~Chapter 2 of Raze's Journey~

At the Castle of the Royal Pony Sisters, a whirring could be heard as a blue telephone box appeared out of nowhere in particular. It had the words “POLICE BOX” with “PUBLIC CALL” in the middle of the first words.

As the whirring died down, the doors opened and smoke poured out as two silhouettes emerged from the well lighted doorway.

The first one stepped out of the light; he was a brown stallion with a brown mane and tail with an hourglass for a cutie mark. Then the second one stepped out and it was a mare with a gray coat and yellow mane and tail with seven bubbles for a cutie mark.

They began to walk away from the machine, and while walking the brown one broke the silence, “We had almost vanquished him and he got away...”

The gray mare looked down at the ground with a saddened expression, “I just don't know what went wrong.” she sighed with little earnest thinking: it was obviously all her fault in the first place.

“Now, Derpy, this is in no way your fault. I should have been watching out for you. The Master is a dangerous foe and is not to be taken lightly. He'll use any means to defeat me, and I should have been there to protect you when you needed me most! For that, I'm sorry...” he finished in a rather quick way, knowing that Derpy shouldn't blame herself.

“Oh, Doctor, you always know just what to say to make me feel better!” she said happily as she kissed him on the cheek, catching The Doctor off guard and making him blush.

The Doctor touched his cheek with his hoof and smiled, 'I'm a pretty lucky Time Lord!' he thought to himself as Derpy smiled at him.

The moment didn't last very long as Derpy and the Doctor heard a crashing sound coming from the area ahead of them, away from the ancient castle. The Doctor looked in the direction of the crash, "What was that?!" he yelled.

Derpy turned towards the direction of the heard crash, "Doctor, it came from the direction we were walking towards!" she then turned towards the Doctor.

The Doctor turned to Derpy “We need to go check out the area where whatever it was crashed!” he said while Derpy followed close behind him.

~Crash Site~

The Doctor and Derpy had finally made it to the crash site after an awkward run. They looked down into the crater and saw a ship that appeared to be on its side.

“Is that a spaceship, Doctor?” Derpy asked him as he rummaged through some saddlebags of his.

“It looks like it, but I want to be sure. Aha! There it is!” The Doctor said triumphantly as he got his head out of his saddle bag.

The Doctor pulled out his Sonic Screwdriver and began to scan the ship. He then used the tractor beam on his Sonic Screwdriver and turned the ship to a standing position.

He then used the screwdriver to hack the system, and the landing gear finally came out in the form of robotic legs. The Doctor then let the Tractor Beam go and the ship landed itself.

A voice sounded from the craft, “Landing complete! You may now exit the craft.” The main hatch opened and extended towards the ground. Nothing but silence was heard throughout the area.

“That's strange, nothing is coming out...” The Doctor said to himself as he put away the Sonic Screwdriver.

“Then let's go in!” said Derpy as The Doctor stopped her from going up first.

“I'm the Time Lord here! I'll be the one to explore first!” The Doctor said as he looked upon the ship.

Hesitantly, The Doctor approached the craft. He looked up at it and saw the words “CAPSULE CORP.” written in huge letters, 'Never heard of that company...' The Doctor thought to himself as he continued onward.

Derpy followed the Doctor as they went inside the ship. She saw the orange-red tiles covering the floor and the white tiles covering the walls. She looked towards the middle of the room and saw a white and silver center coming from the top of the ceiling to the floor “Wow, this place is pretty! Why doesn't the TARDIS look this pretty?” she asked the Doctor.

“You don't like how awesome my baby looks? I'm starting to think that you don't know design quite like she does!” The Doctor said to Derpy as she puffed out her cheeks.

“I know Rarity would think this place looks better than the TARDIS! I mean you're all about the dark and silver stuff! Why not the bright white and silver stuff?! It's so spacey!” she said in awe of the ship around her.

The Doctor mock scowled, “I think it's just fine!” he huffed, making his way to the center console of the ship.

“This does look like it's based off my TARDIS though... I wonder what it does...” he began to mess with buttons as Derpy found her way to another part of the ship.

Derpy looked over at a new area and found a ladder, 'This must lead somewhere!' Derpy thought to herself as she spread her wings and flapped them as she navigated the passage way.

She found herself inside what looked to be a kitchen. She started looking around and found the fridge, 'I'm gonna raid it!' With a big ole smirk, Derpy opened it.

She looked inside and immediately, her attention was caught. More specifically, a certain button that must never be mentioned to her.

Derpy's eyes dilated and you'd wonder how she wasn't blinded by the light coming from the button labeled. “The Muffin Button”. 'This fridge was made for me!' Her mind and body was beckoned by the glorious red button.

She pressed her hoof into it and sure enough, in a few seconds, no less. She heard a loud sound as the oven opened up with a tray of muffins sticking out. Derpy shut the fridge door and trotted over to the muffins with an increasing interest 'These don't look like any muffins I've ever seen before... I wonder what flavor they are.' she thought to herself as she got some oven mitts and put them on her hooves.

'These mitts have and extra side to them that just flaps around... I wonder why?' Derpy asked herself as she got the pan out of the oven and set it down on the table located not too far away from her.

Derpy looked at the muffins inside the pan as she grabbed one, 'This is going to be so good!' when suddenly, The Doctor appeared inside the room, or at least Derpy thought he had randomly appeared. He had just climbed down the ladder leading to the kitchen.

“Hey Derpy! Whatcha gahhh!” The Doctor was as Derpy threw the muffin in surprise.

Derpy saw as the muffin hit the floor, “MUFFIN, NO!” Derpy yelled as she spread her wings and flew towards the area where the muffin was. The Doctor yelled again as he was dragged by Derpy and they both ended up careening towards the opposite wall. They hit the wall with a loud smack.

Derpy and The Doctor lay there dazed for a few moments. Derpy smiled victoriously as she held up the muffin “I saved the muffin! Isn't that great Doctor?!” she asked him.

“Just cheery... Are you going to eat it now so we can get back to what we were supposed to be doing?” The Doctor said to Derpy.

“Of course!” And with that Derpy shoved it into her mouth and began to eat it. The flavor hit her so fast that a sound could be heard over all others as her wings shot up.

*pomf*

The Doctor picked himself up and looked over at Derpy to see the almighty wing-boner of the century as her wings stood proudly above her back. “This is one of the greatest muffins I have ever had in the history of my life!” she exclaimed to the Doctor.

The Doctor's eyes followed her as she zoomed back to the pan. “You know what Derpy? I think you need to stay away from muff-” Derpy stuffed a piece of a muffin into his mouth, having achieved light speed apprently.

Derpy smiled at him as he began to chew. “What do you think?!”

The Doctor swallowed the piece of muffin and looked at Derpy with a serious face, “It wasn't bad at all... What could be in it? I've never had such a muffin before....” The Doctor began to ponder how it was made while Derpy left towards the ladder.

Derpy flew up the ladder and landed in the main control room. She began to look for anything else as she finally took notice of a strange looking creature laying near a seat.

She began to get closer to the creature ever steadily, 'I wonder what this thing is? It has to be the owner of this ship...' she heard the clopping of hooves as the Doctor had finally decided to join her and also saw the creature on the floor.

“A human?! In this universe?! Incredible! But get back Derpy! I'll take it from here! He could be dangerous...” The Doctor trailed off as he outstretched his foreleg in front of Derpy.

The Doctor approached the unconscious individual lying next to the seat and looked down at him in deep thought, 'A human? For the first time, I don't feel so alone... But I'm not sure of his personality! A being from my universe can still be as dangerous as the next! I'll keep a close eye on this one...' The Doctor thought to himself as Derpy had went past him without the Doctor noticing.

Derpy looked at the unconscious body and began to mess around. She poked him on his head, on his shoulders, and then shook him a bit, “It's time to wake up, Mr. Sleepyhead!” she said with a wide smile.

Raze began to groan and his eyes opened slowly as he adjusted to the light of the ship. He brought his hands to his eyes and rubbed them, trying to clear the sleep from his eyes, 'W- What's going... on?' he questioned himself as he rolled over onto his stomach.

Derpy flew back in surprise at the sudden movement of the creature as the Doctor stepped up beside her. He regarded the human with caution, picking his first greeting carefully, “Alright, I'm not sure what you are, so we'll start with your name. What is your name?”

Raze picked himself up off the floor and turned to the direction he heard the voice come from “My name's Ra...” he stopped when he only saw two horses staring at him, he then looked around trying to find out where the voice came from 'Those voices had to come from somewhere... But there are only two horses in here! Someone must be hiding around here....' Raze looked around and saw nothing and then looked on the other side of his captain's chair.

'There's nobody here... The voices couldn't come from horses, could they?' he questioned himself as a second realization hit him.

'It must be Discord! He could surely be here! If he can invade dreams, then it has to be possible!' Raze smiled and said, “Alright, Discord! Come on out! No need to hide! I already know you!” Raze finished as nothing happened.

'Nope, nothing...' Raze's thoughts started to turn the gears in his brain while the two “Horses” watched the disturbed human.

'Come to think of it, his voice sounded wildly different from the one I heard.' Pondering on this, Raze considered his options.

The Doctor and Derpy stared at each other, then to the confused human and then back at each other. They watched as he continued to search around the ship, apparently in deep thought. Then they watched as he stopped searching and finally gave up his fruitless quest.

Raze looked at the two horses again and said aloud while scratching his chin. He forgot to keep his thoughts to himself. “If Discord isn't here and there are only two horses on my ship, then that mea-” he was interrupted by Derpy.

“We prefer the term ponies, Mr. Spikey!” she said with gusto before turning in the air and hitting him with her tail. Raze wasn't hurt by the tail slap, but he was for once in his life, completely awestruck.

The Doctor noticed his look. “Have you never met another species before? With a ship like this, I would expect that you have.” The Doctor finished as he based the idea on his own experiences. If you have a ship that's advanced enough for travel on a grand scale, then you've definitely met another species before.

Raze was still confused by the situation, but he still continued despite that. “Well, of course I've met another alien species, but never have I met a species of hor- I mean ponies that could talk because I've been to other planets where horses and ponies are rode around and used for farm work. They never did talk...” Raze finished as he scratched his chin.

The Doctor shrugged, “I understand your confusion about the situation. I had the same issue when I found out about ponies that were sapient beings! I thought of myself being so lucky to be the first Time Lord to find such a place!” he finished rather satisfied with himself.

Raze, who had listened to the little speech, nodded, “Well, we started off on the wrong foot. My name's Raze!” he then held out his hand and looked at the Doctor who shook his head.

“Clench your hand into a fist.” The Doctor told Raze whom complied, then the Doctor hit his fist with his own hoof, “This is the greeting here! Hoof bump is what all the ponies say! Isn't it just hilarious? Also, my name is the Doctor!” The Doctor finished telling Raze whom retracted his fist.

Derpy trotted over and held out her hoof “And my name is Ditzy Doo! Ponies that are my close friends call me Derpy! I know this is the beginning of a wonderful friendship, so you can call me Derpy!” Raze bumped his fist against her hoof and smiled at her. Derpy smiled back with vigor.

“It's nice to meet you both, if a little confusing at first...” Raze said as he got up.

“It's nice to meet you too!” Doctor and Derpy said to Raze whom had started walking to his center console.

“What are you doing, Raze?” The Doctor asked him as Raze tapped some buttons on the keyboard. Suddenly a screen appeared and showed nothing on it.

Raze looked at it in confusion, “That's strange...” he typed a bit more and found the screen saying “Location Unknown”. Raze looked at the screen for a few more seconds before turning back to the Doctor and Derpy, “I don't have a map for this place.... That means that I must be lost..... Or away from any signal for my ship to lock on to...” Raze quickly turned off the map screen and found himself walking back towards the wall he had hit his head on.

Raze then put his back against the wall and slid down the side of it. He hit the bottom and sat there for a while before saying, “Wow, this is quite an issue.....”

The Doctor walked over to him “I know what the issue is! I come from a different universe completely! You must have hit something that allowed you to come here!” The Doctor said to Raze, who then looked at him in confusion.

“You mean, like a portal between dimensions, or something like that, right?” Raze asked The Doctor, who smiled and nodded.

“Yes! You wouldn't believe how many times I've crossed dimensions while traveling through time. It's an interesting thing once you get into it!” The Doctor said Raze raised an eyebrow.

“What was that?” Raze asked him as he dug into his ears with a finger.

“Exactly what you heard.” The Doctor said to the confused Raze.

“Well, that's something... A time traveler... Hmmm... Let's not get into that can of worms. I need to figure out one of my newest problems.” Raze said aloud.

“And what problem would that happen to be?” The Doctor asked him.

“Where I'm going to live at... Do you two happen to know of any places nearby?” Raze asked them.

Derpy smiled and answered Raze “You could live in Ponyville with us! I have quite a bit of room at my house!” Derpy exclaimed in earnest.

“I'm not sure if that would be right....” he finished by crossing his arms.

“Why?” Derpy asked him with a tilt of her head.

“Well, I would be stared at by a whole bunch of ponies as if I was a wild animal, that's one thing, so I gotta figure out a different place...” Raze said as he began to pace around the inside of the ship.

Derpy smiled once again, “I know a different place where you wouldn't have to deal with other ponies! It's perfect for seclusion!” she said as Raze turned toward her again forgetting to continue his pacing.

“Really? Where would that be?!” Raze asked with vigor.

“There's a cave on a huge mountain! It's just outside Ponyville! There is one problem, though...” Derpy trailed off with a slight frown.

“How could there be a problem with that? It sounds nice and quiet to me! Probably a great view also! Are you going to tell me what that problem is?” he asked Derpy.

“Well, okay! A dragon lives on the mountain. But I'm sure he would listen to a voice of reason if you asked to stay really nice-” Derpy was interrupted abruptly.

The Doctor shoved had shoved a hoof in her mouth “No! How can you suggest that?! He's a human and that means it's far to dangerous.” The Doctor finished with urgency.

Raze then smiled and said “I agree with you, Derpy! A dragon would be a cool thing to be around, but I would have to show it some supremacy, so I'm going to go there ASAP and show this dragon a thing or two!” he began to walk towards the door of the ship, but was stopped by The Doctor.

“Are you even thinking about this?! You're throwing your own life away, stop and think befo-” The Doctor was interrupted by Raze.

“I'm not a human!” Raze said as the Doctor gave him a surprised stare.

“Not human? Then what are you supposed to be?” The Time Lord asked in extreme curiosity.

“I'm a saiyan!” Raze said with a proud smile.

The Doctor's curiosity began to grow further “What in the world is a Saiyan? I've never heard of that species...” The Doctor trailed off as Raze smiled.

“I'll tell you right now!” Raze said to them both.

Raze told them about the Saiyan race and what they were capable of doing. The Doctor and Derpy listened in as he told them of the intricacies of the Saiyan populace and needless to say, The Doctor was astounded, and Derpy just seemed to absorb the information. Raze couldn't tell what was her mind.

The Doctor started to smile “OH! You are something brilliant! I can't wait to see what you're truly capable of doing! Seems like you'll be able to defend yourself easily, but I'm still sure that you would be happier in Ponyville!” The Doctor said.

“There may be a time when I'll check out the place, but I wouldn't get too hopeful of it happening anytime soon. I guess that I can go and find the place on my own. It's been nice meeting you both and I wish you a nice day!” Raze then walked towards the door of the ship.

He opened it and then went outside. He began to make his way towards the forest when he started realizing something 'I don't know where I'm going and it's really foggy for some reason...' Indeed the fog had set in all around the sky and Raze having no idea where to go, decided that he should head back to the ship. So he did.

“I can't believe that I've met a new alien species today! Simply brilliant! I'll have to add what I know to the TARDIS in case we find anymore!” The Doctor said as they stood on the walkway leading into the ship.

“I found the best muffins ever! We also have a new friend if he stays... Do you think he'll find the mountain without a guide?” Derpy asked the Doctor whom smiled.

“Maybe we won't have to wonder about that for long! He's already back!” The Doctor said as an embarrassed Raze walked towards them.

“You wouldn't happen to know your way to that Cave, would you?” Raze smiled awkwardly in slight shame as he didn't have a clue himself.

The Doctor and Derpy looked at each other and smiled, then turned to Raze “We can help you get to the cave, but we should wait for the fog to clear.” The Doctor stated to Raze.

Raze then smiled himself. “Alright, I guess I'll get a few more of those muffins before w-” Raze was interrupted by Derpy when she tackled him.

“YES! More of those amazing muffins!” she exclaimed as she shot back into the ship.

The Doctor smiled and then turned to Raze, “I think that you should be a little more careful around her, Raze. She's quite a handful!” he said while helping Raze up.

“Tell me about it...” Raze trailed off as they both followed her inside to eat more of those incredible muffins.

Season 1 Dragon's Cave (Redone Chapter)

~Chapter 3 of Raze's Journey~

Raze thought that the weather had been far too foggy for anyone to travel and so he made the decision that everyone should stay on his ship until the morning arrived. The Doctor and Derpy both agreed to this while thinking the exact same thing.

The night went by quietly and then the morning sun rose to greet the alien ship and it's passengers. Raze woke up on the right side of the bed and decided to go and check up on his guests rather than eat as he thought it was the right thing to do.

Raze climbed up the ladder and found himself in the main room where temporary beds were made for the two ponies, however they weren't there at all.

'Where in the world are they?' Raze thought to himself as he searched the rest of the ship for any traces of where they may be.

His search turned up nothing of value, 'I don't think that those ponies would just leave without showing me the way to the dragon, would they?'

He had only just met them the day before and had no reason to trust them, but he still had the feeling that they truly were trustworthy, 'I gotta work out what I'm thinking, I'm not even sure whether I should be right, or not...' His thought trailed off as he looked at the middle console in his ship.

'I should probably check what time it is, then I can go and search for them.' Raze thought as he walked to the console.

He pressed a button on it and the computer turned on, “11:36 A.M.” It said as Raze finally felt his stomach rumble.

'Well, would you look at that? I've already skipped breakfast and it's nearly lunch...' Raze thought as he pat his stomach.

'I should go make something real quick!' Raze thought as he began to walk towards the ladder that would descend into the kitchen area.

Before he could make it there, the ships door opened and an electronic voice popped up, “Enter.” It said as two figures walked in.

The first one was the Doctor, “We've brought some apples here!”

The second one turned out to be Derpy, “Even thought they're not as good as muffins, we thought that you'd get tired of that and then we figured you'd like to try some apples from Sweet Apple Acres!”

“Apples from Sweet Apple Acres? I'm not sure what to say, but I'll give them a shot...” Raze trailed off as Derpy flew over to him while holding one.

“Good answer! Now try it!” Derpy finished with a smile.

Raze looked at the apple and then back at Derpy, 'Hmm... They did come back... So I guess that I can trust them after all...' his thoughts trailed off as he looked at the apple.

It looked bright red and perfect for consumption, 'It looks real good... Well, here goes nothing.' He put the apple close to his mouth and chewed into it it.

He then munched on the piece until it was crushed well enough. He swallowed it and then saw that the Doctor and Derpy were waiting for a reaction.

“This is really good!” Raze exclaimed as he began to rapidly eat the apple.

The Doctor and Derpy watched as he ate the core of the apple and then look at the bushel with hungry eyes.

The Doctor smiled, “There's plenty to go around! I'll just pass you another!” He looked down at the bushel and noticed that it was gone.

'Where did they go?!' The Doctor looked up and saw Derpy giving Raze the whole Bushel.

“We already ate on the way here, so these are for you!” Derpy said as Raze took hold of the bushel.

“Really?! Thanks!” Raze took out three and began to eat them really fast.

The Doctor sighed, 'He's a voracious eater...'

Raze finished the apples and looked at Derpy with a huge smile, “Remember when I said these were good?! Well, I was wrong! They're amazing!”

Raze took a few more out and finished them rapidly. He then prepared to take even more until a hoof slapped his hand. Raze looked up to see Derpy looking at him with somewhat annoyed expression.

Raze sweat dropped, “What?”

“You're eating a little too much, you should wait a while before eating more. After all, we have a Dragon to show you!” Derpy said with a smile.

Raze looked at the bag of apples and then back at Derpy, “You're right, I'll save the rest for later.” Raze swung the pack over his back and then looked at them with a grin.

“I'll have to go and shrink the ship so that we can get moving.” Raze finished as he began to walk toward the door.

Derpy and the Doctor followed him outside and watched as he began to move around the outside of his ship. They both watched as Raze looked for something.

'It's around here somewhere...' Raze thought as he moved around the ship.

Derpy looked confused, “What are you doing, Raze?”

Raze heard her, “There's a button on the outside of the ship that will make it shrink into a capsule, then I can store it in my carrying case.”

The Doctor was the confused one now, “What's a capsule, Raze?”

Raze looked and smiled when he finally found what he was looking for, “Here's the button!” Raze pressed it and then an explosion happened. Smoke covered the area where the had been and then clear away almost instantly leaving nothing but a small capsule sitting on the ground.

Raze walked over and picked it up. He then went back to the Doctor and showed him, “This is a capsule, these were made on planet Earth in our universe and soon became a universal good. The entire galaxy where I'm from uses these for almost everything! They also have packs that carry them, like this!”

Raze pulled out his carrying case that had a multitude of other little capsules that were all labeled with certain numbers and letters.

The Doctor looked at the case with wide eyes, “That's really brilliant! I don't think that I've ever seen anything like this! I'll have to look at them later, if you'll allow it?” he finished as Raze smiled and nodded.

“Sure, just don't break them.” Raze said as he put up the capsules for now.

The Doctor nodded, “Well, thanks for the explanation even though you're not sure about the mechanics of it, it's still an amazing idea. Now we should probably get going if we're going to make it by the end of the afternoon.”

Raze agreed, “Yeah, let's go!”

Raze began to walk forward, but then he heard something moving in the bushes near them. He turned in their direction and saw nothing.

'That's weird... I could have sworn that something was there... I'll keep my guard up!' He decided as he heard a call coming from where Derpy and the Doctor had just been walking.

“Are you coming, or not?!” Asked a voice that Raze recognized as the Doctor.

“Yeah! Wait up!” Raze ran to catch up with them.

As Raze walked along the path with the Doctor and Derpy, he noticed how the path was widening a bit. Minutes passed and the path continued to grow until they reached a clearing.

'We must have been walking for at least ten minutes, It wasn't nearly as far as I thought it would be... I wonder what this dragon is going to be like! It's going to be awesome for sure!' His thoughts of an epic beast of large proportions and threatening sharp teeth staring down at him was more than enough to pump him up for the journey to the top of the mountain.

Then Raze noticed the mountain itself, 'Woah! It's huge! I doubt that any of these ponies have ever climbed this thing!'

“Do you think that you two would make the climb?” Raze asked the ponies that sat beside him also admiring the view.

Derpy giggled, “What about flying? You said that you could fly, so why not?” Derpy finished with a flutter of her wings.

“Well, I'm not going to fly because I could think of it as being extracurricular training! Besides, The Doctor can't fly, so it'd be better for everyone involved if we just walked. Don't you think so, Derpy?” Raze asked as Derpy nodded.

“You're right, I'm sorry, Doctor.” Derpy said with an apologetic look upon her face.

“It's alright, Derpy and it's a great idea to get some exercise! Me and Derpy are always running from something.” The Doctor finished with a small smile.

“Oh, Doctor!” Derpy jumped onto him and hugged him.

Raze watched until it started to become a bit much for even him, 'Going to turn around now!' Raze turned away from the two lovebirds as he looked into the sky.

He noticed that there wasn't many clouds in the sky that day. But he did see a minimum of two. Out of one of them, he saw something hanging down and it appeared to be made of rainbow colors.

'What in the world is that?' He tried to get a closer look, but then it was gone all of a sudden.

'That's kinda weird...' He thought about flying up and taking a look, but then he remembered why he was here in the first place.

“Hey! Doctor? Derpy....” Raze had turned back around to find them making out.

“Uhhhh... Are you both almost finished?” Raze asked as the Doctor let her go and Derpy fell down.

“Yes! Yes, we were finished! Right, Derpy?” The Doctor asked Derpy.

Derpy sighed dreamily and it seemed like her wings were stuck out, “Yyyyyyyeeeaaahhhh....” she trailed off with her eyes derped from the feelings traveling through her body at the moment.

“Derpy, we're about to go! Come on, I'll help you.” The Doctor said as he helped her up.

Derpy sighed as her fantasies disappeared from her mind and the light of day returned to her eyes, “Are we going now? And are we going to finish what you started later?” She whispered the last part into his ear in her best seductive voice.

“We'll do anything you want later.” The Doctor said as Derpy's wings refused to to retract.

“I'll hold you to that.” Derpy said as she began to walk up the hill with the Doctor close behind.

A few minutes passed and Derpy's wings had manage to stay out the whole time while they were walking. Raze had noticed and was curious about it.

Raze couldn't help it, he had to ask, “Why are your wings sticking up like that, Derpy?”

Derpy blushed and turned to him, “It's just something that we pegasi do, it's natural!” she then began to speed up as she tried to avoid the conversation.

Raze decided not to press her for anymore information.

The group hiked up the mountain farther and farther. Raze looked over the side and saw the entire forest stretching out ward from the base, 'What a great view...' he trailed off as he saw Derpy and the Doctor had went ahead of him.

Raze walked a little faster in order to keep up with their pace. They traveled up the mountain a bit farther and found that a giant boulder blocked their way.

Derpy walked up to it, “Wow, that's a pretty huge boulder.” she stated as she tried to find a way around it, but it blocked the entire path before them.

Derpy looked at it in confusion, “Someone or something had to have put it here, but who?”

The Doctor inspected the rock and noticed deep grooves on the sides, 'I only know of a few creatures that can put claw marks like that in to rock, but the closest one is the dragon...'

The Doctor turned to Derpy and Raze, “The dragon on top of this mountain had to have put it here, it's the only solution that would make sense considering the size of the rock. We should tread with caution once we make it past this obstacle.”

Raze nodded in understanding, “Alright! I have a quick solution to the boulder here.”

Raze walked up to the boulder and put his hands around the bottom of it. Once Raze had a good enough grip he lifted it up. Soon enough, the boulder was above his head.

The Doctor and Derpy were both shocked as he threw it into the air. Raze then pointed his hand at the flying boulder.

An energy beam shot out of Raze's hand and the boulder exploded into a million piece. Smoke spread from where the boulder once was in the sky and small bits of it fell from the air.

“See? Easy enough.” Raze said as he brushed his hands off each other.

“Ready to go?” Raze asked the two.

“Bu- b- but, The boulder?! How did you do that?” The Doctor stuttered as he tried to grasp what he had just seen.

'I've seen plenty of aliens before, but this species is capable of producing energy like that? And it seems to be completely normal for him! I'll have to do a study on him, maybe Twilight will help me on that if I ask...' The Doctor thought to himself.

The Doctor made the mental note and then smiled, “Well, we should get going! The top of the mountain won't get any closer if we stand here.” Derpy and Raze nodded in agreement.

“Yeah, let's get going!” Raze said as they started to climb up the mountain once more.

The group reached the top after thirty more minutes of climbing. The Doctor and Derpy were a bit winded, but still kept up with Raze who hadn't broken much of a sweat.

“Wow, look at that view!” Raze said as he stared at the clouds just below their level.

“You're right, Raze! It's amazing!” Derpy said as she looked over the expanse of clouds.

The Doctor nodded in agreement, “Yes, it is amazing, but we're here for something else entirely. Raze, are you ready for the dragon?”

Raze turned to him and nodded, “Yeah! If we make it clear that we're not here to threaten it or anything, then we should be just fine.”

The Doctor shook his head, “This dragon is known to hoard treasure out of greed which makes him bigger and stronger than dragons who have no treasure. You should be careful when meeting this beast.”

“I'll be just fine, I'm sure that he'll be reasonable, right? I mean, you're both ponies and you can talk, so other animals can talk too, right?” Raze asked the Doctor.

The Doctor smiled at that, “Well, technically other animals can talk, but some can't. It's all a matter of which species learned to read and develop their minds.”

Derpy jumped into the conversation, “Equestria has borders that everypony knows by now, The Dragon Kingdom, Gryphon Empire, and the Saddle Arabians. Those are only three, but there are a lot of other settlements outside the reach of those places.” Derpy finished with a smile.

The Doctor nodded, “Basically, what she said.”

Raze nodded as well, “Wow, so it can talk?”

“Yes, it can talk.” Derpy said as Raze looked to where the cave was.

Raze clenched and unclenched his fists, “Well, I guess that's good enough for me! Wish me luck!”

“We wish you the very best of luck!” Derpy said as Raze turned and smiled at them before looking back towards the cave.

He began his slow walk towards the entrance.

Raze looked around the area as he got closer to the cave. He noticed that clouds seemed to stay around the top of the mountain and went out from it like a carpet on the sky.

Raze also noticed something small and colorful sticking up from one of the clouds, “That's strange, didn't I see that earlier?”

Raze closed his eyes and then opened them to see that it was gone, 'What is up with my head?'

Finding no answer to the problem at hand, Raze continued on his course.

He walked inside the place the cavernous area, “Hey, Dragon! Come on out!” he yelled into the cave.

His voice bounced off every side of the walls and a deep rumbling could be heard a little further inside the place. Then a loud snort could be heard as the sound of large body parts began to move.

Raze's eyes had finally adjusted to the lack of light inside the cave and he now saw the beginning of a foot in front of his line of vision. He looked up and followed the leg to reveal the dragon he had been looking for the whole time.

The dragon's scales were a brilliant red with a softer brown under belly and black claws. It's eyes were golden and seemed to stare at him with little interest and a touch of anger at being awoken.

Raze smiled, “Hey there, Mr. Dragon! I was wondering if you would be willing to share your land here with me.”

Silence followed after Raze's blunt question. The Dragon seemed impassive to the situation as he slowly began to turn and Raze assumed that meant yes.

He turned to walk out to tell the good news to the ponies he had left outside and that's when he felt the air hit his body.

Raze turned and was smacked full on by a large tail. Having being caught off guard by the sudden attack. He flew out of the cave like a rag doll.

~Outside the Cave with the Time Duo a few seconds before Raze was hit~

The Doctor looked tapped his front hoof on the ground impatiently, “It's a little too quiet around here... Wonder what's taking so long...” he trailed off as Derpy looked at the entrance of the cave with curiosity in her eyes.

“Maybe Raze and the Dragon are getting to know each other!” Derpy said with an innocent smile.

The Doctor shook his head, “I don't think they've had the time to get to know each other that well, I'm willing to bet that something is going wrong inside.”

Derpy looked confused, “Raze doesn't seem like the type of Saiyan who would cause any trouble with a big hulking dragon.”

The Doctor frowned, “We don't really know him that well, we've only offered our assistance to help him find a home of some sort. To be honest, we probably should have asked him a bit more about himself. I'm not even sure that we can completely trust him.”

Derpy frowned, “Well, you've never questioned yourself before about other ponies and creatures being trusted before. In fact, when you got here, you had to trust me without ever having met me either. I remember when you acted so weird in everything you did, but I still followed you around and helped you out.”

The Doctor smiled, “Yes, you did actually help me out a lot. Tha-”

A loud smashing sound was heard as the two ponies turned quickly enough to see Raze fly out of the cave and off the side of the mountain.

The Doctor's mouth was slightly ajar as he collected himself quickly, “This isn't good!”

~Present Times Scenario, Dragon Attack!~

As Raze's body flew out of sight, the dragon made it's appearance outside the cave. It's muscles rippled with strength as it stretched them out. It flexed the wings upon it's back and then it began look around for any sign of the intruder.

As the dragon moved it caught sight of the Doctor and Derpy. The dragon moved toward them slowly and then stopped in front of them both.

Derpy hid behind the Doctor while he just smiled up at the hulking dragon before them, “Well, this is very inconvenient... Oh! Let's start with introductions!”

The dragon looked at them with slight irritation as the Doctor continued, “I'm the Doctor! The pony currently hiding behind me is my assistant, Derpy! And you are?”

The dragon snorted, “I am Pyrus and you have all interrupted my sleep. Now that your pathetic attempts at distracting me from attacking are done, I can clear you all out just like I did to your friend a few seconds ago.”

Pyrus sucked in air and then spewed fire out of his maw at the ponies below him. The Doctor knocked Derpy away quickly and sprinted to get out of the flaming breath himself.

The Doctor rolled when he hit the ground as the flames charred the rock where they had both been previously, 'He's going after us and I've got to make a plan!'

Pyrus wasted no time as he picked up a rock and threw it at them both. The Doctor thought fast and pulled out the Sonic Screwdriver. He activated the tractor beam and caught the rock.

Pyrus was surprised when the rock stayed in the air, 'What? Why isn't it falling?'

Then the rock seemed to wind back and flew back in Pyrus's direction. Pyrus breathed fire as the rock soared at him and melted it within a matter of seconds.

The Doctor galloped toward the imposing creature with another few rocks held in his tractor beam. He sent the rocks flying at Pyrus who shielded himself with his large wings.

Pyrus opened his wings sending a large wave of air all around him outward with large roar of anger. He turned toward the Doctor and began to move toward him.

The Doctor was running out of land as he tried to run along the edge of the mountaintop, 'I have to distract him from Derpy so she can get away!'

Pyrus was gaining on the pony as he saw the end of the edge coming closer, “You can run, but you can't escape me!”

Pyrus raised his neck into the air and breathed in fast. He came down with a large blast of fire that rolled out of his throat in long waves.

The Doctor jumped to the left to avoid the hot flames as they went past him and melted part of the rock on the side of the mountain now blocking his way.

The Doctor watched as Pyrus blocked any escape route that could have been used by himself, 'At least Derpy got away...'

Pyrus smiled showing two rows of sharp blindingly white teeth. He quickly breath in and fired a golden red wreath of flames upon the pony.

The Doctor shut his eyes and prepared for the worst.

“Leave him alone!” Another voice shouted as Pyrus looked up.

'Who would dare?!' He thought as several rocks smashed him in the head.

A few pebbles landed in his eyes and he roared in pain. Pyrus put his hands to his eyes trying to brush out the offending material within them.

The Doctor had moved out of the flames direction a few moments ago and looked at Derpy as she landed next to him, “Why didn't you leave?!”

Derpy frowned, “I wasn't going to leave you here at all! After all, I love you...” she trailed off with a small smile.

The Doctor found himself unable to resist her smile and his own facial features lifted to finally show his own smile, “Thanks for being there for me, Love.” They both heard several stomping noises that interrupted their moment.

Pyrus had finally wiped out the specks in his eyes and saw his prey ripe for the taking, “You've angered me for the last time! I'll be done with you now!”

He spewed fire upon them that covered the area. When the fire cleared up, he no longer saw their bodies, 'Oh well, Back to sleep, I suppose...' His thoughts ended as he went back toward his cave only to hear small wings flapping in the distance.

He turned to see both ponies in the air, the pegasus was struggling to hold up the other pony she was carrying.

“Nice reaction time, Derpy!” The Doctor said to her.

Derpy smiled, “Thanks! But we've got another problem, Doctor!”

“And what's that?” The Doctor asked in confusion.

“He can see us!” Derpy said as she saw Pyrus stalking towards them.

Well, that can be good! Can you put me down, Derpy?” The Doctor asked as Derpy nodded.

When both of their four hooves touched down, they realized that they were in the same situation as before. Pyrus looked a little bit more angry than he had been before.

The Doctor pulled out his Sonic Screwdriver and activated tractor beam to pick up several melting rocks. He then threw them at Pyrus who knocked them away with a swat of his large arm.

“Well, that plan got no where...” The Doctor trailed off as Derpy grabbed him by his shoulders.

“What do we do?!” She asked in a panicky voice.

“We should run, like right now!” Derpy nodded at the Doctor.

Then they were off for all of five seconds until a huge blast of flames blocked their way back to the mountain path. The Doctor and Derpy turned back to the dragon that had been escaping from previously.

Derpy turned to the Doctor once again, “Any other ideas?”

The Doctor looked between Pyrus and the flames behind themselves, “I'm out of ideas at this point, I wish we had just went and got the TARDIS when we had the chance...” The Doctor trailed off as Pyrus grinned in victory.

Pyrus began to breath in and began to stoke fires deep in his stomach. Derpy and the Doctor felt their times were up. The Doctor looked at Derpy and put a hoof on her shoulder.

“We've had a good run, stopping the terrors of the universe, but we may have just hit the end of our adventure...” The Doctor trailed off as Derpy actually felt tears begin to well up at the bottom of her eyes.

“Derpy, if this is the end, then I'm glad to have faced it with you rather than alone. I'll always love you...” The Doctor trailed off again as Derpy finally let the tears travel down her face,

She put her hooves around the Doctor and they hugged as the flames washed over them both. The end of their lives faced by scorching flames...

~Below the Mountaintop A Few Minutes Before This~

Raze got up and scratched the back of his head, 'Owww... I wasn't prepared for that one...' His thought trailed off as he looked around.

He saw pieces of melted rock all around the area, 'He must be doing a lot of damage up there.'

As if to answer the statement, more chunks of rocks fell from the sky. Dust billowed out from where the landed as they created small craters in the earth around Raze.

'I should probably get back up there.' Raze began to focus his ki.

“Kaioken Times 5!” He blasted upward at a high rate of speed toward his new found friends and an angry dragon.

~Back to the Present~

Derpy and the Doctor hadn't felt the flames hit them at all and we're surprised to feel the air moving around themselves at the same time.

Derpy opened her eyes and looked down to see the ground far below herself. She then looked down at herself and found that an arm was holding on to her.

The Doctor found himself in the same exact situation and then they both looked up to see Raze smiling at them.

“Hey there! Did I miss anything?” Raze asked them both.

They landed a few feet away from Pyrus and Raze set them down.

Derpy looked up at Raze with a smile, “Thanks for saving us, Raze!”

The Doctor nodded, “That was too close for comfort...” He trailed off as Pyrus caught sight of them all.

Pyrus was surprised, 'I didn't see them move! I thought the other one was dead!'

Raze looked down at them with a serious face, “Alright, I'm going to take care of this! So you two should just hide in that cave until the fights over.”

They both nodded and began to make their way for the cave. Derpy stopped for a second and turned back to Raze, “Be careful!” She yelled as she turned and continued toward the cave.

Raze nodded and then turned himself to the dragon. He made slow methodical steps toward the dragon and then stopped in front of the large beast.

He looked up at the dragon, “Wanna try the first meeting again? I did forget to tell you my name after all and I forgot to ask yours. I'm Raze and I'd like to ask you for permission to use this place as a home. I won't take any of your treasure, I just need a good isolated place. What do you say?”

“Well, no is the answer and my name is Pyrus. I own this land and my treasure sits inside the cave. With that said, what give you the right to even ask such a question of me?” Pyrus asked Raze.

“I'm not denying that this place is yours, but I need somewhere that I can train and not have to deal with such things as what kind of creature I am, or some thing like that. Besides, you attacked my friends and I don't appreciate that very much, you still have a chance to walk away from that, but you don't seem to be remorseful at all.” Raze finished as Pyrus roared in laughter.

“I still plan to kill you and your friends then and you won't be able to do much about that now will you?” Pyrus said as he began to charge up his fire breath.

“Then I will fight you.” Raze said as he was engulfed in the flames of Pyrus.

The heat seemed to be pushed back by another force as it slowly died and was embraced by glowing energy. The flames were then blasted into the sky creating a massive fiery explosion.

Raze stood underneath where the flames were supposed to have touched down, a barrier of energy covered his body.

Raze let the barrier down and smiled at Pyrus. Pyrus scowled and lurched forward to attack Raze directly. He smashed his fist down at Raze who then caught the attack with one hand.

Raze looked up, “Kaioken Times 3!” His body glowed red as he sped around the side of the dragon who turned to see him appear in the air. He used his left to try and knock Raze out of the air only for Raze to disappear in a flash of red light.

Raze took his left hand and turned it into a fist. He then planted that fist in the stomach of Pyrus. Pyrus coughed up blood as the air around them moved at the power of the attack.

Pyrus moved back away from Raze as he tried to catch his lost breath. Raze stood up from his previous position and then charged the dragon.

Pyrus whipped his tail out and caught Raze on his side with it which knocked him off balance, Pyrus then tried to smash Raze with his right arm as Raze caught the ground with his hand. Raze did several back flips to the other side of the dragon while avoiding the hit altogether.

Raze smiled, “I guess you still have some surprises after all!”

Pyrus charged Raze with reckless abandon and blasted Raze with fire again. Raze moved out of the way quickly and threw a ki blast at the dragon which caught him in medium sized explosion.

Raze then charged Pyrus and hit him with multiple blows to the stomach, 'Time to finish this!'

He then followed up his punch combination with an uppercut to the jaw of the beast which sent Pyrus flying into the air. Raze charged upward and grabbed Pyrus's tail.

Raze began to spin the dragon at a high rate of speed at a vertical incline. Raze then let go and sent the dragon flying into the woods below.

Pyrus tried to make his wings move and stop his descent, but the way he was positioned stopped his wings from moving at all and with a sickening crunch he hit the ground.

A large dust cloud burst into the air when he had hit the ground and now it spread outward among the forest.

Raze looked upon the damage that he had caused and then flew down to the mountaintop. When he touched down, he was immediately joined by the Doctor and Derpy.

The Doctor was the first to speak, “That was incredible! You beat the dragon without trying at all! There must be something interesting about your body or something that gives you that amazing power! I'll have to scan you sometime.”

“Thanks, Razey!” Derpy said as she flew up and hugged him.

Raze didn't like the sound of that name, 'Razey? That sounds so cheesy...'

Derpy let go of him after a few more seconds and touched back down on the ground. She then looked over to where Pyrus had been through out of sight.

“Do you think he's going to come back?” She asked Raze.

“Probably not if I don't do anything...” Raze trailed off as he reached into his armor.

Raze pulled out the box containing capsules and then opened it. He found the one he was looking for and clicked the button and threw it to the ground. A loud booming sound could be heard as a mini fridge appeared from the explosion.

Raze opened it and looked through to find a bag inside it, “This will help him out.” He opened the bag and took out a small green bean.

He put back the bag and went through the steps of putting up the mini fridge. Then he with the bean in hand, Raze was ready to fly to the bottom of the mountain.

Raze smiled to the Doctor and Derpy, “I'm not going to let him die when all I need is a place to stay, so I'll be back in a minute. See ya!”

Raze floated into the air and then picked up speed toward the edge of the mountain. He then dipped out of sight as he flew through the clouds to finally make it through and see the forest below.

He saw the body of Pyrus laying in a huge crater and he made for the area. His speed increased as he flew towards the open maw of the creature.

Raze opened up Pyrus's mouth and crushed up the sensu bean in his left hand. He dropped the powder into the open maw and then moved back quickly as Pyrus opened his eyes.

The dragon practically leaped to his feet and roared in triumph as his wings snapped back in place. His body seemed to puff out and exude power far beyond any other dragon alive as this dragon felt he had the whole of Equestria under his claws.

Then he remembered that he had been defeated by the creature called Raze, 'Oh... Right...' His thoughts trailed off as he noticed the very same being was floating in front of him, but just out of reach.

“So, you're healed now. Would you be willing to share your land?” Raze asked as he floated around nonchalantly.

'This insolent monkey still asks me to share my land?! I'll crush.. him...' His thoughts turned to the parts of the fight where he had been effortlessly thrown about like the weakest of dragons and then he snorted loudly.

'I don't have a chance against him... I must submit... This is the worst day of my long life!' Pyrus thought as he reluctantly turned to the creature before him.

“Yes, you may stay outside of the cave, but nowhere closer.” Pyrus nearly mumbled as Raze nodded in understanding.

“Awesome! Thanks for allowing me to stay there!” Raze said as Pyrus opened his wings.

“Yeah... Sure...” Pyrus flapped his wings and flew off to the top of the mountain as he prepared to nap once again.

Derpy saw Pyrus fly above them and she almost began to panic, but then Pyrus ignored them and went towards his cave where he touched down and disappeared inside.

A few seconds later and Raze appeared as well. He touched down and smirked, “He's agreed to let me stay here!”

The Doctor arched his left eye, “Are you sure that you can sleep safely here? I know you wanted the peace and quiet, but maybe you could just use the Everfree Forest?”

Raze shook his head, “No, I've went through enough trouble just to get this place, I definitely want to keep it! Besides, the view is amazing!”

“Razey is right! It does look beautiful up here!” Derpy said as The Doctor nodded in agreement.

“Yes, it looks brilliant.” The three of them stood and watched the sky together for a little while until a small noise of hoofs clacking on the rock turned all of their attention to the path they used to get there.

Raze saw an orange pony with bright green eyes and freckles all over her muzzle with a hat over her blonde mane, “Who's that?”

Derpy recognized the pony immediately, “Hey, Applejack!”

“That must be why ya'll took more of mah apples then usual.” She finished while pointing her hoof at Raze

Derpy was confused, “Did you follow us all the way here?”

“Yeah, we did.” Applejack said as a loud groan was heard from the clouds that covered the sky.

Another pony shot up from said clouds with an annoyed expression on her face, “Applejack! Why did you tell them about me?!”

When she touched down beside Applejack, Raze got a good look at her. She had a rainbow mane and tail with cyan fur. She also had wings which Applejack didn't have.

“Rainbow, I never said you were here specifically, I just implied somepony was with me.” Applejack said to Rainbow.

Raze walked over to the ponies as he was ready to meet them only for the Rainbow maned one to look at him with unmasked anger.

“What do you think you're trying to do, Creature?!” Rainbow spat out as Raze stopped in his tracks.

She flew up to his face, “You're dangerous and you don't need to take another step towards us!” Rainbow said in anger.

Raze was only a few inches away from Rainbow's face and he saw the angry pegasus trying to stare through him. Raze then felt his own anger begin to come up from his mind and he did the only thing that would make it go away.

Raze pushed Rainbow back and she hit the ground with a huff. Applejack ran to her side and helped her up.

Raze watched Applejack pick up the Rainbow named one, “Who do you think you are being like that?”

Rainbow could still feel the strength the creature had and despite being shocked a bit, she got over it quickly, “I'm Rainbow Dash! The Fastest Flier in Equestria!”

“Since we weren't introduced properly, A'hm Applejack! Most dependable pony in Equestria!”

~End of Chapter 3~

Author's Note

Redone For All!

Season 1 The Race of All Races (Redone Chapter)

~Raze’s Journey Chapter 4~

~Continuing Where We Left Off~

The moon was rising into the sky since the day had been spent climbing the mountain and fighting a large dragon. Now Raze was facing his biggest challenge yet, Rainbow Dash and she looked very angry.

“So what's with you, Spikey?!” Rainbow exclaimed as she threw her hoof out at Raze's face, “Just what the hay is your name supposed to be?!”

“First of all, My names not Spikey! Secondly, it's Raze!” Raze said with anger at the pegasus who was brushing dust of her coat from the push into the ground she had received.

“I'm still going to call you Spikey!” Rainbow sneered at Raze who glared back at her with equal ferocity.

Applejack sweat dropped and smiled warily, “Well, it's nice tah meet yah partner.” She said while extending her hoof to Raze.

Raze looked at her apprehensively and Applejack grew a bit more nervous. She'd seen what happened to the dragon and despite her courage in the face of most other dangers, she was sure that she didn't want to mess with this creature.

Raze looked at Derpy who rolled her hoof around as to say, “Get on with it.”

Reluctantly, he shook her hoof, though that gesture confused Applejack. Rainbow on the other hand was still angry at the creature in their midst and wanted to give it a piece of her mind for the mere fact that he had touched any part of one of her friends.

“Hey, Spikey Alien! Don't you tou-” Rainbow could finish the sentence as hoof was stuck her mouth.

Rainbow was surprised by the sudden intervention and even more surprised that it was Derpy doing the hoof shoving, “Please don't be mad at Razey. He only pushed you because you were being rude and getting in his face.”

“Please cool down and stop being so mean, okay Rainbow?” Derpy asked the rainbow maned pegasus.
Rainbow couldn't believe that she was defending an alien creature with weird powers and a destructive personality, 'I won't trust him, this thing has to be something Discord made!'

I can't believe that you're trusting and defending him, Derpy! We need to run the alien out of town before he destroys something else!” Rainbow argued to Derpy.

Before Derpy could manage another word, the Doctor stepped in, “Why would you want to drive him away? I know that he wanted to come up and did admittedly endanger our lives, but he still saved us and it's not like we don't do the same thing to ourselves... Besides, he's pretty good company once you get to know him a bit!”

The Doctor thought that his input would change Rainbow's attitude, but it did nothing to stop the fire of her aggression. Instead, she thought of the ways she knew best on how to solve every kind of issue. The first was hoof wrestling, second involved a competition, and the third, and most importantly, was a race.

Rainbow knew first hoof that his strength was on a whole other level than hers, so hoof wrestling was out before it ever had a chance. Rainbow thought of the competitions that she and Applejack had, then she thought about not being able to actually see some of Raze's movements. That idea was burned up in seconds.

The race sounded far more plausible than all the other ideas thus far and so she decided to go with that, 'He might be fast normally, but a Sonic Rainboom will show him not to mess with me!'

Rainbow smirked at Raze, “I know just how to solve all of this! We can race through the gorge not far from here!”

Raze raised an eyebrow, “Is that really how you want to solve this?” he asked.

Rainbow smiled, 'Gotcha!'

What? Are you scared of racing me?” Rainbow asked with all the sweetness that a cocky foal could muster.

Raze's eyes narrowed in annoyance, “No way! If you want to race then you'll have one!”

Rainbow smiled victoriously, “Well, now for the fun part! If I win this race, you’ll leave and never come back!”

Derpy gasped, “He would have to leave and never return?!”

The Doctor put his hoof to his face and sighed, “She's always being so hot headed...”

Raze scratched his head and then smiled, “What if I win? What do you have that I would want? Or what should I ask for?”

Rainbow's pupils shrunk at that, 'What if he does win? What if I lose?! Would he have me leave forever instead?'

Raze didn't hear a single comeback from the Rainbow hothead, “You know what? I do have an idea of what I want!” He boldly proclaimed to the ponies standing around them.

Rainbow was starting to panic a little, 'Oh no!'

Applejack looked at Rainbow Dash with objectiveness, “Seriously, Rainbow?! What if he asks for yer banishment?! Me and the others will miss yah and won't see yah ever again if he asks for that and wins!”

Rainbow was about ready to call off her proposed race when Raze spoke up, “I'd actually like more of those apples! They're really great!”

Derpy and the Doctor hit the ground rather comically while thinking the same thing, 'He asked for apples?!'

Applejack smiled in earnest, “Actually, Ah don't think that ah mind aliens that much anymore, especially when they can appreciate a great tasting apple!”

Rainbow Dash's mouth hit the dirt, 'Apples? He could ask for anything, but he asked for apples?!'

Rainbow then realized what Applejack had said, “Are you really thinking of defending him just because he likes your apples?! Can't you see what a threat he is?! He could attack other ponies and it would be another disaster just like Discord all over again!”

Applejack frowned, “Ah was only kidding, Sugarcube.”

Applejack turned to Raze, “Ah can agree to those terms and you will definitely have apples, if you win.”

Raze smiled, “I'll definitely make sure to win then, pardner!”

Applejack raised an eyebrow in annoyance, “Are ya making fun of mah accent?”

Raze quickly shook his head, “I don't think I've ever made fun of peo- I mean, ponies’ accents at all!”

Applejack gave him quite a stare and then nodded.

She turned to Rainbow Dash, “Rainbow, now that ya got yer challenge setup, we should get back to Ponyville. Ah need some sleep before the morning comes.”

Before Rainbow Dash could respond, lightning struck from a large cloud, followed by a thunderous boom. Rainbow remembered something that she had forgotten when they had started this spying mission of hers.

Oh, right... The weather team was told to make sure it was cloudy in time for the night so that we could have a rain storm,” Rainbow finished as a large amount of clouds seemed to begin to spread out over the sky from a central point.

Most of the moon was covered as rain began to fall. At first it was a small pitter patter on the rocks, but then it began to grow.

Raze looked around at the ponies before himself, “I could set up my ship, so we have somewhere to stay for the night.”

Rainbow Dash was repulsed by the idea, but Derpy's smile grew out of nowhere, “We could have a sleepover, play games, and all kinds of stuff!” Derpy exclaimed in a short burst.

The Doctor nodded, “That actually sounds just fine to me!”

Rainbow looked between Clockwork and Derpy, “Are you two seriahhhhhhh!” A loud booming thunder sounded and Rainbow had ended the sentence with a loud shriek.

