Trunks In Equestriaby LordSteeveChaptersChaper 1 - Trunks, the Presser of Wrong ButtonsChapter 2 - A Lone Saiyan in a Different WorldChapter 3 - The EnemyChaper 1 - Trunks, the Presser of Wrong ButtonsChapter 1 - Trunks, the Presser of Wrong Buttons "Promise you won't tell them Goku, or I might not be born!" "Hey, not a problem." Trunks took a step back from Goku as he realized it was time for him to go back to his time, "Well look, I better be off. My mom's worried sick about me. She needs to know that everything went okay." "Yeah, please tell her that I send my love," Goku then tosses the capsule that contains the medicine for his upcoming heart virus into the air momentarily before catching it in his hand again, "And thanks for this, you're great!" Trunks turned around, "Hey, you've helped me in a lot of ways, I should be thanking you." "So is this goodbye?" "For now, I'll be back in 3 years time." Goku nods his head, "Okay, 3 years time." "See ya then," With that, Trunks sets into the sky and flies off to a place that cannot be seen by Goku's friends and pulls out the capsule that contained his time machine. He pressed the top and tossed it to the ground. The capsule explodes into large poof of smoke. The smoke quickly clears to reveal the large time machine that his mother had made for him. He opens the lid and hops in. After he finishes the engine check up to make sure nothing has malfunctioned, he closes the lid and punches in a time 20 years in the future. The machine hums to life as it lifts off the ground and into the air. As he lifts into the air, he sees the Z warriors and gives them all a wave goodbye. He flies a little higher into the air and suddenly vanishes from view as he is sent forward in time. Trunks has seen this view before but still cannot get over how fascinating it looks, the colors are flying by at amazing speeds creating an awesome and vibrant display of lights. Trunks almost felt like getting out and studying it, but that would most likely have very negative consequences. Trunks lied his head back and waited for the machine to stop at his time period so her can tell her mother the good news. But something was slightly disturbing him, a small buzzing noise. He looked around in the time machine to see what the cause of this annoying sound was. He looked down at the dashboard and saw a small fly. Trunks figured the fly must have flown in while he was checking on the engine. He reared his hand back and swatted at the fly. The fly immediately reacted and flew off the dashboard and began to fly all around Trunks' head. The fly had just become about twenty percent more aggravating and Trunks was starting to get annoyed. He tried swatting it again but still for some reason, he could not hit the small flying bug. "I can become a Super Saiyan, defeat Frieza, King Cold, and all of their men. And yet I can't swat a single fly," Trunks muttered under his breath. The fly landed on the dashboard again, this time Trunks was determined to beat the fly, he reared his hand back and swung it forward. Again the fly had won, but this time, unfortunately, it was on a button with the words "Release" on it. It took a few moments for Trunks' brain to register what button he just pushed, but before he could fully realize it, the glass dome around the time machine began to open up. "Uhhh...." Was the only thing Trunks could get out of his mouth as he watched his time machine open up and revealing Trunks to what was going on outside of the time machine. Trunks was engulfed in white and rainbows at the same time as him and his time machine's molecular structure were disassembled and cast out into the colored void. Rainbow Dash knew how important this was, she could literally feel it in her bones how important this was. But she knew she couldn't last much longer, not even somepony like her could could last this long. "Y'all ready tah give up?" "N-never!" "Really? Ah can see yah startin' tah sweat." Rainbow Dash couldn't hold on much longer, she knew she was beaten. *BLINK* "NOO!" Rainbow Dash had lost the staring contest. "Ah knew y'all couldn't beat me in a starin' contest, Dash," Bragged her orange cowpony friend, Applejack. "Oh yeah, well I say you cheated!" Rainbow returned. "How can yah cheat at a starin' con-" Applejack was then cut off as a small booming noise and a small shake came from way outside. "What was that?" Asked the purple book loving mare, Twilight Sparkle. "Ah dunno." "It sounded like it came from the Everfree Forest." Twilight supposed. Sometimes, Twilight amazes even herself with her knowledge. Rainbow turned to her friends, "Do you think we should check it out?" Applejack chuckles a little, "Oh Rainbow, always the one who wants tah get to the action first." "Yeah, you got a problem with that, cowpony?" Rainbow says right in Applejack's face while slightly hovering in mid-air. Applejack then pushes