Hi everyone I have caught the My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic virus so now I become obsessed with the show and what better way to pay tribute to the wonderful ponies than by making a crossover with my favorite anime character Gohan. This is the first of many fanfics that I will be writing but I have decided that there will be no more than 2 fanfics being worked on at the same time that way I will be more obligated to work on them multiple times each week. Also seeing how this is a M-rated story I will need someone's help later to make a lemon as I do not have the creativity to make a good lemon scene. If you would like to help create the lemon tell me in a private message not a review. If I find someone to write the lemon but you would like to help in another story let me know to and I will gladly let you assist me with full credit going to you. Anyway on with the story.

Oh yeah this is how the writing will be:

Dialogue between characters

My little Gohan

Location: Mountain Region

Things have been rough for Gohan since the end of the Cell games. His friends abandoned him, his mother disowned him, and all of them were now hunting him down. But why...?

Was the mistake he made really so bad? He wanted to make Cell pay for hurting his friends and for all the people he absorbed. He was driven by his Saiyan instincts to fight and his own emotional fury. Was any of the other Z-fighters really any better.

Vegeta killed many during his first visit to earth and never apologized or felt bad about it afterward. Piccolo himself used to be the demon king and slaughtered many in his quest for power.

So why was he being punished for unintentionally causing the death of only one person...his own father? How was he to know that cell would self-destruct.

These are the questions that ran through Gohan's mind as he ran as fast as he could into the mountains. The only person who did not hate him was Bulma who did not blame Gohan for Goku's death. She had even helped Gohan escape from the other Z-fighters who were hunted him down like a rabbit chased by the wolves.

Before Gohan ran Bulma has given him two things to aid him in his escape. A watch that could mask his ki signature completely, and the dragon radar. These 2 items were the only thing keeping him alive and he was determined not to lose either one of them.

But why had she given him the Dragon radar...did she think that Gohan could use Shenron to bring Goku back to life. Didn't she know that Goku didn't want to be brought back after they had tried the first time?

Whatever the case Gohan knew that he had to keep moving with the Dragonballs that he had collected, only one more and he could summon the Dragon.

/ I...have to keep moving!/ thought Gohan as he picked up as much speed as his legs would give him, but he was tired and badly starving. / The ball is close... just have to keep going/

Slowing down to rest on a small boulder he caught his breath and studied the Dragon radar. "Alright where is the last ball?" Gohan asked himself while breathing heavily. The Dragon radar beeped rapidly and showed a large glow on it's surface. "It's close I can feel it!"

Jumping up from the stone Gohan examined the area he was in trying to find the location of the ball. It was starting to get dark so he needed to hurry, every minute he spent looking for the ball was another minute his ex-friends had to find him and he didn't want to find out what they would do if they did manage to catch up to them.

After crawling around the mountain for a few minute he noticed a faint glow coming from a small stream. He walked up to the water and peered into it's shimmering surface. Sure enough at the bottom of the stream was magic ball that he had been searching for. Quickly recovering the ball he started running to find a clearing that he could summon the Dragon in.

Something bothered him though, everything seemed like it was too easy. Running up the mountain he found the clearing that he need and he got to work positioning the balls to summon Shenron. The bad feeling came back stronger than ever but that gave him and even better reason to work as fast as he could.

After Gohan put the last ball in it's place he yelled in a dry and raspy voice "ARISE SHENRON!"

The balls emitted a golden glow as the the pulled themselves close together and shot a massive pillar of light into the sky. The light continued climbing higher and higher until it twisted and curved in a snake light fashion until the almighty dragon Shenron was formed.

A new sense of hope welled up inside Gohan as he heard the Dragon speak the typical greeting it gave all who summoned him. "Who awakens me from my eternal slumber!" spoke Shenron in his booming voice.

Gohan feeling intimidated but at the same time awestruck responded "It's me Gohan, will you please grant my wish?"

Shenron recognized Gohan ask he was atop Kami's lookout just a few short weeks ago when he was summoned to return Goku back to life. "Very well human...Speak your wish now!"

Gohan was grateful but he didn't know what to wish for. Gohan decided to ask again if Goku would return from the afterlife but before he could speak his wish he felt multiple energies that he knew all to well.

"If it isn't our old friend Gohan, Cause any one else to die today?" spoke the condescendingvoice of the Saiyan Prince Vegeta. Turning around Gohan could see all of his former friends staring at him with angry but undecided looks on their faces.

"So which of you would like to have the first crack at him?, What about you Krillin?" Krillin didn't respond but only looked away from Vegeta's smirking gaze. "Don't have the stomach for it baldy...What about you Namek?" just the same as Krillin, Piccolo could only look away. "No takers from you two either?" said Vegeta, referring to both Yamcha and Tien. Neither one of them made any notion of moving. Vegeta laughed "So I'm the only one who has the guts to do what we all decided was best, am I the only one here worthy of being called a warrior!"

None of them looked him in the face or even at Gohan, it seemed as if even if they were angry at him they still didn't think he deserved to be tortured like Vegeta wanted him to. "Well fine seeing has all of you left your balls at home I'll just finish him myself!" Vegeta yelled as he charged up his Gallick Gun.

Gohan knew that his wish was his only chance for survival, but he had to think quick. "Dragon, I wish for you to send me as far away from earth as possible, so far that no one here could ever find me." Yelled Gohan with anger, and fear in his eyes. The Dragon's eyes glowed as Vegeta had released his attack.

Gohan feared for the worst had threw his arms over his face to prepare for the incoming attack. Strangely the attack never made contact, but he felt as if he was moving faster than light through a dark void. Opening his eyes he gasped loudly as he could see that he was moving though space and time covered in a Golden aura.

"Gohan...Do you hear my voice?" a voice that Gohan recognized as Shenron's spoke. Gazing in front of him he realized that the Golden aura was in fact the almighty dragon himself guiding him through the universe.

"Gohan you have wished to be taken as far away from the planet earth as possible within my power, to make sure that no one can follow you I must take you through dimensions personally, but beware where you are going is not hazard free, there will be many hardships in your journey." spoke Shenron increasing the speed of his flying.

Gohan did not care he had nothing to go back to so it didn't matter how hard things would be for him in his new home.

"One last thing Gohan...This dimension will change you body but do not be afraid this change is to ensure that you do not disrupt the order of the world."

Gohan was confused how would his body be changed and what did this mean for his power. Would it be taken from him or would he remain the same. The answers to these questions would come in time but for now he decided to rest for the remainder of his journey, days of scars and bruises had collected on his body and not once had he stop to sleep since he ran away.

As he eyes closed cuddled into a ball on Shenron's back as tears flowed from his eyes. For once in his immortal life Shenron actually felt bad for the young half-saiyan.

Location: Equestria

"Come on Spike we are late to Pinky Pie's party" said a young violet pony running as fast ask her hooves could take her. A small dragon followed behind her. "It's not my fault you wanted to clean the entire library again Twilight." said Spike as he ran behind the pony known as Twilight Sparkle. They increased their speed as they were getting close to Pinky Pie's house. "Hey Twilight look up at the sky isn't it too early in the day for a meteor shower?" Twilight was confused but skidded to a halt and looked where Spike had pointed to. "What do you mean meteor Sho..." her voice caught in her throat as the sky turned in a beautiful shade of gold and meteorites flew through the air.

/Something isn't right here we weren't scheduled for a meteor shower and If we were I would have know about it!/ Twilight thought as she scratched her mane.

The meteorites increased their number and started moving faster and faster until like a rocket one of the flying rocks fell from the sky and crash landed right into the Everfree forest.

