Home Away From Home

The sun rose from across the horizon shining it's rays on the town of Ponyville. Ponies soon began to exit there little homes to start their day and open up for business. The birds chirped greeting the new day and flying about in the sky. The sun’s rays glistened off the crystal castle, reflecting lights of purple and blue across the sky. Insides Twilight had awoken early this day and trotted down the hallway, making her way to the spare room where her special guests was staying. Upon reaching the door she gently knocked on the door three times and waited for a response, but with no response met Twilight gently and slowly opened the door."Johann? You awake in there?" Twilight whispered as she inched her head inside.

As Twilight peeked her head inside,she saw that he was still fast asleep on the bed. Slowly and quietly she slipped inside and made her way to the sleeping saiyan. The bed in which he slept in was a few sizes too small, like a grown stallion sleeping on a colts bed,one of his arms and legs were draped onto the floor. Twilight tried to suppress a snicker at the comedic site.
'Guess he must have been really tired from all the question last night.' She thought as she came along side the bed. As she made way Twilight felt something heavy at her feet and nearly tripped.
"Eeep!"she let out a squeal as she lost her balance and began to fall forward.Using her wings to float up she quickly regain her balance and turned to see what it was that tripped her over.Looking onto the ground the only thing she could saw was a blue fabric along with the wrist bands and boots that Johann had been wearing before. 'Weird it felt like I tripped on a rock.' Quicky she cover her mouth and looked back to make sure she hadn't woken up her guest. To her relief Johann was still sleeping with his head on the small pillow,she watch as his chest rose up and down with each breath.

'Phew that was close.The last thing I want is to wake him up before I could study what a sleeping saiyan looks like. I mean its it's not everyday you have a visitor from another universe everyday now’ She turned her attention back to the clothes on the flow, and lowered her head while her horn glowed enveloping the clothes on the floor in a light purple aura. 'I'll just move these someplace where no pony can trip over then and......' Twilight found herself trying extremely hard to lift the clothing off the floor, however she found herself unable to lift them even so much as an inch off the ground.Her horn glowed brighter as she arched her neck trying to lift the clothing off the floor,but to no avail. As her horn stopped glowing Twilight was left panting. 'How can clothes be this heavy.' As she stepped back her body fell onto the bed, and atop of the sleeping saiyan. ‘Oh no. I need to move before.....' Twilight slowly tried to get off bed and out of the room, before she could get up an arm warped around her waist pulling her closer to Johann chest.

'Oh no oh no!' Twilight slowly tried to pull away only to barley budge an inch within Johann grasp. 'Wait is he awake!?' Her eyes slowly looked up to see that Johann eyes where closed and his breathing hadn't changed. 'Well that's just great. Not only am I stuck,but he's a deep sleeper. Well at least this can't get any worse.'

Before she was able to move again the door to room slowly creaked opened." Hey Johann it's time for breakfast you coming.......?" Spike eyes widened at the sight he saw, there on the bed Twilight was laying atop Johann with his arm around her barrel with her presses against his chest. A grin slowly spread from across his from ear to ear as he slowly walked back to the door and turned around before closing the door. "I'll just give you two some privacy hehe." With a grin plastered on his face.Spike closed the door slowly.