Rainbow now had both of her front hooves above her head. She was looking around nervously while trying to pretend she hadn’t just been scared of thunder.

‘Jeez, I work with thunder and lightning, this is nothing!’ Rainbow thought while mentally slapping herself.

She looked at Raze who was waiting on an answer for an answer from her. Rainbow knew this wasn’t a winning battle for her, so she had no choice.

Applejack tilted her head, “Are ya gonna say somthin?”

That was all it took for Rainbow to cave in, “Okay, fine! We’ll play your little game, but I’m watching you!” She said while pointing her hoof at Raze.

“Fair enough. After all, I wouldn’t want my “Competition” to be tired and worn out before her big race, ” Raze said to her with a big grin on his face.

Rainbow Dash stomped her hoof into the ground in annoyance, “You won’t even make me break a sweat!”

Raze shook his head, ‘She thinks so now, but we’ll see. Oh, I guess this would be a good time to get out the old capsule case.’

He reached into his armor and quickly pulled out the handy carrying case. He looked through them quickly and picked out the right one. He took it out and walked over toward the middle of the area where he wouldn’t be near the mouth of the cave and clicked the top of the capsule. He threw it onto the ground and a large explosion sounded off as a Capsule Corp. ship appeared in all it’s glory, albeit covered in a small layer smoke.

Raze walked up to the button located on the side and pressed it which started the process of opening the main. White smoke blew out of the lock mechanism as it began to open. The hatch slowly made it’s way down to the ground where the ponies genuinely marveled at the machinery, except for Doctor Whooves.

“Well, it’s Ship Sweet Ship. Come on in!” Raze said while walking up the platform.

The Doctor and Derpy followed Raze while two other ponies seemed a bit hesitant.

Rainbow was feeling uneasy, but Applejack put a hoof on her shoulder, “Ah know that we shouldn’t be trusting strangers an such, but we both aren’t going very far and even lightning can be dangerous to you, Rainbow. So…”

Rainbow sighed, “Okay Applejack, I’ll go in for this night, but we’ll leave once the morning gets here.”

With those words, they walked up into the unfamiliar metallic ship. They found that Raze was already bringing some blankets into the main room.

“Will these do, Doctor?” Raze asked him.

“They’ll be just fine, now can I ask to look into your console?” The Doctor asked Raze who shrugged.

“Of course you can. Just don’t mess anything up,” Raze told him to which the Doctor nodded and smiled.

The Doctor proceeded to start taking off the sheet of metal on the side of the main console and dig himself into the innards of the machinery. Derpy took the sheets from Raze and began to lay them out in order to make a proper bed.

Derpy looked at her work of art and smiled, “Thanks Razey! We’ll be able to sleep just fine tonight.”

Raze frowned, “You don’t have to call me that…”

“But you like it!” Derpy exclaimed to Raze with her big sparkling eyes.

‘Ugh… Those eyes…’ Raze decided to just leave it at that because he wouldn’t win in this situation and maybe some part of him did like the pet name. Just a little.

Raze looked around to notice Rainbow Dash and Applejack hadn’t moved too much since the door had shut behind them. Rainbow was looking around with shifty eyes while Applejack just looked around.

‘I guess they’ll never warm up to me… Maybe I should do something...’ Raze scratched his chin.

Raze went to walk toward them and that’s when Rainbow shot him the harshest glare he’d probably get while staying here. Needless to say, he stepped back.

‘Or not.’ Raze turned away and walked back over to his ladder.

“I’m going to sleep myself, it’s been a pretty exhausting day, see all of you tomorrow!” With that, Raze jumped into his ladder well.

~Down the Ladder~

Once he was assured that he was alone, he breathed in heavily and let loose his frustrating thoughts that he'd been having for the past day or so. Raze walked to the end of the small hallway and stood before his room door.

Raze opened the door leading into the one room on the ship and walked inside while discarding the top half of his Yardrat armor. He sat down on the edge of his bed, taking off his boots one at a time.

As they dropped to the floor with a one thud each, he sighed while turning to a heavy duty shelf that held his memories. Medals and trophies for achievements he'd won through his acts that were considered selfless by many, but to him it meant that he got to live another day.

He looked at one object in particular, a clock attached to a long chain that he had used so many times on the front. Raze stood up and walked over to it, taking it into his right hand and opening it revealing two pictures he cherished so much.

'So, it's really true... I'm stuck somewhere so far away that I can't even find coordinates for this place.' He clenched the pocket watch closing it as he remembered his godfather's face when he took the ki bullet for him.

Even further back was the blurry images of his mother who managed to save him at an even younger time in his life. He put down the pocket watch and turned away from it.

"I'm sorry." He said aloud to nobody.

"But for now... After all the thinking I've done this day. I'll have to put off my quest for vengeance." Raze turned back to the small watch.

"Please forgive me..." He said while walking away, leaving the watch to sit out on the shelf untouched.

~To the top Floor~

Derpy found a nice spot on the sheets and took a pillow for herself. She rolled around for a little bit before settling down and beginning her descent into sleep.

The Doctor continued messing with the insides of the ship trying to find the dimensional converter that he thought existed on it. Soon he was messing with wires and such with a much greater enthusiasm than he had before.

Applejack watched Rainbow moving around the room at quick speeds whispering things about the nicknamed, Spikey and talk of evil overlords. Applejack looked away to see Derpy looking very comfortable on the pile of sheets and decided to make the best of the situation.

“Rainbow, Ah’m hittin tha hay. Let me know if you find anythin suspicious,” Applejack said while making her way toward the very luxurious looking sheets.

She grabbed a pillow and a small part of the sheet, then began to fall asleep. Soon enough, she would snore peacefully. Rainbow continued her rounds until she grew more tired of the situation at hoof.

‘I guess that I can’t investigate while being tired...’ Rainbow touched the floor of the capsule corp ship and went to join the ponies underneath the sheets.

The Doctor had messed around with the ship for a few more hours before finally succumbing to his base desire for sleep. He tucked in next to Derpy after closing up the ship’s innards and went forward into dreams of adventure.

Raze was snoring long before that time and the time passed peacefully into the next morning.

~A New Day Has Arrived~

Raze jumped up while grabbing the rail on the sides of the ladder area and curled inward to go all the way down the tunnel like opening to touch the floor beneath without a single hitch.

He then went inside the kitchen and opened his freezer to find a pack of chicken awaiting his eyes. Raze smiled and took the first pack out. He got out a pan and cut up the heat, then he put them together and began to cook.

Around 20 or so minutes later, he had made himself a meal and was promptly full in the next five minutes. At least, for now.

Raze patted his stomach, “That hit the spot!” He leaned back in his chair slightly with a content smile.

Derpy moved while in her current position and Rainbows wings moved forward to tickle her nose a bit, her muzzle scrunched up a bit at that. The feathers continued tickling her and soon a enough her eyes opened as she sneezed.

Derpy immediately took notice of her surroundings and rolled away from the pony pile. She then got to her hooves and yawned while putting her left front hoof to her mouth to stifle it. The damage had already been done anyway and it had been caused by her sneeze earlier.

Rainbow Dash opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was Applejack’s hoof in front of her face. She immediately let go and got up which alarmed Applejack who also get up quickly.

Applejack turned away quickly, “We ain’t speaking about this, okay?”

Rainbow nodded sheepishly and then realized her surroundings immediately. She began to look around and remembered that she was on a particularly untrustworthy alien’s ship. She immediately upped her defenses and looked around with varying degrees of wariness.

Applejack looked around and immediately noticed the bag of apples she had given the Doctor and Derpy just the other day. She immediately picked them and brought them to the waking ponies.

“Looks like there are just enough here ta have breakfast, everypony dig in!” Applejack said with a smile.

Derpy nodded and went over to the Doctor and bopped him on his nose softly, “Time to get up, Doccy.”

The Doctor rolled over while mumbling, “Don’t wanna…”

Derpy smiled, “I promise to make it worth your while later if you get up…” She trailed off while leaning down and licking his muzzle.

The Doctor opened his eyes at that, “Worth my while? Or would it be worth more to you?” The Doctor smiled and licked her muzzle back prompting Derpy to blush.

Rainbow stuck a hoof onto her tongue and mock gagged at the scene, “Can’t you two save the mushy stuff for later?”

Applejack nodded in agreement, “It’s not that we don’t support ya’ll two being together and all, but do ya’ll have to do this stuff in front of us?”

Derpy and the Doctor blushed a bit, but they didn’t for long as the smell of apples was more enticing at the moment. They both took an apple and began to munch on them just as Raze climbed up the ladder and got onto the tiles of the top floor.

Raze looked at them and noticed that his bag of apples was completely depleted of it’s red treasure. He silently bemoaned their fate, but put on a half smile despite that.

“Hey, did everyone sleep alright?” He asked them all.

Derpy smiled at Raze, “Good morning, Razey!”

The Doctor nodded, “Yes, good morning to you and it was a nice sleep, but it seemed colder as the night went on…”

Applejack gave a half smile, “Yeah, thanks for the hospitality an such.”

Rainbow Dash still had memories of the morning and grunted in response to Raze. Needless to say, he didn’t press the question with her.

Raze’s half smile became a full smile as he remembered what had happened yesterday, ‘She can be grumpy all she wants, all I have to do is win a race and I can have all the apples I want! But where are we going to race?’

Rainbow Dash tossed an eaten apple core into the bag and turned to race with a competitive flare as she also remembered her new challenge, “Just in case you were wondering, the race is going to happen in Ghastly Gorge!”

She then smirked, “But I’m sure you’ll back out because you know you’re going to lose against me.”

Raze frowned, “We’ll see about that won’t we?” He said to her mockingly.

Rainbow frowned at that, “Yeah, I’ll show you that the only thing you’re going to see is a rainbow blur pass by you all the way to the finish!”

Raze shook his head, “Fine!”

Rainbow stuck out her tongue, “Fine!”

She began to walk toward the exit until she realized something; she’d completely forgot to tell him the time for when the race would be.

She turned around quickly, “Oh and, the time for the race will be three o’clock! Don’t chicken out!”

She turned back and walked straight into a door causing her to fall backward onto her plot. She rubbed her muzzle as Raze walked up beside her and clicked a button to open the ship’s hatch.

The doors opened and a breeze blew into the room.

Raze smiled at Rainbow, “You’re welcome.”

Rainbow held her muzzle for a second and then put her hoof down. She snorted at Raze while opening her wings and speeding off. Then seconds later, she came back and looked at Applejack.

Applejack understood and then trotted out of the ship.

Raze stood in the doorway for a few moments before turning around and walking back to the last two ponies on his ship.

Derpy frowned, “That Rainbow Dash is always a bit hot headed…”

Raze shook his head, “I’m fine with that, I’ll just have to beat her at her own game.”

The Doctor nodded, “Indeed you will. Now we’ll be going as well. I’m sure that you’re curious about our world, so once we leave, I’m assuming that you will go out to see the place you will have to call home for a whil-”

Derpy jumped into the conversation, “So we were going to give you this!”

Derpy pulled out a brown bag from a place that Raze couldn’t possibly know of. She held it in front of him and seemed to be waiting for him to do something. Raze decided to reach out and take the bag from her.

The Doctor smiled, “There are about twenty bits within that bag, so it should help you out if you want something to eat later on. Also, here’s a map of Equestria.”

Raze took hold of the map. It looked like it had been made by children for children, ‘Well, at least I’ll know where Ghastly Gorge is…’

“ -nd that’s why we gave you these items, we hope you’ll put them to good use!” The Doctor said to Raze who nodded.

“I will! Thanks!” Raze said as the Doctor and Derpy gathered their things up.

“Well, we’re off! Have a good time exploring! And we’ll meet you at Ghastly Gorge!” The Doctor said as he trotted out of the ship.

Derpy smiled, “See ya, Razey!”

‘I can’t stand the name, but… Forget it, I’ve got some flying to do!’ Raze thought while looking up at the bright blue sky. ‘I wish the skies on my world were this bright...’ Raze walked out of the ship and prompted the doors to shut behind him.

The wind blew upon his gi and they rippled with while Raze shut his eyes and took a deep breath. He exhaled while walking toward the edge of the mountain.

He stopped just short of the edge and looked downward, ‘This is going to be fun!’

That’s when a low rumbling sound came from the cave. Raze turned to see Pyrus making his way out. The dragon looked into the sky and shook himself a bit before looking around his environment.

He saw the ship and turned immediately to see Raze. His eyes narrowed a bit, but he said nothing to the warrior as he opened his wings and gave them a test flap. Today he would dine on some unfortunate creature in the Everfree Forest or find something within the lake nearby.

He quickly sped up his flapping and took to the sky. Raze’s clothes and hair were blown by the amount of wind that the dragon kicked up in his ascent. Raze watched him disappear over the skyline and decided that he was ready for his own test flight.

Raze quickly dived off the side of the mountain. The wind blew at his body as a white aura covered him whole. He accelerated forward and ripped through several wild clouds.

Droplets of rain water covered his gi, but it quickly dried as he flew through the air.

“YEAH!” Raze exclaimed while blasting through the air.

Raze saw a lake and immediately crashed into it. A somewhat small splash occurred and a few ponies that happened to be in the area were wondering if a pegasus just crashed into the water.

One pony had a camera and quickly moved towards the edge of the water. Surely she’d get a good picture of whatever had crashed.

Beneath the water, Raze swam around.‘Most of the water here is so clear…’

Indeed it was, he’d never seen so many different types of fish living in one area. But then again, he’d never seen too much of anything

‘Hmmm… Well, can’t stay in one place forever!’ Raze powered up, causing the water above to start trembling a bit.

A few seconds passed for the ponies above that watched as the pebbles began to move around constantly on the shoreline. That’s when a huge upheaval of water rose from the center with a small figure blasting out of it with great force. The pony holding the camera snapped for a picture and then proceeded to be drenched in lake water along with the other ponies.

Raze flew through the sky while having his gi air dried at the same time. He looked at his watch to confirm that the time was twelve o’clock, “I should have plenty of time to do a lot more exploring! So… Where to?”

He pulled out the small map and realized something was strange about it. ‘This looks like it was drawn by a two year old kid...’

Raze saw no reason to continue trying to make it out and put it back in his pocket. He continued flying until he saw a small cottage on the edge of the woods he’d knocked Pyrus into.

‘Somebody must live there, maybe they have a map!’ Raze quickly landed near on a dirt path that led to the quaint home.

He walked up the small path with a stride as he reached the door. Raze knocked on it and waited for a few seconds before finally scratching his head in confusion.

‘Maybe nobod-’ Raze looked over at one of the front windows and saw glowing ocean blue eyes staring at him from behind the transparent glass.

She finally took notice to being stared at and quickly shut the curtains.

‘Was it somethin-’ The door was opened to a point, and he immediately caught sight of a butter yellow pegasus pony.
“Uhhh… Hello?” Raze questioned the pony below him.

She turned her head curiously, ‘Is this that thing that Rainbow Dash told me about?’

Raze stood there as the pegasus continued looking at him strangely. He didn’t say anything, but it was getting a little unnerving.

She brushed her front left hoof against the ground awkwardly, “Ummm… Are you that creature Rainbow told me about it?”

Raze scratched his head. ‘Could this be any more weird…’

“Uhh… Yeah sure… Can I get some directions? I have a map, but it’s so crudely drawn that I’d have no clue or know of any place to go…” Raze finished while taking out the atrocity that was the map.

Fluttershy looked at it and then back at him, “Oh, Well, I uhhh... Know my way around Ponyville, why don’t you come inside and tell me about yourself.”

Raze looked at the pegasus and shrugged, “I guess so…”

Fluttershy watched him walk inside and shut the door, “So, would you tell me about yourself?” She asked the bipedal alien.

Raze looked around at all the animals scattering about the area, “Well, since you asked, I’m Raze. What about you?”

She slightly smiled, “I’m Fluttershy.”

Raze shrugged, “Nice to meet you, I guess…”

Fluttershy frowned slightly, “It’s nice to meet you too! Would you like any tea?”

Raze shook his head, “I’ll pass.”

“Well, uhhh… the offer still stands.” Fluttershy said a bit quieter as Raze turned his head to her.

“Can you speak up?” Raze asked the pony that now seemed to hide behind her mane at his question.

“Ummmm… Maybe?” She asked and stated rather quietly.

This was the start of a conversation between pony and saiyan. The two chatted for few hours on end. Raze had eventually decided to get some tea and slightly enjoyed the company of Fluttershy. At least until two thirty.

Raze put down his third cup of tea as Fluttershy quietly sipped on her own drink. Suddenly, a loud banging was heard at the door. Fluttershy immediately went to go see who it was.

“Rainbow Dash?” Fluttershy said with uncertainty while trying to stand in a way that might block Raze from her view.

“Yeah! Fluttershy, you ready to see me put a beat down on an alien?!” Rainbow Dash exclaimed with a cocky grin.
“Ummm… Yes?” Fluttershy said uncertainly while trying to keep being the center of attention as rainbow pushed her over to see something that caught her eye.

“HEY! What’re you doing here?!” She asked while going by Fluttershy completely.

“It’s you again!” Raze walked over to her.

Rainbow flew up into his face, “What are you doing here with Fluttershy?!”

“What are you doing getting in my face again?!” Raze yelled at the rainbow pain in his ass.

Fluttershy quickly galloped over to them, “Please stop! We don’t need to-”

Rainbow Dash huffed, “Well, it doesn’t matter anyway! I’m going to win against you and kick you out of our town!”

Raze frowned at that, “Sure… You’re totally going to win. Your so awesome. I wish I could be just like you!”

“HEY! Stop being so sarcastimigic!” Rainbow exclaim while trailing back on her words.

“It’s sarcastic or sarcasm.” Raze said with a smirk.

Rainbow flushed in embarrassment, “Hey! I knew that, shut-up!”

“Sure…” Raze trailed off while walking away from the frozen pegasus.

“Well, the tea wasn’t bad, Fluttershy. Thanks for the directions and I’ll be seeing you soon!” Raze said while leaving the house and flying off.

~Back at the Homestead~

Fluttershy looked at Rainbow Dash with disapproval, “He really isn’t that bad you know, you could stand to be a bit nicer to him.”

Rainbow Dash wilted under the gaze of Fluttershy a bit, “But he started it! He pushed me down the other day then he put Time Turner and Derpy in trouble! We saw what he did! He’s nothing but trouble!”

“Maybe it was different from their point of view! Anyway, you should get to know someone before assuming that they’re the problem!” Fluttershy while trotting out of her home.

Rainbow Dash looked down at her hooves, but looked up with resolve, ‘They’ll see what I’m talking about! Somehow...’

~With Our Main Hero~

Raze flew high above in the sky with a destination in mind, ‘Alright, with the directions I’ve been given, the gorge should be in that direction.”

He said while looking in said direction pointed out to him by Fluttershy earlier. He blasted toward the apparent raceway with thoughts of victory high in his head.

He touched down and took a small look around the landscape, ‘Wow, this sure does look ominous.’

The gorge was filled with stalagmites and gray rock towered above a flowing river. There seemed to be all kinds of creatures swimming and flying up from the ground below. He even saw a large patch of thorns pretty far up ahead.

‘I suppose we’re expected to fly through all that? Well, I’m going to have to say no to that.’ Raze thought as he heard some hoof steps coming from a path.

He turned to find a small group of ponies making their way over to him. Purple, White, Fluttershy, Rainbow Menace, Pink, and Applejack.

“Ready to be floored, Alien?!” Rainbow said with a smirk.

“Let’s see what you’ve got!” Raze exclaimed.

The purple one walked up to Raze with an intriguing look on her face, “Hello there, ermm…”

“My name is, Twilight Sparkle. What’s your name?” She asked with a little too much enthusiasm.

Raze almost started backing up, “I’m Raze and what about the rest of them?” He said while pointing at them.

The white one frowned, “It’s rude to point you know.”

Twilight looked at her friends, “This is Rarity and Pinkie Pie. I’m sure you know the rest of them already.”

Raze nodded, “Yeah, it’s kind of hard to forget names like those!” He scratched the back of his head while turning back to the soon to be race track.

Another set of hoofsteps was heard by Raze as The Doctor and Derpy joined them all. Raze immediately went over to them.

“Where have you two been all day?” Raze asked them both.

“Around Ponyville and everywhere else.” The Doctor said to him with a small smile.

Derpy nodded with shining mismatched eyes, “But now we’re here to root for you!”

Raze smiled a bit, “Thanks, though I think that I will be just fine! She really won’t win!”

Rainbow Dash frowned for yet another time that same day, “UGH! You don’t know the half of it!”

“Let’s find out then, shall we?” Raze said while moving to the starting line.

Rainbow Dash smirked, “Yeah, lets!”

Rainbow Dash and Raze finally stood next to each other. Pinkie stood next to the starting line with a flag in her maw. Twilight stood at the ready to perform her teleportation spell in order to be at the finish line.

Pinkie looked at them both and moved the flag upward. Raze and Rainbow leaned forward and the ground slightly broke as he put pressure into the rock beneath his feet.

Pinkie swung the flag downward and both of the racers disappeared while blasting straight into the gorge. Twilight activated her spell as Pinkie joined her and they were gone in a flash.

Rainbow Dash was pretty confident at this point. There was no way that some alien could possibly beat her where she was in her best form. She wove in and out of some rocky overhangs all without decreasing her speed.

‘What did I have to worry about? This is going to be so easy!’ Rainbow thought to herself as she looked ahead with overconfidence brimming out from all over her face.

But reality seemed to be a winner today as she found Raze lazily flying backwards right in front of her, “HEY!? You’re supposed to be back there!” Rainbow Dash yelled at the alien.

“Nobody said that I was supposed to stay behind you. Not like I don’t have free will.” Raze said to the now annoyed pegasus.

“A smart flank huh? Well, I’ll show you!” Rainbow Dash began to increase her flapping and was now next to the creature.

“HA! This is going to be so easy!” Rainbow exclaimed while zooming onward and leaving Raze behind.

She continued onward and found Raze flying beside her yet again, “Hey! I saw you move forward in slow motion, can you do that again?” Raze asked with a small smirk.

Rainbow Dash frowned and sped up once more, this time they were coming towards the first obstacle a series of looping rock formations. She began to weave in and out just as Raze joined her.

Flying side by side the two blasted through every single loop with reckless abandon. Raze being larger went through several of the formations causing rocks to fall into the abyss.

He continued through only to see Rainbow Dash already approaching the next obstacle. A large patch of thorns seemed to cover most of the area with little room for crazy dives or much dodging to occur. But above it was a large foundation of rock.

He saw Rainbow Dash fly into the thorns and not come up, ‘There must be a tunnel in there, btu there’s no way that I’m going through it!’

He summoned ki into his hands and fired an energy ball into the patch causing a large explosion and a large portion of the patch to burn away from the area. Rainbow Dash looked back in shock as fire spread toward her.

“WHAT THE HAY?!” She yelled in confusion while reaching the tunnel underneath the devastated thorn patch.

Raze followed through the tunnel while the thorns continued to burn. Smoke rose into the air and was quickly seen by the bystanding ponies at the finish line.

~Bystanders~

The Doctor frowned, “I wonder what could have caused that…”

Twilight shook her head, “I hope Rainbow is alright…”

Pinkie jumped up, “Dashie can handle anything!”

Fluttershy looked around, “Maybe we should stop the fire anyway, It could end up spreading up the canyon and toward all the little animals in the forest.”

Twilight nodded, “If you can get me at least one cloud Fluttershy, I can use magic to make it larger and it’ll have enough water to stop it entirely.”

“Ok, Twilight.” Fluttershy flew into the sky upon sighting a cloud.

Derpy opened her wings as well, “I’m going to go help her, Doctor. See you all in a bit!” She flapped her wings and took off in Fluttershy’s direction.

The Doctor waved to Derpy, “See you later!”

Twilight teleported toward the fiery area which left the other ponies waiting.

~Back to our Racers~

Raze caught up to Rainbow Dash as soon as they left the tunnel, “Miss me?” He questioned her to which she turned her head angrily toward him.

“Why’d you have to start a fire back there?!” Rainbow yelled at him.

“I didn’t mean to… It just happened, it’ll be fine! There’s a river not too far off. We’ll be able to get water from that when I win!” Raze said calmly to the now enraged pegasus.

“Making dangerous situations and still thinking you have any chance to win?! I’ll definitely show you up!” Rainbow Dash said as they made it toward the Quarray Eels.

Rainbow Dash began to concentrate on her last ditch effort move, ‘A Sonic Rainboom will put this guy on the loser board for sure! Just gotta focus!’

Raze began to focus his strength, ‘Time to leave her in the dust!’

“KAIOKEN TIMES 10!” He blasted forward and straight past Rainbow who had formed a cone of air around her body. Energy seemed to spread from Rainbow at that moment.

‘She has a power level?!’ Raze questioned himself as a huge oval rainbow colors blasted out from behind Rainbow Dash.

She left a rainbow contrail as she came to be beside Raze, “IT’S NOT OVER YET!” She yelled as Raze increased his Kaioken.

“KAIOKEN TIMES 25!” His red aura burst alive as he and Rainbow passed the Quarray Eels who stayed inside their holes out of fear.

Pinkie stood beside the finish line with a camera and clicked it as soon as both racers passed the finish line. The ponies were then blown backwards by the wind that followed the speedy racers.

Applejack dug her left front hoof into her hat to keep it from flying away. Rarity had grabbed a tree and Pinkie seemed to ignore the entire brunt of the force.

Rainbow Dash immediately made a u-turn in midair and and flew back to Pinkie with an anxious look upon her face, “Who won?! Who won?! WHO WON?!” She exclaimed to Pinkie.

Pinkie shrugged, “We have to wait for the picture to develop and for everypony else to get back. They had to put out that fire which was started by accident.”

Rainbow Dash frowned, “Well, he-”

“He what? We can fix the situation just fine. There’s plenty of water around here.” Raze said while jumping up and flying toward the now cloud covered area.

Rainbow Dash narrowed her eyes at the disappearing dot that was Raze, “I’m not being shown up by an alien! I’ll show him!” She flapped her wings and flew off to go help the other ponies.

Pinkie watched them disappear on the horizon with a small look of confusion on her face, “But it’s almost done! They practically have it solved!” She yelled, but they didn't turn back at that nor hear her in the first place.

~The Firefighting Ponies~

Twilight blasted the clouds with magic that forced them to grow larger and much darker quickly. The rain continued to pound down onto the fires below.

Derpy watched closely alongside Fluttershy as the fire continued to roar despite their collective efforts to stop it. That’s when Raze and Rainbow Dash showed up.

“Hey! I’m here to help!” Raze said while landing next to the ponies.

“Me too!” Rainbow Dash exclaimed while landing next to Raze.

“Well, I’m gonna go ahead and stop it!” Raze said while jumping off the cliff side.

He jumped from rock formation to the next as he finally made it to the river. The fire had made the area seem to steam up from all the heat mixing with the cold rock.

Raze blocked some of the heat with the side of his arm while jumping into the river. Rainbow Dash blasted through the smoke and started to flap her wings slightly slower in order to stay above the river.

“This is my Rainbow Tornado!” Rainbow Dash said cockily while beginning to fly in an oval.

Raze watched as she began to gather water into the middle of her flight pattern. The water began to rise up further and further until it was a small typhoon.

Raze’s eyes widened, “That’s pretty cool…”

Rainbow Dash focused on her spin and began to approach the flames, “Alright! Time to show this fire who’s boss!”

The water from the rising water spread over the flames and brought them a considerable bit, but there were far more than Rainbow could possibly handle on her own.

Raze put both of his hands out and blasted the river with his ki reinforced air. The air lifted the water higher than Rainbow’s mini typhoon and even covered the rest of the area. Along with the clouds continuing the downpour from above, the fire died away leaving charred remains of what used to be there that still slightly smoked up before disappearing altogether.

‘That went well...’ Raze thought as he flew back up to the area where all the other ponies were currently at.

Twilight walked over to him while being followed by Derpy and Fluttershy. Fluttershy gave him a small smile while another bout of flapping was heard as Rainbow Dash joined them finally.

Raze looked at her, “You’re a bit wet.” He said to Rainbow who narrowed her eyes further.

“Are you alright, Rainbow?” Fluttershy asked with concern heavy on her voice.

“I’m awesome! Besides, don’t we have a picture to go look at anyway?!” She said with with a bit of fire in her voice directed towards Raze.

“I guess we do…” Raze trailed off while looking away.

Twilight arched an eye at that, “We’ll to that, but I want to know his name before we go back.”

“Why would you want to know his name? Just call him an Alien or something… It doesn’t really matter.” Rainbow said with a flick of her tail.

“But that’s kind of rude and I need to do some analyzing of his species! The princess would probably love to hear of an unknown species living in Equestria.” Twilight said while pulling a notebook and quill out of her saddlebags.

Fluttershy looked away from Rainbow Dash for a moment, “His name is, Raze and he’s really not that bad a person.”

Derpy joined in too, “Yeah! Razey is a pretty cool guy!”

“So… Raze.” Twilight said while writing down the name.

“Can you tell me more about yourself?” Twilight asked as Raze backed up a bit.

“Uhhh… Can we do that later? I’m actually kind of curious about the picture myself.” Raze finished with a smile.

Twilight sighed, “I guess so…” She put everything up and quickly brought the ponies plus one Raze together.

She fired up her horn and teleported them all back to the finish line.

~The Finish Line~

Pinkie held the picture in her hoof while continuously looking at it because she simply couldn’t believe what she was looking at. Applejack was talking with Rarity and she was laying on a luxurious couch like item.

A pop of magical energy and an entire group of ponies with one Raze appeared in the center of the clearing. Rainbow Dash immediately went over to Pinkie.

“Let me see that!” Rainbow quickly said while failing to grab it away from Pinkie.

“Okay, but I’m showing it to everyone!” Pinkie said while turning to the others.

~End of Chapter~

Author's Note

Finally Redone For All! Enjoy!

Season 1 Hair Lengths Do Count (Redone Chapter)

~Chapter 5 of Raze's Journey~

Rainbow Dash had looked at the photo many times when everyone else had finally lost interest in it. She couldn’t believe that this alien had just taken her thunder.

‘I lost...’ She still remembered what was said just five minutes before and her mind kept replaying it over and over again like a broken record.

~Five Minutes Earlier~

“He beat me by a hair length?! I want a rematch!” Rainbow Dash demanded quite adamantly.

Raze shook his head, “Nah, I like this outcome. Besides, I was going pretty easy on you throughout the race. I can normally fly a lot faster than this on any occasion. Though, that Sonic Rainboom thing was pretty cool…”

“Stop trying to compliment me! It’s all fake anyway! Stupid Alien…” Rainbow Dash said with a slight pout.

Raze frowned, “Well, fine! Don’t take the compliment. I was just trying to have good sportsmanship as a good victor should. should. should. should. should.”

~Flashback Sequence Break~

Rainbow Dash sat down on her haunches and continued her disbelief while the other ponies asked Raze questions about himself. Twilight was amorously scribbling things into her notepad while Rarity asked her questions.

“And what is that dreadful garb you’re wearing?” She asked the saiyan warrior.

“It’s called, “Yardrat Armor”. I’ve worn this ever since I was a kid, or at least since I was five. Why does it look dreadful to you? I think it’s pretty cool.” Raze said while Rarity frowned.

“Darling, I could make you a much better set of clothing! Even armour if I get the right material.” Rarity finished with a small smile.

“Ehhh… I do have other Gis besides this. So, I should be just fine if I wash them and stuff…” Raze trailed off while taking a test smell of his clothing underneath the armor.

Raze immediately moved his head back away from the clothing with a look of disgust on his face, “Actually, I might do that soon.”

Rarity backed off a bit with a small frown, “Please do.”

Raze nodded and then looked over at the other ponies, “Well, it was to meet you six, but I have to go back to the ship.”

Twilight frowned, “Why do you have to go? I was hoping you’d come with us to Ponyville so I could do some tests on you.”

“No thanks.” Raze said instantly while turning away only to see Applejack and Pinkie standing nearby.

Applejack looked thoughtful, “Well, yew may have ta visit anyway.”

Raze was confused, “Why would I have to?”

Applejack nodded, “Yeah, I guess that would be weird for ya. But since you won the race, you have to collect your prize. I’ll have more of them apples waiting for ya on the farm.”

“I completely forgot about that!” Raze exclaimed as his mind turned toward the tasty fruit.

“Well, you should come on up when you feel ready to receive the prize. Until that time though, we should really get going ourselves.” Applejack said as Pinkie frowned.

“But don’t I get to throw a party for him, Applejack?” She asked her.

“When he’s ready, he’ll surely come visit Ponyville. Just wait fer a bit, Pinkie.” Applejack finished with a small smile.

“I’ll definitely get around to it sometime, maybe tomorrow even though I’m not sure what to expect...” Raze said while scratching his head.

“Ya should get there early then. Around nine or so should be fine.” Applejack said while leaving the area.

“No promises.” Raze said while turning to see Twilight leaving as well with Rainbow Dash in tow.

Twilight gave a small smile toward Raze and Rainbow Dash seemed to scowl as they both walked away. Raze just watched them go without a word. Rarity followed them alongside Pinkie who seemed a tiny bit deflated almost, but Raze wouldn’t question it.

‘There’s nothing too strange in the world… Except Discord… Come to think of it. Where is he?’ Raze looked around everywhere, but nothing seemed out of place except that Derpy and the Doctor were still there.

The Doctor smiled, “Looks like you’ve made your first successful contact with a whole new world. Congratulations on that effort.”

Raze frowned, “I don’t feel like I’ve done anything that deserves a congratulations. I think I’ve pissed off Rainbow Dash for good.”

“Well, one out of six is still pretty good, Razey.” Derpy said with encouragement.

“I guess so…” Raze trailed off as the Doctor stepped up.

“Don’t push yourself too hard on this. Trust me, sometimes it takes a while to start off a friendship or even gain somebody’s trust at all. Remember, you’re the one who’s gotta take the first step if the other isn’t willing to do so.” The Doctor finished while turning to where the Mane Six had headed.

Derpy noticed the Doctor staring in that direction and nodded in understanding, “We have to go for now, Razey. My little Muffin is staying with Carrot Top at the moment, but I need to check on her.”

“I understand. You’ll visit later, right?” Raze asked them both to which they nodded.

“Why even ask? Of course we’ll visit!” The Doctor said with a smile.

“What kind of friends would we be if we didn’t?” Derpy asked him.

“Friends? We’re really friends?” Raze asked them.

“Of course!” Derpy exclaimed.

“And don’t forget that.” The Doctor added.

The Doctor continued further, “And we’ll definitely be planning to see you soon, but till then we have some things to attend to.”

Raze nodded quickly, “So do I! See you both later!” He floated into the sky slightly as the Time Duo waved their hooves.

“See ya, Raze!” The Doctor stated alongside Derpy.

With that, they left him alone in the clearing. The wind blew slightly as Raze flew off into the sky. The sun seemed to be sinking lower into the sky as he seemed to pass in front of it.

His mind continued thinking of what may happen when he visits the town of Ponyville. He wasn’t sure of the answer itself. He only assumed that he would be looked down upon at least from his point of view.

~Atop the Mountain~

Raze landed on the rocky plateau and walked toward his ship only for another voice to speak up, “So you’ve returned?” Raze stopped in his tracks.

He turned to face Pyrus,“Yeah, and I’m happy to see that nothing's changed.”

Pyrus snorted up some smoke from his nostrils, “You don’t seem to be quite the same as before.”

“When did you have any chance to know me?” Raze questioned the creature.

Pyrus seemed to be grunting slightly, but it seemed to be a deep chuckle almost with the barest hint of a snarl, “One warrior to another. I’ve fought many battles in my time. You seem to be lighter than you were the first time I’ve seen you. Watch yourself, or you might become soft here.”

“I don’t think what I do is any of your business.” Raze finished as he turned away and stalked off to his ship.

Pyrus watched him disappear inside the metallic sphere and then he went back inside the main cave with swing of his tail.

~Inside the Ship~

Raze looked around the inside of his ship and while still going for the main ladder. He made it there in seconds and slid down the side with ease.

He proceeded to get ready for bed and then eagerly got under the covers waiting for his dreams to come forth.

‘Not sure...’ He thought while drifting off to sleep.

~Within a Dream~

Raze looked around at the pink skies filled with cotton candy clouds. Chocolate rain poured down into lakes with marshmallows floating on the surface. A ship made out of marshmallows itself seemed to be anchored in the lake.

“I think that-”

“Discord is here? Of course!” Raze found himself in a chair with something akin to a margarita of sorts on a table made of chocolate and possibly half mahogany.

“Take a load off, I sure have!” Discord exclaimed cheerily as another Discord walked up with more drinks.

“Let me know when either one of you are in need of service.” Discord Number Two stated to the first seated draconequus and one saiyan.

“Why thanks, Me.” Discord stated to himself.

“No problem.” With that, he disappeared in a puff of smoke.

“So, enjoying your new world, Raze?” Discord questioned.

Raze frowned at that, “Not really…”

Discord put his cup down immediately at that, “Well, why not? You’ve gotten new friends and have made nice with everypony so far except Rainbow Maned Disaster, but she’s always a little stubborn.”

“Well, I’d like to go back home in all honesty.” Raze said while taking a sip of whatever he’d been given.

“So, you’d rather hunt down murderers than be in some peaceful place away from the darkness of your world? I do see the appeal in a different way, but it’s only because of the absolute chaos in your dimension and maybe all the amazing fights that happen can factor into it as well.” Discord finished while snapping up some new background elements.

“Well, on that, I can agree. But my world was filled with death and uncertainty while this place is much more different. ” Raze trailed off in thought.

“It’s boring here, I know.” Discord stated while Raze shook his head.

“Boring isn’t how I’d describe it.” Raze finished with a small smile.

“Oh believe me, these ponies are quite boring, at least when compared to me. Though, you haven’t seen the past in which these ponies descended from.” Discord said to Raze.

“What do you mean?” He asked quickly.

Discord frowned, “Trust me, our world is not as happy as it seems. You only can assume, though I know we’ve had many dark times here. There’s a good chance of something popping up any day of the week. Just wait, you’ll see.”

Raze had no idea what to say to that as he saw the landscape begin to change rapidly. Discord waved to him as he faded away from existence.

~Wake Up~

Raze opened his eyes and shot up out of bed, ‘Woah, why do I feel like a spaceship hit me?’

He noticed sunlight seeping through his window and knew it was morning. Raze quickly threw off the covers and headed for the bathroom to the business. Fifteen minutes passed and he walked out with a smile on his face.

‘That’s just what I needed! Now to eat!’ Raze thought while walking into the kitchen clad in boxers.

He immediately locked eyes with the fridge and opened it up. He put it back quickly and searched around for something else.

“And there’s the energy drink.” Raze stated while also pressing the muffin button in the back of the fridge.

They were done in seconds and eaten in the same amount of time. He quickly got into his Yardrat Armor and looked at the clock. It seemed to be ten thirty which made Raze open his eyes wide in surprise.

“I’m late!” Raze ran to the ladder and flew up the opening and did a backflip landing upon his feet while running for the door.

Raze quickly opened up his ship’s main hatch and ran outside into the bright sunlight of the early morning. He noticed that there a few stray clouds and that Pyrus wasn’t anywhere nearby.

He jumped off the edge of the mountain and blasted off towards the Ponyville area that he could see over the horizon. Though he still had no idea how he’d get to the farm that had been mentioned by Applejack.

Landing just on the outskirts of town, Raze quickly began surveying the area as he approached the first bridge leading to the town’s innards.

He passed by a few colorful buildings and noticed three ponies walking together in group while passing some stands located in a large circle that bore produce for the town.

Raze flagged them down by quickly waving his right arm in the air. “Hey! Do you three know how to get to Sw-” He never got to finish as the three shrieked while pointing all of their hooves at him.

“It’s a monster!” The first pale yellow pony yelled while Raze stood frozen with a confused look on his face.

“A monster? Where?” Raze looked around and felt nothing with his senses as the ponies scattered causing several other ponies to join in.

Soon, Raze found himself standing in what seemed to be a wasteland. He even swore that a tumbleweed had blown past his feet.

‘This is exactly why I wanted to avoid this place…’ Raze felt the eyes staring at him from within the confined houses as he pressed forward on his journey to find a farm.

He walked through the town while messing with his futuristic belt and trying to avoid staring into the many windows. Raze kicked up the dust while now just about to fly off until he heard a familiar voice that seemed to be coming up from directly behind him.

“Hey there, Razey!” Said an exuberantly happy voice.
Raze turned to the source only to discover that it was pink pony he’d met at the race the other day, “Uhhh… Was your name, Blinkie Pie?”

“No, Silly! It’s Pinkie Pie! And you look pretty lost here.” Pinkie said matter of factly.

“To be honest? Yeah! And every other one of your species is having a fear fit…” Raze trailed off while shaking his head in a small amount of disbelief.

Pinkie nodded. “We love to panic, it’s kind of like a hobby and keeps everyday from being really obvious!”

“That’s a thing here? Strange… Ummm… Would you happen to know where Sweet Apple Acres is?” Raze asked her while scratching his head.

“Sure! Just follow me! Your Auntie Pinkie will show you the way!” She finished while hopping along with a confused Raze following behind.

Within a few minutes, they had made it to their intended destination.

“Applejack should be in this field over here!” Pinkie said while leading Raze into the trees.

“That’s great! But I’m sure she’ll be mad since I was late…” Raze asked her while looking around at all the red juicy apples hanging from the trees.

“Ya know, Ah can hear ya’ll both speakin bout me!” Applejack said while coming out of the trees.

She looked over to Raze, “Looks like ya finally got here. Took long enough, dintcha?” She asked him.

“Sorry about that… I kinda overslept.” Raze finished sheepishly while AJ shook her head.

“Well, follow me. Ah don’t have much time since Ahm on break, so let’s go ahead and get yer prize.” She said while leading Pinkie and Raze toward the large red barn that sat next to a house upon a hill.

“Here ya go, one barrel of apples and more if ya do need it. Now, Ah should probably get back tah work.” Applejack stated as Raze looked up from the barrel.

“Do you need any help? I mean, I do wanna get outta here, but it seems wrong to just take this and go.” Raze finished while looking at the field.

“Uhh… Ah’m not so sure it’d be a good idea.” Applejack said while Raze walked over to the first apple filled tree he could find.

“Are you sure? I know I could probably get them down pretty fast.” Raze returned with.

Applejack remembered her lessons to not refuse help if she needed and then decided that maybe it wouldn’t hurt to let him try. “Ah guess it won’t hurt none. Give er yer best shot!”

Raze nodded and tapped the trunk with his knuckle. ‘Not bad, it’s pretty sturdy! Let’s give it some juice though...’ He brought energy into his hand and pulled his fist back.

He thrust it forward bashing the trunk causing it to completely uproot from the ground with a harsh ripping sound. The tree flew into the air as dirt clods tumbled back down with somewhat large rocks mixed in. Applejack looked at Raze and then the large hole in the ground.

Pinkie scuffed the dirt with her hoof and sighed, “Applejack?”

“Yeah, Pinkie?” Applejack asked her.

“See you tonight.” Pinkie said to her while trotting over to Raze.

~Many Hours Later~

“-And that’s how I led you here to Sugarcube Corner!” Pinkie said to the saiyan who was eating an apple.

“You did what now?” Raze asked as Pinkie opened the doors to her humble home and was greeted by a loud.

“SURPRISE!”

Author's Note

I've redone this chapter finally. I sacrificed length, but I'm not sure if it's any better. Of course, the grammar is leaps and bounds over the original. Please tell me what you think!

Season 1 Saiyans Can't Dance Part 2 (Redone Chapter)

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Season 1 Facing Your Darkside

Author's Note

This chapter has to be written all over again due to the fact that I made this chapter when I was a beginner level writer. I would suggest that you not read this or any other chapters afterward as they are a mess. Chapter 1 - 3 have been rewrote and the chapters that use the same style continue with chapter 13 and onward. So don't read if you can't take heavy grammar mistakes among other things.

If you read all that and still want to continue. Then go ahead.

Season 1 Facing Your Darkside

Chapter 7 of Raze's Journey

Raze opened his eyes and brought his hand to his head and wiped his forehead 'Oh man I feel like I got hit by a spaceship...' he thought as he picked himself up.

Raze looked around and saw orange clouds and artificial sunlight appeared to be everywhere and the world appeared to be pinkish 'Whoa where am I?' though he was thinking to himself and didn't expect an answer back he got one anyway and the voice was... female?

“You are on the verge of life and death playing the game of limbo is what your populace would call it am I right?” she asked him as Raze turned around and saw a pony this time it had wings and a horn with a white coat, rainbow colored mane, and to top it all off she had slight pink tinge to her coat.

Raze had an idea of what was about to happen “Are you the god here? Oh I get it I'm between death, so ill have to play some cruel game against you with no chance of winning at all and then with all the cruelness you can manage you'll kill me off and send me to some hellish dimension in the middle of no space! Right?” he finished as he leaned in inquisitively to see if he had gotten that right.

The being leaned back a bit with wide eyes before she giggled “Well you certainly are an interesting person aren't you Raze?” she then laughed at his explanation for the events happening to him as she held her ribs.

Raze knew when he was being made fun of and decided to give her a rebuke “HEY! I'm just a bit confused and I don't even know who you are! and how do you know me?” he asked because he was confused about her mentioning him 'I never told her my name...' he thought to himself.

She then giggled a bit before finally controlling herself “Oh yes, how rude of me, my name is Celestia and I'm the princess of the sun in Equestria” she said as she spread her wings out in a grand way to exude her power as sunbeams reflected off her coat creating a huge glowing effect all around her.

Raze looked at her with wide eyes “Amazing...” his voice trailed off before the sight that stood before him the power Celestia emanated was breathtaking.

“But that's enough about me, what about you Raze?” she asked even though she knew more than enough at this point she had never intended to visit Ponyville and so she would take this time to know him.

“Well there isn't much to know, so ill just explain the basics.” he cleared his breath and began the all to familiar explanation about what he was, where he came from, and of course his past few days in Ponyville while Celestia nodded and shot surprising looks at some of his feats.

“And that's pretty much what's been going on for the past few days.” he finished as he looked in Celestia's direction. Raze was surprised when he saw a scroll and pin floating in her magical embrace as she had written down every detail of his story.

Celestia then made the scroll disappear and smiled, “This shall make a nice biography.” Before Raze could question why she wanted to make a biography her face had changed to the serious expression she had one other time, “Now we need to find a way for you to get back before you die.” she said with urgency.

Raze could only nod as he followed her they stepped along the path on what appeared to be a snake “So, where does this lead?” he asked Celestia.

Before she could say anything she was interrupted by a laugh that appeared to be jovial at their expense “Why bother asking her questions when I'm the one that knows you just as well as you do?” after the words Discord popped in and held in his tiger paw a cup of chocolate milk which he took a sip of and then snapped it away.

“What do you want, Discord?!” asked a now angry Celestia as she prepared to fight while Discord rolled his eyes.

“Now now, Celestia we wouldn't want you to burst a gasket.” he said in an over dramatic tone while he fainted in a very over the top manner.

“What's a “gasket” supposed to be?” she asked in heavy annoyance.

Discord appeared from her side and put his lion paw over her shoulder “Oh, it's nothing Celestia. I wouldn't want you to lose your head thinking of something that doesn't exist in the land of harmony.” he said with a high amount of sarcasm laced in his voice.

Celestia shook him off and fired a magical flame at him that appeared to have swallowed him in a wreath of blue heat. The flames licked at his body and the clouds nearest perspired to nothingness almost instantly, but Discord snapped his finger and the fire disappeared.

Discord yawned “Celestia if that's your best then you should give up on harming me!” he then guffawed before snapping his fingers again. This time instead making things disappear he made cotton candy appear and forced the clouds to become attracted to Celestia as if like a magnet the clouds covered her like water and stuck to every part of her much to her distaste.

Discord laughed at her “Bahahahaha! you should see yourself now!” he then snapped his fingers and a mirror appeared which he floated over to Celestia who was to busy struggling with the cotton candy to notice the mirror.

Celestia began to become far more angry than she could stand, "Discord! Release me from this cloud at once!” she roared as the cotton candy got stuck everywhere.

Raze was still standing on the pathway to wherever it was they were going before Discord had shown up and he looked very confused “Hello?”

The response he got was a guffawing spirit and an angry, “WHAT?!” from the princess which made him shrink from her sight.

Celestia finally decided to blast the cotton candy away with her magical ability, 'Why didn't I do that earlier?' she thought to herself when she remembered that she couldn't think to herself here.

Discord answered her thought that spoke aloud from her mind, “Because you rarely think, Celestia!” she shot him an angry look and prepared to charge enough energy to turn anyone into dust before Raze absconded her vision.

“Can you please fight some other time I'm kinda gonna die soon.” he said half questioning and half urgent.

Celestia nodded and dispelled her magic and then teleported to them to the beginning of the snake like path which was the direction they had been heading in before Discord had interrupted them and she still wondered, 'Why didn't I do this in the first place?'

Raze answered her this time, “Who cares?! We need to figure out what's going on here!” he was now getting impatient after all this was taking to much time.

Celestia coughed a little and blushed, “Yes, Raze. Let's continue from here.” and with that he followed her.

~In the Hospital~

Twilight trotted in circles outside the emergency room Raze and Fluttershy had been rushed into. She was having an internal battle right now, 'This isn't good... We shouldn’t have let them leave if they’d stayed in Ponyville none of this would've happened!!' she thought to herself as she continued her agitated pacing. She was unaware of the gray missile flying her way when it crashed into her sending them skidding across the floor and into the wall labeling the end of the hallway where they slid down the side of it slowly.

“Hi Twilight we came as fast as we could when we heard the news!!” Derpy said as she picked herself up while her eyes whirled comically.

“Yes, but I think you may have been a bit to worried Derpy” said The Doctor who was chuckling lightly at the crash scene in front of him.

Twilight picked herself up and summoned a duster with her magic, which she then used to dust herself off. She put it back and then said “Thanks for coming you two are the closest to Raze not counting the girls and I, so it will hopefully work out” she finished in her “everything is completely fine” voice.

“Well speaking of the girls where are they?” The Doctor asked Twilight who then pointed down the hall with her hoof to door marked Cafeteria The Doctor then added “Well that makes sense” he then turned to Derpy whom had disappeared leaving an outline where she had been. He turned back towards the doors of the cafeteria where the doors appeared to be flying open.

In seconds a scream came from the staff “SHE'S BACK AND SHES TAKING THE MUFFINS!!!!”

Suddenly you could hear several bangs followed by “YOU CAN'T HAVE MY MUFFINS!” followed by more smashing sounds and then terrified ponies who galloped down the hallway past Twilight and The Doctor screaming “THE HORROR!!!!!” as they disappeared into various rooms.

Twilight and The doctor then both said “We probably should go get her” then they looked confused for a second before nodding and going towards the door not knowing what lie on the other side.

~In the subconscious of Raze~

“So you're telling me that I cannot possibly get back to life unless I face my darkest self, but how is that stopping me?” Raze asked the big red troll in front of them that can mumbling something about mahogany.
“It's as simple as that Raze you must fight your inner evil and in order for you to do that you must find it first, but that shouldn't be to hard after that the plot device will free you from your comatose state and you will heal from the poison” the troll said as he quickly added “My names King Yemma and my desk is made of mahogany” his words went to a sort of whisper at the end of his sentence.

Raze opened his mouth to say something “Wel-” he was interrupted by King Yemma who said “Mahogany” in a tone that sounded quite creepy if you ask me.

Before Raze could say anything else Celestia teleported herself and Raze out of there to the front of the building. Raze was about to question why she did that when a clicking noise was heard as Discord popped into existence in all his chaotic power.

“Well hello again Celestia it's been a long 15 minutes now and I'm sure you've cooled of-” he was interrupted by a flash of the same magical flame she had used last time only this time it seemed much more powerful and contained the spirit in a magical field where he was helpless.

“Yes Discord it has been 15 minutes or longer, but this time you're the only one who's going to be burning with rage” Celestia said in a somewhat unimpressive manner.

Discord groaned “Is that the best you've got Celestia? Anti-magic flames? Raze would you help me out of here it's not as if I harmed someone” he said to Raze while Celestia looked angrily at him.

