Parallel Quest Two
The Saiyan and The Girls

Sunset quickly opens the door to her home as she dragged the unconscious Saiyan inside before quickly closing it. Once she was inside, she placed the Saiyan onto the couch before heading over to the window to close the blinds just in case someone walked by her house and saw the Saiyan knocked out on her couch covered in bruises.

“As if I didn’t need more crazy stuff happening.” She said as she walked over to the Saiyan to get a better look at her. “Well she’s still breathing so that’s good. But by the looks of it, she’s almost like how I was after…” Sunset grimaced from the thought of the aftermath of her brainwashing an entire school before shaking her head and picking up the phone next to the couch. “Maybe I should call 911...no, wait. If she just appeared out of nowhere like how I did when I came out of the statue at school...Better call the girls over here before school starts.”

Sunset dialed Applejack’s phone number as she waited for her to pick it up. After the third ring, she heard the phone being picked up to hear Applejack’s voice on the other end.

“Hello?”

“Applejack. It’s me, Sunset.”

“H-Hey Sunset! I wasn’t expecting you to call any of us after the….well…you know?” Applejack said as Sunset rolled her eyes.

“Yes, yes, I know what I did. You don’t have to bring that up. Listen, can you get the girls over here to my place before school starts.”

“Yeah, I can. What’s wrong? Did something happen to you?”

“No, nothing happens to me per se. It’s just that...did you feel something shake the ground this morning?”

“Surprisingly, yeah. I felt the ground shake here in Sweet Apple Acres. Big Mac went out to investigate what it was seeing how we figured it was around here, but he couldn’t find the source of it.”

“Makes sense. But what if I were to say I might’ve found out what was the cause of it?” There was a long pause over the phone before Applejack spoke up.

“....Beg your pardon?”

“Look, just bring the girls over here. And have Fluttershy bring some medical supplies.”

“Medical supplies? Wait, did someone get hurt where you are from that earthquake?”

“You….could say that, yes. Look, just bring them here ASAP, okay?”

“Alright, I’ll send a message to the others to meet you at your place.”

“Thanks, Applejack,” Sunset said before hanging up the phone. As she hangs up the phone, she soon turns her attention to the Saiyan as she slowly begins to walk over to her. “Just what in Celestia’s name happened to you?” She asked as she scanned over her body. “Maybe she’s a pony that accidentally fell into the portal by accident? No, then she would’ve appeared in front of the statue in Canterlot High. Not in front of my house….Maybe I should send a message to Twilight?” Just as Sunset was about to lose herself in her thoughts about how this girl came into the world, she was soon brought back into reality by someone knocking on the door.

“That was fast,” Sunset said as she headed over to the front door. “I didn’t think you girls would get here so quickly-” She stopped midway in her sentence as she was taken by surprise by two police officers standing in front of the doorway of her house. “Oh! H-Hello Officers. H-How can I help you?”

“Good Morning ma’am. We were wondering if we could ask you a few questions if you don’t mind?” Asked a white-colored male with royal blue hair.

“Well, I was planning on getting to school a bit early. But seeing how there’s a giant hole in the middle of the street in front of my house, I get the feeling I might be late getting out. So I guess I have no problem answering your questions.” She said as she leaned against the doorway to block his vision from seeing Belle on her couch.

“It won’t take long. We’re wondering if you saw what could’ve caused the damage outside. Like did you see anyone place something on the ground or did something fall out of a truck that might’ve been from a construction crew?”

“No, I didn’t see anything that could’ve caused this. I was just waking up and was about to get cleaned up before heading over to Canterlot High. That is until I felt the ground shake and knocked me off balance. Wait, why would you assume it was an explosion?”

“We got a phone call from someone around here saying that there was some kind of explosion.”

“Not to mention that someone saw somebody jump into the hole and was carrying something out of it.” said the officer with blue skin and white hair. “We’re asking around the neighborhood here to see if everyone was okay, or if they saw what was the cause of it.”

“O-Oh okay,” Sunset said as an awkward smile grew across her face. “Crap, I forgot that I’m not the only one that lives on this block! If they see the injured girl on the couch, then I’ll be in even more trouble.”

“So you haven’t seen anything out of the ordinary?” The Officer with royal blue hair asked as Sunset shook her head.

“Nope, I was in the bathroom at the time and calling my friends to make sure they were okay. Is it true that everyone in Canterlot felt that?”

“Given the number of phone calls we're getting, yes. So far no one is hurt or anything. And the only environmental damage was just a few old trees falling on some of the telephone lines in different areas of town. Don’t be surprised if your power goes out all of a sudden.”

