Previous ChapterPower Achieved Through Anger! Raian's Greatest Fear.
Raian and Rainbow Dash arrived in an large grassy field. Raian landed first and looked over the terrain very slowly.
"Nice and flat. Just the way I like it." Raian said to himself as Rainbow Dash landed next to him.
"So what are we going to do first, Raian? Teach me how to use ki? How to warp? How about how to-"
"Dodge!" Raian screamed as he swung a slow punch at Rainbow Dash's head. She barely managed to dodge his punch by ducking her head down towards the ground. Before Rainbow Dash could get back up, Raian kneed her in the jaw which sent her stumbling backwards several feet. She stopped stumbling and grabbed her jaw with a hoof. She rubbed her jaw a little and took her hoof away and looked at it. She saw some blood on her hoof and she licked her lip and tasted something coppery. She looked back up at Raian and saw him with his Power Pole in his hands.
"Power Pole extend!" Raian yelled before swinging the Power Pole at Rainbow Dash. Raian swung the Power Pole too fast for Rainbow Dash to see and it collided with her legs. She was flipped upside down but before she landed on the ground, Raian caught her and held her in his arms. She slowly opened her right eye and looked up at Raian with a plain expression.
"Ow." Rainbow Dash said before shutting her eye again. Raian laughed a bit before speaking.
"You said you wanted to be trained so you need to be able to handle a little pain." Raian explained as he set Rainbow Dash down on her back and opened up the bag of Senzu Beans attached to his belt. He took out a Senzu Bean and put it in Rainbow Dash's mouth.
"Eat it. It'll make you feel better." Raian told Rainbow Dash truthfully. Rainbow Dash did as Raian said and she ate the Senzu Bean. She swallowed it and in a few moments, Rainbow Dash got a huge burst of energy. She hopped up to her hooves and looked herself over. She felt stronger than before.
"Those things are amazing!" Rainbow Dash said as she turned back to Raian. "I feel like I could fly for miles!"
"Alright. Now that your in full condition, we can begin your training." Raian said as his attitude turned into that of a serious one.
"Wait!" Applejack and Spike's voice screamed from the distance. Raian and Rainbow Dash turned their heads and saw Applejack and Spike walking at them.
"You weren't going to train without me, were you Raian?" Spike asked with a little agitation.
"I didn't think you were going to come." Raian answered as he went and picked up his Power Pole and put it back into the sheath on his back. Applejack and Spike stopped next to Rainbow Dash and waited for Raian to come back over. He stopped a few feet in front of them and looked all of them over. His eyes shifted to the sky and he held up his right hand and generated a blue ki ball.
Applejack and Rainbow Dash stared at it in amazement before Raian threw the ki ball up towards the sky. They all watched it travel into space and Raian snapped his fingers and the ki ball exploded. Applejack and Rainbow Dash watched the explosin in awe until it faded away. They then turned back to Raian and smiled brightly.
"You have got to teach me how to do that!" Rainbow Dash said while stepping closer to Raian.
"Yeah! I'd love to be able to fly like you do!" Applejack said while stepping closer to Raian as well.
"Alright. I'll teach you. But you better be ready to spar when the time comes." Raian said while maintaining his serious attitude.
"You mean we have to fight you?" Rainbow Dash said almost fearfully. Raian turned to her and smiled.
"Spike did it, and he did just fine." Raian explained.
"Yeah. But Spike's a dragon! On top of that, he's like a hundred times stronger than we are since you've started to train him!" Rainbow Dash said a bit angrily.
"And I still can't get Rarity's attention..." Spike mumbled under his breath.
"That may be but he was made of something weaker than Yamcha when he started." Raian stated while folding his arms.
"I don't know what this "Yamcha" is. But it sounds disappointin'." Applejack said as she tried to think of what a Yamcha could be. As Raian watched Applejack's facial expressions change, he began to think up an idea.
"Spike. I want you to train Rainbow and AJ." Raian stated as he unfolded his arms.
"What!?" Spike, Rainbow and Applejack said in unison.
"That's right. Spike is going to train you two."
"But I wanted to be trained by you!" Rainbow said with disappointment building up inside her.
"I know you did, but I have something more important to take care of right now." Raian said as he began to walk north. "Spike, you know what to do."