her head forward and butts heads with Rainbow, "Not necessarily. In fact, Ah love a good challenge." Rainbow retaliates, "Oh, it's on now!" After the challenge was declared, the two mares zoom out the door faster than Twilight or Pinkie Pie could say anything about it. Twilight sighs. "There's just no stopping those two, is there?" Twilight then giggles a little, "Well, we may as well catch up to them, if we even can." Pinkie Pie suddenly bursts out, "I bet you 3 bits that that noise came from something in a purple jacket!" Twilight couldn't think of any logical answer to Pinkie's random outburst, "Uh... wha-?" However, it was a little too late for questions, as Pinkie has already bounced out of the room. With another sigh, Twilight quickly trots through the doorway as well, hoping to catch up to her friends. "Why is everything so dark...? A-Am I dead? What a way to die, 'I tried to kill a fly in my time machine and I accidentally hit the 'open hatch' button.' Wait... it's getting brighter... Okay now it's really bright. TOO BRI-" A teenage sized figure jolts up in the Everfree Forest, scaring off some birds nearby. This figure is the Super Saiyan teenager, son of Prince Vegeta himself, Trunks Briefs. Who somehow found himself stuck in the middle of the Everfree Forest. "Where am I?" Trunks says while observing his surroundings. All that was around him were trees, trees, and... more trees. Trunks was dead center in a small clearing in a dense forest of green. "Is this Otherworld? Am I dead?" Trunks decides to test his theory with the simplest of methods: A good pinch to the shoulder. "Ow!" His theory is quickly dis-proven, as the Saiyan felt a sharp pain jolt through his shoulder. "Well, at least I'm not dead." Trunks then sits up. "But that still doesn't answer my other question. Where am I...?" To be continued..... Chapter 2 - A Lone Saiyan in a Different WorldChapter 2 - A Lone Saiyan in a Peaceful World "Ugh, how long do we have to wait?" Rainbow Dash groaned impatiently. Applejack took a moment to look over to her friend. "Well, we did kinda go a lil' fast for 'em, it may take 'em a while tah get here." Applejack answered. Rainbow Dash groans yet again. Suddenly, an idea popped into Rainbow's head. She looked at Applejack, "Hey Applejack, how about we go in there ourselves?" Applejack gave her a stern look. "D'y'all even know how dangerous that could be?" Applejack questioned. "Oh come on, Applejack!" Rainbow Dash hovered slightly into the air, "Do YOU even know how fun it'll be?" Applejack sighed and shook her head. "Rainbow, y'all really need tah set some limits to yourself," Applejack then looked away, "It'll get yah killed one o' these days." Rainbow Dash pouted and crossed her front hooves. "Hmph! You're starting to sound like Twilight, Aj." Rainbow Dash groaned. "It's jus' common sense, Rainbow. Maybe y'all should use it more." Applejack replied. Rainbow Dash looks into the dark, creepy forest, "Fine. But I'm going in anyway. I wanna know what that was." Rainbow Dash almost began to take off, but was pulled to the ground from her tail by Applejack. "Who-ho there, girl! Y'all ain't goin' in there without yer friends. It's way too dangerous in there." Applejack told her blue friend. Applejack smirks as Rainbow Dash descended to the ground. Rainbow Dash sighs as she speaks, "Alright Applejack, I'll wait 5 more minutes." Applejack then genuinely smiles at her friend, knowing that the sound could have been anything, even something that could hurt them. "Buzz-kill," Rainbow Dash grumbles as she crosses her hooves. Applejack whips her head toward her friend. "What was that?" Applejack says. "Nothing..." Rainbow replies. A few minutes pass by of endless and pointless boredom for Rainbow Dash, until the sound of hooves pounding against the dirt ring through the two ponies' eardrums. Twilight and Pinkie Pie show up in the distance, trotting up to the two in just a few seconds. Twilight trots up to Applejack, but before she can say anything, Pinkie bounces in between the two and bursts in, "Who won!? Won won!?" Rainbow Dash grins, and huffs out her chest, "Well, after my quick moves and lightning fast speed-" Applejack cuts Rainbow off, "Ah won." As the girls chuckle, Rainbow Dash blushes from humility. "I was getting to that..." Rainbow mutters. Applejack turns her head and speaks. "Yeah, sure yah were." After a few moments, the giggling dies down. Twilight clears her throat. "All right, that's enough fun and games for now. Now, we need to find out what caused that noise." The girls nod. "Then let's go!" The girls turn to the Everfree looming over them. As they move their hoof forward, but a sight above the trees stop them in their tracks. A small little figure bursts from the tree-line, and stops roughly 40 feet in the air, hovering in place. The ponies are absolutely speechless as they see it move around some. Right