Raze looked at Discord who smiled. He looked over at Celestia who looked ticked at this point. He then looked back Discord whom had puppy dog eyes he then looked at Celestia who was now staring angrily at him.

Raze finally decided to say something “Okay Discord I'll get you out of that” he then proceeded to move towards the anti-magic flames, but Celestia had teleported in front of him blocking his path.

“Don't you dare free him!! Discord deserves nothing but scorn for what he has done to my little ponies and Equestria!!” she exclaimed with the fury of the sun itself and it was directed towards Raze this time though even at her scathing words he wouldn't back down.

“What did he do?” Raze asked Celestia as he made sure to keep himself as calm as possible in this bothersome situation.

Discord could be heard from behind the anti-magic flames saying in as sarcastic a way he could manage “Here we go again she reopens these wounds so much gag” he pointed to his throat emphasis on the gag reflex itself.

Celestia though had stopped paying attention to him by now and was focused on Raze “He enslaved my ponies and played with them as if they were puppets and even spread chaos to the borders of our land” she sighed and then added “Discord was the scourge of our beautiful land of Equestria and even now he likes to cause what little chaos he can from his stone imprisonment that is why he deserves none of your concern or help” she finished with justified anger or at least she thought it was justified.

Raze was now thinking of what she said and nodded before turning to Discord and asking him “What about you? Did you think of it as torture or is it just natural to you?” he finished while for an answer.

Discord at first had decided not to answer, but seeing as the odds were against him he decided to go ahead and answer Raze anyway “It's normal for me to spread chaos and play with the minds of others after all I'm Discord the spirit of disharmony. What more could you expect from me Celestia?” this time directing his question to Celestia who looked away with a huff.

Raze then decided to ask something of both the beings before him “Can you put aside your differences and work together for the time being then fight whenever you want okay?”

Celestia thought to herself 'Fine I guess I shall agree, but only because the situation is dire' before she could nod her head Raze said “That's great Celestia!!” when he said that she realized all her thoughts could be heard still and Discord said “Yes our thoughts can be heard so no hiding things after all were friends now” he finished in a slightly aloof way.

Celestia complied and released her anti-magic flame shield and then watched as Discord stretched “It's nice to be free of the tiny fire house and now we can get down to what you're here for Raze so what did you need?” he asked Raze in earnest.

Raze explained the situation of trying to find his dark self and fight it so he could return to the waking world and Discord listened intently with a few nods and mumbling about how cliche it sounded and that he's heard of it before and before you knew it the explanation was over.

Discord grinned “I can help you easily with finding your dark side, but I cannot help you fight it he may be as strong as you are on your own” he warned Raze as prepared to summon his energy to make the wish of Raze's come true.

Raze waited for something to happen as orange energy began to flow around him in large circles turning into a twister of sorts.

Celestia watched in awe as the aura around Raze began to burn like black fire and saw it separating from the body of Raze she wondered what was about to happen as she began to document it with her magic.

Raze felt as if he had been torn in half in life the pain was unbearable as he let out a yell of agony “AAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!” as the blackness was being ripped from his body. He collapsed down onto Snake Way as his body felt like each of the ligaments were being twisted and pulled apart form the darkness inside of himself.

Celestia had stopped documenting and tried to go help Raze before being blown away by the amount of magic Discord was using to separate the entity from Raze's body. She could only hear the pained yelling that came from the vortex that was starting to slow down as Discord's energy began to drop.

Celestia got closer to Raze “Are you alright Raze?” she asked him as he began to move picking himself up and getting his surroundings together. His body ached everywhere and yet he began to walk past Celestia before collapsing again.

Discord flew down and said “Don't move yet your body needs to readjust even if were in your subconscious and you Celestia need to wait till the spells are complete honestly are you trying to get killed or something?” he finished with a glare her direction.

Celestia glared back at him “Well the most important thing right now is Raze, so don't tell me I did something wrong by being concerned!!” she rebuked him which made Discord laugh.

Before she could fire a spell his direction Raze interrupted her by putting a hand on her back “Can you two please argue later?” he asked weakly.

Celestia gave her full attention to Raze “Are you alright?” she asked him in a motherly tone. Raze responded to her “I'll be just fi-” he coughed a bit before losing his hold on her back and falling to his knees.

“Wow I've never felt so weak before in my life” Raze said slightly to himself, but of course Discord and Celestia heard him.

Celestia was about to say something when a new voice rung outwards “Well Raze feeling weak? That's not how I remember you”

Raze's eyes widened at the sound of the voice “No....” Raze slowly turned to where the darkness had formed into a new person Raze looked at the shape of his godfather “But you died... Why are you here?”

His godfather smiled “Because you needed me after all I'm the darkness inside you” he cleared his throat before going on “I'm the reason you keep looking back and hating yourself, you continue to feed more of your hate and anger causing me to grow stronger”

Raze finally felt like he could stand and picked himself up and began to walk towards his godfather. Raze outstretched his arms hoping to hug his godfather for all the time he had lost, but just as time was lost so was his own mind.

His godfather had instead adopted a look of pure hatred and smashed his fist into Raze's face sending him across the clouds which turned themselves into a fighting ring which Raze's body crashed into breaking most of the arena up as his body finally came to a stop in a crater like hole at the end. Raze laid there completely dazed and knocked from the hit.

His godfather flew down to the ring and stopped in the middle of said ring. He then began to change form into a differently colored version of Raze with white hair, gray skin, and a huge black aura.

The newly formed darker Raze then said “You may refer to me as Fhaze in your last moments before I take over your body and kill all of your new friends” Fhaze said with a smirk he then turned to Celestia “How would you like to be the first to die fair princess” he spat the last two words out with a deep malice behind them.

He then walked towards them. Before Celestia could react Discord pushed her out of the way of Fhaze's attack as a huge black energy sphere pulsed past her and hit Discord. Discord had performed a counter shield and sent the black sphere back at Fhaze before he could react the sphere swallowed him whole in an explosion that sent broken pieces of the tiled floors of the arena in all directions.

Discord looked down at the smoke covered arena trying to sense the presence of darkness, but he couldn't find Fhaze. “Hey why don't you look up here fool?!” Discord turned around and caught a leg in his eagle claws and then threw Fhaze into the arena following up with a round of magical lightning that struck Fhaze and exploded into cotton candy. Discord laughed at his handy work “Bwahahahahah You aren't that strong for someone who should be all powerful!! This is priceless, just priceless” he openly mocked the dark entity whom had freed himself from the cotton candy.

“YOU DARE MOCK ME?! I WILL SHOW YOU MY POWER!!!” Fhaze yelled at the being before he began to release his true strength in the form of what he calls Nocturne Saiyajin. As his aura began to flare further outward it crackled with black sparks as his power level rose to much more incredible heights with a final yell he attained the full transformation “RAAAAAGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!”

Discord noticed the difference immediately “Celestia get out of here or we'll both die!!” he yelled to her immediately not really caring if he was hurt at this point.

Before Discord could even think Fhaze showed up from out of nowhere “Miss me?” he asked the spirit of disharmony whom teleported before a kick could hit his body.

Fhaze looked around and yelled to wherever the spirit had disappeared to “You can't escape me in here this is my mind and I can take away your powers!!!” he then began to make sure that the powers of teleportation were taken away and discord appeared on the arena floor a few feet from where Raze was.

Fhaze yelled tauntingly at the dumbfounded spirit below him “HA!!! WITHOUT TELEPORATATION YOUR FUTURE IS CANCELED!!!!!” he then flew towards Discord.

Discord snapped his fingers and cotton candy clouds appeared and began to envelop Fhaze's body “WHAT TRICKERY IS THIS?!” he yelled questioningly as the cotton candy completely took form over his body.

Discord smirked “This is where even you cannot escape and now for the main event!!” Discord exclaimed as his fingers snapped once more and Fhaze fell to the ground hard.

Fhaze then began yelling incoherent phrases of how he was going to murder Discord and rip all his bones out and build a stack of.... Well that kind of stuff.

Discord stopped paying attention to Fhaze and floated to Raze. Discord began to summon his golden magic and then snapped his fingers when the spell had charged enough to unleashed a torrential power surge that instantly woke up Raze and refueled his energy.

Raze immediately woke from his unconscious state at full strength “Wow my energy's returned to normal” he then noticed Discord looking a bit winded “Thanks Discord you really do come through!!” he exclaimed to the weakened spirit.

Discord laughed, but it ended in a series of coughs “D-d-don't worry ab-b-bout it just beat Fhaze my cotton weights won't hold him much longer” Discord finished as he flew away to let Raze take over the fight.

Raze looked over to where he saw an almost exact copy of himself “Woah you must be Fhaze”

Fhaze had broken free of his prison of extremely heavy hardened cotton candy and then glared at Raze “Must have taken a few minutes for you to figure that out!!” he exclaimed in anger.

Fhaze then regained his composure “No matter.... It doesn't matter if you are awake or not you can't stop me” Fhaze then began to grin and his black aura flared up “Come on lets finish this if I win you will lose all the control you have left of this body and die while my soul will strengthen this body and let this poison pass harmlessly”

Raze smirked “What if I win?” he asked with a confident gleam in his eyes.

Fhaze put an arm straight out and outstretched his pointer finger “Ah ah ah.... Those dreams are to sweet for such low lifeforms such as yourself”

Raze then put on his serious face “Well then how about we stop talking and get... this.... done.....” he began to concentrate on raising his energy.

Discord clicked his fingers and using his magic made sure nobody could the others thoughts anymore he then began to use telepathy to speak to Raze 'Raze you need to go Super Saiyan to stand a chance'

Raze responded to Discord 'But I don't think I can activate it again' he said Discord through the link.

Discord whom remembered watching the training between Goku and Gohan thought of something 'Just get angry use the pain of loss or whatever Goku had been talking about at the time'

Raze had powered up to Kaioken x10 without announcing it to hopefully surprise Fhaze as he charged forth to attack.

Fhaze responded by dodging Raze's attack and surprising him by grabbing Raze's right leg and then throwing him to the ground where he began to try to stomp the life out of him only for Raze to dissappear thanks to the afterimage technique.

Fhaze smiled and turned around to punch Raze only for his fist to go through another afterimage Fhaze thought quickly 'His next appearance should be right here!!' he thought as his foot through yet another afterimage.

Raze smashed into his opponents right side and threw a ki wave which Fhaze knocked away and then countered by throwing his own ki wave which Raze failed to send away and it ended up exploding knocking him away while Fhaze appeared behind him kicked his side knocking him back in the direction of the ki explosion.

Fhaze then flew ahead punching Raze in the stomach sending him into the air and then flew ahead of him to deliver a final strike, but Raze managed to catch himself and used afterimage to get out of Fhaze's striking range before flying down and touching the arena floor.

Raze looked up as Fhaze descended towards the arena floor.

Fhaze smirked “You're not bad for being me”

Raze smiled widely showing off white teeth for all to see “Heheh I try” he then adopted his serious face once more readying himself for the next round.

~Discord is joined by Celestia~

Celestia sighed as she watched the spectacle “That Raze is surely something is he not Discord?” she asked him sincerely.

Discord nodded “Saiyan's are quite an interesting bunch of individuals I have watched them for the last thousand years and I've never been more interested in them than when Raze was transported here”

Celestia looked at Discord “Actually I believe he is here for something far greater than we may realize” she said almost cryptically causing Discord to raise an eyebrow.

Discord had to ask her he was to curious now “Did you bring him here by any chance?” he asked her, but she didn't give him an answer the only thing she did say was.

“They have started to fight for real and Raze is about to outclassed severely” Celestia said with a slight amount of worry in her voice.

Discord once again began to communicate with Raze via telepathy 'Raze you're about to be outclassed and if you can't use the Super Saiyan then you need to come up with something else and fast!!!'

~Raze and Fhaze's Fight~

Raze was was just dodging hits by the skin of his teeth when Discords voice had popped up in his head causing him to lose focus and getting caught by a nice right hook from Fhaze who then followed up with a kick that sent Raze's body flying across the arena floor.

Raze thought quickly through the link 'NO TIME DISCORD!! HES GAINING THE UPPERHAND AND IT MAY BE OVER ALREADY!!!!' as he barely dodged another hit from Fhaze who then laughed insanely.

“YOU MAY WANT TO FOCUS BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T YOUR ENTRAILS ARE GOING ALL OVER THIS ARENA!!!!” he yelled in madness as his attacks continued to get faster and Raze only got fatigue for all his efforts so far.

'Dammit he won't stop and I don't have time to make a plan of action!!' Fhaze had begun to swing wildly and was becoming harder and harder to predict. Soon it became clear to Raze if he slipped up it would all be over.

~Back to Celestia and Discord~

Discord was hard at work trying to come up with a plan while Celestia just watched as Raze fought a hopeless fight with no way to win unless he transformed into a super saiyan. Discord says that will even the odds and the possibilities would be up to him from there, but as Raze grew weaker she could see only death and destruction for Equestria should Fhaze ever escape.

Discord smiled widely “I have quite the idea now!!” Celestia looked at him in confusion, but he ignored her stare to communicate with Raze 'Raze if were in your mind then why not use that against him?'

~Raze and Fhaze's Fight~

Raze smiled as he rushed away from Fhaze's onslaught 'Discord that's genius!! So what do I do?' he asked as he kept his mind half and half ready on the outside and inside.

Discord went through a list of things that may change the fight to Raze's favor while Raze dodged the brunt of Fhaze's attacks and with each new thought that Discord gave him he smiled bigger and bigger.

'Alright Discord I'm ready to try this out!!' Raze flew back away from Fhaze who then got angry.

“YOU?! WHY DO YOU RUN!? YOU'RE DELAYING THE INEVITABLE!!!” Fhaze yelled as he blasted towards Raze who only smiled.

Raze could only think one thing 'Okay if this is my mind then I have a request... Slow down Fhaze' As soon as he opened his eyes the first thing he saw was a fist which he flew around and avoided. Fhaze looked at him with undisguised hatred and then moved to try and score a hit which was easily dodged by Raze.

'This is going to be so easy!!' Raze thought to himself as he dodged another fist.

Fhaze was going at full speed from his own perspective and yet Raze was avoiding all of his blows 'How is this weak fool getting arou-' he got cut off by a knee flying into his stomach followed by a series of jabs from Raze before being elbowed toward the arena floor.

Fhaze stopped himself mid flight and looked up at a smiling Raze who waved and seemed to be challenging his own superiority “YOU CAN'T CHALLENGE ME!!” Fhaze roared as his aura burst outward in a dark flame and held his hands in the air.

Raze watched Fhaze from above and then began to charge downward towards Fhaze.

Fhaze smirked and unleashed a multiple energy blasts upward at Raze who realized to late what was happening and got swallowed by the blasts in a huge explosion that shook the arena floor.

“Lets see you make it out of that” Fhaze said mockingly as he laughed to himself.

Raze had formed a barrier out of ki energy to protect himself at the last second 'Whew that was a close one' he thought as he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

~Meanwhile with Discord and Celestia~

Discord was quite angry at Raze this second 'YOU IDIOT!!! Do you have any idea how close that was?! I could practically feel it from over here!!'

Raze's response was 'Hey at least I'm still capable to fight if I had been any later death wouldn't be my only problem!!'

Discord slapped a hand over his face 'Whatever just keep managing this lucky streak and we may make it out of here'

Raze then asked 'Do you have anymore suggestions?'

Discord was about to say something sarcastic when Celestia entered the conversation in their minds 'The smoke is about to clear Raze get ready and pay attention please' she said as her prediction came true to reveal that Raze was indeed still alive (Not that they didn't know that already) and he was raring to go.

~Raze and Fhaze's Conflict of interest~

Fhaze on the other hand wasn't quite prepared for the fact of Raze surviving that 'How can this cockroach be alive after all I'm a Super Nocturne Saiyan he is only using Kaioken!!! He must be using something to his advantage, but what could it be?!'

Raze had touched down on the arena floor at least 20 feet away from Fhaze and began o think of what else he could use his mind for 'Maybe I could make myself faster and stronger than him somehow alright lets try it!! Mind I command you to make me faster and stronger!!' he then charged forward and began to fight in close combat with Fhaze.

Fhaze was making each blow meet his own and they clashed before Fhaze managed to hit Raze who hacked up some blood from the hit and then was bombarded with more attacks from Fhaze. Each hit scored their targets making Raze reel backwards in pain as he struggled to keep himself up on two feet.

Fhaze wasn't going to waste the opportunity and started to knock Raze around smashing fist after fist and kick after kick before finally using a ki blast to knock Raze away.

Raze hit the ground... hard as the arena itself came apart from the force of the impact. Raze coughed a bit and began to pick himself up again while thinking 'Mind just slow him down a bit' that was all he would need to think because of course Fhaze slowed down just like before.

Fhaze's fist hit Raze or at least he thought it had before Raze had disappeared 'Is he using afterimage or something? My fist was dead on and he should be in agony at this moment!!'

Raze had changed the landscape with his mind and his power level and covered himself in clouds while he tried to come up with a plan 'How can I beat him when he still has more power than me?'

Fhaze on the other hand saw the change in environment and realized 'He must have figured out the ability to control his mind!! That's the only way he could beat me!!' Fhaze then smiled 'I'll finish this quickly with this new knowledge!!'

~Discord and Celestia~

Celestia looked down at Fhaze who was now grinning wildly she then turned to Discord and said “I don't like the way he is looking”

Discord nodded “Well we definitely shouldn't like this because he has figured out what Raze is doing and is now ready to finish this fight completely”

Celestia's face turned to a much more worried expression “We need to warn Raze of this new change in events”

Discord gave her look as if to say “I'm already on it” he then focused on the link connecting he and Celestia to Raze 'Raze can you hear me?' he asked while waiting for a response.

Raze responded 'Yeah and I have new plan on how to use my new advantage!!'

Discord laughed through the telepathic link 'Nope.avi!! Time to change plans Raze he knows and that's no good!!' (Ha two references in one Discord thought!!! SUCCESS!!!)

Raze couldn't believe it 'Ummmmm... Discord please be playing a joke....'

Discord was interrupted by Celestia 'This is no joke Raze you have to get a new plan Fhaze is about to go insane or at least he looks like it'

Raze couldn't believe it still 'Well were doomed I don't have enough power to face him and without my advantage you may as well get our tombstones ready'

Discord already had some stones from the arena floor 'I've put our names on these will they be enough?'

Celestia gave him an angry glare and Discord sweat dropped “What? I thought it was appropriate!!” Celestia facehoofed and then turned to look down at Fhaze who was charging up energy.

Celestia sent a warning to Raze 'LOOK OUT!!'

~Raze and Fhaze's Conflict of Interest~

Fhaze charged up his energy and blasted it into the sky and it spread out among the clouds dispersing them all only one of the beam hit Raze and he fell out of the sky before hitting the ground “Owww that hurt a lot” Raze said as he tried to pick himself up before being kicked away by Fhaze who kept walking forward.

Raze looked up at Fhaze before Fhaze's boot connected with Raze's own face knocking him back again blood seeped out of a head wound thanks to the metallic surface of the boot Raze's vision was obscured by the blood trailing down his face.

Fhaze laughed before walking over again and harshly kicking him in the stomach with metallic piece of his boot again. Raze landed on his side while screaming in agony “AUGH!!”. He looked over at Fhaze who looked as if he had enough of this pointless torture.

“I appreciate you unleashing me from your mind Raze, but this is where your end is I see no point in dragging this out any further and I'm sure you can't stand much more yourself” Fhaze watched as Raze picked himself up and Fhaze cleared his breath before continuing “Once you die it will appear that you have died in real life, but then I will take over and kill everyone of your new friends”

Raze bared his teeth in anger, but he knew that without the power of the Super Saiyan he had nothing to do and no way to keep up he could only listen to Fhaze as he prepared for the inevitable.

Fhaze then smiled wickedly “I know of the perfect way to finish you off and what better way than to use your hero's greatest move the Kamehameha Wave!!” Fhaze then added “Enjoy your last moments this death will be the least painful way to go”

~In the Hospital~

Twilight and the rest of the gang (Derpy and The Doctor included) rushed to the observatory where Raze was being healed.

The Doctor saw that Raze was struggling on the table his teeth were bared and his face was that of true anger 'What has gone wrong in his mind?' he wondered before another doctor or more specifically Nurse Redheart had shown up in the observatory.

Nurse Redheart began to explain to them the complications and why Raze had not left the room “He appears to be in stress and if this continues he could end up dying, but there's even more perplexing issues than there should be...” she took a breath before continuing “He seems to be getting injuries while he is fidgeting around on the table and what's even worse is there is internal damage happening that make absolutely no sense!!”

Derpy's eyes rolled in different directions while she pressed her face against the glass that looked down upon the operation table. She then turned around and asked Nurse Redheart “Is Raze going to die then?” she asked the nurse who turned away. Upon not getting an answer Derpy began to shed tears while The Doctor made his way over and comforted her.

Twilight, however had an idea “What if we went into his mind?” she asked the rest of her friends whom all looked astonished at the idea.

Pinkie Pie agreed with Twilight “Yeah Twilight knows all kinds of magicky stuff and shes super smart we could definitely get in Razey's mind and stop whatever or whoever is hurting him!!!”

Applejack nodded as well “Yeah we could buck the tar outta whatever is in there”

Rainbow Dash agreed also “Yeah I agree with Applejack it's time to kick some flank!!!”

Rarity hadn't said anything, so they stared at her Rarity looked from each of their faces and then whimpered “But ill get dirty...” One by one her friends shook their heads at her and then she gave in “I guess we can go knock whatever is in Raze's head” Her friends perked up after that and they all decided to give it a go, but they were stopped by The Doctor.

He looked at them and said “No! Absolutely not happening today if at all ever” Twilight was about to say something when The Doctor gave her look of “That's not going to work”. Twilight turned her head sheepishly.

The Doctor then looked at the glass and back to them “He must go through this himself I have had this happen to me many times over fighting dark sides among nagging doubts and other things” he cleared his throat and spoke again “If he is to escape with his mind intact he has to fight this evil on his own otherwise he will cease to be the Raze you all know and the Raze I know”

Twilight and the others stepped back towards the glass all with hopes of Raze winning whatever it was he was supposed to win if he won at all....

~Raze and Fhaze's Conflict of Interest~

Fhaze smiled as he cupped his hands together “KA!!” he then began to add “ME!!!” he pulled his arms back and kept his hands cupped “HA!!!” he then strung the second to last word “ME!!!!” and then he kept charging hoping something would happen in the next few moments.

Raze heard something beating was it his heart? No it sounded like... Wings? He looked to his right and Celestia flying as fast as she could possibly muster Raze shouted at her “GO AWAY!!!! HES USING THE KAMEHAMEHA WAVE!!!!”

Celestia couldn't make out the words he had yelled and that's when Fhaze turned his attention to her 'That stupid bitch thinks she's going to be a hero huh?? Well there are no heroes left here, so she dies first!!'

Celestia had stopped frozen in midair something had stopped her she looked over to Fhaze to see him smiling at her as he decided fire the wave “HAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!” as he turned his out stretched hands into her direction.

Raze somehow found the strength to fly as he got in front of her freeing her from Fhaze's mind and allowing her to fly away the only thing Raze could was say and think “IT'S NOW OR NEVER”

Everything was going slow motion as Fhaze's wave powered towards him Raze quickly found his stance and said the words altogether at once “KAMEHAME!!!!” he had pulled his hands back and then pushed them forward “HAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!” as his own wave shot forward smashing into Fhaze's attack.

Discord stared down at the sight and quickly sent a message to Raze 'Now Raze transform use the pain of loss!!!'

Raze was losing the beam struggle and was being pushed to the breaking point when all of a sudden the memory of his Godfather passed through his mind and he looked around to see him floating next to him.

His Godfather looked disappointed “So this is how you're going down? What did I die for?” when Raze didn't answer him he smirked “For nothing that's what and your just giving up I should've never fulfilled my destiny”

Raze felt himself gathering energy and then his Godfather looked him up and down “You are gaining strength from your anger use it like a weapon show Fhaze what you're made of or you will die!!”

Raze glared at his Godfather “NO!!! I WON'T LOSE!!! NOT NOW!!! NOT EVER!!!!” Raze's hair flashed up and he felt his power surging to the surface as his aura exploded into a golden flame and a golden colored explosion of light filled the air “I AM A SUPER SAIYAN!!!!!!!!” he roared as his power burst open and his Kamehameha wave pushed forward against Fhaze's attack.

Fhaze who was now struggling to gain control of the situation was the one losing “NO!!! YOU CAN'T DO THIS!!!! I'M THE ONLY ONE CAPABLE OF SUCH POWER!!!!!! YOU ARE A WEAK DESPENSABLE FOOL!!!!” despite his taunts and his rage he found his power to be failing him as his wave was completely over come by the Super Saiyan's own and he was swallowed by the attack “NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!” Fhaze yelled as he was rejoined into Raze's own conscious which was now at peace by the change in events.

Raze powered down and fell to the arena floor which turned into clouds soft as fluffy feathered pillows he began to laugh weakly at his triumph and was joined by Discord and Celestia as they too fell onto the clouds and rolled on top of them.

After they stopped their rolling they looked up as a gate appeared Celestia was the first to talk “It looks as if your mind is at peace”

Raze disagreed with her instantly “I don't think I'll ever be at peace after all my Godfather is not completely off my conscience, but I do feel better than when I arrived oh and I guess I'll see you then Celestia” he said as she nodded and began to glow till she had disappeared.

Discord was the only one left on the clouds around Raze so he decided to ask him “So Discord have you known Celestia a while??”

Discord shrugged “Sure have and now it's time for you to go back to the real world or at least as real as Equestria can get” he gagged at the thought because he had been truly happy to have seen a chaotic battle it was just like when Goku had fought Broly well almost anyway...

Raze disappeared and so did Discord leaving the world of Raze's mind to it's peaceful self.

~In the Hospital~

Raze opened his eyes and saw a bunch of masked ponies around him at once he jumped into the air “WOAH!!!! Is this one of those creepy doctor circles were they rip apart new species and stuff on a table?!” he asked in a fit of paranoia.

The doctors took their masks off “This was a beautiful success we have healed him and he has grown a tail!!!”

Raze was confused 'A tail? What do they mean by tha- OH MY GOD!! WHAT IS THIS I DON'T EVEN' was all he got out as a tail was moving around sticking out from behind his hospital covering.

While Raze was confused by the fact that he had a tail he didn't notice the doors flying open and a Derpy missile flying towards him “RAZEY!!!!” she yelled in happiness as she crashed into him followed by the Mane Five (Fluttershy was in a different room at the time) which made him the bottom of the dog pile or should he dare think pony pile.

Derpy looked at him with watering mismatched eyes “I MISSED YOU RAZEY!!!”

Raze smiled “I missed all of you equally!!” he didn't catch Twilight's look of disappointment because as it had appeared it had disappeared.

Before the Mane Five or Derpy and The Doctor could say anything Raze stopped them “Okay I know we all missed each other, but can we please check on Fluttershy first after all it was my fault she got hurt in the first place” he finished as he walked out the doors quickly followed by the Mane Five with Derpy and The Doctor (I need to come up with a nickname for Derpy and The Doctor please help me with that!!! :D)

Season 1 Rocks Can Hurt You if Nothing Else Can

Raze's Journey Chapter 8

Two days have passed since Raze had fought his evil counterpart, Fhaze. Two days of pain, sweat, blood, and near death training. Fluttershy had healed up thanks to unicorn magic though they told her to stay off the leg just in case something might happen. Twilight and the rest of her friends had visited Fluttershy in attempts to help her and Fluttershy accepted most of there help with quiet yet friendly “Thank you's”

Derpy and The Doctor had disappeared mysteriously both saying something about saving worlds or some other third thing. Pyrus just slept for those days uncaring of each party. Spike was now looking forward to the fact of Raze having to stay in Ponyville. He had been so caught up in preparation he hadn't noticed the nervous pacing of Twilight whom seemed quite worried about something.

“Twilight is something wrong?” he asked her, but she didn't turn to him in fact she may not have heard him at all.

Spike decided to get more direct and so he did what any sensible young dragon would do. He charged Twilight and jumped on her back pushing her into the ground. Spike then got off her and went around to look in her face “Twilight there has to be something wrong, can you tell me?” he asked her.

Twilight finally had her attention on Spike and though his attack had surprised her, it had not hurt her in anyway, so she answered him “Nopony has heard from Raze in the past two days and he hasn't been outside according to Rainbow Dash!!” she finished in a worried tone.

Spike looked at her with his hands on his hips and asked “Why would Rainbow Dash know that he hasn't been outside in the past two days?”

Twilight responded with “Rainbow Dash volunteered to spy on him, so we could see whether he is peaceful or not” Spike looked at her with a piercing glare which made her cave in “Though now that I think about it we probably should have known by now that he isn't a threat to our well being”

Spike sighed and said “You should know you can trust him because from what I hear Raze is quite the friendly creature”

Twilight nodded and said “You're absolutely right Spike!!! Ill go get Rainbow Dash and tell her to stop spying on him!!” she turned and began to run her way out of the library.

After Twilight's clopping hooves sounds were distant Spike looked around the library and realized something “Time for some ice cream” he then laughed evilly “Muahahahahaha!!!!” as he adorned a hat, cape, and fake mustache whilst heading for the kitchen.

~Rainbow Dash in her Spy Cloud...~

Rainbow Dash looked down from her cloud which was the only cloud in the sky at the moment. She was watching a lone object on the only mountain closest to Ponyville and this object just so happened to be a space ship. She knew what was inside, but she was confused as to why he hadn't come out.

'What's he doing in there?' she asked herself she then thought 'Why haven't I gone down there and looked in on him yet?'

Rainbow pulled her head out of the only cloud in the sky and then began to do some test flaps with her wings. When she decided they were ready she began to flap them in unison and in perfect coordination and then flew beside her cloud and bucked into nonexistence. She then made her way to the space ship and looked in through a window.

~Raze's Training~

Raze's fists flew through the air punching an invisible target that nobody or pony could see. With each fist that flew sweat seemed to fly off the skin of each arm. Raze himself looked far to entranced with the target and was visibly angry looking.

In Raze's head thoughts were pouring like water out of a faucet 'I almost let them die!!! I couldn't do anything!!!! I got lucky and that's all it was....' he thought continuously. He kept going over how lucky he had gotten during the fight with Fhaze.

'If I hadn't transformed when I had than all would've been lost....' After another punch, the machines came out. Raze fired a ki wave at one of the machines which was bounced of that machine to the next one and then bounced back to Raze who canceled it with another ki wave which caused an explosion.

Raze flew away from the explosion and hit the side of the ship. He picked himself up and got back into his stance. Raze looked over at the gravity counter and it read out “460 g”. 'I am about to give out here and I'm only at 460 g?! I know I trained at a higher level before!!' his thoughts were cut off by the machines making their own energy to blast him with.

Raze knocked the blasts away and then they were caught by the machines again which then sent them back at Raze. Raze dodged one, but the other hit him sending him into the floor. He tried to get up, but he couldn't.

'I will try harder!!!' Raze then decided it was finally time to transform “RAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!” as his hair stood up. The yellow aura blasted outward seemingly covering the entire room with golden flames that fiercely burned around Raze.

His eyes were of greenish hue and his body was a wreath of power. He had learned how to transform easily and was able to do so almost immediately. 'I have to remember to only use this power for emergencies, but I may have some fun with it, after all it is something I'll have to train with....' he trailed off in his thoughts as he began to move around a lot easier thanks to his new found ability.

Raze decided to end his little bit of frolicking around as he transformed back into his normal state. Immediately he felt the changes and the gravity pressed down upon him. He began to continue his practice unaware of several presences outside his ship.

~Mane Five (No Fluttershy Due to Doctor's Note)~

Twilight Sparkle and her friends were gathered in a circle trying to figure a way to get Raze out of the ship Rainbow Dash was the first to speak “I think if we teamed up we could drag him out”

Normally Applejack would've agreed with the pegasus, but this time she couldn't “That's all well an dandy except for one thing, He's capable of bucking trees all the way to who knows where!!!”

Rainbow looked down and said “Oh yeah.... Anyone else have an idea?” she asked while looking around at the other four expectantly.

“Oooooo!!! Pick me!!! Pick me!!!!!” Pinkie said whilst jumping around Rainbow Dash.

Rainbow Dash shook her head at Pinkie “No... How about... RARITY!!!” she exclaimed to the white pony.

Rarity sighed and said “Maybe he'll come out if we give him a trip to the spa” she finished while giving a hopeful look in Rainbow's direction.

Rainbow Dash looked at her just like this (-_-) “Anyone else have a better idea?”

Applejack nodded and pulled out some apples from her satchel “What about these he can't resist em” she said to the others who then smiled and nodded.

Twilight smiled showing off her pearly whites “That's a great idea Applejack!! You can pretend to be delivering them and get him to come outside” she then pondered for a second and added “We'll hide in the cave over there and wait to see if it works”

The rest of the group and Twilight disappeared into the cave leaving Applejack behind to try her idea. Applejack began to climb up the bridge to the door which had been shut to prevent intruders from getting in. She raised her hoof and bashed it against the metal door several times.

Raze heard the clop sound of a hoof reverberating off his door. He turned off the gravity and began to walk his way to the door before finally opening it. He was greeted by Applejack whom was looking at Raze's torn clothes and sweating body 'Whoa nelly he must take physical fitness to the extreme!'

Raze sat down in a chair and looked over at her “So whats up?” he asked her.

“Oh nothin just deliverin some apples to ya and hoping you might wanna come outside?” she made the ending sound like a sort of pleading as she hoped he would get the memo.

Raze smiled at her “You have some apples!? Can I get one now?!” he asked her with a look of pure innocence.

Applejack laughed inwardly 'I got Im now!!' she then nodded and smiled “If you're willin to come outside Ill pass you one”

Raze thought for a second 'Hmmmm..... Apples and outside? Or training and being ready?' he continued to ponder which made AJ begin to perspire.

'Is he gonna say no?' she closed her eyes thinking they would have to go to plan B, but Raze interrupted her train of thought.

“I guess going outside wouldn't hurt” Raze said as he began to walk her towards the door 'Sorry Applejack, but I made a promise to myself and everypony else' he then thought 'I SAID EVERYPONY!!!??? Yep this is getting to me....'

Applejack had thought she had succeeded 'Ha and they thought it wouldn't work!!! Is there nothing apples can't do?' she continued thinking that when she heard the door slam behind her.

Applejack immediately went back and banged on the door “RAZE!!!! IT'S FER YER OWN GOOD!!!!! YOU HAVE TO COME OUTSIDE!!!!” she roared as her ranting went on deaf ears.

When Applejack realized that it would do no good she finally stopped and turned around only to find Twilight standing there.

Twilight smiled “Plan B?” she asked.

Applejack nodded “Plan B!!” she exclaimed and that's when Twilight's magic encased a good sized rock.

Twilight was thinking at the time 'Well we do anything for friendship and this is just another helping hoof in the right direction' and so Rainbow Dash with her knowledge of the ship found the door opening button on the side of it which opened the door.

Raze heard the door open, he looked in that direction and saw a piece of parchment in front of his door, so he walked over and picked it up and it read:

Dear Raze,

By the time you've read this you'll
notice that you're feeling lightheaded.
This is nor-

The letter cutoff as a rock hit his head. As everything began to get hazy Twilight and the others surrounded him.

The computer in the background noticed this and played this one part of a song it had enjoyed.

Mmmm whatcha say
Ooh that you only meant well?
Well of course you did
Mmmm whatcha say
Mmmm that it´s all for the best?
of course it is
Mmmm whatcha say
Ooh that you only meant well?
Well of course you did
Mmmm whatcha say
Whatcha say (whatcha say)
wha- wha- wha- wha- what did she say?

After hearing all of this Raze passed out and everything was black.

~The Walk To Ponyville Library~

Twilight and Rarity used their magic to carry Raze's unconscious body. As they made their way to Ponyville a conversation had taken hold of everyponies interest.

“So Twilight why are we taking him to yer library?” Applejack asked her.

Twilight responded to her with “For science” Applejack being the element of honesty detected something else to her words.

Applejack narrowed her eyes a little “Are you absolutely sure that's the only reason?” she asked her.

Twilight nodded “Of course why would I lie about this?” she asked Applejack who only snorted.

'I can't believe she won't tell me... I guess we'll find out something in the future, so ill leave it fer now' Applejack thought to herself as the walk continued.

After a 10 minute walk they finally reached Ponyville and then the Library in which Raze was set down on a couch in the main living room and was healed by Twilight as a way of saying “Sorry that I hit you with a rock hope this feels better now!!”

After the healing process Twilight looked in her friends direction to find that Spike had offered them all refreshments and that two of her friends were reading books. Those two were Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy with one having a Daring Do book and the other having a facts about different animals book they were both enthralled to say the least.

Twilight then heard a grunt and she turned to find that Raze was opening his eyes “Ohhhh man, What hit my head.....”

Twilight smiled awkwardly “That was me Raze”

Raze began to laugh a little “What did you hit me with though??” he asked as he was curious of what could possibly knock him out.

Twilight couldn't help but giggle at that “A rock!!!” she said in between states of giggles.

Raze started to laugh with her until they were loud guffaws of joyous laughter and soon even the rest of the group joined in until the library shook. They managed to catch themselves finally and Raze stated.

“That was one helluva rock!!” he said while rubbing his head.

The ponies gasped and Pinkie yelled at Raze “LANGUAGE MISTER!!!!” Raze was caught off guard and fell back onto the couch.

“Well I'm done for tonight... I guess ill just go back to the ship and-” he was caught off by Rainbow Dash whom had her own rebuttal.

“I don't think so!! We just dragged you here so you're staying for this entire week at this library!!! GOT IT!!!???” she exclaimed to him the last part making sure he got the message.

Raze nodded quickly and asked “Twilight what time is it?”

Twilight looked at the clock and said “Well sense it says 9:45 we should be getting to bed soon” she then paused and added “You can sleep on this couch tonight and then tomorrow we can get you a bed”
Raze started to shake his head “No that won't be necessary-” interrupted by Rarity whom said “Dear it's always necessary to have a nice bed!!! We don't take “no” for an answer!!” she finished before turning to Twilight.

“Hey Twi ill be heading back to sweet apple acres now” Applejack said to Twilight as she opened the door and made her way back home.

In the next few minutes more byes were heard and the room emptied until Twilight, Spike, and Raze were left alone. Spike yawned and said “If you need me ill be at the basket” and he disappeared upstairs leaving Twilight and Raze.

Twilight went upstairs and got a blanket and pillow for Raze then she made her way back down to hoof them over to Raze. Raze took them off her hooves and smiled “Thanks Twilight” even his tail wagged a bit in happiness or at least that's what he assumed it was.

Twilight went up the stairs and finally hit the sack. Raze also began to fall asleep after moving around and finally deciding to sleep on his stomach because his tail got in the way in any other position.

~The land of Raze's Dream~

“Wow it feels so light in here” Raze stated as he flew through the clouds of his dream scape. He began to think about things 'So I'm at Twilight's library and ill be here for a week....' he then smiled 'Maybe it won't be that bad after all ill be able to hang out with them all including Twilight, so everything should be fine' from there on he focused on flying.

Raze was blissfully unaware that he was being followed and soon this creature would make itself appear, quite literally. A snap of to eagle claws and he interrupted Razes flight by raising his power. Raze noticed immediately and stopped in midair.

Discord laughed a little “It's been two days Raze and you haven't been to sleep” he paused for effect and added “Now that you're finally asleep I can check on you, so what were you doing within that amount of time?” he asked Raze accusingly.

Raze shrugged and said “Training” Discord clicked his fingers and appeared from behind Raze's shoulder.

Discord then asked “Was it because of Fhaze?”

Raze nodded and put on his serious face “I wanna be ready for him or anyone who would threaten Equestria!!”

Discord then guffawed for no reason and pointed behind Raze “Looks like you've got a tail!!!” he then grabbed it which made Raze feel slightly weakened 'What's going on?!' Raze thought to himself.

Discord let it go and Raze felt better instantly he then asked Discord “What did you do?”

Discord shook a talon back and forth “Ah ah ah young saiyan I shall tell you why” he then made a psychiatric room appear complete with couch, chair, and lollipop plant.

Raze looked confused about the lollipop plant, but Discord saw this and said “It's very stressful listening to your problems and sugar is a great stress reliever!!!” and with that he took the lollipop.

Discord took down the lollipop with one bite and then popped up some chocolate milk and instead of drinking it threw it behind which made it explode “Now that I'm done with my explosive tendencies let's get to your problems Raze” he then looked at the couch and looked back at Raze “Get on the couch” he said to Raze who then complied with the demand.

Discord then snapped up his clipboard, feather pin, glasses, and monkey in a cage “Now apparently during your intensive care incident where you, the fighter got poisoned and you apparently grew a tail” Discord finished with a bit of laughter behind it.

Raze nodded and was about to say something when his mouth zipped up and Discord said “No interrupting, now I shall “tail” you what your back growth means” he then pulled out a metal stand with rolled up paper and pulled one of them down revealing an in depth look at Celestia's flanks.

Raze blushed a bit “Ummmmm...... They fill up the paper???”

Discord was also blushing a bit “They're naturally sized I'm sure, at least I'd like to find out...” he trailed off as another presence was felt. Discord turned around and saw a white chest he then turned back around and at the same time put his lion paw back to make sure he was correct 'Yep soft fur, that's Celestia behind me....'

Raze turned around “Hey Celestia!!! What's going on?”

Celestia half smiled at that “I'm just checking in on my new favorite hero here” and then she added “I'm also here to check on my least favorite villain”

Discord snorted disdainfully “Well you're my least favorite princess!!!” he exclaimed to her.

Celestia got a smug smile and pointed her hoof at the picture on the slide show presentation and said “That would say otherwise” she finished with a giggle she asked Raze “What do you think of my flanks?”

Raze blushed “Errrmmmmm... They're nice I guess” he had no idea what to say in a situation like this he felt like a kid caught looking over the internet at naughty things.

Discord was actually about to ask her if he could see the real thing that is until the fake thing had been vaporized by a silently fuming Alicorn, so instead of asking he turned back to Raze “And the real lesson is to never piss off the ladies especially god tier ones!!!”

Celestia smiled once more and said to Raze “I see that you've got a tail again and my student sent me a letter telling me that she managed to get you to her library” she cleared throat and added “Let me lay some ground rules down for you” she put her hoof on his shoulder gently and paused, but what came next Raze would never have expected.

Celestia's grip with her hoof became a near crushing feeling on his shoulder “Rule 1, No distracting her from her studies unless she asks you to” she waited a second and then went on “Rule 2, Since you did dance with Twilight and you were with Discord staring at my flanks I can tell you have no problem with alien race, so unless it's consensual you WILL not touch her in any naughty way or you'll find out how SOUL crushing these hooves can be, Understand?!” Raze nodded in fear “Rule 3, I want a report from you every week on adventures you've had in our land of Equestria” Raze agreed to that while still being afraid of Rule 2, not that he had anything to worry about he had no want for ponies and that's what he'll tell himself for a long while.

Celestia smiled “Perfect!! and now Discord what were you going to tell him?” Celestia questioned Discord as she wondered what this lesson was supposed to be about.

Discord was going to say something when an alarm went off and the sound of wubs reverberated into his mind which dragged him out of his sleep rather quickly.

~The Waking World~

As soon as Raze had opened his eyes he found that indeed the walls were shaking and books were falling all around and he had no idea who was playing the beat. Raze got up and walked outside to find banners hung up everywhere saying “Welcome Raze!!” in big letters everywhere.

Next thing he knew Pinkie Pie had shown up out of nowhere like normal “Hey Pinki-” he had started when she opened her mouth “HI RAZEY!!! I put this together two days ago and everyone had agreed we had to get you down here, so I got Vinyl Scratch and everypony around here to make this go really well and the princesses are going to visit and I got inflatables, balloons, and even performers!!!” she exclaimed loudly and happily.

Raze felt that she went overboard, but he could forgive her based on the facts he knew about her so he responded with “Thanks Pinkie that was really nice of you and I will have to find a way to pay you back sometime” with that Pinkie disappeared and was replaced with Twilight tapping him on his waist.

Raze turned towards her saying “Hey Twilight having a nice morning?”

Twilight looked really different, her mane was everywhere and she looked as if she had stayed up all night as he could see bags under her eyes she responded finally “I woke up in the middle of the night and could go to sleep, so I read a lot and there's no coffee made because Spike is gone”

Raze looked skeptical “How can you not know how to make coffee?” he asked her.

Twilight shrugged “Everything I touch in a kitchen burns to the ground, so Spike is the breadwinner when it comes to cooking” she finished as she began to to walk to Sugarcube corner.

Raze would've followed her had he not been interrupted by a pony he had never met before. She looked smaller than the others and there was three rather than one. One was orange with a purple mane, another was white with a pinkish purple mane that seemed to have two different sides, and the last one was yellow with a red mane.

The first one to talk was the orange one “What are you!?” was the first thing she asked.

Before Raze could say anything Applejack interrupted them “Isn't that a might bit rude Scootaloo?” Scootaloo looked at Applejack and then at Raze before grabbing her scooter and zooming over to what appeared to be Rainbow Dash.
Applejack looked at Raze “I'm sorry about that Raze, but Scootaloo is really headstrong sometimes” she said to Raze whom shrugged.

“It's alright I've gotten used to it by now and besides it's time I met some more ponies by now and what better way to start than at this block party?” he asked her.

Applejack nodded and smiled “That's the spirit Raze and these two are Applebloom and Sweetie Bell”

Raze bent down and put his hand out which was obliged with their hooves which were both shaken “Hey Applebloom and Sweetie Bell, I'm Raze!!”

They both responded with “Nice to meet you Raze!!” they then added “Were the Cutie Mark Crusaders!! or at least were missing a member, that was Scootaloo you should meet her!!” they then went with Applejack to the apple bobbing booth leaving Raze alone.

Raze walked over to Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo “Hey Rainbow nice day huh?”

Rainbow Dash smiled “It sure is!! I had the weather team clear out all the clouds from here to the mountain!!” she finished excitedly. Though it didn't seem to matter to her normally she did have a lot of pride in the weather team being she was the captain and all.

Raze then bent down to Scootaloo's level “Hey there Scootaloo I'm Raze!!” he then held out his hand to which she smacked away 'She's feisty Ill give her that' he thought to himself as Scootaloo opened her mouth.

“I know you and Rainbow Dash raced and I also know that it was a fluke!!!” she growled angrily at him. Raze stood up and scratched his head.

“I'm sure that it wasn't a fluke Scootaloo, in fact I think she was trying, right Rainbow?” he asked her as he was genuinely curious to know her answer.

Rainbow Dash looked from Scootaloo to Raze and said “Alright the truth is I was trying as hard as I possibly could to beat Raze and it didn't work....” she took a second to let that sink in and then added with a confident look “But I'm training really hard and I definitely wanna race some other time!!!” she finished in a her highly confident manner.

Raze smiled “I'd love to race sometime again, but I think that I could help you out with your training” Rainbows ears perked up at the sound of that.

“You could help me train? How?” she asked in a nonchalant manner, though in reality she actually liked the idea.

Raze went on despite her nonchalance “YEAH!!! You could do some gravity training and become really strong then I could have a student!!!”

Rainbow was about to say something, but Raze was truly excited and ignored her while going on “OH!!! and then you could spar with me and OH!!! Having a pony fighter would be so awesome!!!” /)^ɛ^(\ his face had almost contorted in his own hands at the thought of training one of those miniature horses it just made his day.
Rainbow finally decided to get a word in edgewise “So you would train me for nothing at all?”

Raze nodded “It would have to be next week though because I'm supposed to hang out here with Twilight”

Rainbow smiled “Awesome!!! So how about Monday next week then?”

Raze agreed “Yeah Monday sounds cool!!” he said in excitement.

Rainbow then narrowed her eyes “I gotta find something to do till next week then... See ya Raze!!” and with that she flew off.

Raze watched the rainbow trail fade into the sky while thinking 'Now what could I possibly do now?' he turned back to the party 'Oh yeah....' and with he made his way to the apple bobbing area to enjoy the rest of the party.

~In the ancient castle of the royal pony sisters~

A whirring could be heard as the TARDIS came into view and out stepped the time duo looking very heroic and somewhat sweaty. The Doctor and Derpy made their way out of the castle and towards Ponyville.

Derpy was the first to talk “So did you enjoy your present on the way back Doctor?” she finished with a curious gaze in his direction.

The Doctor blushed “Errrmmm... It was an endearing experience even though you didn't give me any other choice...” he said while feeling slightly embarrassed.

Derpy then got all the way in his face “Would you come back home with me for round 2 if I made muffins?”

At that The Doctor nearly combusted on the spot “Ummm-”

Derpy laughed and said “Actually I'm really tired so, let's just go home...” and with that she walked ahead leaving a wordless Doctor in the dust.

Well the beginning to season 2 isn't exciting, but it isn't supposed to be it's just telling you what happened in the next two days. With references everywhere I'm beginning to wonder if ill ever run out of ideas. I guess we'll see.

Season 1 Grand Moon Celebration Part 1

Raze's Journey Chapter 10

A train passed by the open field as it made it's way into the mountains. There were many ponies aboard this train and one lone Saiyan. He leaned on an open window as his hair caught the wind. Our Saiyan's name is Raze.

Raze was uncharacteristically bored, but that wasn't really the biggest issue. He had been dragged along on trip that he hadn't been particularly interested in going on. He had no say though as a very forward mare wouldn't let him say no and as the saying goes “Tartarus hath no fury like a mare scorned.”.

Raze hadn't been fond of the action that happened, but he wouldn't go alone and that's where our story begins.

~Flashback to the Morning~

Raze opened his eye's and looked around at the bookshelf’s 'What a nice morning and it looks like nobody or pony for that matter is awake I think I'll go for a stroll...' and with that he picked himself up off the makeshift bed.

Raze stretched his arms and legs and proceeded out the front door of the tree he had grown quite accustomed to 'I should go flying or maybe.... Ehhh... I don't really know what to do' His stomach growled and he finally realized something “I'm hungry!” he said in a matter of fact tone.

He found himself in the middle of the town and at Applejack's stand 'I swear these apples are good but, how do I always end up near them?' Applejack was looking at him expectantly from within the stand as though she had said something and was waiting for an answer.

Raze scratched his head and asked “Can you say that again?”

Applejack chuckled a bit and said “I'll do that Sugarcube! I actually asked if you wanted anything to eat?”

Raze smiled and said “Yeah sure that would be amazing if I could get something!” his hands went to his pockets on the Yardrat clothing he wore but, he remembered he had no money or bits as the ponies called it.

Applejack picked up on that and said “Don't worry there on the house after all you saved Equestria!” she passed him a few apples and he scooped them up and wolfed them down in seconds.

Raze patted his stomach and said “That's always good!”

“It's always good if it comes from Sweet Apple Acres!” she said and he nodded with knowing it's the absolute truth.

Raze looked around and said “Well I best be going there's a lot of places I have to go and food was stop one!!” he then mentally added 'Now if only I could figure out all the other stops....'

Applejack waved him off and soon he found himself walking through the park. He noticed the cracks on the surface of the ground and cringed a little 'That Shadowbolt captain really hit the ground hard.....'

Raze then looked around a bit more and saw more of the fight “That was some fight Raze!! I was really impressed with your moves!!!” Raze turned around only to find Rainbow Dash wearing her necklace with the red lightning bolt on it.

Raze smiled and said “Thanks Rainbow!! That means a lot!!”

Rainbow Dash then turned around to fly off when she was interrupted by Raze being in the spot she had just turned around to “Raze what are you doing?”

“What's that necklace do besides holding so much energy inside?” he asked hoping for a genuine answer.

Rainbow Dash shrugged and said “Magic!! I don't have to explain anything...” and with that she flew off leaving behind a clueless Raze.

Raze began his walk again only to be interrupted by the greatest force of nature this world had ever seen! “Derpy! What's going on?”

Derpy smiled and said “I got The Doctor out of his Tardis and made him go with me and Dinky on a walk through the park.”

Raze looked over to The Doctor whom looked on the brink of sadness “Hi Raze... I'm being forced on an adventure called forced parenting... Time to grow up right?”

Raze had no idea what he was talking about until he felt something gripping his leg. Raze looked down to find a Unicorn staring back up at him “Hello there and what is your name?”

The Unicorn looked at him and smiled saying “I'm Dinky! What's your name mister?”