"Wait Spike help me please!" Twilight whispered trying to get help from Spike,but before she could finish her sentence the door had closed leaving her still in the firm grasp of her guest.
Five minutes have past and Twilight still remains under the grasp of the saiyan guest, all attempts to free herself were fruitless. She tried to use her magic to slowly remove Johann's arm to free herself, but similar to her attempt to move the clothing on the floor from earlier it had no effect. She thought that if she used her magic to use a pillow feather on his nose that maybe he would go to scratch it and she be free from his grip. The plan had worked and he did scratch his nose, however it was with his other hand. 'Right he has two arms, just great.' She thought bitterly as all her idea's were no use.
Soon it had been ten minutes and Twilight's last idea was to simply wake him up, however she needed a way to do so and explain why she was in this predicament. 'I could say I came in to wake him up for breakfast and how I tripped over his clothes and fell on him.' As she began to piece together her alibi a thought occurred. 'Well that's technically true. And I can just leave out the whole wanting to study a sleeping saiyan hehe.' All of a sudden Johann began to tuck and turn making his arm lossen. Without thinking Twilight tried to break free of his grasp. Her body was now able to move enough that she could slip out. 'Yes finally I'm free!' As she tired to get up and move out of his grasp her legs started to wobble and felt all tingly. ' NO NO! My legs are asleep!' She could feel the unmistakable feeling of pins and needle that engulfed her legs.Her body wobbled some more before her balance was lost. Her body slowly slumps over until she fell on top of Johann chest with her cheek against his. Her face burned as her muzzle turned a bright red as she can feel how close they are. And as if fate wasn't cruel enough Johann's arm swung around and gently wrapped around her waist again pulling her chest to his and her legs on either side of his body. 'DAMN IT! NOT THIS AGAIN!!!!' She screamed in her mind as this position is much more awkward then the last.'For Celestia sake why!?' Slowly she raised her head only for the position she's in restricts her body to where her neck was all that she could move. Her neck craned enough to were her muzzle was barely over his face. At this moment Twilight was able to get a decent whiff of his sent. 'It smells really odd, like copper but also like when a stallion gets back from a good workout.'
As she began to take in more of his feature she noticed his hair. It was spiked still and retained the same shape no matter how much time passed or when he moves. 'Does he use gel? Or is his hair naturally spiked like that? I wonder...' Without so much as a second thought, Twilight raised her hoof to his head and slowly placed it down and rubbed it.

'Its soft like a newborn foal?' She slowly moves her hoof away and saw that it shifted back to how it looked before she rubbed it. 'Huh? So it goes back to how looked before even after getting moved around so much?' She placed her hoof on his hair again and started to once more rub it.

"Twilight. What are you doing?" Twilight's eyes widen as she slowly looked down with her eyes only to see that Johann's eyes where now open and staring up at her.

Her heart started to beat faster and her muzzle a bright red as she stammered to get the words out." I-i well umm y-you see...." She watched as one of Johann's eyebrows raised up still waiting for an answer. "I was coming to check up on you is all haha." Finally she was able to speak.

"Okay then why are you rubbing my head like I'm a puppy?" He asked in a deadpan tone as Twilight still had her hoof on top his head.

"Oh well I thought I saw a bug in there and wanted to get it out in case it woke you up?" She said sounding like she was asking a question to see if he would approve of.

Eyebrows still raised and a small grin was beginning to creep onto his face. "Uh huh and is that why your currently straddling me like newlyweds on their first night together?" He said his grin growing wider.

Twilight's face was now crimson as she slowly takes in the position there in. Her mind raced for an answer hoping something would help. Finally she had one that might work,but she's was going to have to play her cards right.
"Well I was trying not to wake you up by flying over your head to grab it, but somepon...one decided to grab me and pull me down like I was some cuddly plushie." She said with a cheeky smile trying to hide her lie with her best poker face.

The tables had turned as Johann was now the one blushing noticing that his arm was indeed around her waist. "Um well..... I guess this one is on me then hehe." Slowly turning his head away and releasing Twilight from his grip, Johann slowly tries to get up. "Boy I'm starving....how about we go get breakfast?" He asked trying to weasel out.

Twilight giggled as she walked out the room with Johann following. 'THANK CELESTIA THAT WORKED!!!' She yelled in her mind as she walked as calmly as possible.

Later on in the dining room everyone remained silent as they ate there breakfast with the occasional hum of the delight. The breakfast which Johann found that he enjoyed the meal before him. Spike had prepared 4 stacks of pancakes for everyone along with two pieces of toast, and two eggs(sunny side up), and hash browns and a cup of orange juice for the drink.
Each of their plates were unique in their own way based on who was eating them. Spike had gem stones in his pancakes along with his hash browns. Twilight's plate was neat and organized even when she ate, she always made sure to eat in a pattern. First was eating one whole pancake before she moves to the hash browns then the eggs then juice and finally the toast. And she rinsed and repeated this process until her plate was cleared. Johann's plate was simple at the most. A few berries atop his pancakes with some syrup, and he places eggs on top of his toast, eating both at the same time. Finally he ate the hash browns savoring the taste and washing it down with the cup of orange juice.

"So Johann what do you plan to now since well you know..... you don't know how to get back?" Spike asked after finishing his last pancake and the rest of his drink.