before Twilight could say anything, the figure begins to move towards the ponies. "Everypony, hide!" Twilight whispers. The ponies do just that and take cover. They all scatter into nearby bushes, and watch the figure quickly nearing them. In a moment's notice, the figure lands, though the Everfree casts a shadow on it, so the details are obscured. The figure appears to look around, first to the left, then to the right. The figure then lifts up one of his arms and scratches its head. "I could've sworn I saw something down here..." The figure says, its voice very clearly male. "I guess it was just my mind playing tricks on my." Before he can leave though, Twilight accidentally steps on a twig. Her entire body freezes like ice as the figure stops, and turns around to where Twilight is located. "Hello?" Twilight keeps her mouth shut and every limb frozen. "Is someone there?" The figure begins to move towards the brush, "Listen, I don't want to hurt you." The figure slowly closes in on Twilight, taking each step with severe caution. Twilight begins to flare her horn, about to take defensive action. The figure sees this, and steps back a bit, seeing the glow, "What the...?" The figure lifts one of his arms and grasps the hilt of a weapon sheathed on his back. *BAM* The figure is tackled by none other than the rainbow-maned pegasus, Rainbow Dash. The two roll out into the light, and the figure kicks her off, sending her a few feet away. The figure stands up and unsheathes his weapon. The two have a stare-down with each other as they wait for the other to make a move. With the being now in the light, the other three ponies leave their spot, and get a good look at what they were dealing with. The being stands tall, at about 5 feet and 6 inches, and somewhat thin with bright, tan skin. He wears dark blue pants with an orange and blue belt, as well as sporting a black tank-top under a purple jacket. In his hand, he holds a black-hilted longsword, and its orange scabbard on the being's back. His hair is a bright-ish purple, and about medium in length. This being is Trunks, the Super Saiyan. His facial expression changes from anger, to confusion, as he lays eyes upon what appears to be a bright blue pony with wings, and a rainbow colored mane. He can only stare in confusion at the pony. As Trunks looks at Rainbow Dash, Rainbow also has a look of disbelief on her face. Never before had she seen a bi-pedal creature such as this. Twilight herself is even baffled, at first thinking Trunks is just a hairless ape, but she quickly dumps the thought out of her head. Unlike the others, Pinkie could only say one thing about this moment... "YOU OWE ME 3 BITS TWILIGHT!" Pinkie exclaims as she bounces into the air with glee. To be continued..... Chapter 3 - The EnemyChapter 3 - The Enemy "Is he awake yet?" "I don't know." "Is even alive..?" "Yes. We've already established this a few hours ago." Two figures chatter back and forth between each other in the small building of Planet 4019. They stand in front of the newest creation, the "Matter Reconstruction Device". Inside of this machine, a shadow appears to be suspended in liquid. "You should know by now that I zone out a lot!" argues the taller one. "Well maybe if you'd listen a bit more you could know these things already!" responds the shorter one. These two beings were known as "Bakun" and "Suire", two loyal henchmen to the Planet Trade Organization. Bakun is the tall one, with bright yellow skin. Bakun is a good soldier, but not a smart one. Suire, on the other hand, is short, with a blue-ish green and scaly skin. Suire is the opposite of Bakun when it comes to personality, he's not a very good soldier, but he's definitely smart. Many soldiers are baffled at how much they bicker but yet they two work together so well, and how they became best friends so quickly. *BEEP* Suire looks down to the control panel, seeing the green light going off. "Ah, he's ready to come out now." Bakun turns to his friend. "What took you so long?" Bakun asks. Suire's eye twitches slightly. "It's not up to me when he's ready to come out. It's entirely up to the machine and him." Suire then looks down to the panel, "Releasing him... now." Suire announces, as he presses one of the buttons. Inside the machine, the liquid begins to drain out of it, as it slowly opens. After a moment, a creature steps out of the machine. Almost immediately, the two soldiers stand at attention, and salutes the figure. The figure is still for quite a moment, before the creature slowly looks to the two at his left. "Who are you two..?" The creature asks. Before Suire could say anything, Bakun beats him to it, "I am Bakun, and this here is Suire. We are soldiers of the POTATO." All grows silent for a moment, as the creature stares at them. Suire reaches up and bonks Bakun upside the head. "He means the PTO. The Planet Trade