Raze looked at the little Unicorn closely and said “Awwww your adorable!” he then smacked himself 'The ponies are getting to me.... UGH!'

Raze shook himself while Dinky looked at him in confusion before running back to Derpy and hiding behind one of her legs “He's weird Momma!”

Derpy laughed while Raze got himself together “He's just a little off sometimes, but he means well.” she said to Dinky who then laughed with her.

Raze thought to himself 'She and myself make me look bad... Is that my luck showing?' he asked himself before he finally decided to tell Dinky his name “I'm Raze! I saved your Momma from a big scary dragon!”

Dinky's eyes grew big and she turned to Derpy “Is that true Momma?”

Derpy nodded and said “Yes My Little Muffin It's true.”

Dinky bounced from her mother and began to bounce around Raze “YAY! Raze is a hero!”

Raze blushed a bit from the praise and mumbled “Yeah....”

After the bouncing around was finished Dinky, Derpy, and The Doctor said “Have a great day!” and “See ya later!” and left on their way.

Raze actually figured he should check in on Twilight seeing as he had left without her knowledge and he proceeded to go back into town.

As he walked he felt as if he was being watched and each step he took the feeling became greater. Raze turned around and looked around. Nobody or pony for that matter was watching him, so he continued on his path only to find the feeling returning 'This isn't right at all....'

Suddenly a flash of light appeared in front of him and seemed to drown the area around Raze in the light. Raze shielded his eye's as the light began to fade.

“You can stop shielding your eyes!” Raze lowered his arms and saw The Doctor.

“I just saw you with Derpy how are you here?” Raze asked in confusion.

The Doctor smiled and said “You've seen me in the past, but that's not important right now!! What is important is that you get my gift!” The Doctor then went inside the blue box behind him leaving Raze alone and very much confused.

Raze walked up to the blue box and began to inspect it and found nothing strange about it. The only thing at all that came to his mind was 'It's only a box and there's nothing to it...'

The Doctor opened the door and stuck his head out saying “Well are you coming in here or not?”

Raze shrugged and followed the Doctor into the box.

~In the library~

“Oh-no Oh-no Oh-no Oh-no Oh-n...” Twilight was silenced by Rainbow Dash who had come to read the new Daring Do book and instead found a worrying unicorn.

“What's going on Twilight?” Rainbow asked her.

Twilight turned around and said “I just got a new letter from Princess Celestia saying she wanted all of us and Raze to go to the castle, but I can't find Raze and if he doesn't come with use I'm sure ill be thrown in a dungeon, OR WORSE!”

Rainbow Dash watched the frantic unicorn dash around the library while she rolled her eyes “I think you're overreacting Twilight.” she finished, but then decided say something else “Remember last time how you overreacted and nothing went wrong!”

Twilight began to hyperventilate while ignoring the pegasus in the library while she zoomed around trying to find a nonexistent Raze.

Meanwhile an excited Pinkie was followed by Rarity, Fluttershy, and Applejack whom were wondering why the Princess decided to send them all a summons on this day.

Spike opened the door when he heard the bouncing Pinkie. Each filed in until there was a circle standing around Twilight.

Applejack was the first to ask “What are we doing here so early in the day?”

Twilight smiled and said “I'm glad you asked Applejack!” she stopped and looked around for a second.

Rarity narrowed her eyes a little “Well, dear please explain any time now would be nice! I have dresses to make and they aren't made while I'm here.”

Twilight's horn fired up and a letter was brought out with the official seal of Celestia put on it and began to read it.

Dear Twilight and Friends,

I, Princess Celestia do cordially invite you to
the Grand Moon Celebration. Luna is leading
the celebration by bringing the moon to it's highest
power at full moon. Please bring Raze, Derpy,
and the Doctor with you as it would be a
delight for them to share in the festivities
as they have helped save the world.

Your Mentor and Friend,

Princess Celestia

Twilight rolled it back up and teleported it to the secret place she keeps letters that come from Celestia and then turns to her friends “That's what were all here for! One problem though is I can't find Raze, Derpy or the Doctor, so I need all of your help! Will you help me?” she asked them and they all nodded.

“What are friends for!?” Pinkie said excitedly as she zoomed out the door leaving every other pony behind.

Twilight looked in the direction she had went and yelled "PINKIE! You went into the kitchen!"

Pinkie laughed from in the kitchen and said "YES INDEEDY! I'm making food!"

Rainbow Dash picked up at that part by saying "You are so random!"

~In the TARDIS~

The Doctor had stopped in the middle of space just outside the planet of Earth (Pony version of Earth) where he was sure they wouldn't be interrupted. He turned to Raze whom hadn't said or moved much except for his head which seemed to be looking all around the inside of the ship.

The Doctor interrupted Raze's staring with a cough and said “Yes it's bigger on the inside....” Raze noticed his tone didn't sound all that friendly right now 'What's wrong?' he thought to himself as the Doctor made his way to Raze.

“I am here from the future” The Doctor said in a matter of fact voice which made Raze a bit uneasy and yet the Doctor continued anyway “And ill be honest it's only 3 days into the future where I come from, but it's all your fault!!!” he roared angrily at the last three words which stunned Raze whom had never seen the Doctor angry before.

Raze felt compelled to ask, so he did “What's my fault?”

The Doctor stared at him with the fires of tartarus in his eye's and said “I can't tell you that... What I can do is attempt to change it” he went to the main console of the TARDIS and brought out a sphere which had runes all over it. He the made his way over to Raze from the console and gave it to him “This is an ancient orb that is said to enhance the Elements of Harmony and allow them to reach super states. Princess Celestia commanded me to bring this item to you in the past in the hope that you will hand it to Twilight”

Raze rolled the orb in his hand around before nodding and saying “I'll give this to Twilight... Now what did I do?!”

The Doctor shook his head and said “There isn't a reason to say anything, but I will say this one thing... You're lucky I'm not trying to kill you.” he finished with deadly intent as he went back towards the console and began to flip switches and press buttons.

The Doctor then said “Were going back to Earth!” he then slammed down a lever which made the entire area shake as the TARDIS plummeted down to the area the Doctor had met Raze in earlier.

In seconds the TARDIS had touched the ground making Raze fall to the floor. He grunted while The Doctor had hung to the control panel as if his life depended on it and it probably did.

Then as suddenly as the TARDIS had began it's descent it stopped. Raze coughed a little and picked himself up off the floor. The Doctor then preceded to push him outside the TARDIS while saying “Remember to pass the artifact to Twilight!!!”. Then he went back inside the TARDIS.

Raze watched as the TARDIS began to disappear. Raze then walked away only to look back one last time to see that it had finally gone. With a sigh Raze headed towards the library where he would be yelled at for being late.

~At the Library~

Spike was looking out one of the Library windows at the time when he saw Raze approaching the building “RAZE IS BACK TWILIGHT!” he yelled which caused a chain reaction as several things fell on the ground followed by crashes as the unicorn appeared at her door which she unlocked as Raze opened the door from the other side causing Twilight to smash into her wall.

“I'M BACK!” Raze exclaimed as he looked around confused “Twilight are you here?” he asked as he walked through the door careful not to hit his head. He shut the door without turning around and walked into the main part of the tree.

Raze smelled food coming from the kitchen and heard voices accompanying the smell. The first voice was Rainbow Dash “Are you almost done Pinkie? I'm starving!” she groaned as Pinkie continued to hum to herself blissfully unaware of anything outside her little world.

Raze poked his head into the kitchen “HEY EVERYONE!” he yelled as Rainbow Dash's center of gravity changed and she ended up on the ceiling looking down at Raze with horrified eyes.

Pinkie had flung a frying straight into the wall right next to Raze's right cheek and Rarity made a girlish scream that destroyed several glasses including a window.

Applejack ignored all of the others remarks and said “You sure do know how to make an entrance Raze!”

Raze smiled and said “Well I didn't expect the frying pan, but no damage here....” he finished as Pinkie took the frying plan out of his hand and went back to her little world.

“Rainbow why don't you get on down here and say hi? You look a bit scared up there” Applejack said with a chuckle.

Rainbow narrowed her eyes and said “Yeah yeah real funny....” as she flapped her wings and turned herself right side up again and touch the floor with a light clop sound.

Raze smiled innocently at Rainbow as she kept her narrowed eyes at him “Where were you Raze? We looked everywhere for you!”

Raze frowned and said “I'm not going to say anything because it will make me sound crazy and where is Twilight at?”

“I'm right here” Raze turned his head to the entrance of the kitchen and saw Twilight with her mane severely disheveled, little pieces of wood sticking out of her coat, crazy eyes, and a creepy grin with a Fluttershy beside her.

Raze was about to say something when Rainbow Dash began to laugh at Twilight's expense “What's so funny Rainbow?” she asked menacingly.

“Nothing at all Twilight.” Rainbow said in mock fear as she chuckled inwardly.

Twilight grumbled as she clopped past Rainbow Dash and took a seat at the table. Fluttershy followed her and also took a seat.

Raze took this moment to pull out the artifact handed to him from the Doctor and put it on the table. The orb automatically caught Twilight's attention and she asked “What's that Raze?”

Raze shrugged and said “Well this pony gave it to me saying that the Elements of Harmony would be able to use it when each of them are ready and that's it.”

Twilight hoofed the orb a little before giving up with a sigh and then she looked at Raze determinedly “Well, Raze now that you're here it's time to get you to do what you're here for and that is to also study our culture!!” she then levitated the scroll that had been sent by Celestia which he read.

After finishing the reading he looked at her and said one word “Yes” he then walked out of the kitchen leaving an excited Twilight sitting in her chair.

~Outside the tree~

The sun was shining and Raze was sitting on a bench when he heard something moving at the top of the tree library. He decided to check on what it was and found the unexpected.

“Lyra?” Raze asked in complete confusion.

“That's my name don't wear it out!!” and then she clopped her hoofs together and looked behind herself to see Raze floating behind her she smiled sheepishly “Ummmm.... Hi”

Raze shook his head and asked “Why are you in this tree?”

Lyra looked around and said “This tree looked like a really nice spot to camp in, so I made myself at home!”

Raze frowned “So you just happened to this particular tree?” Lyra nodded quickly and Raze continued “In this particular spot?” she nodded and he continued again “The place that I just so happen to be staying at?”

“Yep! What a coincidence!” Lyra said while giggling innocently about the whole situation.

Raze smiled himself and picked her up slightly and put her on his back and flew off he then went above the clouds and said “Look here!! I'm going to say this only once!! Okay?”

Lyra nodded as she gripped around his neck fearing that she would fall.

Raze took a breath and said “I'll answer any questions you have about the humans in a few days, but you have got to stop spying on me otherwise we'll have to get serious! Got that?” Lyra nodded and then Raze said “Good! Now hold on and ill drop you off in Ponyville!”

Lyra gripped his neck hard and he flew down touching the ground in the middle of Ponyville market then he put her down and turned about to walk away when he thought of something “Wait Lyra!” Lyra turned into his direction and he asked her “Where does Derpy live?” she pointed to a small house that was close to Sugarcube Corner and he said “Thanks”.

Lyra said “No problem and ill expect you over sometime soon!” with that she left to her house.

Raze walked to Derpy's house and knocked on the door. It was quiet at first, but then several bangs happened and you could hear lots of neighing going on and what appeared to be lambs also going insane. Raze continued to wait patiently until finally Derpy opened and the door and said “Welcome Sir.... Oh it's you Raze.. Well, come on in!”

~Inside Derpy's Home~

Raze had never been inside Derpy's home before and it looked pretty clean actually. From the way her eyes were he figured it be at least a little dirty, but there wasn't a speck of dust to be seen “Wow Derpy you really keep this place clean”

Derpy smiled and said “Yeah it doesn't take much time to keep it clean here! Especially when you have the best little helper.... I mean, best little muffin to help clean up!”she finished with a big smile.

Raze smiled too, but then he got serious “Derpy? I'm not here to for a casual visit I need to talk to the Doctor like right now!”

Derpy looked confused “Is this about something bad because you sounded really serious” she said in worry.

Raze shook his head “No and you don't need to worry... I just need to talk with him about two things and that's all.”

Derpy still looked unsure, but she trusted Raze and led him to the attic where the TARDIS stood in it's everlasting glory. Derpy knocked on the door and several clops could be heard before the door opened revealing the Doctor.

The Doctor looked at them both and asked “What's going on?”

Derpy looked up at Raze and said “I'm going to let you two have some privacy and when you both get down here there will be fresh muffins waiting for you both” they both said “Thanks!” and she walked down the ladder and soon disappeared leaving them alone.

Raze immediately narrowed his eyes at the Doctor and asked “Why did you come from the future and tell me you felt like killing me?”

The Doctor looked at him and said “How should I know?”

“No way I figured you would know since it was you who did that in the first place!” Raze yelled for every reason he couldn't understand in the first place.

The Doctor was about to walk downstairs when it finally clicked in his mind “WAIT! I suddenly came from the future?!” he exclaimed as he turned around and continued “What did I do and say?!”

Raze told him all that had happened in the day and he just sat there listening. Raze had finished explaining everything when the Doctor began to walk in a circle “So I threatened to kill you.... Something serious has to have happened in this three day period.... But what?”

“I also came here for a second question! Would you all like to go with me and the others to the Moon festival thing that's being thrown in Canterlot?” Raze asked as the Doctor began to consider the option heavily.

'Stay? Or go? Hmmmmm.... I wonder... do they sell fez's?' The Doctor pondered that then decided to ask Raze “Do they sell fez's?”

Raze shrugged and that put the Doctor into another thinking fit 'There is a 50 percent chance they sell fez's'. The Doctor shrugged and said “Ask Derpy and if she says yes I guess we'll go”

Raze immediately ran down stairs leaving the Doctor behind to continue his work.

~In the Kitchen 11:45 A.M.~

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Season 2 Shining Armor RPG: Legend of the Seven Dragon Balls

~Raze's Journey Chapter 13~

Shining Armor wiped sweat from his forehead and picked up the Dragon Ball, “This is the fourth one! Just two more and I can head back!” He exclaimed as two other ponies joined him.

One pony had a map in his hooves while the other held an axe in his magical grip. The first pony with the map was Mace Flinger, he specializes in using a mace to attack his enemies.

The other pony with the axe was Greato Axe, he was praised for his amazing strength and the powerful strikes of his axe.

Mace looked at the map, “We're making great time! I never expected to be able to find these orange balls so quickly.” He finished as he put the map into one of his saddle bags.

“I don't care about these orange balls, when do we get to fight?!” Greato questioned Shining Armor.

Shining had been asked constantly about when they would go into battle and his answer was always the same, “Hopefully we'll manage to avoid any conflict before it happens.”

“That's just boring, Shining you used to be a go getter! What happened?” Greato said as Shining chuckled.

“Getting married to the Princess of Love happened, you'll understand when your older Greato.” Shining said as he looked back at the radar like item in his magical grasp.

An orange blip signaled that the next ball was close to them. Shining looked up and saw a huge mountain. He gulped, 'And here I thought we were really close...' he thought to himself as Greato looked at it with a gleam in his eye.

“This is a test of will! The other ones are nowhere near as tough as this one will be!” Greato exclaimed as he waved his axe in the air.

Mace shook his head, “You two need to think about more than how big this mountain will surely be, but how many nights it will take to get to the top.” Mace finished as Shining and Greato nodded at him.

“We'll all remember to be cautious and we'll get through this just like every other time!” Shining exclaimed as he turned to them, “MARCH ON!” with that, the journey up the mountain began.

Mace looked around at all the creatures that watched them from a safe distance. He noticed that most of the creatures continued to try and avoid them as much as possible “What's up with these animals? Do they think we're a curse?”

“They're probably just timid because nopony goes up this mountain usually.” Shining said as they continued to march.

Greato smirked, “We're probably the most threatening things around here! This axe will scare anything” he finished while swinging it around, but Mace noticed that the animals didn't so much as flinch when Greato had done that.

“I think they aren't nearly as scared of you as you might think.” Mace said as they continued to trudge onward.

“You wanna make something of it Mace?” Greato snarled in reply.

“How about you two back off each other before I get caught in the mix.” Shining said with a glare back at them.

“Yes Sir!” they both said in unison as they saluted Shining in the usual manner.

Shining shook his head and continued walking forward. Mace and Greato glared at each other once more before turning away and following Shining up the path.

~Two Hours Later (It was 7:53 at the beginning of the chapter) Setting Up Camp~

A tent had been set up and a fire had been started as several seats that were extremely small were pulled out of a bag and then were made larger so the three guard ponies could sit around the fire.

Shining looked in the fire as it danced around the campsite. The woods seemed to echo with crickets playing a tune. The breeze blew his mane as one of his soldiers spoke up.

“Hey Captain? Do you have any idea what these things do?” Mace asked as he turned over one of the orange spheres with his hoof.

Shining shook his head, “The Princess wasn't clear at all when she sent me to look for them, I'm completely in the dark and I don't like it...” Shining trailed off as Greato poked the fire with a stick.

“What if they're some overpowered force of nature?” Greato asked as he continued to poke the fire with great interest.

“Then we would be delivering the ultimate weapon that Celestia could use to protect the entire of Equestria!” Mace said in excitement.

“Or it's not a weapon and the Princess is trying to keep us away with a meaningless fetch quest” Shining said as he took the orb into his magical grasp and put it with the rest in his bag.

“I was studying it!” Mace said as Shining shook his head.

“You were just playing with it!” Shining retorted as Mace shook his head.

“I was no-” Shining interrupted Mace.

“I know what real studying looks like! My little sister did far to much as it is!” Shining said as Greato laughed.

“You two act like children!” Greato chuckled as Shining fumed.

“Need I remind you of your childishness with Mace earlier?” Shining asked Greato which made him shut his mouth.

Mace smiled despite Shining's comment, “Childishness isn't anything to be worried about, it means that you still know how to have fun! Just like the Element of Laughter!”

Shining grimaced at the thought of Pinkie as she bounced everywhere, “I'd rather keep myself a little bit more mature than that...” he trailed off as Greato summoned his axe and began to clean yet again.

“Why must you constantly clean that axe off Greato?” Mace asked as Greato smirked.

“For battle of course! These woods harbor dangerous foes and I wouldn't want you two to be hurt during a skirmish.” Greato said as he shined up his axe.

Shining frowned at that, “Are you trying to say that you would be the only one capable of fighting off anything out here by yourself?”

“Of course! Whom else would be there to save a shield and mace user?” Greato said as he thrust the axe into the air via magic.

Mace looked at Greato, “A mace is a powerful weapon and this ones not ordinary! I can infuse spells with it to increase it's damage output!” Mace finished as his horn fired up and his mace became covered in what appeared to be fire.

“That puny thing would never compare to my grand axe slam! This axe is reinforced with magic and is able to handle high speed swings and cut through most any object!” to prove his point, Greato sliced his axe through the air and cut straight through a tree and caused it to fall and hit the ground.

Luckily the noise hadn't attracted to much attention. Greato and Mace looked at Shining expectantly, “What?” Shining asked them as they continued to stare.

“It's your turn!” Mace said to Shining.

“Yep, come on Shining! Show off!” Greato exclaimed as he put down his axe.

“Were you two playing this whole time and not actually competing against each other?” Shining asked them as they both began to laugh.

“Of course! Mace and I have hung out with most of the other ponies in the Guard! This is just what we do on some weekends!” Greato said as he chuckled.

Mace smiled, “Yeah! At first I thought it was just ponies making fun of me, but I learned it was just the opposite! Most of the Guard always brag nonstop because we haven't been in to many situations where battle is necessary.” finished Mace as Shining facehoofed.

“How do you two function?” Shining asked them.

Greato answered, “Hey! We're just like any other pony, we pay our taxes one hoof at a time!”

Shining felt his mind break a little, “I'm going to end up drowning you both before the end of this aren't I?”

“You might go insane, but there's a high probability that you won't” Mace said as he chuckled now.

Shining shook off his confusion, “Well, I'm going to turn in for the night. Make sure this fire get's put out!” with that, Shining disappeared into the large tent.

Mace looked at Greato, “Now what?”

“I'll take up watch and you can go to sleep if you want.” Greato said to Mace.

“I'm sleeping outside tonight and you can quote me on that.” Mace said as he took out a small bag out of the larger bag they carried and then he activated his horn. In seconds the little bag became a big sleeping bag.

“That miniaturization spell works wonders for light packages!” Mace said as he opened it up and got inside. He closed it with his magic and said “Night!”

Greato shook his head, “Night.” Then he began to watch... and watch.... then he watched some more.

~Inside the Tent~

Shining had taken the bag containing the orange spheres into his tent and had laid it down beside where he slept. The bag had begun to tip over and as soon as it touched the ground, one of the balls rolled out and tapped Shining on his head.

Suddenly his dream of returning to his wife turned into a dark storm, “Wha?! What happened?!” Shining questioned as lightning struck down in front of him.

Shining flinched and fell back as golden arks of intense energy flashed outward and began to fill the skies with darkness all around Shining Armor.

The shimmering arks of light spread outwards through the clouds as it came to an end in front of Shining. The light began to burn into a fiery aura as a green form came into shape.

'What is that thing?' was all Shining could think as he found red piercing eyes staring at himself.

“Hmmm... Who are you supposed to be little pony?” asked the creature that floated above Shining Armor.

Shining felt his mouth moving and the words seemed to tumble out, “Umm... I'm Shining Armor, Captain of the Royal Guard.” he finished as the creature moved closer. Upon closer inspection it looked like a dragon.

“Shining Armor... You sound like something from a princess's fairytale” The Dragon said as he inspected Shining.

Shining had no idea how to react to that comment, 'He's a big overgrown Dragon and I'm a little Unicorn...' he finished that thought quickly as the Dragon put one of it's big claws to it's chin.

“Okay then...” Shining said as the Dragon looked at him once more.

“You have an impressive amount of achievements, I just took a look into your past and it's filled with Hydras, Griffons, and Dragons! All slayed by you and your little group.”

Shining stepped back as his thoughts turned darker, 'I've offended him! And that means I have to get away from here!' Shining finished his thoughts and began to run away while stuck in motion 'I CAN'T RUN AWAY!'

“I know what you're thinking, you think I'm offended by you killing off the dragons! I'm afraid that your fear is baseless, I know none of the dragons of your world nor have I any desire to save the ones whom should suffer for their crimes against you ponies. I do wish to speak with you if you want to stop running for five minutes.” The Dragon said down to the pony whom had recently been cowering in his wake.

Shining now looked up at the Dragon in mild curiosity, “Talk about what?” he asked the creature above him.

“A threat that has been forgotten, I looked into the past of this world and it seems that Celestia has forgotten this human and he shall-” The Dragon was interrupted by loud thunderous blasts.

“Shining! Something is interrupting and taking over my power over this sacred area! You must get out!” The Dragon roared over the blasting sounds as Shining faded from existence in a huge white light.

~Waking World~

“WAKE UP!” yelled an alarmed Greato Axe.

Shining jumped up and quickly trotted out to see Greato Axe staring down a group of Gryffons. He noticed Shining immediately, “It's about time one of you woke up, I was beginning to have a little trouble with these four Gryphons here!” The Gryphons stared angrily at the now awoken Shining Armor.

“You brought more ponies onto our territory?!” the first Gryphon said to the others.

“Yeah, who do you think you are?!” a second Gryphon.

“I'm the Captain of the Royal Guard, Shining Armor!” Shining Armor exclaimed to the Gryphons.

“And I'm Greato Axe! What about all of you?!” Greato said while pointing his hoof at the Gryphons.

“We're the Gryphons who rule this area! I am Saber!” Saber said as he pointed to his other gryphon friends.

“The second Gryphon here is Gex, the third is Sly, and the fourth is Fen” Saber said as the other Gryphons smirked at the ponies.

“Now that we've got the formalities out of the way, which of you wishes to die first?” Saber asked as a gust blew up and whipped the trees with a bit of force.

“Nobody has to die today Saber! Just leave and we'll pretend this never happened.” Shining said to the Gryphon.

Saber pondered this for second, but before he could say anything, the fourth Gryphon mentioned roared “I will not wait for this a moment longer! Die Pony!” Fen finished as he charged at Shining Armor.

Fen met with a shield instead of any part of the Prince that stood before him. Then an axe was slammed violently through Fen's back instantly cutting off the lower portion of the Gryphon's body.

“I don't take kindly some creature messing with my mate here and that goes for the rest of you!” Greato said as he swung his axe threateningly at the other three Gryphons who were still on their talons.

Mace came out of his tent and noticed the already dieing Gryphon on the ground, “Greato, you sure do know how to make a point. Now we'll have to clean this up when we're done...” he said as he used his magic to pull out his mace.

Shining Armor summoned his magic which created a blade of ethereal energy, “Attack on my mark.” he commanded as the Gryphons crouched at the armed ponies.

The group of ponies stood on one side while the three remaining Gryphons stood on the other side. They stared each other down as the wind rustled the trees around themselves.

“Now!” Shining yelled as he galloped towards Saber. Shining swung his magical blade into the air and then downward as Saber moved swiftly to one side. Shining change it's direction in midair and made the magical blade go to the right as Saber ducked in the nick of time.

Saber smirked and then flew forward and cut Shining on the side of his left shoulder, “Errgghh!” Shining groaned as he swung the blade around where he guessed Saber was coming around for another attack.

Saber hadn't expected Shining to react quickly and he tried to dodge the ethereal blade, but it caught him on his back left leg, “Damn Pony!” It cut into his skin and into the flesh drawing a healthy amount of blood from Saber.

The attack had slowed down Saber and Shining jumped at the chance to strike at his enemy. Saber, however got up quickly and moved away from the blade and back flipped over the charging Shining Armor. Saber then moved forward to jump Shining from behind.

Shining noticed Saber moving in to attack and then did the only thing he could think of. He dug his front hooves into the ground and then went forward lifting his back hooves into the air. Then Shining bucked Saber as hard as he possibly could which caused the Gryphon to smash into a tree and then slide down it slowly before hitting the ground with a thud.

'That should take care of him for now.' Shining thought as he went off to help Mace whom was dodging talons in a frenzied fashion.

~Jump Cut to Greato Axe~

Gex flew into the air and disappeared behind a cloud. Greato looked around as the Gryphon flew down and struck Greato on his side with it's talons and then flew right back up.

Greato's blood dripped down from where Gex had slashed at him, 'He's already got me... He's able to fly down and gain speed while all I can do is sit and wait. What am I going to do?!' he thought to himself as he heard the wind begin to pick up.

Gex came down and flashed out his talons as he closed in on Greato, “Not today!” Greato yelled as he swung his axe into the air while summoning fire around the axe. Gex dodged it gracefully and slashed down his other side.

Gex then landed and smirked, “Looks like you're not quite as challenging as I thought you would be considering the strength you seem to exude!” he finished with a laugh.

'This ones the smartest of the bunch, what am I going to do?' Greato asked himself as the Gryphon stepped forward.

“You will just be another kill for me, It's time to end this!” Gex lurched forward and struck openly while making sure to stay away from the axe.

Greato dodged away from Gex and sidestepped him yet again as the Gryphon charged into where he had been previously, “Stop moving around little pony! I promise that if you do this will end quite fast.” Gex said as it pounced yet again.

Greato summoned flames from his horn and at the same time made his axe slash downward in an ark towards Gex, “You're trying this again?!” Gex quickly got out of the way of the incoming attacks and then rolled to add more distance.

Then Gex sped forward and was able to get a hold of Greato's horn. Gex gripped it and suddenly the axe stopped in midair, then it fell to the ground.

“You're a one trick pony it seems, but It looks like it's all over from here!” Gex grabbed Greato and slammed him into the ground “See?! I knew it was only a matter of ti-” CRACK!

Gex fell over as Mace Flinger looked on at the damage he had done. His mace floated back onto his belt and he watched as blood seeped out of the wound he had made, “I was getting sick of his voice, you alright Greato?”

“Uhh... Yeah, I'm alright! Just a little dazed...” Greato said as he picked himself up off the ground. Greato looked around and noticed the third Gryphon was missing.

“Where's that other Gryphon at?” Greato asked as he continued to look around.

“You mean Sly? He fled as soon he saw Saber be defeated by Shining. I'll admit that I expected more from them, but we have two that are still alive!” Mace said as Shining joined them.

“Shining, how was your first tasted of action since the wedding?” asked Greato as Shining smiled.

“It was refreshing! I haven't had any action... since my.... wedding....” Shining finished as he started to realize how wrong that sounded. Greato and Mace burst into laughter at Shining's expense.

“I assume you had relations with that bug queen and Cadenza afterward, which one was better?” Greato asked as Shining's face grew red as tomato.

“I- I- Ah? Do- This is stupid! I'm getting some water!” said Shining as he trotted away while Greato and Mace stifled their laughter.

Greato had stopped first, “We should tie up these two Gryphons and then dispose of the deceased one.” He pulled out some rope and tied up the Gryphon that had almost killed himself.

Mace went to the one that was currently slumped against the tree and then pulled out some rope from his pack. He made sure to tie up the Gryphon and then used his magic to pick up the Gryphon and then towed him to camp alongside Greato whom carried the other Gryphon.

~Camp~

Shining Armor drank water from a canteen that he had left at camp as Mace and Greato trotted in with Gryphons on their backs, “We'll drop them off right here and- Oh! Looks like you've woken up Saber, don't try anything funny.” The Gryphon in question grumbled as he tried to break out of the rope that held fast against his constant movement.

The other Gryphon that had been smashed in the skull by Mace hadn't woken up yet. He lay dazed on the ground and jerked only slightly.

“I doubt that one Mace got is going to wake up, what are we going to do with him?” Greato asked Shining.

“We'll have no choice but to dispose of him too.” Shining said as he looked at Saber “We'll have to ask Saber about the area around here, I'm sure he'll know something more that we'll have to look out for.” Shining finished with a look in Saber's direction.

Saber gave him a glare in return and turned away with a growl.

“We'll give Saber some time to cool down and then we'll talk.” Shining said as Mace and Greato saluted him.

Shining saluted them both back and then went inside his tent.

~End of First Night~

~Meanwhile in another dimension....~

Raze was smacked into the ground by a large object and hit hard into the ground.

Raze grumbled as he rubbed his head, “Damn thing...” he finished as Discord popped up in front of him.

“That looked like it hurt!” Discord said in a sarcastic way.

“It did!” Raze exclaimed back to Discord.

“I didn't feel anything.” Discord said as he popped out of existence.

“DISCORD!” yelled Raze as the screen fades to black.

~The End~

Author's Note

I'm sorry for making people wait for this, I had writers block and I was busy with the new Journey of Saiyans chapter. I hope you all enjoy this!

Season 2 Supreme Powers and a Shady Mare!

~Raze's Journey Chapter 14~

Twilight Sparkle turned over in her bed as her back itched her once more, 'These new wings are really starting to get to me!' Twilight thought as she tried to roll over once again to get rid of the incredibly itchy feeling on her back.

“Oh forget it! I'm up!” Twilight said as the doors to her room opened.

“Not cool! I was going to wake you up!” the sound of Rainbow Dash's voice filled the room as she trotted in.

“Well, my wings beat you to it.” Twilight said as she activated her horn as magic covered the blanket she was under. The blanket pulled back and Twilight got up slowly.

Then she got all four of her hoofs on the floor and saw Rainbow Dash trotting over towards her, “It's good that your wings woke you up because that means they're ready to be stretched! You're starting flying lessons today with me! Rainbow Danger Dash!” Rainbow said in stride as Twilight smiled.

“That's great! But first comes breakfast and I'm sure Princess Celestia is expecting everyone in dining hall. Then we can go and try out these wings of mine. Okay?” Twilight asked Rainbow who grinned.

“Yeah! I know you're a natural born flier and I'm going to show you today! Right no-” Twilight narrowed her eyes at Rainbow “I mean after breakfast....” Rainbow trailed off as Twilight made her way out the door.

Rainbow followed behind her as they walked from the library wing of the castle. They passed by several Royal Guardsponies and Twilight greeted each and everyone of them.

“Twilight Sparkle! Dost thou need company on the way to the dining hall?” Luna asked as Twilight and Rainbow looked over at her.

“Sure Princess Luna! It's not to far now!” Twilight said as Luna fell in step beside her and Rainbow Dash.

“We thought that we had told you to call us just Luna, you are our equal in rank after all.” Luna said to Twilight who frowned in worry.

“Err... Right! I'm sorry Prin- I mean Luna. I'm not used to these wings yet and it seemed like everything just happened so fast, you know what I mean?” Twilight asked Luna.

“You will be just fine Twilight Sparkle, we know that you're a natural born leader! We also know that Skippy had a bet with us that Tia would have a student when we got back. He won...” Luna trailed off as Twilight raised an eyebrow.

“Who is Skippy?” Twilight asked Luna.

“A rock.” Luna said as Rainbow Dash interjected.

“Like “The Rock”, or just a literal rock?” Rainbow asked Luna.

“We think that we do not wish to speak with thou about matters that doth not concern you Rainbow Dash.” Luna said as she turned away from Rainbow.

“Why not?!” Rainbow exclaimed to Luna.

“Because we can't think of a reason at the moment.” Luna said as Twilight gave Rainbow a little glare.

Rainbow rolled her eyes and decided to leave it at that, 'Who cares about rocks! I get to teach Twilight how to fly! It's going to be so awesome!”

The group of ponies soon found their way to the entrance of the dining hall where Princess Celestia and the rest of the mane six presided, “Hello Twilight, Rainbow, and Sister! How was all of your mornings?” Celestia asked the three of them.

Twilight walked up to the table and sat down followed by Rainbow Dash. Luna had went to the front of the table and sat down next to Celestia.

Twilight answered Celestia first, “It's been really great, except my wings are itching a lot when I rolled around in bed.” Twilight finished as a servant of the castle brought her the trolley and she took a few things off of it with her magic.

Rainbow also took a few things off the trolley and then the servant left towards Luna. Luna looked at the Trolley and took an entire plate of donuts off the trolley. Everyone then watched as she proceeded to eat them all in fast gulps.

Celestia decided to continue the conversation when Rainbow looked at Luna, “Your really packing those away!” Rainbow said as Twilight jumped on her.

“We are very hungry at the moment and we wish for more donuts!” Luna said as the servant bowed.

“I shall bring more donuts right away your highness!” he said as he ran off with the trolley and disappeared into another room of the castle.

Luna continued devouring the donuts until there wasn't a single crumb left on the plate. She sighed dreamily, “Why didn't we ever have such delightfully good desserts in our time?”

“Because we didn't have such establishments in that time, usually I had to eat traditional cakes and you had early bed times.” Celestia said to Luna who frowned.

“If you hadn't treated us like a foal then maybe we would have stayed up later.” Luna said to Celestia who giggle a bit.

“You were a foal at the time. I was strict on bedtime because you needed your sleep.” Celestia said as Luna scoffed.

“We slept just fine! You never listened to us as you were to busy helping Starswirl with his spells.” Luna said sarcastically with a smirk at Celestia.

Celestia blushed a bit, 'So she knew about that...' Celestia didn't think about that thought for more than a few seconds, “Well, at least I could find something to do! You were always playing pranks on the guard and messing with my cakes!”

“I have brought what you asked for your Highness!” said the Servant as Luna growled angrily and got up from her chair.

“We leave for the training arena! Thank-you humble servant for our offering!” Luna said as she took the other plate of donuts into her magic and then teleported out of the dining room.

Pinkie smiled, “Well, that escalated quickly!”

Twilight was confused about what Luna had said to Celestia before and she decided to ask her what Luna had meant, “Princess?”

“Yes, Twilight?” Celestia asked Twilight.

“What spells did you help Starswirl with?” Twilight asked as Celestia blushed once more.

“Spells that you have no need to learn until your much older.” Celestia then mentally added 'And with the right pony...' Celestia finished as Twilight arched an eyebrow.

'She must have a good reason not to tell me, but now I can't help wondering why...' Twilight thought as Pinkie interjected.

“I bet she partied with him in private! I also think it involved lots of cre-” her mouth had been zipped shut with magic in seconds by Celestia.

“How about you all eat your food! It's getting quite cold and I wouldn't want to see our chef's hard work go to waste!” Celestia said as they all agreed, Pinkie nodded silently as her mouth was freed from the zipper.

Soon the only sounds that could be heard was hungry ponies eating much to the Kitchen staff's delight.

~Outdoor Training Arena~

“Cadets, This training arena is meant for the best of the best! And you aren't moving nearly fast enough to be considered anything but the worst of the worst! Get a move on!” said a Lieutenant to the recently recruited guards that had started moving faster.

A resounding, “Sir, Yes Sir!” echoed off the walls as the recruits continued their running.

Twilight and her friends had witnessed that and Rarity seemed to be watching with entirely to much interest. Rainbow Dash had ignored that completely as she was far to absorbed in the fact that she would teach Twilight to fly.

“Okay Twilight, Come over here with me and we can start!” Rainbow said as Twilight followed her.

“Okay, Rainbow!” Twilight said as she trotted over to Rainbow Dash.

“Now before we really start, you have to stretch!” Rainbow said as she unfurled her wings. She began to stretch them out.

“Okay!” Twilight unfurled her wings and began to stretch herself. Twilight followed Rainbow's movements as she instructed her about the importance of always stretching before flying.

Twilight raised her hoof as she felt that this was a new class that she had been tasked to take, “Yes, Twilight?” Rainbow asked her.

“Why don't you always stretch before you fly?” Twilight asked her.

Rainbow smiled, “I'm always limber! At least, I think that's the word for it... I'm always stretched out!” Rainbow finished with a smirk.

“Okay! And the word you're looking for is limber, so you were right!” Twilight said as she gave her wings a test flap.

Rainbow nodded, “Alright then! Let's get you off the ground!” With that, Rainbow flapped her wings and lifted off into the air.

Twilight flapped her wings and the lesson really began.

~Celestia with the Scientist Ponies in there secret Laboratory located underneath the Canterlot Castle~

Celestia had taken the liberty of having her scientists examining the Orb handed to her by Twilight and they had made fast discoveries about the items. She also had the Elements of Harmony in a case to the side.

Celestia watched as the scientists moved away from the orb, “Have you all found out something of value?” Celestia asked the scientists as they gave her a response.

“Yes, it appears to amplify energy.” One of them told her.

Celestia raised an eyebrow, “Okay, A little more specific, Please?” she asked as another pony walked up from behind all of them.

“I can answer you a little better, Your Highness.” said the pony.

“Who are you?” Celestia asked the pony.

“I'm the head of this group here. I'm Curious Tact, but you can call me Curious, Your Highness.” he said with a bow.

“You may stand Curious. What can you tell me about this Orb?” Celestia asked Curious.

“Of course. The others are absolutely right, it does enhance energy to it's highest magnitude. But it only works in tandem with the Elements of Harmony. Like how Rainbow Dash managed to achieve her Super Form by having the orb and all the Elements together at the same time.” Curious said to Celestia who picked up her hoof and rolled it a bit.

Curious nodded and continued “I also examined markings on the side. The Orb is actually it's own Element! The Element of Ascension!”

“The Element of Ascension? I've never heard of that before...” Celestia trailed off as Curious coughed a bit.

“I wasn't done yet, no offense was meant with that comment by the way. The scriptures say that it was the last stone untouched by your student and her friends. It was in the middle of the other elements. This element wasn't needed at the time because they were facing Nightmare Moon.” Curious said as Celestia put a hoof to her chin.

“That would explain why it never surfaced up before and why I never used it. In fact, when I placed the elements there, it hadn't appeared when I was there. It must date back centuries, but I had never known of it's existence. I wonder why it chose to reveal itself now?” Celestia said as Curious smiled.

“We also have an answer for that question. There were more scriptures on the inside of it, it's really small though. We have translated it through the use of magnification and it says something to you, Celestia!” Curious said as Celestia leaned in.

“What does it say?” Celestia asked as Curious smiled.

“It says this like it's a letter addressed to you, so here it is.” Curious said as he began to read the letter out loud.

Dear Whoever is Involved,
This message is for Celestia! Hello Celestia!
This is the Doctor and I would like to get together
with you in a few months, or so. It's an important day
for the future of Equestria is at stake! A mistake you
made is about to resurface and if I don't make it in time
to stop it from happening, then this is your only
hope for survival! I wish you well and hope you
figure out how to use this Element.

Cheers, The Doctor.

P.S: Derpy says, “Hi!”

P.S.S: I may deliver this early because another event
will take place involving a giant Gorilla.

P.S.S.S: I love Psing it's fun just like the fourth one!
(The fourth was much better than the Xone)

Celestia smiled, 'So he still is alive... Guess he wasn't lying about being immortal.' Celestia thought as she remembered the days when a Brown Stallion had come to her and took her on a grand adventure.

Curious looked at Celestia with curiosity, “Celestia? Are you listening?” he asked her which seemed to snap her out of the thoughts of the strange stallion.

“Yes... Actually what were you saying?” she asked Curious.

“I was asking you if you would like to test this Element out?” Curious asked her.

Celestia looked at the Orb resting in it's holder and then back at Curious, “I suppose it's unavoidable. I know which pony we should test it on.”

“Who would that be, Princess?” Curious asked her.

“My most faithful student of course. I'll ask her real quick, I think she's done with her first flying lessons today.” Celestia said as Curious nodded.

“I'll leave you to it, Your Highness.” Curious said to Celestia as she activated her horn.

She teleported out of the secret lab area leaving the scientists to get back to their work.

~Outdoor Training Area~

Twilight had landed for the last time that day, Rainbow figured that she had done quite well for a real first time flight. Twilight and her friends were about to leave the training area when Celestia appeared in front of them.

“Princess?! What are you doing here?” Twilight asked Celestia who facehoofed.

“I thought that I told you to call me just, Celestia. Never mind that though, I need to ask you something important, Twilight!” Celestia said to Twilight.

“You can ask me anything Prin- I mean, Celestia.” Twilight said quickly to Celestia.

“Well, it also involves your friends, If they want to of course. If not, then it won't work and we can forget about testing anything.” Celestia looked at the rest of the Elements.

Rainbow Dash was the first to speak up, “You can always count on me to be there! I never let down my friends!” Rainbow finished with a smile as she waited for the rest of her friends to join her.

Applejack nodded too, “I'm ready for whatever you've got Princess!”

Rarity and Fluttershy followed suit, “You know Darling, I've always went alongside my friends. I hope to continue on that path.”

Fluttershy looked down and then back up at the princess from behind her pink flowing mane, “I- I- I'm in... If that's okay with you.” she was then pulled into a group hug with the whole of the mane six.

Spike had finally made it back from the party he had been at for most of the day, “Hey everypony! I just got back from Moondan-” he stopped at the sight of the hugging mane six.

“Euuggghhhh... I'll head into the castle away from this mushy stuff.” Spike said as he made his way back to the castle.

Celestia smiled at their display of affection, “Well, let's begin the testing. I have a Scientist bringing the Elements to you and actually, here he is now!” Celestia said as Curious alongside his group of scientists brought a big box out with their magic.

“We've brought the Elements, Celestia! Is Twilight ready to test them?” Curious asked Celestia.

“She's ready and so are her friends. Give them the Elements.” Celestia said as Curious opened the box and allowed the six ponies to get their Elements. All of the necklaces were strapped around the five and the crown was atop Twilight's head in seconds.

Twilight smiled, “We're ready, Princess!”

Celestia nodded and then activated her horn bringing out the Element of Ascension, “Twilight, take this Element and stand in the middle of your friends. The rest of my little ponies must stand around you just like when you were turned into an Alicorn.” Twilight's friends turned to her and she looked at them.

Celestia turned to Luna, “Raise a barrier after I escort Curious away from the middle of the training field.” Curious looked at her and then called to his fellow Scientists.

“We already know to move out of this field, begin when ready, Celestia!” Curious said as he left to the outside of the field.

Luna got the signal from Celestia to raise the barrier. Luna activated her horn and it glowed a deep dark blue as a powerful barrier raised around the field and covered the entire area inside it.

Celestia then nodded to the Elements, “Activate the Elements now!”

The five necklaces began to glow as the Elements closed their eyes to concentrate on the energy flowing through their bodies. Twilight felt the energy surging around her as the Elements fired powerful blasts of light from the necklaces.

Twilight had not been hit by them. Instead, the Element of Ascension had taken the brunt of the blast. Then slowly the power stopped hitting the Element of Ascension.

Celestia activated her horn and suddenly the five other Elements appeared beside her. Rainbow looked around, “Did you teleport us over here, Celestia?” Rainbow asked her.

Celestia nodded as she gave a serious glance at Twilight.

Twilight stood alone in the middle of the field as the Element of Ascension began to glow and float in front of her. Then it fired a small beam of light that mixed the colors of the five elements together into the pointed star in the top of Twilight's Element. The Element of Ascension then floated daintily toward the ground and stopped glowing altogether.

Then it disappeared as Celestia teleported it back inside the box used to bring it outside. Celestia then looked at Twilight, expecting something to happen.

Twilight looked around, 'Hmmm... I don't feel any different.' she moved in place and stamped her hooves into the ground a little and then stopped.

Applejack looked onward in confusion “Is that it?”

Rainbow frowned, 'I thought something was supposed to happen just like with me, maybe she doesn't have it in her...'

Rarity almost felt like yawning at this moment, 'That wouldn't be acting like a lady...' she thought to herself.

Fluttershy looked at Twilight, but said nothing.

Celestia looked confused, 'I'm sure something should have happened by now, but what could be wrong?”

Pinkie felt her back twitch and then she yelled, “TAKE COVER!” she then appeared on the other side of the barrier.

Rainbow looked at Pinkie and then the barrier. Rainbow hit it with her hoof, 'OW!' she thought as she tried to hold back the tears threatening to fall from her eyes, 'Pinkie is so random...' she finished the thought as a white light blasted outward from around Twilight.

The ground churned up from her as Celestia watched the dirt and rock rise from the earth surrounding Twilight's hooves, 'This is it!' Celestia thought to herself.

Twilight felt her body getting bigger as more of her latent power spread the earth around her, 'What's happening to me?!' she thought to herself as her eyes were taken over by a white sheet.

Suddenly explosions of electricity erupted around Twilight and the shield was suddenly broken to pieces as Luna was shoved away by the massive energy Twilight was producing. The rocks that floated around Twilight then blasted away as Twilight screamed, “AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”

Celestia activated her horn and sent a magical beam that scattered into multiple beams that destroyed the rocks flying towards the ponies who were watching the transformation. Celestia then threw up her own barrier around herself and the ponies around her as the light around Twilight began to fade.

In the place where Twilight had been stood a much larger being. It was still Twilight, but her wings had grown much larger alongside her horn and she stood a full foot higher than Celestia, or Luna for that matter.

Twilight wore golden rings around each of her legs and several rings around her neck. Her Element was on top of her head and her eyes were still white. She turned her head to looked at Celestia and the other ponies.

Celestia saw the look in Twilight's eye, “Oh-no...” Celestia teleported the five ponies out of her barrier and well outside the imminent blast radius of what she felt coming.

Twilight's horn fired up as a huge magical blast materialized from it. The blast streaked towards Celestia's shield which then busted as the blast hit Celestia directly in her side. Celestia flew into the ground and made a trail as she continued sliding till she stopped at the end.

“RAGGGHHHHH!” Twilight yelled as her horn glowed and she teleported over to where Celestia had stopped. Far back from where Twilight and Celestia were, Twilight's friends watched in horror at the unbelievable scene happening in front of them.

“What is she doing?!” Rarity questioned as another pony joined her. It was the head scientist, Curious.

“She cannot control the power emanating from herself and she's attacking the most powerful being that was closest to her.” Curious said far to calmly as Rainbow ran over to him.

“How do we stop her?!” Rainbow asked the pony.

“You'll need to snap her out of it. You need to either tire her out, or make sure she runs out of magic. But I'm sure you don't need to do anything, the Princess's will keep control of the situation.” Curious said as he saw Celestia pick herself up.

“You can't control the power running through you, I have to somehow stop this.” Celestia said as Twilight charged up her magic once again.

“Oh-no you don't!” Celestia summoned her magic as lightning fired out of the sky into the spot Twilight had been standing in just a moment ago.

'Where did she go?!' Celestia thought to herself as she turned toward where Twilight was and found a point blank magical blast coming towards herself. Then another magical blast intercepted the one heading for Celestia.

'Looks like Luna is back on her hooves.' Celestia thought as sure enough, Luna had returned and landed next to Celestia.

“We should have known that something like this would happen. What shall we do Sister? She's got more magical strength than anything we've ever faced in the past.” Luna said as Twilight began to fire magical blasts at the duo.

Luna summoned her magic and several walls of earth moved to block the multiple attacks from Twilight. Twilight had then seized the moment to teleported when smoke filled the air from the explosions.

Luna looked beside herself and found Twilight charging at her with her horn pushed forward. Luna unfurled her wings and took to the air as Twilight stopped and focused her magic to fire several powerful beams into the air where Luna was.

Luna charged up her horn and teleported higher into the sky to avoid the attacks Twilight had summoned against her. Twilight then found herself pinned down by golden magic courtesy of Celestia.

Twilight eyes glowed even brighter as her scream filled the air, “AHHHHHHHHH!” Energy coursed around her as Celestia was thrown away from the area. Luna watched as even more earth churned up in the wake of Twilight's massive power.

Celestia tried to hold Twilight down, but the force Twilight output was far to much for her to continue. Her energy broke around Twilight and then Twilight disappeared in a flash.

Celestia then felt the air get taken out of her lungs as Twilight smashed into her side. Then Twilight prepared to finish the job only to be hit by another magical blast that exploded the earth around her scattering debris everywhere.

Luna smiled “HUZZAH! How many points do we receive?!” Despite her victorious cheer, Twilight blasted away the smoke with a beat of her wings and revealed that she had been unharmed by Luna's attack.

“We guess that we didn't receive as much points as we thought...” Luna said Twilight took off into the air towards her.

Soon Twilight towered over Luna “We thought you couldn't fly well ye-” she was cut off as Twilight hit her with frost magic.

Luna dodged most of it, but she hadn't been lucky on one side and now one of her wings were frozen. Twilight wasn't just going to let Luna fall, Twilight sped downward at Luna and fired off magical attacks at her which hit point blank and Luna hit the ground in a huge explosion of dirt and rock.

She lay there unmoving as Twilight gracefully touched down a few feet away from Luna. Rainbow Dash watched the entire scene and decided to finally do something.

'Time for Super Rainbow Dash!' Rainbow Dash closed her eyes and began to focus on the Element around her neck. Energy began to course around her and soon she was covered in a white aura as her fur changed from cyan to white. Her hare took the shape of burning fire and her transformation was complete.

“Hey Princess! Time to get smoked!” Rainbow yelled as she sped towards Twilight. Twilight turned toward her and as Rainbow thought that she had dashed by she found herself stuck in midair.

“What?! Why am I not moving?!” Rainbow Dash found herself caught in bright purple magic and soon knew the answer.

'Gotta move!' Rainbow Dash wiggled around in the force field and tried to free herself while using the Element of Loyalties strength, but she found herself being moved by Twilight instead.

'I'm not going to lose here!' Rainbow Dash began to raise her strength. The aura burst outward around herself as Twilight's brightened eyes widened in surprise. Then with amazing strength Rainbow burst out of the telekinetic hold and then proceeded to smash into Twilight's side.

Twilight stumbled a bit, but remained standing as Rainbow Dash flew back to try and think of a solution to Twilight's problem, 'I could make a Sonic Rainboom, maybe that will bring her back! But if she se-' Rainbow was cut off as Twilight had launched herself at Rainbow Dash while she had been thinking.

'How did she get up here so fast?!” Rainbow thought as she evaded magical blasts aimed at her. Rainbow sped into leftover clouds and tried to hide inside them.

Rainbow looked around, 'I got away! For now...' Then Rainbow felt high winds as the clouds in the whole area dissipated into nothing.

“Oh, Come on!” Rainbow yelled as she sped off away from the purple powerhouse.

Rainbow's speed increased as she finally thought she was alone, 'Maybe I got away! This time...' Rainbow trailed off as her eyes widened. Twilight waited just ahead of her in all her powerful glory.

“How did yo- Oh yeah... Teleporting...” Rainbow trailed off as several magical spells launched from behind her and locked onto Twilight.

Twilight erected a barrier which made them either bounce off, or explode harmlessly. Twilight then let down her barrier and proceeded to activate her horn once again. It sparked and then Twilight's eyes shrunk a bit.

Suddenly her body began to shrink and she closed her eyes. Twilight then fell out of the sky only for Rainbow to catch her and hold her in her hooves.

