Fluttersaiyan
Chapter 24: The End
Previous ChapterChapter 24: The End
I stood in the crater caused by my new transformation, suddenly realizing just exactly what I had become. I turned behind me and looked at Fluttershy, lying on the ground. I slowly walked over to her, took off my blue undershirt, and gently covered her with it.
“I love you too, Fluttershy. I’m sorry.” I said to her. Then I turned and looked at Xendo.
“NO! It’s not possible, i-it can’t be! You, you’re a, a-a, a super saiyan!?” Xendo said from above.
I looked dead into his eyes, savoring every bit of fear on his face. I floated up to him slowly, patiently, enjoying the idea of what was to come.
“I have a promise to keep.” I said lowly.
“Ah! Stay away from me you, you monster!” He shouted in terror.
“Now give me that throat of yours.” I said in a quiet, ominous tone.
I flew at him faster than I thought possible, hitting him square in the throat with my elbow. He flew back holding his throat, coughing violently. I went for more. I began punching him, rapid fire, from his stomach to his face, and everywhere in between. He quickly put his arms up trying to block me, then flying out of range. He flew behind me, trying to kick me in the head, but instead I turned and caught his leg in the crook of my elbow. I brought my other elbow down on his knee as hard as I could, and I heard a cracking sound as I shattered his kneecap. He howled in pain.
“You! You broke my leg! You’ll pay for this!” He screamed in agony.
“No I won’t.” I said as I sent a kick right to his jaw. He flew up and back, flipping in midair. He tried to blast me with an energy orb, but it just hit me in the chest and exploded, having no effect whatsoever. I blasted back with a bigger energy ball. He thought he could deflect it with a backhand, but as soon as he connected, it exploded in a bright flash, and I heard him scream again.
When the smoke cleared he was holding his arm. His glove had been blown off, and part of the sleeve of his uniform, and there was blood trickling down his arm.
“I like that, seeing you bleed.” I said coldly. I rushed at him and roundhouse kicked him three times in the head. While he was stunned holding his nose I flew up over him and kicked him over the head sending him straight for the ground.
He flew through two buildings made of stone before hitting the ground hard. I used the instant transmission to teleport right over him. He quickly looked up behind him to see me above him with both arms outstretched.
“AAAHHH!” I screamed as I poured every ounce of energy into one solid blast. I saw him cover his head with his arms as the giant column of a beam flew straight towards him. Ton after ton of dirt was instantly removed from the area as the beam carved a path through Canterlot. Building after building was hit and slowly fell over into the beam, only to be obliterated and ‘washed away’ completely. After I stopped I flew off towards the end of the colossal trench left behind, finding Xendo lying at the end.
His armor was almost completely destroyed, his uniform torn to shreds, and blood was running out of cuts and wounds all over his body.
“Wait! I-I surrender!” He pleaded.
“Bullshit.” I replied. I grabbed him by the feet and tossed him into the sky. As he sailed into the distance I took off after him. As I caught up with him I began to assault him with more rapid fire punching, attempting to literally beat him to a pulp. I then decided to play my own game of ping pong with him. I slammed him towards the ground, then dashed under him. As he came close to the ground, I kicked him back up into the sky, then chased after him again. The last time I slammed him towards the ground I let him make impact. I saw the small amount of dust thrown up by his body hitting the dirt.
As I flew back down to the ground I saw him attempting to crawl away. I walked over to him and put one of my boots on his back, forcing him back to the ground. I kicked him in the side, flipping him onto his back.
“Please! I-I’m sorry about what I did! I t-truly am! Spare me, and I will serve you, f-for the rest of my days!” He begged weakly.
“Sorry!? SORRY!?” I screamed in his face, grabbing him by the collar of his uniform. “Is sorry gonna bring her back!? Is sorry gonna fix all this mess!? Huh? ANSWER ME!?”
“I’ll, I’ll be your personal slave.” He struggled to say.
I just decided to stop listening and grab his head, then slam his face into my knee repeatedly. I slammed his face into my knee over and over and over, until there was a visible stain of blood on my pants. I held out his head, then kicked him right in the face, throwing him back.
“P-please, just k-kill me already.” He grunted.
“I intend to. But not yet.” I said. I took a few steps back and got into my stance.
“Ka, me, haa, meee, HAAAAA!” I shouted as I thrust my hands forward. The huge beam of energy hit Xendo dead on, like a freight train. The beam ripped through another couple of buildings as it sent Xendo on a ride from hell. When the attack was over I flew straight to where Xendo lied.
Again, he was trying to crawl away, but with much greater difficulty this time. I walked up to him and stomped on his head. I rolled him over. His eyes were shut, and he was breathing heavily, barely clinging to life. I stomped him again in the stomach. He coughed up some blood. Then I stomped him on his chest, right in the ribs. He shouted in pain. I finally kneeled down on one knee and began beating the crap out of him, punching him over and over again. I stopped and looked at him for a while, he was barely breathing now.
I pulled back my fist, ready for one final death blow, ready to end it all. In mid-swing a voice interrupted me.
“That is enough!” I heard Princess Celestia say.
I turned to look at her immediately.
“P-princess Celestia! What are you doing!?” I asked surprised to see her.
“That’s quite enough Dako.” She said walking towards Xendo.
“Princess, he killed her, he deserves to die! I want to kill him!” I shouted at her.
“And you will if you keep going. I can’t let you kill him.” She said sternly.
“But Princess, saiyan nature! He’s only gonna get stronger, and he’ll want revenge!” I said to her.
“He will do no such thing.” She said. “I’m sending him back to where he belongs.”
Xendo tried crawling away still, having just long enough of a break from my beat down to attempt escape. Princess Celestia lowered her horn to Xendo. He looked in confusion and fear. Princess Celestia’s horn began to glow. I looked around for a minute and saw a crowd was forming around us, a crowd of ponies had come to see Princess Celestia deal with him.
