A new start to life!
Goku and Raditz
As Raditz charges at Goku to hit hard, Goku quickly puts his arms up to block the hit. Raditz made contact with Goku's arms, Goku was pushed a bit back as he seemed a bit worried about this new confrontation with his older brother. Raditz finally came up closer and kneed Goku in his stomach.
Goku was hit hard by Raditz's knee. Raditz took this chance to elbow Goku's head as Goku was bent over holding his stomach. “You see Kakarot you can't beat me by yourself so stop trying and let me get rid of you!’’ Raditz said as he kicked Goku back.
As Raditz smiled, he looked at his brother who was getting back up. “You're not killing me that easy,” Goku said as he stood up tall and got ready for the next attack.
Sunset
As Sunset started to see how to walk like one of these “Normal beings” she slowly started to stumble by herself. “So Cadence, Where in Celes- um where am I!’’ Sunset asked as she saw a car pass by.
“Well, you're on the outskirts of Equestrion. The city of magic and joy, or so they say,” Cadence chuckled as she sent a message on her phone. “This little town you're in is called Canterlot City, you already know that though.”
“Oh yeah of course… So who is in charge of this place?’ Sunset asked as she needed to know a bit more of this world.
“You mean the mayor? Well, the mayor was and is Mayor Mare, but now the mayor electors are up and Mayor Mare is going up against Tirek for mayorship.” Cadence explained as Sunset jumped a bit as Tirek was once the old boogie stories she was told when she was a filly.
“Hey, are you okay? You look like you just saw a ghost?” Cadence asked as she caught Sunset before falling to the ground out of shock.
“Y-Yeah I… Im good, just surprised,” Sunset said as she came back from the shock and tried to chill herself out.
“About what?” Cadence asked as she had a very confused look on her face. “I am assuming you don’t as tirek do you?”
“I am just shocked to hear that Tirek is planning to become the leader of this town,” Sunset said as she got up and looked ahead. She saw a few shopping buildings and then saw a cake store.
Outside of the cake store, she saw a group of kids, one man with white skin and tory blue hair color with a light streak on his head. He wore a letterman jacket that had football, soccer, baseball, and a few more patches that Sunset couldn’t see but she could clearly see the words Crystal Prep on the back of his jacket, he wore denim pants and had nice dress shoes.
“Hello Shining.” Cadence greeting as she seemed to get nervous at first. As Shining turned his head he responded with a “Hey!”
As they greeted each other Sunset stopped because she has no clue where this Canterlot Castle is at. As Cadence and Shining started to chat Sunset noticed the two other humans next to Shining. There was another man, a lot younger but he had blue hair and a gamboge skin tone, he wore a light blue jacket with a light red shirt that had a Lion face on it. He wore brown pants and what seemed to be running shoes. Next to this younger man was a girl. She wore glass and a hat had curly yellow hair and a Mint green skin tone. She wore a light blue denim jacket and skirt with a yellow short sleeve undershirt, dark gray leggings with white folded sleeves.
Sunset did notice all of their “Cuitemarks’’ Shinings was a shield on his lettermans jacket, the man next to Shining had his cutie mark on the back of his jacket and the cutie mark was a Shield like Shinings but with a lightning bolt in the middle, and as for the girl next to the young man. She had a magnifying glass for her cutie mark and it was placed in the middle of her shirt.
“Hi my name is Mag, Mag Nify, and this guy here to my right is Flash Sentry.” The girl introduced herself and Flash as she put her hand out for a shake. As Sunset looked at the hand in question she looked back at the two kids.
Goku and Raditz
Raditz seeing his brother getting back up and standing strong made him angry as he was getting tired of Goku's determination. Raditz pushed off the ground and flew straight toward Goku. As Goku was surprised by this move the first punch hit him right on the cheek. As Goku kept being punched all over his body he was being pushed back.
Soon Goku started to see the pattern of Raditz’s attack. He started to block some attacks and threw a few punches back at Raditz, only for Raditz to counter each attack with more punches. Goku stopped throwing punches as he saw how it would end up for him, as Goku tried to dodge and block the attacks he remembered how their first fight ended.