"Oh my gosh Spike did you just see that!" Twilight screamed with a shocked look on her face. Spike looked at her for a moment and said "Well it was just a flying rock no reason to miss the party right?"

Twilight looked at him with a unamused face. "Spike what if that meteorite hit some creature in the forest, I think we should go check it out." Spike groaned but knew that when Twilight decided to do something there was no talking her out of it.

"Can't we at least get the other to help us search for it?" spike asked saddened that he wasn't going to be able to party till after the job was done.

Twilight nodded and told him gather everyone at the entrance to the Everfree forest.

-15 minutes later-

Twilight was getting excited to find where the meteorite had landed for a couple of reasons. One reason was that not many objects from space get to be studied by pony kind and another thing was that meteorites are thought to be very magical and could help her train her magic abilities better.

Her exited thoughts were interrupted as spike bounced up the hill with all of her friends close behind. Spike had brought Applejack,Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, and lastly Fluttershy who was looking a bit worried about going into the Everfree forest.

"So Twi what this here talk about a meteor crashing into the forest?" spoke Applejack in her usual farm-girl accent.

"Isn't it exiting it just crashed down about twenty minutes ago" said Twilight grinning from ear to ear. Fluttershy was nervous about the damage the meteorite might have caused "I hope none of the animals in the forest got hurt by it"

Rainbow Dash put on a mischievous face and tried to scare Fluttershy. "Well if any of the animals did get hit by hit it's probrably too late to save them because they are as flat as pancakes now!" Rainbow Dash joked as she clapped her hooves together like something was getting smooshed.

Fluttershy looked at the ground sadly as the other ponies shot rainbow dash a disapproving look. Pinkie Pie who was usually the last one to put 2 and 2 together hid inside a log.

Twilight Sparkle looked at her worriedly and asked "Um.. Pinkie Pie what in the world are you doing?" Pinkie Pie poked her head out from the log and started yelling about the sky falling. "You said it yourself Twilight the stars are flying out of the sky and they will crush us all!"

Twilight looked at her amused. "Pinkie the stars aren't falling out of the sky it just means that a meteorite didn't burn up in the atmosphere so there is still a chunk a rock somewhere around here."

Rarity looked disgusted at the idea of finding a rock. " You mean we all left a nice party just to help you find a dirty space rock?" Twilight looked at her and explained "It's not just a space rock, my books says that meteorites are made out of star energy which means that they could help me train my magic."

Applejack jumped to the front of the other ponies and said "Well we won't get anywhere just standing around her like a bundle of hay now let's get going."

Following AppleJack's lead they all followed her into the forest and started looking for the meteorite. "If we split up we can cover more ground." said Twilight.

As the ponies separated through the forest Fluttershy started looking for animals that might have been hurt by the flying rock. "Um... little animals are you here? If you are hurt then I could help fix you up I have a first aid kit with me."

The only thing she could hear through the forest was the eery silence that was always there. She continued walking through the forest checking as much as she could for any injured animals. She couldn't hear the sounds of the other ponies anymore so she decided that she had wondered to far in and it was time for her to turn around.

But before she could leave the smell of burning rock caught her nose and she turned to the source of the smell. It was a jagged rock about 10 times as big as she was. She let out a breath of relief as she could tell that the only thing that was injured by the rock was a few trees and the ground itself.

She was about to yell out to let her friends know that she had found the rock but before she let out a sound she heard a noise. She slowly walked around the rock as the noise started getting louder but at the same time still muffled.

After walking towards the other side of the rock she noticed that the sound was coming from a pile of branches that were knocked down from the impact. "Oh no a poor little animal must be buried underneath all those branches!" she gasped and started pulling branches off of the pile.

As more and more branches were pulled off of the pile she could start to see purple fur. She kept pulling as the branches were getting heavier and by the time she pulled the last branch off she was out of breath and panting on the ground.

After catching her breath she decided to see what exactly was caught underneath the pile of sticks. Surprisingly it wasn't a small animal like she had thought...it was another Pegasus pony just like her. The new pony had a purple coat with a black mane, but the thing that amazed her the most was the wings that were on his back. They were a beautiful shade of gold that shimmered in the day light.

Her amazement ceased however when she saw the long bleeding scar that ran up the pony's chest. Fearing for the worst she screamed out to her friends to come to her. As the sound a galloping hooves came closer the voice of Applejack rang out through the forest and asked "Fluttershy are you okay?"

Fluttershy looked at her friends with small tears in her eyes and tried to from words. "I...I'm okay, but...he's not!" The other ponies looked at the unknown pony on the ground at asked what had happened to him. Fluttershy told them that she had found him under a pile of branches and that she thinks he was hit by the meteorite.

Twilight Sparkle face turned serious as she turned to spike and said "Spike send a letter to Princess Celestia and tell her that we need a chariot and some doctor's ready to fix him up."

Spike did as he was told and sure enough about as fast as he sent it a chariot with none other than the Princess herself pulled up in front of the ponies. "My dearest Twilight what has happened here?" asked the princess shock clearly on her face. Twilight looked at her and said "We think he was hit by this meteorite that fell from the sky today."

Celestia looked at her confused "I did not realize we were scheduled for a meteor shower today."

The other ponies shrugged as the princess continued "it does not matter now, all that does matter is that we get this young pony some help."

The princess's guards loaded the young pony into the chariot and sped off as fast as the could for the castle not noticing that the cutie mark on the young pony flank was the image of a glowing ball with stars on it.

---

To say that Fluttershy was nervous would be a understatement. Just a few short hours ago she went from having a good time with her friends at a party, to finding a injured pony in the Everfree forest.

But who was this pony and why did no one seem to know him. Even Princess Celestia had no idea who or where this pony had come from. The one thing that they did know was that the poor boy had numerous scars that looked old so whatever happened to him was not caused by the falling meteorite.

Princess Celestia had been kind enough to allow them to stay at her castle until the matter had been resolved. Looking at the room she and her friends were staying in, Fluttershy could tell everyone was fast asleep as the sound of soft snores filled the air.

It had been a strange day for them so it wasn't hard to believe that they would be tired. Something pulled at the back of her mind though.

Something was telling her to get out of her bed and visit the mysterious pony in the hospital ward of the castle. Slowly getting out of her bed as quietly as she could so she wouldn't disturb her friends she walked over to the door and exited the room.

Walking through the various hallways of the castle she soon found herself at the destination she was looking for. Walking in she noticed that it was dark all except for a small candle against the window. Seeing as no one was in the room she slowly moved closer to the bed with the room's lone occupant.

Lying in the small white bed was the injured pony. Fluttershy noticed that all of his wounds had been dressed by the hospital staff and she could also see a lot of ointment had been rubbed into his skin to keep the areas from being infected.

"Oh you poor little thing, who did this to you?" she asked once again as tears started to from in her eyes.

She felt like embracing him into the tightest hug she could possibly give and never letting him go. She could see that his sleep was not a peaceful one due to the pained look on his face and knew that in the night air her must have been freezing.

Looking over to the table beside the bed she noticed that there was a blanket laying neatly folded right on top of it. Reaching up with her hooves she picked up the blanket and softly laid it on the sleeping pony. She could tell that it helped because almost at once his shivering stopped and his face softened up a bit.

"There you go little one, I hope you get better soon." she softly said to him and leaned down to kiss his forehead.

As soon as her lips made contact she heard a creak behind her and drew back fast to observe who had just entered. Standing in her own majestic light was the Princess herself.

"Have you come to check on the guest Fluttershy?" Princess Celestia asked with a small smile on her face.

