Gohan in Equestia
Settling in
Previous ChapterNext ChapterDiscord had left with the Princesses. That was the day I learned of the elements as well. I remember not sleeping that night wanting to protect Fluttershy. I couldn't let myself sleep if Discord could try something. I remember passing out once I saw her walk in the light of the morning sun. I slept for a few hours until a loud knocking came from my front door. I jumped into the air and landed face first on the floor.
"Gohan come on get up!"
I heard Rainbow's voice and sighed knowing she wanted to fly with me. I got off the floor and walked into the main room. I walked over to the door and opened the door. But when I saw Rainbow I almost did a double take. She was wearing a white tank top with two black wristbands. She had on blue genes with two holes torn over her thighs with a belt.
"Come on big guy."
She grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the doorway. "Ok, just give me a second to wake up I had a long night." She stopped as I stretched my arms and legs. She looked at me and then looked at Fluttershy's house.
"You were watching over her, weren't you."
I didn't say anything and just started to float into the air. "Don't worry about it let's just move." She didn't fight me on this and just flew after me.
"So, you're a prince right?"
I looked back at her as we flew. "It's like I said I don't care if I am. I just wanted to live my life peacefully. Maybe have a family one of these days." She flew right up to me.
"You don't want much do you?"
I smiled and kicked it up a notch. "No, I don't but want to see who's faster?" She smiled and pointed at a rocky range. I nodded as I followed her to it. We landed near a canyon opening. She walked in front of me and pointed inside the canyon.
"We'll race through this canyon. Whoever's at the end first is the fastest." I nodded as we got ready.
"Ready, set, GO!"
We both took off and raced around the canyon. We raced throughout the whole canyon. I felt Discord's energy over top of us. We heard a rumbling coming from the canyon top. Rocks started to into the canyon. "RAINBOW!" I yelled when I saw her left wing get hit by a rock. I turned and rushed for her as she fell. I saw a large rock about to fall on her. In the blink of an eye, I used instant transmission to grab her. I appeared beside her and used instant transmission and appeared in front of Twilight's castle. I looked back towards the rock range. 'Discord what's your game?'
"Gohan?"
I looked at Rainbow in my arms. I saw a blush on her face. I blushed as well and let her down. We looked away from each other as she closed her wings.
"OW!"
I looked at her left wing and saw it was bent the wrong way. "Hospital?" I asked knowing the answer. She looked at me and nodded.
"Hospital."
"Want me to fly you there?" She looked around seeing if anyone was around us and looked at me. She blushed as she nodded and I picked her up then jumped into the air. I flew as Rainbow would look at me with a blush on her face. I just let it go and landed us next to the hospital.
"I'm good now you can go do your own thing now."
I nodded and flew off towards the rock range. I looked around for anything strange along the canyon. I couldn't find anything strange. So I left and flew back home. For the rest of the day, I trained in the forest behind Fluttershy's house. Night came and I when home to sleep. The next morning I had woken up and when for a morning jog.
"Hello, Gohan darling."
I stopped about halfway to town and saw Rarity. She had a black skirt on with a light blue blouse. I saw that unlike the last few times I had seen her she had her hair in a ponytail this time. Behind her, I saw a wagon and a shovel in her magic. I raised an eyebrow and looked at her. "Where are you off too?" She smiled sweetly and looked at the dirt path beside me.
"Spike is waiting for me at the gem fields. The darling helps me dig them up. The dear is always ready to help if I need it. But I wish we could get under that huge rock."
She had a sad look on her face. I didn't know why she was so sad. But I wanted to help her. "I could help if you like?" She looked at me with a strange look.
"How darling?"
I looked at the path we were on. I saw a large rock near some trees. "Like this but you may want to take a step back." She did as I asked and I raised my hand and pointed it at the rock. I fired a blast at the rock and is plow up. Smaller rocks and dust flew away from the rock body. I lowered my arm and looked at her. She looked at me amazed.
"How did you do that?"
I smiled and created a ball of KI. "I can use KI to fly and fire attacks. With this, I can just blow the rock up for you. Besides, you and spike shouldn't to work around it." She smiled and walked over and kissed my cheek.
"Thank you, darling."
I smiled and followed her to the gem field. We got onto the field after a few minutes of walking. I saw Spike trying to lift the rock but couldn't. I walked over to the rock and Spike looked at me.
"Gohan what are you doing here?"
