Equestria, Canterlot Castle, 7:00 AM
Princess Luna is recovering after bieng knocked out....
"Sister, Are you feeling well?" Princess Celestia puts her hoof on Luna's chest.
"Big Sister... He could be a big threat to us all... You should banish him." Princess Luna said in a slow voice.
"That is not necessary. He made a promise...", Celestia holds Luna's hoof, "Have Faith..."
Flash Sentry enters the Room. He bows to show respect.
"Twilight and her friends are fine, Princess Celestia." Flash Sentry bows as he removes his helmet.
"Thank Goodness..." Princess Celestia said.
"Flash Sentry, I want you to find Yusuke Godai and bring him here." Luna commanded.
"Sister... What are you saying?" Princess Celestia's eyes widened as she heard Luna's word.
"...I don't trust him..." Luna replied.
"He is the only one that can save us from the Gurongi! Have faith in him..." Princess Celestia said.
"Well, He lacks the Amadam. He is gonna destroy us all... Just let me talk to him atleast for a minute." Luna insisted.
"...Very Well... I am gonna have to watch out for both of you, Okay?" Princess Celestia insisted.
"I will bring him here at once." Flash Sentry said as he leaves.
Meanwhile in Ponyville...
I saw a very young Filly crying...
"Hey! What's wrong!" I said as I run towards her. The young Filly didn't answer. She kept sobbing.
"I know this is sudden...", I pet her mane, "I think a Filly who can smile through hard times is cool!"
The filly looks at me as I caught her attention.
"When I was just a kid... 8 years old... I was stranded in Nepal. I would have died there and I wanted to cry." I told the Filly a story.
"Nepal...? Where's that...?" The Filly asked.
"It's back on my home world... Anyway. There was a boy, despite his age, he said "it'll be okay" and smiled at me." I said as I put my hand onto of her head.
"and I kind of thought that was cool!" I said.
"..." The filly didn't say anything and just continued crying.
I looked around and saw a red stallion pony pulling a wagon loaded with apples.
"Hey, Can I borrow some Apples?" I asked as I approached the red stallion.
He suprised to see something he never saw before but he let me borrow some of his apples anyway. "Yup" He said.
I continued to deal with the crying Filly, trying my best to cheer her up. I started juggling with the Apples. I'm having Deja Vu. Eh, The juggling act didn't work this time.
"Oh! There you are!" Someo--- SomePONY said. The voice was familiar. I looked... And... The apples landed on the ground.
"I told you to wait for me!" The familiar looking Pony approached the Filly.
"Ch-Cheerilee!" The Filly ran and hugged Cheerilee.
I was starting to get nervous and sweat.
"A-A...A... Are you her M-Mother...?" I asked.
"You must be the new creature Princess Celestia talked about!" Cheerilee exclaimed.
"No, I'm not! I'm her Teacher. I teach at the Ponyville Schoolhouse." Cheerilee added.
"Uhhh..." I didn't have anything to say anymore. I decided to leave.
"You seem to like Fillies. Why don't you come over at the Schoolhouse? You can have a great time with them." Cheerilee asked.
I remember my time impressing little children with juggling back in my world.
I look back at Cheerilee with a smile.
"Hmmm? Do you agree?" She asked.
I pulled out a small card from my pocket and gave it to her.
"What's this?", She reads what is written on the card, "The man who chases Dreams, The man with 1999 abilities, Yusuke Godai?"
"That's me!" I said.
"Oh! That's excellent! I guess I'll be hiring you as a substitue teacher. I teach about Cutie Marks! Here, This is a map that should lead you to the Schoolhouse." Cheerilee gives me a small hand-written map on a piece of paper.
How do they even write when they don't have fingers? I know Unicorns use their horns but what about the ones that don't have horns?
"What about you?" I asked.
"I'll be taking a time out, Okay? You take care of them for awhile. Just tell them all you know about Cutie Marks and it should be fine... I'm giving you my trust for this time, Okay?" Cheerilee answered as she returns my card to me.
"What's a Cutie Mark?" I asked. She didn't answer because she already left anyway...
Okay... This should be easy right...? Well, Guess what... It isn't.
I arrive to the Schoolhouse an hour later... It looks somewhat cartoonish... Oh wait. I enter inside and since it was built for Ponies and not for Human Beings, I had to keep my head abit low to avoid hitting the ceiling. The classroom had a chalkboard that have writings that don't make any sense with a drawing that looks like Planet Jupiter or something, small stools with tables that have hearts carved on each sides, a Globe that somehow resembles MY Planet Earth, 8 windows, and Foals... adorable Foals.
