The sun once again began to rise over the land of Equestria. Cyre was stirred awake by the sun shining into his face. With a loud yawn, Cyre stretched himself out and got himself moving, doing his early morning stretches as he would back home on Earth. While he was doing that, He took a look over at Izzy, who was still sleeping. Cyre decided to leave her be. She likely doesn't wake up as early as he would every day, and on top of that they were starting a trek today to Maretime Bay, and who knew how long a trip like that could take! Cyre packed up whatever he'd taken out to make up the camp and simply went into the nearby grasslands to criss-cross and meditate, eventually floating a few feet off the ground in the process.

"MORNING CYRE!!!"

This loud outburst caused Cyre to let out a yelp of surprise as his concentration was entirely lost, flopping onto the ground. He looked up to find none other than Izzy Moonbow, who was smiling as she stood on top of his chest, their noses almost touching. Cyre tried to look anywhere other than forward, but he couldn't get Izzy out of his gaze. He sighed woefully, grabbing her sides and lifting her as he started to pick himself up.

"Morning... By the way, do you mind? I'd most appreciate it if you didn't do that. I was trying to concentrate."

Izzy looked up at Cyre again, her smile somewhat fading before she answered.

"Oh... sorry. Yeah, I probably should've known better. I apologize for that. Anyway, other than this little spout, I'm ready to start trekking again! I hope you're ready to, it's gonna be about another day and a half before we get to Maretime Bay!"

"Yeah, I've been ready for a while. I was waiting for you to wake up so we could get going actually."

With that, Cyre put down Izzy as the two began the long walk to Maretime Bay. About halfway through the day, Cyre spotted a far-off flat-top mountain that appeared to have buildings on it. Cyre would've flown there to get a better look, but he can't just abandon Izzy after all. As far as he knew, he was her first friend in her life... damn. Just how sad was the mare to not have any friends at all, and for her first possible acquaintance to be an extraterrestrial? He shook his head and looked at Izzy again to ask her about the mountain, to which he pointed it out and she answered.

"Oh, that place? That's Zephyr Heights, the pegasus city I was talking about earlier. I heard that the place was awfully pretty. I wish I could visit it someday... Well! Back to trekking!" Izzy then proceeded to sing a little toon as she began trotting off on the road they were on, with Cyre quickly catching up. The hours continued to pass before the two eventually set up camp again for the night. This time though Izzy bombarded Cyre with questions, that he'd promised to answer once they'd stopped for the evening. Cyre had to take it one step at a time, explaining Earth, its people, customs, and most importantly his friends and family. Izzy barely could understand what he was getting at, but she could understand, and fear, some of the stories about Earth's struggles with the androids, the Saiyans, Frieza, Cell, and Lord Beerus. Cyre did manage to calm her down with tales of the aftermath of them, with large events planned to celebrate their victories. Lastly, he started to explain himself, and who he was.

"Well...you see, I may be from Earth. But...I'm different. Most Earthlings are called Humans. All humans were born and raised on Earth. Me on the other hand...I'm a Saiyan-hybrid." He began.

"Saying?" Izzy asked.

"Close, say it again without the g...anyways. Even though I was raised on Earth, I'm not a human at all. I'm pretty similar to humans, but humans are much weaker naturally. I was a warrior race, born with a passion to fight, and incredible natural strength. At least, that's what my four fathers told me. In all technicality, I'm not all Saiyan. Only half of one. I'm also half-human." Cyre explained. Izzy wanted to question how that was possible, but then she realized that she probably shouldn't meddle with how the conception of a child of two different races is created, so she remained quiet and nodded.

"My mom's friend Bulma and her father built a spaceship for me to go to this world in. I wanted to explore a little, which led me here. I liked it on Earth, but I didn't wanna stay there forever. I felt the need to get out in the universe, forge my path... not have to hold a candle to my father."

"Wow, this Bulma must be a genius to be able to build things that fly through space!" Izzy said, which made Cyre laugh.