I looked at the surface of the rock. I noticed a few cracks and saw a small gem. "Wait a second." I grabbed both sides of the rock and pulled it out of the ground. The dirt around the hole fell to it. I lifted the rock over my head. I saw Spike looking at me in shock as I sat the rock back down on the ground. I looked at the cracks again. Then I punched right through the stone. It was hollow like I thought it was.
"Gohan darling are you ok?!"
Rarity rushed over to my side. She looked at my fist as I pulled it out. My fist was just fine as we saw the gems inside the boulder. They were pure crimson rubies. I looked back to Rarity as she was looking at them. I turned to look at Spike. I turned as she hugged me. I stood there for a second but hugged her.
"Ahum!"
She let go of me and looked at Spike. I looked at him too. I saw a mad look on his face with a little bit of fang showing. Rarity blushed when she thanked me for the rubies. I just laughed it off and said to was my job as a gentleman to help a lady. She blushed again as I bow and spoke to her like she was a princess. The whole time Spike was looking at me as I talked to her. I felt murderous intent coming from him. We finished talking to Spikes joy. We all gathered them and made our way to town. As we walked Rarity was beside me. I didn't mind much as it was nice to have company.
"So Gohan how did you know that boulder had such beautiful rubies in it?"
I kept walking as she talked to me. "It's was what's called a geode. A rock with crystals in it."
"Darling do you know what that rack was?"
"A geodes rock created in the hollow areas of soil such as animal burrows or tree roots. I've also seen in a few books that they also form in volcanic rock." I saw Rarity looking that a ruby and Spike was eating one.
"Gohan I would like to repay this kindness. Do you need any new clothes?"
I looked at her and nodded. "No, all my clothes are weighted. I don't need you to overwork yourself for me. Besides hand's as delicate as your's shouldn't do such tough work." She looked at me and blushed as she walks just a little closer to me. For the as we walked near a dead tree I felt Discords power again.
"Look out!"
Spike yelled as the large dead tree started to fall. I looked at it and saw it was about to crush Rarity. 'He's not after me!' I dropped the rubies I had then grabbed Rarity's hand. I pulled her as I blasted the tree. Dust and rocks flew into the air in front of us. My attack had destroyed the tree and a hill. I pulled Rarity close to me with one arm and grabbed Spike with the other. I flew up above the income duct cloud. I looked down to the dust cloud. I saw Discord's tail in the cloud of dust and rocks. We landed outside of the dust cloud as it settled down to the ground. 'I believe fighting him is the only way to end this mess.' Spike and I picked the rubies up when we had them all left for her house. We all walked to what looked like a huge Carousel.
"Come inside Gohan darling I'll make us some tea."
I looked to Rarity as she spoke and I nodded. "You know that sounds nice but what about Spike?" At his name spike looked at me and I could still feel a murderous intent from him. I had noticed how he was looking at her a few days ago in the castle. I wasn't the kind of person to say what the heart wanted but. He had no chance with her. From what I can tell by his temper and his body he's about sixteen or fifteen. I looked back to Rarity to see her looking at him.
"Gohan is right Spike Please help you to a few of the bigger rubies."
He smiled as we followed her into the house. I looked around the home and apparent business. I saw Spike walk over to a couch and I walked over to a chair. We looked at each other and he straight at me. It was the same look I gave the androids when we fought. I watched as he stood up and walked over to the chair across from me and he looked at me. He was looking right me as he sat there. He was trying to intimidate me with his stare. As he did Rarity was out with a tray of snacks. She used her magic to pull a table over and sat the tray down on it. I stood up when she started to walk back to get another chair. "No here Rarity it is your home."
"What do you mean Gohan?"
I got out of the chair I was in and offered it to her.
"Oh my, you are a true gentleman as you put it Gohan."
I smiled and stood aside for her. She walked over and sat down in the chair. When had sat down I walked over and got the other chair. I sat with them in a small circle and took a cookie off the snack tray. For the rest of the Hour, I sat there with them. When Rarity excused herself to use the restroom I had a little talk with Spike. I looked at him as I drank some of my tea and spoke to him. "Spike I have no interest at this time to date. You have nothing but your age to worry with." He almost did a spit take and looked at me.
"How can you tell I like her?"
I put my cup down and picked another cook as I answered. "I see the way you look at her spike. Trunks looked the same way at a few girls when he thought I wasn't looking. But like I said your age is a problem. Your what Fifteen Sixteen years old right?" He sat his cup down to and looked at me.