"Hi!" I greeted the Fillies and Colts that were present in the class.
"IT'S A GIANT!" A Colt screamed and all of the Foals started panicking.
"Wa-Wait! No!" I tried calming everypony down. Think wasn't going well, Heheh.
"Take this!" A Filly threw a book right into my face.
"Ow!" I hold onto my nose. I attempted to head towards the door, but I tripped on my shoelaces causing me to fall onto the ground. The foals went silent for a moment before bursting into laughter.
I stood up and scratched my head as I laughed too.
"O-Okay... I-I'm not a Giant. If I was, I wouldn't fit in here!" I said.
The foals giggled.
"Excuse me, Mr. Giant..." One of the Fillies asked.
"Yusuke." I told the Filly...
"...Yusuke. Are you a Giant from outer space?" The Filly asked... Cute.
"No... I heard about Giants that came from Nebula M78 back in Japan though...They fight Giant monsters." I said.
I see a Pale, Grayish Olive Filly with red-ish mane and a pink ribbon... Writing with her mouth.
"How do you do that?" I asked.
"Do what?" The Filly had southern accent, just like Applejack.
"Hey! You're that person my sister talked about!" The Filly exclaimed. I quickly assumed it was Applejack.
"Applejack?" I asked.
"Yup! My name is Apple Bloom." She replied.
"She said ya have some kind of superpowers!", Apple Bloom quickly stood up, "Can you give me a Cutie Mark!?"
"...A What?" I don't even know what that is since Day 1.
Hearing what I said, Everypony gasped.
"He doesn't know what a Cutie Mark is!?" One of them shouted.
"Well... I-- HEY!!!" One of the Foals actually PULLED DOWN my pants!
"You're a Blank Flank!"
"No!" I quickly pulled up my pants. Good thing my underwear didn't fall off.
"So, aren't you gonna teach us something?" one of them said.
"Uhhh... I guess..." I tried erasing the writings on the board... For some reason, it won't disappear. "What."
Somepony knocks on the door. I opened the door. Behind the door was Flash Sentry
"Hey Ha--- Well this is convenient..." Flash Sentry said.
"You must be Flash Sentry. Twilight told me stuff about you..." I said.
"Princess Luna wants to talk to you, Please come with me." Flash said as he pulls me out of the Schoolhouse.
Canterlot Castle, 2:00 PM
I approached Celestia who is sitting on her Throne. Luna was there as well.
"We have much to discuss..." Princess Luna said.
"Listen, Sorry if I kicked you on the jaw, Okay? I didn't mean it." I quickly apologised.
"I am over that. I want to know if you can handle your Powers." She said strictly.
"I..." I had no choice but to deal with this. Luna slowly approached me.
"Are you ready?" She asked.
"I guess..." I said calmly.
"I have heard from Ponies that you have made alot of Fillies and Colts happy. Is that true?" She gives me a suspicious look.
"Yeah. I like everyon-- everypony to smile." I said.
"Well, What do you think will happen to them if they find out that you have an incredible power that you cannot even control?" She started bieng dark on me.
"I can control it... You don't need to worry." I replied as I turned my back on her.
"You are not going anywhere. My sister already trusts you because she had heard that you saved Fluttershy from a Spider Monster.", Luna glares at me, "I don't believe that..."
"..." I didn't have anything to say about that anyway.
"What if you completely lose control then? What if you destroyed Equestria? What if you made every creature on this Planet extinct?" Luna asked.
"I..." What if she is right? What if I can't control it forever.
"Do not judge him, Sister..." Celestia said.
"Do you not know what will happen to Equestria, Big sister!?" Luna yelled at her sister. I didn't listen but I can tell they start arguing.
I can feel something strange... I think I can feel whenever an enemy attacks... Something is slowly approaching the Schoolhouse... I sneaked away while they are arguing. They didn't notice me escape.
Princess Luna stomped her hoof onto the ground with rage.
"I WILL NOT ACCEPT HIM TO BE IN THIS WORLD, EVER!!!", Luna screamed in a loud voice which almost destroyed my eardrums even I'm already a distance away from them, "THE GURONGI ARE BACK AND THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT! IT'S THE END!"
Celestia was silent... Princess Luna then notices my absence...
"WHERE IS HE!?" Luna yelled.