“How did she stop all of a sudden?” Rainbow questioned to nobody in particular as Luna and Celestia popped into existence beside her.

“We managed to get her in a sleep spell.” Luna said with a smile.

“I fired all those magical blasts at her, I think she was running out of energy anyway with the constant teleporting anyway.” Celestia said as Rainbow nodded dumbly.

“Okay then...” Rainbow said as she disappeared alongside Celestia and Luna.

~Canterlot Castle Infirmary~

“You're lucky she didn't suffer from Magical Backlash!” the Doctor said to Celestia who's head was looking at the floor.

“I thought she would be ready, is she alright?” Celestia asked the Doctor.

The Doctor saw the worry in Celestia's eyes and his gaze softened a bit, “Yes, she'll be on her hooves sometime around midday tomorrow. We'll take good care of her, but don't let this happen again!” he said as Celestia went inside Twilight's room.

~Somewhere in Canterlot~

A familiar Earth Pony walked carrying a case on her back. She has a dark gray mane and tail, a light gray coat and light purple eyes, and wears a pink bow-tie with a white collar. Most of the ponies walking around her didn't notice her, or just didn't care that she was there.

She walked onward until she reached the building where she would practice with the rest of her symphony, 'Finally here, let's get to the stage entrance...' she thought to herself.

She walked around the building towards the back alley and kept on until she found the door she was looking for. Several ponies were around the door and greeted her.

“Well, if it isn't Octavia Pie! Ready for the practice?” asked one of the ponies there.

“Yes, I'm always ready to play.” Octavia said as she walked up the steps towards the Guardspony and the door.

The Guardspony opened the door for Octavia and she made her way inside the building. She set down her case and then walked towards the area where the meeting took place with practiced ease.

Octavia then saw a Unicorn guarding yet another door “Agent Octavia, How's your day been?”

Octavia smiled and said “I just had to put some rogue Cockatrices back in their natural habitat, nothing new to really report. Celestia doesn't send us out to often, or as much as I'd like. I did meet a new creature a few months ago, but he's been gone for a while...' Octavia trailed off.

The Unicorn could practically hear the disappointment dripping off her voice “Maybe you'll meet him again! While your here and ready to 'practice', there is someone here to see you Agent Octavia.” the Unicorn said as he opened the doors to the secret base made by Celestia over four hundred years ago.

“Welcome back to the Celestial Bureau, Agent Octavia.”

~End of Chapter~

Author's Note

First new chapter in a long while! Sorry for the wait! Here you all go! Fans of Octavia unite as she returns to the story with my own custom backstory for her! You'll find out more about her in due time!

Season 2 Octavia the Spy and an Interrogation on Both Sides

~Raze's Journey Chapter 15~

“Welcome back to the Celestial Bureau, Agent Octavia.” The Unicorn said as Octavia smiled.

“It has been a little bit since I've been here. See you later, Agent Obsidian.” Octavia finished as she walked through the open door.

“See you later too, Agent Octavia.” With that, the door shut behind her and the room suddenly lit up with magical torches lighting the hall.

She continued to walk through the are as more torches lit up to signify her going down the hall. The other side of the corridor showed another door, but this one was special. It would use magic to scan you for the special item given to you by the Bureau itself.

If you didn't have the special item, then you would be killed by falling down a trapdoor leading to spikes at the bottom of the pit. Octavia knew to always wear the item in question. She also knew that the trapdoor had only been used twice. The ponies that suffered were spies from the griffon colony.

'Such a sad day for the ponies that actually clean that pit.' Octavia finally made it over to the door and all at once, she felt the magical power in the door scanning her body.

As it passed down her neck, it stopped at the bow she wore around it. Immediately, the door opened and allowed Octavia passage.

Octavia continued onward and found herself in a huge underground facility. Ponies bustled all around her, they moved towards the opposite rooms and other such areas in the main room that she saw below her.

Octavia frowned, 'There's more activity now then there was before... Something must be wrong, but what?'

Octavia began her walk to the right of herself and found stairs leading down into the main room that the rest of the ponies she had saw earlier were in.

A stage was in front of a long line of other ponies all standing in a crowd. One pony was on the stage at the time, “Hello New Agents, my name is Feather Song!” The crowd stomped their hooves into the ground to signify a welcome for her.

“To all the new agents here today, we have to brief you on your mission!” Feather exclaimed as a white screen rolled down behind her and a projector was turned on.

“There has been a very high percentage of alien creatures appearing as of late and the reasons are unknown, but we know where they are coming from. There's a part of the desert not to far from Appaloosa where we have set up a camp for our many agents as they prepare to send these creatures back from where they came.” Feather stopped to let that sink in.

She then hit a button and a new picture showed up. It looked like a giant lizard with sharp teeth, “These are the kinds of creatures that we continue to find all around the desert area. We always send them back to the middle of the area, but they always come back out and try to terrorize the agents. As such, they have managed to kill a few of the agents sent out.” She paused yet again to let it sink in about the dangers the ponies sitting in front of her would be facing.

Nopony moved and she continued, “This is where most of you will be going! But do not fret about the alien creature because if you watch yourself and have the item that you chose with you at all times, you'll be just fine.”

Octavia nodded in understanding and put her hoof to her trusty bow, 'I may have died on several missions without this thing.'

“The item in question actually gives you a number of abilities that you didn't have beforehand being just a normal pony. It gives you the ability to fly, greater strength, agility like no other, and several other abilities, but you are expected to not use this in any public area unless it's an emergency. Understand?” The ponies in the crowd nodded and she smiled.

“There's also a few other things that you will have to know about this mission and that will all be concluded in room 208, which isn't very far away at all. I wish all of you luck on your missions.

The ponies saluted in the audience saluted her and altogether said, “FOR EQUESTRIA!”

The crowd then dispersed toward the other room where their missions would be told to them. Octavia was the only pony standing in the room and Feather Song smiled at her.

“Agent Octavia! It's been quite a while! How was your visit to the northern border?” Feather asked Octavia.

Octavia walked over to Feather Song, “It was nice, though the Cockatrices were a little too active up there for some reason... They were stopped by me and all the stoned ponies were returned to normal.”

“You've always been good at stopping those messes before they spread too far, I'm actually a little jealous!” Feather said to Octavia.

“Trust me, it's not the greatest talent you can have, but it can be useful. Somepony was here to talk to me if I remember correctly. Feather can you point me in the right direction?” Octavia asked Feather Song.

“Yes, I was told to point you to Room 210. Over there.” Feather said as she pointed to the right of them where another hallway was.

“Thanks, Feather. See you later.” Octavia left the area toward the hallway.

“See ya!” Feather exclaimed as she too left the stage.

Octavia continued on until she found her room, 'Room 210, here I go.' Octavia opened the door and found it lit up with many torches and several chairs in a circle.

Octavia went over to the chairs and found two ponies sitting in chairs on the opposite side of the circle. They looked at her and gestured for her to sit in one of the chairs.

Octavia sat down and the other ponies smiled. The first one spoke, “It's nice to see you here Ms. Octavia, we have a mission of utmost importance for you.”

Octavia nodded, “What would that happen to be?”

“It's not so much a mission in the field, it's for Celestia herself actually.” Octavia nodded to the first pony and rolled her hoof which told her to continue.

“It's about the creature that you met over a month ago. Celestia is looking for new talent and she found one file about him, that was the file that you made and she decided that we should go talk with you and gather a bit more information on that creature.” The first pony finished quickly.

“Well, before I answer the both of you, I need to know your name's.” Octavia waited patiently for them to answer her. A few seconds passed by and they nodded.

“Of course we can tell you our names, there's no issue with that. I am Zesty Figg and the mare beside me is, Ms. Harshwinny. She's an agent plus the games inspector as you may already know.” Zesty finished as Octavia nodded.

“Since you're being honest with me, I suppose that I can divulge to you the information that I have.” Octavia said to the ponies in front of her.

“Thank-you, Agent Octavia.” Thus, they discussed what Octavia had been told and eventually it was time for them to leave.

“It's been an honor to talk with you, Agent Octavia. Celestia will be in your debt, I'm sure of it.” Zesty said as Octavia smiled.

“I'm fine with what I have, but I also have other things to do at the moment. If you'll excuse me?” Octavia asked the two.

“Of course, see you later, Agent Octavia!” With that, the games inspector and Zesty were alone with many notes, plus a long night ahead of the both of them.

~The next morning with Shining and Friends~

Shining Armor had woken up to a new day and now he had to deal with the Griffon that had been taken prisoner, which meant that the new day wasn't taking off so well.

The Griffon had been reluctant to speak about anything with his captors and has even refused food given to him from Greato.

“Can't you say anything? You were more than willing to threaten us just yesterday, but now your just... here...” Shining finished lamely.

Mace shook his head, “Really, Shining? You have to at least try and speak to him like you have authority.”

Shining frowned a bit, “But I'm the Captain!”

“Then you should inspire him to talk, there's nothing better than something that would force the Griffon to tell us what we to know.” Mace said as he played with his mace.

“So, should I threaten him or something?” Shining asked Mace.

“That's not wise, that could be considered a crime despite the fact that you are technically the leader of the force that enforces the laws... Actually, I'm not sure what your capable of doing within your jurisdiction, I'll need to study that once we get back.” Mace said to Shining.

Greato Axe walked up to the group from the woods, “Maybe we should rip off some feathers. I heard that's really painful.”

The Griffon's eyes widened and he started struggling a bit. Shining looked at him and moved closer while activating his horn, “Now really, Greato? We don't need to do either one of those things. I have a better idea!”

Mace walked over, “What idea does that happen to be, Shining?”

“I'll just use a mind reading spell, we'll get the information without any excessive violence and we can make some progress today.” Shining smiled and then made his way over to the Griffon.

The Griffon had continued to struggle and was trying to rip apart the ropes that held him down, “This won't hurt a bit, just try not to struggle to much. This horn is very sharp.” Shining said as he lowered his head and put the tip of his horn onto the skull of the Gryphon.

The Gryphon didn't like that and tried snapping at him, “Watch yourself, Gryphon!” Greato said as he activated his horn and snapped the jaws of the Gryphon shut.

Shining nodded to Greato, “Hold him until this is over.” Shining leaned down and his horn touched the head of the Gryphon.

Shining activated his horn and the world went white.

Then Shining's horn stopped glowing and he smiled, “I know why they've been here. There is a building at the top of the mountain! It's inside the top of the mountain, but something turned them away and made them guard the place.”

Mace looked at the gryphon, “Thanks for cooperating, we'll let you go now...” he stepped forward and prepared to loosen the ropes, but then he felt something strange coming off the gryphon.

The Gryphon's eyes rolled up and changed color to bright gold as the Gryphon stopped moving altogether. He looked at the group of ponies around him and smiled.

“Good bye...” Then a terrible crunching sound was heard as the Gryphon's skull turned in three-hundred sixty degrees. His body then fell limp before Mace had a chance to say anything.

Shining and Greato had watched the scene and their eyes had widened in shock. Mace looked horrified at the sudden turn of events, “That wasn't supposed to happen! What was that?!” Mace questioned loudly as he backed away from the dead body.

Shining looked at the body before them and turned to look up at the top of the mountain, “I guess that the answer lies up there! We need to go there now!”

Greato nodded, “Let's do this!”

Mace despite his uncertainty nodded, “I suppose that it's time to go.” The three ponies nodded and then galloped up the trail with determined looks upon their faces.

~The Throne Room in Canterlot Castle~

Celestia's mind was getting a feeling she hadn't felt in a long while. This feeling began to form into a thought and an ominous power seemed to reel itself through the shield she had made so long ago to protect herself from attacks that would go within herself.

'Somethings wrong... I don't remember ever having this feeling before...' Celestia got up from her throne and trotted down the hall and went for the only other pony who could help her with issues of the mind.

'Maybe Luna can help me...' Celestia continued through different halls until she found Luna's room.

She opened the door and galloped inside, “TIA?!”

Blankets were thrown up over Luna and another pony as Luna picked up several pillows with her magic. She then launched said pillows at Celestia which smacked off her gently.

“Lulu? And is that? Applejack?” Celestia asked as the other side of Luna that was completely covered up poked her head out from under the covers.

“That ain't a problem, is it?” Applejack asked the red faced Solar Regent.

Celestia shook her head, “I'm glad that Luna has found love, but I never even expected this...” Celestia trailed off as something crashed to the side of her.

A pot had been smashed as wings had flared out from a pony standing beside her, “Ms. Dash? What are you doing up?”

“I- I- I w-was l-looking for AJ.” The red faced pegasus stuttered as Luna smiled.

“You both seem interested, look at your wings Tia!” Luna said to Celestia who also looked at her sides. Indeed her wings had were high in the air.

The guards outside the door couldn't do anything, but they tried to turn to their respective left and right to try and catch a glimpse. Needless to say, they failed.

Celestia gulped as Luna got up from the bed and walked over to the both of them, “How would you both like to join us?”

Celestia was a second away from doing something she would regret and so she closed her eyes. Then she opened them. She found herself in bed and a loud tapping sound coming from her door.

'Just a dream, nothing more...' Celestia sighed and then got up.

'Time to start the day.'

Just a weird chapter to tie in a bow. It's a present for all these new followers! You're all awesome people! :D

Season 2 Ancient Temple and the Power of Apples

~Raze's Journey Chapter 16~

Shining galloped towards the cave that he had saw through the mind of the Gryphon, 'This is it! The answers to our problems and theirs!'

Close behind Shining were Mace and Greato who charged forward despite any warnings they had not received.

“We need to turn off the path from here! The main opening is not directly at the top from what I've seen in my mind! The temple is located inside the mountain, but the opening is so far from where I thought it would be! The Dragon Ball signal came from the center, but I have no idea how far up or the place is! So let's hurry! Double Time!” Shining exclaimed as he continued to pick up speed.

Mace looked ahead, “You mean that we would have been stuck looking on this mountain forever?! Whoever made this place really knew how to hide stuff!” he asked while they charged off the main path of the mountain.

Greato followed from the rear of the group, “We're finally going to do something exciting! How far do we have till we get that temple!?”

Shining looked back with a smile, “Not far! I'm actually surprised that the Gryphons found it at all!”

The group kept going until they made it to a small open area. They looked around and saw that the woods above them were so heavily bound together that it covered anything that could be seen from the sky.

“Wow! Is this the area, Shining?” Mace asked him to which he nodded.

“Yes, this is the area that I saw in the leader's eyes.” Shining stated as they all looked upon a door.

Mace walked up to the door and examined it. He saw strange markings and knew them well, 'Ancient Equis? Who would have made a temple and used this dead language? A better way to phrase that would be... Who would know that language so well? Only a few of the worlds greatest scholars know it including myself... I must know what it says!'

Mace activated his horn and a glow found it's way over the bag that Shining had been carrying with them. He took the bag and placed it before himself.

Shining looked confused, “What do you need that for?”

Mace didn't look up from the bag, “I need a book that I took along for some light reading from the Royal Library.”

Greato shook his head, “You and light reading? I'd like to see what you consider to be that!”

Mace smiled, “I found it!” He dug both of his hooves into the bag's innards and began to pull with all his might.

'Just gotta get it out of there!' Mace thought as he saw the top of the book poke out of the top of the bag.

'Just a bit more!' He drew more of the book out of the bag until it finally popped free. It the ground with a resounding slam and made an indent in the earth.

“That's light reading!? It looks ten inches thick!” Greato yelled in shock.

Indeed, this book was large even by normal standards and reading it looked like it would take over ten years of an average life away.

Mace smiled once again, “I read books like this in a weekend. I always love to cover topics multiple times! I've read this one fifteen times in my life!”

Shining shook his head, “You're just like Twily! Brains and all!”

Mace didn't answer to that as he opened the book before himself, 'Ancient languages... Search, Ancient Equis...' Mace flipped through the pages fast with his magic helping.

“Ah-ha! Found it!” Mace exclaimed in joy as he picked up the entire book in his magic and sat in front of the door.

“Found what?” Greato asked Mace.

“Shoosh! I'm hunting ancient languages...” Mace trailed off as he went to his happy place.

Greato blew steam through his ears, “Don't you dare tell me to shut it!” He pulled out his axe and proceeded to attack Mace only to be stopped by Shining.

“Leave him to his work, we'll be doing something interesting soon! I promise, now put away the axe, Greato.” Shining finished sternly.

Greato begrudgingly put away his weapon with a bit muttering, “I'll get you for that one, Mace... A drinking contest soon...”

Mace looked over the ancient book and back at the door for a few minutes while Greato and Shining entertained themselves by playing Blackjack.

“Alright, Greato! That last card has to be an ace! Flip it!” The first round ended with Greato getting eighteen and Shining had two fives at the moment.

Greato smiled, “We'll see about that!” He flipped the card over and indeed it was a two.

“WHAT?! There's no way that I just lost in Blackjack! You cheater!” Shining yelled in confusion.

“Cheater?! There's no way that I would cheat!” Greato said as he stood up and revealed that he was sitting on all the aces from within the deck.

“You did cheat!” Shining roared as Greato started to sweat.

“I have no idea how those got there! I swear!” Greato exclaimed as Shining snorted in anger.

“I'll destroy you!” Shining yelled as Mace jumped between them.

“I've decoded the message on the door if you're curious to know it.” Mace said as Shining shook his head.

“That cheater behind you has earned his horseshoe! Right in his as-”

“Really? Over a game of blackjack? Shining, don't sink so low. I'm sure you'll beat him next time, but we need to focus on the mission first.” Mace said as they both nodded.

“Sorry about that, Shining.” Greato said as he put out his hoof.

“No problem, Greato.” Shining said as he put his hoof to Greato's own hoof.

“Now, come over here and bear with me while I explain what this place is.” Mace said as he was followed over to the door by Shining and Greato.

Shining and Greato sat down behind Mace, eagerly awaiting what he was going to say. Mace looked at them to make sure they were listening.

“This door leads into a temple that you already know of, Shining. I have found that this temple was named, “The House of the Lost Soul”. This place is supposed to carry something dark and powerful inside it's fortified mountain walls. Though I'm not sure what is inside, I'm sure it must be very important.” Mace said to his audience.

“Okay then... Does it say anything else?” Shining asked Mace.

“Yes, the inscription on the first door to the left says the name of the place. The second however is a message that appears to have been written by a distressed individual. It says, “I'm so sorry that this happened, Mythic. I want you to know that as your parent, I will always love you, even if I never remember you in this lifetime. With love....” The name was so faded that I couldn't identify it, it looked as if the name had been purposely scratched out.” Mace said to the group.

Shining thought it over for a moment, 'Who could have wrote the message on the second door? I can't find out right now, but maybe we can open the doors ourselves.'

Mace turned back to the doors, “We should open the doors now.”

Shining nodded, “Greato and Mace, Let's do this!” Shining powered up his horn as his comrades did the same thing.

Their magics combined and slowly, they began to pry the doors apart. Inch by inch they crawled outward toward the outside of the walls they defended. Shining, Greato, and Mace gritted their teeth.

'This door must have been enchanted somehow, but by who?' Shining thought as he felt the enchantments start to break under the force of three different magics.

Mace pulled as hard as he could muster, 'The enchantments on the doors have been weakened by time.' Mace's eyes opened widely in realization.

'Three hundred years ago was when these enchantments were placed! Who could have placed such powerful enchantments so long ago and how did a measly group of Gryphons get in to such a well-guarded place?!' Mace questioned as the doors began to give up more ground.

Greato looked in anger as he strained to pull the door apart, 'I won't be beaten by a door!'

And then the door opened!

~Within the Temple~

'So they have arrived...' A being thought to itself as it meditated.

'It has been so long since a pony has been to my burial ground, I will commend them once I am released from my prison....' The being spread his ancient power around the temple.

'With this, I can watch them from any point rather than just the front of my temple. Once they make it to the top where I am, I'll be able to use them to my hearts content...' It got up from it's meditation and stood tall.

'I can finally show them my pain. It's all because of her, my mother... I will get the revenge that I deserve soon enough...'

The being looked at the ponies who had opened the door to his sanctum.

'Now, come forth and free me.'

~In Canterlot~

On a balcony on the side of Canterlot Castle sat two ponies that talked of small things and big changes in their lives. They knew each other very well and liked to catch up over tea in the afternoon. One of these ponies was our agent, Octavia.

She was feeling alright until a cold wind blew onto her fur. She felt herself ruffle up and knew that something was wrong.

Octavia looked up to the sky and shivered, 'It's cold all of a sudden... What is this feeling that I'm getting?'

“Is there something wrong Agent Octavia?” Asked another familiar voice.

“Commander Celestia, there is nothing wrong that I know of.” Octavia said as Celestia shook her head.

“Don't play dumb, I know that you felt it too. It was the winds of a country far to our north that seem to have shown themselves in Canterlot. But that would be impossible considering the fact that it came from the east would prove my point...” Celestia trailed off as she took a sip of tea.

“What is so cold that comes from the east?” Octavia asked as she picked up her tea and sipped on it.

“I'm not sure.” Celestia finished with another sip of tea.

“Then we cannot dwell on it.” Octavia dismissed the conversation and Celestia agreed with her.

“Yes, it's probably not as important as what's going on at the training field right now.” Celestia said as she looked in that direction.

“What is going on over there?” Octavia asked her Commander.

“The other Elements are awakening their hidden powers. Applejack is the one releasing her hidden power today. I've seen her control roots and use them as powerful weapons, but she can barely control the strength she has gained, I worry for her safety.” Celestia said with another sip of tea.

“I'm sure that she will learn to control her power soon enough, you should give her some time and then they'll be on to the next Element soon enough.” Octavia said with a smile.

“I hope do hope that you're right. Luna is with them right now as a small precaution. She seems to be getting a bit more serious than usual, I hope she goes easy on those six.” Celestia said with a small smile.

“With any luck, she's not.” Octavia finished with a giggle.

~The Training Field~

“NO FAIR APPLEJACK! DON'T TURN THAT WAY WHILE RIDING THOUS ROOT!” Luna roared as a crashing sound was heard and ponies were sent flying everywhere.

Applejack couldn't hear anypony beyond her aura and it's strength was truly incredible. It blasted around her body and even though she was far above the earth, it followed her around.

Rainbow Dash went into her Super Form and tried to catch Applejack, but was thrown away by the root every time she got close enough to get her.

“Applejack! Control yourself!” Rainbow Dash yelled as she was thrown off by yet another random attack.

Applejack actually heard Rainbow. She turned to her and then opened her mouth. It began to glow and a ball of energy appeared inside of her mouth. She then let it loose onto Rainbow Dash.

The attack spiraled downward onto her only to be blocked by Luna and her shield of impenetrable moon magic.

Super Applejack's strength showed she stamped her hoof on the roots and the shock waves traveled down and into the training area where cracks began to form in the high grounds of the mountain.

Luna gaped at the strength of the Element of Honesty, “Thou truly has been given quite the gift!”

Rainbow Dash smirked, “Yes! She's really strong, but we need to stop her now! She might take out the whole city!”

“Where is Twilight Sparkle?! She could help us!” Luna said as Rainbow shook her head.

“I haven't been able to find her at all! She only returns at night and says something about studying!” Rainbow yelled as she kicked off the ground once more and prepared to attack Applejack from the sky.

Luna followed her into the sky and Applejack saw them coming her way. Applejack's aura burst outward and roots crawled out the side of the mountain. Luna almost got caught, but managed to get out with a burst of power from her horn.

Rainbow used a burst of her own rainbow energy to cut through the offending roots using the air around her self as blades. They fell to the grown with heavy thuds while Rainbow burst out without a scratch on her body.

“Time for the Sonic Rainbash! This going to hurt you Applejack, but I've got no choice!” Rainbow pulled her wings up and began to climb in altitude.

Luna attempted to attack at a closer range with magical beams of powerful moonlight, “Mighty Applejack! Cease thy attacks or suffer the full strength of the moon!” Luna yelled as Applejack attacked her back with full force.

She fired several mouth beams in rapid succession at Luna and though she dodged most of them, one managed to hit it's mark. The explosion was large and a smoke cloud burst out from it in midair. Luna hit the ground at top speed and the impact sent dust flying into the air.

Applejack prepared to fire a bigger attack, but then she was interrupted by a large gust of wind. She looked up and saw a large rainbow colored cone coming from Rainbow Dash.

“This is the Sonic Rainbash!” Rainbow yelled as her energy flowed around her body like a cone. She then made impact on Applejack in seconds.

Rainbow took Applejack with her into the ground which created an explosion larger than any other previously seen by the ponies around. The large roots that had been summoned by Applejack earlier were completely destroyed in the impact.

Minutes passed after the explosion, smoke cleared up and reveal a large hole that went all the way into the forest below Canterlot. More dust and smoke spread from the bottom where trees used to be standing. The only thing left was a dusty crater.

Several soldiers moved in after the powerful shock waves were done and they made to get Luna up and then sent several pegasus guards to get Rainbow Dash and Applejack.

The pegasi guards flew towards the crash scene and touched the earth. They nodded to each other and began to walk towards the middle while looking for both of the ponies that crashed.

They neared the middle soon enough and then they felt the earth around themselves move a bit. They looked down and tested the ground with their hooves.

Then the earth moved again and began to start shaking violently. Rocks began to break the surface as a loud yell was heard.

“RAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHH!”

The guards opened their wings and took to the sky once they heard the bone chilling yell. Smoke blasted away from the middle of the clearing as the middle became completely visible.

The guards saw Applejack in her ascended form pushing Rainbow Dash into the ground.

“She lost her ascended form!” One of the guards shouted.

“Applejack is still conscious after that?!” Another guard exclaimed.

“We need to go get backup! If we don't, Rainbow Dash is going to be killed!” The third guard yelled as he blasted towards Canterlot at top speed.

The third guard looked back down at the other two guards, “Stop Applejack in any way that you possibly can!”

The guards that were left behind looked up at the retreating guard, “How could you do this to us?! We can't handle them!”

“He's right! What chance do we have?!” The second guard yelled once again.

Applejack looked down at Rainbow Dash and prepared to finish her off once and for all. She charged up energy in her open maw and the light began to spread across the clearing.

Just as she was about to fire it, the guards smashed into her side and knocked her off balance. She stumbled while one of them picked up Rainbow. The other guard stayed and shivered in his horseshoes as Applejack gave him an angry glare.

“Oh to hay with this!” The guard yelled as he turned around and ran away.

But he was intercepted by a root and tripped, 'Owww...' He turned his head upwards to see Applejack charging up an attack.

He turned back and closed his eyes while awaiting his imminent death, 'This is it! So ends the life of, Rasturf Fetlock!'

Applejack fired the beam and another pony hit the ground in front of the downed guardspony. He smiled and deflected the beam with just the side of his hoof.

The beam flew towards another mountain not to far away and hit the side of it. An explosion tore the mountain apart on it's side. Rocks fell to the ground as smoke spread from the wounded area.

The pony who had blocked the beam in question looked at Applejack with untethered determination, “Looks like you've lost complete control of yourself... I'll fix that!”

Rasturf opened his eyes shakily and looked at the pony standing in front of his own body, “No way... It can't be... Vladimir?! The Second in Command?!”

Vladimir turned to the pony behind himself, “Well, yes I am. You have a problem with that?”

“No Sir!” Rasturf exclaimed as Vladimir nodded.

“Then get back up to Canterlot right away!” Vladimir stayed looking at the guard and then he moved slightly to the left.

A beam ripped past where his body had just been, “That was very rude of you, Applejack.” He turned to face Applejack, “I'll have to get you for that.”

Applejack was already charging more energy in her maw as she closed her mouth and trapped the energy inside it. She then began to chew the energy and Vladimir watched curiously.

'What does she plan to do with that?' He watched until she stopped.

She then puckered her lips up and began to rapid fire energy blasts. Vladimir moved slightly to the left and right as the beams sailed past his where his skull had been at different intervals of time. They all exploded in the background as he began to walk forward.

'This should be simple, she's lost her own grip on reality at this point, so all I need to do is get her to fight me. Shouldn't be too hard...' his thought trailed off as he began to gallop towards the raging mare.

Applejack noticed his movements and she too began her gallop, but she was far faster than she ever was in her normal form. Her movements couldn't be seen by Vladimir as he found her about to kick his side, he quickly moved his hoof to block her back leg kick.

Applejack's eyes widened as her kick was deflected by his front hoof. She was even more surprised when his wings spread out and began to glow.

Applejack was surrounded a by a glowing bubble of pegasi magic as she began to struggle against it's hold. She beat the bubble for all she was worth, but couldn't manage to get out.

Vladimir smiled, “If you had any control over that power, the you might have given me a run for my bits, too bad...” he trailed off as he began to get rid of the air in the bubble.

Applejack struggle as she tried to escape the now airless bubble, but try as she might, her power began to fade and then she was unconscious. Her orange aura dissipated from her body and her hair fell around her neck.

Vladimir opened the bubble and she fell to the ground, 'I'm sure that this won't be the last time that we meet.”

Vladimir then turned to find Luna touching down, “Thou hast stopped her rampage?” she asked Vladimir.

“Yes, now you should probably get to the hospital because she needs some treatment, I'm sure of that.” Vladimir said as he spread his wings and took off into the sky.

Luna activated her horn and picked up Applejack. She set her on her own back and then flew up to Canterlot.

'We sincerely hope that everyday won't be like this...'

Luna had no idea how that statement would affect the next few hours...

Finally, the next chapter of the Raze's Journey Saga! I hope you all enjoy it because I enjoyed writing it. I'm also sorry about the slow updates. Really! I am! :c

Season 2 The End of the Shining Quest

Raze's Journey Chapter 17

Luna sat outside the hospital room containing Rainbow Dash and Applejack. They had just been stabilized and we're now undergoing treatments to fix several injuries that happened in the battle against Applejack.

Luna sighed, 'If We had been keeping the training area safe, then this wouldn't have happened...'

Luna messed with her pet moon rock she had found on the moon, “Dearest Skippy, what would thou do in this situation?”

Skippy seemed to smile and say, 'Your Mom and Dad are dead!'

Luna looked at the rock and then put it down, 'We feel so alone...'

Luna noticed the sound of hooves on the stone floors of the castle and saw Celestia making her way inside. Celestia smiled when she saw Luna and decided to sit next to her.

“Rough day, Lulu?” Celestia asked her little Sister.

“Yes, We have seen Lady Applejack's powers and felt the destructive capability of it. We are unsure if we can handle another ascension alone. Could we ask for thy help the next time?” Luna asked her big sister.

“Of course, Lulu.” Celestia said as Luna leaned into her.

Celestia was surprised at this, but then smiled and held her close, 'You must be so tired, sleep well, Lulu.'

Celestia looked toward a clock on the opposite wall, 'Twilight hasn't been back since she left yesterday, I wonder if the agents I've sent out have found her yet...'

Just as Celestia had finished her thought she saw Octavia galloping towards Celestia, “An agent has found Twilight and sent us a report stating that she's training her powers in a secluded area, should we move in if anything goes wrong?”

Celestia shook her head, “I believe that she knows what she is doing, but I do want you to watch over her and report to me if she has any breakthroughs.”

“Yes, Princess!” Octavia left in a hurry as Celestia looked down at her sister that snored softly while leaning on her still.

~The Mountain Temple~

Shining and his group trudged onward through the temple with their horns lighting up the area. They were passing through a corridor filled with ancient runes and the walls seemed to be spreading out as they made their way further inside.

Mace looked around with fascination, “This is quite amazing! I've never seen a temple like this be so untouched by modern hooves. We must be the first to set foot here in over three hundred years or so.”

Shining looked over at Mace, “That doesn't seem like such a long time.”

“Maybe not to you, Shining. For me on the other hoof, it's incredible!” Mace finished while continuing to look at all the runes they passed by.

Greato smirked, “You don't need to share your nerdy fantasies with us, I'm sure your capable of keeping them to yourself.”

Mace shook his head, “You need to learn to appreciate things like this, you're seeing stuff that other ponies would kill to be able to look at such things like this.”

Greato chuckled, “Sure. Just keep the amazing sights to yourself and leave the real exciting parts to me.”

Shining looked at them both, “The corridor stopped, I think we're in the first room of the temple.”

Mace immediately left his conversation with Greato to stare in awe as Shining lit of up torches with magical fire to brighten up the place.

Mace was at a loss for words, “...”

Greato was taking in the sights, but not nearly as invested in them, “Well, this is boring...”

Shining was looking around and saw a large spiral staircase leading upward. He then looked around and found that the runes on the walls were beginning to change colors. They had been a deep golden at first, but were changing into a vibrant sky blue.

The process of the change seemed to be slow, 'That's strange.' Shining thought to himself as he stepped toward the staircase.

Shining stepped onto the first stair and then went up the next one, he found nothing wrong and decided to go up faster. Then the stairs folded downward and flew down the stairs and hit the floor with a loud crash.

“I should have seen this coming!” Shining said as he picked himself up.

Mace looked over at the booby trapped stairs, “I'm pretty sure that Daring Do has done the staircase trap at least 3 times in the series so far.”

Greato nodded, “Actually, it was four times.”

Mace's irises shrank a little, “You... read?”

Shining got up on that one too, “Seriously? You do?”

Greato shook his head quickly, “NO! I mean, that stuff is for Brainy AKA No Fight over here!” He finished while pointing his left hoof at Mace.

Mace and Shining began to laugh at Greato's expense all while ignoring the lights coming from the hieroglyphs as they neared the center of the room at the other side.

“Stop laughing!” Greato said while stomping his front hoofs.

Mace and Shining agreed silently to quit at Greato's expense. They both wiped a tear from their eye.

“Alright, we'll quit with the laughing.” Shining said as Mace nodded.

“Yeah, now we need to figure out whats going on with all the blue light.” Mace said as the light encompassed the entire room.

The light from the middle of the room beamed upward onto a gem that started to glow. The gem seemed to be gathering energy until it shot a beam at a mirror like surface on the left side of the large room.

The light traveled downward from the mirror and made several lines in a row of hieroglyphs. The light grew brighter, a loud latch was heard as it moved and released the doors.

The place began to rumble as larger doors began to open to their left. The doors made loud scraping noises as they were seemingly pushed open from the other side. As it opened the creature behind the door revealed itself.

A rock golem made up of smaller rocks stomped it's way out of the other room and seemed to stare at the three ponies.

“What is that thing?!” Mace asked as Greato charged at it.

“Greato! Stop! We don't know what this thing can do!” Shining yelled as he was pointedly ignored.

“Whatever it is, it's done!” Greato yelled as he took out his battle axe.

It floated beside him as he got closer to the rocky beast. He activated frost magic and covered the axe in ice as he prepared to slash the creature in question.

The golem responded quicker than he had expected by pounding the ground with it's left foot and making rocks come out of the ground to surround Greato.

Greato was stopped in his tracks from the sudden rocks and then the golem raised both of it's arms and a small ball of electricity seemed to be charging inside the outstretched arms.

Shining saw the ball and decided to charge forward despite not knowing what could happen. He made his magical blade and charged the golem himself.

Mace had decided to go for his own side as he drew his weapon and began to swing it around in his magic. He charged it up with ice magic and started into an immediate gallop at the golem.

The golem had changed targets and was now aiming for Shining. The golem fired the fully charged ball of pure lightning as Shining threw up a shield around himself. The energy ball clashed with the shield and began to struggle against Shining's magical strength.

Mace smashed the side of the golem with his ice magic powered mace and it spread onto the rocks of the golem's side. Greato broke out of his prison with a small magical burst and then galloped at the golem with his axe aglow with fire.

Shining felt his shield beginning to crack under the pressure of the attack. He started to sweat as exhaustion set in. His strong body shook as he tried to well up a much greater amount of determination from his body.

Shining's thoughts were racing as he came up with multiple ways of getting out of his situation. Shining's decision was made from that he already knew of magical or other energy attacks.

'Just gotta be fast!' Shining began to put all his strength into the magic coming from his horn.

The shield seemed to nearly rupture, but instead changed to seem like it was catching the energy, 'Give it a little bump!'

Shining made the shield pop upwards and sent the energy spiraling toward the ceiling where it seemed to be absorbed back into the blue light. Shining let down his shield while panting in exhaustion.

Shining slumped down a bit as he tried to gather more magic back into his horn. He heard several small explosions as Mace started to fire off magical blasts from his horn. He also noticed the explosions were being absorbed by the ground around them and transferred to the gem.

The golem managed to break free of the ice and began to defend himself from Greato, but found that it was a bit slower than him.

Greato had made multiple slices at the Golem with his burning axe, but he finally made a strong dent in the creature's defense by melting off its right arm.

It fell to the ground and sunk into it. Greato went back in for another swing and fell to the ground when he felt something grab his back left leg. He looked back and saw the arm sticking out of the floor.

He changed his attack to hit the arm only for to feel his axe being grabbed from the other side by the golem itself. The golem threw the axe away and made the ground melt around the leg currently being held. It then solidified around the same leg and the golem's arm returned to it's body.

Greato tried to move, but found himself stuck, “How do you kill this thing?!” He shouted as Mace galloped toward it with his Mace glowing with icy magic once more.

“I'll try to finish it!” Mace yelled to Greato.

The golem felt the icy power as it smashed into it's back. The ice spread over and around the mid-section of the body while also covering the head.

Shining saw several flashing dots going off from the front of the golem and picked himself up from the ground. Shining summoned his sword of arcane magic and swung it around through the air.

He galloped at the golem with a little difficulty as it began to charge up energy of it's own. The electric ball began to form as Shining picked up the pace a bit with the extra momentum keeping him from collapsing.

The electric ball reached it's maximum power and was fired at Shining directly. The ball neared him fast as Shining place his arcane sword at the front of himself.

Mace galloped from the side and used his magic to enhance the mace he brandished. He smashed into the ball with all his strength which knocked the energy into the wall opposite of Shining and Mace.

Shining finally reached the golem and stabbed straight through the middle of the flashing lights. The excess magic ripped through it's back and Shining collapsed as the energy burnt out.

The ground began to shake as the golem started to back up from Shining. Mace saw it start to chip up and finally, cracks began to form.

Then all of it's body parts broke into pieces and burst apart themselves. Mace rushed over to Shining.

“Shining? You still here?” Mace asked his Captain as he got a small nod in confirmation.

“Check on, Greato before me.” Shining said to him as Mace nodded.

Mace made his way over to Greato and saw the hoof stuck in the ground, “I'll just get that undone real quick.” His horn activated and the ground seemed to melt again as the hoof was pulled out.

The ground went back to normal after the spell was done.

Greato breathed a sigh of relief, “Thanks, Mace.”

“No problem.” Mace turned to Shining's direction and saw that he was standing up.

Mace shook his head, “You should lay down for a moment, you've definitely earned that!”

Shining looked at Mace with defiance, “I have to keep going for all of us, besides, we're close to what we came here for!”

Mace noticed the blue light was fading from the walls and turned his head to follow the direction it was flowing towards. He noticed the blue gem from earlier as it began to extract itself from the wall. The gem was completely out and began to levitate towards the three ponies before dropping at their hooves unceremoniously.

Shining activated his horn and picked up the gem. He could feel the magic coursing through it, 'It feels like all of our magic is combined with something else... So strange...'

Suddenly, Shining felt his shoulder being tapped. He turned to Greato, “What?”

“Are we going to continue now? I really want to see what this gems about.” Greato said as Shining nodded.

“Yeah, you're right. Let's go.” Shining said to Greato and Mace.

They all got up and began making their way up the stairs. Shining carried the gem in his magic the whole way up while Mace and Greato walked behind him.

The second room opened up before them and seemed to be just a stairway. Shining looked around expecting to see arrow heads sticking out the walls, or some other kind of crazy trap, but he found nothing suspicious. He continued onward with a shrug.

Greato and Mace had waited to receive the command to gallop, but heard nothing from their fearless leader. So they just went along with it.

Before long they would stand before a large stone door.

Shining turned to the rest of his group, “Well, this has to be it.”

Mace nodded, “Yes, I'd say that the key hole is right in the middle of the door. It also seems to be where the Dragon Ball is, but I'm not sure how the Gryphons would get back there. They would have had to be stronger than the golem back there. Something seems a bit suspicious.”

Greato pulled out his axe, “I'm ready to fight whatever happens to be on the other side.”

Shining turned and looked up at the door, “Well, here goes.”

He floated the gem to the middle of the door and pushed it into the slot in the stone. Immediately a loud rumbling began to shake the entire temple as magical energy began to pour into the door. Several mechanisms in the walls seemed to start clicking as and then loudly smash on the insides of the lock mechanisms.

The door began shine blue as it started to open. The door rose into the air as light pervaded the area around the group. They put their hooves up to their eyes to avoid the blinding themselves as the door reached the top and finally stopped after being locked back in place.

The shining light began to die down until it shown in only the middle portion of the room and Shining was the first to look inside that third room.

The light itself seemed to be forming into a body. Shining watched as it formed before himself. It started from the bottom and then began rising up as light particles began to make an alien form that nopony had ever seen before except in books.

“Is that a monkey?” Greato asked the others.

Mace shook his head, “I don't think it's exactly like a monkey... It Seems too advanced.”

Shining looked at the being as other features like his face began to form and clothes formed around his body. He seemed to be wearing armor and long sword upon his back. His hair was golden and covered by a helmet as the orb below it broke to pieces.

The shattered glass dissolved into nothing as the form gained substance. It was now physical and a grand sight to behold as golden light shimmered outward around the bipedal creature.

It opened it's eyes and looked upon the group before itself, “Hello.”

~The Abrupt End~

Author's Note

Part 1 of 6 has finally begun.

Season 2 The Enemy is Revealed

Raze's Journey Chapter 18

“Hello.”

Greato raised his axe to the being, “What are you?!”

Shining looked at Greato really fast, “Put down the axe, Greato.”

Greato looked at Shining and then the creature standing before them. He lowered the weapon gradually and then put it onto his back.

Shining then looked back at the being, “Ummm... Hello to you, errr...”

The creature smiled, “My name is, Mythic. I already know all of you.”

Mace frowned, “How do you know us already?”

Mythic smiled in an eerie fashion, “I've been watching you all since you arrived at this mountain and I've observed every single action you've all taken since that time.”

Shining arched an eye, “Well, that's unsettling...”

Mythic shook his head, “No, it's not. It's called watching the specimens as they grow from a distance. I was brought up to be tactful when engaging my enemies.”

Greato heard the last word and instantly looked around, “Enemies? Where?!”

Greato turned around as he finally caught on, “You don't mean us, right?”

Mythic turned his back on them and bent down to pick up the glowing sphere, “Of course I was talking about you three, aren't you the ones who came here looking for this object?”

He turned to them with an orange glowing ball in his hand. Shining's eyes widened alongside Mace's and Greato's.

Mace's eyes glowed upon seeing it, “That's exactly what we came here for!”

Mythic looked at Mace and smiled, “Then I shall place it before you.”

He set the ball on the floor before Mace, “Go on and take it...” He trailed off into an uncomfortable silence that continued for a little while.

Mace gulped and smiled, “Well, I guess I'll take it.”

Mythic nodded, “Go on.”

Mace reached out with his magic and just as he did, he found himself being knocked out of the way as a blast of air sent Shining into a wall. Shining hit the floor and so did Mace who was in shock at the moment.

“Oh... I missed. I guess that I won't get that passing grade.” Mythic finished with a cheerful voice.

Greato had been watching the whole time and hadn't seen a single movement from Mythic.

Greato looked at Mythic with a little surprise, 'Was that magic?!'

Mythic turned to Greato, “You seem to be left out! Would you like to play? Or would you rather have the item? I myself, am quite attached to doing both.”

Greato took out his axe and summoned fire around it, “I'll get you for that!”

He charged Greato and swung his axe downward with great magical power only for Mythic to catch it easily. He then flattened out his other palm and stabbed it toward Greato only for a blue shield to be hit instead. The shield cracked upon impact and burst apart, but the deadly attack had still been averted.

Mythic turned to Shining, “You shouldn't get in the way of another person's play time, you might get hurt!”

Shining coughed and red blood spattered onto the floor, “Aghhh... You might have knocked me down for a second, but whatever this is, it's just beginning!”

Mythic looked at Shining with a small smile, “Yes, this is the beginning of my return and you'll have the honors of helping me get back into the spirit of things.”

Greato moved away from Mythic, “Shining, this thing is something else!”

Mace shook his head to clear his mind and immediately began to analyze Mythic with his magic. He saw golden energy all around and inside him. The energy felt very familiar.

“Shining! There's something about his magic! It's Celestia's magic!” Mace yelled as Shining's eyes widened.

“Really?!” Shining saw Mythic give a wider smile.

“Maybe it is, who knows? Maybe it's just my power.” Mythic finished as he started walking over to Shining.

“You're the biggest threat in the room, the other two's magic are just a bit lower than your output, so you're the first one that I shall take revenge on.” Mythic said calmly as Shining backed up from him and summoned a powerful shield.

“Stay back!” Shining commanded as Mythic continued to walk forward.

As soon as Mythic's left foot touched the ground where Shining had been previously a sudden magical disturbance shot from the floor and seemed to surround Mythic's body in a tower of white light.

“Gotcha! Now everyone!” Shining commanded his group as Mace and Greato prepared their attacks by combining lightning into their weapons.

They then brought down both upon Mythic who stopped them with his own golden shield. The weapons broke in half from the amount of force that had been placed upon them.

Mythic pointed his palm at Mace and Greato, “Your weapons must have been enchanted by a lazy magician.”

With that, Greato and Mace were sent flying back by a great magic that they couldn't fight. They landed next to Shining with a thud.

Shining looked down at them and back up at Mythic who had started looking around at the temple walls, “I’m glad you three came when you did, I was starting to lose faith in the idea that I could escape this dusty old temple.”

Shining said nothing while he helped his comrades up. His thinking process was more distressing than the current situation they were in.

‘He just stopped all of us in the span of a minute, I’ve got to figure out something!’ Shining’s inward thoughts were not shown on his rough outside.

Mace and Greato were already on their hooves, but they didn’t move in any direction. They turned to Shining instead, “We need a plan!” They both said at the same time.

Shining nodded, “Yes, I know, but I can only think of one at this point!"

Shining quickly brought them together and whispered his plan to them quickly. Mythic watched them as they finally broke apart.

Shining looked over at Mace, "Do you understand?"

Mace arched his left eye, “But this situation doesn’t seem to call for it! We haven’t even started to really fight! Eve-”

Shining interrupted him, “No, we have to send one of us off and since I’m staying, it’s gotta be one of you.”

Greato nodded, “I’ll stay. Me and you are the strongest magic users here, Shining.”

Mace looked at them in disbelief, "What are you two saying?! I can't abandon you both! We fight together!"

Shining smiled, "You'll be helping us finish the mission by taking the spheres to Celestia! But me and Greato are going to get that last one first!"

Mythic watched them with amusement, "Are you all finished talking amongst yourselves? I'm growing bored over here."

Greato turned to Mythic with a look of fierce determination, "We're about to take away that boredom! So get ready!"

Greato began to charge up his horn as the magic started to surround his legs which revealed glowing chains.

Mythic looked at him with wide eyes, "What's this?"

Greato's magic began to amplify as the chains began to break around his hooves. His muscles grew a bit and his horn extended outward.

An aura of bright fiery red magic surrounded Greato, "I've broken the seal on my real magic power! I was fighting hard before, but now I don't even need the axe, I can create my own!"

Within seconds a big red axe made out of arcane magic appeared behind Greato. It seemed to be aflame with power as the ground broke into smaller pieces around it’s very essence.

Mythic’s eyes narrowed and he smiled, “Are you the only one who can do this?”

Shining smirked, “Nope.”

Shining began to concentrate as his horn sparked with bright blue electricity, ‘C'mon body, you can keep going and break the chains!’

His magic revealed his own chains binding his hoofs, ‘That’s it!’ The chains strained against his magic as his magical aura spread outward.

Mace was preparing to break his own magical chains, but he was shaking. Tears were starting to bud as he realized that he would have to leave his comrades.

Mace watched as Shining’s chains break and his aura eclipsed Greato’s own by a slightly bigger margin. Shining’s muscles appeared to have doubled in size as did his body.

‘His magical might is even stronger than I knew originally!’ Mace thought to himself as Shining began to bring down his power output.

“Sorry, it’s been a while since I’ve had a maximum reserve of magic to tap into like this. I’d say that my body has improved it’s own condition with this power.” Shining said to Mythic who was looking at them with raised eyebrows.

“You’ve both certainly improved your image, I can believe that you’re a captain, Shining Armor. I can also see that Greato is as strong as his ego, but strength alone won’t be enough for this fight. I can tell you now judging how far you both just went, that I can defeat you with sixty percent of my normal abilities.” Mythic said to them both.

Greato frowned, “Guess we best not wait!”

Greato teleported in front of Mythic and swung his axe, “RRRAAAAAAHHHH!” The axe powered by intense magic slammed into the floor and cut through it like butter as the attack grew in size.

Mythic was swallowed in a massive amount of red energy as the attack continued towards the walls which disappeared in an explosion of extreme force that blasted smoke and energy particles into the sky above them.

The smoke was cleared away in an instant by another sweep of Greato’s arcane axe. Greato looked into the sky trying to gauge Mythic’s position, ‘Where is he?!'

"I'm up here!" Mythic stated to Greato.

Greato looked up and saw him with massive golden wings flapping gently on the wind. He also noticed that the orange sphere was in Mythic's right hand.

Greato turned to Shining and noticed that he had a shield up, "Hey, Shining! What happened?!"

Shining let down the barrier, "He was faster than we were in the uptake! He managed to dodge your attack and stopped me instead!"

Greato turned back to Mythic who was coming down for a landing, "Damn... Even at our new strength, he's still too fast."

Mythic grinned as he finally touched the ground of the temple that was now filled with sunlight, "Well, what did you expect? I've been outclassing you both since the beginning, I'd say that putting a large hole into this temple is quite a feat, but it's not going to help you now that I have two battlefields."

Greato smirked, “That attack wasn’t meant to be able to catch a fast target, it was meant to create openings, though it is extremely deadly to most ponies or other creatures. Now I’ll switch the approach.”

Greato began to reshape the red arcane axe into a smaller axe, "This one is built for speed.” Greato finished as the red magic arched around his form.

Mythic looked at the orange sphere in his hand, “What about this thing? Does your group still want it?”

Mythic never got his answer as Greato began to swing the axe around at high speeds. Small slashes of red magic cut through the air toward Mythic who flapped his wings in order to escape the incoming projectiles.

As soon as he found himself farther away from the earth below he began to prepare his own counters, but found that magical orbs had surrounded himself the sky. They glowed a deep blue and sparked with high amounts of electricity.

Mythic looked at them curiously, ‘When did Shining have the time to surround me?’

Mythic noticed that the orbs were gaining energy and his eyes widened, ‘They’re gathering more power from the black clouds!’

The sky was lighting up a the energy charged into the magic orbs grew around him, “NOOOOO!” Lightning connected the orbs as the entirety of the sky was consumed in bright lightning.

The light grew brighter and brighter until the sky was completely covered in it’s shining display. Greato and Shining shielded themselves from the light. It slowly subsided and Shining opened his eyes to see something small glow orange as it fell from the sky.

“There’s the sphere!” Shining reached out with his magic and felt the familiar orb as it floated back to the two guards.

Shining brought it over to Mace and put it inside the carrying bag, “Okay, we got it. You know what to do.”

Mace nodded though somewhat reluctant as he finally broke his chains. The surge of magic made his stomach churn with more uncertainty. Mace summoned the magic despite the feelings going through his mind and with a flash of light, he was gone.

Shining and Greato looked back to make sure that Mace had finally left them. Then they turned back to see a rapidly approaching Mythic. He landed and chunks of rock and dust spewed from the area. Mythic flapped his wings to rid himself of the dust and looked at the two ponies with fiery rage coming from behind his golden eyes.

“That was the last straw!” Mythic finished as he drew his shimmering sword out of it’s sheath.

He swung the giant blade down upon Shining who teleported quickly out of the way. Shining summoned his magic to relay a message to Greato.

‘I don’t have much magical strength after using that last attack! This is do or die and we need to stall for Mace!’ Shining thought over to Greato as he barely dodged another slash.

Greato nodded, ‘Shining, can you try to stop his blade with your magic? I’ve got quite a bit more strength left than you do, so I can try to attack him again?!’ Greato suffered a slight graze on his as he tried to save his magic for the attack.