Organization, sir." Suire corrects. Bakun shakes his head clear from the stars floating around his head, and stands at attention again. "PTO eh?" The creature again questions. "Sir, yessir!" The two respond in unison. The creature turns his head forward to think for a moment, before turning it back to the two. "What happened? Why am I here?" Suire answers this time, "All will be explained once we get you to the rehabilitation center, sir." "No. When I ask for information, I expect to receive information on the spot. Why am I here?" The creature says loudly. "Yessir..." Suire answers. "You and your men were killed about one year ago by someone on the planet 'Earth'. Reports and gathered intel say that you were somehow sent into the star of that solar system. This theory is backed as well by the fact that the DNA sample we took was near the star." The creature looks forward, "Ah.. I remember it now... What has happened since my departure?" Suire answers again, "Well, King Cold had found Frieza near the ruins of Planet Namek, and had rebuilt him as a cyborg. They departed to planet Earth, the same one you went to, in search of a rogue Saiyan that had nearly killed Frieza. This Saiyan is presumed to the be the one that killed you. But..." "But what?" The creature asked. "But we've lost contact with their ship and their scouters months ago. They're both presumed dead, and the Organization almost fell apart." Suire answered sadly. Silence fills the air again as they all grow mute. After a few moments, the creature begins to walk forward, and out of the room. Bakun and Suire scramble to follow him. Suire speaks, "S-sir, the rehabilitation center is the other way!" The creature responds without turning back. "I'll be perfectly fine without it." It says. Suire looks up to Bakun, who then shrugs. "Yessir..." Suire says. The creature speaks again, "Where is the closest radar center?" Suire responds, "It's just down this hall and to the left, sir." The creature heads in the given directions and finds the room, it walks into it and up to a monitor. Shortly after, the two enter the room, and stand behind him. The creature begins to push buttons as the radar goes to work. A few moments pass by as the creature watches the monitor. The silence quickly goes to Suire's head, after a few minutes, and says aloud. "What are you doing sir?" Suire says. The creature remains silent. A few more moments pass by and Suire asks again, "What are you doing, sir??" Again though, no response. Suddenly, the creature rises as the machine continues to search. "So I've been wondering, you said I was killed, correct?" It asks. Suire responds, "Uh.. well.. yes, I did." "Then how am I here?" It questions again. "Well, for the past month or so, what's left of the Planet Trade Organization has been hard at work trying to find a way to bring someone back to lead us. After a while, they finally came up with a device. It's similar to our healing pods, only all you need is a bit of DNA. Once the DNA is added, it begins to reconstruct the person, which happens to be you. Sadly though, it can only do this once, because it requires a special fluid and other essentials that we ran out of building the machine." Suire explains. "Then why not bring back King Cold?" The creature asks. Suire responds, "Because King Cold was not a good ruler, all he would do is sit around and pamper Frieza all day long. He is not fit for the title of 'King'." The creature gives a simple "Hm.." as a response. *BEEP* The creature and the two henchmen look down to the monitor. The monitor shows Sector Alpha-2497 of the East Galaxy, planet 40N3. The creature points to the location, "There. There he is. I know he is. I can feel it." The creature turns and begins to walk out of the room. The two henchmen follow him into the corridor. "Bakun?" Bakun stands at attention, "Yessir?" "Have a ship ready in 5 minutes with those coordinates locked in." The creature commands. "Sir, yessir!" Bakun replies, and he begins to head off in the other direction. Suire looks up to the creature, "But sir, what are you going to do?" "Oh-ho-ho, I'll tell you what I'm going to do. I'm going to go to that planet and kill that hairless ape that calls himself a 'Super Saiyan' and avenge my family as well as myself. Then I'm going to rid that rock of all of its life and sell it off to get our-... I mean, my business up and running again." The creature says. The figure and Suire finally reach the exit to the building and step out into the light. The creature appears to be mostly purple, but with a white chest, head, and gauntlets. He also has a long tail protruding from his backside, as well as a large blue stripe on his head, and red stripes going down from his eyes. "B-but Lord-" Suire is then cut off by the creature holding up one of his hands. It speaks, "No.. no no. From this day forward, I am no longer a 'Lord'. That title has no meaning to me anymore. No, I need something more, something bigger. Something that my father apparently couldn't hold, nor did he deserve." He walks forward a bit, "From this day forward I shall be known as..." He then sneers and opens his maroon-colored eyes. "King Cooler" To be continued.....
