Truth under the moon lite night

High in the sky Johann and Rainbow Dash flew above the clouds making there way to a beautiful town amongst the clouds. Johann found the town to be absolutely amazing, Its design looked that to a creek style city with columns made if clouds and waterfalls that poured from the side in a way one could mistake for the home of the Greek gods of Olympus. Johann was amazed by this new location and took it all in before feeling his shoulder being tapped. Turning his head to his left was Rainbow Dash with and almost pouty look on her muzzle."Okay were here now you tell me how you did that red thing from earlier!!" She demanded hooves crossed as she flew.

Johann only smirked as he turned his body and folded his arms behind his head as if he was floating on water. "Sorry Dash but I can't tell you, I mean where would the fun be if i told you all of my moves and secrets?" He joked as winked at her with his tongue sticking out as he picked up speed heading toward the town.

Dash faced scrunched up as she was left unanswered and bolted to catch up with Johann. Soon they were hovered above the town and made there descent. Dash gently landed on the cloud cover ground with easy. Her mind quickly realized she forgot one important detail to tell her new friend. Quickly she turned to Johann and held out a hoof "wait Johann I forgot to mention that only pegasie can walk on...." But it was to late Johann made his way down and fell threw the clouds with a loud ‘YEP’
"Clouds...oh boy." She hurried to where he fell threw scanning the ground.

In a moment she jumped into the air as something pulled on her tail. Quickly turning in midair as she saw Johann poking his head out of the cloud floor with a grin on his face before ducking down. Dash looked around her tuning her body trying to see where he would pop out. In the next second she burst out laughing as something was tickling her underbelly, looking down she saw the unmistakable hand and arms of johanns tickling her from below. "Hehe Hey knock that off hahahahaha!!!" She tried to speak threw her laughs.

"Aww what's the matter cute little Dash is ticklish? " he said with a smug look as he continued to tickle her underbelly while slowly rising out of the clouds.

"First of all I'm not cute!!" Dash quickly darts to the left and takes a defensive stance. "Second if you try that again I swear to you that you'll be coughing up cloud dust for a week!"

Johann holds his hand up to show that he will stop. "Okay okay point taken. So how come you wanted to show me this places?"

Straightening herself out Dash regains her composure and clears her throats. "I wanted to introduce you to my wonderbolt teammates. The last time they saw you was when you first appeared in equestria. And when you made them all fall into the lake." She raised an eyebrow to show her announce at that last bit.

“Pfft not my fault they were slow" rising bother arms behind his head as she floated toward the town without a care.

“SLOW !!!!”Dash's faces began to burn with a bright red of rage as she had just heard him mock her teammates. “The wonderbolts are the fastest flying pegasus to ever exist in all of equestria!!!” she began to shot dagger at Johann as he continued to float nonchalantly.

“But are they the fastest begins in the universe?” he asked looking to Dash while holding up a finger.

“W-well uhh.” Dash had never ever considered the idea of life beyond equestria and now here she is wondering if there could be someone faster than even her. “well no but still calling my teammates slow is where I draw the line!!” she held her chest out in a scene to intimidation.

This action cause Johann to hold a hand to his mouth as he tried to suppress a laugh. Here before him is a blue pegasus that is half his size puffing out her chest in what one can only describe as adorable. However he could tell that she felt offended by his words and that she felt strongly about her teammates pride. Taking a deep breath and calming down Johann looked to Dash and bowed. “Sorry Dash I didn't mean to disrespect your team, or you."

Dash had lowered her chest down and nodded her head to show that he was forgive. “Alright I'll let you off this time, but don't ever diss my team again. Got it.” she flew in close making sure that she was at eye level with him. Johann nodded in agreement.”good well now that we have that settled let's head into town Spitfire and the rest of the team should be here today for training.”