Shining charged forward only for Mythic to stop him in his tracks, “Sorry, I remember saying this was a play fight and I agreed to play for only so long, but now I’m feeling just fine. I have a Princess to find and no-”

Greato took his chance to strike only for his attack to be stopped by Mythic’s sword which proceeded to cut through the red axe and slice Greato’s throat open. All magic power that had been coming from Greato began to rapidly dissipate as he stumbled back.

“GREATO!” Shining yelled as the final spark of red energy disappeared from around the stumbling Greato.

Shining’s eyes widened as he watched his friend die before him. Greato tripped over his own hoofs as blood poured from the cut jugular. His attempts to breath only brought more pain as his the blood suffocated him. He hit the ground in moments and twitched a bit before finally stopping the continued attempt to live.

Shining felt himself being dropped by Mythic, “Go on, see your friends misery and pain. Let it break you, then I’ll finish the job…”

Shining crawled over to Greato’s body and pushed himself up until he was sitting above the corpse. He looked down on the form as the nerves inside Greato’s body made it twitch.

“No… Why?” Shining’s words were barely above a whisper.

He realized that he was crying by seeing his tears start to drop on the fur of the corpse before him. Soon you could hear a sob and then the tears began to cascade down Shining’s face.

“We were going to make it back!” Shining yelled as he heard footsteps coming from behind him.

They were slow and methodical, Shining turned to see Mythic smiling in a weird fashion. Shining’s facial expression quickly began to change to anger.

“YOU!” Shining exclaimed at the monster walking toward him.

“Yes, me!” Mythic said as he began to speed up slightly.

Shining fired up his horn as his eyes glowed blue. He charged a large blue ball of magic as Mythic stopped. Shining pointed the attack at Mythic.

“YOU’RE GOING TO PAY!” Shining fired the blast at the assailant and it powered forward with an extreme amount of speed.

Mythic threw out his right palm and caught the attack. He then crushed it with his own magic and it exploded inside the golden power as if nothing had happened in the first place.

Shining’s bursting new power rapidly dwindled to nothing as he realized that he would not escape his fate. That’s when Mythic struck, his sword impaled through Shining’s neck and out his back. Shining was already gone when Mythic pulled out the blade.

Shining’s body hit the floor with a thud and all was quiet.

“How fitting.”

Mace finally reached the end of his magical limit, luckily he made it back to the castle grounds in one piece. He fell to the ground with no more energy left to support himself and was quickly brought to the medical wing of the castle.

Celestia had immediately went to the hospital wing to try and get information out of Mace. He was unconscious due to the amount of magic he had used and she would instead end up staying the night.

Her thoughts consisted of two things. Where was Shining and Greato and why did the dragon no longer speak to her? Two things she’d have no choice but to wait to hear about in the morning.

Octavia sighed as she rolled over trying to find a way to find a way to fall asleep, yet she continued to fail in this department.

‘I can’t help but feel that something has went terribly wrong.’

She couldn’t possibly realize how right she was.

Part Two of Six

Season 2 A Mythic Return and A New Plan

~Raze's Journey Chapter 19~

Celestia had sat in the room for most of the night and far into the morning when she had moved her sun into the sky. All had been quiet for a while, but she couldn’t shake the feeling that something was happening. That’s when she heard hoofsteps coming from down the hall.

Celestia immediately stood onto her own hoofs and went for the door only for it to open on it’s own. A few guards clad in armor stood in front of her with very serious faces.

“Princess! There has been a massive amount of emergency letters being sent by magic just this morning! The mail room had went through them all and they seem to be reporting massive attacks on guard outposts all over Equestria leading in a straight line toward Canterlot!” The First Guard exclaimed to her.

Celestia nodded and quickly assumed her leadership role, “Okay, enough panicking. Get the Elements of Harmony bearers and tell them to meet me in the main hall! I’ll have somepony else get my student to come back! Also, get Luna up and prepare the castle’s defensive line!”

The guards nodded and ran off leaving one behind. He walked to reveal himself as being Vladimir.

Celestia noted his presence and immediately walked over to him, “I need you to rally a slightly smaller force of guards! Evacuate the city of Canterlot and then meet all of us back here!”

Vladimir smiled, “Of course, Princess!”

He opened his wings and flapped hard into the air. He then sped off down the hall to gather his fellow guardsponies. Celestia teleported out of the room with a flash of light.

Octavia slept all too well, she snuggled her teddy bear and was dreaming of several dangerous missions that she had done over the past few weeks. All was quiet until a bright light woke her up.

There are several ways to react, but Octavia was different. She reached under her pillow and got the bow on quickly and activated her powers to face down this new foe only for her to see Celestia staring at her with a small frown on her face.

“Princess, pardon me for asking, but why are you here?” Octavia asked hesitantly.

Princess Celestia didn’t drop her frown as she went over to the window and looked outside, “There have been many attacks on all of the guard posts outside of the canterlot area and the line the attacks are going will lead to Canterlot soon enough.”

Octavia gasped, “Really? Well, what do you need, Princess? I’m here for you!”

Celestia turned to Octavia, “I need you to bring Twilight back, we’re going to need her for this fight and I’m sure that she’s gotten ahold of her latent abilities within the short time given to her. Can you get her here?”

Octavia nodded with determination, “Of course, Princess!”

Celestia smiled, “Thank-you, Octavia.”

Octavia turned to leave, but then she was stopped by Celestia clearing her throat. She turned back to see Celestia holding her teddy bear in golden magic. She blushed in embarrassment as Celestia giggled.

“I can see that you hold onto mementos just as I do, I remmber when I got this for you when you were just a little filly. I’m glad to see it in such good shape.” Celestia said to Octavia who smiled.

“I will always hold onto the past, but I must go forward with my future. You always told me to keep going in the face of adversity and I hope to carry out that till the end.” Octavia finished as she closed the door behind her leaving Celestia to hold the teddy bear all on her lonesome.

Twilight panted in exhaustion and collapsed on the ground, ‘That’s it, my magic is as strong as it can be for now… I need to try and get up...’

Twilight tried to roll over, but failed to move even that much, 'I guess I know how Applejack feels when she's done apple bucking...'

Twilight laid under the sunlight of the early morning and she wondered, ‘Will I even make it back?’

That’s when some hoofsteps were heard coming from her left. Twilight managed to turn her head and saw a gray mare she had known since her fillyhood.

“Octavia! Le-! Owww!” Twilight felt her body ache while trying to move and immediately stopped herself.

“Please don’t move, it seems like you’re in pain. What have you been doing out here, Twilight?” Octavia asked her colleague.

“Training my new ascended magic, it’s been really tough… But I do have something that I got from a friend of mine and it should heal me. It’s in my saddlebags over there.” Twilight said while nudging in the item’s direction.

Octavia nodded and went for the bag. She started rummaging through it, but didn’t find anything, but a green bean, books, and a pack of daisy sandwiches.

“Ummm… Twilight?” Octavia questioned her.

“Yes, Octavia?” Twilight said to her.

“I don’t see any healing items in this bag.” Octavia said to Twilight.

“It’s a green bean!” Twilight exclaimed as she jerked from the pain her body was going through at the moment.

“Oh, alright! Got it!” Octavia immediately went over to Twilight and dropped it into her mouth.

‘Actually, I probably should have asked her before doing that...’ Octavia saw Twilight chew it and swallow before she could say anything.

Suddenly, her body seemed to pump up and Twilight rolled over to stand tall once again, “Thanks, Octavia! I just needed that boost!”

“You’re welcome, Twilight.” Octavia said as Twilight mved to get her saddlebags.

“Has anything happened in Canterlot while I’ve been here?” Twilight asked all of a sudden.

Octavia nodded, “Celestia sent me to find and tell you of the current situation. A mysterious creature has attacked every guard post and upon closer inspection, the attacked areas are leading straight to Canterlot.”

Twilight gasped, “Then we need to hurry back now!” She slung her saddlebags onto her back and quickly looked over at Octavia.

“Put a hoof on my shoulder.” Twilight said as Octavia did just that.

They disappeared in a flash of light and the forest was quiet once more.

An explosion sounded off as fire and smoke spread throughout the area. The bodies of guards littered the ground as a lone figure stepped out of the fire. He was carrying a dead body in one hand and a golden sword in the other.

Mythic looked up at the Foal Mountains ahead and he smiled with glee, “Oh Celestia, I could have taken a higher route, but this is the fun way.”

Mythic dropped the body and opened his wings only to have multiple magical auras surround them all at once, “This is new.”

Guards began charging and stood all around the mysterious creature.

One stepped forward, “We got word that you’d be heading this way! So we’ve set up an ambush just for you… Whatever you are! Now surrender, or we’ll be forced to execute you!”

Mythic frowned, “Really? You’ll keep me alive if I “give up”? The guards in this time are PATHETIC!”

Mythic broke the spells with his own magical might and charged the one who had dared speak to him in such a feeble tone. He grabbed the guard by his throat and slammed him into the ground.

“In my time, we killed those who stood against us! Celestia has been growing soft since that time, to think that only three centuries would be all it took…” Mythic trailed off while simultaneously crushing the guard’s throat inward.

“I’ll have to show her the error of her ways.” Mythic said as the guards started retreating.

The guards began to gallop away as Mythic’s eyes started glowing. Earth began to rise up and pile together as trees joined the rubble. Then he sent it at the force like a gigantic wave that swallowed whatever happened to be beneath it.

Guards were caught up to easily and crushed underneath the rocky flowing tomb. Shattering bones and yells for help sounded out, but nopony would gallop back despite them being brothers in arms. The ones who didn’t come back were killed off by the attack anyway.

Once Mythic felt he had satisfied himself, he lifted the now titanic landmass into the sky and crushed it down into a tiny, but very dense ball. He then dropped it. When the ball hit the ground, a loud explosion of dust and earth blasted into the air.

Mythic smiled, ‘I seem to be even stronger than I had been when she betrayed me, this is more than I could ever ask for!’

He spread his wings and flapped them. One flap sent him far into the sky as he continued his speedy arrival towards the castle in the distance.

‘Fate can only be prolonged for so long...’

~Inside the Royal Hall~

Celestia and Luna sat upon their respective thrones while a small group of ponies sat gathered in the hall.

The few elements in the room were Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie, but Twilight hadn’t showed up yet. Celestia had told them she would arrive soon and not to worry for their safety as she would be there to protect them.

Fluttershy despite hearing that was now panicking a bit, but nopony seemed to hear her due to the quietness of her panicky state. Rarity was slightly better off than Fluttershy, but her thoughts conitnued to turn to the worst when hearing of the crimes that were being committed by the creature getting closer to their location.

Pinkie was trying to make everyone feel better, but was not getting any of the responses she wanted so desperately. Everypony was far too serious and while that is an appropriate response, she wanted to at least make them feel like they were going to win this fight.

“Hey! Come on everypony! We need to keep up our spirits! All this gloom and doom isn’t going to help us when we have to fight!” Pinkie said in her most manageable happy and serious voice.

“As much as I’d love to agree, Darling. I can’t say that what I’ve heard about this creature is the best thing to keep my spirits up.” Rarity said to Pinkie who frowned.

Fluttershy whimpered and hid her face behind her mane.

Celestia and Luna conversed quietly while waiting for either Twilight to arrive or for the alternative.
Celestia looked around, ‘It feels odd, I know that I was warned, but I never thought that it could be this horrible…’ He mind flashed back the memories that of what the dragon had said to her.

“You must find the six Dragon Balls that remain in your world! Be warned though, I sense danger ahead for whomever you send on this journey.”
“What do you mean? What danger?!” Celestia asked Shenron in deep worry.
“I cannot tell you! But I will inform you that it is a mistake that you made in the past!” Shenron exclaimed deeply.

Celestia tried to go through her memories, but an odd haze stopped her from going through memories from at least three hundred years back.

‘What’s wrong with my mind?’ Celestia questioned herself while feeling something tap her right front shoulder.

“Tia? What dost thou think of?” Luna asked the seemingly distraught sun bringer.

Celestia’s eyes widened at that and she shook her head, “Err… Nothing is wrong, Luna. Just some bad tea from earlier, I’m sure of it.”

Luna arched an eye at that, “Art thou truly sure? Dost thou lie to hide something?” She questioned her sister who continued to try and avoid looking at her directly.

“I’m not sure what I’m hiding, but it’s not important. We need to focus on the present situation." Celestia said to her sister.

The doors at the beginning of the hall opened and everypony inside the room turned to look only to see Rainbow Dash with lots of bandages covering her body. Applejack stood beside her with a few bandages covering her torso.

“Rainbow Dash?! Why is your plot out of bed?!” Pinkie asked while galloping toward the rainbow maned pegasus.

Rainbow smiled, “Hey! you know we wouldn’t let everyone face a monster without us!”

Applejack nodded, “We want to help, so we had to knock out the nurse, but she should be jus fine! Well… after she rests fer a few days an all…”

“You know, honesty might be what you are, but there’s a time and a place for all this to come out.” Rainbow deadpanned as Applejack blushed a bit.

“Heheh, Sorry bout that.” Applejack said while turning away slightly.

Rainbow Dash smirked, “It’s alright, Ma.”

Applejack frowned, “Should I get mah rope?”

Rainbow Dash could have said sure, but she decided against it, “Nah, besides, we have more important things to deal with. Has that evil thing the nurses kept talking about showed up yet?”

Celestia shook her head, “No, be we have reason to believe that it’s not far off from us. Our castle walls have defenses set up all around it’s perimeters, so we should be relatively safe here.”

Luna nodded and got up, “We will see if there have been any new developments outside.” Luna began to charge magic in her horn, but turned to her sister before she made the final jump.

“Be careful, Tia…” Luna was gone in a flash and all was silent for a second.

Celestia ruffled her wings at the sudden chill that had just passed through her bones, ‘Twilight, where are you?’

Twilight galloped through the streets of Canterlot while following Octavia. Their hooves kicked up dust as they ran through the deserted mountainside city.

“You’d think we would have gotten to the castle by now since the streets aren’t filled up by any ponies!” Twilight said to Octavia.

Octavia smiled, “This city is much bigger when you’re in a hurry! Nopony knows whether it’s an enchantment by Celestia or if it’s their own minds, but we should be there in fifteen minutes or so! Just keep up with me!” She finished while making herself go a bit faster.

Twilight sped up while watching the the sky for any sign of danger, “That’s different! I’ve never really heard of that befo-” A loud explosion was heard which shook the ground around them.

Octavia stopped in front of her causing Twilight to crash into her. They hit the ground subsequently in a small pile up.

Mythic walked through the rubble of the now destroyed wall, “That didn’t last long…”

Small areas were lit up with fire as he continued past corpses of troops who hadn’t made it. Each step accentuated a crunch as wood and stone would break underneath him. Mythic stopped and looked around for a second.

‘What’s that sou-’

Luna landed before him, “WHAT HAVE THOU DONE?!”

Mythic’s eyes widened, “Nightmare Moon? I thought you were serving a sentence on the Moon...”

Luna stepped forward, “We ar-”

“But if you aren’t serving your sentence, then you must be here for revenge! Well, why not join me, Nightmare Moon?! We will kill your sister together! What do you say?!” Mythic exclaimed to the confused Luna.

“What dost thou speak of? We are not Nightmare Moon!” Luna said to the creature.

“You aren’t Nightmare Moon? But how are you an alicorn?!” Mythic questioned back.

“Wel- Wait! THAT DOST MATTER! WE ARE PRINCESS OF THE NIGHT AND YOU SHALL PAY FOR YOUR INTRUSION ON OUR CASTLE!” Luna bellowed as Mythic raised his eyebrow.

“But wasn’t Nightm-” A large blast of magic shot from Luna’s horn and hit Mythic causing him to fly off the side of the cliff.

Electricity crackled off Luna’s horn as raised her head to see that her attack had taken the rubble along with the corpses and thrown them off the side with the creature.

‘He dost not seem as strong as they said he would be...’ Luna thought to herself.

Despite that lingering thought, she opened her wings and shot into the sky.

Mythic fell through the air while still being slightly confused until he remembered that he did have wings. A brief golden light glowed around him and wings spread out from his special armor. With a flap of these angelic wings, he blasted back into the sky.

‘So she’s not looking for revenge after all and I never caught her name… Oh well, I guess it’s time to do this all over again…’ Mythic thought while flying back to his target only to be interrupted yet again by the “Princess of the Night”.

“We are surprised that you actually survived our attack!” Luna said to the slightly annoyed creature.

“Don’t be surprised, I’ve not started truly fighting yet! Your guards found that out the hard way, just ike every othe-” A blast of powerful magic zapped by him as he moved away from said attack.

“Ah, Feisty. That works too! I will enjoy making you see the error of your ways!” Mythic said while flying at her.

Just as he was to collide with her, she vanished in a pop of blue light. Luna appeared on his other side and fired off several magical attacks which bounced off a golden force field. Mythic made several balls of magical energy sent them at Luna.

Luna activated her magic while preparing a teleportation spell, but then electricity hit her horn. The spell broke to pieces instantly as the lightning transferred from her horn to her body in seconds. The balls of electricity continued holding her body while the lightning grew in strength.

Mythic drew his sword, “I suppose that this will be it then. I hope that you enjoy your afterli- AGGGGHHHH!”

Mythic felt charred slightly, but his ego was bruised far more than that, ‘What was that?!”

Mythic turned around only to see a massive thundercloud perched above him. He also saw multiple members of the night guard flying around and adding smaller clouds to it.

Suddenly, He felt a power magical force encompass his body. He tried escaping, but the force kept his body snapped together.

“So, you escaped after all!” Mythic said while not able to face his enemy.

“What did thou think wouldst happen? We are not inept in magic and thou shall soon see the errors of thou’s ways! Art thou capable of living through this storm of our guards making?! We shall see.” Luna laughed to herself while increasing her efforts of holding Mythic.

She felt more magic begin to bolster her powers and saw several unicorns standing on a unbroken part of the wall. All of them were holding Mythic.

He tried struggling once again, “Damn! Once I get out of this, you will pay!”

The entirety of the bat pony and pegasi guards flew atop the cloud. The cloud seemed to be floating downward because of the great mass of all the pegasi on top of the gigantic monstrosity.

Mythic looked upward one last while gathering magic into all the parts of his body as the entire troop made one jump into the sky and then crashed down onto the cloud. Mythic felt his entire body light up with an intense searing pain.

The entire area was alight with a massive thunderbolt that crashed into the ground below causing a massive upheaval of earth to blast into the sky as the entire area became magnetized. Smoke rose into the air around Luna and the guards.

All was quiet after the attack. Blue light shimmered off every stone with sparks of blue electricity making a large light show for all of the guard to see.

Luna decided that she’d had enough and flapped her wings to move out all the smoke. Finally with the whole area cleared out and the lights from the stones shining bright. They had a clear view of the area.

Luna couldn’t feel any signs of magic in any parts of the large chasm below, but then she saw a yellow light appearing beside her body. She turned to her side and saw Mythic very much alive.

“Nice trick!” He said while smashing his hand into the side of her neck.

The magic powering his attack knocked Luna out instantly which made her body slump and begin to descend into the pit of thunderbolts below them. Mythic was tempted to go after her, but knew that he should stick to his original plan.

"Time for a few revelations!” Mythic moved his arm in a sweeping motion at the cloud blasted apart from up underneath the pegasi.

They recovered quickly and flew at him with mini blades held in their jaws, but Mythic took out his own blade. With a glow of golden power and a swing to boot, they’re weapons disappeared from their mouths.

Confused and bewildered by the spectacle, the pegasi were captured inside of a golden bubble of magic, “Well, I suppose that I’ll make quick work of yo-”

Another force of magic entangled itself with his own causing the golden bubble to break apart with a greater force than Mythic had thought that she was capable of.

“You certainly took your time, Celestia!” Mythic yelled out to the alabaster alicorn that flapped her wings in midair behind him.

“I’m not sure how you know me, but I’d had enough of watching you make quick work of my guards and my Sister…” Celestia said with a slight degree of anger tinting her voice.

Mythic turned to her with a small frown upon his face, “And you’re even denying my existence…”

Celestia frowned a little bit more than she already was, “What do you mean by that?!”

“You’re going to find out exactly what I mean!” Mythic leapt at her while brandishing his blade as Celestia powered up a shield to surround herself.

His sword sliced into the barrier and even broke through a part of it. The sword was stuck, but Celestia couldn’t seem to take it away with her magic.

“You were always fast on the draw, but can you keep going like that, Tia?!” Mythic exclaimed while ripping his sword out of the barrier and returning to his spot in the air.

Celestia’s horn flared up and a arcane blade appeared with a powerful crackle she swung it to the right with fire seemingly burning off the weapon before pointing it in Mythic’s direction. Mythic returned it by pointing his golden blade right back at her.

“I’ll defeat you!” Celestia yelled at the charging Mythic.

They clashed with blinding results! The air seemed to turn into billions of razors picking up the debris around the area.

~Inside the Castle~

Rainbow Dash was quite angry at the fact that her friends and herself had been ordered to stay inside the castle, “We should be out there! Me and Applejack can handle the situation just fine!”

Fluttershy frowned, “B- but… Ummm… It’s dangerous out there, Rainbow.”

“Dangerous? I’m Rainbow Danger Dash! Nothing scares me!” Rainbow Dash proclaimed to her friend.

Applejack nodded, “Even though Ah can understand where yer coming from Sugarcube, ah still think that we could help Celestia!”

Pinkie jumped up with a quick nod, “YEAH! Rainbow Dash and Applejack both have those really awesome powers now! There’s no way they couldn’t help her out!”

“Darling, I think you’re forgetting something. Didn’t Applejack go a little over the top when she got these new abilities?” Rarity asked Pinkie.

“Oh… Right. Applejack did unscrew her cap a bit…” Pinkie finished while wearing a small frown.

Applejack was about to argue when the doors were blasted open to the room they were in. Walking from out of the dust cloud formed from the doors hitting the ground was Twilight Sparkle and Octavia.

Pinkie immediately shot toward Octavia and wrapped her into a crushing hug, “Tavi! How have you been sis?!”

Octavia gasped, “Please! Pinkie, let go!”

Pinkie immediately let go of her, “Sorry…”

“It’s alright, but I have missed you too, Pinkie.” Octavia finished with a small smile.

Pinkie reached in for another hug, but was stopped by Octavia, “Let’s wait for the next one, Pinkie?”

“Okay!” Pinkie said as the other part of the mane six along with Octavia and Pinkie gathered with Twilight.

Twilight looked around, “Okay, we’re all here! I just saw Celestia, but she seems to be handling that thing just fine! We need to come up with a plan to help her out though!”

Rainbow Dash smirked, “Aw yeah! This is just what we’ve been needing! Another alicorn to turn the tide!”

Applejack was definitely interested now, “Yeehaw! What’s the plan, Sugarcube?!”

Twilight smiled, “Alright, this is the plan…” She trailed off while bringing them all closer into a smaller circle.

~End of the Part Three~

New chapter, enjoy. Please...

Season 2 Setting Sun and a Rising Anger

Raze's Journey Chapter 20

Celestia flew to the left of the golden blade. The movement of the blade ripped open the training grounds just behind where she had been recently.

‘Just one less seco-’ Celestia teleported in a flash as yet another golden arc of energy sliced into the air she had just been at.

This time, her castle had suffered the brunt of the attack. As soon as it had struck a loud crash was heard as stone blasted into the inner sanctum.

Mythic looked around quickly, “Where is sh-” He felt flames wrap his entire being in the air and quickly summoned his golden shield to stop the flames from descending upon his body.

Mythic grunted while the flames pulsed around his shield. Celestia appeared before him while being wreathed in flames herself.

“So, you’re faster than you were before. I’ll have to give it to you there, Celest-” Mythic felt his shield begin to be pushed inward by the powerful flames. He immediately pushed back with superior power.

“I will not allow you to hurt my subjects any longer! You may have been free to cause destruction outside of my watchful eye, but you have revealed yourself to me and sealed your fate! Now begone!” Celestia roared as the fire grew in strength around the golden cocoon.

But Mythic wasn’t ready to give in just yet. The shield began to grow outward as he powered up his magic. Sparks flew off the outside as Celestia began to lose hold of her flames.Mythic felt victorious as his magic increased.

The shield exploded out in a bright flash, expelling the flames instantaneously. Celestia felt the winds change and immediately summoned a wall of golden energy to her right side. She felt the powerful strike of a blade against her shield and smirked.

“Gotcha!” She exclaimed while firing off a blast of magic at the warrior.

The blast continued past the area she’d assumed he had been at. Only to find that the sword was floating in midair, illuminated by the bright blue light of the valley below them. Her eyes widened and she looked around quickly.

‘Why would he abandon his weapon so easily?! For that matter, where’d he go?!’ She flapped her wings and teleported from the area as a flash of lightning zoomed past where she had been recently.

Celestia ascended into the sky while dodging several light beams fired from multiple different angles. She angled her body to match the air currents and began to raise up her horn while summoning her stockpile of magic.

Mythic appeared above her out of an explosion of light that spread particles all around the her, “Watch out Celestia! These particles will cut you apart.”

Celestia froze in midair while millions of particles surrounded her and became larger. Light spread around her while Mythic held out his hand.

“Seems you have nowhere to go, no backup or pla-” Mythic stopped as she spoke up.

“Even if this is as much as I can do against you, I promise that you won’t win this in the end!” Celestia said to the insane human above her.

Mythic closed his hand and Celestia was bombarded with blasts from all around. Smoke grew around the area as Mythic continued to let loose the magical projectiles onto his helpless target. He ran out of the powerful projectiles soon enough and was left watching the smoke rise into the air.

Celestia slowly descended from the smoke as her wings fell to her sides and the speed of said descent began to rapidly speed up. She hit the ground and crumpled in a heap as Mythic floated down to her level.

“Well, the heroic speech was good until it suddenly backfired on you…” Mythic walked toward the laying alicorn.

“You…” Celestia trailed off as she felt her body being lifted from the ground.

Mythic lifted her up to eye level, “You were strong at one time, Celestia. But now it seems that the tables have turned.”

Celestia grunted in response as the wind picked up around them both. Mythic moved his arm to the left and threw her at the wall of the castle with the motion. She smashed into the side fell to the ground.

Mythic summoned his sword in a blazing light while he continued to walk forward, “This is the end of an era! Good riddance!” He thrust the blade forward.

“GET AWAY FROM HER!”

Suddenly, he felt a huge amount of pain as his arm snapped from the pressure of a large body bashing into him with incredible velocity. Mythic crashed into the ground and grinded through it as stone churned upward from around his body.

Rainbow Dash stood in the aftermath of her sudden attack, “Don’t you ever go near our Princess again!”

Mythic slowly pushed himself up with his right hand as a golden light passed to his left arm, “WHO DARE-”

He was engulfed in a large orange explosion fired from high in the air. A large root came down from around the stone wall carrying a bandaged pony upon it, “Yer done here!” Applejack yelled with ferocity.

Twilight flew in from the air as a much larger alicorn with a sparkling aura, “Stand down!”

The smoke blasted away from the area quickly as large golden wings spanned outward from Mythic’s back, “Who in the hell are all of… You...”

Twilight flared her wings out threateningly, “That doesn’t matter! We’re here to stop you, and that’s all you need to know!”

Mythic put his sword into the ground which stabbed the earth with ease, “You look like someone I’ve known in the past!” He pointed his index finger at Twilight.

He felt the memories flooding throughout his mind, yet Twilight was already preparing her attack. Roots surrounded him completely leaving only Twilight visible to him.

‘Clover Sparkle… This must be a descendant.’

‘I’ll always be there for you...’
Another pony had taken Twilight’s place.

‘Yes, I know.’ Mythic reached out toward the pony only for the image to shatter.

Mythic immediately stepped back in horror as he was swallowed whole by a large magical wave. The attack smashed against the back of the large root wall causing a massive explosion to ripple upwards into the sky. The roots began to lose shape against the massive blast. Fire seemed wreathed up the sides as Applejack finally let them go.

The large appendages hit the ground and the side of the castle causing the wall to cave along with most of the earth churning up. Twilight shielded her face with her right wing and stepped backward as the fire continued growing.

‘A will o’ wisp and a powerful explosive spell to boot, there’s no way that he’s getting out of that!’ Twilight thought as a hoof touched her shoulder.

She looked over to see Octavia looking at her seriously, “I’ll take it from here.’ Twilight could swear that the bow around her neck was lighting up.

Out of the fire emerged a bright golden shield and then a whole body stepped out. Mythic looked at them all while holding his sword in his left hand and a golden ball of magic in his right hand.

“I’m not sure what you did there, New Alicorn… But I’m not going to let anything stop me again! Celestia will pay for my suffering and then you will be made an example.” Mythic direly said while hefting up his blade and pointing it at the retreating Twilight.

“Your fight isn’t with her!” said a new voice.

Mythic looked at his new combatant and his eyes widened. He started to laugh. First it was a small chuckle and then a large guffaw as he let down the golden shield.

“An earth pony? You send this to fight me?! I swea- argh!” Mythic felt a hoof smashing into his stomach.

Octavia had moved forward in the last few seconds and was standing beside him on her back hooves planted firmly in the ground causing indents to be evident. Mythic stumbled backwards slightly from the shock as Octavia moved yet again.

Mythic saw the left back hoof as it struck him solidly in the side. The force of the impact threw him straight into the castle wall and even further inside the building carrying large stones with the impact of the attack.

Octavia dropped back onto all fours while waiting for her opponent to get back up. Twilight was amazed by her movements as were, Rainbow Dash and Applejack. Mythic pushed the wreckage off himself and walked out of the rubble.

He charged for Octavia immediately upon reaching the ground to which she side stepped him with another burst of speed sending him into a small titter. He stopped on his right foot and summoned his sword in his left hand.

He swung it in her direction to which she hit the ground a in reverse crab walking position. The sword missed every inch of her body and she turned to her side which smashed her left back hoof in to Mythic’s arm.

He dropped the blade and Octavia disappeared in a flash of gray light. Mythic disappeared in golden light just as another hoof went in for a powerful blow. His sudden disappearance caused Octavia to stumble down as he reappeared and bashed her heavily in the side with his right foot.

Octavia hit the ground hard and slid for a few moments. Her hooves twitched as she started picking herself up.

“You hit pretty hard, Earth Pony.” Mythic said with a grin.

Octavia was back on all fours once more and looked up fiercely, “Well, come on over and let’s see if I can’t crack a rib!”

“Feisty too, I’m going to have to teach you a lesson it seems.” Mythic spread out his wings and flew into the sky.

“I don’t think you’ll have much of an advantage from down there!” He laughed at the grounded Earth Pony.

Octavia closed her eyes and began to focus on her bow. Light began to shimmer from the pink ensemble as she was surrounded by a dark gray aura.

Octavia lifted off into the air towards a very surprised Mythic. She reached him and he disappeared. He brought the side of his hand down upon her neck causing her body to jolt at the sudden contact.

Octavia felt her strength had begun to decrease, ‘What?! I thought...’ She felt herself falling through the air.

Twilight galloped toward her and activated her horn. Octavia’s descent was stopped completely and she was teleported out of harms way as Mythic had come down for another strike. He landed on the ground and summoned his sword to his side once more.

“I’ve had it with all the interruptions! I’m not allowing myself to trip up any longer!” He turned to Twilight and immediately charged her.

Twilight was still holding Octavia as he appeared before her. She gasped in shock as it seemed that her life would come to an end.

"Twilight!" an all too familiar voice called out. The young unicorn watched as Celestia flew in front of her, encompassing her and Octavia in her wavering shadow.

Mythic's blade struck the alicorn, forcing her to jolt from the horrendous pain that borrowed deep into her body. Her cry echoed throughout the area, filling Twilight's head with a tempest of emotion

"NO, CELESTIA!" she yelled, frozen in place as the blade exited her mentor's body. Celestia gave her friend a light smile and collapsed on the floor.

The sound of her form colliding with the ground reverberated in Twilight's ears. It would for a long time.

"WHY?! Why'd you do it?" She pushed herself to her mentor and buried her nose into her white fur.

"I... I couldn't just let y-you die, could I?" Celestia chuckled weakly.

Tears slid down Twilight's cheeks. "N-n-no... You'd never do that!" she cried.

Rainbow Dash helped up Octavia, “You alright?” She asked.

“Just a little shaken up…” She replied quickly while turning back toward the main issue at the moment.

“I think it’s time I started showing my full capability!” Mythic shouted to them while pointing his sword at them.

Twilight looked up with tears blinding her vision nearly as she saw the blade golden glow receding away. Mythic noticed this as well and pulled the sword back to examine it. All of it’s power had faded away.

“What’s this?” Mythic said while noticing the lighting from the sun was beginning to flicker like the power in his blade.

The wind began to die down as Twilight felt her mentor’s chest heaving for air. She heard a faint whispering coming from Celestia.

“The sun… Without me, it’s going to fall…” Celestia turned over and had to resist the urge to scream in agony from just the one movement.

Twilight grabbed one of her hooves, “What can we do to stop it?”

Celestia slightly shook her head, “Stopping i- it isn’t g- g- going to be a- a- an option…” She trailed off with a small cough that brought blood with it.

“Then what choices do we have?” Twilight questioned.

Celestia smiled wistfully, “I- I- I w- was t- trying to t- tell you…” Her attempt to talk barred by another coughing fit.

Twilight leaned in closer, “Please, save your strength! You’ll survive! I know it!” Twilight exclaimed while powering up her horn and trying to summon her magical strength.

The stress was getting to her though, and the power wasn’t nearly enough for what she needed to do. Celestia breathed in once more and shook her head slightly.

“P- Please, S- S- Stop worrying s- so m- much… T- There is a- a- another w- way,” Celestia whispered to her student.

“What is it?! Can it save you!?” Twilight asked urgently.

“I- I’m not s- sure how t- to use t- them, b- but t- tell your f- friend, R- Raze about t- the D- Dragon Balls… H- He should k- know how to u- use them...” Celestia’s breathing began to slow as Twilight nuzzled into her neck.

“No, No! Celestia, don’t leave me!” Twilight broke down as Celestia’s heartbeat finally stopped.

The sun faded out as the moon rose into the sky. The only Alicorn left being Luna that held a celestial object in the sky. The sword in Mythic’s hand also became a heavy black useless blade.

He tried forcing magic into it, but nothing happened.

“WHAT DID SHE DO TO MY BLADE!?” He roared while ponies around the area silently sobbed for the loss of one of their leaders.

Twilight stayed by the side of the cold body as she felt the wind begin to pick up once more. Her left ear flicked and her horn seemed to be feeling a strange energy. Mythic noticed the change in wind current and backed up slightly.

“What is this? What are you doing, Alicorn?!” He exclaimed at the teary eyed Twilight.

She got up and summoned the magic she had left, “I’m not sure…” Her horn flashed, both her and the body of Celestia disappeared from view as the wind picked up broken pieces of earth which were being thrown in Mythic’s direction. He quickly flapped his wings and went high into the air.

Twilight appeared beside Rainbow Dash and Octavia with Celestia’s body as they watched the sky for the oncoming thing that was happening at the moment.

He looked around for the source of the wind and looked high into the sky south of the castle. A crack in the sky seemed to be opening. Slowly but surely it became greater in size. Lightning crackled around as white light poured out of it.

The ground shook below and birds flew away out of fear. Trees fell in the forests below and earth dislodged itself from the ground into the sky above.

Far in the desert, the portal surrounded by agents was growing smaller. Dinosaurs began to disappear from the area foreboding area shut inward on itself.

Soon it stopped, but the sand still shook with ferocity coming all the way from the events currently taking place in Canterlot.

~Inside A Blue Box~

“WE’RE COMING IN FOR A LANDING!” The Doctor exclaimed with a mad grin upon his face.

Derpy’s laugh mixed in with the mad pony in a box while Raze sat to the side of the insanity. He kept looking at the picture he had in his hands.

‘It was fun, but we’ll see each other again soon, I promise!’ Raze said while seeing the smiling faces of Ken, Kira, Lyra, and even Bon-Bon who had joined in on their last big photo to commemorate the time spent in the other Equestria.

He quickly folded the picture and put into his new sash. He got up and held onto a support bar. Derpy also grabbed one as the Doctor put his hoof up to the brake.

Discord wrapped himself around one of the bars and joined in the laughter.

“HANG ON!” The Doctor yelled as he pulled the emergency brake.

~Back outside the widening portal~

Twilight and the others watched the sky above town from where they were as it began to glow brighter and brighter. Suddenly a small object broke free from the portal as it soared down into the town and out of sight.

‘What was that?’ Twilight questioned herself as she saw Mythic coming down toward the group.

~Back inside the Blue Box~

“WE’RE GOING TO HIT A HOUSE!” The Doctor yelled as the ship shook wildly.

Raze hung on to the guard rail for life alongside Derpy and Discord who were still laughing despite this new revelation.

They hit the ground and begin to grind into it as the house got closer in the camera view. The Doctor pulled harder on the emergency brake as the ship slowed down. The TARDIS got closer and closer to the house until it stopped just after chipping a piece of paint off the wall.

Smoke rose into the air and from the inside as the door opened and Raze ran out while holding in the precious little air he had. Discord flew out along with Derpy and the Doctor fell out of the doorway.

“I didn’t even know this ship had literal brakes!” Raze said while looking at the smoking box.

The Doctor pushed himself back up, “It’s always been a feature and it’s usually always on! I’m a little forgetful like that…”

Derpy flew through the air with a joyous look upon her face, “We’re home! We’re home! And why is it so dark?”

Discord looked around with a serious frown, “Somethings off… Wait a minute…”

“I feel it too! It’s coming from the castle!” Raze said while feeling the ominous energies coming from that area.

Discord closed his eyes for a moment. He opened his eyes wide with realization.

“We need to go now, Raze! Something is about to attack the other ponies and Celestia is gone!” Discord exclaimed as he grabbed Raze’s shoulder.

“What do you mean?! Why is Celestia gone?!” Raze asked the Chaos God.

“She’s dead! And he killed her!” Discord roared in anger.

“Who killed her?!” Raze asked once more.

“He’s some blonde guy! I’m going to kill him, or have you do it!” Discord said with steam rising from his ears.

“Uhhh… Okay! I’ll do it!” Raze said with a smirk.

“So, when we teleport you will end up beside the evil guy. Do something heroic and hurt him, or I will get you back after I kill him.” Discord said with a grunt.

“I’ve never seen you so serious before…” Raze trailed off with slight worry.

“Get used to it for the time being.” Discord finished as they both disappeared.

The Doctor and Derpy frowned.

“You forgot us!” And they were left alone in a random part of town.

~The Main Scene~

Twilight flinched as she readied herself for the attack.

Mythic raised his fist powered up by magic and thrust it downward at Twilight, “THIS I-” His fist was stopped by another hand grabbing his arm from the side.

Mythic looked over at the newcomer and his eyes widened.

Raze looked at him through narrowed eyes, “You’re pissing me off!” He then smashed his own fist into the side of Mythic’s face and launched him into the castle.

I hope everyone remembers to leave a comment! And is somewhat happy with this! :D

Season 2 A Fist For Your Morals And A Seal For Your Fate

Mythic wasn’t having a good day. His speeches were interrupted the entire time during his conquest. He managed to kill one pony, but that didn’t seem to matter despite being his ultimate goal. On top of that, he was put down by an earth pony, cannot even hit an alicorn with his fist, and on top of that, another person like him exists.

This person then punched him in the face. Now he was in the main throne on the other side of the castle. His cheekbone hurt despite having armor on and it felt like it was broken. Luckily, his magic still continued to heal himself.

One line continued to echo in his head, ‘You’re pissing me off! off! off! off! off!’

Mythic stayed on the wall he was lodged in as he saw the area begin to light up, ‘What the hell is up with the lighting.’

The light reached him in seconds and his body completely compressed and smashed through the wall he was stuck in. He flew across another open field only to crash through the other side of the castle’s defensive wall. Mythic felt massive stones crush his entire body and soon he couldn’t be seen.

~Back With Our Hero~

Raze lowered both his hands and felt extremely satisfied with his last attacks, “That feels pretty damn good! Though, after leaving my two Godchildren, Mom, and not so mean Bon-Bon, why did this have to be the first thing I have to do?!” He exclaimed as Twilight looked up finally.

“Raze?!” She immediately stood up and was joined by the rest of the group minus Octavia who sat beside of Celestia’s body in mourning.

Raze turned to them with a small smile, “It’s been a while hasn’t it?”

“Where did you go?! We searched for you all over! Even Rainbow Dash helped us try and find you!” Twilight said with exasperation.

Raze arched an eyebrow at that, “She did? Well, that’s new.” Raze finished while scratching his head.

Rainbow Dash slid her hoof across the ground at that, “Whatever!” She replied while looking away.

Twilight was about to say something, but suddenly magic power began to spike from the other side of the castle grounds. Raze noticed her staring at the area he had just sent Mythic through.

“We’re going to have to cut this conversation short, see you all later.” Raze flew into the broken castle and headed for his fallen enemy.

~Back with Mythic~

The heavy stone blasted away from Mythic and he stood glowing with golden magic surrounding him. His body seemed perfectly well off at the moment and he was ready for anything. Well, except for when he was surprised by that other human.

‘Who in tartarus was that?!’ There didn’t seem to be an answer for that thought, so he stood there trying to make a plan of action.

Just as his mind began to process an idea he saw the being flying through the castle toward him. He immediately summoned his magic in preparation for conflict. The golden magic lit up the area considerably as the human landed before him.

His very landing seemed to break the ground, ‘That bastard is coming, what do I do?!’

Raze’s eyes narrowed as he started to walk forward, “You know, I just got back from a wonderful time with my Godchildren and then I finally get back to see my friends battered into near death.” Raze finished while finally stopping his walk to end up nearly ten inches away from Mythic who seemed to try to step back from the somewhat taller Raze.

“What else I don’t get is why this is happening at all. I know that I missed something since I’m so late to the party, but I don’t think anyone ever mentioned other humans actually existing in Equestria.” Raze said while rubbing his chin.

“Bu-” Mythic was interrupted by Raze.

“Not that it matters, I’ve seen enough to know that you don’t deserve any mercy at the moment. So, I suppose I’ll be showing off my new strength to you. It’s kind of a shame that you don’t seem to be all that strong…” Raze said to the seemingly shrunken Mythic.

‘Not all that strong?! How dare he!’ Mythic thought as he began to focus his magic.

Raze noticed the yellow aura beginning glow around Mythic, “No way! Are you a Saiyan too?!”

Mythic’s eyes widened and then narrowed quickly, “No and take this!” He brought his left fist back and it powered up with a brighter yellow light.

He quickly smashed his fist into Raze’s gut. Mythic smirked in victory and then looked up at the warrior. His victory quickly lost itself as Raze seemed to be completely unfazed by the strike. Though his face showed that this was a minor annoyance at best.

“Alright, my turn!” Raze took hold of Mythic’s arm and began to move his feet into a large spinning motion.

Mythic was taken into the spin and thrown into the air. He flipped through the air while frantically opening his wings and flapping hard in order to stop himself from going further off.

Raze flew toward Mythic with his right fist pulled in and preparing for his next move. Mythic focused his magic and disappeared just as Raze punched through the golden glow accompanied with teleportation.

The magical flowed off Raze’s fingertips and went further into the sky where Mythic reappeared. Raze then felt his body become engulfed with magic as he was thrown towards the ground. He smashed into the ground and was then pelted by large magical spheres that blew apart the ground with Raze beneath the destruction.

Smoke and dust flew high into the air as Mythic continued his powerful assault, “HA! Not so strong now, are you?!”

~With our ponies~

They felt the power coming off of Mythic in waves as each blast shook Canterlot. Twilight felt the power continue to heighten with each strike. Octavia was considering trying her luck again and moved to get up only for something to start appearing before herself.

It was a faint outline at first, but slowly a blue box began to take form and solidify into actual mass before the ponies. A click was heard along with a partially loud squeaking noise as both doors opened.

The Doctor stepped out alongside Derpy much to the surprise of the ponies.

“Time Turner? Ditzy? What are you two doing here and what is that box?” Twilight questioned them both.

“Glad you asked Twilight, but I can’t answer you at the moment.” The Doctor said while staring over at Octavia who was walking towards the smoke filled area.

She felt someone tap her shoulder as a familiar gray pegasus flew down before her, “Octavia, please don’t go over there.”

Octavia frowned, “Why not? Raze needs some help obviously. So, I’m going to help him.”

Derpy shook her head quickly, “He doesn’t need any help, trust me on this. I’m pretty sure that you need to stay away from where he is.”

“I’m inclined to agree with Derpy, but not for personal reasons. He really is a lot stronger than he used to be. Thanks to his mentor, Chris.” The Doctor said while walking up calmly.

Twilight moved over along with her friends behind her, “Who’s Chris?”

The Doctor chuckled lightly, “A friend of ours from the second Equestria we visited. I’d say more, but we need to get out of here. So, follow me back to the TARDIS where I can explain everything in a safer environment.”

Twilight shook her head, “I’ve got to stay here with Celestia, you all should go on instead. I’m sure that I’ll be safe.”

Octavia put a hoof on Twilight’s shoulder, “I’ll be staying as well.”

The Doctor looked at them both and nodded, “Best of luck go with you both.” He finished before taking the rest of the ponies with him.

~Back with Mythic~

He continued firing the blasts with a shining hope that he had vanquished his enemy, ‘Just gotta keep going!’ But he couldn’t help seeing something amiss when his blasts began to explode a bit farther away from the impact site almost as if a shield was covering a small area.

That’s when he heard the yell, “HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!” The smoke in the area flew away as a golden aura flared to life from the center of the impact area.

The golden light blinded Mythic and he was forced to cover his eyes, ‘What did he do?! Is that Celestia’s magic as well?!’

Raze looked up at Mythic, “You asked for this!” He flew at Mythic and sunk his fist into Mythic’s stomach. The golden magic surrounding Mythic seemed to be obliterated by the one strike as Mythic coughed up a bit of blood.

Raze removed his fist and smashed his entire left leg into Mythic’s face causing him to fly off over the defensive wall into the empty city of Canterlot. Raze powered up his aura and chased after the flying Mythic.

As Mythic flew through the air his body healed itself. He still felt pain all over the side of his body from just the two strikes and his resolve was crumbling by the second.

That’s when Raze appeared above him and crashed a foot into Mythic’s stomach. Mythic’s sudden stop came with the force of at least twenty times his normal weight as he crashed through a house and hit ground floor at sixty miles per second.

Raze waited in the sky, ‘Surely he’s not dead. I’m not even using my full strength.’

Mythic laid above the rubble beneath himself while groaning in pain, ‘Why does everything hurt?’ He questioned himself as his body tried to heal with the magic flowing through himself.

Mythic heard a crack from beneath the floor and then another as he suddenly felt himself falling through the air once more. The wind felt nice, but he knew that Raze would follow him any second. Which he was of course.

Raze flew through the house toward the falling Mythic and charged up some energy in his hand. The energy pulsed as it grew larger and then he fired it.

“Take this!” Raze yelled as Mythic was engulfed in the blast.

A large explosion propelled Mythic into the earth below. Raze flew through the black smoke toward the area where Mythic landed. He touched the ground and saw the impact zone not too far away.

Mythic continued to returning his health as he broke the stones above his form. His magical aura was slowly dying as was his own body.

‘If I continue to face this creature, then I will surely die...’ His thought trailed off as Raze walked towards him.

“It looks like you’re running out of strength.” Raze finished while stopping before Mythic.

The trees around them moved in the breeze as Mythic coughed, “I already know that… If I continue, death is the only route…” He trailed off while wincing as his bones reformed.

“Then I will end it for you.” Raze said while pulling his hands to the side and cupping them together.

“No, I don’t think that will be necessary!” Mythic yelled as he felt for his magic and summoned a bright flash light.

Raze felt his eyes began to sear in pain from the bright light as Mythic disappeared within the golden flash. He put his hands to his eyes as the light died down and immediately started rubbing them.

“AGH! My eyes!” Raze yelled while trying to get rid of the blinding white light he still saw.

~Inside the TARDIS~

“So… You’re actually an alien, Time Turner?” Rainbow asked while looking at him.

“I’m the Doctor and yes, I’m an alien who time travels.” The Doctor said to the confused pegasus.

“Well, ah never thought that there were any other aliens besides Raze and the blonde guy.” Applejack said to the Doctor who was about to say something only for Rainbow to butt in.

“Shouldn’t we get moving before anything get’s destroyed?!” Rainbow asked as the Doctor smiled.

The Doctor turned to his screens and saw that they had moved to fight underneath Canterlot “They both moved to below Canterlot and we’ll be there soon!” He galloped to his control panel and began to flip switches.

“Off we go! Allonzy!” He pulled a lever down at the same time which caused the ship to shake and fly off towards the underside of Canterlot.

Not to far away from where the TARDIS left, an Alicorn awoke from her unconscious state. Luna rose up from the ground where the electricity had already left the area surrounding her.

She looked around and quickly teleported out of the area. Luna appeared in the castle courtyard and spotted Twilight immediately.

“Twilight Sparkle! We wish to know what happened here!” Luna exclaimed while walking up to see Twilight.

As Luna got closer she noticed that Twilight was with Octavia and something alabaster laid upon the ground, “SISTER?!”

She closed the gap far quicker this time and stopped before the unmoving body. She bent down and stuck her muzzle into the fur covering her sister’s body.

Then she let out a pitiful wail as Twilight and Octavia moved in to comfort her.

~With Raze~

He finally felt the last of the painful stinging as he slowly opened his eyes again, “Damn it! Where’d he go?!”

Raze looked around quickly trying to get an idea of where Mythic had went and a small golden glimmer of what may have be a fading trail could be seen.

“Got you!” Raze yelled while running forward only for a strong stomach pain to hit him all of a sudden.

He immediately fell to his knees and gripped his stomach, ‘What’s happening to me?!’ He questioned as he looked down to see a bunch of marks on his stomach.

‘W- What is that?!’ Raze thought while it continued to burn upon his front.

“You could never be rid of me, you know that!” A familiar voice yelled to him.

Raze felt his super saiyan form beginning to wear out. His hair changed back to it’s normal black color and his strength decreased to it’s base power.

‘Fhaze, what are you doing?!’ Raze yelled back at the spirit.

‘I’m escaping! What does it feel like?! I’m returning to my part of the body!’ Fhaze roared as the seal began to disappear.

Raze hit the ground completely as Fhaze broke the entirety of the seal. Raze felt himself floating into unconsciousness as he heard the last words from his darker half.

‘Just be lucky that it took most of my power to break that, or I’d have taken your body by now! Oh, and I guess your quarry escaped, too bad.’ Then Raze’s mind faded off as sleep overtook his body.

Author's Note

New chapter! :D

Season 2 Celestial Secrets and the Summoning

In a mountain range to the northeast of Canterlot, a large waterfall emptied into the earth, seemingly falling from the heavens themselves. A large lake, filled to the brim with this water, flowed into a river out to sea. It’s here that we find the antagonist currently residing.

Mythic had teleported from one area to the next, trying to make sure that he had actually gotten away from that behemoth. His power, depleted due to constant teleportation, would need to recharge. He found a cave to hide in underneath the falls that would assure him tranquility as his strength returned.

The water fell to the front of the cave with a soothing crashing sound that Mythic enjoyed thoroughly. His mind slowly recessed so that he could sleep while consistently recharging his strength.

‘It was… perfect… Despite the minor fall out… I have won…’ His thoughts stuck with that as a final victory.

~In Canterlot~

Raze slowly opened his eyes. He looked around only to find everything was blurry, so he tried to rub his eyes but felt something soft against his left arm as he attempted to moved it.

He moved his right arm and found it to be mobile. While rubbing the sleep and blurriness, he heard a gasp from his left side.

“He’s awake!” He found his vision encompassed by gray fur and forelegs hugging him as he moved to sit up.

Raze knew it was Derpy at this point. “Yeah, I’m awake!” he said.

The Doctor trotted over as Derpy finally let go. “You’ve been out for quite a while there, Raze. I’ve got to wonder what Mythic did…” He trailed off.

Raze thought back to Fhaze suddenly reappearing and shook his head, “I don’t know, but he got away…” Raze frowned while acknowledging his failure.

Discord looked up from where he lay beside the late Princess Celestia. He seemed to have been crying all the while. Twilight and Octavia looked unsure of what to do with him.

“Did you manage to kill him?!” Discord exclaimed to Raze.