Chaper 1 - Trunks, the Presser of Wrong ButtonsChapter 1 - Trunks, the Presser of Wrong Buttons "Promise you won't tell them Goku, or I might not be born!" "Hey, not a problem." Trunks took a step back from Goku as he realized it was time for him to go back to his time, "Well look, I better be off. My mom's worried sick about me. She needs to know that everything went okay." "Yeah, please tell her that I send my love," Goku then tosses the capsule that contains the medicine for his upcoming heart virus into the air momentarily before catching it in his hand again, "And thanks for this, you're great!" Trunks turned around, "Hey, you've helped me in a lot of ways, I should be thanking you." "So is this goodbye?" "For now, I'll be back in 3 years time." Goku nods his head, "Okay, 3 years time." "See ya then," With that, Trunks sets into the sky and flies off to a place that cannot be seen by Goku's friends and pulls out the capsule that contained his time machine. He pressed the top and tossed it to the ground. The capsule explodes into large poof of smoke. The smoke quickly clears to reveal the large time machine that his mother had made for him. He opens the lid and hops in. After he finishes the engine check up to make sure nothing has malfunctioned, he closes the lid and punches in a time 20 years in the future. The machine hums to life as it lifts off the ground and into the air. As he lifts into the air, he sees the Z warriors and gives them all a wave goodbye. He flies a little higher into the air and suddenly vanishes from view as he is sent forward in time. Trunks has seen this view before but still cannot get over how fascinating it looks, the colors are flying by at amazing speeds creating an awesome and vibrant display of lights. Trunks almost felt like getting out and studying it, but that would most likely have very negative consequences.

The fly immediately reacted and flew off the dashboard and began to fly all around Trunks' head. The fly had just become about twenty percent more aggravating and Trunks was starting to get annoyed. He tried swatting it again but still for some reason, he could not hit the small flying bug. "I can become a Super Saiyan, defeat Frieza, King Cold, and all of their men. And yet I can't swat a single fly," Trunks muttered under his breath. The fly landed on the dashboard again, this time Trunks was determined to beat the fly, he reared his hand back and swung it forward. Again the fly had won, but this time, unfortunately, it was on a button with the words "Release" on it. It took a few moments for Trunks' brain to register what button he just pushed, but before he could fully realize it, the glass dome around the time machine began to open up. "Uhhh...." Was the only thing Trunks could get out of his mouth as he watched his time machine open up and revealing Trunks to what was going on outside of the time machine. Trunks was engulfed in white and rainbows at the same time as him and his time machine's molecular structure were disassembled and cast out into the colored void. Rainbow Dash knew how important this was, she could literally feel it in her bones how important this was. But she knew she couldn't last much longer, not even somepony like her could could last this long. "Y'all ready tah give up?" "N-never!" "Really? Ah can see yah startin' tah sweat." Rainbow Dash couldn't hold on much longer, she knew she was beaten. *BLINK* "NOO!" Rainbow Dash had lost the staring contest. "Ah knew y'all couldn't beat me in a starin' contest, Dash," Bragged her orange cowpony friend, Applejack. "Oh yeah, well I say you cheated!" Rainbow returned. "How can yah cheat at a starin' con-" Applejack was then cut off as a small booming noise and a small shake came from way outside. "What was that?" Asked the purple book loving mare, Twilight Sparkle. "Ah dunno." "It sounded like it came from the Everfree Forest." Twilight supposed. Sometimes, Twilight amazes even herself with her knowledge. Rainbow turned to her friends, "Do you think we should check it out?" Applejack chuckles a little, "Oh Rainbow, always the one who wants tah get to the action first." "Yeah, you got a problem with that, cowpony?" Rainbow says right in Applejack's face while slightly hovering in mid-air. Applejack then pushes her head forward and butts heads with Rainbow, "Not necessarily. In fact, Ah love a good challenge." Rainbow retaliates, "Oh, it's on now!" After the challenge was declared, the two mares zoom out the door faster than Twilight or Pinkie Pie could say anything about it. Twilight sighs. "There's just no