"Good question." Johann leaned back into his chair crossing his arms to think. “Well if I know Bulma, she's probably trying to figure a way to bring me back or find me." Raising his hand to his chin,he began to think of other ways he can get home. "When I think about it , it's possible I'm in another universe. Maybe my dad can ask Whis if the other angels can help find me, who knows really? But for now, I guess my next goal right now is to find another place to call home."

Twilight looked over and wore a confused look on her face."What's wrong with the castle. You know you're more than welcome to stay here." Finishing her sentence twilight couldn't help noticing that spike had a cheeky grin on his face. "I-I-I mean I am the princess of friendship after all. What kind of friend would I be if I didn't help hehe?" Spike only snickered and rolled his eyes.

"Thanks but I already have a place to stay, all I really need a spot to set up." Johann's words caused both twilight and spike to tilt their heads in confusion.

"What you got a tiny house in your pocket or something hehe." Spiked joked playfully chuckling a bit.

"Yep sure do." Smiling Johann simply nodded to spikes joke.

"What?!" Spike and twilight spoke in unison.

As the morning sun rose high in the sky, turning into noon. Twilight and Spike lead Johann to an open field that was about fifty feet from the castle. The area was simple, green grass on the ground, flat land and a nearby lake. As Johann inspected the area, the rest of Twilight's friends showed up wondering what their alien friend was up to.

"Afternoon Twilight. What seems to be going on here?" Applejack asked walking up to twilight as she watched Johann inspect the area.

"Truth be told, I'm not sure myself. Johann said he wanted to set up a home till he can find a way back to his world." Twilight answered while still waiting to see what Johann would do. She watched as Johann inspected the area carefully.

"But wasn't he staying with you in your castle? Did something happened to make him want to leave? Not that I blame you or anything." Fluttershy sheepishly spoke.

Twilight's face blushed slightly as the events of this morning had just hit her like a herd of buffalo, where as spike was suppressing a chuckle. Not wanting to start up any gossip, Twilight tried to think of a good excuse or reason he would want to move out.

"It could be that our beds might not had been big enough for him, or maybe that he just wants some privacy with a home of his own." Her friends nodded seeing as that is a good reason why. 'Nailed it! Crisis averted.' Her posture relaxed as Johann started walking back to them with a smile on his face.

"Yep this seems like the perfect spot to set up shop. So would your girls mind stepping back a bit?" He motion with his hands for them to step back a few, Twilight and her friends did so without question .Johann slowly slipped his free hand into his pocket and pulled out something small,it was a small rectangular metal box. Everyone looked at this mysterious item and wonder what it could be. Johann opened the box to reveal small cylinders shaped items with numbers on them. Reaching in Johann pulled out one of the cylinders with a yellow label and the number 1 on it.

"What's that for Johann?" Rainbow dash asked hovering over him to get a better look at this weird item.

"It's a capsule and also has my home." Johann commented looking up at Rainbow Dash with a smile.

"Um darning I don't think you would fit in such a small thing like that?" Rarity spoke up feeling a bit concerned.”Perhaps staying on Twilight’s castle would be best"

"Haha you'll see what I mean girls." Johann smiled and moved his thumb to the top of the capsule bushing down on the top part.

*CLICK*

Quickly Johann tossed the capsule to the center of the field where he once stood and watch as the capsule hit the ground.

Rainbow Dash stared at the small capsule now laying on the ground "Um I think it was a dud joh....."

*BOOOM!!!!*

Before rainbow could finish her sentence a large explosion came from the capsule followed by a big cloud of smoke. As the ponies and spike coughed from the dust they slowly opened there eyes and were in awe. What once used to be an empty field now had a larger structure in it. The structure was very large and seemed to be dome shaped. Upon further inspection they saw that there were 4 dome shaped structures all connected together.

"Ponies and dragon say hello the capsule Corp mobile home, this bad boy here was personally design by the head of tech Bulma Briefs herself." The ponies looked at the marvel and where in awe once again. "This puppy here comes with all the basic essentials and then some. It has one bedroom, one bathroom, a living room/kitchen with fireplace. And the piece de resistance a gravity room for training."

"What's the gravity room for?" Rainbow asked quirking an eyebrow by the mention of this name.