"Okay." Spike said quietly. Raian then took flight towards the Frozen North that he's heard of from Twilight. Spike watched Raian fly until he was no longer visible and he turned to Rainbow Dash and Applejack with a new found confidence.
"Okay. First, you need to learn about Ki." Spike said as he brought his hands up to demonstrate.
The Frozen North, a frozen wasteland which was currently blowing a blizzard, but also a place that holds the beautiful Crystal Empire. Raian flew until he found a nice flat piece of land. He flew down and landed softly and looked around the environment slowly. He stopped when he saw the Crystal Empire in the distance and looked at it for a while.
"That should be enough distance so no one could get hurt." Raian said as he turned 90 degrees to the left and looked down at the ground in front of him. He brought his hands up to his waist line and he shut his eyes. His blue flame aura slowly began to radiate around his body and his hair began to sway more. In a few moments, Raian transformed into a Super Saiyan which made Celestia and Luna who were still at the castle in Canterlot perk their heads up.
"What's Raian doing, sister?" Luna asked as she turned her head to Celestia.
"I don't know, Luna. But he's generating a great amount of power, and it feels like he's only in his Super Saiyan form." Celestia said as she shut her eyes and used her magic to find Raian's location. She found him in the Frozen North where he was powering himself up.
Luna followed suit with Celestia and she shut her eyes and managed to find Raian with her magic. They both watched Raian charge up his power, but something was different. His power seemed to be growing at an abnormal rate which was surprising Celestia and Luna both.
"Where is he getting all of this power?" Luna said as shock and fear began to grow in her voice.
"I don't know, Luna. Let me take a look inside his mind." Celestia said as she used more magic to cast a mind reading spell on Raian. What she saw made her gasp loudly and open her eyes.
"What is it, Tia?" Luna asked worriedly.
"Take a look for yourself." Celestia said calmly. Luna then used her magic and used the same spell Celestia used to look inside his mind. She too gasped at what Raian was thinking and she turned to Celestia.
"What's causing him to think such thoughts?" Luna asked as she looked to Celestia again.
"I just don't know, Lulu. But he's doing it purposely to increase his power to whole new levels." Celestia said with fear beginning to grow inside of her as well.
Meanwhile, Raian was thinking about the dream he had last night. Those two alicorns that mercilessly took his life and ruined the lives of others.
"Those... Fucking... Bastards!" Raian said angrily. He then began to yell very loudly and his aura grew three times larger and the electric sparks that were flashing around him grew to the size of lightning bolts.
Raian continued to scream as he transformed into a Super Saiyan 3. Celestia and Luna's eyes shot open as Raian's power skyrocketed to unimaginable levels.
"He's stronger than we are now!" Luna yelled in amazement.
"And his power is still growing." Celestia finished as she continued to watch Raian through her magic. She looked out of a window facing north and she saw Raian's aura and electric sparks flashing violently in the distance.
Meanwhile, at the Crystal Empire, Cadence was standing on the highest balcony of the crystal castle, watching Raian power up to godly levels of power.
"Is this that Saiyan that Aunty Celestia and Luna were talking about?" Cadance asked herself. "My gosh, he's even stronger than they are. He has enough power to destroy an entire solar system! No, a galaxy even!"
"As long as I'm standing, you will never rule over Equestria!" Raian yelled as his power reached its limit.
He stopped yelling and he slowly brought his hands back down to his sides. He reverted back to his normal form and felt his new found power coursing through his body like a raging fire. He looked towards a mountain in the distance and got ready to do his signature attack, the Blue Flame Breaker.
He held his hand above his head and generated a Blue Flame ki ball which flared with blue flames. He held it above his head for a while before grabbing it in his hand and throwing it at the mountain. The ki ball hit the mountain and the mountain shone brightly for a second before exploding into pieces of rubble.
Raian watched what was left of the mountain fall down to the ground before he pulled his hand back. He stood in silence for a while before finally taking flight back to Canterlot. As he flew, Cadence was on the verge of a heart attack after seeing such raw power.
"He's the most powerful warrior I've ever seen! He makes Shining Armour look like an ant! If the ant was... This big!" Cadence said as she used her hooves and held them about a foot apart. She then looked back up and watched Raian fly until he was out of sight.
"I wonder when I'm going to meet that Saiyan. And from what I've read from the letters Aunty Celestia was sending me, he's already the coltfriend of both she and Luna! I'm curious as to how much more will come!" Cadence said before she got up and walked back inside the castle.