"Yeah, she's pretty awesome. Well, as soon as I was back on my feet after Frieza was defeated, I took off from Earth, and headed here! Luckily, Bulma's father taught her everything she knows, so she was the perfect one to build my ship. she installed a gravity amplifier built right into the ship for me to use in training, among other things, such as a shower and a kitchen. It looks pretty small and cramped from the outside, but it’s pretty spacious. Throughout my journey to Equestria, I trained at different levels of gravity, increasing the gravity as I got stronger. In the end, I was able to withstand a force of gravity 500x the gravity on Earth, where I'm from. Come to think of it, the gravity here is pretty similar to Earth's."

"I'm not quite sure what all of that means, but it sounds pretty important! That's one crazy little tale you have, Cyre. Though I can't imagine it's easy to cope with the fact that practically all the Saiyans are gone. someday you'll go extinct... That's enough doom and gloom though! I kinda already told you about my life, but do you wanna know why I'm braving the elements? It's cause I found a lantern from Maretime Bay. It said I had friends there. I wanted to see if whoever sent it would... really be my friend. But I'm already as is. I've already found a new friend that I wasn't even looking for. You, Cyre. You don't how happy it makes me to just... have somebody to talk to, you know?"

"You know, I never thought of it like that, but you're right. Whoever that pony is that sent that letter, I hope you find them... no... we'll find them. Together." Cyre then proceeded to yawn and get himself some sleep for the final lap of their journey. Izzy decided to sleep next to Cyre this time, laying down to the right of him. Cyre didn't quite understand why, but thought nothing of it and quickly fell asleep.

OUTSKIRTS OF MARETIME BAY- 4:30PM THE NEXT DAY

After a long day of walking, Cyre and Izzy had managed to reach the welcome sign of Maretime Bay, as dilapidated as it was. This was it, all that was left now was to enter the town. While he knew that these ponies had no chance to stop him at least, he was worried about Izzy if they caught her... then again, he could always save her. It was in this train of thought that he saw Izzy had already walked into the town entrance. Quickly playing catchup, he also ran into the town square. Before he could say anything at all, he heard a voice screaming out.

"Unicorn ataaaaaaack!"

"Damn that was quick. This much hysteria when she walks in? I wonder how they'll react to"

"What in the world is that thing?!? It looks like a walking, hairless ape! Where did that thing come from? Two creatures are attacking the town!"

Cyre could only roll his eyes as he looked for Izzy. He quickly spotted her with an earth pony, who seemed more intrigued than weirded out by both him and Izzy. The earth pony in question had an orange body, with maroon hooves and off-white orange socks on all hooves. Her mane was magenta-and-purple and was tied back in a braid with aquamarine elastics. Her tail didn't have any braiding though. She had emerald green eyes and dark magenta eyebrows. The two of them stared at each other, eyes locked on the others. Izzy laughed at the two, ultimately sighing.

"See? I told you he was a real unique friend! His name is Cyre!"

The earth pony mare could barely stutter out a few words. "W-What... what are you..."

"Man the Splat-a-pult! Activate the unicorn trap! Pick up that litter!" It was the pony that had pronounced the attack earlier. This gut must be an authoritative figure, given the badge. This one's body fur was colored amber. he had chocolate brown hooves. He had various white markings - white socks on his legs, a white belly, and a white blaze. He had a short, aqua green mane and average length tail, amber eyes, and light brown eyebrow. He could tell it was a male, due to the different shapes of their cheekbones. Regardless of that a bunch of traps started to open up beneath them, causing the earth pony mare to gasp as she watched Izzy almost step into a trap, before quickly saving her.

"Wow! Is that the sea? I've never seen the sea!"

"I gotta get you both outta here! Cyre! follow me!"

Cyre didn't hesitate, following the mare as Izzy quickly joined them both on their escape through the town. After a short explanation on why the earth ponies weren't playing games with the three of them, they quickly ran through a corridor. There were two splat-a-pults set up there, with three ponies manning them. well more like two ponies. the third pony, who immediately irked him as the Karen types of personality, stared intently at him. Just as his two companions were about to try and dodge them as they ran, Cyre held his hand out in front of them, a smirk on his face.

"I got this. Watch in awe..."

He immediately ran right into the line of fire, performing some incredibly acrobatic moves and quick movements as he dodged every slime ball that is thrown his way. Eventually, though, he got tired of doing this and he quickly did two-finger shots, which hit the mechanics of each of the machines, shutting them down as he whistled to his companions to make a break for it. Luckily, in this universe, Izzy doesn't get caught in the cage, mainly because Cyre was next to her. and as such moved her out of the way. As they left the town Izzy had a few parting words.