"Um..he looked cold so I put a blanket on him to warm him up." Fluttershy tried to explain looking down with a small blush getting redder on her face.

The princess gave a small chuckle and wrapped the smaller pony into a embrace "It's okay Fluttershy, it is only natural to care for those who are unable to help themselves."

Celestia glanced over at the bed and remembered the horrible scars the covered the young pony's body.

Anger welled up inside her as she thought about the monsters that would dare harm such a young pony.

"Princess...do you think that he will be okay?" Fluttershy asked trying to wipe the remaining tears that were threatening to run down her face.

"Only time will tell Fluttershy, the only thing we can do now is allow him to rest and pray that he soon awakens." Princess Celestia then stared out the window. "I'm worried though, scars like those would not have been made easy and not only is there physical scars but I can guarantee the mental scars he carries are far greater." she finished and lowered her head.

Fluttershy face darkened thinking of the pain that poor pony must have gone through.

"Princess I would like to stay at the castle until he wakes up." Fluttershy said while staring at their new guest.

Princess Celestia turned from her spot at the window confused. "You mean you want to stay and take care of him for as long as it takes for him to awaken, what about all of your animals back home who will take care of them?"

"Spike could take care of them while I am here, that would let me keep and eye on him and let you know if he wakes up!" Fluttershy spoke sounding exited to be the one taking care of the injured pony.

Princess Celestia thought about it for a minute. Knowing her busy schedule she would not be able to keep checking to see how he was doing, and Fluttershy was the best pony qualified for taking care of animals but how would she do against another pony?

"Alright Fluttershy I will make it your personal job to watch over our guest, but know now this will not be like one of you small animal friends taking care of another pony is serious business." Celestia spoke almost grinning at how eager Fluttershy was to take care if him.

"Oh thank you princess, I promise you I won't fail!" Fluttershy said saluting a hoof to her head.

The princess laughed at the young pony's antics and left to prepare to welcome the day, leaving Fluttershy alone in the room.

Letting out a small yawn, she finally decided that it was time to return to her room for a few well deserved hours of rest. Looking over at the sleeping pony she walked over and kissed his forehead yet again. "Alright I will be back soon to take care of you so wait for me to come back." she whispered as if expecting a reply from him.

As she walked back into her room and climbed back into bed,sleep came easily for her...the same could not be said for the injured pony.

(Location: Gohan's mind)

The landscape of Gohan's mind was filled with many tall but destroyed building. He was using one of the many buildings to hide himself from the things that pursued him. Alone he sat in the dark catching his breath.

Suddenly before he could blink the roof was ripped off and the loud laughter of his greatest foe...the bio-android Cell rang out through the air. Cell had manifested himself as a giant which only served to cause Gohan to cower in fear.

"Did you really think you could ever defeat me you half-saiyan whelp?" taunted cell smashing his hand into the rest of the building in which Gohan barely managed to fly away from.

Gohan quickly flew away from the psycho android as he tried to find yet another place to hide from him. Before he could even find a place the ground below him exploded and a large gloved hand snatch him from the air and tightly squeezed him.

Gasping for air Gohan could only stare in horror as the face of the saiyan prince Vegeta rose from the gigantic crater in the ground and sneered at him.

"Running away from your enemies are you brat?" His voice rang in disgust "You are nothing but a disgrace to all saiyans everywhere!"

Gohan could feel the air leave his lungs as the hand tightened even more causing blood to shoot out of his mouth. Both Cell and Vegeta continued to taunt him as he could feel his life slowly slipping away.

He could no longer hear their words, which could only mean that his end was soon coming and decided to give in and not fight back any longer. At least the pain would stop.

But to his surprise everything went silent and the tightness he felt around his bodies eased away. Opening his eyes he could see the brightest light shine through the air.

It continued to move close to him until it was only a few feet in front of him. Inside of the light was a beautiful angel with the most lovely wings he had ever seen.

The light that covered this angel slowly warmed his cold body. He was just about to ask her name, but she had spoke to him before he could even begin to find the right words.

"Oh you poor little thing, who did this to you?" the angel asked in a soft voice.

Just the voice alone made him feel safe. He tried to stand but his body ached from exhaustion and he fell right back down to the ground giving a grunt of pain.

The angel embraced him and softly stroked his hair. "There you go little one, I hope you get better soon." she whispered to him placing a loving kiss to his forehead.

After a few minutes of her loving embrace Gohan felt his eyes drop as he fell fast asleep in her arms.

The angel smiled as she layed him down softly on the ground "Alright I will be back soon to take care of you so wait for me to come back."

Spreading her wings and flew away leaving Gohan in a relaxed slumber, the first he has had in days.

(Exit Gohan's mind)

Just like everyday Princess Celestia had raised the sun to welcome the day and had relieved her sister from duty.

It was now time to see Twilight Sparkle and her friends off for the trip back home. Walking into the room that had been reserved for them she noticed that all of the beds were empty, but all of their things remained in their place.

"That's strange, now where could they be?" she asked but had a hunch she knew where they were located. Sure enough she could hear all of their voices coming from the hospital wing and chuckled softly.

Inside the wing all the ponies were conversing about the new pony and Fluttershy's new job.

"So you are really gonna stay here until he wakes up?" asked Twilight with a confused look on her face.

Fluttershy smiled while wiping the pony's face with a cool washcloth "Oh yes the princess is way to busy to keep an eye on him so I decided that I would use my skill for caring for animals to nurse him back to health."

Applejack looked at her very seriously "Surgarcube are you sure that you can handle this, I mean this isn't one of your little critters this is a full grown pony like you and me."

Fluttershy was about to answer when Celestia once again stepped inside.

"I'm sure she will do just fine Applejack, she seems to be doing a splendid job already." said the princess noticing the blush on Fluttershy's face.

"The Princess offered to let me stay here for as long as it takes to make him better." Fluttershy nervously said getting red as a tomato.

Pinkie Pie started bouncing around the room excitedly "Oh my gosh Fluttershy you are so lucky to be able to stay at the castle does this mean you get royal meals, royal baths, royal candy, and royal treatment?"

Fluttershy giggled as her pink friend started imagining all kinds of special treatment that she could have. But she wasn't looking for any special treatment, all she cared about was helping others.

"Fluttershy will be entitled to special guest treatment while she remains here" Celestia spoke hoping to answer all of Pinky Pie's questions.

The princess turned to the small dragon who had been staring out of the tall window that overlooked the ground outside. "Now Spike can I count on you to take care of Fluttershy's animals while she is here?"

Spike turned away from the window and gave Celestia the thumbs up sign and responded "Don't worry Fluttershy you animals will be safe will me."

Fluttershy thanked him and prepared to see her friends off at the front gates. They all exchanged hugs and boarded the chariot bound for Ponyville.

Just has the Pegasus ponies were about to take off Rarity let out a loud scream.

" Ouch Rarity what is your damage?" yelled Rainbow Dash rubbing he ears with her hooves.

Rarity couldn't even bring herself to speak as she pointed her hoof at the familiar window at the top of the castle. They all looked up and could see the reason for her scream. The pony that they had found had somehow fallen out of the window and was plummeting towards the ground!

"Oh my Gosh Fluttershy let's go!" Rainbow Dash yelled as she sped off towards the falling pony.

(Gohan's POV)

I found myself waking up in a place I didn't recognize, my skin was burning up as I slowly stood up out of the bed and landed on the floor. As soon as I hit the floor I noticed something was way off.