Goku remembered how Raditz attacks were more powerful than skillful. Raditz had been using brute force against Goku and Piccolo in the first fight. This thought gave Goku an idea. As Goku moved a kick that was going to his side away he pushed Raditz back and kicked Raditz’s knee. He saw that Raditz was getting angrier as Goku kept pushing him back.
Goku had grabbed one of his fists and forced Raditz's hand down and forced his wrist up as Raditz grunted through the pain and threw his left hand at Goku's stomach.
As Goku grabbed Raditz's arm, Goku brought Raditz closer and elbowed Raditz in the nose. “AGH! Damn!” Raditz cursed at Goku as Goku took advantage of this opening Raditz had.
Sunset
“So who is this new girl Cadence?” Shining asked as Sunset had just shaken the hand of the girl in a weird motion.
“Well, this here is Sunset Shimmer. I am guiding her to her home, She got lost.” Cadence answered as Sunset looked at the group and looked away.
Shining armor smiled as he walked over to Sunset. “Names Shining Armor heard yours is Sunset. Is Cadence treating you right or is she being a bully?” Shining asked jokingly and looked back to Cadence
“Hey, I am nice!” Cadence shouted as she puffed her cheeks out. “O-Oh yes she is really nice and helpful.” Sunset responded as she felt the strong grip in the handshake Shining gave her.
As Sunset let go she looked at Flash and Mag. As she made eye contact with Flash her heart started to pump a bit faster as she realized her face was turning red. As she quickly turned away as Flash stepped up. “So where do you live?” Flash asked.
“Oh I live at the Canterlot Castle.” Sunset replied quickly as she was trying to stay with her story since at the moment she was trying to stay calm and not say anything stupid, “Why am I freaking out?” Sunset asked in her mind.
“Oh really, well Mag here actually lives there. Isn't that right Mag” Flash said as he walked back to his friend. As Sunset looked at Mag as Sunset saw Mag having a judging look on her face.
“Oh? I don't remember seeing you.” Mag said as she crossed her arms and then seemed confused but still held that same expression.
“W-Well I just moved in! Yeah, we just moved in.” Sunset said as she started to think ahead for any ideas or things to make her story more believable. As the group went silent Mag seemed to have calmed down and smiled.
“Well, it’s nice to see a new face around.” Mag said as Sunset seemed to relax a bit more. Sunset felt like this girl could be a problem for the future but thought that she had to stick to her mission.
“Come on Mag she is lost and she seems scared too, stop making her life harder.” Flash said as he playfully punched Mag’s shoulder and she chuckles a bit and rests her head on Flash’s shoulder.
“Come on Sunset we should get you home.” Cadence started as she was getting ready to leave but Sunset stopped and looked at the group.
“Could we go later. I kinda want to stay here and chat.” Sunset said as she looked at Cadence.
Raditz and Goku
Goku started with a punch to Raditz’s chest, as Raditz was winded Goku pushed his palm of his hand up with force hitting Raditz’s chin, Goku then made a quick spin and kicked Raditz’s side with his foot.
Goku swept Raditz's legs from the ground and as Raditz’s fell Goku rolled back a bit and got into his fighting stance. “Had enough?”Goku asked as he stepped back and got in his fighting stance again.
As Raditz got up and finally at his anger limit he charged up his ki attack. “You Know what FINE! Fine by me I just want you out of my life! If you don't want to join us then you will DIE!” Raditz yelled as he charged his double Sunday
“KAME,’’ Goku shouted as his ki blast grew in his hands.
“YOU WILL DIE ALONG WITH THESE HUMANS!” Raditz yelled at Goku.
Goku only responded with a “HAME!”
“TAKE THIS!” Raditz shouted at Goku as he fired his blast.
“HA” Goku roared out as he threw his hands out and blasted his energy wave at Raditz.
As the blast collided Goku struggled to hold his ground, as for Raditz, he was being pushed back. “WHAT? IM-IMPOSSIBLE!” Raditz yelled as he struggled.
Sunset
As the group seemed to chat a bit about their schools and their lives. Sunset listened and soon noticed that Mag was keeping a close eye on her. Whenever Sunset asked a question about the world she is stuck in Mag would have written something down on her notebook.
