Chapter 2:

Several hours have passed since Twilight got her response from Princess Celestia and she was packing her things to move to Ponyville. it was during her packing that she got a knock on the door.

"Spike? Could you answer that? I'm busy here." Twilight yelled from her room. Spike grumbled but complied. Upon opening the door, he found Twilight's brother, Shining Armor.

"Is Twilie home, Spike?" He asked, curiosity written on his features. Spike nodded and ushered him inside.

"Twilight, you're brother's here!" Spike called. Twilight gasped and galloped out to meet him.

"Shining Armor! What a surprise! It's been a while! How's the Royal Guard treating you?" She asked, firing off questions faster than he could answer.

"Whoa, calm down, Twilight. I just heard that you're leaving Canterlot and figured I'd come see you off. You... are done packing, right? The coach will be here any minute." Shining Armor said. Twilight smiled.

"Yep, just got done, actually. Thanks for visiting Shining, really. I hope you can find time to visit once I've settled in in Ponyville."

"Speaking of that, why does Princess Celestia want you to go there, anyway?"

Twilight frowned, thinking about it. "She said I have to oversee preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration and to "make some friends". But, I don't even know how to make friends. You're my only friend, Shining Armor! How can she expect me to make more?" Twilight started to panic at the seemingly impossible task.

"Twilight, there were plenty of ponies around Canterlot who would have liked to be your friends, if you had just given them a chance. But that's neither here nor there. Just be yourself, Twilight. Besides, it sounds like Princess Celestia has something bigger planned than either of us know." Shining said reassuringly. Not only that, but she wouldn't just ignore legends like the Mare in the Moon. She was the one who sealed Night Mare Moon, after all. "Cadence sends her well wishes, Twilight and apologizes for not making it. She has business elsewhere today."

Twilight nods. "Tell Cadence that I understand and I'll write when I get a chance."

Shining Armor nods. "Of course, Twilight. Now, how about I help you get your stuff out? They should be here by now."

Twilight nods and heads to her room with Shining right behind her.

Meanwhile, in Canterlot Hospital:

Goku had woken up an hour ago and was busy exercising, doing one-handed push-ups when the nurse came in. The nurse was surprised to see Goku out of bed so soon.

"Well, young man, I've rarely had the privilege to work with humans, but we should really check you over." The nurse said. Goku nods and flips into a one-handed handstand before propelling himself onto his feet. The nurse nods appreciatively. "Very nice. Now we need to just do some scans of your elbow and knees so we can tell how soon you can be released."

"Will the scans hurt?" Goku innocently asked.

"Oh, no. You won't feel a thing, really." With that, the nurse cast a spell to scan Goku's body. He soon had his answer and jotted notes down.

"Well, this is unusual. Your body doesn't show any signs of having been injured at all. It's like it healed overnight. Well, I don't see a reason for you to stay. Oh, yes. We had Canterlot's best seamstress make you a new outfit using the remains of the one you were wearing when you came here."

Goku nodded with a smile as he received his new gi and put it on. Once he was clothed he started to walk out. "Bye!"

The nurse waved as Goku left the room and made his way out of the hospital. He soon noticed a chariot soaring through the air toward the castle and he decided to follow it, not knowing where it would land. He continues to follow it all the way to Twilight's part of the castle, where he sees a purple unicorn standing with a white unicorn. He approaches cautiously but is sighted and approached by the white unicorn.

"Hey there. You must be the new visitor I've been hearing about. The name's Shining Armor. What's yours?" The white unicorn requested.

Goku smiles at the friendly attitude. "I'm Goku. Where am I exactly?" Goku asked.

Shining Armor frowns slightly. "You're in Canterlot, in the garden of Canterlot Castle. This is the home of Princess Celestia and her student, Twilight Sparkle."

Goku nods. "Who's Princess Celestia?"

"Princess Celestia is the ruler of all of Equestria and the one who controls the sun." Shining explained with a smile.

At that point, Twilight came out and saw the young Saiyan. "Oh, you're up and about already? I thought you'd be out of it for a few more days. I'd love to stay and chat, though, but I really have to go."