“Okay, anything else you want me to answer sir?” Sunset asked as they both shook their heads.

“No, that will be all. Sorry for taking up your time.” He said before he along with his partner started to walk away from Sunset’s home and headed down the street to the next house. Sunset sighs in relief before she quickly closes the door.

“Oh thank Celestia that they didn’t ask me to come inside. Faust knows that I would be in trouble if that’s the case.” She said before letting out a yelp from hearing a loud knock at her door, followed by a familiar tomboyish voice.

“Hey, Sunset! Are you there!? It’s us!” yelled Rainbow Dash as Sunset snorted in anger as she quickly opened the door and glared at the rainbow-haired human.

“Can’t you just knock on the door as a normal person would? You scared the living crap out of me!”

“Well sorry. I didn’t think you would be that close to your door.” She said before Rarity noticed Sunset’s hair being messy along with a tired expression on her face.

“I take it you didn’t get much sleep last night Sunset?” Rarity asked as the bacon-haired human sighed and motions them to come inside.

“I've been spending most of my free time doing community service at the school, remember? I’m going to be more tired than I already am. Anyway, did you all get the message Applejack sent you?”

“Y-Yes, but I’m still wondering why you wanted me to bring over a medkit that I use for injured animals,” Fluttershy said as she took notice of Belle on the couch. “Who’s that on your couch?” She asked before noticing Pinkie Pie hopping over to Belle.

“Oh! Is this your sister Sunset?” Pinkie Pie asked as Sunset deadpanned.

“Do we even look related, Pinkie Pie?”

“Hmmmmmmmmm.” Pinkie Pie looked over at Sunset, then back at Belle, then back at Sunset again before shrugging. “Maybe? I mean you girls didn’t think I was related to Maud the other day, remember?”

“....Before we end up going off-topic. Everyone here felt the ground shake this morning right?” Sunset asked as the girls nodded. “Well, what if I were to say that the girl on the couch was the cause behind that along with the giant hole in the street outside.” Everyone minus Pinkie blinked at this as there was a moment of silence lingering in the atmosphere of the house. Though the silence was broken by Rainbow Dash speaking up.

“You’re joking right?”

“I know it’s hard to believe. But when I felt the ground shake, I decided to see what happened. Only to my surprise that this girl was inside the crater. Which is the reason why I called you all here.”

“Wait, why didn’t you take her to the hospital?” Rarity asked.

“Because I think this girl is from my world. You know the one where I...tried to take over it with an army of...mindless students…”

“I don’t think she’s from your world, Sunset.” Pinkie Pie said as Sunset turned her attention to the party girl.

“What makes you say that?” Rarity asked, raising an eyebrow at Pinkie.

“Do all ponies have monkey tails?” She said as everyone was taken by surprise by this. Pinkie began to examine the tail before starting to play with it. “Wow, it’s so soft and smooth~!”

“Pinkie stop doing that to the poor...whatever she is.” Applejack said as she walked over to Pinkie and slapped Belle’s tail from out of her hand.

“Aw! But I was having fun.” Pinkie huffed in disappointment.

“And for all we know, you might be hurting her by doing that.” She said before motioning for Fluttershy to come over to the Saiyan to see if she’s hurt or anything.

“Okay, guess we can knock being from your world off the list.” Rainbow Dash said before looking at Sunset. “Wait….could she be an alien from another world!?”

“Aliens do not exist Rainbow Dash.” Rarity said with a deadpan expression.

“Says the magical talking ponies that came to Canterlot High during the dance and one that we’re currently friends with. Also how else would you explain the giant freakin hole in front of Sunset’s house?”

“.....Fair point. But let’s not assume she is an alien until proven otherwise.”

“Not to mention these weird cylinder pill things.” Pinkie said as she pulled out six weird gray-colored capsules with the capsule corp logo on them.

“Where did you get those?” Sunset asked.

“Found them on the ground outside of your house at the front door. Hey, what does Capsule Corp mean?”

“It means you shouldn’t be sticking your nose into someone else’s stuff.” Applejack said as she tried to snatch the capsules from Pinkie, only for the party girl to pull her hand away from Applejack and stick her tongue out at her.

“Nope~”

“Pinkie, give them to me. They’re not yours.”

“Aw, but don’t you want to see what’s inside them? They may have something special inside them~”

“It’s not right to look into someone else’s stuff and you know it.”

“Oh come on Applejack. Aren’t you curious as well to see what they do~?” Rainbow Dash asked, chiming in on the conversation with Applejack and Pinkie.

