Author's Note

Quick reminder, This is my first story ever. So, please keep this in mind, I'm not a good writer. But hope to make this a good story for everyone to enjoy.
So with that out of mind, Enjoy the story!:twilightsheepish:

Chapter 1: The Discovery!

Chapter 1: Pilot

Twilight’s POV

I always thought to myself, ‘is there anything up there, like any life up there. Are they friendly or are they hostile?’ I was broken out of thought when Princess Luna walked up to me and asked me what was on my mind.

“ oh um, Princess Luna, have you ever wondered if there was life out there?” I responded with a bit of hesitation. Princess Luna thought about that question for about a minute, then looked up to the beautiful night sky.

“That’s what I ask myself most of the time when I’m out here. Maybe there friendly, but they could also be hostile.” Luna pauses for a second then continued, “ I guess we’ll never know till we go up there or they come to us.” Then Luna gave me a smile, I couldn’t help but smile back. After that, we both look at the night sky the rest of the night.

Narrator POV

In the vastness of space, a small ship is making its way back to its original planet from a mission. Two Saiyans occupy it, as one is sleeping, and the other is flying it back. The sleeping Saiyan wakes up to his partner calling out his name.

Third POV

"Bardock... Bardock!". The Saiyan opens his eyes to see a control panel. Then he looks to his right and see's his partner, Leek.

"What is it?" Bardock responds as he gets up and crosses his arms over his chest, making him look tough.

"We almost arrived at Planet Vegeta, feels good to be home huh?" Leek says looking to Planet Vegeta. "Yeah, I guess," Bardock says not giving a care in the world.

"What do you think Frieza needs us for, It must be important if he needs all of us Saiyans back at Planet Vegeta." Leek pauses for a second, then continues." Maybe the bastard has some big plan for us." "Watch your mouth, your scouter is on!" Bardock interrupts, looking up to Planet Vegeta.

"Th... That's right!" Leek gasps, quickly taking off his scouter. As it's in his hand, he puts it in a container under the control panels. When he finishes, he spots his comrades.

"Hey look at that! Seems like the party may have started without us." Leek says in a happy tone to see his comrades ship's and pods, making their way back to there home planet. While Bardock looks up, he seems a bit surprised that Frieza's ship hasn't landed yet. "Frieza's already here?" Bardock responds, Leek turns left looking surprised as well. Their ship starts to fly under Frieza's to avoid colliding.

"I wonder why he's still up here when he could've landed already."Bardock pauses for a second, then continues," Something about this is strange, it doesn't make any sense."Bardock looks up once more," If he wanted to talk to his men, he could've just used the radio and saved everyone a whole lot of time."Bardock stopping for a moment before speaking again, while Leek looks to his left looking a bit surprised.

"And if he's got new weapons for us, there's no reason we need to pick them up together." Bardock finishes as the ship enters the planet's atmosphere, creating a flaming fireball around them. "I've got a bad feeling about this, none of it makes any sense."

(Fast Forwarding!)

Bardock's POV

I walked around town, feeling worried. I thought to myself, "All the pieces fit together. One, he called all of us Saiyans to arrive back here. Two, he hasn't landed his commanding ship or talked to us on the radio of what he wanted. Finally, he told his men to ask us Saiyans about the Super Saiyan Legend."

I was broken out of thought when a fellow Saiyan flying above carrying a container said: "Welcome back Bardock!" I couldn't help by smiling back responding with "You too!" then he flew off at a slow pace.

I started to walk back home, it took me a bit, but I'm not complaining. I was at the foot of my doorstep and saw my wife, Gine cutting some meat and another female Saiyan helping her work. I smiled, "What's wrong? No proper welcoming, Gine?"

Gine was surprised and stopped her work and turned to me with a beautiful smile. "Bardock, you're here!" as she puts down the knife she was using.

"Things sure are crazy around town today," I said, walking into the house and Gine walked towards me to hug me.

"Yeah. It's not that often everyone comes back." She finishes hugging me and backs up to take off her gloves.

After that, I couldn't help but ask, "How's Kakarot doing, is he still in the nursing capsule?"

"He is. It's just about time to let him out, though." Gine then points to a doorway, "You should see him. Come on!" She then runs to the doorway, telling me to follow.

Thrid POV

Gine and Bardock move to the room housing the nursing capsule that helps Kakarot grow. As Bardock looks at Kakarot, he couldn't help but think 'Should I send Kakarot away to keep him from Frieza's plan or should we all escape together' Bardock was broken out of thought when Gine asked him what's on his mind.

(Stop at 3:18)

"Gine, we're going to another planet," Bardock said in a stern tone. Gine turned suddenly to Bardock with a surprised expression.

"What, why would we do that Bardock?" She desperately tried to get an answer out of Bardock.

"Because of Frieza, I think he's afraid of the legendary Super Saiyan appearing one day. He wants to exterminate us Saiyans so then the legend will never come to be."

"What, the Super Saiyan. But, that's just a children's fairy tale Bardock!" Gine forced into anger.

"I know that, but I still think he's scared of the legend. I have a feeling, that death is on its way."

There was a moment of silence before Bardock broke it, "Plus, I'm getting tired of fighting and always wanted to raise a family on another planet. Away from all of this." there was a long silence in the room.

"Are you sure about this Bardock, it's unlike you to be caring for your family. So what's gotten into you?" Gine says in a worried tone.

"I don't know, maybe it's because I'm constantly fighting, destroying. And I'd like to save something for once. Especially someone who was judged to be a lower-class warrior. Like my Kakarot!" Bardock looks to Gine with a warm smile and askes the big question. "Gine, will you come with me to help raise our son!"

Gine didn't know what to say, but after some time " Yes, let's do this Bardock!" Gine said with enthusiasm.

Narrator POV

After that, they waited till night to steal two pods. One for Gine and Kakarot, while the other one was for Bardock. Once they got into the pods, they agreed to go to a planet called eques. Little did they, they'd be going on an adventure of a lifetime.

Next Time On Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!

Chapter 2: Having Second Thoughts

Chapter 2: Having Second Thoughts

Narrator POV

Last time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z! Bardock got the feeling that Frieza was going to destroy Planet Vegeta! With the approval of Gine. Bardock, Gine, and Kakarot left Planet Vegeta a day before it got destroyed. While Twilight thinks to herself if life exists out in space. Is it friendly or is it hostile, soon she will find out herself? Now on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!

Twilight's POV

CRASH!
As soon as I heard that big explosion, I fell off my bed and ran downstairs to check if Spike was ok, "Spike... Spike, where are you!?" I patiently waited for Spike to call out. "I'M OVER HERE!" Spike responded.

I ran to the direction of Spike's voice and found Spike covered in a pile of books. I quickly got to work and pulled the books on top of him off. Luckily he wasn't injured, "Spike, are you ok?" I asked worriedly. "Don't worry Twilight, I'm alright. Just a bit startled that's all." Spiked paused for a minute, "Any idea what that noise was?"

"I'm afraid I don't know Spike, it sounded like a..." Then all of a sudden, I heard another explosion. It was so violent, it shook the entire town and shattered all the windows. I regained my balance and ran out the door to see two large mushroom clouds in the distance close to the everfree forest. "Spike, we should go investigate that explosion" I explained

"But would we, why can't we leave this to the royal guards for once?" Spike complained. I gave Spike a natural face, "Its probably just a meteor, why would we bother the royal guards over something we can handle. Now come on, let's go see what this is!" Spike groaned, but I pick him up with my magic and put him on my back and ran to the explosion.

Bardock's POV

I was awoken to the noise of the pod's computer telling me, we have arrived on the planet and the other pod made it. "Welp, it's time to see if this planet's people are friendly or not." I thought to myself as I pressed the button to open the pod's door. I heard some voices outside, but they were muffled due to the hydraulic door hissing as it opened. What I saw was something from a fairy tale. Ponies, PONIES EVERYWHERE! *Internal Screaming*.

"What's the matter Bardock?" Gine called out.

"Gine, I'm starting to have a second thought on coming to this planet Gine," I responded. 'I knew the data on this planet said it helps lots of happy magic. But I didn't expect it to have colorful ponies!'.

Gine got out of the pod holding Kakarot in her arm and asked me, "Bardock, what do you mean? Oh."

Third POV

Bardock and Gine lookup out of the crater and see's a group of colorful ponies staring back at them. "um... hi?" Gine said hesitantly. Then all the ponies ran away, terrified. "Wait come back, we aren't going to hurt you!" Gine yelled back, not wanting her family to be rejected on the first contact.