stopping those two, is there?" Twilight then giggles a little, "Well, we may as well catch up to them, if we even can." Pinkie Pie suddenly bursts out, "I bet you 3 bits that that noise came from something in a purple jacket!" Twilight couldn't think of any logical answer to Pinkie's random outburst, "Uh... wha-?" However, it was a little too late for questions, as Pinkie has already bounced out of the room. With another sigh, Twilight quickly trots through the doorway as well, hoping to catch up to her friends. "Why is everything so dark...? A-Am I dead? What a way to die, 'I tried to kill a fly in my time machine and I accidentally hit the 'open hatch' button.' Wait... it's getting brighter... Okay now it's really bright. TOO BRI-" A teenage sized figure jolts up in the Everfree Forest, scaring off some birds nearby. This figure is the Super Saiyan teenager, son of Prince Vegeta himself, Trunks Briefs. Who somehow found himself stuck in the middle of the Everfree Forest. "Where am I?" Trunks says while observing his surroundings. All that was around him were trees, trees, and... more trees. Trunks was dead center in a small clearing in a dense forest of green. "Is this Otherworld? Am I dead?" Trunks decides to test his theory with the simplest of methods: A good pinch to the shoulder. "Ow!" His theory is quickly dis-proven, as the Saiyan felt a sharp pain jolt through his shoulder. "Well, at least I'm not dead." Trunks then sits up. "But that still doesn't answer my other question. Where am I...?" To be continued.....
Chapter 2 - A Lone Saiyan in a Different WorldChapter 2 - A Lone Saiyan in a Peaceful World "Ugh, how long do we have to wait?" Rainbow Dash groaned impatiently. Applejack took a moment to look over to her friend. "Well, we did kinda go a lil' fast for 'em, it may take 'em a while tah get here." Applejack answered. Rainbow Dash groans yet again. Suddenly, an idea popped into Rainbow's head. She looked at Applejack, "Hey Applejack, how about we go in there ourselves?" Applejack gave her a stern look. "D'y'all even know how dangerous that could be?" Applejack questioned. "Oh come on, Applejack!" Rainbow Dash hovered slightly into the air, "Do YOU even know how fun it'll be?" Applejack sighed and shook her head. "Rainbow, y'all really need tah set some limits to yourself," Applejack then looked away, "It'll get yah killed one o' these days." Rainbow Dash pouted and crossed her front hooves. "Hmph! You're starting to sound like Twilight, Aj." Rainbow Dash groaned. "It's jus' common sense, Rainbow. Maybe y'all should use it more." Applejack replied. Rainbow Dash looks into the dark, creepy forest, "Fine. But I'm going in anyway. I wanna know what that was." Rainbow Dash almost began to take off, but was pulled to the ground from her tail by Applejack. "Who-ho there, girl! Y'all ain't goin' in there without yer friends. It's way too dangerous in there." Applejack told her blue friend. Applejack smirks as Rainbow Dash descended to the ground. Rainbow Dash sighs as she speaks, "Alright Applejack, I'll wait 5 more minutes." Applejack then genuinely smiles at her friend, knowing that the sound could have been anything, even something that could hurt them. "Buzz-kill," Rainbow Dash grumbles as she crosses her hooves. Applejack whips her head toward her friend. "What was that?" Applejack says. "Nothing..." Rainbow replies. A few minutes pass by of endless and pointless boredom for Rainbow Dash, until the sound of hooves pounding against the dirt ring through the two ponies' eardrums. Twilight and Pinkie Pie show up in the distance, trotting up to the two in just a few seconds. Twilight trots up to Applejack, but before she can say anything, Pinkie bounces in between the two and bursts in, "Who won!? Won won!?" Rainbow Dash grins, and huffs out her chest, "Well, after my quick moves and lightning fast speed-" Applejack cuts Rainbow off, "Ah won." As the girls chuckle, Rainbow Dash blushes from humility. "I was getting to that..." Rainbow mutters. Applejack turns her head and speaks. "Yeah, sure yah were." After a few moments, the giggling dies down. Twilight clears her throat. "All right, that's enough fun and games for now. Now, we need to find out what caused that noise." The girls nod. "Then let's go!" The girls turn to the Everfree looming over them. As they move their hoof forward, but a sight above the trees stop them in their tracks. A small little figure bursts from the tree-line, and stops roughly 40 feet in the air, hovering in place. The ponies are absolutely speechless as they see it move around some. Right before Twilight could say anything, the figure begins to move towards the ponies. "Everypony, hide!" Twilight whispers. The ponies do just that and take cover. They all scatter into nearby bushes, and watch the figure quickly nearing them. In a moment's notice, the figure lands, though the Everfree