"Bye! It was nice to meet you all!"

"No it wasn't!" Cyre quickly shouted as well. The trio quickly made their way up to a nearby hill, where a lighthouse sat. Seems this is where this earth pony lived. Cyre, Izzy, and the earth pony quickly ran inside, closing all the blinds and curtains before relaxing. The earth pony gave a long stare at Cyre, who nodded. She then started to stare at Izzy for a bit, before Izzy started speaking to her.

"Do Earth ponies also like staring contests? Hmmmmmmmmm... Ah! You win! I blinked!"

Sunny Starscout was left to contemplate how her day had developed. "There's... a unicorn... And an unknown race of alien... in my house... This is so cool! Wait, no, it's bad. Very, very bad. What have I done?"

"Wow! I've never seen an Earth pony before. We look exactly the same! Except for this, of course."

The earth pony had almost gotten her eye poked out as well, just like he had a day or so prior. 'Whoa! Hey! Be careful where you point that thing."

"Why?"

"Well, I, uh... um... sorta don't want to get zapped with a wayward laser beam. But of course, you know that already. You've probably been reading my mind this whole time. Isn't it supposed to glow, by the way? Or does that only happen when you levitate stuff?"

"Well, actually..."

"Wait! Don't answer that yet. Let me get my notebook! Okay, wow. Okay. "A hundred forty-two questions for a unicorn". Question number one - where do you live?"

"Bridlewood."

"I knew it! Do unicorns really live in trees? Do they eat pizza? If so, what toppings do they like? If not, why not? Can you actually fry pony brains with a single horn zap? Can you make this float?" The earth pony then shoved a can of bean towards Izzy.

"No... but I can do this." She then kicked up the can of beans and cut holes in the lid, the beans filling out onto the floor, with the can following soon after.

"Ta-daaaaa!"

"Wait. You don't have any magic? Wait, before I get to that... You! Cyre! That's your name, right? Where exactly did you come from? And what's that thing you're wearing on your face? How old are you? What species are you? Did you come here to invade? I hope the answer to that is no...How did you do those moves back in the town? What was that energy you shot out of your fingers, was it magic?"

Cyre only laughed, but he did kneel to her level the best he could.

"Alright. I'll answer your question in the order you asked. Yes, my name is Cyre. Secondly, I'm from another planet called Earth. It took me about a month to arrive here on this planet from Earth. Earth is a lot like this planet at first glance too, not much difference at all honestly. Except ponies aren't sapient where I'm from. If you want more info on that, ask about it later. What I'm wearing on my face is what you would call a scouter. It's a piece of high technology where I'm from. It measures an opponent's strength, aka power level, Giving you the distance from the target as well. They also function as communicators. I'm approximately 22 years old. As for what species I am, I'm not just one species I'm a 50/50 combination of two species: a Saiyan and an Earthling. Saiyans are a warrior race, who originated from another planet, not from earth. Earthlings are natives of earth, such as humans. And the answer to the invasion question is no. If invasion and hostile takeover were my plans, I would've just blown up the town in its entirety. I wouldn't have bothered walking in. Next question: training. Lots of training, plain and simple. The last question's answer is no. That wasn't magic, it was ki. in short terms, ki is the natural energy that flows through your body. I've managed to harness and use my ki to amplify my body's physical and technical abilities. Now that I answered your question, Mind answering just one for me? What's your name?"

"Oh? That's it? Well, I'm pleased to meet you. My name is-"

"Sunny Starscout! Argh, that hurt. Sunny Starscout, I know you're in there with that unicorn! And that... weird creature! Come out with your hooves up and surrender! You are under arrest!" a loud voice said from outside, a large feedback whine echoed from there.

Sunny Starscout only got worried by this, quickly turning to the duo of Cyre and Izzy. "This is bad. How sneaky are you?"

Izzy Moonbow was first to answer. "Uh, medium sneaky?"

Cyre answered next. "Pretty sneaky actually, despite my size."

Sunny Starscout smiled. "I can work with that. Okay, I'll distract them."

Izzy Moonbow quickly opened the door and walked outside, Cyre quickly following her. "Oh, pfft. Relax. I'll talk to them."