===============================

Tall hoops floated in the air while swinging pillars moves side to side, and a runway close by. This was the wonderbolt training grounds,a floating island close to cloudsdale.
A yellow fur pegasus with an orange mane
stood at the center as new Wonderbolts recruit soared through the obstacle course.

“Spitfire" Dash called out landing a foot away as she trots up to her wonderbolt capital.

“Hey crash glad to see your recovered" turning her head to a light blue pegasus stallion with navy blue mane. “Soarin keep an eye on the rookies for me!!!” The stallions have a salute with his wing as monitored the pegasi flying threw the training courses.
“So crash what bring you here today, I thought I gave you the day off today? “

Dash gave off a sheepish grins “ Oh well yeah you did,but I wanted to introduce to a new friend of mine.”

“Oh really? Well where is this new friend of yours?” Spitfire asked looking behind Dash to see if anypony was there.

“He should be coming around any second now.” Dash turned her back to where she expected him to arrive from.

“Oh ho he? Did Crash find a stallion she like?” Spitfire teased poking Dash in the side with her wing.

“What?! N-no! Just promise not to freak out when you see him"

“Come on Crash I've seen my fair share of weird stuff how bad can he b…..” before Spitfire could finish Johann came in to view and slowly made his way down until his feet touched the concrete runway. Spitfire’s eye shot open as the creature from a few night ago strolled up to her and Dash, all while wearing a smile on his face.

Johann walked up till he was about a foot apart from the two pegasi. “Hi there names Johann pleasure to meet ya.” he bowed his head and looked at the stunned pony.

Spitfire looked back to Dash who simply made a gesture to take a breath and calm down. “Uh hi. I'm Spitfire” extending her wing out to Johann as she introduce herself.
Johann gently grips her wing and shakes it up and down.

“So I wanted to introduce to Johann so that way I can both inform you that the creature is not a threat, and to have him meet the team and apologize” Dash explained as she jabbed Johann side.

“Oh right!! I'm sorry for causing you and your team so much trouble on our first encounter I was confused at the time.” Johann bowed again to show his sincerity.

“Oh well that fine. I'm just glad your not some evil monster bent on destroying Equestria.”

“Hahahaha no way I wouldn't dream of doing something that evil.” Johann laughed since this was the opposite reason for his existence.

===============================

Later on Twilight and the rest of the elements joined Dash and Johann as they chatted with the Wonderbolts. Twilight preformed the cloud walking spell to see weather or not magic could be used on him. To everypony's delight the spell was effective as Johann bounced along the clouds.

“Holy cow this is fun.” he jeered as he bounced up and down. “ And these clouds are so soft I could sleep on one for the rest of my life.” leaning his body against the soft yet firm clouds Johann gazed up at the sky online to see that the sun was on the verge of going down. Johann straighten himself up and turned to Twilight. “Um hey Twilight just out of curiosity what's tonight's lunar cycle?”

Twilight placed a hoof to her chin as she thought about it carefully. “ I'm pretty sure that tonight will be a full moon. Why do you ask?”

Johann face began to sweat as his eyes darted back and forth.”Oh no reason I was just curious is all.” His eye kept darting around until they landed on Rainbow Dash. And as if a bolt of lightning struck his brain Johann had just the plan he needed. “Hey Dash!!!”

Dash turned to Johann who had called out to her.” Yeah what's up dude?”

“How does a no hold bar race sound.”

Dash’s eyes glint in her eye at this sudden challenge,stepping forward to Johann with her wings spread out. “name the place and I'll beat you there”

“Back to Ponyville!!” Johann said while getting into a runner stance on the runway .

Dash soon stood next to Johann assuming the same pose.“Your on!!!”

The two races took their positions as Pinkie bounces in front them with a Checkered Flag in her hoof. “ Are you guys ready?!” pinkie held the flag up looking at Dash and Johann who nodded. “On your mark…..Get set………..Go!!” the flag and dropped and Dash and Johann pushes off the ground with tremendous force as they bolted into the sky.