“Of course not! For all we know, those might explode or something worse. Now drop them Pinkie.” Applejack ordered as the party girl quickly dropped them. “Thank you. Now back to the topic at hand. What are we going to do with this….alien?” She asked before noticing Fluttershy walking over to Belle to try and examine the Saiyan as best she could.

“Well, we can’t take her to the hospital if that's what you’re suggesting?” Sunset stated. “ I mean I know I can pass as a human, but not this alien due to her tail.”

“We can’t just leave her like this. For all we know, she might be seriously injured from that crater that she made outside.”

“Why do you think I called Fluttershy over to at least try to help?”

“No offense darling. But Fluttershy treats animals that are injured, not...um...aliens.” Rarity stated as Sunset sighed in annoyance.

“It’s better than nothing. Unless you want this world’s government to try and do Faust knows what to this girl.” Sunset said before looking over at Fluttershy who was touching and moving certain limbs on the Saiyan girl. “How is she?”

“Well, she doesn’t appear to have any broken bones or limbs. She’s breathing normally, so that means she doesn’t have any broken ribs piercing her lungs.” Fluttershy said before opening the Saiyan's mouth. “No blood in her mouth, so no internal organ damage.” She said before closing her mouth. “It’s a bit of a surprise that she’s not seriously hurt or anything after you said you found her in that hole outside your house.”

“So she’s perfectly okay then?” Applejack asked as Fluttershy shook her head.

“I wouldn’t say perfectly okay. She might have some bruises underneath her clothes that I can’t see, but she’ll be okay to walk around so long as she doesn’t push herself. At least to my knowledge.”

“Well at least we know we don’t have to take her to the hospital.” Rarity said as she walked over to the Saiyan and stared at her. Mostly her clothes. “She needs a decent pair of clothes. I mean really. Her clothes look like something that came from a science fiction book or something….though I do like the bunny-like ribbon on her head. It does match her hair color well.”

“So what do we do with the alien?” Rainbow Dash asked as everyone looked at each other for a moment before looking at Sunset.

“Why is everyone looking at me?”

“Well, you did call us over here because you found the reason behind the sudden earthquake.” Applejack said as she tilted her hat upwards a bit. “We kinda figured you had a plan for something like this.”

“What? Have a plan for when someone crashes into the ground out of nowhere? I have plans for what happens when some person tries to use magic for evil purposes. Not this!” Sunset told them.

“Hey, no need to get all snippy with us. We were just wondering about it.”

“Well, right now, we still need to wait for it to wake up before we can think about anything like that…” Sunset reminded her friend.

“Which might be a problem seeing how we have school in the next hour or two.” Pinkie Pie said as she pointed over at the clock on Sunset’s wall across from them. “Hmmmmmm. Maybe one of us can stay with her just in case she wakes up?”

“And who’s going to do that?”

“Maybe Sunset should stay. We could just say that she had gotten sick or something?”

“You think they’ll believe that after what she did to the entire school...Um. No offense Sunset.” Rainbow Dash said as Sunset rolled her eyes with a sigh.

“None taken.”

“Then I suggest we do the next best thing to settle who will stay.” Pinkie Pie said before quickly placing a finger on her nose. “Nose goes!”

“Wait, what?” Sunset was confused as to what Pinkie said as she took notice of everyone placing a finger to their nose before suddenly realizing what was going on. “....Dammit.”

“Sorry, Sunset. Looks like you’re going to have to stay with the alien.” Rainbow Dash said as Sunset huffed in annoyance before taking a seat on the floor.

“I thought I told you that...Oh, forget it. Can you at least tell Principal Celestia about this if she asks where I am or something?”

“We’ll be sure to do that the moment we get to school.” Rarity said before heading off into Sunset’s kitchen. “But before we do that, let’s get something to eat. Do you mind if I use your kitchen to make us something, Sunset?”

“Sure, go ahead.” She replied. “I went grocery shopping two days ago, so help yourself.”

“Perfect.” Rarity said before grabbing an apron from off the hook in the kitchen as she prepares to make breakfast for them. “Hope you all like homemade french toast~!”

“You sure it’s wise to let Rarity cook breakfast?” Rainbow Dash asked in a low tone of voice. “What if she burns it up like her sister Sweetie Belle during home ED… I’m still wondering how the hell can you burn juice?”

“Hey, ah don’t see you stepping up to the plate and offering to make anything,” Applejack responded in the same tone as Rainbow. “All ah remember is that the last time y'all said ya knew how to cook, Scootaloo came in and asked ya how long you cook rice for in the microwave.”

“Hey if you have me cook meat-related stuff I can tell you...stuff like that is not my strong suit. Why did you think I passed that class with a B+?”

“B-.” AJ corrected. “B+ was for Geometry.”