casts a shadow on it, so the details are obscured. The figure appears to look around, first to the left, then to the right. The figure then lifts up one of his arms and scratches its head. "I could've sworn I saw something down here..." The figure says, its voice very clearly male. "I guess it was just my mind playing tricks on my." Before he can leave though, Twilight accidentally steps on a twig. Her entire body freezes like ice as the figure stops, and turns around to where Twilight is located. "Hello?" Twilight keeps her mouth shut and every limb frozen. "Is someone there?" The figure begins to move towards the brush, "Listen, I don't want to hurt you." The figure slowly closes in on Twilight, taking each step with severe caution. Twilight begins to flare her horn, about to take defensive action. The figure sees this, and steps back a bit, seeing the glow, "What the...?" The figure lifts one of his arms and grasps the hilt of a weapon sheathed on his back. *BAM* The figure is tackled by none other than the rainbow-maned pegasus, Rainbow Dash. The two roll out into the light, and the figure kicks her off, sending her a few feet away. The figure stands up and unsheathes his weapon. The two have a stare-down with each other as they wait for the other to make a move. With the being now in the light, the other three ponies leave their spot, and get a good look at what they were dealing with. The being stands tall, at about 5 feet and 6 inches, and somewhat thin with bright, tan skin. He wears dark blue pants with an orange and blue belt, as well as sporting a black tank-top under a purple jacket. In his hand, he holds a black-hilted longsword, and its orange scabbard on the being's back. His hair is a bright-ish purple, and about medium in length. This being is Trunks, the Super Saiyan. His facial expression changes from anger, to confusion, as he lays eyes upon what appears to be a bright blue pony with wings, and a rainbow colored mane. He can only stare in confusion at the pony. As Trunks looks at Rainbow Dash, Rainbow also has a look of disbelief on her face. Never before had she seen a bi-pedal creature such as this. Twilight herself is even baffled, at first thinking Trunks is just a hairless ape, but she quickly dumps the thought out of her head. Unlike the others, Pinkie could only say one thing about this moment... "YOU OWE ME 3 BITS TWILIGHT!" Pinkie exclaims as she bounces into the air with glee. To be continued.....
Chapter 3 - The EnemyChapter 3 - The Enemy "Is he awake yet?" "I don't know." "Is even alive..?" "Yes. We've already established this a few hours ago." Two figures chatter back and forth between each other in the small building of Planet 4019. They stand in front of the newest creation, the "Matter Reconstruction Device". Inside of this machine, a shadow appears to be suspended in liquid. "You should know by now that I zone out a lot!" argues the taller one. "Well maybe if you'd listen a bit more you could know these things already!" responds the shorter one. These two beings were known as "Bakun" and "Suire", two loyal henchmen to the Planet Trade Organization. Bakun is the tall one, with bright yellow skin. Bakun is a good soldier, but not a smart one. Suire, on the other hand, is short, with a blue-ish green and scaly skin. Suire is the opposite of Bakun when it comes to personality, he's not a very good soldier, but he's definitely smart. Many soldiers are baffled at how much they bicker but yet they two work together so well, and how they became best friends so quickly. *BEEP* Suire looks down to the control panel, seeing the green light going off. "Ah, he's ready to come out now." Bakun turns to his friend. "What took you so long?" Bakun asks. Suire's eye twitches slightly. "It's not up to me when he's ready to come out. It's entirely up to the machine and him." Suire then looks down to the panel, "Releasing him... now." Suire announces, as he presses one of the buttons. Inside the machine, the liquid begins to drain out of it, as it slowly opens. After a moment, a creature steps out of the machine. Almost immediately, the two soldiers stand at attention, and salutes the figure. The figure is still for quite a moment, before the creature slowly looks to the two at his left. "Who are you two..?" The creature asks. Before Suire could say anything, Bakun beats him to it, "I am Bakun, and this here is Suire. We are soldiers of the POTATO." All grows silent for a moment, as the creature stares at them. Suire reaches up and bonks Bakun upside the head. "He means the PTO. The Planet Trade Organization, sir." Suire corrects. Bakun shakes his head clear from the stars floating around his head, and stands at attention again. "PTO eh?" The creature again questions. "Sir, yessir!" The two respond in unison. The creature turns his head forward to think for a moment, before turning it back to the