Dash had gained the lead as she flew straight forward leaving a small vapor trail behind her as she flew. Looking back she wanted to see how far behind Johann was,but to her surprise Johann wasn't in sight. No sooner that she looked back did a tapping feeling came from her other side. Turning her head back she was surprised to see him keeping up with her and with little effort. Soon a grin began to grow on her face,never before had anypony been able to give her an actual challenge and when somepony did she managed to push herself to make sure that it would never happen again. Rather then being upset that Johann was keeping up with her,Dash felt joy in knowing that there is something that can give her the thrill and challenge that she wanted. “This….is….so…..AWESOME"

Johann smiled brightly at her enthusiasm” Can you fly faster then this Rainbow?”

Dash gave a determine grin.”YOU BET!” In mer moments there bodies began to pick up speed as they street across the sky.

===============================
The sun was nearly setting across the horizon bathing the sky in a light orange hue.
Dash hooves touched down onto ground next to Johann’s home as she had been the first to make it to ponyville “Haha I win!!!!” With plenty of energy to spare she began to do a victory dance in mid air.

And not a minute later Johann arrived alongside her painting heavily. “you….win….dash.” Johann was out of breath as Dash continued to Dash in midair. “I'm gonna head inside go. Catch your tomorrow.” He said as she opened the door to his house.

“Alright catch your later. And hey that was a good race…...that I won ha ha!!” Dash continued to gloat as Johann was still catching his breath as he enter his house.

Johann closed the door behind him and stopped breathing heavily and let out a sigh of relief as he straightened himself. “Phew made it home and before the moon could even come out.” Quickly he made his way to each of the curtains and closed them all shut making sure that there was no way for the moon light to get in. Once they were all clothed he proceeded to make his way toward his bedroom and prepared for bed. Open one of the dresser drawers he pulled out a white taken top and pajama pants and slipped off his orange gi and weighted training clothes and into his night attire. Moving to his bed he carefully lift the covers and slips underneath,once he was nice and settled he clapped three times causing the light to turn off. Closing the shades on the window of his room making it pitch black now and Johann closed his eyes,before he could drift off into sleep he reflects on the last two days events. His morning started off a bit awkward at first,what with Twilight and all. Then setting up his home new place, to being welcomed by the town, and meeting the wonderbolts and apologize for before. However he did feel a tinge of guilt for tricking his friends, but he felt it was necessary in order to avoid a horrible outcome. And the wave of guilt only grew large knowing that he had left out important bit of information regarding his tail. “If they knew about my tail and what it is really meant for they would freak out and never look at me the same.” Turning to his side Johann closed his eyes and soon allows his mind to drift as he fades away into slumber.

=================================

Johann found himself surrounded in a white void with seemingly no end and no sound. Not a thing was in sight as he turned his head looking around him, the void continued in every direction he looked.

“Hello?” he called out only to have his voice echoed back to him. The echo soon fade away leaving the void silent once more.

“How pathetic of you.” a deep gruff voice came from behind Johann causing him to turn back. There behind him was a tall man with green skin wearing a turban and cloak staring down at him.”All that training to make your a warrior and you fail miserably.”

‘Piccolo I'm trying really I am" Johann could feel himself cowering as he stepped back only to feel himself bump into someone.

“I thought you could have been better than I was when I was your age,but it seems your just as your yet another disappointment.” turning his head he saw a another man equally as tall as Johann with short black spiky hair wearing the same orange and blue gi that he wore.

“B-big brother I'm sorry I just can't yet. Gohan I don't know what I'm doing wrong.” he watch his brother glaring at him as she tries to move to his left only to feel a painful force on his side knocking him to the ground.

“Your a pathetic excuse for a saiyan warrior and the very idea that you share the same bloodline with my superior race is sickening!!” Slowly turning his body while on the floor Johann could see the one who knocked him down.