My body felt way smaller than it used to be and I could feel a strange heaviness on my back. I tried crawling over to the mirror on the wall near the window as my eyes had not adjusted enough for me to walk on my own two feet.

Again a uneasy feeling washed over my as my hands and feet felt strangely stiff and clumped together as if they had swollen together. I was feeling sick to my stomach as I haven't eaten or drank anything in at least a day and a half.

Finally I had managed to get pulled myself over to the mirror and waited for my eyes to adjust to the lighting of the room. As soon as I could see well enough to get a decent view of myself my breath caught itself in my throat.

Staring back at me from the mirror wasn't me like I was expecting but a pony with a purple coat and a black mane. Backing up I watched as the mirror pony mimicked my movements. Looking down I realized that it wasn't a illusion I had somehow turned into a four legged pony.

Was this what Shenron meant by I would take a different form in this dimension? My head was spinning as the heat in my body became unbearable. The only thing I could think of at the moment was to find fresh air as I walked toward the window and pushed it open with my newly acquired hoof.

I tried to breath deeply as the heat kept getting worse and I started to feel light headed. The hotness of my body was more than I could bear as I collapsed over the window and started falling with great speed to the ground.

The last thing I could hear before blacking out again was the yell of a female and the sound of wings flapping rapidly towards me.

(Normal POV)

Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash flew with great speed to recover the falling pony. They had managed to grab hold of his hooves only inches away from the ground and softly placed him on the ground right next to a fountain.

Fluttershy noticed that his skin felt like a oven and ran to the fountain to obtain some water to cool him down. Rainbow Dash could tell he was in pain by the moans that were slowly coming from his throat and felt bad for him.

Seconds later Fluttershy returned with a big bucket of water and sprinkled some over his face to cool him down.

Celestia had seen the incident and came galloping over to them. "Girls what happened?" she asked shock and concern spread over her face.

Fluttershy looked up and said "Somehow he must have gotten out of bed and opened the window". She rubbed some water over his forehead and used her wings to block the sun from beating down on him.

Celestia thought long and hard before calling Twilight sparkle over to her.

"Twilight do you think you could cast a spell that would cool him down?" she asked not looking away from Fluttershy.

Twilight Sparkle nodded and began to concentrate her horn glowing showing that she was casting a spell.

A blue aura covered the burning pony and soon his body had become cool and his moans of pain had stopped as well.

"There that should keep him cool for awhile" said Twilight exhausted from her heavy concentration.

Fluttershy continued to rub water on his forehead to calm him down relieved that his temperature had started returning to normal. The other ponies started to gather around Fluttershy to observe how things were progressing.

None of them said a word as Fluttershy continued her treatment. When she was out of water she sat and watched him for awhile waiting for something...anything to happen. Her prayers were soon answered as he started to stir and lifted his head up with heavy eyes.

"Can you hear me little guy?" Fluttershy quietly asked not wanting to spook him. He stayed quiet for a few minutes and Fluttershy was worried that he didn't want to speak to her. Sitting up from the spot he was in Gohan slowly looked her in the eye.

"Um...Yes I can hear you" he whispered feeling a bit shy with so many people watching him. Fluttershy became happy as she had finally gotten through to him. Princess Celestia decided to try and talk to him as well.

"Can you please tell us what your name is, young sir?" she asked just as quietly as Fluttershy.

Gohan looked at her for a minute and blushed lightly " Um... my name is Go...Gohan"

The Princess looked pleased as Gohan stared at his hooves waiting for another question.

It was AppleJack's turn for a question as she shuffled up to Gohan slowly but friendly. "So can you tell us what happened to ya and why you look so banged up."

Gohan didn't know how to answer that question. How could he tell them everything that happened to him, and how he magically became a pony. But he couldn't just tell them nothing so he decided to give them a extremely short version of his story.

"I was chased away from home by evil monsters." he said his voice cracking and small tears forming in his eyes.

They could all tell that there was more to his story but was also very painful for him to explain to them so they didn't press him on the issue. Wiping his face with his hoof Gohan tried to stand on his legs but a flash of pain sent him crashing face first into the ground.

Fluttershy quickly moved to his side and tried to help him stand.

Princess Celestia knew that he would not be able to move on his own so she called for her guards to bring a stretcher to help carry Gohan back into the hospital room. The guards quickly loaded him up and carried him with great speed to his destination.

"That poor pony looked so pitiful." said Applejack a frown showing on her face. The rest of the ponies sadly agreed and looked to the princess for advice.

Celestia was troubled by the response Gohan had given them but knew she had to keep a level head for all of their sakes. She turned to the other and gave a forced smile "Alright everyone I know there is a lot going on right now but we need to get you on your way."

The other ponies groaned in complaint but knew that she was right and they all had their own business to attend to.

"Alright Fluttershy are you sure that you can take care of him without any help?" Twilight asked concerned about both of their well-being.

Fluttershy was nervous but at the same time determined. She had finally learned something about her new friend and was eager to speak to him more.

"Don't worry about me Twilight, I can't wait to learn more about him!" she said giving her friends her widest smile.

Rainbow Dash couldn't help but laugh at her "Look out everyone Fluttershy has a crush!"

Fluttershy stop smiling and started chasing after Rainbow Dash blushing furiously "I DO NOT!"

The only ponies could only laugh as they continued their antics. Eventually it was time to go so Fluttershy said goodbye to her friends as their made their journey back home.

Princess Celestia and Fluttershy now stood alone at the gates both thinking about Gohan.

"Well Fluttershy I think it's about time for you to perform your duties and checkup on our newly awakened friend." said Celestia still holding her graceful smile.

"Oh yes princess I will be on my way now thank you for allowing me to stay" squeaked Fluttershy as she galloped away.

As the princess watched her young friend retreat into the castle she couldn't help but think to herself.

"Don't worry Fluttershy you are not the only one who has a crush." she grinned and followed her into the castle.

(With Gohan)

Gohan had found himself back into the bed in which he woke up from, his body felt loads better than earlier that day. His fever had left him, he only had slight aches, and he at least knew that the people that surrounded him were at least friendly.

His thoughts were interrupted as the door creaked open and in walked the pony that was brushing his head with water.

"I just came to check on you again, Gohan." she said and walked next to his bed.

He looked her over for the first time and blushed. She was really cute for a pony with her pink mane, and yellow coat. He realized that he didn't even know her name and knew that when you tell someone your name than you should at least learn theirs in return.

"Could you please tell me your name so I can thank you properly?" he said with a soft smile on his face.

Seeing him smile made her happy inside as it was way better than the painful look that was on his face before.

"I'm Fluttershy, and you don't have to thank me, I couldn't just leave you there."

Gohan could see how shy she was so he tried to change the subject.

"If you don't mind me asking but can you tell me where I am?" he asked as he had no idea where this room was.

"You are in Equestria in Princess Celestia's castle." Fluttershy answered and gave him a shy smile. He was surprised someone of noble blood was willing to keep him in a royal hospital.

"The Princess has allowed me to take special care of you until you are well enough to take care of yourself." she continued a look of pride on her face saying that she has taken her job seriously.

Gohan was grateful, he had almost forgotten how kind someone could be and from a talking pony no less. He silently thanked Shenron for taking him to such a kind place.

"Could you please thank the Princess for me, I don't want to seem rude to my saviors?" he asked hoping to make a good impression.

Before Fluttershy could give him an answer Princess Celestia answered for her walking in room.

"Think nothing of it my new little friend." she spoke warmly to him.

Gohan tried to get up to bow to her but was stopped by her hoof gently pressing him back down to the bed.

