this meeting which just added to her childhood cuteness. Seeing the people in front of her she was shocked as they all waited for Twilight to come back from her shock. "Wh-what are you all doing here?" Twilight asked excitedly as she looked at most of the people that mostly influenced her life. "Rarity I thought you had a fashion show today? Rainbow I thought you and the WonderBolts were preforming drills in the DragonLands with their aerial team? AppleJack I was told by your sister that you were working on the fields for Cider season coming up? Fluttershy I thought you told me you had your weekly tea party with Discord and your animals? Pinkie..." Twilight asks excitedly to her friends but as she asks Pinkie. "You thought I had to babysit the Cake twins whilst running the bakery?" Pinkie responds with her signature smile. "Yes," Twilight asks happily as she now asks, "Celestia, Luna I thought you said you were going to visit Prance today? And you three," Twilight then turns her excitement to her extended family, "I thought you said you had a diplomatic meeting with the Yaks?" Twilight asks as she continues to look around the room at some of the people closest to her. "That would be our doing Princess Twilight/Twilight," Twilight hears from behind her three different voices. As she turns around and looks at the three of them. One of them was Secretary, who looked to be in her mid 20's as she was still wearing her business suit with her raven mane in a ponytail and her near crimson eyes. One of the other ones was her recent Captain of the Guard, Drill Instructor who was in his early thirties yet hadn't had a compilate filed against him at all as he was wearing all his armor but his helmet which he was carrying at his side as he walked towards the group with his Auburn mane showing he had helmet mane, and his aquamarine eyes showing he was still in work mode. And the third was an old enemy turned friend, Discord who looked as mismatched as ever with his white hair, mismatched eyes, and mismatched clothing that Rarity still to this day hasn't had him change to something more normal. "We planned this behind your back because those of us here at the castle felt it would be best to let you relax after all you've done for the kingdom recently," Secretary calmly said with a smile on her face. "Yes, you always give time off to all the guards when they need it and help with training on the political and economic side," Drill adds. "But it seems like we're missing a few people doesn't it?" Discord adds with a chuckle. "Who else-" Twilight begins to ask but is cut off as the doors to the dining hall open once more and she sees Spike, Ember, and surprisingly Smolder walk in. "Sorry we're late, Smolder wanted to head to Doughnut Joe's place to try some of the doughnuts," Spike responds nervously as he had grown up quite a bit after moving to the DragonLands, as he has kept most of his features from when he was a baby dragon, to now looking like a strong adult. Whilst Ember had not changed too much besides growing a bit taller and filling out a bit. And Smolder had changed the most from a small dragoness to a strong young woman. But what surprised Twilight the most was that Ember and Smolder were holding onto one of Spikes arms tightly with him having a light blush. "I am so happy all of you are here, and Spike why is Smolder holding your arm like that? I thought Ember and you were together?" Twilight says happily but then asks Spike curiously. "Well...uh...you see-" Spike starts to nervously stammer but Ember speaks up by kissing his cheek and saying, "Myself, Spike, and Smolder have agreed to be part of a Horde, or in your terms, a Herd," Ember calmly says as she lets go of Spikes arm with a smile. Hearing this everyone looks at Spike in shock as Discord makes a pin appear and drops it in the room, the dropping of the pin is heard in the room. "SPIIIIIIIIIKE!" Twilight begins to yell but quickly calms down, "Okay, we can discuss that later Spike," Twilight says with a smile on her face and everyone but Ember, Smolder, and Discord shudder from her tone and the smile she's using. "Yes, Twilight," Spike calmly says as he takes a seat at the table along with the others as Discord floats above the table. "Now, I believe we must take our leave, enjoy yourself your highness," Both Secretary and Drill say with a bow and walk out of the room. One Hour Later After an hour of having fun and catching up with most of the people close to her, Twilight