Gine heard a voice running up to them yelling, “What are you ponies running from?” The voice reaches the crater, the pony had a purple lavender coat, a dark purple mane with a couple of light purple streaks running through it. It was also holding a purple dragon on its back with lime green spikes running from its head to its tale. The purple mare look down to the trio of Saiyans standing out of there pods, “Please don’t run away like the others, we just need some help.” Gine cried out in desperation!

Bardock through all of this doesn’t say a thing, he’s just astonished that they landed on a world that’s a Childrens fairy tale. “ Hey, you!” Bardock yelled out and pointing to the purple mare and dragon. “Me?” The purple mare pointed to herself. “Yes you! Who are you and is this Planet Eques?” Bardock yelled out, easily looking frustrated.

“Bardock! Would you calm down, I’m just as surprised as you.” Gine yells back, Bardock just scoffs and looks away.

“Sorry for my husband’s behavior, he can get a bit... angry when he can’t figure things out.” Gine apologize to the purple mare. “It’s alright, I understand the situation your in... I think?” The purple mare said. “Oh how rude of me, my name is Twilight Sparkle and this is my assistant Spike.” Twilight pointed to herself and spike waved back.

“My name is Gine, this is my son Kakarot. Also you met my husband Bardock.” Gine explains while Bardock look away. Gine laughs nervously and turns to look at Twilight. “So Twilight, is this Planet Eques?

“Why yes, and you landed in Equestria, close to Ponyville.” Twilight paused for a second then thought of a question that the Saiyans were waiting for. “Also why are you here?”

“Because our Planet got destroyed!” Bardock blurted out still looking away crossing his arms together. This surprised Twilight and Spike, this caused Kakarot to cry. Gine look down and tried to calm Kakarot down, but wouldn’t work.

“I know who could calm down any filly, follow me!” Twilight said with enthusiasm and walk away from the crater. Gine and Bardock just look at each other and just shrug. With an agreement, they slowly walk out of the crater and followed the mare and dragon.

(Fast forwarding!)

Bardock’s POV

We all arrived at a small cottage while Kakarot is still crying. Twilight was knocking on the door calling for a pony named Fluttershy. Shortly after, a yellow pegasus with a pink curly mane opened the door and smiled back. “Hello Twilight, what can I do for you?”

“Twilight here told us that you could calm down our son Kakarot... can you do that for us?” I replied nicely, which was a first. Fluttershy look to me, then look to my son, which was crying out ponds of tears.

“Sure, no problem!” Fluttershy replied cheerfully then walk over to Kakarot and sang a soothing song. It calmed Kakarot down so much, it put him to sleep. I was surprised at this, even Gine doesn’t have a soothing voice to calm Kakarot down!

“Thank you so much!” Gine thanked cheerfully. This made Fluttershy blush a little, “No problem.” Fluttershy then invited us in to chat for a bit.

Third POV

The Saiyans sat across of Fluttershy and Twilight. “So, Is it ok if I ask some questions?” Twilight asks as she teleports in a peace of paper and quill. “I don’t see the problem with it...” Gine says as she lays down Kakarot down on another couch and puts a blanket over him.

“Sweet! Well the first question is, what are you?” Twilight questions. Bardock was the first to answer, “We were a proud warrior race know as the Saiyans.”

Narrator POV

Bardock just reveled the name of there race known as The Saiyans. How will Twilight and Fluttershy react when they find out the nature of The Saiyans. Find out next time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!!

Chapter 3: History pt:1

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Chapter 4: History pt:2

Chapter 4: History pt:2

Last time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z, Bardock started to tell the history of the Saiyans. How they were so brutal they were the civil war on planet Sadala, to the war with the Tuffles. Then out of nowhere, a pony by the name of Applejack arrives at the scene. What will happen next, let’s find out Now!

(Que Intro Music)

(Stop at 3:12, if you want to)

“Who and what are these... um... things Twilight?” Applejack questioned, as she walked through the front door.

“Oh Applejack you won’t believe this!” Twilight said eagerly, jumping off the couch. She walked over to Applejack, leaning towards her left ear. “ Their aliens AJ!”

Applejack was stunned to hear this, she thought at first glance, they were monkeys with clothes. She was broken out of thought when the female Saiyan got off the couch and walks over to her.

“ Hello... Applejack was it?” Gine questions, Applejack nods happily. “Well, my name is Gine. This is my husband Bardock and my son Kakarot.” Gine says, pointing to Bardock and Kakarot.

“So... um, where are you from?” Applejack questions. This makes Bardock and Gine look at each other, they both nod and look back to Applejack and Twilight.

“Well, we were just talking about the history of the Saiyans and how we got here... would you like to listen?” Gine happily responds and offers.

“Sure, I don’t see why not. I’m already here as it is.” Applejack responds eagerly to find out as well.

“Well, I think we should wait.” Twilight stops Applejack and Gine, “We should go grab the rest of my friends and the princess’s” Twilight suggested. Gine and Bardock look surprised when they heard the last word Twilight said.

Bardock immediately jumps off the couch and runs towards Twilight, “Wait a minute! There are two princesses, and you never told us!" Bardock says enthusiastically, this made Twilight jump back.

"I suppose I haven't told you about Princess Celestia and Princess Luna of your presence. I'll write a letter to them right now!" Twilight says, turning to spike who was taking a nap. Twilight walks over to wake up the dragon. "Hey, Spike... Spike!" Spike jolted up and look at Twilight.

"Yes Twilight," Spike said, a little drowsy from sleeping.

"Spike, take a note," Twilight says, teleporting a quill and piece of paper.

Dear Princess Celestis and Princess Luna,

The explosion you may have heard or seen. It was two space pods containing 3 aliens known as, The Saiyans. There a couple and have a son, their story is very interesting. But therein need because their planet was destroyed. I don't believe they are a threat, please respond as soon as you can.

Your Star Student,
Twilight Sparkle

Spike then rolls the paper and sends it off with his dragon breath, making it disappear. This surprised Gine, she never knew there was this much magic in this world.

A few moments later, spike burped up a scroll and catches it in his claws. Spike coughs in his hands and begins to read it.

Dear Twilight Sparkle,

Thank you for letting me know of the situation, I'm glad to hear that you don't think these Saiyans are a threat. They can come by tomorrow to meet me and my sister. Also, bring along your friends so then they can hear this story. Can't wait to meet them.

Your Beloved Teacher
Princess Celestia

After Spike finished the letter, he placed it on a table and answered an important question. "Where will they stay?"

Everyone looked at each other and Fluttershy replied, "You can stay here if you want..." Fluttershy replied.

"Are you sure Fluttershy? We don't want to bother you if it's too much." Gine responded worried, she didn't want to bother her, especially there eating habits.

"Don't worry about it, plus. I can help take care of your son Kakarot." Fluttershy said, knowing that they'll need help with it.

"Thank you so much, I don't know how we'll repay you." Gine thanked, not knowing what to say.

"There's no need, but ill need help from time to time with the animals. Maybe that's what you could do to help me." Fluttershy offered.

"Consider it done!" Gine said with gley. She was excited about how they were already being accepted by some of the locals. Little after, Twilight with Spike and Applejack left, while Fluttershy showed where the Saiyans will stay.

'This could work, I mean its small. But it could be worst." Gine thought

The Saiyans were able to get a place to stay, at Fluttershy's house. How will the meeting with the Princesses go, will go well or badly? Find out next time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!

Chapter 5: Bardock’s Dream?

Author's Note

The reason I change the name is that it sounded like Bardock was going Super Saiyan already. So I changed it to something basic.

Still, hope you enjoy!:twilightsmile:

Chapter 5: Bardock’s Dream?

Chapter 5: Bardock’s Dream?

Last time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z! While the Saiyans were telling the story of their race, a pony by the name of Applejack, met the Saiyans and was surprised to hear that they were aliens! She was welcomed by Gine and accepted it. Twilight suggested that they finish the story when they meet the princesses. Fluttershy said it was ok to stay at her place, while the Saiyans find a place to stay. What will happen next, Find Out Now!

Bardock opened his eyes to see a grassy field filled with critters and flowers. He kinda enjoyed, seeing the critters accompanying their children. But all of that changed, Bardock saw the grassy field on fire and in ruins. "What the hell is this?" Bardock then heard a very familiar laugh, the laugh he heard put chills down his spine and made his blood boil. He turned to see Frieza. But he looked different, he looked slimmer, had round purple pearls on his head, shoulders and lower chest. But the eyes were the same, red and lifeless.

"Well well well, looks like I found them before you did, monkey," Frieza said in a sarcastic tone. Bardock realized what Frieza meant, he quickly turned his head around to see ponyville in ruins, bodies everywhere. But one thing stood out, he didn't see his wife or son. Then he was kicked in the back of his head by Frieza and was sent flying towards a mountain. Bardock felt hell when he was kicked.