"Fifteen and a half and how is it a problem?"
He spoke with an edge in his tone. I looked at him with the same my dad had when he was serious. He flinched back from my look. I spoke in a firm tone to let him know I wasn't playing. "Spike I'm going to take a guess and say Rarity is twenty twenty-one at best. Now think about this with me Spike. What if you were her age and a teenage was after you? What if a fifteen-year-old girl wanted to date you as a twenty or twenty-one-year-old. How would you handle it? Would you tell her to leave you alone? Would you just wait to see if she falls in love with someone else?"
"I'd hope she'd fall in love with someone else. I understand what you're saying Gohan but I..."
I slimed and stood up. "Follow me, Spike, I think I know a way to help you." He sat there for a second but stood up and followed me outside. He stood beside me as I pointed to the sky. "Spike tell me what you see up there."
"It's the sky Gohan."
I looked at him and nodded. "No Spike it's a whole world you haven't seen. People you haven't seen and places you haven't visited. Besides, I've heard that most people or in this case dragons already meet their soulmate. So for all you know you've already met yours, Spike." I saw him looking at the sky and smiled. He laughed a few times and looked at me with a smile.
"You know you have some wise words in that head of yours."
We shared a laugh and walked back into Rarity's house. After a few hours, I and spike left for the night. I flew back into the forest and to a large river. I got a few of the large fish from it and took it back to my house. I found out I had a bigger freezer in another capsule. I cook about twenty pounds of the fish and eat a meal. I was getting ready for bed when a knocking came from my front door. I stock my head out of my bedroom door. I looked at the door with an eyebrow raised. I slipped on some sweatpants and a tank top and walked over to the door. I opened my door and saw Twilight and Applejack. I smiled and leaned on my doorframe as I looked at them.
"Hey, Gohan I was wondering if we could bother you for a few minutes."
"Sure Twilight, Applejack please come in and have a seat." I moved and let them into my house. They walked over to my dinner table as I closed the door before following them. I sat down at the head of the table and looked at them. "So girls, what do you need?" Applejack straightened her back and looked at me.
"The Princess has asked me to give ya a job at my family farm. I just wanted to know that if you say yes to be at our gate at six sharp partners."
I looked at her and thought about it. I would need a job sooner or later. ' I can't just keep taking from the forest I'll destroy the ecosystem.' "Ok Applejack that sounds nice and I'll be there six sharp." She smiled and stood back up then walked over to me. I was wondering what she was doing as she stood beside me. She leaned down and hugged me again. Her breasts were pressing into my shoulder. I started to blush as she held onto me.
"Applejack?"
Twilight's voice snapped Applejack out of her funk. She realized what she was doing and let me go. She was standing back up I noticed she was blushing too. I looked at Twilight as she was looking around my house. "Twilight? hello?" She looked at me and laughed with a little redness to her cheeks.
"Sorry just looking around."
I waved a hand and dismissed her worries. She smiled and pulled out some papers. I took them from her and started to read them. They seemed to citizenship papers and deed to the land my house was on. I looked through them and asked her for a pen.
"Wait, Gohan I forgot to give you this."
She slid me another piece of paper. I took it and saw it was just a map of the town. Near the bottom, I saw a few words.
'Rainbow want to see you tomorrow after you're done working. Meet her by the hill you destroyed.'
'I wonder what Rainbow wants?' "Ok, then I'll be sure to sign all these late. How would you ladies like me to escort you home?" They both turned my offer down and then left. I stayed up late reading and signing the papers. Once done I when to bed and sleep for the night. I woke up about five in the morning and got ready to start my new job. I eat a small breakfast and got dressed then was ready for the day. I looked at the clock on the wall to see the time. I saw it was five twenty and I got up and washed my plate and cup. With that done I walked out into the morning air.
"Good morning Gohan."
I looked over to my right and saw Fluttershy. She was lifting a heavy food bag with a lot of her animals following her. I walked over and took the bag.
"Gohan you don't have to do that."
I looked at her and smiled softly. I saw her worried face as I looked for the food bowls. Angel kicked me and pointed at the side of the hill. I looked down at him and nodded as he started to lead me. I followed him to a little chicken coop then I saw a few food bowls on the side of the coop. I lifted the bag onto my shoulder and walked over and got the bowls. I bored the same amount in each of them. With that done, Fluttershy walked over and thanked me with a kiss on the cheek. I blushed a little and looked away with a blush. 'Better hurry before Applejack comes looking for me.' "Have a good day Fluttershy I have to go."