After a rather dull conversation, the trio made their way out of town.

Sunny Starscout, panting, asked Izzy the same question she'd asked earlier. "You don't have any magic?"

"Nope."

"No magic?"

"Oh, but if it makes you feel any better, we did have it, but that was many, many, many moons ago. It just – poof – disappeared. Everypony thinks the pesky Pegasi had something to do with it, but... O-Oh. Hey, you look kinda woozy. Are you okay?"

"Huh. I am on the run with a unicorn who has no magic, and a seven-foot-tall, energy shooting alien. What are we gonna do?"

Izzy Moonbow sniffed very closely to Sunny Starscout, freaking out both her and Cyre alike. "What are you doing?"

"You don't smell."

"Thanks. Wait, what?"

"I was told all you Earth ponies smell like rotten sardines, but you do not. Hmm."

"What else do unicorns say about Earth ponies?"

"Oh, just that you're lazy and not the brightest crystals in the forest."

"Charming."

"Nope, just those three. So, what's the plan?"

"Wait. I've got it! Izzy, we're going on a quest... to Zephyr Heights."

"The Pegasus city?"

"Yes. We need to find out what happened to your magic and bring it back. They have magic. Maybe they can help."

"Uh, but the Pegasi are bad news."

"Uh, you don't know that? You thought earth ponies smell! I don't think you're in any position to judge." Cyre said as-a-matter-of-factly.

"Cyre is right. What if you're wrong about them? Earth ponies were wrong about unicorns. They could welcome us with open wings."

"But what if they don't?"

"What?!?! How did we get all the way here? That song was only like, 2 minutes!"

At least 3 days had passed in the span of that 2 minutes of the song. At the police station in Maretime Bay, Hitch was talking with his inept deputy, Sprout Cloverleaf. Sprout's fur was colored red, with a slicked back, blond mane, white socks, maroon hooves, and a wavy blond tail. He also has green eyes, and thick, dark red eyebrows. He also was stupid and cowardly. HE ended up knocking himself out in the attack, then hid from danger in a cage. Before finally running from Cyre and Izzy when they walked outside.

"I told her. I told her. No more favors. No more bailing her out. She gave me no choice. No choice! All right. We need to arrest her and bring her back to face the full force of the law."

"Question – when you say "we", you mean...?"

“You and I.”

"Uh, I... I'd love to, but, um, I just gotta... clean up my workspace, get my papers in order, and, um..."

"You know what? I think you're right. This one's a job for Hitch and Hitch only. All right. Sprout, you stay here while I'm out dancing with danger. Keep everypony calm, maintain the peace, be a pillar of strength... Who am I kidding? Just try not to start a war while I'm gone, okay?"

The doors closed behind hitch as Sprout began to go on a rant about how inferior he was to the sheriff.

"Everypony loooooves Hitch. What does he have anyway? Sure, he's got a perfect mane, shredded abs, paid-off mortgage... So what?! I've got stuff! I can do, um... things! Like that! And that! And that!"

After his failed attempt to close a drawer, he groaned in frustration before another pony had barged in. By the name of Phyllis Cloverleaf, Sprout's mother. She was the Karen-type pony that Cyre noted and showed up earlier, destroying her ~~poorly produced~~ State-of-the-art products. Her fur was colored light peach-pink, slightly lighter fetlocks, reddish hooves, and pale blue eyes. Her eyebrows, tail, and mane are all golden blonde, the latter of which consists of large curls bundled atop her head. She wore hot pink glasses with eyelash silhouettes attached via silver screws, as well as a pearl necklace and earrings. She had subtle lavender eyeshadow. She also wears a brown lanyard with her ID tag on it.

"Where's Hitch?! Ponies all over town, they're terrified! They want answers!"

"He went after Sunny. Another solo Hitch mission."

"Sugarcube, why the Sprout pout? That's great news."

"It is?"

"Yes! It means that you are the sheriff! At least for now."

"I am! Hey there. The name's Sprout. Sheriff Sprout. What's the problem, filly? Don't worry. Sheriff Sprout is here. Pick up that litter! Sheriff Sprout's orders!"

For now, the town was in sprout's control... Celestia help all those poor souls...