couldn't help but smile and laugh at all the stories being shared, and fun being had. But she knew this wouldn't last forever. "While I thank you all for coming, I have a feeling you all can't stay for the night can you?" Twilight asks everyone in the room resulting in a majority of "no's", shaking heads, and sad faces. "I see, well, hopefully we can-" Twilight says as she gets up from her chair, but can't move her legs. "What the!?" She yells in alarm as a black and red swirling vortex opens beneath them all and they all stand. The vortex slowly causing the chairs and table to sink into itself. "We need to get out of this!" Twilight yells as the doors to the dining hall burst open and a few guards come charging in. "Stop! We don't want anypony getting stuck in this like us, so stay back!" Twilight orders her guards. "No we came in because we heard you, but also, the statue of the three, it disappeared!" One of the guards say as Twilight and the others are in shock at this development. "I think we can fly out!" Rainbow Dash says as she begins flapping her wings to escape, but the vortex's hold on her feet is too much and she can't do much. "I got you all!" Discord responds by snapping his fingers. But nothing happens which shocks the Chaos God. "I knew I should've gotten that extended warranty," Discord says annoyedly as he then reaches out a hand to hold onto Fluttershy as he tries pulling her out. Sadly though his efforts are in vain as the vortex begins to swallow the rest of her friends one by one at a quickening pace. "Discord!" Twilight yells to him getting his attention, "Let go of Fluttershy, if this is a threat against Equestira we need someone in charge that I can trust, and I trust you Discord, so you need to let Fluttershy and us go, then find and rescue us like you did with Starlight," Twilight reasonably asks Discord. Hearing this Discord thinks about it for a moment and lets go just before his hand would be trapped. Seeing this Twilight smiles to Discord before she disappears into the vortex. And after she does, the vortex disappears as quickly as it came "Whoever they are, they better not hurt a single hair on dear Fluttershy's head," Discord angerly mutters to himself. End of Prologue > Prologue: A Villainous Wish is Made > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prologue: A Villainous Wish is Made “You’ve gotta be shitting me!” A young man yells as he flies through a barrage of green energy balls. “We told you we should wait for Sensei but no, you and most of the others wanted to…LOOK OUT!” A pink skinned female yells over a small communicator. Hearing this the man sees a ball of energy near his face and attempts to block it, but suddenly a looming figure appears in front of him and takes the explosive ball of energy, sending him flying into the young man. “Thanks Floke I owe you one!” The young man says thankfully to the figure. [This is Floke] “You can pay me back by letting Sensei know that myself AND Adora were against this Noboru!” Floke yells at Noboru as he swats away another energy blast. “Alright, alright, I’ll make sure to fill him in afterwards, but Akuju, you got a clear shot?” Noboru asks over the com. [This is Noboru] “Just a few more seconds, then get clear,” Akuju responds over the com with a calm yet focused tone. After that the being in front of them let’s out a loud roar as they see energy building up in its mouth. “Gigantic Roar Inbound! Zalania put a stop to it!” Floke yells over the coms. Just as the built up energy is about to be released a women appears from below the being with an upwards kick, closing its mouth as the built up energy explodes in its mouth sending Zalania and the being flying. However Zalania quickly recovers thanks to Adora catching her with her outstretched arms. [This is Adora] [This is Zalania] “Thanks, but who’s idea was it to enter this Time Rift that held BOTH FUCKING BROLY’S!?” Zalania yells over the coms in their ears. “It was yours, Noboru’s, and Akuju’s thinking that our Sensei would take us seriously remember,” Adora says with a calm fury in her tone. “Ready! Get clear everyone!” Akuju yells over the coms as they all scatter and Broly sees five Supernova’s heading his way as he attempts to let out another Gigantic Roar, he is hit with all five and they detonate on him. “Think that got him?” Adora calmly asks as the rest of the group gathers together. [This is Akuju] “Oh, it got him…but you don’t think we’d be left out of this fun?” A