A few minutes later, Raian arrived back at the field where Spike was training Rainbow Dash and Applejack. What he saw made him a little impressed. Rainbow Dash and Applejack were already firing ki blasts and waves. Rainbow Dash and Applejack spotted Raian and they smiled brightly.
"Hey Raian! Look at what we can do!" Rainbow Dash said as she and Applejack were surrounded in an aura. Applejack's was orange in color while Rainbow's was cyan. Raian smiled and chuckled a bit.
"You two learn fast. Maybe I won't need to hold back when we do spar." Raian said while smiling. Rainbow and Applejack's hearts seemed to stop and they stared at Raian with wide eyes. Raian laughed at their reactions which confused them.
"What's so funny?" Rainbow said with uncertainty.
"Your guys' faces." Raian said as he stopped laughing. "I'm not going to fight you at full power unless it calls for it."
Rainbow Dash and Applejack breathed a sigh of relief then gave Raian an unamused look. Raian looked back at them and gave them a serious look.
"Girls, I'm going to be heading back to Canterlot to have a talk with the princesses. You can continue to train of you want, I'll leave that up to you." Raian said as he turned around and began walking towards Canterlot.
"Can I come with you?" Rainbow asked quickly.
"Not this time Rainbow." Raian said before taking flight towards the castle. Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Spike simply watched Raian fly away. Without a second thought, they all went back to training.
The doors of the throne room were opened and Celestia and Luna opened their eyes. They saw Raian walking towards them with a serious look on his face. He stopped in front of their thrones and looked at them seriously.
"I know you two felt the amount of power I generated not too long ago, and I bet you two know what caused it." Raian said seriously.
"Yes, we do. It was the fear and anger of our mother and father coming and killing you and overthrowing us and eventually the entire universe." Celestia said knowingly.
"But, the power you generated seems only achievable when you are angered. I can feel your power decreasing as we speak." Luna said as Raian turned his eyes to her.
"I know. If only there was a way to keep this power. If I remember correctly, you said that your parents made you two look like children, right?" Raian said while moving his eyes between both of them. Celestia and Luna nodded in confirmation. "Then I'm going to need to find a way to access it without getting angry so that I can become strong enough to stop them."
"Its possible. But I doubt it'll be enough." Celestia said honestly.
"Is that so?" Raian said as his mind drifted back to the part of the prophecy where it said that he was to acquire a form that covers his body in red fur. "What does it mean?"
Celestia knew what Raian was thinking and she spoke up.
"I'm not sure either. But we must find out if you are to have any chance of beating them." Celestia said seriously.
As the three continued to talk, two powerful alicorns, one male and the other female, watched them through a magic pool from the Underworld. The female alicorn had an astral like body complete with stars. Her hair and tail were long and black and flowed like Celestia and Luna's. She wore a whitish blue necklace and hoof coverings encrusted with purple jewels with a crown on her head to match. Her cutie mark was a full moon with stars surrounding it and her eyes were a beautiful dark purple color, but her gaze was menacing and evil.
The male alicorn on the other hand had a body that appeared to be on fire. His coat was a red and orange color, very much like the sun. His mane and tail were orange, red and yellow in color and it flowed more like a fire would rather than what Celestia and Luna's hair does. His cutie mark was a bright golden sun with orange flames coming out of it. He wore a golden necklace and hoof coverings encrusted with crimson jewels with a crown on his head to match as well. His eyes were crimson in color and he appeared just as evil as the female alicorn did.
The female alicorn turned her gaze from the magic pool and looked at the male alicorn.
"That Saiyan proves himself to be very powerful. He makes our slaves look like children with that kind of power."
"And a person with that kind of power is a threat to us. As soon as we break out of here and get to Equestria, we must kill him with haste." The male alicorn said as he continued to stare at Raian through the pool of magic water.
"Too bad. He would of made a good servant too." The female alicorn replied as she stared at Raian closely.
"What? Don't tell me you're starting to fall for that monkey?" The male said as he turned from the magic pool and looked at the female. The female turned to him and gave him an angry look.
"You know I would never do that, Solaris!" The female alicorn yelled.