"I'll tell you about it later for now let me give you guys the grand tour." Johann lead the the ponies and spike up to his home,opening the door Johann allowed the girls and spike into the house.

The first room was very spacious and the walls were was white like freshly fallen snow. There was two couches and a table in the center, along the wall stood a large flat screen T.V.

"Wow this place is huge, I mean there's enough room for a Pegasus to fly around in." Dash quoted hovering around the room.

"Yeah I would have set this place up yesterday, but we did take a long time answering those question. Speaking of which." Johann turned to Twilight only to see her eyes were fixated on something in the corner in the room. There at about 5 feet tall stood in the corner was a large bookshelf

"Are those books from...?" Twilight began to ask while her hoof was shaking as she pointed to the shelf.

"From my world yes. Some of these books are hand me downs from my oldest brother Gohan." Pulling a book from the shelf Johann to showed it to twilight and friends. "This is a book on human biology for example. See my brother is a professor now so he teach all kinds of subjects." Johann handed the book over to twilight who happily took it with her magic scanning the pages with a pure smile on her face that was infectious.

"Oh my gosh, oh my gosh! Books from another world!!!" Her voice started to become a higher pitch then normal and she began to pounce up and down like a child opening a gift on Christmas day.

Smiling Johann walked over to twilight. "How about a deal twi. See neither one of us know much about each other's history or culture, so how about I let you ready all the books here in exchange you let me read some of your books on Equestria culture and history?"

These words sparked a light in Twilight's eyes as the concept of learning about new history and culture along with sharing her knowledge of her own history and culture was by far and equal trade.

"You got a deal, ooh I can't wait to get started. I'll be back in a minute with the proper books and scrolls."A in a flash of purple Twilight had teleported away.

"Great Johann now you went and gave twilight a nerdgasm."Rainbow teased causing everyone to laugh.

Johann smiles as he scratched the back of his head."Haha my bad. Oh hey I forgot you wanted to see the gravity room right?" He asked pointing with his finger to a hallway.

Rainbow Dash's ears perked up and she nodded still curious by the name of it.
"Yeah so what?Does it make it so it's zero gravity?" She asked thinking she nailed it based on the name

"Nope actually the opposite." Turning towards the hallway that he mentioned and pointed to before he motioned with his hand for them to follow him.

As they walked down the hallway some of the ponies noticed the pictures along the walls. Somewhere of other people. One had a photo with a tall man next to a woman holding a baby in her arms, and there were two more males, one had short hair and glasses who was almost as tall as the older male. while the other looked almost identical to the older man,but was shorter and younger.

"Is that your family, Johann?" Fluttershy asked pointing to the picture on the wall as she hovered off the ground to get a closer look at it.

Johann smiles nodding his head. "Yep that my family." Raising his hand he pointed to each of the people in the photo. "The one in the orange and blue gi is my dad. Next to him is my mom. On the left is my big brother gohan,he's the one I told you guys about earlier. And then there my other brother goten, he actually looks more like our dad then me or Gohan hehe." He chuckled as he pointed out how much they look alike.

"Aww and is that baby you, you look so cute all small and innocent?" Pinkie said pointing to the baby in photo.

Johann couldn't help but blush a bit."Yep that's me. I was maybe a year old when this picture was taken." As Johann looked at the photo he wore a faraway gaze, as if he had remembered something sad.

"You alright there sugarcube?” Applejack asked placing her hoof on his arm trying to comfort him.

Johann eyes widen as he realized that he zoned our."What? Oh no. yeah I'm fine just thinking is all." Johann leaned on wall opposite of the photo staring at it. "I just hoping my family isn't to worried about me is all. Mom can get very emotional when it comes to her kids.”

Everyone looked to Johann feeling sorry for him, they could only imagine what he must be going through. Fluttershy walked up to him and leaned her head against his leg to comfort him."I'm sure you'll see them again soon, but for now you should relax and enjoy your time here." She looked up to him with a warm smile

Johann expression changed to match the warm smile that Fluttershy had given him,and leaned down and placed a hand on her head and gently rubbed it. "Thanks Fluttershy. I needed that." He thanked her by returning the warm smile.

"You're very welcome Johann."slowly she placed a hoof on one side of his shoulder and moved in giving a hug. A gentle blush grew and Johann check as he slowly raised his arm to return the hug. The ponies around all smiled as they could feel the mood become lighter.