mysterious voice says from behind the group as they whip their heads around and see another man with someone who looks similar to Akuju. “Fuck,” the group says as they see the two hovering over them with dread in their voices. “Oh trust me, you’re all going to die,” The man says as he lifts on hand partially up and they see another Supernova heading towards them. They all brace for the attack, but it doesn’t come. When they look up they see a man with their back turned to them, their outfit is black with grey highlights and accents. As they all go to thank them they see a death glare looking at them over the man’s shoulder. “I told you, AND the Supreme Kai of Time has told you, you’re not ready for these missions yet!” The person in front of them calmly and sternly tells them as he turns his attention back to the two others. [Their Sensei] [The source of the Mysterious Voice] [The person with him] “Well, took you long enough to get here Cacto,” The man cockily says as he shows the group a small red crystal in his hand. “I should have known you were behind this Ifera!” Cacto yells back at Ifera as he vanished from sight for a split second, appearing right in front of Ifera and his ally and blasts him with a large blue beam of energy. Sending him miles away before stopping his attack. Ifera’s ally then attempts to use its tail to strike Cacto which he catches, and quickly throws him to the ground by its tail and blasting it once with an energy blast. “You five stay here and deal with Dakora , I’ll go and deal with Ifera!” Cacto yells to the group of five as he puts his left hand’s index and middle finger to his forehead, and vanishes. “Well, your Sensei is strong, but not strong enough to finish me like that,” Dakora calmly gets up and dusts themselves off, “but I think I’ll toy with you all for a bit, after all, you beat one Broly, and the other you had defeated by pitting them against each other,” they add calmly and cockily as they outstretch their arms and takes a Frieza pose. [This pose in case anyone is confused] “It’s five on one, we probably might…” Noboru begins to cockily say as Dakora fires a thin purple beam of energy which pierces Noboru’s shoulder causing him to scream in pain. “You were saying you pathetic Monkey?” Dakora says calmly yet cockily. “DAMN YOU!” Zalania yells as she dashed towards Dakora, pulling her left arm back for a strike as she approaches Dakora. “Do you think,” Dakora starts to say as they effortlessly catch Zalina’s punch and toss her behind him right into Akuju who had vanished and appeared behind him resulting in Zalania crashing into him, “You five would be enough to handle me? I can easily beat you without the help of the Demon Realm Crystals so you’ll all die by my hands!” Dakora mocks the group darkly as he swings his hand across in front of him as a think red beam follows his sweep and sweeps in front of him as the rest of the group dodges by taking a leap backwards. “This isn’t going to be easy,” Noboru says worriedly as he looks upon his group, and their foe. Having been sent flying Ifera finally regains some control of his flight and looks towards where he came from with rage. But just as he is about to begin his flight back, Cacto appears in front of him as Cacto lowers his hand from his forehead. “You used Instant Transmission didn’t you? Why? Didn’t want your students to see you get your ass kicked?” Ifera asks demeaningly and cockily. “No, because I know that this time rift is already unstable, so I don’t want to risk them getting caught in the collapse zone should that happen,” Cacto calmly responds whilst giving Ifera a look of calm fury. “Oh, so you don’t think…” Ifera begins to say before Cacto cuts him off with an energy blast aimed at his face, which Ifera deflects, “Hey you bastard what was…” Ifera yells at the interruption but Cacto speaks. “I know I can beat you, no matter how strong you get because I EARNED my strength, you’ve done nothing to earn yours and that’s why you’ll never defeat me in a fair battle,” Cacto calmly responds. “You…you…YOU FUCKING PATHETIC BASTARD !!!” Ifera yells loudly breaking the crystal in his hand as dark energy swirls around him before seeping into him as he raises both his arms into the air before bringing them down and transforming. His hair now stands up taller but his hair has changed colour, his hair, is Pink. “Rosè, you know that’s the form for Super Sayjin God Super Saiyan for those with corrupted hearts,” Cacto says