“So If I may ask Sunset where are you from.” Shining asked as he placed all of the attention onto Sunset. As the group waited.
“W-well you see I came from um,” Sunset started as she quickly looked around and thought as she remembered that cadence mentioned a city. “I am from Equestrion City, the northside of it.” Sunset quickly responded trying to put some information to land on.
“Oh, so you're from the poor side of town. How does it feel living there?” Flash asked more curiously than rude though it sounded really rude.
“It was um, rough. We had little money coming into the house, but it was easy to entertain me. I usually went to the library.” Sunset said, trying her story out.
“Sorry to hear that.” Mag said as the hot chocolate on the table started to shake a bit.
“Um, does anyone feel that?” Flash asked as the place started to slowly shake. As the place started to shake Mrs. Cake ran out and shouted, “Do not panic people! Please walkout in an orderly fashion!”
The customers quickly got up and ran out as Sunset was pushed on the ground by the panicking people. As Sunset panicked she felt a hand grab her arm, “Come on! We need to move!” Flash shouted as he pulled sunset to her feet and they ran out. As the two got outside they saw the people talking and Sunset started to notice the blue flash a bit away.
“What is that?” Sunset asked out loud as she saw the other humans around her murmuring and some recording the energy.
“Oh my god sunset are you okay? I am sorry i left you like that it just happened and then-” Cadence started but then was stopped by Sunset started to run. “S-SUNSET WAIT!” Cadence yelled out running after the bacon haired girl.
“Hey wait, Cadence. Damn, she always loves to run off!” Shining yelled as he ran after the two leaving Flash and Mag behind.
“Come on Mag let's follow them!” Flash started as Mag grabbed his arm and stopped him and looked at him with the straight face expression Flash always knew made Mag overthink things.
“Flash, do you believe and trust this girl?”Mag asked as she looked into Flash's eyes. She always looked at him for support or help with a random idea.
“W-well yes why what's wrong?” Flash asked as he looked back a bit worried for Mag as he always knew that she was a bit paranoid in life.
“I don't know, I feel like she is hiding something,” Mag said as she looked at Flash and sighed. Then she felt Flash give her a kind kiss on her cheek.
“Don't worry your head, okay Mag. She seems new and we should help anyone we can. I am sure she is fine and she will be a great person” Flash said as he grabbed her hand, “Now come on let's go” Flash shouted as he pulled Mag along with him.
As the group chased after Sunset she was first to reach the nearby park she saw a teen boy with long spiky hair ahead of her pushing the blast. She had felt like she had seen that hairstyle before but she doesn't quite know where but as she looked ahead to the other side of the blast she saw another teen boy that was pushing the energy blast back.
He had less hair than the first man but he had crazy hair and an orange uniform. Sunset had finally realized what is going on and who these two are, “Oh no. Why are they here? The mirror was only supposed to use their energy not bring them here!” Sunset said out loud as behind her cadence caught up.
“Sunset what's going on- Oh my… god” Cadence started and stopped as she saw the scene in front of her, a man with long hair being pushed back as blue energy was seemingly coming from the man’s palms.
Shining armor turned the corner and saw the scene and in fear saw Cadence and the new girl in the way of the incoming blast. “C-Cadence? CADENCE!” Shining yelled As she turned around to see Shining calling her Cadence felt Sunset tug her arm.
Cadence turned around to see the long-haired man turn to them and seemed to smile an evil sinister smile. “Oh no.” Sunset said.
As Raditz turned his face to the blast again he grew an idea in his head, knowing about his little brother's love for innocents and the good people of the world he charged his energy up again. “Alright, Kakarot! You want me to stop fighting? FINE!” Raditz yelled as he stopped the blast and pushed off his feet into the air making the energy blast go towards the two girls that were behind him.
“OH NO!” Goku yelled as he knew if he stopped the blast will still hit the two girls. In a quick movement, Goku twisted his arms in a weird left turn and down. This forced the energy blast to fly up into the air, barely missing the two girls and heading straight toward Raditz.