Shining Armor smiled as he got an idea. "Twilie, why don't you take this young man with you to Ponyville? You said yourself you don't know how to make friends. You can practice with him during the flight."

Twilight was shocked. "What? Him go with me? But..." At Shining Armor's look, she caved. "Fine. Though I don't see why the hell I have to. he'll just slow me down."

"Twilight, language!" Shining automatically scolded her, making her blush slightly.

"Right, sorry." It was at that point the the Pegasi who were running the chariot started showing their impatience, so Twilight and Shining Armor loaded the luggage in the second cart, as Twilight and Goku, who was eager to see more of this new world he was in, got into the first one.

"Oh, Goku, I heard from Princess Celestia that you're not the first human to have come here! Ask Twilight for more information, as I need to leave!" With that the white Unicorn took off back to his post as the Pegasi took off for Ponyville.

"Twilight, what did that white pony mean by 'I'm not the first human to have come here'?" he asked the purple unicorn.

Twilight frowned. "Princess Celestia held a seminar years ago where she told us about a time where Equestria had a portal to a land called Earth. She explained how humans were able to travel to our world from it, but when evil humans discovered the portal, she and Luna had to close it off. Unfortunately, not every human in Equestria had made it back to Earth, so she held a conference with the chosen leader of those humans. She asked for all the humans who wished to return to their land to approach her and Luna, and they'd teleport them, one-by-one, back to Earth. She also explained that those that remained would be given the choice of staying as they were, or being transformed into the animal of their choice. it's been decades since we've had humans here, so you coming here from Earth is a possible sign of the portals opening again." She explained with Goku nodding.

"But, what does that mean for me?" Goku asked nervously.

Twilight sighed. "Honestly, I haven't got a clue. Until we can find the portal that sent you here, then you're stuck here. You may even be given the same choice as the other humans who were stuck here long ago. Now, enough talk, we're here. As much as it pains me to say this, I'm going to need your help unloading."

Goku smiled. "You can count on me. After all, that's what friends are for, right?"

Twilight looks surprised for a second before nodding. "Right." Once the chariots landed, Goku and Twilight unloaded everything and took them into the library, where the trunks were set in a corner. Spike, who had gone with them and had stayed up all night helping Twilight pack had gone to sleep, leaving Goku alone with Twilight.

"Now that that's done, we need to start overseeing preparations. First off is food, at Sweet Apple Acres. I wonder where that is."

Goku smiled. "I have a plan to get a nice view of the town. I only hope my Nimbus can jump dimensions or whatever."

Twilight looks confused. "Your Nimbus? What's your Nimbus and why would it need to jump dimensions?"

Goku just smiled. "You'll see." he then took a deep breath and gave a yell "Flying Nimbus!" Seconds ticked by and turned into minutes. "Huh. I guess it can't." At that moment, there was a twinkle and the sound of an explosion as a golden cloud burst through the dimensional wall, creating a rainbow effect, carrying what looked like a small staff and a pouch with a note that was somehow not falling off. The golden cloud slowed to a stop in front of Goku and a very surprised Twilight. The Saiyan grabbed the note and read it aloud.

"Dear Goku,

Kami has figured out a way to contact you and send you supplies. He doesn't know your exact location, but we are busy working on a way to find you. In the meantime, he has allowed us to send your Nimbus and Power Pole along with a bag of Senzu Beans.

best Wishes,

Your friends from Earth."

Goku smiled as he finished reading. "They're the best friends I could ask for."

Twilight smiled but that turned to a shocked look as Goku jumped up onto and balanced on the cloud, taking his staff and pouch and afixing them to his gi. "How... are you doing that?"

Goku looked at her and smiled wider. "This cloud is special. Anyone with a pure soul can ride it. With this we'll be able to see the entire town. Hop on!"

Twilight frowned. "Are you sure its safe?"

"If you have a pure soul, yes. otherwise you'll just fall through." Goku explained. Twilight took a deep breath and, throwing caution to the wind, jumped onto the cloud, finding herself standing on it as if she were standing on the ground itself. "It's soft and fluffy."