"Please don't stress yourself Gohan, you still are not well enough to be out of bed." she warned "you gave us quiet the scare today with your little window stunt."

Gohan frowned and stared at the ground "I'm really sorry your highness I didn't mean to worry anybody."

Princess Celestia felt bad for him, she could tell that he didn't try to cause them trouble.

"It's alright young one, no one is here to blame or accuse you of wrongdoing." she told him placing her hoof against his mane and softly rubbed it.

Gohan felt his face get warm has both Fluttershy and Princess Celestia gathered around his bed. They were both concerned with him and wanted to make sure he was comfortable enough.

Their conversation was interrupted by a loud rumbling sound piercing the air around them. Fluttershy looked all around confused and startled at such a loud sound.

"What in the world was that?" she asked wide-eyed.

Gohan looked embarrased and started rubbing the back of his head with his hoof "Sorry I haven't eaten in a few days so my stomach is empty."

Both Fluttershy and Celestia were speechless as the had never hear such a sound before. All three of them stayed silent for a few minutes until a new sound started filling the air.

Looking over at the two female ponies Gohan could see that the princess was doubled over laughing.

Fluttershy was worried as she had never seen the princess so filled with giggles. Both Fluttershy and Gohan could only stare as the princess continued to laugh until after a few minutes her laughs shortened down into giggles.

"I'm sorry Gohan...I didn't mean to laugh...but that was just so funny." she help her hoof to her mouth and tried to quiet down her giggles.

Calling out for her guards she instructed them to send an order to the chef's to send a cart of food up to the room. In no less than ten minutes a large cart of different apple based foods filled it to the top.

"Well Gohan I think this will be sufficient to fill the void in your belly." grinned Celestia grabbing a cupcake of the cart and lightly snack on it.

Gohan looked at the cart with wonder as the smell of apples filled his nose making his mouth water. Not giving it a second thought he started devouring the stack cart, easily emptying it in a few short minutes.

Both Celestia smiled as she could tell that he enjoyed his meal, while Fluttershy could only stare wide-eyed as the cart that would have taken four ponies to eat was easily devoured by her new friend.

"Well it looks like the chefs will have to do a lot more shopping if we are to keep our new friends happy." Princess Celestia said while sipping on her tea.

Gohan only sat there and grinned.

End of Chapter 2.

Well here you go everybody I promised that I would have chapter 2 out and I delivered. The action will start picking up soon but I want to give Gohan some recovery time and some time to get to know his new friends. Remember to vote on the poll on my profile and review the story. Thank you and have a nice day.

Greeting everyone I would like to take some time to clear things up a bit about the set-up of the story. First of all I don't hate any of the Z-warriors. If you notice in the first chapter right before Gohan makes his wish, everyone except Vegeta were starting to feel bad about what they were trying to do. That doesn't mean that I won't have them patch things up, it just was to show how when face with a great loss the best choices are not always made to cope with it. Secondly I have decided that my stories are going to be Gohan crossover's. I noticed lately that almost every single Gohan crossover on this site has gone unfinished and abandoned. So as I way to fix this problem I would like for you the readers to send me some crossover idea's. Try to give me some new ones too, not just the usual Sailor moon, Naruto, and Inuyasha crossover's. I will do any kind of crossover you want even if I haven't seen the series, I will take time to familiarize myself with it. So remember if you have an idea that you are dieing to see just send me a message and we will talk about it. Thank you and now enjoy the chapter.

My Little Gohan: The Grand Galloping Gala

Gohan had woken up early, to a commotion out in the courtyard of the castle. Letting out a big yawn he pushed the blankets off of his body and carefully climbed out of the bed. Looking around he noticed that Fluttershy was no where to be found and figured she had went to bed.

"I wonder what's happening outside?" he said to himself and went to go investigate. Stepping into the hallway Gohan took the time to admire the artwork on the stained glass window's. It appeared that they told a story of great importance and he was eager to learn what exactly that story was.

One depicted six ponies holding magic artifacts to defeat a large midnight colored pony. Another depicted that same pony with a another equally large pony of light combating a strange chimera looking creature.

As he continued walking he observed more of the wonderful paintings before bumping into something knocking both him and the thing in question down.

"Ow! How dare thou knock down the royal princess!" a voice yelled out to him. Looking down Gohan saw a pony with a midnight colored mane that looked as if the stars themselves flowed through it.

Gracefully standing straight up the pony looked at him with a look of annoyance. "Well what does thou have to say for yourself" her voice rang out through the hall echoing and chilling him to the bone.

"I...I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you" Gohan said, looking down at the ground with a sad look on his face. Turning on the heels of his hooves he was prepared to run away when the loud pony stopped him with a well groomed hoof blocking his path.

"Wait young one, I did not mean to frighten you." she spoke still using her loud voice. It frightened him when she spoke, making his heart race due to the sheer volume of her voice.

"Please don't yell at me, I'm really sorry for knocking you down." Gohan apologized again, still keeping his gaze trained on the floor.

" Thou must be mistaken, for we are using the traditional Canterlot voice, we require high volume to properly address our subjects!" she announced spreading her wings and raising her head high into the air.

Gohan stayed silent as her voice still intimidated him and slightly shivered as her Canterlot voice caused a burst of cold air to hit him. Looking down again the pony noticed the shivering Gohan was experiencing and mistook it for extreme fear.

"So thou is scared of the princess of night to?" her voice cracked and eyes started tearing up.

Snapping his head up Gohan looked at her worriedly as she started letting out small sobs. He didn't was confused about what to do, he had never made some cry before and guilt started hitting him hard.

Slowly walking over to her Gohan did the one thing that his mother used to do when he cried, before she turned on him. Wrapping his hooves around the ponies neck he hugged her and tried to quiet her crying.

"Please don't cry, I'm not afraid of you I just thought you were yelling at me" he said before letting go of her, watching as she dried her tears.

They both sat in the darkness of the hallway for a few minutes with only the light of the candles to provide light for them.

Deciding to break the ice, the pony tried to quiet her voice into a tone that was slightly gentler.

"What is thou doing in this hallway, should thou be in the courtyard to observe my sister Celestia raising the morning sun?" she asked hoping that he was telling the truth about not being afraid.

Hearing Celestia's name Gohan smiled and responded "Celestia is your sister, does that make you a princess too?"

Her face brightened as struck a royal post extending her hoof towards Gohan "Thou is correct for I am the Princess Luna." she said once again using her Canterlot voice.

Gohan looked at her outstretched hoof and did the most natural thing he knew and shook it.

"Well is thou going to reveal his name or continue to shake my hoof" Luna giggled as Gohan's face turned a deep shade of red.

"Oh yeah forgive me your highness, my name is Gohan" he said with a bow.

"Well Sir Gohan, We ask you again why are you not in the courtyard to observe my sister?" Luna asked curiously trying to figure out why a pony would bother wasting his time in a small dark hallway. Gohan thought about it and realized that the commotion he hear must have been the other ponies of the kingdom preparing to welcome the sunrise.

"I've been in the hospital for awhile and I don't know my way around the castle, so I stopped to look at the paintings on the wall." Gohan said and once again staring at the image of the light and darkness ponies.

Noticing that he was looking at the legend of discord she decided to enlighten him of the painting's history.

"Long ago a evil creature named Discord ruled the land. He enjoyed creating chaos, and making the lives of all ponies in Equestria a living nightmare. Deciding that he had to be stopped my sister and I found the Elements of Harmony and used them to combat Discord and turn him to stone. Seeing that Equestria was now without a ruler, my sister decided to make it our duty to guide Equestria into a time of prosperity and happiness. She ruled over the day and bathed Equestria in the warm sunlight, while I was given control of the night, and the bright moonlight." she finished and giggled at Gohan's amazed face.