Slowly moving back and standing up once more Johann took a deep breath and exhaled. "Alright. Let's check out that gravity room." With a bit more pep in his step Johann lead the ponies down the hall until the reached a steel door. As the ponies gathered around the door and inspected it, Twilight suddenly reappeared in the living room with a large stack of books and scrolls, and saw that the rest of her friend were down the hall. Placing the books and scrolls down on the table in the middle of the room she walked toward the group.

"Now this here is the gravity room. Inside I can manipulate the gravity so that it can become stronger than Earth’s normal gravity." Johann started to explain as he watch Twilight rejoin the group from the back.

"But why would you want to somethin’ like that? I mean wouldn't that put more strain on ya body " applejack asked tilting her head scratching her chin.

"Yeah won't that make your body heavier or something?I'm no egghead but even I can understand that." Rainbow Dash question shrugging her shoulders.

"That's the point. See by making the gravity stronger it adds more weight to your body making it difficult to move." The ponies still couldn't understand why Johann would want something like that as they all titled their head in confusion. "However if you can manage to move around like you would with normal gravity then your body can get stronger. For example certain attributes can be increased such as strength, speed, endurance ect."

Rainbow Dash’s interest was peaked at she heard him list off the different attributes, one of them being speed that really caught her attention. "So by increasing the gravity your essentially making your body stronger for when it returns back to normal." Twilight easily deduced this clopping her hooves together.

Johann nodded making Twilight grin with pride that she was correct"Exactly. My dad and Vegeta used this method to get stronger, so I asked Bulma if she could make me one" Opening the door to a large room that was slightly large then the previous living room. In the center of the room was a large cylinder machine, around it was a large metal circle that was next to the machine engraved into the ground

"This part here is where I input the setting."Placing his hand on the machine and giving a good tap of his hand. "Now if you guys could stand inside the circles over there I'll get this baby running and set it to mmm...... three times normal earth gravity." He pointed to the engraved metal circles that were closest to the machine.The all nodded and made there way into the circle. Walking over the machine Johann began to type in some kind of code. A digital 1 appears on the screen.

*CLICK CLICK CLICK *

After pressing some more bottoms the digital 1 turned into a 3. "Alright we are now at 3 times normal earth gravity..or in this case 3 times normal Equestrian gravity." Turning to the ponies Johann smiled, raising his hand clenching and unclenching his hand repeatedly.

The girls look around lifting there hooves as if to expect something to happen. "Um Johann nothings happening, you sure that contraption of yours is working?" Applejack stated raising an eyebrow.

"Haha that cuz your still in the circle, remember? Fair warning once you step out you'll feel the effect right away."

Rainbow dash was the first to try. Raising her hoof out of the circle to have it immediately slam down to the ground with a loud thud. "Woah what the hay!?"Pulling her hoof back in, looking at it with surprise."It felt like I stuck my hoof under a strong waterfall,but with more force as me pressure."

"Yeah haha that's how it was for me when I started too." Johann watch as the ponies and spike all started to try and step out of the circle.

Each of them walked out and were slightly crouching down, as if trying to stand with large heavy objects on their backs. As Johann watch them all he notice that two of the six were having a very difficult time stay up. One being Fluttershy, which didn't surprise Johann. She seemed like the kind of pony who wouldn't be too strong. The second was the one that really caught him off guard. It was Rainbows Dash, she was red in the face trying to stay up. Without a second to spare, Johann ran to the machine and slammed his hand on a big red button labeled "IN CASE EMERGENCY".The two pegasi fell to the ground panting heavily,lying on the ground. Johann quickly ran over to the two on the floor and looked them over. "Are you two okay?" Johann looked back at the other four and spike seeing that they were all fine, but they were panting as hard as Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash.

Slowly the two pegasi got up, breathing much easier. "We're fine Johann, but that was way more intense then I thought." Rainbow said, still panting.

Twilight walked over to the two. "I don't understand. Why did they have it harder the then the rest of us?" Twilight asked placing a wing on Fluttershy to comfort her.

Johann slowly looked at Rainbow and Fluttershy, then back to the other four and spike. He repeated this process until a thought occurred. "I may have a theory on what it might be, but like I said it's just a theory."