Standing there arm folded with long spiked hair wearing a saiyan battle suit stood the Prince of the Saiyans.” Vegeta I've been pushing myself none stop to get strong, but I just can't do it yet.” still cowering in fear Johann started to crawl backwards as the three slowly made their way towards. As he continued to crawl backwards Johann once again finds his back against someone else.

Look up he could see a man staring down at him with a look of indifference. With black spiky hair wearing the same gi as himself Johann found himself staring at his beloved father. “D-dad please help I don't know what to.” he asked turn himself around and clutching at his father shirt.”I've pushed myself and try so hard and I still can't. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT I HAVE TO DO GOKU!?”

Goku remained silent as she watched his son groveling for help. Placing a hand on his shoulder and looking him in the eyes he start to speak “I had such high hopes for you Johann,but it seems I was wrong to believe in your potential.” Johann eyes widen as he felt these words sink into his heart. In the next instance his father grip tighten on his shoulder as he was lifted up and tossed away onto ground. Soon the four started to line up and extend their arms out as yellow orbs of light began to glow.

“Now die “ the four said in unison as four blast of energy came soaring at Johann who closed his eyes and waited for the end. But as second go by nothing ever came, daring to look and see what has happened.

Upon opening his eyes he saw that the balls of energy had stopped dead in their tracks and disappeared in a blue mist, the same happened to the warrior that had attacked him. Soon the once blank white void began to disappear and turn into a vibrant blue with speck of white almost as if he were staring at the night sky. “Thou seems to have some most unpleasant dreams young saiyan.”A female voice came from above

Turning his upward Johann saw a pony making its way down to him from a crescent moon. She had dark blue furr and possessed wings and a horn with a starry mane that flowed elegantly even though there was no breeze to do so,to which Johann made the assumption that she is an Alicorn much like Twilight. Had it not been for the books he read that he borrowed from Twilight he wouldn't have known who this Alicorn was,It was the princess of the night Luna. Facing her Johann gave a slight bow before addressing her. “Princess Luna I presume ?”

“Thou are correct in thy deduction. And you are the warriors from a far off place correct? “ Luna asked touching down on the ground.

“Um yeah but how did you know that?”Johann was a bit surprised to see that Princess Luna knew him,even though he had only been in equestria for 3 days.

“My sister beloved ex student Twilight Sparkle had sent us an extremely detailed letter of your existence” her tone of voice sounded of a tinge of regret.

Johann winces now understanding what she meant and regret giving Twilight so much information. “Eh he he sorry that my bad.” he smiled weakly as he scratched the back of his head.

“Fret not young warriors we found thyn origins to be rather interesting to say the least.” Luna slowly made her way closer to Johann.”Now then you must be wondering why we the princess of the night have arrived?” Johann simply nodded. “We are not only the ruler of the night, we also rule over the dream realm as well. And whenever ever a pony or in this case human is in need of help or guidance.”

Johann felt as if there was no point in denying that he was in need of help,but could this pony really help him he wondered. “Well as a saiyan my pride would usually keep me from asking other for help,but I think I can set that aside for this one time.”

Luna nodded as her horn glows and a pair of couches appeared. She mentioned him to sit down,to which he obliged taking his seat.”So Johann who were those who attacked you in your dream?”

Exhaling he looked to the lunar princess “ those were my mentor and friend/family”

“I see,but to what reason would they attack you and day such terrible things?”

Johann hung his head as he must confess the truth. “it's because I lack the ability to transform into a super saiyan.”

Luna could only raise a brow at this before speaking. “Ah yes Twilight sparkle as mentioned this in her report. And this is a problem?”

“For me it is. You see as a saiyan the power to transform into a super saiyan is like a right of passage. All the other saiyans on earth are able to achieve this feat.” Johann only glitched his fist feeling frustrated.” But for me no matter how hard I train and try as I may I'm still incapable of achieving my goal.”

