Chapter 7: The Party

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The Saiyan and Alicorn returned to Ponyville, the two of them had only been gone for a couple of hours, but there wasn't a single soul there. This confused the warrior, but the Princess knew exactly just what was going on. She smiled a bit at the speed in which her friend was able to gather everyone in Ponyville into a single place, something that she hadn't seen since she first arrived in the town. "Let's go back to the castle, I'm sure we'll find someone there," she said to get the attention of her traveling companion.

Kolard nodded and followed her to the castle. His intuition told him that there was something on the other side of the door, but he didn't know what. He took a deep breath and wound up a punch. "Wait! No! Don't punch the door!" Twilight yelled as she gripped his fist in a magical field.

"There's something on the other side of that door and I cannot be sure that it's a threat to either of us or not," the Saiyan said to justify his attempt to punch the door.

The purple Alicorn shook her head and folded her arms in front of her in annoyance, "If there was any threat within the castle. Starlight would've been able to take care of it, or at least alerted me about it," she firmly stated.

Kolard nodded and pushed open the door, the lights suddenly turned on and every pony in ponyville sprang out of nowhere and yelled out, "Surprise!"

This sent the warrior reeling back on the defensive, he wasn't sure if this was a party or an ambush, but he couldn't fire any energy blasts while Twilight continued to hold his hand in a magical grip. For some reason, it wasn't allowing him to focus his energy through his hand. Pinkie Pie appeared out of seemingly nowhere, "I wanted to throw you a surprise party as a 'Welcome to Equestria' party! Do you like it?" she asked him in her usual excited voice.

Upon hearing that it was a party, he relaxed and chuckled, "You sure surprised me," he told her as his heart started to return to its normal pace.

"There's party games and balloons and confetti and streamers and food. I noticed that you don't have teeth like us so I figured like some of the other creatures in Equestria, you eat meat, so I got you some meat so you wouldn't have to feel left out! There's several cakes, many cupcakes, and all sorts of pastries!" the pink Earth Pony excitedly explained.

Kolard could see that many ponies were chatting with each other and some of them were playing party games. There was a group of ponies competing to see who could drink the most cider. The Saiyan walked up to the table and smiled, placing his hand on the table and grabbing a mug of cider. He smiled and guzzled down the cider in one swift motion, slamming the mug back on the table with enough force to make a loud thud, but not enough to damage it. A pony with a plum coat and pink hair looked at him with orange eyes and a smile. It was as if this particular mare had found someone who could compete with her in a drinking contest. "I bet you that I can drink more than you can, I'll even be nice and let you catch up," she taunted.

The warrior took the challenge with a smirk, he grabbed a barrel of cider and hoisted it above him, much to the shock of everyone else. He pointed his finger at it and let loose a beam of energy to fire straight into the bottom, drilling a hole in it. Kolard then moved the hole over his mouth and started to drink straight from the barrel itself, horrifying the ponies at the table. The pony that challenged him to a drinking contest was astounded by this action. Nopony or creature had ever drank cider directly from the barrel and all they could do is watch the Saiyan guzzle every drop of the cider down in a mixture of horror and amazement.

Within minutes, the entire barrel had been drained dry and Kolard placed it on the ground and leaned on it as he let out a loud belch. Every pony except for Berry Punch was horrified at this, but the plum mare started to laugh as she slammed her hands on the table. "I haven't seen anyone who could beat me in a game of drink, but you just drank an entire barrel of cider as if it was nothing! You are one amazing drinking partner! Everyone give it up for Kolard!" she exclaimed.

The Saiyan would've joined in the the celebration of his ability to guzzle down gallons of liquid if it wasn't for a sudden and overwhelming need to pee. He stood up extremely quickly and started to dance in place as he tried to figure out where the restroom was. Everyone started laughing at him as he continued to try to figure things out. "Third door on the left," Twilight informed him.

Kolard took flight and rushed to the bathroom, he tried to push the door open, but noticed there was a door knob. When he tried to twist the doorknob, it was apparent that the door was locked. Someone was in the bathroom and he would be unable to use it. He started to dance in place as he tried to find some other bathroom, rushing through the castle and opening all the doors he could open. He found several more locked doors that he assumed were occupied restrooms on his journey and sighed as he started to dance in mid-air, trying not to pee on himself.

With no other option, the warrior rushed out of the castle to Ponyville to find one of the eateries there so that he could use the restroom, desperately trying to hold it as he flew. Because of his lack of familiarity with the written language of the Ponies and the symbols that they used for their eating establishments, he had no choice but to fly to every place to find out which one didn't have a locked door. After about ten minutes of searching, he finally found one and rushed in, quickly finding the bathroom and finally relieving himself.

After three minutes in the restroom, Kolard washed his hands and flew back towards the castle. Much to his surprise and delight, a pie eating contest was getting ready to start with Applejack and Rainbow Dash at the table. "Got room for one more?" he asked with a smirk.

"Ain't no one in Equestria who can eat more pie than ah can! But yer welcome to come on up here and try to beat Rainbow Dash if ya'd like!" Applejack boasted.