"Ok have a good day Gohan."
Fluttershy pov-
I watched as Gohan put the food on the doorstep and flew off. I watched as he flew off and felt angel kick me and I looked down at him. He looked up at me with a happy smile. "No angel it's not like that."
"What's not like that Fluttershy Darling?"
I epped and turned around to saw Rarity and Rainbow. I saw that Rarity had a few bags and a few of her fingers had Band-Aids on them. I saw that Rainbow had a bag as well and her wing was free of the magic cast.
"Hey Flutters you ok?"
"Oh um, yes I'm fine why do you ask?"
"Well your face is all red and so are your ears."
I covered my ears and looked down to the ground.
"Fluttershy sweetie are you sure you're ok?"
I looked back to Rarity to see she looked at worried. I nodded as angel patted my legs a few times. We all looked down at him and saw he had a piece of paper in his mouth. I leaned down and took it from him. Rarity and Rainbow both walked over to me and we all at the picture. We saw it was a crudely drawn picture of a house and two ponies.
"Wait is the bigger one supposed to be Gohan?"
Rainbow and I looked closer and saw that one was bigger. It had the three spikes at the front of the head like Gohan's hair. Then we looked at the other figure in the picture.
"Are those supposed to wings?"
Rainbow pointed to a lot of lines behind the other figure. Rarity and I looked at the lines. They did look like wings if you looked close.
"What is that?"
Rainbow pointed to a pair of lines touching. I looked at the two figures to try to figure it out.
"Wait I think it their hand looked here."
Rarity pointed to the sides of the bodies. "But if that's it then who's the winged pony?" We all looked at angel and saw he was eating a cherry. I leaned down to him and started to talk to him. "Angle bunny who is the winged pony in this?" When he finished his cherry then pointed to me. I blushed and looked at him. Then he started to act out the way he protected me. Then pointed at the Gohan in the picture and gave him a paw up.
"What is he saying Flutters do you know who the pony is?"
I stood back up as angel hopped away. They saw my blush and Rainbow started to ask me questions.
"Who was it? is it a mare or stallion?"
I blushed and started to explain what angel had said and drawn. "Well, Angel thinks he'd be a good coltfriend for me. Then the things he was doing was when he protect me from Discord." I was blushing as I looked to the ground.
"You a good match for Gohan, please. Sorry to say Fluttershy but that's not going to happen. He's going to pick me over every other mare."
Rarity and I looked at her as she pulled out her karate robe.
"We all know that he practices martial arts. So it only makes sense that he'd pick a fellow martial arts fan."
I looked at her proud smile then I saw an unhappy Rarity. She was gripping her bags tightly and looked at Rainbow Dash.
"I'm sorry Rainbow Dash as I believe Gohan likes a more sophisticated mare. Yes, he may practice martial arts. However, I do not believe you and Gohan would make a good couple. He would make a perfect coltfriend for a lady. Who I may add spent the whole hight making him some comfortable and durable clothes by hand."
She pulled out a few pairs of Denim pants and jackets. I saw them about to get into a fight. I, however, wanted to add in my two bits. "Well, I think he'd be better off with me." They both looked at me with fire in their eyes.
"Why is that?"
"He's peaceful and doesn't like to fight. I think he likes the two of you I just don't see it. Beside Rarity you already have Spike and Rainbow you said you'd never a coltfriend back in flite school." The three of us looked at each other until Rainbow smiled.
"Fine then if that's how you two want to play it let's see who can get him first."
I blinked and looked at her. "What do you mean Rainbow Dash?"
"Yes, just what are you saying?"
She smiled and jumped into the air.
"First one to him get to ask him on a date!"
She flew off to look for him with a confident smile.
"How un-lady like of you Rainbow Dash!"
Rarity used her magic and teleported away. I just looked at them and was shocked that for once I said what I wanted to. With that, I when back to my house and looked through the dress Rarity had made for me in the past.
"Fluttershy we need to talk."
I froze when I heard discord's voice. I slowly turned to my bedroom door. I saw Discord there leaning against my doorframe.
Gohan pov-
I landed right outside of the what I hoped was the Apple family farm.
"HI, there who are you!?"