"BARDOCK!", "FATHER!" two voices yelled out. Bardock heard those screams and instantly knew who they were.

"GINE, KAKAROT!" Bardock yelled out, he flew as fast as he can to get to them. 'If Frieza touches one of them, I swear to god!' Sparks started to form around him. When he arrived, he saw Gine was impaled with Frieza's arm. This made Bardock's blood go past the boiling point, more static started to form. Gine's eyes were lifeless, she was beaten to death, scratches, and blood spill out where she was impaled.

"Hm... how about the boy next," Frieza said sinisterly. Then he pointed his finger at Kakarot and fired a blast at him. He lifted his hand and sent Kakarot up into the air.

Bardock realized what Frieza was going to do. "No Frieza, STOP!!" Bardock didn't want to see what Frieza was going to do.

"FATHER!" Kakarot cried out, those were Kakarot's last words before...

BOOM!

An explosion engulphed Kakarot, not leaving a single trace. Then a piece of Kakarot's armor fell in front of Bardock, this broke Bardock. Seeing the last remains of his son was in front of him. Bardock went to grab the piece of armor, but it crumbled in front of his eyes. This was the last thing he needed to see, Bardock began to tear up. "Hm... looks like your the last of your kind, finally. No more Saiyans will roam the universe while I'm still around." Frieza said sinisterly.

"Y... You Worthless, Tortlees, BASTARD!" Bardock yelled out, pulling his arms to his side, clenching his fist together. Blood started to roll out of his hands, this caught Frieza's attention. "I Will... Make You... Suffer!" Lighting starts to strike next to him, his hair starts to flair up, flickering yellow and black. Bardock looks to Frieza with a death stare, his eyes start to flicker blue and black. The ground started to shake, causing rocks to rise around him

Frieza is stunned at first but shrugs it off, think this is some trick. Frieza laughs, "Hm... looks like those monkeys meant something to you, doesn't matter anymore. They were worthless trash, just... like... you." Frieza says in a dark tone.

This was the breaking limit for Bardock, "I'LL KILL YOU WHERE YOU STAND!" Bardock yelled out before he bent down, static lightning is being created around him. Bardock rises as rocks start flying around him.

AAAAAHHHHHHHH!!

A godly yell is heard throughout Equestria, Bardock's hair turns into a golden color, spiking up. His eyes went from a dark black to a greenish-blue. Bardock looks to Frieza, which is terrified at the moment. Frieza thought Saiyans can only transform into Great Apes, unless...

"No... this cant be, you can't be a... a" Frieza couldn't finish his words because Bardock finished them.

"Frieza! I'm the Saiyan who will defeat you! I'm the one who will avenge the entire Saiyan race. I'm the one who will avenge my family." Bardock looks to Frieza with a death glare then yells, "My Name Is Bardock, and I... Am A Super Saiyan!

Bardock wakes up, sweating like crazy, 'Oh thank god, it was only a dream' Bardock thought.

"Bardock, are you ok?" Gine askes worried, Bardock looks to his right to see his wife's face. Bardock began to tear up for the first time in his life, Gine saw this and felt weight against her. She finds Bardock, sobbing as he lost something, "Bardock, whats wrong. Don't tell me you thought what you saw was real." Gine says in a soothing voice.

"I'm sorry! Thank god it was only a dream!" Bardock cries out, Gine just hugs Bardock. Calming him down to the point for him to explain.

"Now tell me, what was your dream," Gine asked, worried. She was wondering if Bardock is having nightmares about Planet Vegeta exploding.

Bardock sighed before speaking, "I'll explain it later, we should check on Kakarot." Bardock said, not wanting to answer the question.

The Dream Realm

*Before Bardock's went Super Saiyan in his dream*

Princess Luna was walking around in the dream realm, waiting for the cry of a somepony, yelling out for help. Luna sat down, smiling, "I'm surprised that there are no nightmares at all tonight, I was expecting something bad to hap..." Luna was caught off when she heard a thing call out a name she's never heard before."

"BARDOCK!", "FATHER!" Luna rushed to find the floating orb that contained the nightmare. When she found the orb, she looked in and what she saw. It terrified her, she saw a thing she's never seen before being impaled, by a lizard-like creature. The lizard being looked to a small kid, lifting him in the air. "NO, STOP IT, FRIEZA!!!" Luna looked to her left to see another creature that looks like the female one. Luna heard a cry out for help to her right, looking, she sees an explosion engulf the child.

This turned Luna's stomach upside down, 'How can a creature be that cruel?!?' Luna was broken out of thought when she saw the male creature known as Bardock, clenching his fist and looking down in anger.

"Y... YOU WORTHLESS, TORTLEES, BASTARD!!!" Bardock yelled out. Luna has never heard that language in a long time. "I'LL KILL YOU WHERE YOU STAND!" Bardock said before roaring. That roar made Luna hold her hooves over her ears.

Luna looks up to Bardock, she seems stunned to see the hair change of him. His hair stood up in a glowing golden color, while his eyes were a greenish-blue color. "Frieza! I'm the Saiyan who will defeat you. I'm the one who will avenge my race. I'm the one who will avenge my family. MY NAME IS BARDOCK! And I... AM A SUPER SAIYAN!! Bardock yelled out."

Luna was in aw when the dream ended there, 'Who was the being, how was he able to do that? I have so many questions.' Luna thought for a minute, 'Wait a minute, the being's name was Bardock, he's the one we're meeting tomorrow. I'll have to ask him tomorrow about that dream' Luna thought. After that, Luna realized it was morning and exited the dream realm. "I have to tell my sister about this!" Luna said, excited. Then she ran into the castle.

Bardock had a dream of Frieza killing everyone he cared about, turning him into a Super Saiyan. How will the others react to this when Bardock tells everyone. How will the meeting with Princess Celestia and Princess Luna go? Find out next time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!!

Chapter 6: Meeting The Princesses

Chapter 6: Meeting The Princesses

Last time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z! Bardock was in a dream, it was all calm and peaceful. Until Frieza came and killed everyone except Bardock. Bardock had to watch his loved ones get slaughtered. Then, something sparked in Bardock, making him go into the legendary form Frieza feared. The Legendary Super Saiyan! As fast as it came, it all disappeared when Bardock woke up. What will happen next? Let's Find Out Now!

Fluttershy's Cottage

Bardock and Gine walked downstairs to see all of Fluttershy's animals waiting patiently for food, while Kakarot is still sleeping on the couch. Some of the smaller animals were cuddling with Kakarot, this made Gine smile, 'Wow, I think the animals might get along with Kakarot.'

"You couple are sure up early," Fluttershy called out to Bardock and Gine. Bardock turns to see Fluttershy having trouble with the plates of food. Surprisingly, Bardock went to go help Fluttershy.

"Here, let me help you with those," Bardock said, starting to pick up multiple dishes at once.

"Oh... um y... you don't need to help me..." Fluttershy said, beginning to blush a little, but knew how to hide it.

"Don't worry about it Fluttershy, I insist," Bardock replied, walking to give some of the animals the food. This surprised Gine a lot.

'Why is Bardock acting so strange, yesterday. He didn't care, he even considered going to another planet. So what's gotten into him?' Gine thought. "Hey, Bardock..." Gine asked.

"Yes, dear?" Bardock replied, placing down the last plate of food to the critters.

"Mind if we have a chat? Gine asked, motioning Bardock back to the spare room.

"Sure," Bardock said, walking to the flight of stairs. 'I hope Gine isn't going to ask me about the dream, I'm not ready to tell her yet, just need more time.' Bardock thought. Gine followed behind Bardock. They made it to the spare room, Gine closed the door behind them.

Gine looks to Bardock with a stern look. "Bardock, what's up with you? And don't tell me nothing's wrong!" Gine narrowed her eyes at Bardock, who was sweating now!

"I... um... I can explain..." Bardock said nervously, sweating even more. Bardock knew what Gine was trying to do, she was trying to use her feistiness to get Bardock to tell her what was going on, it worked all the time. It brought back memories of her being in his squad years ago before she left and became a butcher. "I'm just not ready to tell the dream yet, it's something I can't bear to see again," Bardock said quickly.

"That doesn't answer my question, your never this friendly. So why are you being so friendly? I mean, I like it. But it's so uncharacteristic of you!" Gine explained

"I said I'll explain when I'm ready!" Bardock said, storming out of the room. 'I can't tell them yet, I'll explain the dream once we get to the castle and meet the princesses.' Bardock thought, walking down the stairs.

(Fast Forwarding, to the point we're waiting for the carriages to arrive.)

