What if it wasn't Earth that Goku had been sent to destroy? What if he had landed in Equestria and lost his memories there instead?

We all know the story of the Saiyan Goku and his adventures on Earth after landing to destroy us and getting amnesia. What if he had gone a different direction, though? What if he had gone away from Earth, and instead had been sent to the colorful world that houses Equestria? Goku, landing in the Everfree forest, is found by Zecora, who teaches him how to live among ponies. The pair also attempts to control and train Goku into using his unusual powers. A dark threat looms over Equestria, though, as Discord escapes from his stone prison and brings a new, yet familiar, creature to the land.

Zecora and Goku

Dragonball P

A Kira story

Chapter 1

Zecora and Son Goku

Things had been fairly normal around the Ponyville area thus far into the day, and the Everfree forest was in the same condition. Zecora was normally out gathering herbs, the cauldron was on a warm brew to start a potion to cure her achy joints. This was a bit bothersome, but she had to do it every two weeks or it got very painful. That was part of the reason why she lived so far away from Ponyville- the herbs she needed only grew in a specific part of the forest.

As she wandered about on this particular day, however, she began to feel something very unfamiliar. She knew the magical 'feel' of everything in these woods, but this was just very different. It was a strong feeling, off the charts powerful. Still, she brushed to the side of her attention and continued looking for the wamparoot plant she needed.

She stumbled across a patch rather quickly, but to her surprise, most of it was just a crater with a couple of scorch marks around it. Suddenly, she sensed the same thing she had before, but this time it was closer, and getting closer still. She looked around and got battle ready, preparing for the worst of the worst. She'd felt an Ursa Major's magical presence, and it had nothing on this. There was a ruffling in the brush next to her and she turned to see... Actually, she wasn't sure. It was small, pale, walked on two legs, and had a large mane. It also had hands, a rarity in Equestria. Despite its powerful presence, it looked frail and weak, like a child.

"Who is this strange creature I see? Do you come here for war, or peacefully?" Zecora asked.

"I could ask the same thing to you." It said. She noted the high voice. It was most definitely a child.

"Tell me, what is your name, oh tiny little one?" She asked him tenderly. "As we speak, follow me, so into fowl creatures you don't run."

"Uh... I don't really know." It said as they walked. "I don't really remember much at all, actually. I just woke up in here a little while ago and have been walking around."

"I know of a place so far away, where the ponies have different words they say. A name for you I shall decide, using their language as a guide." Zecora promised. She decide to use a foreign language to name him, at least temporarily, to keep her from becoming attached to him. As far as she knew, he was simply an animal. She even noted a monkey-like tail on his nude body.

Goku she thought, not thinking in rhyme Many didn't realize that she . Aware of emptiness, I believe it means. He is aware of his amnesia, whereas most wouldn't be. This is unusual.

"The name I picked is Son Goku, a name rather suitable for you." She said. Her hut came into view, but Goku just walked along quietly. After reaching the house, the pair stood outside as Goku began to barrage her with questions.

"What's your name?"
"What kind of animal are you?"
"Why did you pick that name?"
"Why do you have a sun on your butt?"

But the most prominent and meaningful question was his final on. He looked up into her eyes and asked "What do I do now?"

The question perplexed Zecora. She had no clue as to what was going to happen to the child. She didn't even know what kind of creature it was. The only thing she could think to do was raise it on her own. It was a child, and most likely would have survived much longer in the forest if she hadn't found him. As well, she wanted to investigate that powerful essence he seemed to be emitting.

"Little child, you'll stay with me, I'll teach how to be with ponies." Zecora said.

"Ponies, huh?" Goku said. "Okay, sure. Why not?"

Suddenly, Goku's face scrunched up and he inhaled deeply. I light started to form on his hands, and as he released a sneeze a large blast of energy shot out of either hand. One blasted a tree to bits and the other hit the ground,. causing a crater that looked exactly like the one Zecora had seen earlier.

"Little Goku, what was that thing? What was that burst that made my ears ring?" Zecora asked, stepping back partly in fear and partly in readiness to dodge another blast.

"Sorry, I had to sneeze." Goku said, as if that explained everything.

"It seems you have power beyond your size. Such power many fail to recognize." Zecora said. It was true, many wouldn't see Goku as powerful. However, now it was more important than ever to raise him correctly- the wrong influence could have devastating results.

"Oh, yeah, that." Goku said, just realizing what she was talking about. "Yeah, I can do that whenever I really want. I'm not sure why, but I kinda already knew how when I woke up. It's like breathing, but more tiring."

"I see you r reign on this power is loose. Some order we must introduce." Zecora said, finally opening the door to the hut. "I'll train you in ways of life and magic, and prevent your powers from causing an accident so tragic."

"Yeah, it's pretty annoying to have those thing come out of me when I sneeze." Goku said. "It's kind of cool, but still pretty annoying."

Goku shivered with a breeze flowing through, and Zecora noticed.

"Come child, let's get you dressed. From there, we'll take care of the rest." she said, guiding him inside.

In a royal garden, far away from the forest the two were in, a large stone statue began to rock back and forth. There had been a power surge of energy somewhere far off, followed by a few more in the minutes that passed. None of the guard ponies saw, but the shock wave from the blast put a small hairline fracture in the statue. That was enough, though. Discord was crafty and patient. He slowly shook back and forth, every shake opening the crack half a millimeter more. The only thing fully opened was his eyes, which could see everything around him. He looked into the chaos and saw in the distance a small figure blasting energy out of it's hands. He was the one responsible for this crack. Discord would have to thank him when he got out.

Author's Note

Jesus Christ, it's hard to rhyme that much. It's also hard to make a reason why Goku's name is Japanese when there is no Japan in the Equestrian world. IT'S DIFFICULT!

So, short first chapter, but the rest will be longer on average. The chapter titles will be based on the anime episode titles.

Anyways, this fic starts off at an alternate version of Dragonball, not Dragonball Z. Goku is a child and has no clue as to what his powers really are. I try to refrain from Zecora calling his powerful presence a high power level, but it will happen eventually, I guarantee that. If it sucks, deal with it. I don't care about any of you anyways. Except you. Yes, you, the one reading this right now. You specifically. The rest are garbage.