two. "What happened? Why am I here?" Suire answers this time, "All will be explained once we get you to the rehabilitation center, sir." "No. When I ask for information, I expect to receive information on the spot. Why am I here?" The creature says loudly. "Yessir..." Suire answers. "You and your men were killed about one year ago by someone on the planet 'Earth'. Reports and gathered intel say that you were somehow sent into the star of that solar system. This theory is backed as well by the fact that the DNA sample we took was near the star." The creature looks forward, "Ah.. I remember it now... What has happened since my departure?" Suire answers again, "Well, King Cold had found Frieza near the ruins of Planet Namek, and had rebuilt him as a cyborg. They departed to planet Earth, the same one you went to, in search of a rogue Saiyan that had nearly killed Frieza. This Saiyan is presumed to the be the one that killed you. But..." "But what?" The creature asked. "But we've lost contact with their ship and their scouters months ago. They're both presumed dead, and the Organization almost fell apart." Suire answered sadly. Silence fills the air again as they all grow mute. After a few moments, the creature begins to walk forward, and out of the room. Bakun and Suire scramble to follow him. Suire speaks, "S-sir, the rehabilitation center is the other way!" The creature responds without turning back. "I'll be perfectly fine without it." It says. Suire looks up to Bakun, who then shrugs. "Yessir..." Suire says. The creature speaks again, "Where is the closest radar center?" Suire responds, "It's just down this hall and to the left, sir." The creature heads in the given directions and finds the room, it walks into it and up to a monitor. Shortly after, the two enter the room, and stand behind him. The creature begins to push buttons as the radar goes to work. A few moments pass by as the creature watches the monitor. The silence quickly goes to Suire's head, after a few minutes, and says aloud. "What are you doing sir?" Suire says. The creature remains silent. A few more moments pass by and Suire asks again, "What are you doing, sir??" Again though, no response. Suddenly, the creature rises as the machine continues to search. "So I've been wondering, you said I was killed, correct?" It asks. Suire responds, "Uh.. well.. yes, I did." "Then how am I here?" It questions again. "Well, for the past month or so, what's left of the Planet Trade Organization has been hard at work trying to find a way to bring someone back to lead us. After a while, they finally came up with a device. It's similar to our healing pods, only all you need is a bit of DNA. Once the DNA is added, it begins to reconstruct the person, which happens to be you. Sadly though, it can only do this once, because it requires a special fluid and other essentials that we ran out of building the machine." Suire explains. "Then why not bring back King Cold?" The creature asks. Suire responds, "Because King Cold was not a good ruler, all he would do is sit around and pamper Frieza all day long. He is not fit for the title of 'King'." The creature gives a simple "Hm.." as a response. *BEEP* The creature and the two henchmen look down to the monitor. The monitor shows Sector Alpha-2497 of the East Galaxy, planet 40N3. The creature points to the location, "There. There he is. I know he is. I can feel it." The creature turns and begins to walk out of the room. The two henchmen follow him into the corridor. "Bakun?" Bakun stands at attention, "Yessir?" "Have a ship ready in 5 minutes with those coordinates locked in." The creature commands. "Sir, yessir!" Bakun replies, and he begins to head off in the other direction. Suire looks up to the creature, "But sir, what are you going to do?" "Oh-ho-ho, I'll tell you what I'm going to do. I'm going to go to that planet and kill that hairless ape that calls himself a 'Super Saiyan' and avenge my family as well as myself. Then I'm going to rid that rock of all of its life and sell it off to get our-... I mean, my business up and running again." The creature says. The figure and Suire finally reach the exit to the building and step out into the light. The creature appears to be mostly purple, but with a white chest, head, and gauntlets. He also has a long tail protruding from his backside, as well as a large blue stripe on his head, and red stripes going down from his eyes. "B-but Lord-" Suire is then cut off by the creature holding up one of his hands. It speaks, "No.. no no. From this day forward, I am no longer a 'Lord'. That title has no meaning to me anymore. No, I need something more, something bigger. Something that my father apparently couldn't hold, nor did he deserve." He walks forward a bit, "From this day forward I shall be known as..." He then sneers and opens his maroon-colored eyes. "King Cooler" To be continued.....