“S-stay away from me, you, you vile creature!” He groaned with effort.
Princess Celestia’s horn glowed brighter. There was a flash of light, and Xendo was suddenly gone. Celestia slowly raised her head and sighed. The crowd began cheering.
“Attention everypony! The threat once known as Xendo, is now gone!” She declared. Everyone cheered even louder.
“Well.” I said. “I guess I can rest now.” I sighed and fell out of super saiyan mode.
I heard a voice from the crowd calling my name.
“Dako! Dako!” they called. I turned to see who it was. I saw Twilight’s face among the crowd. She ran out towards me.
“Dako! You did it! You beat him!” Twilight cheered. I fell to my knees and hung my head.
“But, Fluttershy.” I said.
“Dako?” I heard a soft voice call out. The crowd slowly fell silent.
I stood up and looked in the direction of the voice. I saw the rest of the Mane Six walk out of the crowd, and following, was Fluttershy.
“Fluttershy!?” I yelled.
“Dako!” She shouted.
We ran towards each other. She jumped into my arms, and I held her close to me. The crowd began cheering again.
“Fluttershy! I thought I lost you! How are you okay!?” I asked her, tears of happiness now running down my face.
“There was another Senzu bean. It must have fallen out of your uniform when you put your shirt on me.” She said.
“Oh Fluttershy! I’ll never let a single thing happen to you ever again! I promise, and this time I’ll keep it!” I told her.
“I love you Dako!” She said.
“I love you too Fluttershy.” I said to her. We kissed each other, even in front of everyone there.
The crowd suddenly died down. I looked up and looked around. I turned and saw Princess Celestia standing right behind me.
“Princess?” I asked her.
“Are you ready Dako?” she asked.
“Ready for what?” I replied.
“Ready to go home.” She said.
My heart dropped, and almost stopped when she said that. I felt cold.
“What do you mean, “go home”?” I asked.
“Dako. You don’t belong here. Your time in Equestria is up. You must go now.” She answered.
“Oh no, no no, please! Princess! I’m sorry!” I began.
“You don’t need to apologize, it’s time to go.” She said again.
“But, but why?” I asked, my voice breaking.
“Dako, this is not your world. You have to go, just like Xendo.” She said.
“But I, I saved the day! He’s gone now, forever! Everything’s fine!” I pleaded.
“Equestria has been attacked. Canterlot is in ruin, and several ponies have been hurt. This is not your place, saiyans have no business here.” She said coldly.
I fell to my knees, still holding Fluttershy. I hung my head down over her. I hugged her tightly, and began to cry.
“Don’t I at least get to say goodbye?” I sobbed.
“Yes, I’ll let you say your goodbyes.” She said.
I turned and looked at the rest of the Mane Six. Their eyes were full of shock and sadness. I could see tears welling up in their eyes. I looked back down at Fluttershy. I cried even harder. Not only would I leave all of my new friends, but I’d have to leave Fluttershy, who I had just fought for, and even went super saiyan for.
“Guys.” I said weakly. They walked closer to me.
“I have to go now. Will you be okay?” I asked, sniffling.
They all nodded, some of them now had tears streaming. Even Rainbow Dash.
“Come give me a hug, I really need one right now.” I cried.
They all came up to me and hugged me in a huge group hug, I could even feel Fluttershy squeezing me. I looked back down at her, and saw the tears coming from her eyes. Her head was buried in my chest, and her eyes were shut tight as she cried.
“Oh Fluttershy, you know I hate it when you cry. It kills me inside.” I said to her, sobbing.
They were all openly crying. I’ll admit, it was a sobfest, but for good reason. I had to leave them forever.
“Fluttershy?” I asked.
“Yes, Dako?” She said, looking at me with teary eyes.
“I love you. Always remember that. Okay?” I said to her.
“Okay.” She replied.
“One more thing. You’re gonna have to be strong for me, and brave too.” I said in tears, blubbering.
“I will.” She replied.
“Promise?” I asked.
“I promise.” She answered, bawling and whimpering.
I hugged her tightly one more time, then gave her a kiss on the head, and set her down. As I stood up her friends hugged and comforted her. I turned to Princess Celestia, who stood there, unmoved by the whole situation, and the crowd remained silent.
“Are you ready?” She asked.
“I’m ready.” I said, tears running down my face. She tilted her head down, and her horn began to glow.
“I’m sorry Dako, but I warned you. I told you not to fall in love with anyone.” She whispered.
“I know.” I sniffed. “And I’m sorry.”
I shut my eyes tight. There was a bright flash all around me. I slowly opened my eyes, and saw myself standing in the suburb I was in before I left. I dropped to my knees, and began crying loudly. I sat there on the sidewalk holding my head in my hands, bawling. I was interrupted by a familiar voice.
“Dako? Is that, you?” The voice asked.
I looked up to the person. It was one of my friends.
“Dude! It’s you, you’re alive!” The other shouted, the two of them running toward me.
“Hey man, we thought you-. Hey man, what’s up? Why are you crying?” One of them asked.
“Nothing man, it’s nothing I, I’m just glad to be back.” I lied.
“Cool man, we understand.” He said, patting me on the back.
I notice he had a picture of Rainbow Dash on his shirt.
“Is that?” I started.
“What, this? Oh yeah, dude! We started watching the show after you disappeared. We’re bronies too now!” He said.
“When?” I asked confused.
“About a week after you were gone. We thought you were gone gone. So we kinda watched the show in your memory.” He explained.
“Hey, you wanna go watch some mlp right now? Season three started, they’re up to episode four now.” The other said.
“Yeah man.” I replied, wiping my eyes. “I’d love to.”