"What is it Johann?" Twilight asked tilting her head along with the others.

"Well I haven't read the books on pony biology, but are pegasi skeletons similar to birds? Like lighter bones and hallow?"

"Yeah why?" Rainbow Dash said on behalf of her and Fluttershy,looking to him wondering what there biology has to do with anything.

"Well, your bones probably can't handle the stress that earth ponies and unicorns can. Since there bodies don't need to fly and there bones could he stronger.”

Twilight's eyes sparked at Johann almost like he had found a kin in knowledge. "Wow Johann I didn't expect you to pick up stuff like that so fast." Twilight said with impressed expression still on her face.
A slight blush appears on his face by the sudden compliment.

"So what your saying," Rainbow started. "Is that I can't try with you cuz I'm a pegasus?" Johann saw an expression on Rainbow’s face that he didn't think she could make. It was a look of defeat, and a lack of hope in her eyes. Tho Johann had barely know her for more than two days, he felt like she was the kind of person..ugh pony to never give up. This sight was unsettling for Johann.

"Well....um maybe?" Johann scratched the back of his head trying to think of a solution. Crossing his arms and thinking Johann thought of something. Looking back at the machine. "Well I did have the setting on level 3 so maybe that was to much for you."

Rainbow’s ears perked up as she looked up to him with new hope."Well can we try it please?" She slowly started moving closer to him.

"I'm not sure Rainbow. You could get-” before Johann could finish Rainbow flew up to his face

"Please Johann?" She said in a sweet cute voice as she made puppy dog eyes at him.
Johann was unable to look away as he started to clenching his chest feeling his heart melt by the sight before him.

"Alright, fine! We'll give it a shot!! Just put the puppy dog eyes away!" Moving to the machine Johann motion the ponies to get back in the circle again. He heard Rainbow cheer, and what he thought was her throwing a hoof in the air in success.
Back at the machine he began to type on the machine again. The digital 1 turned to a 2.
Before Johann can speak rainbow dash walked out of the circle. This time she was able to move a lot easier and wasn't falling and panting like before. "Hey, this isn't as bad as it was before." She was still moving around slowly, but with a bit more ease.

"Well I'm glad about that. You guys want to try too?" Looking back he watch as the rest of them walked out of the circle and started to move around. Even Fluttershy was having it a bit easier.For the next hour the spent time walking around inside until they felt like they had enough. Walking out the room after shutting off the machine the ponies started to notice the difference in there weight.

"My word I feel light as a feather." Rarity started to prance about. "I feel as if I lost 10 pounds hehe, oh this may be a could way to trim down my figure." Everypony smiled agreeing.

"So Johann what is your limit so far on this thing? " Twilight asked pointing back to the room. "Since well you know you weren't having as much trouble earlier like the rest of us?" The rest of the ponies and spike leaned in closer to hear his response .

"Oh well let me think about it?" Scratching his head he took a minute to think. "Well my limit is 15, 20 if I lose the weighted training gear."

The girls mouth hung wide open. As they could only imagine what that could feel like.
"20 really?! Really!!" Rainbow dash yelled her wings stretch out.

"And what do you mean by weighted training gear?" Twilight asked curious by what he said.

"Oh well that's what these are." Johann tuged at the blue under shirt that was under his orange gi, along with the blue wrist bands and boots he wore. "These have a certain weight to them, my dad used the same method when he was my age to get stronger."

"Well how much do they way then?" Twilight asked .

"About 40 kilos each. Why"

Twilight's jaw dropped and her eyes were almost ready to burst out of her head"40 kilos!? But if all five of them way that much then your clothes all together weigh 200 kilos!!!!"

Johann simply nodded as if it was a casual as someone asking about what color socks he wore."Um twi we don't know what a kilo is. So mind telling us in English what it means. Cuz 200 pounds is a pretty big number.

"It's not 200 pound, Dash. 200 kilos is about 440.925 pounds!" She stated causing everyone head to snap back to Johann in awe.

"So that's why your clothes were so heavy, no wonder I couldn't lift them this morning." Twilight blurted out quickly covering her mouth.

"Why would you be trying to be lift his clothes off the floor sugarcube?" Applejack asked raising an eyebrow. The other stared at her, waiting for her response. Johann, however, was blushing and looking away, trying not to get involved.