calmly. “SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU FUCKING LOW LIFE SCUM!” Ifera yells once again as he rushes towards Cacto with an intent to lay into him and kill him. Cacto, seeing this manages to block Ifrea’s attack at the last moment before he manages to grab him by his outstretched arm and toss him to the ground, but this time Cacto outstretches his arms before bringing them together and firing a barrage of energy blasts at Ifera. “Stability in the rift is nearing critical levels, you need to stop the source of this AND them before I can pull everyone out!” A child like voice is heard over Cacto’s com. “Will it still be stable enough if I go to level 5 with my inhibitor?” Cacto asks into his com as Ifra produces a shockwave that dissipates the dust from where he lands and gathers up energy above his head and tosses a purple and black energy ball at Cacto. “If you do go there any higher levels of power WILL destabilize the rift,” The voice responds as the ball of energy is right in front of Cacto. “All I needed to know,” Cacto says calmly as he outstretches his hand towards the blast and is covered in a golden aura and he fires another energy blast, this time, the energy blast meets Ifera’s and causes both blasts to detonate. “KAKAROT!!!!!!!” A burly voice yells as Cacto turns around and is met with the Broly that the others thought were down. “Like him? We made sure both were here to try and kill you, but it seems myself and…” Ifera starts to cockily monologue as this Broly turns and fires multiple green energy blasts at him, hitting him due to him being caught off guard and crashing into the ground leaving a large crater. “KAKAROT!!!!!!!!!” Broly yells once again as his attention goes to Cacto as he charges up a large black ball of energy above his head. Broly then begins to rush towards Cacto but seeing this Cacto then throws the energy at Broly, but he manages to catch it in both hands as he slides against the ground as the blast pushes him back. “This is your end!” Cacto yells as he forces more of his own energy into the energy blast, causing it to detonate and vaporize Broly. After Broly is dealt with Cacto looks to the crater he saw Ifera cause and doesn’t see him. Cacto let’s out an annoyed huff and his golden aura stops and he returns to normal. “Time rift stability climbing, I’m good to pull you all out,” the voice calmly and happily says. “Pull us out, but you and my partner should know we need to talk with them,” Cacto responds in his com. But before he can get an answer he and his students are covered in a white glow and disappear. “You better be thankful I pulled you out when I did, or else you might’ve been,” Dakora angrily says as Ifera backhands him, causing him to be sent flying into the wall of their hide out. “You may think that was dumb, but I got these from that bastard,” Ifera calmly says as he reveals a small orange orb in his hand that has seven stars in it. “You mean!?” Dakora asks in shock and awe. “Yes, I have a plan that not even the Kai’s, that stupid bird, nor ANYONE can stop…not even the “great Omni King himself could stop this,” Ifera darkly says. “Well, let’s get to…” Dakora goes to get up but has an energy blast go off right next to his head. “We won’t use them all here, we’ll go somewhere where they won’t be able to stop us easily,” Ifera orders Dakora in a threatening tone. “Y-y-yes…sir,” Dakora responds in terror. In a vast wasteland, that looks like it used to have life Dakora and Ifera appear. “The Demon Realm, this place will do nicely,” Ifera says as he puts down the one orb, followed by the other 6 he managed to get from Cacto. “If I may ask, how did you get them from him, let alone know he had them?” Dakora asks Ifera. “To answer your second question, it’s the anniversary of the idiotic weaklings I killed so they “celebrate” and “morn” their deaths by using these to give them a feast and prizes for competitions, as for the first question…” Ifera calmly says as he finishes setting up the seven year orbs, “I managed to get through his personal storage thanks to the distraction from of the first Broly and my time using it to help find a way to get into his and steal it all,” He says darkly as he holds his hands out above the orbs. “Oh great Dragon I summon you forth, SHENRON!” Ifera yells as the orange balls glow and a great green dragon comes forth. “What is your wish?” Shenron asks. “I wish for another ally that will help destroy the Time Patrollers!” Ifera yells. “As you