I looked over to a barn and saw a little girl with red hair and in overalls. I walked over to her as she smiled. I kneeled down to her and spoke. " I'm Gohan little one. I'm looking for a mare named Applejack does she live here?" She smiled and looked at the house.
"Ya, she's in the house with Pinkie and Twilight."
"Would you please go tell them I'm here?" She smiled and nodded.
"Sure just wait here for a second."
I smiled and stood back up. I looked around the farm to see rows of apple trees. I looked at the house as the little girl ran out. She ran up to me and still had her smile.
"My sis said they'll be out in a second. But she told me to take you to the barn come on."
She grabbed my hand and started to pull me to the barn. She looked back at me as she pulled me.
"Oh, my name is Applebloom by the way."
I smiled and looked at her. "Nice to meet you Applebloom." She pulled me into the barn. I sat down on a hay bail and she seat across from me. We looked at each other as we waited for Applejack.
"Are you my sister's coltfriend?"
I looked at her strangely at her last word. "What is a coltfriend Applebloom?" She looked at me and then smile.
"It's when a mare and a stallion go on dates. You know kissing, hugging and having fun with each other."
I smiled and rubbed the back of my head. "Um, I've never done anything like that. I spent my childhood and teenage years fighting and training. I can remember how I throw at a mountain and then destroyed it with a Ki blast."
"Well do you want a marefriend?"
I looked away from here and scratched under my chin. Maybe sometime in the future, I'll find one. I mean I do want to have a family someday."
"Well if not my sister then what about one of her friends?"
As I was about to answer the barn door slammed open. I jumped in front of Applebloom and put my fist up. I looked at the door to see Applejack, Twilight and on the ground. Pinkie was on top of them all of them. I walked over to them and looked down at them. "Did we learn our lesson about trying to eavesdrop?"
"Yes, Sir."
I smiled and helped them all back up.
"Thanks, Gohan."
I saw them all blushing as the looked at me. Then Applebloom walked over to us.
She looked at Applejack then to me.
"So am should me and the girls plan a wedding?"
I laughed as I saw Applejack them the others turn red with embarrassment. 'When was the last time I had a chance to embarrass someone?' I looked to Applebloom and smiled. "Not yet, besides I think I would marry Fluttershy. Out of all the girls, she and I get along the best. Besides she is quite the looker." Applebloom laughed and elbowed my side a few times.
"Good for you two besides, Celestia knows that mare needs a good roll in the hay. So I'll get the girls here and plan the wedding!"
My face heated up and I looked away from her. She laughed again and walked out of the barn. 'Well that backfired on me didn't it?' I looked at the other's and noticed they all knew we were playing them. Applejack looked annoyed and grabbed my ear.
"You're starting with the manure pile."
I smiled and looked at them all. "Worth it!" Two hours had gone by with me filling a wellbore and moving it all over the farm. Around lunchtime, Applejack brought me some sandwiches. She sat with me as I eat on a small hill.
"Is Fluttershy the one you'd pick to date?"
I finished a sandwich and looked at her. She had her hat covering her eyes. I looked back over the hill and thought about it. 'Out of them, all Fluttershy and I are the most alike. We both like it quiet and peaceful areas.'
"Gohan?"
I closed my eyes and sighed. "Well, I guess the main reason is that we both like it quiet and peaceful lives. Plus I wasn't lying earlier you know. So far out of all of you girls, I think me and her have the most likely." I opened my eyes back up to see her in my face. "AHH!" I stomped my foot on the ground and broke through a tree behind us.
"GOHAN!"
After that, we finished the work with Applejack and I not talking. The end of the day came around five. Applejack invited me to stay for dinner. I turned her down and flew to the hill where Rainbow Dash wanted to meet me. I flew over the land with only my thought's to keep me company. 'What did I get myself into today?' After a few minutes, I landed beside the now hollow hill. I seat down on the ground as I waited.
"Gohan help!"
I looked over to my right to see Spike running. He looked beat up with some blood coming from his mouth. I jumped up as he reached me. "What happened!?" He was breathing hard and looked up at me.
"Discord took Fluttershy and Twilight. I tried to stop him. But he shot me in the gut with a magic blast. I was down when he took them to his castle in the everfree."
I was mad now. I only wanted to beat Discord into the ground. "Spike" I spoke in a low tone with my power rising with my anger.
"Y-yes?"
I looked at him as my energy started to turn gold. "Where is his castle?"