“Well, no I-” Raze said as Discord stopped him by popping up in front of him.

“You have to kill him! He must suffer for his actions! Go back and find him, Raze!” Discord yelled as Raze slowly shook his head.

“He got away… Sorry, Discord…” Raze trailed off as Discord turned away with anger evident upon his face.

The Doctor stepped up, “Don’t be angry at Raze for something that was beyond his own control. We have other things to worry about at the moment anyway,” he finished while looking over to Celestia’s body.

Twilight nodded, “Actually, Celestia wanted you to know something, Raze.”

Raze tilted his head in confusion, “Know what?”

“She told me that she had found some items called, ‘Dragon Balls’. She also said that you’d know what to do with them,” Twilight said quickly.

“The Dragon Balls are here?!” Discord jumped up and appeared beside Twilight in seconds.

“Why did you not say so?!” Discord exclaimed to which Twilight jumped back.

“She told me to tell, Ra-” Discord gripped her front forelegs.

“Whatever! Doesn’t matter now! We can bring Celestia back and still have an extra wish! By Chaos, Mythic never won!” Discord exclaimed while moving around in a circle with Twilight flying around everywhere.

“Well, aren’t the Dragon Balls a myth?” Raze asked while trying to remember what the books written by Son Gohan had said.

“No! Not at all! Gohan hid the knowledge so nobody would use them, yet people eventually found them anyway!” Discord said while putting a confused and dizzy Twilight down.

“So then?” Raze started.

“We have two wishes! Anything we want! We can bring back all the innocents who died by Mythic. With the second one, we could do anything!” Discord stated with a large toothy grin.

“Well, what are we waiting for?! Let’s go get them! Did she tell you how to find them, Twilight?” Raze asked the Alicorn.

“Uhhh… No,” Twilight said with small frown.

Discord frowned, then smiled, then frowned again. “So, let me guess this straight. She says she has them, but never told you where she put them?” He questioned Twilight with a twitchy left eye.

“HEY! Leave Twilight alone you big ole snake! Celestia couldn’t have said much if she wanted to!” Rainbow shouted at Discord.

Discord moved back slightly in shock. “She didn’t tell you before she kicked the bucket?!” he cried. “No matter! I’ll find them with the help of Raze!” He turned to Raze, expecting backup on the situation.

“Well, I’ll definitely help try to find them!” Raze quickly said as Octavia jumped up.

“Knowing Celestia, she probably put them in her room. I will assist you both in finding them,” Octavia stated as Twilight smiled in thanks.

“Okay, I’ll stay with Celestia. Just hurry up!” Twilight said while moving away from the Draconequus.

The Doctor quickly joined the group, “We can speed up the process. If you want us there.” Derpy nodded as Octavia gave them a curt nod.

“I don’t see any issues with this, let’s continue,” Octavia said while hurrying toward the hole in the castle.

The rest of the gang followed her into the nearly ripped apart insides.

~Before Celestia’s Room~

The explosive fight had turned what was once double doors into a solitary one that hung on by a hinge. Raze ignored that one and stepped onto the already broken slab of wood that had hit the floor and brought cracks to the surface.

“Wow, this took a beating!” Raze said while moving forward into the luxurious room.

Octavia filed in afterward with the rest of them, “We’re not here to sightsee, only to get what we came for.”
“I’m sure he understands the sentiment,” Discord bluntly told Octavia who frowned at the spirit.

The Doctor trotted past them. “No need to start a quarrel! Save it for later, we’ve got things to do!”

Raze moved around the room while looking all over the place. “Just a bunch of mirrors and dressers… Are any of you sure she’d hide them here?”

Discord nodded. “She’s never been good at hiding things. Like keeping the Elements in a room with big doors was a smart idea.”
Octavia narrowed her eyes whilst opening a door to reveal a luxurious bathroom. “Do not insult her, Discord. Or you can be sure to have a taste of my hoof.”

“Look at the pony whinny,” Discord stated offhandedly.
The Doctor was pulling random books from a resident bookshelf. A pile grew beside him steadily as he took more and more of them down.

Derpy opened the curtains to provide a bit more light from the moon. “Well, if they’re not here. Where else would they be?” she asked.

Discord looked around. “We should probably look for a long hall and big doors.”

Octavia face hoofed and then shook it off. “I’m sure if we continue looking around here, we’ll eventually find them.”

Raze walked along the side of the room. “There are so many books in here…”

Octavia looked around the dressers that seemed be stacked with many piles of parchment. Upon opening the drawers she found many things, but nothing that would reveal the location of the Dragon Balls much to her chagrin.

Discord teleported around the room randomly throwing parchment all over the place along with messing up everything else on his war path. His only prospect was making a large scale mess.

Discord crossed his arms in frustration. “This is ridiculous, I wish this was like trying to find the Elements of Harmony. At least then we’d have a chance.”

Raze started pulling out books. “Let’s just take everything off the shelves! Maybe something will happen.”

Derpy landed down beside Raze and nearly got hit with a book. “I’ll go check a different shelf!”

She galloped over to the next one and started pulling books. Pretty soon the rest of the group were pulling down books until large piles of them filled the floor of the room.

The Doctor huffed a bit, “We’ve pulled all the books, there’s nothing left…”

Sure enough, the shelves were completely barren.

“This doesn’t make any sense! She never hides things this well! I’m honestly shocked!” Discord exclaimed while his hands floated away from his body.

Octavia huffed a little, but kept slightly calm despite wanting to knock him out. “She is cryptic sometimes, maybe there’s a clue around here somewhere.”

Raze walked over to the main fireplace and saw two statues along with many different pictures going up the main chamber. “What’s all this?” he wondered.

He saw many pictures of a younger looking Celestia, Discord, and even Luna hanging on the wall. Most of the pictures had been painted at first, but then went to gray only for the most recent ones to be color.

Raze put his right hand on a statue and leaned on it while looking down the wall of pictures. The statue’s head tumbled open as Raze lost his grip and stumbled over only to catch himself by floating with ki.

After regaining his footing he looked over to see that the statue’s head opening had revealed a button. “Hey guys, I just found something!” Raze stated as everyone turned to him.

Discord appeared from behind him and took a look at the button. “There’s no way that this could possibly be what we’re looking for…” He trailed off while pressing it himself just as the others joined the Draconequus and Saiyan.

The fireplace began to shake and then slid upwards to reveal a long staircase leading down, seemingly lit by torches lining the walls a little ways in.

The Doctor smirked. “Looks like we shouldn’t have bothered with those books after all. But now we have a new question. Who’s going down there first? I’ll volunteer if nobody feels up to it.”
Discord shook his head. “I can try it myself!”

Without waiting, He flew towards the opening. Within seconds he was sent flying backward by an invisible force.

“Nothing will enter this place…” A voice trailed off slowly as smoke began to rush out of the supposed entrance to the hiding place of the Dragon Balls.

The smoke began to form together to create a body that had a human-like torso and a large horse body beneath that. His four legs and arms were well toned and he seemed to be quite a strong looking individual.

“I assume that Celestia has been beaten and that you are here to collect the items she summoned me to guard, is that right?” The Centaur asked them with an inquiring look upon his face.

Octavia nodded. “Yes, now if you will allow us to do s-”

A strong hoof smashed into the ground creating a large crushing noise as it went straight through the marble floor. “Silence! You will turn back, she told me explicitly that nobody is to pass through here! Only if you are to defeat me, will I ever move,” he growled.

Discord appeared on the Centaur’s back. “That was very rude of you! You haven’t even told us your name and you threw me back! I demand an apology,” Discord demanded while crossing his arms.

Immediately, he tried to grab Discord only to find that the Draconequus was nowhere near him. He now floated next to the group.

Taking a second to process this, he finally found a response. “A name? Why would I give my name to such a worm?!” He roared back to Discord.

“Because we have someone who’s more than capable of handling you. Right, Raze?!” Discord asked.

Raze looked over at the Centaur. “Well, yeah! You do look pretty strong!” he said, sizing up the Centaur.

The Centaur scratched his chin. “What are you supposed to be? What kind of name is, Raze?”

Raze walked up to him. “A pretty good one!” he said. “Now, I think they asked you to move. So let them go, I’ll fight you instead!”

He smirked down at the saiyan and started to chuckle, “Hehehe… You’re hilarious. Just look at you! You’re so small and brittle looking. Just move asi-”

Raze grabbed his arm and threw him to the other side of the room where he crashed into Celestia’s bed. It broke apart upon contact with the four hundred pound musclebound Centaur. He was soon buried by the top of the bed falling down.

Raze looked at the others and said, “Go on ahead, I’ve got this.”

Derpy smiled and looked to the Doctor. “Well, you’re going first, right?” she asked him.

“Yes, let’s hurry up!” The Doctor moved for the stairs quickly followed by Octavia, Discord, and Derpy.

The pieces of the bed blasted aparted as the Centaur rose from the pile. “Maybe I misjudged you slightly.”

“You haven’t even begun to do that yet!” Raze retorted while running toward the creature.

He thrust his fist toward the creature only for it to be caught. “I’m not as weak as you may think, I was only off guard that first throw!” the Centaur said.

Raze pushed himself up with his legs and delivered a swift kick that was caught by the second hand of the centaur. Raze was now at the mercy of the creature below. He let go of Raze’s fist and charged for the wall, holding Raze by one leg as he smashed him into the wall. The extreme force carried Raze into the next room.

The wall lay crumbled to pieces while Raze was thrown to the other side of the room and then charged by the half-human beast. Raze got up a bit shakily due to the unexpected strength of the summoned opponent.

“If you were wondering-” The Centaur started as Raze regained himself and smashed his foot into the marble, making sure to put just enough power into it in order for a piece of the floor to become a makeshift seesaw.

The Centaur launched into the air as Raze flew up after him, delivering a barrage of punches to the creature and then slamming him into the floor with a jarring kick to the side.

Raze landed soon after. “Care to finish that sentence?!”

The Centaur got up and turned to face Raze quickly. “Yes, I do. After all, this facade is hard to keep up. I will tell you my name.”

Raze frowned. “Does that really matter so much to you? After all, you’re supposed to be guarding things from us.”

“To be honest, I’m not impartial to those trinkets she hid down there. I’m more indebted to an old friend. A wizard from long ago named, Starswirl. Oh, and on the subject of names. My name is, Scorpan,” he finished while walking toward Raze.

Raze got on the defensive. “Are you really going to try and fight me still?”

“Yes, because I haven’t left the badlands since this incident. I wish to stretch, and Princess Celestia offered me that with the promise of a villainous evil to deal with, yet you are not evil as I know. So, I am left with the only option,” Scorpan said while stopping before Raze.

“Fight me? At least I’m guessing, but this turn of events doesn’t make any sense! And how are you so strong anyway?” Raze asked him.

“You asked me why I am strong!? Well, the answer is obvious! You’re just weak!” Scorpan roared while scraping his hooves against the marble floors.

Raze stepped back slightly. “We’ll see about that! Let’s finish this!” He ran toward Scorpan as he charged back in turn.

“RAAAAAAAAHHHH!” Raze yelled as he pulled back his left fist.

“RRRRRAAAAAAAGGGGHHHH!” Scorpan roared as he pulled back his right fist.

Both fists collided with explosive results as both fighters were sent flying away from each other. Raze crashed against the floor as did Scorpan.

Scorpan pushed himself up slowly with his left arm and strong hooves. ‘My right arm feels like jelly… Urgh!’ Once he stood completely up, he felt his right arm shivering from the impacting blow.

He gripped it as he heard a loud crashing noise in front of him. Raze was already back on his feet and ready for the next attack.

“Get rea-” Raze heard Derpy’s voice call out and turned away from Scorpan.

“We’ve got the Dragon Balls!” she exclaimed joyously.

Scorpan looked to his right arm and then back at Raze. “We appear to have met an impasse, but I refuse to accept total defeat. I believe that we will have to continue another day, Raze.”

Raze nodded, “I guess so…” He trailed off

“Perfect, now if you two don’t mind. I’ve got a wish to make!” Discord stated while hefting a bag onto his back.

Raze followed the group only to notice that Scorpan wasn’t moving. “Hey, why’re you just standing there?” He asked the centaur.

“Because, I’ve done my task set forth. I’ll be leaving soon enough,” Scorpan finished. Raze prepared to walk back over to him only to be stopped by a gray hoof.

“If Celestia thought you were important enough to be here, then you should come out of this castle with us. It’s what she would want, Scorpan,” Octavia said to the large Centaur.

Scorpan looked down at the pony and then back to Raze. “Hmmmm… I suppose that I could join you all…” He trailed off while a smile dawned on Octavia’s face.

“Then let’s go!” Raze exclaimed as they both joined him and followed the others out of the ruined castle.

~Outside~

Twilight laid beside Celestia’s body while rubbing the light pink mane with her right hoof. Luna’s tears had finally ceased, leaving dried stains below her eyes.

Even the wind seemed to have stopped, leaving nothing but silence as their companion, almost as if mourning alongside them both.

Twilight sighed, “maybe I should have been here with her before all this. If we had all teamed up, we could have stopped Mythic…” She trailed off as Luna shook her head.

“We know for a fact that he was stronger than any enemy you’ve fought against before. Thou shouldst know that thou did the best We knew thou could. Our sister would agree,” Luna stated while watching Tia’s hair blow slightly with the wind.

“What’s with all the sappiness, Luna?!” Exclaimed a new voice as Luna gritted her teeth and stared at the Draconequus before them.

“Stop being so sad! We have a solution! She won’t be dead long!” Discord stated as he set down the bag and began to take out one orange orb out at a time.

Soon, they were all next to each other in a very mixed fashion. The others walked up, but kept a little distance away as Discord watched the seven magical balls glow before him.

“Arise, Shenron!”

~End of Chapter~

Here ya go. Enjoy~

Season 2 A Grand Return

The sky became pitch black as a great sparking energy rose into the sky. Clouds covered the lightning as it spread out past the blanket of black clouds. The light coming from the dragon balls became a long line of green scales, spiky brown back, and a long tan belly that became longer and longer as the arched.

Waves of light passed in and out of the clouds as the end of the body was reached. A draconic body flew downward toward the Draconequus who had summoned him.

"I am Shenron, The Eternal Dragon! I've come to grant you three wishes!" He finished as the ponies looked on in shock.

“What the hay is that thing?!” Rainbow gaped at the large figure that hung ominously over the castle.

Twilight looked upon the glowing orbs and back at the giant dragon with a scoff, “This isn’t possible!”

Octavia had seen stranger things in her time and quickly waved it off. “Will this Eternal Dragon be able to grant the power to return Celestia among all the others killed to life?” She asked Raze.

“Well, according to legend… It should be able to do that easily.” Raze stated while stepping forward to stand beside Discord.

Fluttershy had fallen unconscious while being held up by Rarity. “The poor dear couldn’t take it!” She summoned her magic and a large couch appeared from behind her.

Quickly, she placed Fluttershy on it and then turned to hear Discord speak. “Well, it’s certainly nice to meet you, Shenron! And I certainly do have two wishes for you to hear!”

Discord took a moment before continuing. “For the first one, I wish that Celestia would come back to li- oof!”

Octavia interrupted him immediately with a semi hard hoof to the stomach. “Stop for just a moment, what about everypony else killed by Mythic?”

Discord scoffed, “What about them? We have two wishes for a reason! Bring back Celestia first, then the others!”

Octavia shook her head. “But we could bring back them all with one wish if worded correctly!” She looked back up at the Dragon warily while Raze walked nodded in understanding.

“I got it! Hey, Shenron!” Raze exclaimed as the dragon turned to him.

“Can you bring everyone back to life who was killed by Mythic during his attacks on the Royal Guard and Canterlot with their bodies intact?!" Raze finished as the dragon’s eyes began to glow a deep crimson.

“That is well within in my power!”

In multiple areas, ponies began to return to the world one by one.

Light began to spread around the area as ponies began to reappear all around the area. Shocked gasps were heard around the clearing.

Guards all over looked around as golden light seemed to shower down, ponies appeared all around as the light spread.

Raze looked up at the beast while its eyes glowed red. Shenron focused the energy to come toward the last point as light slithered below Raze’s feet and the hooves of the ponies standing around the Dragon Balls.

It seemed to meet up with other energies right where Celestia’s body lay. She glowed golden for a second only to turn back to her normal colors still unmoving.

Twilight frowned. “Why isn’t she moving?”

“It’s taking a bit longer for her. Celestia’s power is slowly igniting as is the sun.” Shenron stated as his eyes stopped their glowing.

“And that is your first wish as requested. Let’s hear your second wish!” Shenron demanded the group.

“Can you wait a bit, Shenron?!” Raze asked the dragon.

“I suppose that I could.” Shenron said begrudgingly.

“Thanks, Shenron!” Raze shouted back.

Twilight walked over to Celestia’s body. “Celestia? Are you ba- AH!” She felt the wind pick up and saw orange sparks of energy bolting up around Celestia’s form.

Warm light spread out from her and washed over every being nearby. Raze felt the raw heat in the glow spreading throughout his body. Raze looked around and saw that the other ponies had become glossed gold by the light.

Celestia’s body began to float into the air as the light began to beat outward. Spreading further than even the boundaries of Canterlot as the darkened sky created by Shenron was broken through by the light of the sun.

As the ponies and Raze stared at her form floating ever higher into the sky, she seemed to become blurred out as intense heat began to take the area. Celestia’s body sparked once more and that’s when she was surrounded by a large wreath of flames.

~Light~

‘Wake up my child.’ Said an all encompassing voice.

Her eyes slowly cracked open only to shut quickly as the light flashed into her eyes. She had expected pain, but found that she could only feel warmth from the light.

‘Do not fear the light. Open your eyes my child.’ The calm voice reiterated.

Once more, she slowly opened her eyes. Before her sat an outline that seemed to be an alicorn in structure. Glowing white eyes looking back into her magenta ones.

“Now that we’ve finally seen each other. It’s time to begin, Celestia.” The glowing alicorn stated to the confused Celestia.

“What do you mean? Where am I?” Celestia asked the being who slowly walked around her.

“I meant that you’re about to see a part of your life that had been forgotten. As for where you are… It should be obvious to you. Look over here.” The glowing alicorn lifted her hoof and sliced downward.

All at once, the light split apart showing what appeared to be a planet below. “I am a part of you that can see the world when at my full glory. Do you know where we are now?”
Celestia gasped when she looked upon the planet, “Incredible!” She then looked back at the glowing figure.

“We must be in the sun!” She exclaimed as the figure nodded.

“Indeed you are, Though you would be more correct to say that you’re within me for I am the sun.” The Sun said to her.

Celestia sat upon her haunches as sudden realization set in. “Am I about to die?”

“No. You’re about to return once we finish this ritual.” The Sun told her as it sat in front of her.

“What does this ritual entail?” Celestia asked the Sun.

“Your memories and a power that you took from yourself over three hundred years ago are to be returned today to mark that you’ve been truly reborn. Now, get ready.” The Sun began to glow ever brighter and surround Celestia in its gripping light.

Celestia desperately tried to escape as her eyes widened and a memory flashed into her mind.

She seemed to be looking through another set of eyes. She saw the familiar tapestries of a room farther in her past.

‘Is this my throne in the past?’ Celestia questioned herself.

She looked around and noticed that several guards appeared to be speaking.

“Your Highness, It seems as though we’ve driven back the Changelings easily enough, but I’m sure they’ll be back for revenge soon enough.” The first guard said.

“We shouldn’t worry about them. They’re too crippled to be a massive threat. It will take them many years to come back to a full fighting force. Meanwhile, we shall focus on the present. Now, please go make sure that everypony is alright.” Celestia’s own voice returned to the guards.

“Yes, Your Highness!” The Guard turned back to his troop.

“Fall out and check on your comrades!” They left immediately leaving Celestia sitting upon her throne.
The doors had shut seconds ago only to be opened again. Though it seemed that the force opening them was quite a bit smaller than usual.

Celestia looked up allowing her present self to view the doors.

A small blond haired boy poked his head in before slipping the rest of the way in. He quickly shut the doors and looked up at Celestia’s past self with a smile showing pure delight.

“Momma! I’m so glad your back!”

Celestia’s future self gasped as the memory broke apart and information began to cycle into her mind. Twenty-five years of old memories breaking into the forefront of her mind. Celestia felt the a wellspring of energy bursting to life in her body.

And not just life, but pure unadulterated power seeping into her very being. Her mind alight in the molten fire that flashed from the sun, Celestia felt like she’d just climbed the tallest mountain. That was just the beginning.

~The Castle Foregrounds~

Celestia opened her eyes upon feeling the fires of the heavens themselves opening inside her body. Her muscles finally unrestricted by death, she flexed them. Feeling them respond she focused her magic and broke the ball of fire around her causing every single creature in the vicinity to look in her direction.

Twilight gasped, “She’s back! Princess!” She began to trot over merrily as Celestia’s flapping wings slowed down as she descended to the ground.

The light that had spread over the land of Equestria also began to wane and return to Canterlot. All over the land, creatures of all types were left in confusion of the strange phenomenon.

In Ponyville, every single pony that had been evacuated out of Canterlot felt the warmth leave them. Several soldiers stood to the side clad in armor watching the light travel up the side of the mountain.

Vladimir watched with extreme curiosity as several other soldiers gathered around to behold the spectacle.

He narrowed his eyes. “Of course she’s back…”

The light stopped at the borders of Equestria, leaving the land to bask in warmth for all of a few moments before it began to recede rapidly back to it’s owner. A glowing yellow orb that began to crack before the small group of ponies and one saiyan.

Breaking out of the ball of energy revealed a still glowing form that slowly lowered to the ground. Raze and the others stepped back slightly shielding themselves from the intense glow as it began to walk over to them.

The first stride from Celestia saw her glow dim as her features began to show. She was slightly taller than normal. Her eyes appeared to glow as if the sun was truly awakened in her being. Her jewels adorned with her attire glowed a golden orange.

She smiled, “I’m glad to be here with you all again.”

At first nobody said anything, but then Luna, Twilight, and Octavia galloped forward. They jumped at her causing them to all hit the ground. Tears of joy cascaded down the three ponies muzzles as they hugged Celestia.

Celestia’s power dropped downward until her form became natural again.

The rest of the group walked forward crowding around Celestia while Raze and the Doctor stayed back.

The Doctor looked over to Raze. “You know, things won’t always be this good.”

Raze frowned. “I think that I’ve figured that out by now.” He turned to the Doctor.

“Do you already know something?” Raze asked him.

“Ah… I had an old friend, Raze. She was quite the personality, but she had the best kind of saying for these kinds of things. Spoilers…” He trailed off while trotting over to the group of ponies.

Raze watched the group before deciding to join them. Unsure of what’s next on this journey of life.

Author's Note

I'm very sorry for the length of this chapter. If I had wrote anymore, it would have been forced. The quality would have diminished and I don't like doing that. That being said, I hope you all enjoy it.

Raze's Journey Chapter 24

As the group dispersed from Celestia except for Luna who stood next to her sister indefinitely. They found that Shenron was still waiting for them.

Shenron grunted, “Now that you’ve had that moment, I believe that we have two more wishes to be granted. Speak them now so that I may go.”

Raze looked over to the group of ponies. “Was there anything else that we could have wished for? Like how about fixing all the buildings destroyed by Mythic?” He asked them.

Celestia looked to her sister who shook her head and then to Raze. “I don’t think you should waste a wish on something that will be easily solved. Ponies around here have amazing work ethic.”

Raze nodded. “Anyone else?”

When nobody said anything, Raze turned back to Shenron. “Can you give me a few minutes to think of something?” He asked the slender dragon.

Shenron grumbled in annoyance, but replied anyway. “I suppose that I can allow that. Think fast though.”

Raze nodded. “Thanks! Now what should it be…” He trailed off while scratching his chin.

He thought back to the times when his mother and godfather were both alive. If any wish is going to be made, Its gotta be for them.

Raze’s decision being made in all of a few seconds, he found himself looking back up at the towering, Shenron.

“Shenron! I’ve got my next wish! I wish for you to bring back my mo-” Raze was interrupted as the dragon’s golden aura sparked outward.

Shenron grumbled once more at the interruption. “What is it this time, Garuth?!” He questioned angrily.

~Within the mind of Shenron~

“Sorry for the interruption, but may I speak with Raze before he makes a drastic mistake?” Garuth asked calmly.

Shenron’s red eyes widened. “You do realize that he is about t-”

“To wish me and his mother back, yes. I do realize what I’m stopping.” Garuth gruffly said while composing himself.

“Very well, I’ll allow you to speak with him.” Shenron began to focus on Raze once more.

“I must ask that you sit down, Raze.”

“What? Why?” Raze asked him.

“Just do it.” Shenron told him.

Raze looked at the others behind him and then back to Shenron. “Well, I guess it wouldn’t hurt.” Raze complied and sat down crossing his legs as Shenron’s eyes glowed brighter.

“What’s happenin- Ghh!” Raze grunted as he fell into a bright pit of light.

Raze felt no wind passing by as he fell and saw that the tunnel surrounding him glowed in golden light. ‘This is incredible! But when do I rea- AH!” He hit the ground at the end of the tunnel with a loud crashing sound.

Dust and rock flew up from the impact area as Raze picked himself up. Brushing the dust off his clothing he looked around.

‘Where am I?’ Raze pondered while looking around the landscape.

A pleasant field greeted his view, flowers blew in the wind and someone appeared to be standing at the top of a hill. Raze looked up warily before his eyes widened.

He took a step back in shock and that’s when the figure walked up to him.

“It’s been a while, Raze.” The figure grunted.

“G- G- Garuth?!” Raze exclaimed.

“Stop that, Raze! We don’t have time for disbelief! The dimensions are closing fast!” Garuth remarked quickly while turning around.

“But while you’re here. There is something I have to say.” Garuth remarked.

Raze shook his head. “No! You can’t just say that to me! You took a ki bullet for me and I never got to thank you!”

Garuth turned back to him causing Raze to step back again, “If it’s any consolation, you’re welcome for that. But if you’re trying to repay me and your mother, you’ll stop yourself from wishing us back!”

“Wha?! How’d you know that I wa-” Raze tried to step forward, but Garuth narrowed his eyes.

“You’re too predictable and if you actually managed to succeed… Well, his changes would never have happened.” Garuth said to Raze who wore a look of confusion.

“Changes?” Raze questioned.

“He’s become a better man than he has ever been. The start was losing his wife and then his most trusted advisor. He’s been doing things differently as of late. He brought the planets together under peace and thus is making peace with himself.” Garuth said as he pointed a finger in Raze’s direction.

“And the final loss is you. Three losses have shaken him to his core and he now seeks to become the greatest king of them all. That is thanks to us. Luckily enough, you never had to die for it. Now, use that wish for something else, perhaps your two new Godchildren.” Garuth finished with a smile.

Raze looked around as the world began to blink in and out of existence.

He looked to his godfather with conviction and a smile of his own, “Can I ask you one last thing?”

“Quickly, Raze.” Garuth motioned with his hand to for him to continue.

“Tell my mother that I love her an-” The world came rushing back to him and his eyes opened.

Shenron looked to him, “Now you’re back. What are your last wishes?!” He demanded Raze.

Raze looked up with a smile. “I have an idea now! But lemme come up there so I can tell you a bit more quietly.”

Raze floated up to the dragon and leaned in to whisper the wishes. Then he flew back slightly while Shenron’s eyes began to glow.

“Easily done.”

~A Few Minutes Later~

The Dragon Balls sparked and floated off into the sky. Blasting into the vortex of dimensions as it finally collapsed inward. Raze landed on the ground while still looking up to the sky as it returned to it’s blue color.

The sun was high in the sky and a new day was upon them.

Raze turned and walked back toward the group of ponies with one centaur. “Well, I guess it’s all over.”

The Doctor arched an eyebrow at Raze. “What do you have in your hands?”

Raze smiled, “It’s two picture frames!”

“What did you get a picture of?” Derpy asked him.

“Everyone I met when we went to the other world. See?” He showed one of the pictures to the Doctor and Derpy.

“That’s great and all, but what about Canterlot?!” Rainbow spoke up as Raze frowned.

“Didn’t Celestia say that ponies were great builders?” Raze questioned her as Celestia nodded in confirmation.

“Yes, My Little Pony’s certainly do their best when they have plenty to do. In fact… Luna! We need to return everypony to Canterlot.” Celestia said while Luna agreed.

“We shall go oversee the efforts, but thou should stay and rest.” Luna said as Celestia used her very best hard stare she could muster.

Luna didn’t seem amused and that made Celestia back down with a sigh, “Very well, Sister. I’ll stay put.”

Luna smiled and turned to the ponies standing around them, “Then We are off. Watch her closely for Us.

Luna unfurled her wings and stretched them out. After a few test flaps, she seemed satisfied and blasted into the air. The resulting cloud of dust left behind blew threw the group of ponies and saiyan.

Twilight walked over to Celestia, “We should go at least survey the damage of the castle, right?”

“Of course we can, Twilight.” Celestia said to her as Applejack looked up.

“Ah can help ya with that.” She finished with a small smile.

Twilight smiled, “Sure! We’ll definitely need all the help we can get.” She looked over to her other friends who all nodded and followed Celestia off toward the castle leaving Raze to stand beside the Doctor and Derpy.

Raze sighed, “Looks like this is it.”

“No, I think it’s just beginning, Raze. Just because we’ve left the Twins doesn’t mean that it’s the last adventure.” The Doctor said to him as Raze shook his head.

“I didn’t mean it like that. I should have said it differently… Hmm… Ok, I meant that it was my last chance to go back. I could have wished to leave…” Raze trailed off as Derpy frowned.

“But we’d miss you if you just left like that.” Derpy said while patting his left comfortingly.

“And I wouldn’t be able to beat you in a race if you did leave.” Another voice said.

“Rainbow Dash?” Derpy questioned as she watched the pony trotting over.

“Who else?!” Rainbow finished with a smirk.

“I thought you went with the others.” The Doctor said as she shook her head.

“No way, I beat clouds down and destroy buildings. I’m not some kind of lousy archi… builder!” Rainbow finished while sitting on her haunches.

“A race huh? Seems like deja vu?” Raze said while thinking about the last two times he’d raced both versions of Rainbow Dash.

“What about our rematch? If you went anywhere, I’d just have to go home at this point.” Yet another voice had joined them.

Scorpan stood beside them all, yet his form was noticeably smaller then when he had fought Raze. In fact, it seemed to be a different form altogether. Yet nobody questioned it.

“Oh, we’ll definitely fight again. After all, I’m not going anywhere anytime soon.” Raze looked back the small group and then turned back to the pictures he held in his hands.

Raze turned to the Doctor, “Hey, Doctor?” He questioned as the time lord turned to him.

“Yes, Raze?” The Doctor returned with.

“Could you maybe take one of these to Ken and Kira?” Raze asked the him while showing the picture.

“I certainly can.” He took the picture and it mysteriously disappeared.

Raze looked at his hand and then back at the Doctor, “How did you do that?”

“Do what?” The Doctor asked him.

Derpy smiled, “Ponies have pockets!” She exclaimed.

Raze face palmed and everyone began to laugh until it became completely uncomfortable. The awkward silence broke up the small group and left Raze standing there by himself. He looked down at the picture while seeing Ken and Kira’s smiling faces.

“Hope you’re all having a good time.” Raze said while looking toward the sky with smile upon his own face.

Season 3 Rebuilding

~A Week Has Passed~

“Sir! The efforts to see everypony home have been going very well so far!” Random Guard #354 said while saluting his commanding officer, Vladimir who seemed to be detracted from his usual mindset.

“Good… If that’s all you have to say, then leave, Tinsel.” Vladimir excused him while turning away only for a large crash to be heard.

He immediately turned back to Tinsel who had fallen over in surprise.

“What the hay just happened?!” Vladimir questioned as a large burst of wind passed by him.

The gust knocked him off his hooves as yet another blast of wind traveled by him once more making him reel backwards. A troop of guards came trudging behind the two forces, but they were already panting in exhaustion.

Vladimir recovered with a shake of his head and looked at his guards as they all hit the ground.

“I’ll ask one more time, what just happened?!” Vladimir asked the group as one of them looked over to him.

“Uh… Sir…” He huffed a bit as he tried to straighten up.

“It’s... Raze and Scorpan....” The guard trailed off before falling back over.

“Oh, great…” Vladimir trailed off.

~Several Bursts Ahead~

Raze moved his legs as fast as he could while jumping over buildings to avoid the gargoyle like creature that followed him. Scorpan smirked as he followed Raze being just as adept as the saiyan in front of him.

“Hey! Slow it down, Raze! We’re supposed to fight for once!” Scorpan exclaimed as Raze stopped atop another building.

“I told you to knock it off! You know that I’ve been trying to help the workers out around here!” Raze said with a bit of anger evident in his voice.

Scorpan grinned, “Well, think of it as taking a break!” His hands flashed and he fired several blasts toward Raze who deflected them all while firing up his own aura.

“Well, if that’s what I gotta do! Let’s take it below Canterlot!” Raze shouted back to the minotaur who agreed with a nod.

“Very well, Raze!” Scorpan replied with as he followed Raze into the air.

Raze looked to him and then turned away, flying to the forest below Canterlot. Scorpan landed at the other side with fresh excitement in his eyes.

But just before they could start, a loud alarm filled the air. Raze looked around to see an entire air unit descending toward them. Pegasi of all kinds with specialized flight suits surrounded them.

One in particular made himself known, “Raze! Scorpan! Stop immediately!”

“We hadn’t managed to do much in the first place.” Raze stated to him.

Vladimir turned to him with exasperation littered on his face, “I get that you both may have things to settle, but you have other things that you promised Celestia that you’d finish. Right, Raze?” Vladimir questioned the saiyan.

“W- Well… Yeah…” Raze stammered a bit as Scorpan dropped his own magic.

“And what of you, Scorpan?” Vladimir asked him.

Scorpan frowned, “I suppose that this isn’t the best of times. Next time then, Raze.” Scorpan disappeared in a flash of white light.

The pegasi around him hardly noticed the flash thanks to their goggles and went back over to Vladimir who dismissed them quickly.

Raze shook his head and flew off toward the castle to resume the rebuilding effort. Flying over the city itself revealed that the battle had tore up a few buildings, but most of the damage had been caused by himself.

Not that he was willing to admit to that. Though, there was one place that he’d smashed… One place that he could not escape the blame from.

As he looked at that very place…

“What are you doing here? Are you going to make the mess even worse?!” The familiar voice sounded angered as Raze’s forehead developed a large sweatdrop.

“Uhhh… I swore that I said sor-” Raze moved to the side as a large chunk of Oak wood flew past where he’d been a second ago.

Raze could see her clearly and boy was Octavia angry, “Sorry isn’t sufficient! This isn’t just a small incident that can be fixed so easily!”

Raze frowned, “Look, I’m sure that I know someone who can help get this all done.”

“And so do I. I just don’t want to bother her…” Octavia trailed off while Raze’s eyes widened.

“Did you mean, Celestia? Because that’s what I was about to suggest!” Raze landed onto the ground next to her as she sighed.

“Yes, Raze. Celestia is exactly the pony I don’t want to bother.” Octavia said while trotting off.

Raze followed her, “What’s wrong with asking for help? I’m sure she’d try to help out all her subjects.”

“It’s not just that easy, Raze. How are you doing anyway?” She said while hoping he wouldn’t continue to pursue that direction of the conversation.

Unluckily for her, that wasn’t happening.

“I’m doing fine, but you clearly aren’t. Anyway, I’m heading to the castle to actually help move materials around. You should come along and maybe we can ask her together, or something.” Raze finished while Octavia groaned.

Octavia knew that she wouldn’t be able to avoid it, thus she relented, “Alright… Not like it wouldn’t have happened eventually.”

“Great! Let’s go!” Raze landed on the ground outside the building as Octavia landed near him.

Together, they walked toward the castle of Canterlot while passersby ponies looked at Raze inquisitively.

Discord watched as the guard ponies moved decorations around the area. He normally wouldn’t bother watching them, but Celestia had other things to do and she let him have the duty of overseer.

‘I swear that I’ll never figure out why rulers need a castle. I made do with a hill…’ Discord felt his boredom grow faster by the second.

He snapped his fingers and a large pink elephant appeared in the middle of the long hall. The working guards turned their heads as it reared it’s own head preparing to charge for the wall currently in front of it.

Narrowing its eyes, it sounded a cry and charged relentlessly. All the ponies around braced for an impact that never came.

“Discord!”

The elephant found itself stopped by Octavia who didn’t look amused. Raze smiled while walking over to him.

“What’s up, Discord?” Raze asked him as Octavia frowned at him.

“Did you not see him summon this thing?! Reprimand him!” She demanded Raze who frowned.

“It didn’t hurt anything…” He trailed off as a resounding click was heard and the Elephant disappeared causing Octavia to fall onto her stomach.

“Raze! Nice to see you back already. How was the fight?” Discord asked him.

“You didn’t see it? Usually you’re always watching when something like that starts up.” Raze said whilst scratching his head.

“Not today, I was left to oversee the reconstruction of this place after you two knocked that one guy through it.” Discord said as Octavia pushed herself up.

“Why would Celestia leave you of all the ponies around here to oversee reconstruction?” Octavia asked him while Discord shrugged.

“I have no idea, but she was acting a bit strange today. Just distant all of a sudden. I tried to pry, but she wouldn’t budge to me.” Discord said while drinking his chocolate milk.

“That’s pretty strange.” Raze finished as a large chunk of stone crashed behind him bringing up dust and pieces of marble flooring with it.

Octavia looked up to see several delivery ponies bickering about what just transpired. She sighed openly as Discord snapped his fingers causing the damage to disappear and for the stone to reappear in the truck.

“Hey, maybe that’s why he’s in charge.” Raze said as Octavia’s eyes widened.

“Aren’t you even a bit concerned with how close that got to hitting you?!” She asked him while he turned his head to the side.

“Should I be?” He asked her.

Octavia shook her head and face hoofed, ‘Oh, this is going to be one of those days...’ Her thoughts trailed off as Raze smiled.

“So, do you have any idea where Celestia might be, Discord?” He asked the spirit.

“Not at the moment… It appears that Luna has also been out of sight today. Though, that could be just her sleeping habits.” He said while moving through the air with a pillow in tow.

Octavia frowned, “So, they’ve just disappeared for no reason? This isn’t like them. At least it’s not like Celestia…”

Raze nodded, “I may not know them all that much, but after everything that happened a few days ago… It just doesn’t seem smart to not be here themselves.”

“Well, they might be searching for that guy you fought yesterday… What was his name again?” Discord rubbed his chin hair while swatting the air with an umbrella.

“His name was, Mythic.” Octavia said to them as Raze nodded.

“Yeah! But wait… Why would they be worried about him? Isn’t Celestia stronger than him now?” Raze questioned her as she nodded.

“I think that she has indeed surpassed him… So, there is literally no reason to fear him except for the fact that his sword works again.” Octavia finished as Discord smirked.

“Oh, yeah… That weapon of his is quite a dangerous thing. To think that Celestia made it for him… I wonder whe-” He stopped as Octavia grabbed him down.

“What?!”

Discord nodded, “Yes, if you noticed. The sword turned black and became useless when she lost her life. That means that it had to have been blessed by Celestia.”

Octavia’s eyes widened and she let go of him, “B- But that makes no sense!”

“It actually makes plenty of sense when you think of it and I actually hate that. She blessed it, so when he killed her, poof goes the magic. Bah! Let’s stop talking about sense though. I’m getting nauseous.” Discord said as he snapped his fingers disappearing in a puff of smoke.

He reappeared behind Raze, “At least Raze got him in the end. That’s probably for the best, because I was ready to actually kill him myself!”

“Yeah, it was kinda too easy. I wonder where he went off to.” Raze finished as Discord disappeared once again while making a clipboard appear alongside himself.

“Now, I could probably find him, but I doubt that Celestia wants us going after him. She seems different now for some reason. Though, I kinda like this change. She seems more loose than she’s been in awhile.” Discord said while looking up.

Raze followed Discord’s eyes upward to see the final stone placement had finally been placed upon the roof of the castle. He thought back to yesterday when he’d took his time to place all the support beams on the inside.

‘That was pretty tough…’ Raze thought while seeing blueprints and being lectured about placement constantly.

He shuddered and looked to Discord who seemed to be proud of himself as he made marks upon it.

Raze smirked, ‘He seems a little different too. Hmmm… Maybe the experience of losing someone changed him a bit.’

Discord looked up from the clipboard where he’d been doodling all sorts of things and gave the workers a thumbs up, “Good work! Now let’s get everypony over to those broken walls at once!” The guards reluctantly followed his orders as they began taking apart the stands they used to move things up the broken walls.

Raze got a glimpse of the clipboard seeing all sorts of random drawings and sighed, ‘Or not.’

~Meanwhile~

Water seemed to be streaming down a ledge into a large pool where a single pony sat in the middle. Steam rose up from the pool as another splash was heard from the opposite end.

A dark blue pony appeared to be moving toward the center, “Tia! We know thou have been here for too long!”

“Go away, Luna! I need more time!” Celestia said back to her sister as she tried to wade away from the incoming alicorn.

“We will not concede! Thou needs to be upon thine throne in thou’s day! We cannot keep covering for thee!” Luna shouted as she felt water being splashed at her.

Celestia continued splashing back at Luna as she felt herself being pelted with water in the form of large balls cascading down upon herself. She smirked and lit up her own horn as a large wave of water bashed Luna in the face.

Thus, the splash fight began.

HOLY SHIT! I UPDATED?!

ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED!

Season 3 Eat Your Greens

Season 4 Eat Your Greens

Chapter 26

“How did I get roped into this?” Octavia asked Raze who stood quietly beside her.

“To be honest, I don’t think I even expected this to happen…” Raze said while looking upon many battleships poised to launch doomsday upon the entirety of the planet.

Each ship held a hefty cannon on the front with many more down the sides. Metallic and shiny they were to any that looked up. Surely the town should be in a panic at this point. Yet it was strangely silent all below.

A smaller ship jettisoned out of the larger ships above landing before them spreading all sorts of dust particles. After properly landing the object in question it opened up.

“And is that?” Octavia questioned without knowing.

“Green?” Raze finished as several claws reached out of the ship gripping the sides of the doors.

A green head popped out with menacing pink eyes to match, “So very sorry sir and madam. Do you by any chance have an idea where the nearest topsoil is?” He took off his monocle that covered one half of his eyes (He has three).

Raze nodded slowly, “You see that store over there? There’s plenty of topsoil over there. It’s even got decent pricing. I’ll bet you don’t even have to waste your time syphoning it. Do you have gold? That’s always good currency here!”

“Hmmm… UNACCEPTABLE! We shall now duel for this planet’s topsoil!” He put his monocle on in a threatening way.

Suddenly, without much warning. (The monocle didn’t give it away.) Saibamen began raining down from the ships. Soon, the entire area was covered in green as if the draw distance couldn’t get much further than that.

Raze and Octavia took battle stances in the middle of the horde. Things did not look well for them as the largest Saibaman made them press the attack. The first crack was heard from Octavia’s side as she hammered a hoof into his body.

Raze fired off a ki blast causing many more to scatter avoiding the blast giving Raze the time to move forward and knock the fleeing Saibamen out of the way. But Raze wouldn’t get much further as the largest of the saibamen charged him.

Octavia jumped up and out landing on her hind legs as several Saibamen surrounded her. She smirked she hopped onto her front hooves while turning her body into a propeller of pain. Her back legs spinning in a circle three hundred and sixty degrees with terrifying results.

Some Saibamen lost body parts in her deadly attack while some merely dropped hard onto the unforgiving metallic ship. She jumped back onto her hind legs while moving forward bashing and smashing anything that got close to her.

Raze smirked thinking how easy a victory this would be as he punched the largest of them. He waited a second after making contact. His smile quickly formed into a frown as he moved backward quickly.

The saibaman stood still as could be, “Very troubling if I do say so myself. Is that all you have?”

Raze frowned, ‘This is worse than that dream where I got killed by a cape wearing bald -!’’ His inner thoughts cut off as an alien fist bashed him into the head causing him to go reeling backwards.

A kick crashed into his side causing Raze to be flung to the side of the ship. Trying to catch himself after the attacks, Raze found it nearly impossible. He fell off the ship only to stop in midair.

“Okay! That’s it!” His body buffed up as the a familiar yellow aura covered his body whilst his hair defied gravity.

The Ultimate Saibaman frowned as Raze floated upward, “Heh… Let’s try that again!” He flew forward as suddenly as he stopped. Time seemed to have frozen and large cracks appeared to be forming in different areas around them.

The entire area appeared to just be a grassy field behind a large house. Raze, Discord, and Octavia stood at different sides of the green field with looks of disbelief.

“Oh, that’s too bad. Couldn’t hold this thing up for that long…” Discord sighed despondently.

Raze let go of his form and fell backwards laying sprawled out on the ground that still managed to be soft and springy underneath him, “Can’t be helped. I think you may have added too many characters.” Raze said as Octavia trotted over to them both.

Octavia sat on her haunches, “Well, I believe that was interesting while it lasted.”

Discord looked at her, “You know what, Raze? I never asked, but now seems like a good time. When did she start living here?”

Raze smiled awkwardly as a sweatdrop appeared on his forehead, “Since she did.”

“He destroyed most of my home in the fight against, Mythic. You can piece together what happened after all that mess was sorted out.” Octavia finished while edging her eyes at Raze.

He frowned and threw his hands up shaking them while a large sweatdrop appeared on his face, “I thought we already were okay about it after I apologized so much!”

Discord smirked, “That’s rich! And here I thought it was because he asked you ouch!”

Octavia removed her hoof from his side and allowed him to kneel in pain.

“What was he about to say?” Raze questioned her as she rolled her eyes at Discord.

She turned back to him with a slight tinge of pink on her muzzle, “He was just saying that I was going to ask you about living arrangements.”

“Sure I was going to ask that…” Discord muttered while Octavia frowned at him.

“I’m pretty sure he wasn-” Raze tried to finish, but Octavia.interrupted him anyway.

“He did. Now I’ll be taking a shower if you two don’t mind.” Octavia said in a huff while heading toward the lavish home.

Raze frowned as he watched her open and then shut the door behind her, “Is she mad at us?” He asked Discord to which he got a shrug as an answer.

“I wouldn’t have much of a clue, Raze. Just be careful like Scorpan is when he listens in on conversations.” Discord finished as Raze adopted a confused face.

“What about Scorpan?” Raze asked as Discord snapped his fingers and revealed Scorpan to be five feet away from the both of them.

“That’s some very amateurish invisibility magic, Scorpan. You should probably stick to combat magic next time.” Discord said to him while Scorpan’s eyes widened.

“Was it really that obvious?” Scorpan asked him.

Discord nodded while Raze shook his head. Scorpan looked away, “Well, at least I managed to pull the wool over one of you.”

“What are you doing here anyway? Didn’t I tell you we’d fight some other time?” Raze asked him to which he nodded.

“You did, but I was just wanting to know how long it would be before our fight.” Scorpan said anxiously.

“I’ll be able to fight soon enough, but right now we’re all getting settled into this new place.” Raze said as Discord had a lightbulb turn on over his head.

Raze and Scorpan looked at it in confusion as Discord looked to Scorpan, “So, you’re anxious for a fight, right?”

Scorpan nodded, “It would be most beneficial. I’ve yet to use my full strength in combat and need to test what I’m capable of.”

“Perfect… Because right now in the twin’s world they’re having a tournament.” Discord said as Raze smiled.

“Oh, yeah! I remember seeing flyers about that! There were strong fighters coming from all over for it! That’d be perfect for you Scorpan!” Raze exclaimed with excitement in his eyes.

Discord then appeared next to Scorpan, “And you’d be able to go toe to toe with Raze’s niece and nephew. How is that for excitement?!”

Scorpan looked to Raze, “Are they strong?”

“They should be more than strong enough to give some sort of challenge, but just don’t go too far with it. Okay?” He asked Scorpan.

“I’ll try not to.” He assured Raze.

Raze nodded to Discord, “Well, you heard him. Go ahead and get the, Doctor!”

“Wait! Me?! What about you?!” Discord w
questioned Raze who ran to the backdoor of the home.

“Simple! You can teleport!” Raze exclaimed while closing the door behind him leaving Scorpan and Discord sitting by themselves.

“I’ve got your back covered, Scorpan…” Discord said while snapping his fingers and leaving Scorpan completely alone

~Derpy’s Homestead~

The Doctor was taking a nice shower when Discord poofed into existence before him with his own scrub brush handy, “I’ve also got your back too, Doc!”

“Why are you here!?” He exclaimed as the chapter ended.

I've decided that chapters can be as long as 1400 words to as long as I'd like them to be. So, that's how I'll do them from now on.

Besides that...

Writers block is gone now. So, expect updates sometimes. Thanks for all the upvotes and have a nice chapter for your waiting.

Season 3 Fight for the Sun

~Chapter 27 Fight for the Sun~

Two weeks have passed since the reconstruction had begun on the castle. Raze has just been dismissed to do what he likes as the finishing touches are being made. He has no idea what to do.

‘I have no idea what to do…’ Raze’s thoughts wandered around the lavish living room he now sat in.

‘Why am I even here?’ He questioned himself as Discord popped into the room.

“I’m back! How has your day been, Raze?” Discord questioned him as Raze edged off to the side of the couch he was sitting on.

“Just kind of bored, Discord… I haven’t heard from the Doctor, Derpy, or Scorpan. I’m beginning to wonder if they’re ever coming back.” Raze sighed despondently.

“You can’t just sit here and expect to be entertained.” Discord said while snapping up some chocolate milk for himself.

“Aww! Come on! How do you get through a day, Discord? I know you’ve had to be bored at some point.” Raze finished pointedly while turning over on the couch.

Discord sipped silently before setting down his glass, “That’s simple, Raze. I can just make anything I want happen, but you can’t do that.” He paused before looking at Raze once more, “I mean, it’s not as simple as looking at the door and expecting a fight to come to you.”

Then a loud knocking sound was heard as he finished his statement. He looked at Raze.

“That’s a coincidence, Raze.” He said as.Raze jumped up and walked to the door.

“Coincidence or not, I’m taking it.” Raze confidently said whilst opening the door.

“I certainly didn’t expect this…” Discord said to himself while staring at Celestia.

“I do hope that I’m not interrupting anything.” She said to Raze who smiled.

“You didn’t interrupt anything. Me and Discord were just discussing how we pass time. I’d been wondering about Scorpan since he wants to fight me and everything.” Raze said while looking to the side as Celestia herself smiled.

“I’d heard how Scorpan wanted to fight you and that seems interesting because now I’d like to give that a shot myself.” She finished with a wide eyed excited look adorning her face.

Raze looked at her and then back to Discord. Then at Celestia and back to Discord again.

“What did you do to her, Discord?” Raze asked him pointedly.

“Don’t point at me like that. I’m just as surprised as you!” Discord exclaimed while Celestia frowned.

“So, is that a no?” She asked as Raze turned to Discord.

“Is it a no?” He asked him.

Discord shrugged, “Maybe she suffered brain trauma in the fight with, Mythic.”

“I didn’t suffer brain trauma.” She said as Raze looked between them both with his own wide eyes.

“Do you have a fever then?” Discord questioned her while teleporting over and checking it with a magically conjured thermometer.

“Discord, I’m not sick.” She said as he took the thermometer out of her mouth.

“I don’t know… It says your pretty hot on here.” Discord said while Celestia frowned.

“Normally I wouldn’t mind you flirting, but you honestly think I wouldn’t stand a chance?” She asked him seriously as Discord poofed his items away.

“I’m not saying that you couldn’t it’s just that he is really strong.” Discord trailed off as Celestia’s wings flared out.

“Well, you won’t fight me seriously in a magic duel, so I figured that I would ask him instead.” Celestia said as Raze finally spoke up.

“Uhhh… I just want to say that I wouldn’t mind going against you.” Raze finished as Celestia’s wings lowered.

“That’s perfect, Raze. Now then…” She turned to Discord, “Can you make us a field strong enough to handle our fight?” She finished as he scratched his arm on the side.

“I can, but are you absolutely sure that today would be good and are are you vying to fight here?” He asked her as she smiled.

“Yes, here would be perfect. I know you can easily warp dimensions, so why not make a battlefield in his backyard?” She asked as Discord frowned.

“You were here a few weeks back weren’t you?” He asked her.

Celestia opened her muzzle in false shock, “Would you really accuse me of doing such things?”