wish,” Shenron calmly says as a white light appears near the orbs and a woman falls forwards, unconscious. “What is your second wish?” Shenron asks. “I wish for you to summon forth villains from throughout time, space, and the multiverse that will help me achieve my goal without betrayal!” Ifera yells. “By doing this wish there must be balance, for me to grant this wish, a strength of good as equal to this villainy must be summoned as well,” Shenron warns Ifera. “I don’t give a fuck just summon them, and then I’ll hunt down this, “good” and kill it,” Ifera says cockily. “…As you wish,” Shenron says calmly as a time vortex opens above Dakora and a statue falls near him. “Farewell,” Shenron says as he vanished and the seven balls disappear. “Dakora, buy some time whilst I get these new allies, with one being a FUCKING STATUE YOU RIP OFF FUCKING DRAGON!!!” Ifera calmly says but yells at the end. “The petrification could only last until the “good” is brought to this world?” Dakora calmly guesses. Hearing this Ifera gets in Dakota’s face and tells him with fury, “If you’re wrong, you’re fucking dead,” Ifera tells him, “Now go deal with Cacto, he’s in the Demon Realm and I need you to stall,” Ifera says as he crushes a crystal and gives the energy from it to Dakora. > Chapter 1: Aftermath & Misunderstandings > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 1: Aftermath & Misunderstandings Time Nest “Did you really think you stood a chance, ALONE, against someone powered up by two demon crystals?” The Supreme Kai of Time asks Cacto as she applies bandages to him and uses some Capsules to heal the superficial wounds. “While I, ow, know that. We needed to, ow, get back the Dragon Balls, and if we, ow, didn’t they might’ve gotten stuck in the, ow, Demon Realm and became Shadow Dragons,” Cacto responds with winces as the bandages are applied. “I understand that, but we don’t fully understand what causes it, all we do know is the negative energy of the Dragon Balls cause this, so not even I know if by being in the Demon Realm, when the Dragon Balls are re-energized they might be Shadow Dragons,” The Supreme Kai of Time calmly responds as she steps back and sees Cacto properly covered with bandages. “And you better be thankful that one of your partners knows Energy Zone like you, because if it wasn’t for them, you might’ve needed more care after Dakora put a hole through your upper left shoulder,” she adds as she waves her finger at Cacto in annoyance. “Don’t be too hard on him, we didn’t know the situation, nor do we know why they needed the Dragon Balls,” a man calmly interjects as he enters the Time Nest. [The New Figure] “Cako, I thought you said you were…” Cacto begins to speak but is silenced by Cako’s glare. “I was getting supplies for the Festival,” Cako says calmly as he puts down over one thousand capsules onto the ground, “And this was all I could get since the Dragon Balls are inert,” he adds calmly as he hovers in the air sitting cross legged. “So limited food, and no real prize of a wish for the winner…what could possibly beat a wish from Shenron?” Cacto thinks aloud. “I think my cooking could…” the Supreme Kai of Time begins saying but Cako turns their head and glares at them. “What? I’ve gotten better,” she adds as all that does is make Cako raise their eyebrow. “Okay fine how about a seat in your class for a week Cacto?” she adds at the end. “Seems like a good idea…but that should be for the normal division and the junior division can still get a trophy for winning,” Cacto adds to her idea. “So we have our plan,” Cako says calmly putting all the capsules they brought into their storage. But as they do that both Cako and Cacto see the Supreme Kai of Time have a scared look on her face. “What’s wro…”Cacto begins to say as she runs out of the area where she keeps the Book of Beginning and End and begins looking around as Cako and Cacto quickly catch up. “Supreme Kai of Time what is wrong?” Cacto asks. But as soon as he finish’s speaking, a rift opens up over Tokitoki’s perch and drops several unknown people in front of the stand. However only one seems to have enough of their wits about them. “This is an unsanctioned teleportation, state your names and be ready to be detained!” the Supreme Kai of Time yells at them. “Unsanctioned? We were pulled here, wherever here is, by a red and black vortex,” One of them, presumably the leader says calmly as they slowly approach Cacto, Cako, and the Supreme Kai of Time. However, by