“Whatever, just don’t blame me if Sunset’s house smells like burnt food.”

“You know I can hear you two talk right?” Sunset said, deadpanning at Rainbow Dash. “And I trust Rarity with the cooking.” It was around the time that the three of them were talking that Rarity had just finished getting everything that she needed set up for french toast and was beginning to make it. The scent lingered through the air as those who were in the living room could smell it. But it was not just Sunset and her friends that could smell the food that was being prepared. It was also the newcomer that could smell it. Something that Pinkie Pie happened to notice as she bent over to look at her.

“Wakey wake~!”

“Pinkie, who are you talking to?” Fluttershy asked.

“Our new friend, silly billy!” Pinkie Pie said happily. Belle’s nose twitches from the smell of french toast being made as she quickly shoots up from her seat causing Pinkie Pie to back off away from her. The Saiyan sniffed the air for a second floating off into the kitchen.

“D…..Did she just float off into the kitchen?” Applejack asked. “I’m not the only one that saw that right?”

“Y-yeah, I did too…” Sunset said, before realizing something. “Wait… wasn’t Rarity in the kitchen?”

“Yeah she is….oh crap.” Rainbow Dash said before hearing a scream coming from the kitchen along with the sound of someone getting hit with something metal.

“OW! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR!?”

“I DON’T KNOW WHO OR WHAT YOU ARE, BUT YOU ARE NOT STEALING OUR BREAKFAST, YOU ALIEN FIEND!!!” They heard Rarity shout, just as Sunset realized that she was holding a frying pan as a weapon.

“EXCUSE ME!? WHO ARE YOU CALLING A FIEND YOU FRYING PAN-HITTING JERK!” Belle yelled as she rubbed her head from the pain. “Geez, I didn’t think a human would hit so damn hard. You could’ve given me a concussion or a broken skull...not like I haven’t had one of those in a while.”

“...... You’re telling me that this is the one who crashed right in front of your apartment, Sunset?” Rainbow asked.

“....I think so….I wasn’t expecting this to happen to be honest.” Sunset said before she noticed the Saiyan looking at them. “Um, are you okay?”

“Oh no, I’m perfectly fine,” Belle said sarcastically before pulling off her glasses to polish them before putting them back on. “Whoa, that’s odd. Humans aren’t normally different colors other than the normal white or dark skin.”

“Says the girl with the monkey tail. What do we call you, Wukong?” Pinkie said while still sounding positive. Though, the part about ‘humans’ made everyone think a little as they looked back at Sunset. Since they knew that she… wasn’t entirely human-like how they were.

“I don’t know who this Wukong is. But that’s not who I am.” The Saiyan said before rubbing her head again. “Matter of fact, who are you all and where am I? This doesn’t look like Conton City by the looks of how this kitchen is set up.”

“The heck is Conton City? The closest city to here is Downtown Canterlot,” Rainbow spoke up as she looked at Belle. “More to the point though. Who exactly are you?”

“Hey, I asked you first.”

“And I asked you second. Now talk, before I get Rarity to hit you with a frying pan again.” She said before motioning to Rarity glaring at her with the frying pan in hand. Belle raised her hand at the frying pan before blasting it out of her hand lightly without hurting her. “What the-? She’s got magic now?!”

“First of all, my name is Belle. Second, that’s not magic. It’s ki energy that I just used to knock the frying pan out of your friend’s hand.” The Saiyan said before snorting in amusement. “Now mind telling me who you six are seeing how I answered your question...even though you threaten me with a little girl that can knock a person out with that frying pan of hers?”

At first, there was silence. But then, one of them spoke up. That being Sunset Shimmer. “Well, to answer your question, my name is Sunset Shimmer. These are my…friends, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, and Rarity. I'm sorry about how they reacted. Things have been rather tense this morning.”

“Okay, I guess I can forgive your friend for hitting me. I take it you’re the one that found me knocked out somewhere?”

“More like in a five-foot-deep crater in front of my house…” Sunset replied. “And that crash landing caused an earthquake that the entire town felt. Not to mention the fact that I had to lie to the police so that they didn't detain me or you for questioning.”

“I doubt they would be able to contain me for long. But then again I don’t want my ears falling off by getting lectured by The Supreme Kai of Time for causing trouble.”

“Who’s-” Pinkie Pie was going to continue speaking, but that was when she looked at the clock and realized something. “Wowy Zowy! We’re going to be late, girls! Remember Sunset… Nose goes!”

“Ugh…” Sunset groaned, just as all of her friends rushed out the door. Leaving Sunset with a puzzled Saiyan as the door slammed shut once her friends were out. “So… who’s this Supreme Kai you’re talking about?”