Bardock, Gine, Kakarot, and Fluttershy waited out in front of Fluttershy's house. Waiting for the carriages to arrive. "So, will Twilight and her other friends be in the carriages with us or will they be there already?" Gine asked, wondering.

"They'll be in the other carriage, where ill be. You'll be talking with someone else." Fluttershy explained.

"Wait, who will..." Gine was cut off when she heard multiple wings flapping, Gine squinted to see two carriages flying towards them. The carriages landed in front of the group and the back one door opens.

"Hello Gine, Bardock, Kakarot, and Fluttershy," Twilight said, hopping out of the carriage. "Also, Bardock, Gine, and Kakarot. I believe somepony should introduce themselves." Right as Twilight said that the front carriages opened. A tall pony stepped out the carriage. She had a white coat, lavender color eyes, a purple, green and blue striped mane. One thing stood out about her mane, it flowed, the same with the tail. And another thing stood out, she had wings and horns. This surprised the Saiyans.

"Well, hello there Saiyans." The pony said, in a royal voice.

Bardock leaned to Gine, "I hope she isn't like King Vegeta... Oof" Gine elbowed Bardock in the stomach, "Fair enough" Bardock responded, clenching his stomach.

Another pony stepped out of the carriage, this time. She was small than the other one. She had a dark purple coat, Light blue eyes, and a flowing dark blue mane. "So are these the ones we're here to see big sis?" She asked.

"Yes, we are," Bardock replied, looking at them, with a smile. Again, this surprises Gine.

"Are you the one named Bardock, if you are, I must speak at you at once?" The dark alicorn said.

"The talk will be for later, we should probably introduce ourselves, sis," The tall one said. "I'm Princess Celestia, and I guess you've met my sister, Princess Luna," Princess Celestia said.

"Well, my name is Bardock, this is my wife Gine, and our son Kakarot. It's an honor to meet you." Bardock said.

"We will be heading to Canterlot soon, would you like to talk about the Saiyans here or at Canterlot?" Princess Celestia said.

"Let's do it at Canterlot, so then everyone or everypony is there," Bardock said, confused about there way of English language.

"Well then, lets head there now." Princess Luna replied. Motioning the Saiyans to follow them to the front carriage.

"Yes, ma'am!" Kakarot said, this surprised Bardock and Gine.

"No way... Kakarot said his first set of words!!" Gine said proudly. Bardock couldn't say anything, this surprised him the most. "I'm so proud of you Kakarot!" Gine said, hugging Kakarot.

"Come on Gine, we should get in the carriage. You can praise Kakarot later." Bardock said, stepping into the carriage. Then Gine picked up Kakarot and followed suit.

"We'll see you at the castle," Gine said waving to Twilight and Fluttershy. Princess Celestia and Luna got in the carriage shortly after. The carriage door closed and shortly, the carriage took off towards the castle.

The trio of Saiyans met the Princess and now on their way to Canterlot. How will the meeting go, will it go according to plan or will it end badly? Find out next time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!

Chapter 7: Bardock Confesses? (Edited)

Something has gone wrong. We don't seem to have an archived copy of that chapter.

Chapter 8: The Meeting

Chapter 8: The Meeting!

Last time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z! When the Saiyans arrived in Canterlot, 3 new ponies emerged from the castle doors. There know as Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie. Shortly after introductions, Luna calls Bardock over to talk something important. This lead Bardock to confess to her and everyone about the dream of Bardock becoming the legendary Super Saiyan!. But the meet is about to begin, let's find out now!

As the hug between the Saiyans ended, Bardock waited for everypony's reaction. They all stood there with shocked expressions, for most of them, it felt like hours. But Twilight broke the silence, "How could anypony be that cruel?"

"How'd you do it?" Rainbow Dash questioned.

"Huh?" Bardock looks up to Rainbow with a confused look.

"I mean how'd you change into that golden hair transformation?" Rainbow explained, "It looked so cool and bright! Also, that speech you gave to that evil lizard, that was amazing. Also can yo..." Rainbow was cut off when Applejack put her hoof in front of Rainbow's muzzle and glared at her.

"How could you be talking about that when he had to witness that dream again!?" Applejack was furious, but Bardock put his hand up, signaling Applejack that it was ok.

"It's alright Applejack, I'm betting you have the same question on what that transformation was how I achieved it." Bardock looked at Applejack for a moment.

"Yr' not wrong partner, just a little jumpy at the moment." Applejack says sheepishly. Everypony looks at Bardock, waiting for the explanation, but a loud rumbling noise echoed in the dining hall. The princesses go on high alert until they heard laughter, coming from the Saiyans.

"Sorry about that, I think we're hungry," Gine gave a sheepish smile while rubbing the back of her head. Everypony just looked at them, then the princesses started to giggle.

"Looks like you are, lunch will be ready in a bit. In the meantime, should we finally start the meeting?" Princess Celestia questioned. The Saiyans look at each other, thinking about it. Finally, they all nodded at Celestia, "Great, let's all go and have a seat at the table.

Eventually, they all sat down at the dining table. The Saiyans sat across from the ponies, getting comfortable. There was a long silence, but Bardock broke it.

"So, what terms do we have to agree to and what jobs can we do?" said Bardock, crossing his arms and raising an eyebrow.

"Well for starters, you cannot harm anypony for any reason," explained Celestia, looking at the Saiyans, "For jobs, well... what do you two specialize in?" questioned Celestia.

"Bardock is super strong, so probably a job for heavy lifting," Gine explained, which everyone except Celestia and Luna, gave wide eyes and looking at Bardock.

"How strong are you?" Twilight questioned, in return, Bardock gave a small chuckle.

"I'd say I could probably lift an entire mountain with 75% of my power!." Bardock smirked as everypony gave a wide-eyed expression.

"Y-you can be serious!" said Applejack, trying to see if he's lying.

"Nope, I'm that strong, but full power is when situations get messy." Explained Bardock.

"Well, with that in mind. You could work for the royal guard if you want or Applejack can give you a job at sweet apple acres." Luna explains, making Bardock think.

'If I work with the Royal Gaurd, I can protect the Princesses and Equestria. But I don't like standing around, maybe ill work on the apple farm. It'll keep me in shape and give me something to do', with Bardock thinking of a decision, Celestia turns to Gine.

"What do you specialize in Gine?" Celestia questions.

"Well, back on our homeworld, I use to be in his squad. But eventually, I left the group to become a butcher." Gine explains, but the last word sends shivers down everypony's spines. Gine notices this and calms down everypony, "Don't worry, I wasn't only a butcher, but a fantastic chef." Gine explains.

"Well, we can give you the Royal Guard position like Bardock, or you can go get a job at SugarCube corner is run by the Cake's." Celestia offers, also sending Gine in deep thought.

"I'll work at Sweet Apple Acres, need to stay in shape anyway." Bardock answers. Celestia and Luna look at each other, then nodding.

"And I'll work at SugarCube Corner, but one thing is on our mind," explains Gine.

"And what that might be Gine?" questions Luna, Gine looks to her and explains.

"Where will our son Kakarot do? He was born to be a warrior, so would homeschooling or sending him to a school be a wise choice?" Gine questioning. This made Celestia put a hoof to her chin, while Luna goes into deep thought.

"Well... let's send him to the school first, if it goes badly, we can homeschool him," Celestia explains, hoping this is the best choice.

Lunch soon came in carts of food, little did the ponies know. Saiyans have a huge appetite when the plates were set down. Everypony started to eat until they saw the Saiyans eating their food at such a high pace. They even started to ask for more, these left everypony mouths drop, even the Princesses were surprised.

"Um... do you Saiayns usually eat this much?" Applejack questioned.

"Oh yea," Gine finishes a mouthful of food before continuing, "Since we Saiyans fight so much, we have to have a lot of calories." After the explanation, everypony just went back to eating. After 30 minutes of waiting for the Saiyans to finish, Bardock finished and went to answer Rainbow's question from earlier.

"You still want to know how I went Super Saiyan in my dream Rainbow?" This caught Rainbow off guard.

"I mean, I was just excited earlier when you showed us your dream, you don't need to answer it," Rainbow explains, feeling like a jerk for answering the question after the dream.

"Don't worry Rainbowdash, it's alright." Bardock takes a breather before explaining, while everypony gets comfortable. "When I heard the screams of my Gine and Kakarot, my blood started to boil... I felt the rage building up inside of me. I didn't notice at first, but sparks start to form around me. When I arrive at where Frieza kicked me in the back. What I saw was the most dreadful thing I've seen." everyone already knows what happened to Gine in that dream.