Gohan had enjoyed Luna's story and imagined both of the princesses fighting the evil of Discord. Finally looking away from the painting Gohan eyes drifted to the other painting that showed what looked like a evil version of Luna being defeated by 6 ponies holding what Gohan assumed was the Elements of Harmony.

"Princess Luna, what about that painting?" he asked and raised his hoof and pointed to the painting.

Luna smile dropped as she gazed at the picture and slowly began to speak her sad story.

"This painting shows the story of my greatest shame. As I said before, Celestia ruled over the day while I ruled over the night. But I was always jealous of my sister because of this. Ponies all over the land laughed, and played in her warm sunlight while they slept through my beautiful night. One day I refused to allow the sun to raise and kept the moon high in the sky, which made my sister angry. We both fought each other, neither of us able to get the upper hand on each other. My jealousy and anger transformed me into a terrible and evil pony named Nightmare Moon. Realizing that I wouldn't stop fighting until only one of us stood the victor, my sister used the Elements of Harmony to imprison me on the moon cold and alone. For the next thousand years my sister took command of both night and day while I could only stare at my once happy home from the dark side of the moon. Earlier this year I had escaped from my lonely prison and came to seek my revenge. I was stopped by Twilight Sparkle and her friends wielding the Elements of Harmony and returned to my true from. I found that my return had became an unwanted one because no one remembered the once kind Princess Luna but only the terrible Nightmare Moon." Luna stopped talking as the painful memories came flooding back to her.

Gohan felt a wave of pity come over him as he listened to her story. In a way her story was just like his, one mistake leading to exile and hatred. But he also knew that while he had only been on the run for a few weeks she and been alone for a thousand years.

"It's not so bad right? At least you got to make up with your sister, I don't have a family to forgive me for what I did." Gohan said sadly and turned his face away her.

Luna frowned as she heard him speak. Wanting to knew what he was talking about she decided to press him on the issue.

"Sir Gohan what do you mean you have no family to forgive you?"

Gohan's eyes widened as he realized his big mouth had gotten him into trouble. Quickly thinking of a story he could tell Luna without completely lying to her.

"Well where I am from I was apart of a special team of monster fighter's. My father had finally had the creature on his last legs and was finally ready to finish him off when he decided to make me do it. I was really angry at the monster and wanted to make him pay so I dragged out the fight and toyed with him. The monster decided that if it couldn't kill me it would try to blow up everyone, by inflating it's body and the exploding. My father seeing no other way to save everybody gave his life to get the monster as far away from it as he could. After the monster was defeated my friends decided that I was to dangerous to live so they turned on me and tried to kill me. I ran for weeks trying to get away from them until I somehow ended up in a forest, when Fluttershy and her friends found me."

Gohan stopped talking and was silent for a few moments until he felt a large weight against his body. Princess Luna had embraced him in a tight hug, and softly kissed him on the cheek.

"It seems we both have had our share of hardships." she whispered to him and removed her hooves from around him. "Very well then Sir Gohan, I humbly request that we be friends."

Gohan smiled at her offer, not expecting someone of her rank to even think of wanting to be friends with someone like him. No words could express his happiness so he agreed with her by giving her a nod, and a warm smile.

"Well then my new friend, would you like to watch my sister perform her duty of the day?" Luna asked him helped him to stand from his seated position.

Smiling happily Gohan followed her as she trotted off down the hallway.

The noise of the courtyard kept getting louder and louder as they got closer and closer eventually pushing open the large doors that loud out to where the mass of ponies were collecting.

Trying to push their way through everypony that was there Princess Luna grew increasingly irritated. Gohan noticing her annoyance put his hooves over his ears as he prepared for the inevitable volume the princess commanded with her voice.

"STAND ASIDE MY SERVANTS, ALLOW YOUR PRINCESS AND HER FRIEND TO PASS" Luna spoke using her Canterlot voice. It obviously had the effect she was hoping for as they all bowed and moved out of the way forming a pathway right in the middle of them.

Motioning for Gohan to continue walking she led him to up to a platform with a large sun emblem in the middle of it. It was a interesting looking artifact and he wondered what purpose it served in welcoming the day.

He didn't have to think long before watching the Sun princess herself walk through the same place Luna had cleared out for them and taking her place right in front of the sun stone.

All of the ponies cheered as they were exited to witness Celestia perform her magical duty to the world. It made Luna slightly jealous though as hardly anyone ever cheered about her moonlight, in fact becoming Nightmare Moon made most ponies afraid of the night like it was some sort of plague.

Not wasting anymore time Celestia had begone the ritual by spreading her wings and flying high into the air. Answering Gohan's question about the importance of the stone, it glowed a fiery red. The light soon lifted off of the ground and combined with Princess Celestia, getting brighter and brighter with each passing second.

Gohan could feel the heat of the light taking away the small chill that accompanied the night time air.

After glowing for a few seconds Celestia had released the energy and everypony stared in awe has it rocketed high above the clouds and forming the sun in the sky. Sensing her job was complete Celestia gracefully lowered herself to the ground in front of Luna and Gohan.

The other ponies had started to file out of the courtyard to begin their daily duties leaving the two princess and Gohan remaining.

"So Gohan how did you enjoy the sun raising ceremony?" Celestia asked happy to see him out and about.

Gohan smiled and clapped his hands together. "It was amazing princess, I've never seen anything like it before!"

Princess Celestia chuckled and then looked over to Luna. "I see you have made friends with our newest guest, my little sister."

Gohan, and Luna both blushed as Celestia laughed at their blood-red faces and decided to have a little fun with them.

"Well Luna it looks like you have a date to tonight's Grand Galloping Gala, and here I thought you weren't going to come tonight." Celestia laughed seeing Luna and Gohan's eyes grow as large as dinner plates.

"Surely thou can not be seri..." Luna started but was cut off as Celestia spoke again.

"Now remember you two wear something nice tonight, and Gohan I am hoping the we can all get better aquainted with you tonight." she finished and left to oversee the decorations for the Gala.

Gohan was confused about what happened, and Luna could stand there with her mouth hanging open.

"Um...Princess Luna can you tell me what just happened?" Gohan asked scratching the top of his head. Luna was just as confused as he was but still attempted to give him a answer.

"Unfortunately my sister has a misguided sense of humor so for tonight we will be keeping each other company at the Grand Galloping Gala." she huffed trying to figure out what exactly her sister was trying to do.

"What's a Grand Galloping Gala?" Gohan asked.

Princess Luna shot him a weird look and answered "How does thou not even know about the biggest celebration in the kingdom?"

Staying silent Gohan only shrugged his shoulders and listened to Luna's explanation.

"Well Sir Gohan, the Grand Galloping Gala is a party that my sister throws once a year, where she invites all of the most fanciest ponies in all the land. My sister has saw fit to force the two of us to participate in the party this year." Luna finished as Gohan face dropped.

He had never been invited to a fancy party and didn't like the idea of being around fancy ponies he didn't know.

"Can't we just not show up to the party?" he asked hopeful that Luna would tell him they didn't have to go.

"DOES THOU HAVE A DEATH WISH! My sister banished me to the moon for a thousand years, and we would not like to return there." she said letting her voice raise and her usual speech pull through.

"You're right forget I said anything." said Gohan scared to think about being banished to the cold, dark moon.