Standing up from her own seat Luna moves over to Johann and sits next to him.”Perhaps thou are going about this all wrong. Tell me to what reason would bring about this super saiyan form in which your speak?”

“Well according to my father it is sometimes threw the pain of lost or an unforgivable rage,or when your mind body and soul need it.”

“So tell me my friend have you ever experienced the pain of lost or unforgivable rage?” Luna questioned. Johann shook his head.”Have you been a conflict that would require you to transform?” again he shook his head.

“Actually since the day of my birth Earth has been at peace since.” The moment the words left his lips Johann was in shock,true to his words the Earth hadn't been in any really danger like it once had been before.

Luna gave a kind smile.”Then perhaps that's is the reason. As you said the only other reason would be that your mind,body and soul hasn't had the need for it. And considering that with in the time you spent in Equestria you show that your more then strong enough to handle whatever comes your way so far. If that incident with the Timberwolves is anything to go by of course”

Johann was left in deep thought by Luna’s words. For the first time he finally had a possible reason why he hasn't been able to turn super saiyan. And it was true that maybe he was as strong as he needed to be in this new world.

“Now before we leave would thou care to explain the reasons you would rush home when informed that a full moon would be present tonight?” Luna asked with a raised brow.

Johann could feel his heart sink into his stomach by her question. “H-how did…?”

“Twilight sent a recent let stating your look of concern you had when she informed you about a full moon. Now we will ask again, what troubles you about the full moon?”

Letting out a defeated sigh Johann gently pulled his tail from around his waist.”It's because of this your majesty.” Luna only tilted her head in confusion “You see Luna aside from the legendary transformation of super saiyan there is one other form we can take,but this form is a primal one that I could never hope to control.”

“And pray tell what is this form you speak so fearfully of?”

Sighing and leaning back into the coach he spoke”The form is know as a great ape. During a full moon should a saiyan with a tale gaze up at the moon we undergo a primal transformation that turns us into a giant ape like monster. For a small percentage some can control this form,however I do not fall within that percentage and thus I lose all control and start to destroy everything and everyone around me weather there friend or foe.”

“I assume that you had already transferred into this creature?” look inquired as she places a hoof on his shoulder to comfort him.

Nodding Johann look up to the ceiling exhaling “When I was 10 years old I was training with my big brother and Mr.Piccolo. One night I was going about my normal training routine when I remember looking up at the full moon for the first time and the next thing I know I black out and wake up to my brother and Mr.Piccolo beaten and bloody. They told me what happened and that they had to hold me off.”

“I'm sorry to hear that,but does thou think you should keep that a secret from your friends, they may under your predicament and try to help you?”

“Truth is Luna I'm scared they won't, that they'll think of me as a monster and want to push me away. I just can't let that happen,besides the full moon only happens once a month (no period joke guys) so I just need to be indoors next time when it happens.”tears slowly began to roll down his face Johann face as he clenched his fist.

“Johann you shouldn't have to worry about something as trivial as that,believe me when I say I know from experience that Twilight and her friends can both help you and still be your friend.”wrapping her wing around Johann’s shoulder Luna embraced the grieving saiyan in a warm hug.

Wiping his tears away Johann looked up to Luna hopefully “You think so?” Luna nodded her head as she hopped off the coach.

“Believe me young warrior thou aren't as alone as you would think,now we must be off.” as Luna began to walk off into the distance she turned her head back to Johann “By the way you should receive a letter from our sister in the morning for a summons to the capital, and also do try not to panic when you wake up I'm sure your friend wouldn't want a rude awakening “

Johann opened his mouth to speak but a blinding light appeared before him. Once the light had fadden his eyes open to see that he was in his room and the sunlight was slowly beaming thru his window shades.”What did se mean by not panic and waking a friend? As if to answer his questions Johann felt a bit of wait on his chest,looking down he saw a blue bundle nestled against him. ‘What is it with ponies where I sleep?’