“W-What! NO, NO, NO!” Raditz yelled as he charged his energy blast to try to blast it back but it was too late the blast engulfed the teen Saiyan. As Goku stipped the blast he fell to his knee and saw the two girls shaking as a man ran to their rescue.
“T-too close.” Goku said as he started to shake from the energy loss. He looked ahead and saw the girl and a man running to the two. As Goku smiled he looked up and he focused to sense Raditz’s energy.
His eyes widened as he still sensed his brother and soon saw the dust disappear and Raditz floated mid-air. His clothes are a bit dirty but still wearable. “N-No,” Goku said as Raditz winced in a bit of pain.
“Damn it how did he do that much damage, it must be this weak teenage body. I cant hit as hard or blast as hard as I used too and if that's the case then I can't take as much damage either. That means the same for Kakarot. This could be used to my advantage.” Raditz thought in his mind as he floated down to his younger brother.
Sunset looked at the two beings and thought a few ideas. “H-Hey guys, I am going to try to talk to those guys. He seems hurt. Just wait for me here okay.” Sunset said as she got up and started to walk to Goku and Raditz
“S-Sunset are you crazy?” Cadence asked as Sunset turned and shook her head and just put her hands out to stay calm and quiet as she turned back around and continued to walk.
Goku already in a fighting stance breathed hard as he saw Raditz land in front of him, “Kakarot that's enough. We both know this fight is done.” Raditz said as he saw Goku's glare not stop, “I was wrong about my way of life. You are truly strong and caring and though your planet had weak fighters you somehow made a strong warrior within their ranks!” Raditz said as he tried to say anything to calm down Goku. “I am sorr-ugh, I am sorr-ack… I am ssssss” Raditz started and had a bit of a problem saying the last word.
“Sorry?” Goku asked as Raditz nodded and looked at the humans as Flash and Mag caught up with Shining, Cadence, and Sunset. “If you are truly sorry then go say sorry to the girls,” Goku said as Raditz looked at Goku as if he just asked him to fight Frieza with one hand and a blindfold.
“K-Kakarot you're joking! Look, it's bad enough that I am not killing them on the spot and that we are both too tired to keep fighting, us Saiyans should not be merciful or caring for other beings.” Raditz said as he crossed his arms and looked away from Goku.
“Fine. If you don't want to say sorry to them we can just continue our fight and seeing how you were hit by my blast you don't have much energy to keep fighting” Goku said as he got ready and Raditz panicked.
“Now let's not get hasty! We shouldn't talk to them. They could be strong and powerful. We don't know how dangerous they could be!” Raditz said as he could not feel their energy since he used a scouter for his whole life.
“No they are pretty weak Raditz. We should actually go to them and say hello. I mean one is already coming this way.” Goku said as he pointed to the bacon haired girl walking to them.
“WHAT” Raditz yelled as he grabbed Goku and flew off with all the strength he had left with Goku. As Goku was caught off guard he wasn't able to stop Raditz and off they went. Sunset was left even more shocked than before as Sunset looked up
“What the heck? So they can fly as well!” Sunset asked no one as she was going to try to talk to the two beings and try to explain everything. Sunset looked at the streak of energy leaving and she turned to the group as they seemed very worried for her.
As Raditz kept flying Goku had managed to grab Raditz’s tail and pull hard enough to paralyze the older Saiyan. “K-Kakarot! You dumbass! We are in the air!” Raditz managed to yell out as he felt gravity take his body and they both started to fall down into the earth.
Goku panicked as he saw the outcome of his idea. “OH COME ON. Raditz if you can deparalyze it would be really great!” Goku yelled out as he and Raditz started to fall. As Goku looked down he saw that they were a bit deeper into the city
Sunset
As the group of teens got their bearings and calmed down a bit and they all decided to go their separate ways to go to their homes and rest for the night. Cadence was going to walk Sunset to the Canterlot Castle but she felt scared and shaken from the recent event. So to help the group out Mag volunteered to take Sunset to the Castle. Flash had helped Shining take Cadence back to her home since she lived in the city. Now Sunset walks with Mag as they both stay quiet and silent and mostly awkward.
“So Mag, how long have you stayed at the canterlot castle?” Sunset asked Mag as she tried to make a small conversation with these new acquaintances. Mag had stopped and Sunset had stopped as well.