I ran as fast as I could and board the train, hitting my head on the ceiling. It took me a few hours to get back to Ponyville but let's just say I'm lucky since I got there just in the nick of time.
Ponyville Schoolhouse, 3:30 PM
"Get away!" Cheerilee screamed as she tries protecting all of the Foals on her class. They were bieng attacked by Zu-Gumun-Ba. He survived the fatal fall back at Everfree Forest. This time, I'll just call him "Spider"
"Zu-Gumun-Ba!" I yelled as I jumped onto his back. He threw an elbow onto my stomach causing me to let go. I had no choice but to fight him again.
"Is that all you got, Kuuga?" Spider said.
"Kuuga?" Cheerilee wondered.
This is it... The moment of truth to actually save somepony without losing control the second time. I do the same hand movements to transform.
"Henshin!" I yelled.
My body started transforming into Kuuga's white form. I heard that it was called "Growing Form", Kuuga's weakest Form.
"Whoa!" The Foals cheered.
"Wh-What are you...?" Cheerilee asked with fear.
I attempted to punch Spider's chest. He was able to catch my fist. He then shot a string of web from his mouth onto my neck and started strangling me. I struggle to break free.
"Everypony! RUN!" I yelled at them.
Cheerilee nodded and escorted her students out of the Schoolhouse.
I pulled myself towards Spider using his string of web. I then kicked his hip, and then punching him on the chest.
"Rrrrghhh..." Spider started growling.
I grabbed a chair and smashed it onto his head causing his web to get cut off, freeing me. I quickly remove the web from my neck.
The claws on Spider's forearms then extends. He attempted to slash my throat but I was able to dodge.
I continued moving backwards as I dodge, hitting my back onto the wall. Spider attempted to stab impale my head but I was able to catch his claw.
I struggled as hard as I could.
"You're going to be killed, Kuuga." Spider said as he forces his claw towards my face with all of his might.
I was slowly losing strength. My hands are starting to slip from the claws. If I let go then I'll end up having a hole on my face.
I grabbed onto a pencil which is on the table right next to me. I was able stab Spider with the pencil on the eye causing him to let go of me, thanks to my enhanced strength.
Spider flailed backwards as he attempts to remove the pencil that was shoved deep into his eye socket. I see this as the chance to finish him off.
"Chou-Henshin!" I yelled. Multiple dark yellow-ish lightning shoots towards me from the sky, destroying the ceiling of the Schoolhouse. Dark smoke-like aura starts to violently erupt from my body as nearby Chairs and other objects start to levitate up from the massive energy.
"Wh-What are you!?" Spider yelled in fear.
I slowly change from Growing Form to Ultimate Form since this is the only way to kill him. The objects fall down to the ground as the transformation is completed. My eyes were red, meaning, I'm still in control.
"Curse you..." Spider whispered as he attempts to escape. I quickly grabbed him and threw him out of the window. He ended up on the playground which is just outside.
He attempted to shoot another string of web at me, this time it wrapped around my torso. The grip was tight but I was able to escape easily.
Spider charges towards me in frustration. I clenched my hand into a fist as it is coated in very hot flames. I threw a powerful fiery punch onto his chest which caused him to fly back a couple of distance and then hitting the swings, destroying it completely.
A bright glowing symbol appears on the spot where I punched him. He struggles to get up.
"Y-You'll die..." Spider took his last breath as he fell onto the ground and explode. Cheerilee and her students quickly ran towards the scene. All of them are scared and confused. I looked back at them.
They moved backwards slightly while shaking nervously.
I was about to say something but something interrupted me.
"Stop right there!" Luna yelled as she appears along with Princess Celestia and some Royal Guards.
"That Form... Guards, Restrain him!" Luna commanded her Royal Guards. They nodded as they approached me.
"Wait! Stop!" Cheerilee yelled.
Princess Luna look back at her.
"He isn't evil! He saved us!" Cheerilee said as her students started cheering.
I hear words from her students.
"Yeah! He saved us!"
"He was awesome! I saw it all!"
"He tried bieng our Teacher and he was funny!"
"He is a Blank Flank!"
"He is nice!" and plenty other nice words.
I guess they like me, despite what I am... I started to walk away.
"..." Luna was silent for a moment.
"Have Faith, Sister..." Celestia whispered to Luna.
"Very Well. Guards, Halt.", Luna approaches me, "Is that true? You saved this children from danger?"
I stopped walking. I looked back at her.
"Well?" Luna asked.
I smiled, I then gave her a thumbs up