"Alright friend Gohan, if we are to make an appearance at the Gala tonight then we must make our-self look presentable to all, when thou is ready to present thyself have one of my royal guards guide you to my quarters. And do try to find a suitable costume to wear." Luna said and retreated to her side of the castle.

Gohan sighed and returned to the room the he was most familiar with, surprised to see Fluttershy searching the room for him.

"Hello miss Fluttershy is something wrong?" he asked before getting knocked to the ground in a bone crushing hug.

"Oh Gohan I was so worried that something bad happened to you." Fluttershy cried her face buried in his mane.

Gohan was speechless, had she really been this worried about him. He would hate to see what happens when something really bad does occur.

"I was down in the courtyard with Princess Luna to see Celestia raise the sun up, it was so cool!" he said as Fluttershy finally let him go "Princess Celestia actually invited me to become Luna's date at the ball tonight."

All the color seemed to drain from Fluttershy's face as she heard the last part. "Nightmare moon, is your date tonight!" she almost screamed remembering how scary she looked when she escaped from the moon.

"She doesn't go by Nightmare Moon anymore, and it was Princess Celestia's idea for us to be each others dates for the night, I just wish I had something good to wear to the Gala." Gohan said looking down at his unclothed body.

Fluttershy thought about and the told him "Princess Celestia invited me and my friends to the ball too, maybe I can ask Rarity to make you a costume before they arrive tonight."

Not wanting to cause any trouble Gohan tried to decline her offer, but Fluttershy had already started to write a letter to Rarity telling her to bring her costume, and to also make a new one for Gohan.

"I will be right back Gohan, please don't go anywhere until I get Celestia to send this letter to Ponyville." Fluttershy told him and started racing off to find the princess.

"Good job Gohan not even here for a week and I'm already causing trouble." Gohan said to himself and waited for Fluttershy to return.

( Later that Day)

After Fluttershy had returned she told Gohan that Rarity had started working on a magnificent costume for him to wear to the ball (Princess Luna being his date had a lot to do with it...sneaky Rarity).

For the last bit of remaining time before the ball Fluttershy took the time to remove the rest of Gohan's bandages that were around his legs.

"There we go all fixed up." she smiled and placed the old bandages into a trash-bin in the corner of the room.

Gohan was glad to have those bandages off of his legs because the were making his limbs stiff. After thanking her for the helping him while he was injured, they both walked down to the castle gate to welcome Fluttershy's friends.

Fluttershy was on the lookout for the cart that Twilight had told her she had created with her magic. Sure enough being pulled by ponies came a large cart that looked like a giant apple being driven by a tiny dragon.

Stopping just outside the gate Fluttershy watched as each of her friends exited the apple each wearing a different costume hoof stitched by Rarity herself. Twilight Sparkle was the one to greet them as the rest of the ponies slowly made their way past the gate

"Hello Fluttershy how have you been in the last couple of days." Twilight asked and hugged Fluttershy.

"I have been really well, I can't believe Princess Celestia let me stay inside the castle for this long." Fluttershy at her good friend.

"And I see you're up and well Gohan" Twilight giggled at him as Gohan gave a small shy smile.

"Oh yes before I forget, Rarity finished both of your costumes and wanted to give them to you both personally...IF SHE CAN EVER GET THROUGH THE GATE!" she yelled back at rarity who was trying to find the best way to get through without getting dirt, or mud on her stylish dress.

"Twilight when are you going to learn that style is everything, I can't have the dress that I have been working on for days to become ruined before I even get into the party." she said with great sophistication in her voice "Ah Fluttershy and Gohan I have completed both of you costumes and spike will be bringing them along in a minute you must hurry and get changed the ball will begin any minute"

True to her words the dragon had pulled along two chests with both of the costumes in them.

"Um... Thank you miss Rarity I hope it wasn't to much trouble to make this for me." Gohan said grateful of the work Rarity had put in for him.

Rarity sweetly smiled at him "Think nothing of it Gohan, you are our new friend so it is only natural that we help each other out." she flicked a strand of her well combed mane behind her ear trying to get it to stay in place "Also I couldn't allow the date of Princess Luna to simply wear nothing."

Gohan eyes widened as he realized that he had forgotten about being Luna's date.

"Oh my gosh I almost forgot about that!" he yelled and grabbed the chest that was labeled for him and ran off to get changed.

Laughing at his antics RainbowDash couldn't help but say "Wow how did he ever get a date with Princess Luna?"

The other ponies all giggled along with except for Fluttershy who felt a tad bit jealous for some reason.

(With Gohan)

"Oh man how could I forget that I had to go find Princess Luna?" he said to himself as he finished putting on the outfit that Rarity had made for him.

He looked at himself in the mirror and admired exactly what Rarity had made. The front of his outfit was fashioned to look like royal armor that a knight would wear. It's color was made to match the flowing star pattern that showed in Princess Luna's mane.

The back was fashioned into a whitish gray design to completed the knight look and gave off a glow that looked as if the moon was shining from them. He noticed that a small area was cleared to show off his cutey mark. On his hooves were golden boots that looked extremely expensive. Finishing off the look was a small gold headpiece that resembled a crown.

The outfit was comfortable and lightweight so he wasn't upset about having to wear it, in fact he loved it because someone had actually taken the time to make such a wonderful costume for him.

Taking one last look at the chest he realized that one last item was left in the very bottom. Reaching down he lifted the last item out which turned out to be a bouquet of purple roses with a card stuck to it.

Opening the card he read the words out loud "Dear Gohan: The best way to a mare's heart is through a nice gift, simply give this to the princess and she will be yours. I wish you luck! Signed Rarity.

Gohan scratched his head for a second confused "What does she mean by she will be mine?"

He didn't have time to come up with a answer as he looked at the clocked at almost screamed " Oh man if I don't leave now the Princess will kill me!" sticking the bouquet in his mouth he ran to find one of Luna's guards to escort him to her chambers.

(With Luna)

Princess Luna was pacing around her chamber's with a small frown on her face.

"Where could Gohan be" she nervously asked no one in particular "maybe he thinks me ugly and does not wishes to show his face with mine."

Walking over to the large mirror that she had been standing in front of for the last several hours she tried to make sure her outfit was okay. She had used her own magic to create the clothing she now wore.

A long flowing dress that mirrored the night sky filled with stars covered her body. Her hooves had all been painted a dark blue and each contained a circle of diamonds in the shape of a moon. Her tiara was outfitted with the finest jewels in all of Equestria and sat perfectly upon her head.

"Maybe he is afraid of me and ran away." she spoke sadly and lowered her head to the ground.

Almost lost in her sadness she almost didn't hear one of her guards knocking on her chamber door. "What does thou require of me?" she yelled at the door before the voice of a guard answered back.

"A visitor requests to see you your highness, he said he is here to escort you to the Gala."

Almost running to the door she opened as fast as she possibly could allowing Gohan to step into the room.

"I'm so sorry princess, I lost track of the time...I um... got you these." he struggled to get out before presenting Luna with the beautiful bouquet.

Slightly blushing Luna accepted the flowers and went to find a vase to put them into.

"Thank you Sir Gohan, We must say you look very handsome." she said as she slowly walked around Gohan causing him to blush shyly.

"Thank you princess I think you look wonderful to." he said causing a equally red blush to appear on Luna's face.

Luna smiled at him before moving towards the doorway leading to the Gala "Come Gohan, if we are to get there on time we must get there with great haste."

Following her happily Gohan followed her as the made their way to the party.

(At the Grand Galloping Gala)

Princess Celestia was quite proud with the preparations of the Gala. She had invited her greatest student and her friends as a way of showing thanks for their hard work and defeating Nightmare Moon and restoring her sister to her true form.