"I almost snapped at the sight of Gine being impaled by Frieza's arm, but I managed to keep that cool until... un..." Bardock closed his eyes, trying to hold back the tears. "Until Frieza turned to Kakarot, lifting him in the air and... and..." Bardock couldn't hold back the tears, but he managed to stop. Everypony was saddened by how Bardock his hurting himself by telling this story.

"Exploded, a... a piece of his armor fell in front of me and crumbled to dust in front of my eyes. But Frieza relished the moment, his sinister laugh is still imprinted in my mind. That's when it happened, I finally snapped. My power was skyrocketing with my rage, then." Bardock paused to see some of them trying to hold back the tears, but one was sobbing, it was Fluttershy. Holding onto Rainbow Dash, she also wrapped a hoof around Fluttershy's neck.

"My hair spiked up, turning into a golden color. While my eyes went into a cyan-greenish color, my aura raged around me. The sound me turning into a Super Saiyan sounded like all the turrets in Frieza's army went off." Bardock looked down and sighed. But then felt weight against push against him, he saw the Mane 6 giving him a big hug. Rainbow Dash was the first to speak up.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't want you to live through that again, not a third time." The Mane 6 all nodded and let go of Bardock to catch his breath.

"It's alright girls, but I had to, Rainbow would've bugged me eventually to tell her how I did it anyway." Bardock gave a small chuckle when Rainbow Dash rubbed the back of her head, smiling sheepishly.

Gine was surprised yet again on how Bardock is behaving, 'he would've said no to the question earlier, why was he acting like this.' Gine thought, it was broken when Kakarot tugged on her leg. "What is it darling?"

"Are we going to stay here mommy?" Kakarot wondered. Gine was surprised once again on how her son is talking at such a young age.

"Yes we are sweetie, we just need to find a house to stay in ok," Gine explained as simple as she can to Kakarot. He simply nodded happily and jumped onto Gine's shoulders. "By the way Celestia?" Celestia turned at Gine.

"Yes, what is on your mind." Celestia wondered.

"We might need a place to stay, I don't want to keep having to take resources from others," explained Gine, she was thankful that she was able to find a place to stay the night, thanks to Fluttershy. But now she wants a place to stay with her husband and son.

"Well... we can give you a house in Ponyville, and we'll provide a number of bits to keep you on your hoofs for a month," Celestia explained.

Bardock and Gine look at each other and nodded. "We'll take this offer, can you give us a week to get settled in before we go to our jobs. We're still new here..." Gine explained.

"Then it's settled, welcome to your new home in Equestria!" Luna said with joy, holding out a hoof for a hoof shake, which Bardock returned, smiling.

Outskerks of Canterlot

Two ominous beings watch the meeting happen, and saw the dream of Bardock. The two just look at each other and nod. "This could be a problem, report back to the ship. Tell them we found the last Saiyans, tell Lord Frieza!" one of them said, flying off back to there ship.

With the Saiyans, being welcomed to their new home, two of Frieza's soldiers followed them to the planet. This will cause problems later on. Will Bardock find out Frieza is on his way or will he have to watch everyone suffer at the hands of Frieza? Find out next time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!

Author's Note

Yea, Frieza will find out later in future chapters, so he won't arrive immediately. But I know some of you reading in this chapter will probably think it's too early for Frieza to find out. But it's intended, hoped you enjoyed the chapter! Catch you later!

Chapter 9: A New Enemy Appears!

Chapter 9: A New Enemy Appears!

Last time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z! Bardock had displayed his dream to the Mane 6, Princesses, and his Wife, Gine. He didn't expect to be tackled by a hug. Shortly after, they all sat down for the meeting and everything went alright. But on the outskirts of Canterlot, two beings have been watching the Saiyans. They were going to report to Frieza? What will happen next, let's find out now!

When the meeting was over, the Princesses allowed the Saiyans to stay the night, which they agreed to. As Bardock was about to fall asleep, Gine asked him a question.

"Bardock, are having more of these dreams?" This caught Bardock off guard

"Huh, what do you mean by they Gine?"

"You know, the dream of you becoming a Super Saiyan. Are you having more of those dreams?"

"No, I haven't, we've only been here about two days now. I think I'll be fine" Bardock reassured

"Just making sure, but if another one of these dreams happens, you tell me this, no more secrets between us, alright!" Gine glared at him, making sure he understands. Bardock is sweating bullets, trying not to be attacked by her.

"Alright alright, I get it. I'll tell you if I have another one," he reassured. With that, they put Kakarot to sleep in the corner of the room and went to bed. Unknown to Bardock, there will be something to surprise him tonight.

Bardock's Dream

Bardock opens his eyes to a grassy plain, but he knew this is where he became a Super Saiyan in his previous dream. But this time, he waited, but nothing happened. 'I don't think this is the same dream, but it's in the same area'. Bardock looks around, to see if he can find someone, "Hello... anyone here?"

"Father... Bardock!" A voice called out, Bardock looks behind him to see another. He had the same spikey hair like him, but he wore a red open gi with a black undershirt and had a red pole strapped to the back of him.

'Who's that, it looks like me, but the only Saiyan I know that looks like me is...', "Wait, is that you Kakarot?"

"That's my Saiyan name," Kakarot turns around to face him, "But the name given to me on Earth is Goku."

"You... you were never sent to earth, we left for Eques."

"Not in my timeline, I was sent to earth so then I wouldn't be killed on planet Vegeta."

"But how are you talking to me now and why now?"

"I'm here in this timeline when I was told there was a distortion. So I investigated and found you alive with me and mother."

"But why is there a distortion, was it the choice to go here that caused it?"

"Yes, I would change it so then there won't be a distortion, but seeing you and mom happy here with all of these ponies, it made me think." Goku walks up to him and puts a hand on Bardocks shoulder, "I want to know if you want the timeline to stay the way it is now, or return it to the original one?"

Bardock didn't know what to do, he could stay here and have a wonderful life, but then have the timeline changed. Or he can fix the distortion and go back and get killed by Frieza. "I want to stay here, I want to have a second chance at a new life."

Goku just looked to him with a serious expression, but it changed into a cheeky-happy one. "I was kinda expecting that, I would like to meet you in person one day, I never got to talk to you or mother before."

"I'd like that." as Bardock finished, Goku just looked at him and waved as he disappeared. Bardock went back to walk around the grassy plain, then a flash of light appeared behind him.

"Are you alright?" a familiar voice call's out. He turns his head to see Luna there looking worried.

"It's alright Luna, I was talking with my son."

"Wait, your child was in your dream."

"I didn't explain it much did I..."

Bardock then goes on how his choice to go here with his family caused a distortion in the timeline and his son from the original timeline came to ask him if he wanted to stay here or go back to the original. Luna was lost for words, "I never knew time travel was possible!" Luna blurts out.

"I'm just as surprised as you, but I think you and I should keep this dream a secret until the time is right."

"Why?"

"He said he wanted to come back and meet us face to face. I want Gine to know later, but not now," he explains.

"I see, I'll leave you to this dream, night." Then Luna walks away and disappears into a white flash of light. Bardock just turns around to enjoy the open plain, for the rest of the dream, nothing bad happened the rest of the dream.

Bardock wakes up that morning to the familiar sight of Gine at his side. He doesn't want to wake her up, so he quietly gets out of bed and walks to the bathroom to get cleaned up. He washes his face to see something odd, in the refection of the mirror, he can see chocolate falling out of the sky. "What the..." then he hears weird noises outside of his room.

He opens the door to the royal guard acting like animals and making noises, "I have officially lost my mind." He turns to see the Mane 6 running towards them, 'They don't seem to be affected by this chaos.'

"How are you not affected?" questions Twilight.

"What do you mean, I just woke up."

"We have to go get the Elements of Harmony, the Princesses will meet us there!"

"What's going on, I just see the rest of the ponies here acting like animals and chocolate is falling out of the sky, it's like chaos is here!"

"Cause it is! Discord, The God of Chaos broke from his prison!"

Bardock knew a familiar person close to that title but brushed it off. He quickly got Gine and Kakarot up and rushed out of the door, explaining what's happening. They all rushed to where the Princesses were, waiting for them at a door.

"Where are the Elements?" Twilight was in a panic, she knew Discord from reading the story on how Celestia and Luna defeated them.

"There behind this door in a chest," Celestia explained. She then opened the door with her magic, when they walked in and got to the chest, Bardock sensed something was off. Celestia opens the chest to find nothing is in there. "Impossible!" She frantically searches the chest one more time to find nothing. "Where are the Elements?!"

"Oh don't worry, they're safe with me..." a voice said, the air in the room became heavy. There was a laughter that sounded too familiar to him.

'That laughter, it sounds like... no, it can't be!', "FRIEZA, COME OUT OF HIDING!" Bardock yells with an intent to kill, all the ponies were shaken by that yell.