doing that Cacto fires off an energy blast that wizzes by their head in an instant as he glares at the leader. “Take one more step and I won’t miss next time,” Cacto says in a threatening tone, clearly making her listen. “Again, we just want to know what happened, where we are, and what threat you might pose to Equestria?” The leader says calmly now standing still. Hearing the word, “Equestria” makes the Supreme Kai of Time think back to her studies from the prior holder of her title and how she had to memorize the Book of Beginning & End, and she has never heard of such a place called Equestria. “Sorry but there’s no such place as Equestria, so state your real purpose or I will have my allies engage,” The Supreme Kai of Time says sternly. “What do you mean, ‘No such place,’ it’s the capital of the Equis? How could…” She begins to say but gets cut off by Cacto dashing forwards and rearing his arm to strike once he’s closed the distance. Only to stop. Looking around the Supreme Kai of time also sees Cako with his arms back ready to fire a barrage of blasts but is also frozen. Looking to the leader she’s about to speak when a new voice comes from above them. (Sadly no picture because OC idea of my own.) “Chronoa. She, and her allies, mean you no harm,” the voice says as she, a beige fur, alicorn with a weird clock and hourglass for a cutie mark and an hourglass figure, descends between them. “They were dragged here, and I have stopped time to discuss with you…” She begins to say as Chronoa readies a few blasts of her own. “And I should trust you why?” Chronoa asks hostily until she sees Tokitoki fly up to her and surprisingly, nuzzle her. “Tokitoki and I are what you might call siblings…even though it’s a bit complicated to say the least,” she begins saying, “But I’ve failed to introduce myself, I am Aroa, my job is the same as yours where they are from,” Aroa says calmly. “So you watch over their past, present, and futures? Fixing any errors anyone might attempt to make to the timeline?” Chronoa asks as she dismisses her energy. “No, I keep the evils locked in the Void contained, for there are enemies in there that are worse than the ones that were summoned here, and I cannot stay for to much longer, I will have my own ally that I work with, like your ally named Trunks, assist you with them. I shall share with you all I do know about what is happening,” Aroa says calmly, gently tapping her horn to Chronoa’s forehead and sharing all the information. Only to vanish and time begin to slowly tick once more. “Cacto, pull back!” Chronoa yells at Cacto. Hearing this Cacto stops and backflips out of what he assumes is danger. “Cako, hold off, I know what’s going on,” Chronoa says calmly. “Wait? Why? How?” The leader asks as the rest of the people in the pile behind her finally get their bearings. “I think I can explain that,” A new voice comes from above as it descends and lands lightly on its feet. “Starlight!? I thought you…” Twilight begins to say but is cut off by Starlight. “I’m not your Starlight, in terms of making a comparison, I’m like their Trunks,” Starlight then looks at Chronoa, “I was quickly informed by Aroa of all I need to know, and if you have any questions, I can most likely answer them,” Starlight says to Chronoa. “Cacto, Cako no need to be alarmed, Aroa is the me of their dimension. In simple terms,” Chronoa says whilst paying attention to Starlight. “And I thank you for being calm about this…” Starlight begins to say as the pile of bodies behind her begin to wake up and Twilight cuts her off. “Calm!? I’d like some information please! First off, who is Aroa? What are they? Why haven’t I heard of them? And how can you be both my Starlight, and not mine?” Twilight asks a bit annoyed. “I think that would be best explained later Twilight, so for now, can we discuss about arrangements to work together?” Starlight informs Twilight but returns to speaking with Chronoa. “I will help as best I can due to Aroa and TokiToki’s connection. But I would like the names of all those now behind you as well as their possibility of being a threat,” Chronoa asks calmly. “The big white one is Celestia, the one next to her is her sister Luna, next to her is their niece Cadence, beside her is Cadence’s husband Shinging Armor, next is Flurry Heart, their daughter, then there’s Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, next is Spike, and beside him is Dragonlord Ember, and Smolder, and finally the one behind me and in