"I know, Lunalia. But still, we can't have leave any threats alive, including him if we want to rule the universe." Solaris said sternly. The sound of hooves clopping could be heard which made Solaris and Lunalia's ears perk up. They turned towards the clopping hooves and saw that their three servants have returned with blood on their hooves. One was a pegasus, one was a unicorn, and the other was an earth pony. All three of them were stallions.
"Did you get anything?" Lunalia asked as she gazed at the three servants.
"No. Those little devil guys are more stronger willed than we thought. But we'll beat the information out of them eventually." Said the earth pony. He was the size of an alicorn and he had very large muscles. His eyes were red, and his coat was a dark brown. His mane and tail were a dark orange and his cutie mark was a globe with a horse shoe stamp upon it. Oddly enough, his cutie mark seemed to glow.
"Uh! I wanna get outta here! I wanna show that Raian guy what true speed really is!" Said the pegasus as he stared down into the magic pool at Raian. The pegasus' coat is a light shade of black. His mane and tail were blood red with a few golden streaks running through them. He has light blue eyes and his cutie mark is a lightning bolt, which also seemed to glow.
"That time will come, Thundering Sky. But until then, I suggest we get as strong as possible if we want to kill that Saiyan. He's proven himself to be capable of destroying an entire galaxy by himself." Said the unicorn as he stepped towards the magic pool and peered down at the prophesied Saiyan. The unicorn has a coat of white, and his eyes are green. His mane and tail are white as well, but had a golden tip on the ends of each. His cutie mark is a red star that was breaking into pieces. It also glowed slightly.
"Star Binder is right. We need to be patient." said the earth pony.
"That's not very easy, Titan Hoof. There's not a single good looking mare down here in the Underworld!" Thundering Sky yelled as he threw his hooves up in the air for emphasis. Lunalia then gave him an unamused look. "One that isn't already taken, that is."
"Sounds like a personal problem. Now leave us." Solaris demanded while motioning with his hoof. Titan Hoof, Star Binder and Thundering Sky bowed and left Lunalia and Solaris alone. After they were gone, Solaris looked back down into the magic pool at Raian.
"Its only a matter of time before we make our return, and when we do, I hope you've said your prayers... Saiyan." Solaris said as his crimson eyes glowed.
"Covers my body in red fur? My Great Ape form covers my body in blue fur, but that can't be it, could it?" Raian asked inside of his mind as he trained at 500 times normal gravity. He stopped throwing punches and thought for a bit on the subject.
"No, it can't be it." Raian said to himself before he continued his training.
A few moments later, Raian heard a crash outside. He looked outside to see Rainbow and Applejack fighting each other. He quickly turned off the gravity machine and ran outside.
"I'm stronger!" Applejack yelled as she threw a punch at Rainbow Dash.
"No! I'm stronger!" Rainbow Dash yelled as she threw a punch at Applejack. Raian flew in between them and caught both of their punches effortlessly.
"Stop it you two!" Raian said sternly. Applejack made to throw another punch at Rainbow Dash but Raian caught her hoof and held it firmly. "I... Said... Stop."
Applejack stared into Raian's charcoal eyes and saw that he was getting a little frustrated with her. She pulled her hoof away from Raian and looked at Rainbow Dash.
"Fine. But this isn't over, Rainbow!" Applejack said before she started flying back to Sweet Apple Acres. Rainbow Dash went to fly after her but Raian grabbed her tail and pulled her in front of him and looked her in the eyes.
"You can settle this tomorrow." Raian told Rainbow Dash firmly. Rainbow Dash let out a grunt and mumbled things under her breath as she flew back to her house. Raian merely watched Rainbow Dash fly away and let out a sigh. He couldn't seem to get his mind off of Solaris and Lunalia's return.
"I don't care if you two are a million times stronger than me. I will not let you take over Equestria." Raian said as he stood in the silence of the darkening day. "Do you hear me!? You'll never rule anything as long as I'm standing!"
Raian's confidence in beating Solaris and Lunalia is almost overwhelming. Even after his raging power up, he has still got a ways to go to beat Solaris and Lunalia. He has pushed himself to train at 500 times normal gravity in his base. Raian's going to need all the training he can get if he wants to defeat the Dark Couple and their servants. Can he get strong enough in time, or will he be slaughtered in front of the eyes of his loved ones? Find out in the next exciting episode of Dragon Ball Z!