"You had to bring up Frieza, he's like an ant compared to me." The voice then appears in front of Bardock, taking form. The creature looked like a science experiment gone wrong. He had multiple body parts of different animals, one hand as a bird claw and another as a lion paw. "Well hello there... Bardock."

Bardock jumped back 10ft from the creature and looked at him preparing a stance, getting ready to fight. "What do you want Discord?!"

"Me, oh I just want to have some fun after being in stone for thousands of years!" Discord snapped his fingers and made a Frieza clone appear next to him. This caught everyone off guard, then Discord directed his finger at Bardock, commanding the clone to attack him.

In less than a second, the clone launched toward Bardock, rearing back a fist to attack. Bardock had barley anytime to dodge, so he launched forward as well and both the clones and Bardocks fist hit each other, causing a massive shockwave to shake the entire castle. The clone went for a punch, but Bardock dodged under its attack and went for an uppercut in the gut. The attack connected, making the clone spit out blood and sent flying to the castle wall. Bardock prepared an energy attack, but the clone leaped from the wall, coupled its hands together over his head and brought them down on the Saiayn's warrior's head.

Bardock clenched his head in pain, then was kicked in the stomach by the clone, making him cough up spit and sent spiraling towards another wall.

"Bardock!" Everyone yelled, Gine just stood there while Kakarot was holding onto her leg.

The dust settles and Bardock is stuck in the wall, seconds later, he fell from his imprint onto the floor. He slowly gets back up and stares down the clone. 'Damn, I'd hate to admit this... I'm starting to have some trouble. How am I going to beat this clone?' Bardock wondered, then a round of ki blast flew strat at him. Gathering the strength he needed, he managed to dodge all the ki blast. Then dashes toward the clone in the blink of an eye, even Rainbow Dash was having trouble following Bardock's movements. He uppercuts the clone and sends a barrage of attacks, stunning the clone, Bardock kicks the clone through the ceiling. Flaring his ki into an aura and flys after the clone.

Celestia, Luna, and the Mane 6 are all stunned at Bardock's performance, "How is he able to move that fast!" Rainbow questioned, still stunned at his speed.

"I don't know how Rainbow, but we need to focus on Discord." Twilight explained, they all turn there head to where Discord was. But he was gone, they all feared the worse, thinking if Discord went after Bardock.

Bardock had his second dream and it was his Future Son! Now as he battles the clone, Discord is planning a horrid plan. Will Bardock be able to defeat the clone, or will he perish from the battle. Find out next time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!

Author's Note

I thought it'd be pretty cool to introduce time travel in the story, cause Bardock's choice created another timeline. And I liked Xeno Goku from Dragon Ball Heros. Also, this is my first chapter with fighting in it, so don't expect anything spectacular just yet. I'll be writing the next chapter soon! With that, catch you later!

Chapter 10: What Is This Energy?

What is this energy?!

Last time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z! Bardock had a dream of his future son, explaining how he messed up the timeline. Bardock had the choice to go back to the original but chose to stay in the one he created.

The next day, he wakes up to chaos, caused by the God of Chaos, Discord, what will happen next. Let's find out, Now!

'Good, now they won't be caught in the crossfire.' Bardock thought as they were there far enough from the castle. So he gets in front of the Frieza clone and double-ax handled him to the ground, creating a crater 10 feet across and a dust cloud.

As he waits for the clone to get up, he doesn't realize that he's being watched. Discord sits on a cloud, watching the battle, he searches for weaknesses.

Then, the clone jumps out of the crater, heading straight for Bardock. He dodges and elbows the clone across the chin. Just as Bardock was going for the finishing blow, he feels a sharp pain in his chest. He looks down to see a ki blade piercing him.

"Bardock!" everyone yells, they all rush out of the castle to get to Bardock. They see him up there, trying to gasp for air.

'Dammit, how'd I'd get so careless?!' Bardock spits out blood onto the clone, evaporating. It pulls the ki blade out of him and lets Bardock fall towards the group below.

"Bardock!" They all run to him, Gine and Kakarot crying, hoping for Bardock to stay alive for a little longer. He looks up to see his wife holding onto him, he turns his head to see some of the ponies crying. The Mane 6 were all trying to hold back tears, but the princesses walked past them and stood next to Bardock.

"He'll be fine, we can cast a healing spell on him, but not fully." The princesses explained, they all looked to them, waiting for them to cast the spell. They started the spell and Bardock was enveloped in a bright yellow aura. The wound in his chest started to close, but a scare would remain there for the rest of his life.

"Thank you, now." He said, getting up then looked at the clone, "Now, let's start round 2!" He flew up at new speeds he never had before, punching the clone in the gut, almost going through. Everyone was awestruck at Bardock's power.

"How is he even faster now, how is that even possible?!" Twilight was confused beyond belief, 'He was slower than this, but when he got healed, his powers grew!'

"Because us Saiyans can grow in power every time we get healed from a near-death experience. Bardock just used that ability, and now he has a chance," explained Gine.

"Amazing..." Luna looks to the battle happening above, Bardock is beating the crap out of the clone.

He prepares energy into his fist and punches it into the clone, flipping back in the air upwards and yells, "BURNING HEAT!" releasing the energy upon it. The blast consumes the clone and destroys it, ending the battle.

Everyone cheers for him, but it was not over yet. Out of nowhere, Discord teleports behind Bardock and kicks him to the ground, making everyone gasp. "Bardock!"

"You left your guard down, Bardock." Discord then looks to the group, ginning at them, "Can't wait to have fun with your wife." He starts to walk towards her, stopping 10 feet away. He then notices a small child hiding behind her, "Why haven't you told me about your son Bardock?"

Bardock shot up, flying at blinding speeds, making multiple sonic booms, but rainbowed color. In the blink of an eye, Bardock's fist makes contact with Discords jaw, sending him into a nearby cliff. Bardock doesn't stop there, he then continues to shoot multiple ki blasts at the draconequus, creating a large explosion.

'Damn, used up too much energy in that rush, I can't take another blow from him.' As Bardock thinks of a strategy to survive against Discord, the others run up to him. He falls to one knee, gasping for air.

"Are you alright?" Fluttershy said, rushing to his side to see if was injured. She was right, his ribs were broken, his armor was torn in places, and blood dripped from his head. Fluttershy was panicking, she turns to the others, tears forming, "If he doesn't get medical attention quickly, he'll die!"

"Princesses, can you cast another healing spell on him?" Twilight hoped they could, but they shook their heads.

"I'm afraid we can't, the last one took a lot out of us and can barely stand as it is," Celestia explained. Twilight notices Luna struggling the most.

"I believe I can help you and father." A voice says behind them, they all turn around to see a man with the same hair as Bardock.

"Wait, who are you, and why do you look like Bardock and Kakarot?" Gine questions, then hear Bardock getting up, but failing.

"Kaka... Goku, is that you?" Bardock weakly says, trying to get up again with the same result. Goku slowly hovers down to him, pulling something out of a sack.

"Yea told you I wanted to meet you and mother soon, but I see you're in a tricky situation." He pulls out a green bean and hands it to Bardock, "It's a senzu bean, it can heal all battle wounds and give your full power back."

Bardock just nods, taking the bean and eating it. As soon as he swallowed it, he felt all his wounds heal and can feel his power coming back, even stronger than ever. "Ah... Amazing!" Bardock exclaims.

Goku then stares where Discord is, still being covered by the dust cloud, "Something is off, why does this dark energy feel familiar?"

"What do you..." Bardock is cut off when the air gets heavy, the wind blowing in every direction. They all shielded there eyes, to see a dark aura surround Discord, with glowing red eyes.

"It cant be... I thought me and Vegeta got rid of the two!" Goku is shocked to see this familiar aura and eyes before. He then turns Super Saiyan, surprising Bardock and the others.

"Kakarot, you're the Legendary Super Saiyan!?" But Goku ignored Bardock, he then notices Goku's gaze

"All of you stay back, I've dealt with this problem before." Goku then flys towards Discord, ready to attack. Then Discord appears in front of him in a flash, surprising him.

"Don't underestimate me, monkey!" Discord's voice sounded distorted, but his powered grew every second. Discord then pulls a barrage of punches, every one of them connecting. With a final attack, Discord fires a magic blast at him.

"Kakarot!" Both Bardock and Gine yelled. They both raced towards the crater, but there was another flash of light. The dust settled to see Goku, different.

His pole and upper body clothing disappeared, red fur covering his arms and upper body, except for his biceps and abbs. His hair grew in size and was black again, he had a red monkey tail and yellow eyes. Everyone can feel the immense pressure coming from him, but as he spoke, his voice got deeper.