"Yeah, it is. But we have a job to do." Twilight nodded. "Alright Nimbus, take us to the air. We want a nice view of everything." The Nimbus ascended and soon they had the view they wanted. They were easily able to find sweet Apple Acres and had the nimbus descend so they could walk. "Thanks Nimbus. I promise you'll get a proper flight soon."

The nimbus took off as the duo traveled on foot to the farm. On the way they saw a very pink pony approaching them.

"Twilight, why don't we make some more friends. That pink pony looks like a good start." As he spoke, the pink pony had approached them and politely waited for them to stop talking.

"Uh, hello?" Twilight tentatively said. In response, the pink pony jumped into the air with a loud gasp before zipping off somewhere else, as if afraid. "What... the hell... was that about?"

Goku shrugged. "Could be anything. But since that was a bust, let's go to Sweet Apple Acres. That's our first stop on the list."

Twilight nodded and they continued on their way. it took them about an hour on foot to reach the farm, and they were greeted by a loud cry of "Yee-haw" as an orange pony with a blonde mane and tail ran by toward one of the trees, only to stop, turn, and buck the tree, causing apples to fall from the tree. Twilight and Goku approached the mare.

"Good morning. My name is Twilight Sparkle, and this Is Goku." Twilight introduced them to her, when she grabbed Twilight's hoof and shook it vigorously.

"Well, howdy, neighbor. The name's Applejack." She let the unicorn's hoof go, but Twilight continued to shake it until Goku grabbed her leg and forced it to stop.

"So, you're in charge of the food?" Twilight asked.

Applejack nods. "We sure as sugar are! Allow me to show you around." She then led Twilight and Goku around the farm, telling her about its history before ending the tour at the benches. "Allow me to introduce the Apple family." And she was off giving the names of every Apple family member who had come for the reunion, ending with her own family members. Each member who was named placed an Apple product on the bench until it was piled high with food. At the end, Applejack gave Twilight an apple to eat, who took it graciously. "You know, I'd say you're already part of the family!"

In her shock, Twilight spit out the apple pieces and stared at AJ. "R-really? Well, I can see the food situation is handled, so we'll be on our way." She was interrupted from moving by a small voice.

"You're not going to stay for brunch?" A small, yellow pony with a red mane and tail and pink bow in her mane, Applebloom, spoke up.

"Sorry, but we have an awful lot to do." At that, all of the Apple family groaned. Twilight stayed silent for a few seconds. "Fine." She said with a sigh.

It was a couple hours later that Twilight and Goku managed to leave the farm, both full to bursting. "Ugh, I think I ate too much pie. i feel sick." it was at that moment that a blue blur crashed into her, toppling them both into a nearby mud puddle and leaving her dizzy. the pony who crashed into her chuckled sheepishly.

"Sorry about that." The pegasus noticed Twilight now pale face. "You don't look too good. Uh-oh." The pegasus was gone in a blur and returned just as fast with a bucket, that Twilight took graciously, releasing her lunch into it. "Sorry about that. The name's Rainbow dash, but you can call me Rainbow, Dash, or RD. Call me either Rain or Bow and you'll get smacked."

Twilight groaned as she finished emptying her stomach. "I-it's okay. I didn't need all that, anyway. So, Rainbow Dash... You're in charge of the weather, right?" Twilight was slowly getting her bearings back, as Rainbow nodded. "That's right. I'm the fastest pegasus to ever come from Cloudsdale."

"Yeah, also the laziest. The sky is still full of clouds. If you're so fast, then why hasn't the sky been cleared yet?" Twilight scowled after she finished talking because Rainbow was chuckling.

"I think the first thing that should be done is give someone a bath. You're filthy. What's your name, anyway?" Rainbow said.

"My name is Twilight Sparkle. And the human beside me is Goku." As Twilight spoke, rainbow fetched a rain cloud.

"You'd best step away from the bucket. Once I kick this cloud, it'll emtpy itself of all its rain." Rainbow explained as Twilight nodded and moved away, not wanting to have her vomit bucket tipped. She still staggered slightly as Rainbow kicked the cloud, causing Twilight to be hit with a downpour, cleaning her of her mud, but also causing her mane and tail to lie flat. The rainbow-maned pegasus chuckled again. "You look silly, but it's time for my Patented Rain-Blow Dry! get ready, because I'm not stopping until you're dry!"