“Don't act like we are friends.” Mag said with a venomous tint in her voice. Sunset backed away quickly as Mag took a step closer. “I know that there was no one moving in recently and just the fact that you don't know any idea of basic knowledge means that you are not from this world. Seriously how do you not know the President! Not only that but other countries and nations. Not only that but the fact that you kept looking at your hands for a while. It's just off. So tell me what are you?” Mag asked as she got face to face to Sunset
“Mag are you okay? I think you're finally losing it. I am just a normal human trying to make a new life. It's nice to see that you are not one to help. Wonder if Flash knows that.” Sunset said as she was trying to get under Mag’s skin. She moved on as Mag followed
“Don't act like I am going crazy. I know you aren't normal. I just don't know-how. So I will tell you this. When I find out what you truly are i will be back to ask for the truth.” Mag said as she and Sunset continued to walk. Neither chose to speak, not even breathe loudly they just stayed quiet and walked.
Goku and Raditz
As the world seemed to get closer Goku panicked, “NIMBUS! HERE NIMBUS!” Goku yelled out for his trusty cloud. He waited a few seconds and realized that it was not coming. “Aw, I should really plan out my actions before I act,” Goku said as he covered his eyes waiting for the hit of the earth but he felt something grab his jacket and slow his fall.
As Goku looked up he saw Raditz, “Okay you idiot, Rule number one. Do NOT touch my tail. We clear Kakarot?” Raditz asked as he wasn't really paying attention to where he is flying.
“O-Okay’ Sorry but have you never had your tail pulled?” Goku asked as he looked at his brother. His brother’s reaction seemed like Goku just spit on his face
“Kakarot a Saiyans tail is a valuable thing to unlock our power, we need these tails to become our stronger state! We use our tails to show others to not mess with us and this tail is one of the only things we Saiyans have!” Raditz ranted on as he stopped paying attention to where he was going.
Goku saw a weird vehicle with a fan on top and a long tail heading their way. Goku has also realized that Raditz was on a rant about these “Saiyan” things and it was getting bothersome, that is when Goku realized that Raditz might hit this thing. “Um, Raditz?” Goku started as Raditz groaned
“What Kakarot can't you see? I am trying to make my point apparent?” Raditz asked as he looked at his brother.
“Sorry, it's just that. We are about to hit that thing.” Goku said as he pointed ahead and Raditz followed his hand.
“Hm, what thing-” *BUNK* Raditz started but they had hit the helicopter headfirst and Goku hit the bottom part of the window.
“What the heck?” the pilot shouted out in shock as Goku had waved at the man. As the man just confusingly waved back Goku and Raditz slipped off the windshield and started to fall. “Okay Fire Light, that's the last time you do late night flys.” The pilot said to himself as he continued to fly
As Goku and Raditz fell Goku panicked as for Raditz he was more tired of this world already. As they hit a palm tree they were flung to another tree and rolled off the side of it onto the top of s roof and then hit the floor hard as people saw them hit the ground. “We are okay.” Goku said weakly as he put a thumbs up into the air as Raditz groaned in pain.
As the people just walked on one woman walked up to the two Saiyan. “Are you two alright?” The woman asked as Goku got up and shook his head. As Raditz rolled on his stomach and slowly got up.
“Heh Yeah, we are fine right Raditz?” Goku asked as Raditz looked away and crossed his arms. “He is usually grumpy,” Goku said as the woman helped him up
“Wow you two seem to hurt, where are your parents?” The woman asked as Goku looked up at her. She had grey hair that seemed to be red and brilliant yellow as she had a light amber skin color. Goku seemed to have seen this person before.
“Our parents aren't here, they are gone. What is it to you?” Raditz asked in a venomous tone as he turned around and looked at the old lady in the eyes. She stared back caringly as she seemed to have felt bad for the two.
“Well if that's true then I have a little orphanage for kids, I was actually returning back there now. So if you need a place to stay I would be happy to open my doors.” The old lady said as she put her hand out for Goku to take.
As Goku sensed the girl's energy she seemed kind enough to Goku. “Hey, Raditz lets go.” Goku said as he turned to his brother who seemed shocked.