"From here on out, things are about to get ugly, prepare yourself, Discord!"

Things are kicking up a notch, Goku from the future turned into a Super Saiyan 4 to fight against Discord. Will it be enough to defeat Discord, or will he catch the upper hand and defeat Goku. Find out next time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!

Author's Note

There is a reason why I made Discord act more vicious in this arc, he was affected by another's magic wielder has taken him over. They will be revealed soon. But I hoped you enjoyed and liked the chapter.

Sorry if I'm not involving any of the other characters, I'm not used to writing them yet. Also, if you feel this story is being rushed, please let me know so then I can make adjustments. Still, hoped you enjoyed it. Catch you later!

Chapter 11: Super Saiyan 4 Goku vs Discord!

Chapter 11: Super Saiyan 4 Goku vs Discord! Part 1

Last time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z! Bardock was fighting the Frieza clone and defeated it, but Discord started to emit an unpleasant power. With it, he defeated Bardock. But Goku from the future came to the rescue and turned Super Saiyan 4! Who will win the battle, let's find out now?

Goku and Discord jumped at each other with speeds the normal human eye cant follow and started to exchanged blows with the power to destroy a valley of mountains. The shockwaves started to create hurricane-like winds and pushed everyone back, then the Princesses made a protective bubble to protect them.

Goku dodges underneath a punch and sending a sharp but brutal strike to Discord's gut, making him cough up blood. Goku then spun around and kicked Discord in the jaw, sending him towards the ground and creating a crater. Discord then flew back at Goku to continue the battle.

"I can't believe what I'm seeing, how are they making those energy attacks, how are they flying without wings, I have so many questions!?" Twilight yelled.

"Calm down sugar cube', I'm sure after this battle you'll get all the answers you need," said Applejack, as she watched the battle. Meanwhile, Bardock was watching the battle unfold, but he didn't want to just stand there.

'Dammit, if I only had that power, I could help out my son.' He thought, crossing his arms. But he had enough, he flared his aura and flew towards the battle.

"No Bardock, don't do it, let Goku fight Discord!" Gine shouted, she flew after him, but was engulfed in magic, she turned around to see Celestia using her magic to bring Gine back, "No, let me go help my husband!"

"It's too dangerous, let them handle it!" Luna explains, only to get a sadden look from Gine. She then turns to see the multiple shockwaves all around the battlefield. 'I hope Goku can do it, we're all counting on him.

Bardock arrived at the battlefield, then saw Goku get punched in the gut. He saw the perfect chance to get a punch on Discord, so he powered his burning heat attack. He flew at blinding speed, hitting Discord in the jaw, "You're the one that got caught off guard!", flipping backwards, charging a fire like attack then screamed, "BURNING HEAT!" He released the attack on him, sending Discord towards a mountain.

Goku then notices his father came and pulled a sneak attack while Discord was off guard "Why are you here Dad, you can't handle him."

"Then I'll fight to my last breath!" Bardock then launched himself at Discord for he did the same. They both crashed for a bit till Discord kicked him in the legs, leaving him open. As Discord was going to end him, Goku came and punched him in the jaw.

"Then let's do it together!" Goku said, smirking.

With that, Goku and Bardock both flew at Discord with great speed, confusing him. Bardock appeared behind him, he turned to strike Bardock down but was struck in the chest by Goku, then they flew towards Discord and launched a flurry of punches towards his chest, making him cough up a lot of blood. Discord managed to get out of the way and land a blow on Bardock's face but didn't move away in time for Goku's fist to make contact on his face.

"You alright father?" Goku asked, hoping he wasn't done yet.

"I'm alright, I just don't have the power to keep up with him," He then looks down at the ground and punches it, "If I were only stronger!"

"Can you go Super Saiyan?"

"I can't, but I had a dream of becoming one, after witnessing..." Bardock was about to finish, but Goku interrupted.

"After witnessing someone close to you getting murdered... right in front of you, cause that's how I became one." Goku then explained in short detail of how he became one.

"So raw anger of someone you love die is enough?"

"Yes, you can also do it by imagining it, I'll stall Discord. Good luck" Then Goku looked where he punched Discord earlier, flaring his aura and flew towards the crater. Bardock just stood there watching Discord and Goku fight it out.

'Think of someone close to you getting killed or seriously injured' He then closed his eyes and began thinking of the dream 2 days ago. His rage started to grow, his hair flaring up, but not turning yellow. 'FATHER... BARDOCK!!' he thought it was his mind yelling at him, but then heard another yell but much louder now. "Bardock, get out if the way, MOVE!", he then felt a sharp pain through his chest, 'It feels like I was stabbed through my body!'. He opened his eyes in horror, a thin pink beam going right through his chest. "The... H... Hell?!" He heard Discord laugh, as he shot more of those beams, but they weren't directed for him, but the group.

The beams kept hammering the bubble until it broke, reveling the Princesses, Mane 6, and Gine and Kakarot.

"It's like I opened a birthday present, only I hate what's inside. But I can have a little fun with the Saiyan women." Discord started to laugh like a maniac.

"Don't think about hurting them!" Goku yells, launching towards him. But was kicked in the gut, sending him into a forest. "Sit down monkey! I'll play with you in a bit, it's time to have some fun with Bardock's dream!" He starts to change his body, taking the form of Final Form Frieza. "Ha ha ha, ah It feels like a suit I havent put on in a long time."

Discord looks to Bardock, who is having a hard time standing, blood slowly leaving the hole in his chest. "I hope you don't mind letting me having some fun with your wife and child." He then flys towards the group, holding a hand out, shaping it to look like a knife. When he was going to stab Gine, Bardock flew past the speed of sound, shoving Gine out of the way!

"NO, BARDOCK!"

Things are starting to look bad for our heroes, will Bardock sacrifice himself to save his family, or will he deflect Discord's attack? Find out next time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!

Chapter 12: The Fall Of Bardock

Chapter 12: The Fall Of Bardock?

Last time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z! Bardock joined the fight with Discord, but he couldn't keep up. Goku told him to focus on the pain of losing someone close to you. But Bardock was struck in the chest by Discord's beam. He has taken the form of Frieza and charged after the group, but Bardock shoved Gine out of the way. What will happen next? Let's find out, Now!

"NO, BARDOCK!"

Bardock then felt a sharp pain where his heart was, he knew it would end like this when he pushed Gine out of the way. 'I wouldn't have enough time anyway to move out of the way, Goodbye everyone... I love you all.' Discord then kicked Bardock away into a boulder.

"DAMN YOU DISCORD!!" Goku yelled, his rage fueling his power. He went faster then he's gone before, punching Discord in the face, then sending a barrage of ki blasts. "I'LL MAKE YOU SUFFER!" He then flew through the explosion, sending a barrage of attacks. Finally kicks him away and charges a new technique he made not too long ago. "SUPER KAMEHAMEHA TIMES 10!!"

He releases and red beam with blue and yellow lightning surrounding the attack. Discord is hit by it and a nuclear-like blast engulfs Discord. The last thing Goku heard were his screams, he then flys to where Bardock is lying down with his head on Gine's leg with Kakarot crying onto his chest.

Goku goes for another senzu bean, but the patch isn't on his waist. 'Shit, the patch must've fallen off me in my rage.', "Please tell me there's a way we can save him!"

"I'm sorry, but we used most of our magic to heal him earlier, if we use to much magic, we could die," Luna explains, tears slowly falling down her cheek.

"Ka... Kakar... Kakarot, it's... alright." Bardock weakly looks to Gine, tears start rolling down his face, "I'm fine... with this... I want to... finally, rest easy... knowing that you're all... safe..." He looks to the group, he's holding onto his last breath, trying to say his last words. He holds Gine's hand, "I love you... all"

Bardock closes his eyes, knowing everyone will be alright, then he stopped. Gine then notices Bardock's grip lessened, then falls out of her hands. "No... no... NO!!"

Fluttershy starts sobbing onto Rainbow Dash's with her hugging her, “I can’t believe it...” Rainbow looked away.

Pinkie's mane falls from it being messed up to a flat mane, tears slowly rolling down her cheek.

Celestia was holding Luna in a tight hug. “He sacrificed himself to save us...” Luna sobbed.

Applejack just looked down, taking off her hat and holding it across her chest, tears on the brink. “Rest well friend...”

Twilight and Rarity couldn't look, they didn't want to see her dead friend like this. But something snapped in Goku, "I'm going to make that psychopath suffer!"

Bardock wakes up in a white void, 'Where am I, there's nothing here.' "Hello... anyone here?" He didn't hear a response for a long time. To him, it felt like hours, just standing there. He started to walk around with no sense of direction. "Is this Hell?"