front of the group is Twilight Sparkle, finally myself, I am Starlight Glimmer,” Starlight names off quickly to everyone in the area. “Knowing their names doesn’t make them less dangerous, and seeing three dragons, means this fight got a bit harder,” Cacto says as he returns to a readied battle stance. “Calm down, they’re allies for now,” Chronoa says calmly whilst keeping an eye on those behind Starlight. “Starlight, we aren’t just our names, we have titles that need to be adhered to if we end up needing to have peaceful negotiations like we need to now,” Twilight says nervously as Chronoa approaches Starlight. “If I may?” Chronoa asks Starlight who lowers her head to Chronoa’s height as she puts her hand on Starlights head and shares all that she’s willing to share before pulling her hand away. “As for the two behind me, Cacto is the third Time Patroller I employed whilst Cako is the second, the first is mostly because of what I showed you. “Understandable, and that is partially me of my universe, but slightly different,” Starlight says as she lights her horn and small bursts of energy hit each of the ponies and dragons on their foreheads and gives them the basic knowledge of the situation. “Hoooo dogi, that just makes mah head spin, and ah think this ere stuff I can’t really wrap mah head around,” Applejack says as she sits down on the grass. Rainbow nods in agreement with Applejacks statement and sits down as well. The other element users nod their head and also sit down. “So just to make sure I got this straight, our villains, were dragged through time and space to here, so by them being here, it strains the time space continuum to the point it could break, but with you being the one who deals with time anomalies you can make it harder for those to actually destroy us, and in doing so make it an issue of, stop them before they cause irreversible damage here?” Twilight asks. “Not exactly,” Chronoa says calmly as she walks towards the inert Dragon Balls and picks one up. “This is what we call a Dragon Ball, they are currently inert because they have the power to grant two wishes, but after using them, they go inert for a whole year. One set of enemies we fight used them to drag your enemies to them, and in doing so wouldn’t cause the errors like you suggested. Only needing to cause an equal and opposite reaction, which seems to be pulling you all here,” Chronoa says calmly as she puts the Dragon Ball down and returns to where she was standing. “If artifacts that powerful exist, then there must be a deterrent to make sure ponies of evil don’t use them?” Luna asks. “The only deterrent is that not many people know of them to the point they’re only spoken of as a myth, and they’re normally scattered throughout the world once they’ve been used, and them being inert for a year after using them is what keeps them as safe as they can be,” Chronoa says calmly. “So what your saying is that while yes, they sound like a myth, someponies seek out those myths, what then?” Twilight asks calmly. “Simple, they need to travel around the world to get them. That’s it…and know the phrase to awaken him,” Chronoa says calmly before glaring at them, “which I will not share,” she adds on at the end. “As much as this conversation is peaceful, all you’ve done so far Supreme Kai of Time is speak of our world, and they have yet to speak of theirs,” Cacto adds calmly. “Right, Aroa gave me all I needed to know,” Chronoa says forgetfully as she walks to Cacto and Cako before floating up to their foreheads and sharing what she knows. “…tch, I’ll head off then…my students need to know their punishment as well as me being the referee,” Cacto says sounding annoyed as he walks to the entrance, but a new person comes flying through. “Supreme Kai of Time! I came as soon as I…” the figure reports, but upon seeing Twilight and her friends he draws his sword from behind his back and begins to charge towards them. Only to be stopped by Cako stepping between them, catching him by his shoulder before putting his hand on his head for a few seconds. “…okay, so it looks like I over reacted partner,” He asks Cako. “Yes, yes you did Trunks,” Cako responds calmly. “It seems like I still have some learning to do," Trunks asks. "It seems we all do," Cako adds loud enough for all to hear, but before any of them can respond he adds, "But I'll be off to supervise the tournament," after adding that he walks through the teleporter and leaves the Time Nest. -End of Chapter 1-