Twilight voiced her discomfort as Rainbow started flying around the unicorn, getting faster and faster as a twister formed around her, collecting the rain water from her coat and hair and drawing it upwards and away from her. Rainbow stopped flying sometime later with twilight's hair dry but really curly. Rainbow paused for a second to admire her handiwork before bursting into laughter. She laughed for several seconds before calming down.

"Now what was it you wanted?" Rainbow asked, still chuckling slightly.

"Why isn't the cloud clear yet? if you're really as fast as you say you are, then you should have been done by now." Twilight said angrily.

Rainbow continued to smile.

"Yeah, You caught me in the middle of practicing for the Wonderbolts. I'll do it when I'm done." Rainbow said.

"Why don't you add sky clearing as part of your training? Afterall, I doubt the Wonderbolts would accept a pegasus who can't even keep the sky clear for one day!" Twilight had said the magic words and got Rainbow focused.

"Oh, yeah? I could clear the sky in ten seconds flat!" rainbow boasted.

"How about you brag after you get the job done?" Twilight taunted. Rainbow frowned and got to work, finishing in 9.6 seconds, causing her to utter a colorful swear, making Twilight's eyes widen.

"I was off by 4/10 of a second! Oh, well, you still saw how fast I was, right?" Rainbow asked. Twilight nodded, still in shock at the vulgarity Rainbow showed. "You know, you're pretty fun, Twilight Sparkle. I can't wait to hang out some more."

Twilight shook her head and headed for the next stop: Rarity's Carousel Boutique. Upon entering, she and Goku find Rarity at work beautifying the place up. She approached her and tried to speak, but got interrupted by her telling Twilight not to interrupt. It was a few minutes later that she turned around and immediately caught sight of Twilight's train wreck of a mane and tail. And that caused Twilight to be dragged up to have her hair done, with Rarity explaining all about her Boutique and what she does. it was when she asked Twilight where she was from that she got a shock while securing a saddle.

"Canterlot? Oh, I've always dreamed of living there! the fassion! The society! The glammor!" She took a second look at the saddle she secured to Twilight and gave a start at the emerald in the center. "Emeralds, what was I thinking. Let me get you some rubies!" it was at this point that Twilight had enough and tried to get away.

"Quick, Goku! Before she decides to die my coat a new color!" And with that, she leaves the boutique, tossing the saddle onto the ground before she exited completely.

It took them a couple more hours to find the next pony, Fluttershy, who was working on the music. it turned out that Fluttershy was a very shy pony and barely responded until Goku made the scene, where she excitedly exclaimed about never meeting a human before. Goku jumped just out of her reach and Fluttershy fell in step with Twilight as they walked to the Library, asking Goku anything and everything about his culture and people.

After failing to leave Fluttershy at the door, Twilight and Goku walked into their own Welcome Party made by Pinkie pie, the very pink mare who gasped and zipped away at their first meeting. The party ran long into the night and early morning hours, when they had to head to the Mayor's building for the rising of the sun, when suddenly everything went wrong as the room got darker and blue and purple mist filled the hall as laughter rang throughout. Suddenly, the mist coalleced into a single, large Alicorn mare. Twilight shied back this, muttering the mare's name as she started to speak.

"Oh, my beloved subjects, it's so nice to see you after 1,000 years! Please tell me you remember who I am! That the stories I'm sure were told about me weren't forgotten!" The mysterious mare said.

"I know who you are, and why you're here! You're the Mare in the Moon, Night Mare Moon!" Twilight exclaimed, to gasps of fright from everyone.

"I'm so glad someone remembers me. And you even know why I'm here! How wonderful." Night Mare gloated. "Yes my subjects. Now that I am here, the sun shall never rise again! Night shall last forever!" She laughed evilly at that as Twilight glared at her.

Night Mare Moon has returned! Will Twilight, Goku, and their new friends be able to stop her, or will her reign go uncontested for all eternity? Find out next time!