"I'm afraid not, you're not even dead my friend," a voice says.

"Who's there?!" Bardock yells out, waiting for the voice to show it's self.

"You... or should I say, you're future self."

"What?" Bardock was going to question what he meant, but the voice took shape. Bardock was shocked to see, himself, as a Super Saiyan!

"We should have a talk..."

"How is this even possible, how am I talking with my future self?"

"You aren't, you're imagining what you'll look like in the future, but you need to wake up, your wife needs you, your... Friends need you."

"But I can't go back down there, I'll be killed..." Bardock said, clenching his fist.

"Then use the anger from your dream and go Super Saiyan!"

"I tried, but it didn't work, Discord won't give me a chance to do it again."

Future Bardock walks towards him and places his hand on his shoulder, "You have the power in you, you just need motivation. Now, try to go Super Saiyan!

"Alright..." Bardock said, closing his eyes and clenching his fist and bringing his arms to his side. 'I have to protect them, I have to protect my son, I have to protect Gine from Discord!" Then it happened.

The mane 6’s cutie marks started to flash, confusing them. “What’s this?” Twilight asked.

“I don’t know...” Applejack responds. Then the Elements of Harmony appear on them. Then they shoot a rainbow beam towards Bardock, engulfing him. It goes on for about a minute, then stops.

“What did you girls do?” Goku asks.

“We don’t know darlin’,” Rarity responds.

Gine started to feel a heartbeat, "Wait, I can hear his heartbeat!" the whole group looked at her. But, then they felt the earth shake. Gine saw Bardock's chest wound heal up right in front of her eyes.

"I have to protect them..." Bardock said quietly, almost a whisper.

"What?" Applejack questioned. Then, sparks started to fly around Bardock, his hair flaring up. Bardock opened his eyes to see Discord in a crater, he got up, then started to walk towards it.

"No Bardock, don't go and fight him!" Gine then runs in front of Bardock, trying to get him to stop.

"Get out of my way...”

"No, I can’t lose you again!” Gine cry’s out.

“I said, GET OUT OF MY WAY!” Bardock shouts, he shoves Gine back to the group and flys to Discord.

“What’s gotten into him?” Rainbow questions.

"Don't know, but I have to go after him, he's going to get himself killed!" Goku then flares his aura and chases after Bardock. 'If he's going Super Saiyan, we may have a chance.'

Bardock lands where Discord lies, he's covered in cuts, bruises, and gashes of blood. "What a pity..." Bardock says in a dark tone, "I was looking towards to beating the crap out of you..."

Discord looks at Bardock, shocked, "How are you still alive?!"

"Don't know... but I don't care." Bardock then launches forward and pulls a double-ax handle onto Discord's head, slamming him deeper into the crater.

"Father!" Goku yells out.

"Don't get in my way Goku, I'm the one who gets to finish him." Bardock was about to go into the hole he created. But Goku grabbed his arm and tugged it back.

"No you aren't, you aren't strong enough, let me handle it."

"I said... LET ME HANDLE IT!" Bardock lets out a powerful scream, pushing Goku back, "HE THREATEN TO KILL MY FAMILY... FOR THAT, I'LL END HIM!" Bardock then rushes into the crater with his hair flashing a golden color with his eyes turning cyan.

'He's out of control, I have to stop him!' Goku then rushes after Bardock, hoping he doesn't become a problem.

Things are starting to heat up and Bardock is out of control! Will Goku be able to stop Bardock's rampage, or will he fall against Bardock. Find out next time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!

Chapter 13: Transformation At Last!

Chapter 13: Transfromation At Last!

Last time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z, Bardock was stabbed in the heart when protecting Gine, but he woke in a white void, seeing his future self! His future self encouraged him to protect his family. The Elements of Harmony broke away from Discord's magical grasp and appears on the Mane 6. They shoot a beam at Bardock, healing his chest wound, but Bardock was different, he was more aggressive. But his hair and eyes were changing as well. What will happen next? Let's find out, Now!

"AAAAHHHHHHH!" Bardock screamed, he caught up with Discord and launched a barraged of punches and kicks. "You threaten to kill my family... I WON'T FORGIVE YOU FOR THAT!" He then powers up an energy blast and releases it at Discord, exploding on impact. Bardock looked like he was going Super Saiyan, his hair and eyes were still black, but his aura turned from a bright white to a shining golden color.

'How is this even possible?! I should be able to crush this foe, I'm using the Elements of Harmony to boost my power, but I'm losing from a low-class monkey?!' Discord then looked for the Elements to ask for more power, but was shocked to not find them. "This is impossible, the Elements of Harmony should be here!"

"I don't give two shits about where the Elements of Harmony are, all I care about now is killing your clown ass!" Bardock screams, his aura growing twice it's size than before. He pushed Discord harder and harder through the crater, then started sending a barrage of attacks at the spirit of chaos. Meanwhile, Goku was trying to catch up, but couldn't keep track of Bardock.

'I don't understand, how does Bardock have this much power, he's only a False Super Saiyan and he's managing to give Discord a run for his money.' Goku thought, he then decided to watch instead of interfering. Bardock kept hammering down the chaos spirit, punch after punch, kick after kick, he would not give a chance for Discord to recover.

But Discord had enough, he managed to move out of the way before getting smacked in the face. He flew straight out of the crater past the speed of sound. "Get back here you coward!" the furious Saiyan yelled, flying to him at Mach 5! His hair started to change color, but wouldn't stay the same. "Don't think you're getting away from me bastard!"

"You'll all kneel before me!" Discord yelled, generating a large energy ball of destruction, slowly growing in size, "Not even you can survive this, now DIE!" the spirit of chaos throws the attack at the Saiyan, flying at incredible speeds.

"This is..." Bardock generates a blue energy attack in his right palm, generating more power than the destructive ball. "THE END!" He launches the energy beam at the attack, growing in size as it made contact. Bardock began to struggle as his attack was being pushed back, 'Dammit, this can't end like this, I made a promise to them!'

Flashback

Planet Vegeta

Bardock, Gine, and Kakarot were waiting to steal 2 space pods, but something was troubling the female Saiyan. "Bardock, what happens if we didn't make it, what will happen to you if I and Kakarot didn't make it?" she questioned.

"What are you talking about, I'll protect you from whatever hazards are on the world." the Warrior explained.

"No, I mean what if I and Kakarot never made it to the planet."

"Gine, the Frieza forces Scouters won't be able to sense our power once we left there range, but..." Bardock looks to his mate with a kind-hearted smile, "if trouble follows, I'll do everything in my power to protect you and Kakarot."

"Promise?"

"I promise with my life, I love you Gine."

Flashback end

"And I must keep that promise, I HAVE TO PROTECT THEM!" there was a blinding yellow flash of light exiting from the warrior, shaking the entire planet, rocks flew and broke from the ground.

"What is this?" Discord questioned, but his attack was starting to get pushed back, slowly getting closer to the spirit.

"I WILL DEFEAT YOU... FULL POWER!" Bardock screamed, putting more power into the attack, but the two attacks detonated under the pressure. The smoke died down, revealing the Saiyan warrior... different. His spikey hair stood up in a golden color, his coal dark eyes became a bright cyan color filled with furry, his aura turned from a bright white to a shimmering golden light.

Away from the battle, the group watched in aw as Bardock transformed, "Could it be?" Twilight questioned.

"Yes Rarity, he did it," Luna questioned, they can all feel the pressure emitting from the warrior, hurricane winds blew away entire forests, bio-electricity formed around the Saiyan, creating a thundering noise. Shortly, Goku landed next to Gine.

"I can't believe it, he's done it, he became the Legendary Super Saiyan." Gine

"Prepare yourself Discord, cause your going to feel like hell after what im going to do to you!" The warrior fly's at speeds no one could keep track of, not even Rainbow Dash could keep up. Bardock reappears behind the spirit, spinning around and kicking him in the head. Discord tried to block the oncoming attacks, but the Saiyan kept launching heavy punchings. Bardock was filled with rage, like a bomb thats about to go off.

"Damn you Saiyan... DAMN YOU!" Discord yelled, but more of the dark energy seeped into him, expanding his aura and his eye glowing even brighter. "I'll snuff you out... I'll kill everyone here... I'll even consider destroying this planet!" The sprit laughed maliciously, it sounded distorted, like there were two voices. "The ultimate battle will start... now."

"So be it." They both get into fighting stances, preparing the final battle.

Bardock has transformed into the Legendary Super Saiyan and Discord got another powerup, the end of the battle is near. Who will win the fight, find out next time on Dragon Ball Equestrian Z!