“W-what? We don't even know her, she could be tricking us!” Raditz said as Goku grabbed her hand and they started to walk off. “K-KAKAROT! Augh, damn it…” Raditz said as he thought fast and then turned to the unknown world and then back to the lady and his younger brother who were chatting and laughing about something as they walked on. “H-HEY WAIT UP!”Raditz yelled as he ran after them.
Sunset
As Sunset and Mag made it to the Canterlot Castle Sunset saw a huge apartment place that could hold a lot of families, “Well Sunset if you truly are living here then i guess it's time for us to split up. I can only tell you, see you at school.” Mag said as she walked up the stairs quickly not wanting to spend more time with this person.
As sunset heard school she looked at Mag who had just turned the corner of the second level leaving the newcomer alone. “S-School?” sunset asked as she got up and walked to the main office for the apartments. As she entered she saw a man at the desk as he seemed to be bored out of his mind.
“Welcome to Canterlot Castle. What can i help you with?” The man asked as Sunset walked to him and looked at the rooms seeing the prices. Sunset saw most of the rooms were around 500 to 200 dollars but saw one room that cost 130 dollars. As Sunset looked into her pockets for money she saw that she somehow did have some money.
As she remembered the bits she took in Equestria it would have added up to 150 bits. But here it turned into coins in a bag. “Um, could you give me a minute or... five?” Sunset asked as the man rolled his eyes and nodded.
Goku and Raditz
As Goku and Raditz finally got to a house with the old lady Goku seemed happy and kind about the place as Raditz scoffed and looked away. “You expect us to live in this dump?” Raditz asked as he was about to walk away.
“Hey, Raditz be nice!” Goku shouted as the old lady put her hand on Goku's shoulder.
“It's fine, many people say that at first, I just never got the chance to clean out the front. Come inside and you will see the house is very nice.” the old lady said as she opened the door and let the two in.
“Thank you, and sorry about my b-brother. He could be a downer.” Goku said jokingly as this was the first time Goku has ever called Raditz brother in a kind way. Raditz seemed a bit shocked and felt happy that his only family is now treating him like a family member. They both entered and saw a few other kids chatting and walking around as they looked at the newcomers. Some kids were teens, others were little kids but they all didn't have a home.
Sunset
As she finally finished the money counting she smiled. “I have 150 cents,” Sunset said as she had woken up the man. He looked up at her and at the coins and didn’t want to recount it so he just took her word and counted 20 bucks out and gave her the 20 bucks and poured the other coins into the drawer that he had just cleaned.
“ So will you need help moving stuff into your apartment?” The man asked as he grabbed the key and gave it to Sunset.
Sunset looked at the man confused and shook his head. “Oh no I didn’t bring anything with me,” Sunset said as she got the key and started to walk out.
“Hm well the room is 34 and if you need help this place is always open.” The man said as he sat back and pulled out his phone. Sunset nodded and exited as she walked out and started the search for her room.
As Sunset had finally found her room she opened the door and walked in seeing that it was all empty. Not knowing how this world lives she thought that this may be how these people live and she put her bags in the corner, closed the door behind her and sat down to rest up. Sunset saw her book in her bag. Hesitantly she grabbed the book and opened it. She put her pencil in her mouth and sighed as she was thinking about what to write about. She was about to write but in the end, she chose it better to not write and she shut the book pushed it aside and rested her head on her arm and fell to a deep sleep
Goku and Raditz
As the two Saiyans were shown a room Goku bowed down as a thank you and Raditz scoffed again. They got into the bed ready to sleep until “Now if you two need something please don’t hesitate to ask. You will also need to go to school but we may talk about that tomorrow. For now, just rest up. You are in safe hands” the old lady said as she was about to leave the two Saiyans in their beds.
“Thank you for all of this Ma’am,” Goku said as he put his hands together in front of him and bowed again as the old lady smiled and nodded.
“What’s your name miss,” Raditz asked as he sat up in the bed and waited as the old lady smiled seeing she was finally able to make a small chat with this boy.
“My name is Sunset, Sunset Shimmer.” the old lady said as she smiled and closed the door and turned the lights off.