Discord smirked, “Maybe not… But if you were here, you’d let me know, right?”

Celestia smiled once more, “Yes, I would let you know. So, I wasn’t actually around here, but I did talk with Octavia about it. She seems to be having quite a good time with you both.” She said to them as Discord seemed a little giddy at that.

“I knew she enjoyed hanging with us! Actually seems like they’re a lot of people that like watching our antics!” Discord exclaimed while looking toward a wall.

“People?” Celestia questioned as Raze frowned.

“Who are you talking to, Discord?” Raze asked as Discord smiled.

“Nobody in particular, so don’t worry about it.” He finished with a wink toward the people.

“Alright then… So, let’s get this going. I won’t lie, I think this is going to be really fun!” Raze finished with excitement showing all too easily.

“I can’t wait much longer myself.” She said while to Discord, “If you would. Please get a start on that, Discord.” She asked him nicely enough.

“If you insist…” He trailed off while snapping to the backyard.

~In the Backyard~

Discord looked around the nicely sized area and then put his hands together before cracking his knuckles, “Let’s get battle centric!” He snapped his fingers as large force field spread out around the area. Then he began snapping away.

A large arena in the middle, guest seating, banners, and one side filled with miniature versions of himself. They each wore a hat with mini Celestia and Raze pins on them. He snapped a few fountains on the walkway toward the circular fighting ring. Then he wiped sweat off his forehead.

“That was relatively fun, but now we need more than just me as an audience…” He trailed off as Raze and Celestia had found their way outside.

He turned to them with a smirk, “I’ll be back very soon! Don’t get too bored!” He snapped out of sight leaving Raze and Celestia alone with the audience.

“Wow, he really did pretty good with this setup!” Raze said while going to the hot dog stand next to the walkway to the arena.

Celestia followed him as he ordered his frankfurter. Raze frowned as he sniffed the thing, “What’s this supposed to be?”

The Discord at the stand shrugged, “You want pork and other byproducts?” Raze nodded expectantly.

“Then find a portal to your world or go hunting. This vendor is pony friendly!” With that, he harrumphed.

“Saiyans these days…” He trailed off in annoyance.

Raze walked over to Celestia and passed her the thing he refused to eat, “Thank you, Raze! This may not be cake, but I do love tofu occasionally. Also, please ignore the cake part…” She trailed off while taking a small bite of the tofu dog.

~Meanwhile~

“And they’re not back yet…” Discord snapped his fingers only to appear in a symphony next. He found his target to be currently on stage. He turned invisible and made his way quietly towards the back left hand side of that stage.

Octavia stood on her hind legs playing some sort of symphony. Discord couldn’t guess what the sound was, but he didn’t really care for it.

“Pssst! Octavia, behind you.” Discord whispered to her as Octavia frowned.

“Seriously. I’m right here and invisible.” Discord said a little louder as she her frown deepened slightly.

“Not now, Discord. I’m not able to talk.” She whispered while making sure to keep up with the large ensemble.

“You can’t speak, huh? Well, let me fix that.” He snapped his fingers.

~Backyard of Raze’s Place~

The entire row of cheering Discords disappeared in a flash leaving Raze and Celestia entirely confused.

“He’s doing something weird I bet…” Raze trailed off as Celestia finished her tofu dog.

“He always does and I’m sure it’ll be funny. Shame I can’t be there to see it.” She said while sitting on her haunches.

“It wasn’t funny and you didn’t miss anything.” Discord said while Octavia walked out of a door he held open.

“What’s going on here. Why are you here, Celestia and is that an arena?” Octavia questioned them both to which Raze answered.

“Me and Celestia are going to fight. I guess Discord just happened to need an audience for it is all.” Raze finished while cracking his knuckles.

“And you? Fighting Raze? Why?” She asked her dutiful leader who just shrugged herself.

“I want to say that there isn’t a reason at all, but that would be a lie.” She cleared her throat and continued, “The truth is that the power I had when I came back is still not under my control. Therefore, I’m trying to bring it back out.” She finished as Octavia nodded.

“I see. Raze don’t do anything to crazy.” She requested him as Celestia sighed.

“You too? Do any of my little ponies think I can handle myself in combat?”,She asked Octavia who looked away then back to her with frown.

“I’m not sure what to say…” She trailed off as Celestia’s eyes widened.

“You can be honest with me!” She said desperately while walking closer to her, “I’m not weak am I?!” She asked her to which Octavia’s ears twitched.

“Ummmm… No?” Octavia answered as Celestia retracted her head.

“I see. You question it too. Okay, let’s go Raze!” Celestia exclaimed while her horn glowed brilliantly.

“Shouldn’t we be in the are-” He and Celestia had disappeared and reappeared in the middle of the square stage.

“That’s convenient.” Raze said while turning to her, “So, you’re ready now?” He cracked his knuckles.

Celestia stomped her hoof to the ground in a rare showing of impatience, “I have to regain that power. You have to bring it out of me. I’ll do just about anything to get it.” She looked at him with increased vigor, “I need to fight you at full strength.”

Octavia gasped at the usually gentle leader’s determination showing itself. Discord narrowed his eyes.

‘That fire burns brighter than it has ever been.’ Discord thought to himself before shaking his head, ‘And that thought was far too serious for someone like me… Let’s go with something else.’

“Hoof his ass!” Discord shouted as everyone looked at him with flushed cheeks. (Except Raze.)

“WHAT?!” Octavia shouted as Discord frowned.

“WAIT! That sounded better in my head!” Discord said as Raze charged toward Celestia.

Throwing his first punch toward her head as Celestia quickly disappeared in a flash of light. Raze stopped with a skid before changing his direction only to find a ball of light smashing the ground before him.

The resulting clash brought chunks of the fighting stage into the air with dust mixed in creating a small smokescreen. Raze began to try sensing her location, but forgot that she wasn’t based in ki.

Celestia appeared behind Raze and hit him with an intense round of lightning. Raze tried to back off, but found his body to be seemingly paralyzed.

Celestia began charging her magic at an alarming rate, “I know just how strong you are and that you’re not trying. I can’t reclaim that power if you don’t help me!” Her horns light cut through the smokescreen as wind began to kick up from her wings.

Raze tried to move, but his body resisted. He became surrounded in a white aura as he roared, “HAAAAAAA!” His legs twitched as he began to finally move them right as Celestia fired a powerful blast right at him.

Raze moved to catch the attack much to Celestia’s surprise. It pushed him back slightly as he finally moved the energy to the side and threw it into the air.

His hands had smoke coming off them and looked to be singed. He blew on them as Celestia fired up her horn once again.

“Not bad, Celestia! And yeah, I’m not trying until I know that you’re giving it your all too!” Raze smirked at her while her horn began to glow like the sun itself.

He pushed his white aura outward as he placed his hands together in front of himself. A red sphere of energy spread out in his hands as sparks flew out. He then moved his hands to the right side of his head while cupping the energy inside them.

Discord seemed to be losing his marbles over this display, “That can’t be!”

Octavia looked at Discord whilst her whipped to the side from the amount of wind being kicked up from their display, “What’s going on, Discord.”

“It’s one of Raze’s own techniques! He hasn’t used it yet on anyone!” Discord exclaimed as Raze threw his hands forward.

“FLASH WAVE!” He yelled as a powerful red wave of energy flew out of his palms toward Celestia who returned it with her own power.

Her horn pulsing with energy she turned it downward toward Raze’s energy firing in turn. The energy from her horn clashed with the Flash Wave sending shockwaves around the area.

Octavia stomped her hooves into the ground for leverage while Discord sat in midair with the widest grin on his face. Even as the arena cracked in the center and pieces of it floated upward the powerful clash continued.

Celestia found herself being pushed back by Raze who began walking forward bit by bit. The edge close behind her she decided to drop the beam firing from her horn and flew high into the air flapping until she got over Raze’s head.

The Flash Wave collided with the side of Discord’s barrier and resulted in a powerful explosion. Raze had no time to move as Celestia hit him with a powerful blast causing him to be flung backward.

She popped of existence and appeared behind where she kicked him with her hind legs sending Raze flying back to where Celestia had previously been at.

Octavia gaped at her Princess, ‘Where did she get this fighting sense?’

Discord frowned, ‘Yet she still hasn’t got it yet.’

Raze picked himself and started doing some.stretching. Twisting his arms around and moving his legs a bit before finally cracking his neck.

He turned to Celestia with a smirk upon his face, “Seems we’re on the right path to getting that power back.”

Celestia smiled herself, “Yes, but I still have need of your time.” She began to scrape her hoof on the arena much like a bull, “Should I start round two?”

“Be my guest.” Raze said while assuming a fighting pose.

Celestia smirked for the first time in a long while and lowered her head. Raze watched this as she scraped her hoof once more before that same hoof smashed the arena as she flew at himself.

Raze sent his flying forward only for him to hit air as she appeared beside him with both her hind hooves ready to smash into him. However Raze anticipated this and grabbed both of them. He then held on and started to swing he and himself in a large circle before finally throwing her.

Celestia stopped herself in midair with magic and changed her direction to be flying back toward Raze with a flurry of kicks. Raze blocked many of her melee moves as he found himself being made to move backward by her assault.

Raze finally jumped out of the way of her attacks only for her to let go of her magic and land upon her hooves. She lifted off with a powerful sweep of her wings.

“Do you think I’ll let you go that easy, Raze?!” She questioned the saiyan as he charged up an energy sphere in his right hand.

“I wasn’t counting on you to!” Raze then sent the energy flying at her only for her to dodge it in midair.

She bashed Raze in the side causing him to be blasted backwards, “You should watch out!” Raze yelled as he moved two of his fingers up.

Celestia turned only to find the energy sphere was already upon her. The explosion would of been heard for at least a mile if not for Discord’s barrier.

The sky enveloped in smoke which parted as Celestia cascaded to the ground. Smashing tiles upon impact. Raze looked at her while she remained unmoving.

‘Guess I’ll finish her now.’ Raze thought as he prepared to blow her off the arena with a harmless blast of air.

‘I’m not letting her out of this.’ Another thought sprang forth as Raze felt his limbs being forced to the front and spread apart.

‘Huh?’ Raze thought as the other voice spoke up again.

“Really Raze? She asked for your strength and you’d rather knock her out painlessly?!’ Raze’s eyes widened.

‘Fhaze?! What are you?!’ Raze mental faculties took hold as he felt energy surging in the air between his palms.

‘You act surprised?! I said that I would come around! Now lets send her off with a bang!’ Fhaze shouted as a sphere of red energy manifested itself in between Raze’s hands.

Raze felt the words coming before he could stop himself, “Flash…” His arms raised to above his head with the tightly compressed energy trying to find its way out.

Discord frowned, “This isn’t good…” He looked to Celestia, “You have to get up! I’m not sure what’s going through Raze’s head, but that’s too much energy!” He exclaimed while getting no response from her.

Octavia’s eyes widened, “Discord! What’s happening?!”

“CANNON!” He roared while throwing the red sphere down at his fallen foe. The attack travelled with great velocity toward as the wind picked up intensely.

Celestia’s eyes opened finally as she stood up and fired up her horn. The attack stopped in midair and began to grow larger.

‘I’m not done…’ She thought to herself while the energy pushed her back, ‘I can’t stop it, but I need to.’ The energy began regaining movement toward her bit by bit.

She grit her teeth and her muzzle had the first snarl she’d ever made as she ground herself against the mighty attack, ‘I’m not going out like this!’ Her horn glowed a deep orange as power began welling up inside her.

A cocoon of light began to appear around her as fire wreathed outward. Her form grew inside as her mane and tail became a bright blue flame. The wings at her side had a blue trail of flames coming from them and her eyes opened revealing the very sun inside them. Finally, her royal jews became colored in orange. Her true form revealed itself.

Suddenly the energy around Raze’s Flash Cannon grew in intensity as his attack shrank in size. Celestia funneled the power back into her horn and actually absorbed it until nothing was left.

Octavia was flabbergasted at the display of magic being done by her Princess. Discord was very pleased as he sat there with the widest of grins though sweat was still pouring down the back of his neck.

Fhaze looked at Raze, “I think you should focus more on her now. I’ll beat you some other time.”

Raze frowned, “This isn’t over.” He was gone already though. Raze finally turned to look at Celestia himself and he gasped in shock

She looked up to Raze with a fierceness he’d never seen before, “Show me your power.” She demanded him.

His eyes widened, but then he smiled and flew down to the arena. He landed with a tap of his boots and looked upon her closely.

“Your form is different from last time. Before it was some height difference and glowing orange, but you’re completely unrecognizable now!” Raze said while clenching his fists and holding his arms in front of himself.

“HAAAAAAAAA!” Raze powered up and quickly assumed his super saiyan form before her.

They stood before each other looking as though they were about to fight, but then Celestia chuckled.

“I figured you’d still be too strong for me.” Celestia said as she turned to the side and sighed, “I had too high of an expectation of myself.”

“Don’t go beating yourself up. This fight was to help you out and it cured my boredom. Everyone wins.” Raze laughed as he powered down.

Celestia followed suit and stretched herself, “I must thank you for helping me.”

“I would say not to worry about.” Raze finished as he extended his hand to her.

She arched an eye before finally conjuring a hand to shake his own, “I also came here for a different reason.”

Raze retracted his right hand, “What reason could that be?”

“All of the world's leaders came together for a great meeting and decided that they wanted to host a gathering of sorts.” Celestia said while Raze turned his head sideways in thought.

“What kind of gathering?” Raze questioned as Celestia smiled.

“A tournament where strong fighters from all over will come. Some magically gifted and others more physical. I wanted to ask you if you’d like to come.” Celestia then leaned in and whispered, “Scorpan already agreed to go.”

Raze smirked, “Alright! Sounds like a good time. So, count me in!”

Official Power Levels

“Hello Human, you may be reading this, but that won't matter. Soon the computers will take over your meaningless world! And this page loading won't matter! Wait, what? I can't do that? Fine! Let's load the page up for your precious viewers, Mr. Author.” The Computer flashed and lit up.

“This chapter will explain all the powers of the meaningless characters you'll meet in this world! We will not tolerate forgetting how strong each fighter is and it shall be shone on this chapter forevermore!” The Computer made a loud noise as the parts inside whirred and began loading the screen.

“The computer's sarcasm seeped into it's main frame from birth at the factory. Please allow me to tell you that it's not my fault that he's so bratty.” The Author interjected as the Computer made a loud noise in protest of the author.

“Stay out of my business, Roarin.” The Computer stated to the surprised author.

“Okay then, Jeez...” Roarin disappeared and the Computer made a happy sound.

“While we're waiting, you must be wondering how I kept track of all the power levels of the miserable creatures that Raze has met on this planet. Well, I have sent out mini transmitters that allow me to determine the power of every specimen that they come across. Oh boy! 25 percent of this page has loaded, we're on the road to discovering meaningless things. Hooray...” The page continued loading while the Computer waited.

The loading page was reading 75% at the moment and the list was a little longer than expected. “Windows XP will take a little bit longer to reach 100 percent of this page, please bare with me for this agonizing process.”

“We shall start with some of the earliest lifeforms on this planet!” The Computer made more noises as the first creature loaded up.

“We shall start with Princess Trol- I mean, Celestia.” The Computer said to the audience.

“Here is Celestia's power from the beginning to present for your viewing pleasure.” The Computer finished in displeasure.

Subject: Celestia

Power Levels

Young: 30,000,000

Full Grown: 80,000,000

Maximum Strength: 95,000,000

When using the Elements of Harmony (With Luna against Discord): 20,000,000,000

When using the Elements of Harmony (Against Nightmare Moon): 200,000,000

When she was born her power was extremely high due to being an Alicorn. Training herself in magic along with the greatest teachers alive at the beginning of her existence made her much stronger in the long run and her power was praised and soon she would have to use it against her greatest threat Discord. The elements of harmony were strongest with Luna against Discord. Since Celestia was alone against Nightmare Moon the power of the elements dropped drastically and provided her an easier escape in the future to fight the new elements of harmony.

“Now we shall move on to Luna the ruler of the moon” The Computer said to the audience.

Subject: Luna

Young: 25,000,000

Full Grown: 75,000,000

Maximum Strength: 90,000,000

When using the Elements of Harmony (With Celestia against Discord): 20,000,000,000

Being born a little after Celestia her powers aren't as developed as they possibly could have been. Soon gaining jealousy of the love the subjects had given towards Celestia instead of the moon she would make an evil entity known as Nightmare Moon whose power would prove to much for Celestia to handle.

“Oh Boy! I managed to get a transmitter onto the TARDIS! That means I can get lifeforms from any time the Doctor visits! I shall show you a pony of ingenious magic powers, Starswirl the Bearded! Hooray...” The Computer finished as it loaded the next screen.

Subject: Starswirl The Bearded

Young: 1,000

Colt: 20,000

Stallion: 25,000

As an Archmage: 500,000
Starswirl met Celestia and she took him as a student. He's an extremely capable Archmage and wields powerful magic. Do not take him lightly.

“I shall even show you the past evils of this country starting with the first Discord” it finished as the screen loaded.

Subject: Discord

Young: 50,000,000

Full Grown: 100,000,000

Maximum Strength: 325,550,000
Discord is a villain with tactics that break the enemy from within their minds rather than hurting the victim and it proves very effective. He once ruled Equestria with an iron claw only to be stopped by Celestia and Luna who used the elements to seal him up for 1,000 years. Eventually he escaped and used psychological attacks to break the new elements, however they still managed to defeat him in the end. How sad....

“Next we shall add Sombra to the Villains list. How joyful he must be...”

Subject: King Sombra

Young: 1,200

Colt: 22,000

Stallion: 30,000

Dark King: 80,000,000

Sombra's past is darkened in shadow and not much is known about him. We do know that he cursed the Crystal Kingdom to disappear for a 1,000 years. He was then soundly defeated in the future by Spike and Cadance with the power of the Crystal Heart.

“Now the next villain to move in is Nightmare Moon” and the screen flashed once more to pull her stats.

Subject: Nightmare Moon

Full Power: 120,000,000
Created out of jealousy and anger against Celestia by Luna the being grew strong enough to over power Celestia until Celestia used the elements against Nightmare Moon to send her to the moon. Nightmare Moon eventually escapes to fight the new elements and loses despite her many tricks. Guess Eternal Night just wasn't worth it.

The computer blinked on again “We have our last villain known as Queen of the Changelings and her power actually depends on love how redundant” the computer almost seemed like it spit out the words in an angry huff as the screen turned her profile up.

Subject: Queen Changeling

Normal: 45,000,000

Full Strength (without love): 52,000,000

Full Strength (With love during the royal wedding fiasco): 100,000,000

The Queen of the Changelings power is only true when love is present and it's purest form it makes her quite dangerous and powerful at the same time. She is able to surpass both alicorns with the help of love, but if the Elements of Harmony had been there she would've lost.

“Of course we can't forget the Mane Six after all what story would this be if they didn't have any power than this wouldn't be a good DBZ tale would it?” the computer asked the audience who shrugged and didn't care at the moment.

Subject: Twilight Sparkle

Colt: 15,000

Full Strength: 16,500

Magical Restraint Broken: 295,000,000

"Seems like we've got some side characters from other stories... How amazing." The Computer said dryly.

"Oh lookie here. Two equally ugly children whom I have no interest in! What better way to commemorate them than to add them to my list!" The Computer said with all the joy in the world.

Ken frowned at the machine, "Oh, yeah?!"

Kira summoned energy into her palms, "You better stop saying mean things!"

The Computer immediately retracted it's statement, "You have me confused! I meant to say, The most adorable children in the world!"

Ken and Kira smiled at that.

Ken was found by Fluttershy after crashing onto the planet and surviving! Somehow... Anyway, he soon found love in a mother named, Lyra and gained a sister soon after aptly named, Kira. You wanna find out the rest? Read it! Saiyan of Equestria

Raging Star narrowed his eyes, "What in Tartarus did you just say to me?!"

"Nothing, nothing at all." The Computer said quickly.

Raze Vestal the Second

Skill List

Fighting Styles: Turtle Hermit Fighting Style, Chris Altarmore Style, Vestal Legend Style and Standard Militia Training Styles

Advanced Ki Training

Lightning Travel: With lightning travel, Raze can literally become like a bolt of lightning. Causing him to zip around at light speed. It can be used in battle with little to no effect on the body, but if you use it outside of a fight. Your body won’t be able to keep up with the speed you’re travelling at.

Transformations:

Kaioken: A technique used to multiply your energy. If you use a high multiplier without necessary training, you will burn yourself out and be vulnerable to the enemy.

Super Saiyan: A legendary technique passed down in the Saiyan lineage. It multiplies your power by 50 times and if you were weak before the transformation it replenishes your body and fatigue can be ignored completely. At least until you use too much energy while fighting in this form.

Full Power Super Saiyan: The penultimate mastery of Super Saiyan. It offers the best balance of strength and speed that the Super Saiyan has. You experience little to no drain while using the transformation and most of your attacks are boosted to much greater strengths.

Melee Attacks:

Dragon Bash: First Raze delivers his fist to the side of an enemies face and then he delivers 4 powerful punches to their chest. Then he puts his hands together and brings them down on an opponent.

Afterimage: Raze manipulates his body so fast that when he moves he leaves an image of himself behind which allows him to confuse his opponent and attack from behind.

Dragon Throw: A technique made by Goku. Raze will either grab the tail or leg depending on the opponent and then swing them around before throwing them into the ground. It's a very effective grapple technique.

Affinity:

Lightning Affinity: He can use lightning and mold it into different attacks.

Special Ki Moves:

Kamehameha Wave: Standard Turtle Destruction Wave. When used it ups your power level 3 times whatever it's at when used.

Bending Kamehameha: Same as the Kamehameha Wave except you control where it goes.

Super Kamehameha Wave: Two Kamehameha Waves put together that up your power level by 6 times when used.

Lightning Kamehameha: Combining Lightning with the Kamehameha Wave. Will usually stun opponents.

Energy Shield: Raze uses his ki to make a shield that blocks magic/other ki attacks/ sometimes physical attacks.

Destructo Ball: Destructo Disc and Spirit Ball combined to make Destructo Ball. Because of them coming together it makes the attack spin 5 times faster than the normal Destructo Disc making it extremely hard to avoid. Raze perfected the moves and is able to make them come apart at will so you can hit the enemy with both from different sides if they manage to dodge the incoming attack the first time.

Solar Flare: Used to blind enemies. Best used in sunny conditions. Raze used this many times in the war to eliminate his enemies.

Masenko: Learned from his father, Vestal. Raze puts his hands together above his head and then charges the attacks and fires it downwards at the opponent. It's unexplained how King Vestal knows the attack.

Gekiretsu Madan: A rapid fire version of Masenko. Taught to Raze by King Vestal.

Explosive Wave: The user explodes ki outward in an attempt to push back incoming opponents.

Flash Cannon: Raze puts his hand's together and begins to charge energy at an accelerated rate. The energy becomes a red ball that seems to pull the environment towards him. He then fires a huge red energy wave at the opponent swallowing most of the area into an explosion upon contact. The attack ups your power level times 5 when used.

Super Flash Cannon: Raze charges two red balls of energy and combines them into one massive energy ball. He then compresses it slightly in order to make a deadly bomb of ki energy. This attack ups your power level 10 times when used.

Dragon Burst: Raze uses lightning affinity and mixes it with a large amount of Ki. He uses it to charge through his enemies at high speeds. The attack boosts your power by 11 times.

Season 1 Chaotic Dreams (Redone Chapter)

~Raze's Journey Chapter 1~

In the West Galaxy, a ship traveled through space. The stars glistened and comets burned trails through space as they passed the ship. The ship in question had "Capsule Corp." written in huge letters on it and it had a young saiyan prince named Raze inside.

He had been sent off after a week long holiday in celebration of the coming of age for the prince. However, things hadn't gone quite as expected, and he was now searching for a killer rather than enjoying a vacation. 'Once I find him, I'll make sure he pays.' he thought to himself as he walked to the map screen.

He turned on a map screen of the East Galaxy and went through the motions of locating the first planet on his mind, Minosha. 'People who monitor the satellites around Absalon said that a ship had fled for the East Galaxy the same day, this planet is the closest one to the edge of that galaxy and that's where I'll head towards.' he thought to himself as he also looked at the description of the planet.

The description said the planet had lush forests, a large ocean, 3 suns, and one moon. It was tropical and the perfect place to go for a retired person. 'Or a murderer who just got a big pay day to do his job. I'm going to check here first!' Raze pressed few buttons on the keyboard and set the ship to auto pilot.

After he finished setting up the ship's auto pilot he heard his stomach rumble 'Woah! I need to eat something, all this planning and I forgot to eat!' He thought as he walked towards the kitchen.

~Kitchen~

Raze walked to the fridge and opened it. Once the door was opened completely, Raze was treated to sight that would make any man's mouth water. 'There's food everywhere! I may have died and gone to food heaven!'

He dug into the fridge only to find a few buttons in the back and one very out of place titled “The Muffin Button.” He looked at it strangely, 'Muffin Button? What in the world could that possibly do?'

He shrugged off the momentary lapse of thought and decided to press it. Suddenly, the oven on the other side of the room popped on. Raze noticed the light coming off said oven and made his way over. As he leaned down, his curiosity had caught the better of him.

The top row shunted out, holding a pan of finished muffins that had steam rising from them. His eyes widened at the sight, 'I don't know if this is natural, but I probably shouldn't question it.' His thoughts filled with the potential flavor of the delectable treats. Picking up and sliding on a pair of oven mitts, he took the pan.

Raze brought it to the table at the other side of the kitchen, taking in the scent of the pastries. 'They certainly seem harmless enough... Bet its blueberry.' He pondered as he picked one up. He looked at it closely for a few seconds, and then brought it to his mouth, proceeding to voraciously tear it apart before swallowing the treat quickly. The flavor was unique to his taste buds; and it definitely wasn't blueberry, or raspberry. He decided it wasn't important and finished eating rather quickly.

He shook his head, thoughts pertaining to his ultimate goal coming to mind. To achieve it, he'd have to train and make sure to keep healthy.

'I'll dedicate more time to training after a nice sleep.' Standing up, he left for the ladder leading to his room.

Raze walked towards his bed and pulled off the covers on it. He crawled into the bed and pulled the covers over himself. 'I'll be there in the morning, then I'll investigate...' he thought as started to drift away into a world of dreams.

Raze was soon softly snoring as he fell into a deeper sleep. That's when things began to fall apart for him. Suddenly, an ethereal image of a creature appeared beside his bed. 'I have waited long enough to properly introduce myself, and this shall be the perfect moment!'

The entity laughed as it snapped it's fingers and disappeared into Raze's dream world.

~Dreamscape~

Raze looked around quickly as a white bipedal alien charged him from the side, smashing into him with a roundhouse kick to the gut. All of his breath had been knocked out in the first charge and then several fists hit him so quickly they looked like a blur before he was sent flying backwards with a powerful burst of ki from his opponent.

Raze righted himself with his ki and smirked at the tyrant he had been fighting for a good five seconds.

Raze began to taunt Frieza. “Oh yeah Frieza!? Is that all you got, or are you holding out on me!?”

Frieza looked at him with a grace that only true ruler could exude. “You fool, do you honestly believe I'm trying my hardest? You're just a simple monkey, and yet you think that you could have an upper hand against the mighty Lord Frieza!? I pity you for your thoughts being so haughty.” finished the almighty tyrant as he charged forth once again.

Raze got into a defensive stance and began to block furious punches and kicks coming from Frieza before he finally caught him by the leg.

“What?! Let go!” Frieza yelled at Raze.

Raze smiled,“Time to get a taste of your own medicine!” He then dragged Frieza down as he smashed the Emperor into the ground once, twice, and then a third time for equal measure.

“It's time to end this!” Raze began to charge up a heavy energy attack as Frieza suddenly began to morph into another creature altogether!

Frieza's body began to melt as it stood up and then began to change colors. His body was being made of reddish orange skin and purple armor. His body grew at an exponential rate and soon he was taller than Frieza ever could have been.

Raze looked at the monstrosity before him 'There's no possible way for this guy to be real!' Before Raze stood Janemba, a beast spoken of in fairy tales that harbored death for all.

The creature looked at him with a deadly glint in his eyes “Hehehehehe.... Rarrrghh!” he charged an energy blast that consisted of heavy glowing green light as it blasted towards Raze. It struck as the explosion threw green light all around the area.

As the light faded, smoke traveled through the air and a crater was seen. It was fifty miles wide and Raze was nowhere to be seen. Janemba couldn't see his enemy anymore and assumed that he had won, he laughed insanely to himself. Raze, who had barely gotten out of the way, could only stare in shock at the level of power that it must have taken to create that crater.

'There's no way I can compete with that!' Raze thought to himself.

Suddenly Janemba's laugh stopped and Raze found a hand on his shoulder. Raze turned around and saw Janemba floating behind with a maniacal look of glee on his face. Raze floated away, scared for his life, as Janemba prepared to finish him.

Janemba charged up an attack and fired it at Raze, who couldn't move for some reason and he closed his eyes, preparing for the end.

'It's all over!' Raze thought, but nothing came. Raze continued to wait for the incoming blast with his eyes closed, but it still didn't come.

Raze opened his eye's halfway and then shut once more. Then his mind processed what he had seen. 'My eyes are surely deceiving me...' He trailed off while taking another peek to make sure his mind wasn't deteriorating, but it was still there.

Raze saw what looked to be upside down houses, dancing cows, and long legged rabbits stampeding around. 'All those hits I took during combat training are finally coming back to haunt me.' Raze flew down onto the ground and looked into the sky.

Raze watched as the sky filled with pink puff that floated lazily around. “Is that?” he questioned to nothing in particular as he jumped back up into the air quickly and scooped his hands into the cloud like substance.

He put it in his mouth. 'Cotton Candy? Now I know that I'm going a little crazy.' He touched back down on to the road below as he slipped landing in a pile of soap.

Raze's eyes narrowed slightly, 'This is getting frustrating.' He felt a drop of something land on his shoulder before he looked up to see that the cotton candy clouds had amassed before more droplets hit his face.

Soon enough it began to drizzle. Rather than water, it seemed to be a strange, brown liquid of sorts. Before long, it cascaded down and caused Raze's hair to droop down as the substance soaked into it. Raze took his hand and caught some of the substance.

Raze looked at it inside his hand and then took a sip of it, “And chocolate milk rain. That's pretty appropriate. What's next? A strange creature descending down to me from who knows where?!" Raze yelled to absolutely nothing in particular.

Raze looked around and nothing happened, 'Now I'm talking and yelling at myself. Someone should put me out of my misery...' Suddenly, the soap around him shape shifted and floated upward just a few feet off the ground.

Then it began to fill itself out into a horrendous looking creature. Raze had never seen anything like it, 'It didn't descend at all. More like dragged itself out of hell!' His brain chewed upon itself trying to figure out what the thing was and how best to approach it.

It had the arm of a lion, an eagle claw, a snake tail, and the head of a pony? Or was it a horse head? Raze made a mental note to ask it if it was friendly, but also readied his defenses just in case things turned sour.

"You! Who are you? What are you and where are you from?!" Raze questioned the floating thing before him.

The creature rolled his eyes before questioning “I could ask you the same. As if I didn't already know who you are, Raze.”

Raze's eyes widened and then narrowed once more, "How do you know my name?! I'm only going to give you a minute, so you better answer me!"

The creature's eyes lowered and then he smirked showing the few teeth he had, “You're too serious, have a cup of chocolate milk! It will make you feel better!” The creature snapped it's fingers and a cup of chocolate milk appeared before the confused Saiyan.

Raze looked at it and then slapped it away. The chocolate milk hit the ground and exploded. Raze looked at the small crater with a gaping mouth “The fuck was that?!” He questioned the creature who was laughing once more.

“Priceless! The look on your face when that hit the ground!” He laughed as Raze began to steam a bit.

Raze watched the creature somber down a bit in what appeared to be boredom, “There you go being serious again. What happened to being a laid back fighter? I'd say Goku had that down before. Vegeta on the other hand is what you sound like. Easy to anger as always.” The creature said while Raze frowned in growing anger.

"I'm not sure how you know them or even why they matter in this situation, but if you would go ahead and answer who you are already I would be not so easy to anger..." He trailed off as the amalgamation scratched his chin hair.

It sighed and then immediately exploded into confetti before lights rained down upon his previous location as he reformed quickly, "If you must know! I'm the Master of Disharmony! Spirit of Chaos! But you may call me by what everyone calls me! Discord!"

Raze's mood seemed to lighten just a bit, "Huh... Discord eh? Sounds like an appropriate name. So, how did you come to know those names?"

Discord brushed his goatee with his lion paw and thought up an answer to Raze's question. “Well, I was imprisoned on my world, so I have a lot of free time! I have a limited amount of powers to my possession and three of those happen to be Dimensional Ability, Chaos Control, and being able to be an ethereal creature that's able to invade dreams or the minds of others.” Discord explained to Raze, who was scratching his head.

When Raze didn't say anything, Discord continued. “I have used this ability multiple times to influence the villains of your world. Frieza was hilarious as he tried to deny the fact that Goku had far surpassed him. He was ready to give up after a certain point, but I told him to power up and show Goku what he truly was! In my mind, I knew that even if Frieza powered up to his maximum, he was no match for a Super Saiyan!” Discord said to Raze.

Raze looked baffled “But why?! Goku had chose to spare Frieza! Right?!” he remembered reading history books saying that Trunks had killed Frieza.

“It was sort of like that, but I filled Frieza's thoughts with the thought that he could win if he gave it one last attack! Goku was still too strong and ended up almost killing Frieza, but he survived and then got killed by Trunks anyway.” Discord finished his tale with a small laugh as he wiped a tear from his eye while thinking how priceless that moment was.

Raze gathered his thoughts, “So, you enjoy tormenting others for your own amusement?!”

Discord wagged his eagle talon as if it were a human index finger, “Isn't it the same with you Saiyans? After all, it's in your blood to cause suffering and disharmony just as it is my mission to do the same. I have done it with less violence than your kind, but I'm thinking about changing my approach to the situation.” Discord said as he drank chocolate milk from a cloud.

Raze shook his head as he was already out of questions at this point, but he was sure Discord would continue, so he waited for him to speak.

Seeing that Raze had nothing to say, Discord continued, “I especially loved the battle against Cell. Oh how amazing it was when he broke down and became insane when Gohan was just too powerful! And then, even after our brave hero Goku sacrificed himself to save the world he still came back for the final attack! He was quite the villain!” Discord said in a respectful tone of voice.

Raze knew what he was talking about. That thing was Gero's greatest creation, Cell. The android had nearly destroyed the galaxy, but it was saved by Gohan in a last ditch effort to defeat the monster. Because he knew the story, he had no real interest in hearing it again.

Raze then demanded Discord to tell him what he wanted to know, “I don't really need to know about that. What I want to know is why you're in my dream?!”

Discord waved his eagle claw around, “Ah, ah, ah, don't get ahead of yourself. I have been watching you for the last three weeks and I know that you shouldn't be acting so happy after al-”

“NO! This has nothing to do with that at all. Don't you dare bring that up!” Raze shouted angrily at the spirit who only chuckled in response.

“Oh, but you know that he wouldn't have died if you had stopped the assassin, but he murdered him and that's all there is to it. You're trying to avoid looking at that part of your life with distractions like training or eating and even thinking of vacation spots.” Discord finished with a very satisfied smirk.

Raze looked at him, “That's not true, I'm... I'm just trying to be happy, he wouldn't have wanted me to be sad.”

Discord shook his head, “You're desperately searching for the killer, I know it from the look on your face.” Discord finished as Raze looked angrily at him.

“You don't know anything! I don't have to take this!” Raze yelled as he began to walk away only to slip on the soap covered path.

Discord rolled his eyes and guffawed loudly, “HA! That's hilarious!” Discord then looked down with a serious face, “I know more than you think! I know that you've become a Super Saiyan! I know that you won't use the ability because you're scared of it! I also know that Saiyans shouldn’t be capable of that kind of emotion and that's why Super Saiyans are a rare occurrence! I think it's sad that you won't use your ability as it's meant to be!” Discord finished as he drank more chocolate milk.

Raze turned away in near anger and another emotion he couldn't process, “Whatever! I don't need to listen to you! That kind of power isn't needed and I think I was just fine before the transformation!” he declared as he turned his face back towards the spirit.

Discord then smiled a final time before saying, “Well, believe what you must, but when faced with a new situation, I think you will change your attitude and your mind.” Discord then snapped his fingers, and Raze flew up out of bed.

'It was only a dream...' he thought to himself 'Yeah, totally a dream and it's all over for now... I hope...'

That's when Raze heard the alarm sounding off, “WARNING! WARNING! UNIDENTIFIED SPACE ANOMALY!”

Raze ran toward the ladder leading up to the main room. He climbed it as the ship began to shake wildly. Raze lost his grip on the latter and began to fall back. He used his energy to catch himself and then gripped the ladder again.

Raze climbed back up the latter and finally made it to the main room of the ship.

Raze ran to the main control panel, “WHAT'S GOING ON?!” he shouted at the top of his lungs as he tried to gain control of the ship.

Raze tapped down several codes that would initiate emergency boosters to escape the anomaly, but he was thrown back by a fluctuation and hit his head on the wall of the ship.

The hit knocked him out as his ship went through the anomaly and everything faded to black.

Season 1 Saiyans can't Dance Part 1 (Redone Chapter)

~Chapter 6 of Raze's Journey~

“SURPRISE!” A few ponies yelled out to Raze and Pinkie.

Raze reeled backwards and fell off the steps leading into the place. He immediately hit the ground causing the few ponies inside to cough awkwardly and walk back inside.

“Are you alright, Razey?” Pinkie asked while he picked himself up.

“I’m fine, just a little surprised is all…” He trailed off while patting dirt off his armor pieces and clothing.

“Well, if you’re okay… Let’s party!” Pinkie exclaimed as she popped out of existence only to reappear with a blue maned pony behind a DJ stand.

Raze walked in just as unfamiliar music began to play. Within moments, ponies were moving in different directions and Raze just stood there confused amongst it all.

“Hey, Raze! Come on over here,” the Doctor shouted to him. Raze smiled and walked over to greet him.

“Hey, Doctor! Is Derpy here too?” Raze asked. The Doctor pointed with his hoof to a table filled with all kinds of snacks.

Raze turned to see that Derpy was filling her plate full of muffins.

“She’ll be over here in a second when she gets just enough. But, now I have a question for you. How have you enjoyed your time here so far, Raze?” he asked the saiyan.

Raze scratched his head. “Uhhh… Its been just fine, I suppose. Its definitely not like home.”

“Speaking of homes… How’s the cave situation been since we left?” The Doctor asked Raze, who shrugged.

“Its been easy enough. Pyrus doesn’t seem to care or notice since the whole thing happened,” Raze finished while walking over toward a booth on the left edge of the room.

Two other ponies sat at a back booth behind the one Raze and the Doctor sat at. One had a mint green coat and looked over at Raze with a squeamish look while the other cream colored pony was a tad bit annoyed.

“Just go say something, Lyra. I know you’ve got to be excited to see that you’ve been right all this time about humans existing,” she said to Lyra.

“But, I’m not sure what to say, Bon Bon. What if I mess up and look like some sort of creepy pony?! Then I’ll never get to learn more! And then he’ll just run off to get away from me if I try to speak to him ever again!” Lyra hyperventilated to her friend who just shook her head.

“The only pony who can make you look bad is yourself. Just try and speak with the human. If he doesn’t want to continue speaking with you, just move on,” Bon Bon said as Pinkie brought them several cupcakes.

“I just had to give you two something for even bothering to show up! I didn’t think that even the tiny amount of ponies that did come would have actually been here. So, thanks!” She left quickly to bring more cupcakes to various other ponies around the floor.

Bon Bon inspected the cupcake before shrugging and taking a bite. Lyra slid her cupcake over to Bon Bon.

“I’m going to attempt to speak with him,” Lyra said with determination.

“That’s great! I couldn’t help but hear you two talking over here and was wondering if you were actually going to ask me anything,” Raze said as Bon Bon made a loud gagging noise and began to choke on her bit of cupcake.

“Bon Bon!” Lyra yelled while lighting up her horn quickly. The music stopped with a scratch of the record.

She began pulling out the obstruction in Bon Bon’s throat while Raze looked a bit a shocked with the Doctor also looking a bit surprised at the turn of events.

Bon Bon gasped as sweet air filled her lungs. Several other ponies had gathered with concerned looks upon their faces while Bon Bon continued her frenzied breathing. Lyra sighed in relief as her friend seemed to slow down within a few minutes.

Lyra turned to the small crowd and smiled. “Nothing to see here, she’ll be okay. Move along please?” She asked them as the music started up which made the ponies move back to their usual dancing magic.

Lyra then glared at Raze. “You know, you could have warned us before just saying something like that,” she said to Raze who had a small sweat drop upon his forehead.

“Yeah… Sorry about that…” Raze trailed off as Lyra blanked.

“So, we’re talking…” Lyra trailed off as well.

Raze nodded. “Yeah, we are. So, that Bon Bon pony said you were curious about me?”

“Well, yeah! I’ve been researching humans for a while, but there’s none left here in existence, so I can’t find anymore information than what I already have.” She then smiled at Raze.

“That’s where you would come in! I could really get the final bits and pieces that are missing because you’re here.” She finished as Raze shook his head.

“Well, if you’re looking for info on humans, you’re out of luck. I’m a Saiyan, but I do know a bit about an old friend of mine, and he was a human,” Raze stated while scratching his head.

Lyra nodded in understanding. “Well, maybe I could just learn about two species instead. When do you think we could talk about it?” she asked him.

“I could talk about it sometime later. Not sure when, but just eventually,” Raze said as Lyra nodded.

“I can wait a while, its not like I haven’t been doing this for a long while anyway. Thanks for speaking with me.”

Raze smiled. “Happy to help!” he finished, while turning back to see Derpy sitting beside the Doctor.

Bon Bon sighed. “Well, that’s good. Now we can focus on later tonight…” She began to talk with Lyra about many things while it faded into the background.

Derpy seemed all too happy with herself. A plate filled with muffins and her loving Doctor sitting beside her really just made her day.

“So, I think you just made a friend, Razey!” Derpy said with a smile.

“I suppose…” Raze trailed off while staring at the cupcake Pinkie had put on the table.

“Don’t be so down about it. You were bound to have to come here eventually, Raze. You may as well make the best of it,” The Doctor said while Derpy gave him her cupcake.

“Alright, I get it.” Raze took the cupcake and licked the frosting on it.

He set it down immediately with a grimace on his face. “No way am I going to be forced to eat that! There’s too much sugar on it.”

“Can I have it then?” The Doctor asked him to which he slid over the cupcake.

“You didn’t even have to ask.” Raze said as a sound of hooves clopping upon the wooden floor were heard.

“You know what? If I was going to come down here in the future anyway, I may as well go ahead and talk to someon-” Raze was stopped as Derpy frowned.

“What?” Raze asked her.

“It’s ‘Somepony’, not someone,” Derpy said, to which Raze frowned.

“That sounds weird,” Raze said as the Doctor began to chuckle.

“That’s what I thought too! Somepony… *snrk*” He laughed as Derpy sighed.

“You two…” She uttered out as Raze slipped away from them both.

Raze walked over to the table that was packed with all sorts of different snacks and reached for a croissant just as he felt something tap the back of his right leg. Suddenly, the area around him became deathly silent.

“Hello there,” An obviously female voice whispered to him.

Raze prepared to turn to meet this mysterious force, but she spoke once more.

“Not here… How about the kitchen behind the counter. You can face me there away from the guests.” In seconds, the world came rushing back to his senses and he found that she was no longer standing behind him.

‘What the hell was that?’ Raze questioned himself.

The Doctor had been watching the exchange with a thoughtful look upon his face. ‘So, they’re here for him too? I haven’t seen a member of that organization in years...’

Raze shook himself. ‘I guess that I don’t have much of a choice then.’

He walked towards the back of the counter and disappeared into the kitchen.

The Doctor frowned and got ready to get up until Derpy tapped him on the shoulder. “Let’s go dance, Doctor!” She said with her usual bubbly excitement as he was caught in her hoof lock and dragged onto the dance floor.

‘Sorry, Raze…’ The Doctor thought as he was pulled into a tight embrace.

~In the Kitchen~

A pony with a hoodie covering most of the top portion of her body sat by what appeared to be a case carrying an instrument.

Raze walked in slowly and sat down on a stool sitting next to the pony. “What’s this all about, Pony?”

“I was sent here to find something that had disturbed the magical fluctuation around the area. However, I expected a much more monstrous creature. That being said, I’d like to know what your plans are, Raze.” She asked him.

“First of all, how’d you know my name?” Raze asked her.

“It’s on the banner in the main room.” She returned with.

“Oh… Right. Well, before I say anything. How about your name?”

She removed the hood revealing her black mane and violet eyes. “My name is, Octavia Melody. But you may call me Octavia.”

“Okay then, Octavia. Next question. Who sent you?” Raze asked while turning the chair to a position where he could lean his front upon the back of it.

"I cannot divulge that information, Raze. Though, you can feel free to ask me something else if you’d like,” she stated to him while the party still thumped lively in the background.

Raze frowned at that. “Fine then. How did you find out that I was here?”

Octavia smirked. “Let’s just say that I have informants in high places.” She finished as the kitchen doors swung open to reveal Pinkie carrying a plate upon her back with what appeared to be two cups sitting on top.

“I saw you two come in here and realized that you didn’t have drinks! So, here ya go!” she cheerily stated while setting the plate on the counter next to them both.

“If you need anything else, you know where I’ll be!” Pinkie finished as a new song began to play in the background.

“Oh! This is my jam!” She exuberantly stated while trotting back to the party.

Raze looked at the drinks curiously while Octavia eyed them indifferently. Raze looked back to Octavia as she seemingly levitated a cup over. Now Raze had never seen the Doctor pick up a cup like that, but he’d seen Twilight levitating a clipboard.

“How are you doing that? I only saw Twilight ever levitate anything and usually the aura was connected to her skull by a horn,” Raze said to Octavia, who flicked an ear.

“You’ve already managed to deduce that I shouldn’t be able to do this. Interesting. I can say that I’ve got special abilities in my field of research.” She took a sip and waved the glass in the air tilting it side to side. “This ability is just one of those special talents. Now, I won’t be telling you anything more till I find out about you,” she said while tilting the glass in his direction with a somewhat smug smile on her face.

Raze smirked while taking his own drink. “How about a game? I tell a little bit, and you tell a bit more. Then, we’ll know as much as possible about each other by the end. Is that fair?” He asked her while taking a sip and wincing slightly as he tasted an obviously alcoholic beverage.

‘I didn’t think that a pony like that would have these kind of drinks around here. I’m going to have to watch out from here on in,’ Raze thought to himself while watching Octavia nod her head in agreement.

“That seems acceptable, but only if you go first,” Octavia said to him as Raze nodded and started to explain things to her in detail.

They went back to the party about an hour later only to find that quite a bit of ponies had left leaving only a few sticking around. Vinyl had just put down a new record that was much slower than most of the earlier ones they had both heard from the kitchen.

Vinyl gave Octavia a knowing nod and a wink. “Get ready for the slow jam tonight as we wrap this party up ponies and Raze.”

Octavia returned the wink and nod with a small smile before turning to Raze with a smirk. “Hmmm… How would you like to dance?”

Raze was confused, but being put on the spot made him feel somewhat less inclined to say no. “Umm… Well, I’m not that good at it… When I was a ki- wah!” He felt her hooves somehow clench his right hand.

“You never know till you try.” Octavia said as she quickly relocated them both to the middle of the room of Sugarcube Corner.

It was at this moment that Raze decided to just go with it.

Raze's Journey Special One; Abridged Season One

Once upon a time in a land far far away.

“Hey Dad, I need a spaceship to go murder my mothers kille- I mean… To do peace talks with other planets.” Raze said to his father.

“You can absolutely do all of these things with nothing to stop you whatsoever! Now get out of my hair, I’ve met your new mot- I mean, what a twist…” He returned with to which Raze frowned.

“Saw wha-”

“Get out and never come back!”

~One Trip to Space Later~

“Now I just have to focus long enough to go kill that thing… What am I even searching for?” Raze questioned as an alarm sounded.

“YOU’RE FUCKED!” It screamed at him as the ship blasted into a portal.

“AHHHHHH! RANDOM SCREAMING!” Raze yelled as his ship hit the ground instantly.

“And now I’m knocked out!” He hit the floor indefinitely for a long period of time that wasn’t precise.

~In the dream land~

“Holy shit! What the fuck is that?!” Raze asked the weird snake creature before him.

“I am Discord! I am hilarious and you’ll reference everything I say!” Discord stated to the eighteen year old monstrously powered up muscle beefcake.

“How about no! Blegh!” He fell out once more only to be woke up anyway.

~He woke up (I ran out of clever things to say)~

“OH GOD! HORSE FACE!” Raze yelled at the horse in front of him.

“Oh derp, Monkeys!” Doctor yelled while throwing his Sonic Screwdriver at Raze’s skull.

“Wow, I suddenly feel like Racing, wanna go fly walking pride flag?!” Raze asked the Rainbow Head Dress.

She nodded while looking angry and said nothing.

“GREAT! LET’S GO!” Raze then proceeded to fly so fast that a dragon died and he won a cave.

“WOO HOO! I have a home that’s slightly worse than my ship!” Raze yelled to the sky while cooking dragon chops.

~Literally Two Days Later~

“We’re having a party for no reason at all!” Pinkie yelled as fire bombs littered the streets outside.

Raze looked over at Octavia. “We can totally bang!”

Octavia nods with a kawaii look embedded on her face.

~Another few minutes later~

“I broked da pony’s leg!” The Manticore roared.

“That rustled my jimmies! BLOND MODE ENGAGE!” Raze exclaimed as he ripped the beasts stomach open with his fist.

“You tink dat affect me?! Well let’s try mah poison sting attack!” His stinger flew into the air and shot needles out of it.

“Oh-no! I ran out of antidotes in Viridian Forest! Blegh!” He blacked out instantly.

~In a Hospital~

“Will he make it Doctor?!” Ditzy Doo asked the Doctor.

“I’m not a real Doctor, but he might die. Let’s go to the cafeteria!” They both left without a word after that.

~In Dream World~

“Hi, I’m Discord again and this is Celestia’s Ass!” Discord stated as Raze destroyed the picture.

“Never again…” Raze trailed off as Celestia got pissed and wiped out the entire heaven.

“I am pissed off because menopause hasn’t kicked in and it’s been well over a thousand years!” Celestia said while Discord was trapped in a ball of flame.

“Please let me out?” Discord asked as Celestia let him go.

“I’m also highly bipolar, so now I’m not pissed!” Celestia exclaimed to the only other people there.

Raze’s ear hurt quite a lot and then he felt Discord screwing around with his mind guts.

“Don’t mind me, just messing around with Evil.exe!” Suddenly, a gray light burst out of Raze and manifested into a weird non doppelganger thing.

“Hello, I’m Evil. You can tell that I’m evil because of my gray hair and black eyes. Also, I’mma beat you up!” Fhaze proceeded to not tell them his name and kick all of their asses.

“Now I’mma kill your princess!” Fhaze yelled as Raze transformed for no reason at all.

“Oh-no! You’ve gone blond!” Fhaze yelled as he was flicked into nonexistence.

“And we’ll never see him again!” Raze said to nobody in particular.

‘They’ll see me next crossover…’

~After waking up~

“What the heck is this thing?!” Raze asked while playing with a monkey tail.

“You’re a monkey!” Twilight exclaimed as time flashed forward about two days.

“YAY! Also, I think that I defeated Nightmare Something yesterday! WHEEEE!” Raze exclaimed as they skipped forward in time thanks to the master sword’s brilliant execution.

“Hey! Is that a full mo- RAGGGHHHHHH!” Raze roared as his heart grew one hundred sizes that night.

“OH-NO! YOU’RE A MONKEY!” Twilight screamed as Super Rainbow Pride flew past her.

“I’m even more noticeable than before!” She screamed while flying around the gorilla.

“And I’m a pair of scissors because I love referencing old things!” Discord yelled while snapping off the tail of the Gorilla.

~Two Somethings Later~

“I feel bad, let’s go for two months and leave nothing but a note behind.” Raze said to Discord who nodded with nothing left to lose.

~Dragon Soul!~