"Hey! I'm going to win this pie eating contest! Just you wait!" the cyan Pegasus replied in annoyance.

This made the Saiyan laugh to himself as he made his way to the table, "Settle down, ladies. After all, it's going to be me who is going to win this pie eating contest," he taunted with confidence.

The farmpony looked at the warrior as he sat down, "Well then, let's see if ya can put yer bits where yer mouth is," she stated firmly.

The ref at the contest counted down and then started the three minute timer. Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Kolard all started to eat the pies that they were given. Applejack was consuming a pie roughly every fifteen seconds, Rainbow Dash was able to eat a pie in roughly seventeen seconds. But both of them were outdone by Kolard who was eating a pie roughly every ten seconds. The onlookers watched in a mixture of amazement, disgust, and horror.

The time ended and the number of tins next to Kolard made it very apparent that there wasn't any contest. Applejack had been able to eat twelve pies. Rainbow Dash had eaten ten. But the Saiyan warrior had consumed a full eighteen pies and was still hungry for more. "Well ah'll be. Ya went and done put yer bits where yer mouth is, unlike a certain Pegasus," the farmpony stated.

"Hey! I'm still the fastest in Equestria, you know!" said Pegasus retorted.

The Saiyan wasn't paying attention, he had grabbed a nineteenth pie and was stuffing his face. Much to the surprise of no one though, he swiftly moved onto the meat that none of the ponies were eating. With his usual lack of manners and tact, he started to scarf down the meat by shoveling it into his mouth with his hands and barely chewing at all. This action horrified all of the ponies, but disgusted Rarity of all. "I know you're not a pony and all, Darling. But at least you could show some table manners!" she protested.

Her words fell on deaf ears as Pinkie got into the spirit of things by starting to shovel sweets into her mouth like Kolard was doing with the meat she had provided him. Eventually the Saiyan stopped eating like he did and looked at everyone. Their shocked stares made him a bit nervous, "Hehe, sorry about that. I'm not used to having to eat with some etiquette," he stated truthfully and nervously.

Pinkie however didn't care, she just continued shoveling sweets into her face. However, all the low-class warrior felt like doing after that massive meal was go for a walk. He wasn't really in the mood for party games or great big gatherings anymore. He left the castle as the party continued. Much to his surprise, he saw someone else hanging outside. "Not much for large gatherings, are you?" he asked calmly.

This startled the yellow Pegasus who turned to face him, "Oh, I never have been comfortable at parties. Unless Discord is there of course. We usually have tea parties, but nothing like this," she stated in her usual quiet voice.

Kolard gave her a gentle smile and folded his arms as he leaned against the outer wall of the castle, "The last time I was part of a big gathering like this, I got chased out after eating all of the food that the guests had brought. To this day, I still have no idea why they had invited a Saiyan and just left out so much good smelling and tasty food if I wasn't supposed to eat it," he started to laugh and unfolded his arms to motion as he spoke, "The groom's father was so mad at me that he ended up saying several words that I never thought I'd hear come out of his mouth. I dare not repeat them, but they were the most foul words in his language. He probably still hates me to this day, but man, that was the most fun I ever had at a party," he recalled to her.

Fluttershy wasn't happy about the fact that anyone was hated, even this being before her. "That wasn't very nice of him and it wasn't very nice of you to eat all of that food," she pointed out.

The Saiyan sighed as he looked up to the sky, he would love to be able to go back to the planet he had lived on. Sure, it had its ups and downs and he didn't always get along with the people there, but it was his home. It was where he belonged and where he wanted to return to. However, his mind flashed back to his Scouter, it had a two-way radio and a transmitter, but the range was limited to the galaxy that he was previously in, so he wasn't particularly concerned about it. He made a note to himself to ask Twilight to remove those components as she modified it, but also knew that Frieza's men would be able to find him with their Scouters and he would've put his adoptive peoples in danger.

He moved away from the wall, "Hey, Fluttershy?" he said to get the attention of the Pegasus.

The pink haired Pegasus looked at him, "Yes?"

"I'm going to go fly around to clear my head, alright? It's been a busy last few days and I need to work through things. If Pinkie asks, tell her that I enjoyed her party, but I need some alone time to sort things out," he told her half-truthfully.

"Okay!" the gentle Pegasus said with a nod and a smile.

Kolard's aura flared up and the Saiyan took off flying away from the castle in no direction in particular. He didn't want to admit to it, but he felt lonely now. While he was a Saiyan biologically, and he had the pride of a Saiyan warrior, he felt that he belonged with the people of his adoptive home planet. He pulled out a device and looked at the hologram that it produced of two humanoids with short brown hair and mono-colored eyes with a younger version of him between them. A tear ran down the warrior's face as he silently cried and landed on a tree branch to sit alone.

The warrior didn't feel like he belonged to this world, but he wouldn't be safe where he came from and he would've put his old friends in danger. At least here, he'd be safe from the Frieza Force. He placed the projector back into a pocket within his armor and then looked up to the bright blue sky, contemplating what would come next and he asked himself if he would ever get used to living here in a world full of colorful ponies.