“Um….okay. W-Well the Supreme Kai of Time is a Kai that watches over time itself to make sure history stays unaltered. We, the time patrollers are sent to different timelines in case there’s something or someone that wants to alter the timeline. She’s pretty much my boss...and my parole officer to some degree…”

“Wow…That’s a new one…” Sunset replied. “And should I assume that you aren’t human? Because I’m still seeing that tail of yours and there’s no way that’s an attachment you would find at a costume store.”

“I’m a Saiyan.”

“... Again, that’s a new one,” Sunset told her. “And just when I thought that there were a lot of strange species where I come from.”

“Care to explain what you mean by that?”

“I’m not from this world. You could say that this world is a parallel world to the one I once called home,” Sunset explained to her. “And where I was from, there were Griffons, pegasi, minotaurs, ponies, unicorns, and even Alicorns that can raise the sun and moon. I was a unicorn until…well...things happened and I came here. Why else do you think my friends know about magic?”

“......Huh….This is something I wasn’t expecting. Give me a second, I gotta call HQ.” Belle said as she pressed a button on her communicator in her ear. “Hello? Supreme Kai of Time, Old Kai. Can you hear me?” She asked as she winced from the sound of loud static coming from it as she quickly pulled it out. “Crap.”

“Hmm. Do you think it was broken from when you landed or just interference?” Sunset asked.

“Not because of the landing or interference. Damn thing got somewhat fried by that energy bomb that might have sent me flying here.” Belle said before pressing the emergency distress signal. “Hope this distress signal can reach them from whatever universe I’m in.”

“Hmm… did you remember when I said that this world is a parallel world compared to the original one, right?” Sunset asked only for Belle to nod to her question.

“Yeah, what about it?”

“Would it be possible that they would have a better chance of reaching you in the original world instead of a parallel version?” She now asked.

“Maybe….give me about a month or two to see if my distress signal can reach out to the people in Conton City. If nothing happens, then we’ll go with your option of going to the other world for assistance.” Sunset herself let out a deep sigh as she looked back at her, before saying the only thing that came to her mind.

“So… you’re asking if you can be my roommate for the next two months?”

“Um, if that’s a problem I could just live in the spare home that I bring with me inside one of the capsules I have… speaking of.” Belle began to search into her pockets for the case that she kept the capsules in. “Where are they?”

It was around then that Sunset realized something as she facepalmed herself. “Aw crap… Applejack told Pinkie Pie to leave those alone, but she must’ve taken them with her…” She groaned, before saying something else. “I was going to say that I can let you stay and help you with your situation, as long as you don’t cause any trouble or let anyone see your tail. Rather not have them thinking that you work at a maid’s cafe.”

“....What’s a maid’s cafe? And what’s wrong with people seeing my tail? I’ll have you know we Saiyans take great pride in our tails that we would never hide the way we look… then again we do have pride with certain things.”

“That’s not the point… As far as I know, no one else here in this world is like you… There are no other Saiyans here,” Sunset said, trying to get her to understand. “I just don’t want you to get apprehended. The town’s already on edge as it is for...”

“For what?” Belle asked as she raised an eyebrow. It took a little while for Sunset to try and wrap her head around what she just said and she wished that she didn’t say anything. However, there was no way she could just tell Belle to forget it.

“I did something that was...very stupid. You see, I originally wanted revenge on my teacher, Princess Celestia…So, I went back home, stole an artifact of great power, brought it here, and on the day I used it…it turned me into a demon. I was not in my right mind, but instead of getting destroyed or anything like that, I was given a second chance. It’s been a few months since then and I want to show everyone that I’m not a monster like they saw me as… And I’m worried that if something happens to you, something will happen to me too.”

“You’re pushing it kid… but for the sake of this drama stuff that’s going on with you, I’ll see what I can do about hiding my tail. But I make no promises.” Belle said before letting out an annoyed sigh as she adjusted her glasses. Sunset let out a sigh of relief before smiling

“Thank you. I appreciate it.” She said, going to the kitchen to get herself some water, before thinking of a question to ask. “So Belle…Can you tell me how you got here?”

“Well normally, when I do the whole time patrol thing. I would usually have a partner or two with me for assistance. But seeing how other time anomalies were going off left and right. I was forced to deal with the problem alone….big mistake on the Kai of Time’s fault because the one causing the problem was Broly, the Legendary Super Saiyan.” Belle answered as she winced in pain from saying his name.

“Um, okay. If I'm being honest. I'm at a total loss for the most part...would it be too much to have you explain how your world works?"

"I'll sum it up as best as I can...but in return, I require food...like a lot of food."