Speaking of her sister, Celestia was wondering what was keeping Luna and Gohan away from the party.
She was getting worried that neither of them would show.

Her whole reason of setting them up to go together as so both of them could get used to the company of others. Her sister had been out of touch with the ponies of Equestria for the last millennium, and she was certain from what Gohan had said about his home that he didn't make many friends.

Suddenly the royal guards announced the next guests of the party. The head guard pony to a deep breath and sounded off loud enough for everyone to hear "Please Welcome her highness Princess Luna, and her date Sir Gohan!"

Everyone turned their attention towards the two ponies walking into the ballroom and bowed as they passed by, some of them still fearful of the memory of what Luna used to be.

Walking pass the guests and making their way up the stairs to where Princess Celestia was located Gohan and Luna started chatting with the sun princess.

"Well Gohan I can see miss Rarity has created such a fantastic costume for you, and my sweet sister your costume is wonderful as well." Celestia spoke praising how well they looked.

Gohan smiled at her comment and thanked her, Luna on the other hand remained silent and gave only a slight nod.

"Thank you for inviting me to your party princess, it's a great honor to be here." Gohan gleefully said and bowed to her.

Celestia was glad that she invited him, he reminded her of herself when she was a young filly. Gohan was such a charming boy, and reminded her of feelings that she had not felt in a very long time.

"Gohan it is a greater honor to invite one's friends to the party, it would not be right if I didn't make you one of my special guests and I'm pretty sure Luna is glad to have you as her date for the night." Celestia giggled as she say her sister turn red and tried to stutter out a defense.

"Dear sister... thou just can't s-say such p-private things out loud. Those are one's inner feelings and they shouldn't be broadcast out loud." Luna said while trying to control her embarrassment.

Celestia grinned as she realized Luna had just inadvertently confirmed what she had just said."So you admit that you are glad to have him as your date instead of some other colt?"

The red on Luna went from a light shade to a complete crimson as her sister pushed words into her mouth. Quickly turning away from Celestia, she took off fast away from the two "We must have a drink, we are burning up!"

Celestia's giggles turned into full blown laughter as she watched her sister gulp down glass after glass of punch.

Gohan was confused about what had just happened. Had Celestia caused Luna to reveal some kind of personal truth, and what did it have to do with him?

"Princess Celestia can you please explain to me what just happened because I am so confused." Gohan asked.

"Tis nothing Gohan, just a little sibling rivalry." she tried to pull back her laughter as she muffled herself with her hoof "Why don't you go enjoy yourself, I have a feeling that Luna is going to be really thirsty."

Gohan nodded and walked into the crowd. Looking all around the room he tried to find Fluttershy and her friends somewhere in the room.

After walking around for a few minutes he heard a voice call him, turning around he saw Twilight Sparkle sitting with her friends. Walking over to them they all started conversing with him.

"Wow Gohan it seems the costume I made for you was perfect, do you like it?" Rarity asked waiting for the critical feedback that she thrived on.

"I love it Rarity, it feels so comfortable and I love the effort you put in to make it look like knight's armor." Gohan said hoping his answer was what she was looking for.

The self-satisfactory smirk on Rarity's face told him it was. Applejack was more impressed with how fast Gohan had recovered from his injuries.

"Are you sure you are fixed up partner? Not many ponies could have taken the beaten that you went through and still be up and kicking." she asked and pointed to a small scar that was showing on the left side of his cheek.

"Don't worry about me Fluttershy did a very good job at patching me and taking care of me for the last couple of days." Gohan replied giving all of his thanks to Fluttershy.

"Well Fluttershy it looks like you have miracle hooves." said Twilight Sparkle clapping her hoof on Fluttershy's back.

The shy pegasus pony blushed and smiled at everyone "You don't have to thank me Gohan, I just did what anypony could have done."

"Aww Sugarcube you gotta give yourself more credit, I don't think anypony at this table could have done a better job at sewing someone back up like you. Applejack praised her and raised her glass of punch in the air.

Gohan could see that these were the closest of friends that there could possibly be. It made him think of the days when he had friends that he could call on for support, but sadly those days were long over.

Noticing Gohan smile turn into a frown Pinkie Pie jumped up from her seat and tried to cheer him up. "Don't worry Gohan we will find those monsters that chased you away from home and teach them a lesson!" she said and gave him a hoof tap on the arm.

Gohan smiled but shook his head at her "It's okay I don't think that I will ever return to that place ever again. It's really far in the forest and I had no one be friends with."

Fluttershy couldn't believe it, he was offered the chance to return to his home and he refused without giving it a second thought. She realized that something besides a few monsters made him not want to return.

They sat in the company of each other for about ten minutes before they all left to fulfill their reason for being at the Gala. Applejack was running a shop selling various apple food products, Rarity was chasing after some fancy looking pony with a brown mane, Pinkie Pie was trying to bust a move on the dance floor, Fluttershy was chasing after some woodland creatures that she kept seeing run away from her, RainbowDash was hanging out with some ponies in flying costumes, and Twilight Sparkle was in her favorite place...right by Celestia's side.

Gohan was by himself so he decided to find his date. Somewhere in the time he had started talking with the girls Luna had wandered away from the punch dish. He found her after a small search of the ball room on the upper level watching the other ponies from the upstairs balcony.

Walking up to her he placed his hoof on her shoulder startling her.

"My word Gohan how long have you been there?" she asked hoof placed on her heart. Gohan figured that he must have startled her and apologized to her.

"I was just wondering why you were up here alone instead of with everyone else?" he asked pointing to the rest of the ponies having a good time.

She lowered her head and sadly replied " We stay up here alone because we do not think they would enjoy my company."

Gohan was saddened about how the princess felt as if no pony cared about her.

"I enjoy your company princess...I KNOW!" he announced "how about we go down there and dance with each other?"

Luna looked at him surprised. He wanted to dance with her, even after knowing of her evil past.

"Thou should not poke fun at me, no creature wants to dance with one such as me." she said and was prepared to walk away until Gohan grabbed her hoof.

"I'm serious princess let's go down to the dance floor, I am your date after all aren't I?" Gohan said his face turning serious but soft as he continued to pull her towards the direction of the other ponies.

Luna was surprised that he had been able to convince her to actually dance with him, but his face was a mix of love and determination.

As soon as they were were in the middle of the dance floor they proceeded to lift up onto the back of their legs and placed their hoofs on each other shoulder's.

All of the other ponies observed them and followed their example as the DJ changed the song to a slow romantic one (Just imagine your own slow dance music I really do not want to put the lyrics of a song into the fanfic).

Luna was surprised at the gentleness Gohan showed when moving back and forth with her. She had danced with only one pony before her imprisonment and she remembered it didn't end well for her hooves.

Gohan was a different story though he was careful, smooth, and was trying to make the dance memorable for her.

She started to wonder if what Celestia had said was true. Was she right in guessing that Luna was glad to have Gohan for her date. She could feel a warmness in her heart the mad her feel magical, it made her feel safe like she belonged and not some evil creature like everypony thought her to be.

Looking to the top of the balcony Luna could see her sister smiling warmly at her. She could honestly say that she was glad her sister made her come to the party, the feeling that Gohan had made her feel inside made her want to try harder to earn the love of the people.

Gohan was feeling the same burning feeling inside his chest too. He had never thought about the opposite sex romantically, so these feelings that were rising up inside of him exited him. Princess Luna was filling a empty spot in his heart that he didn't think was possible to fix.

But it wasn't just Luna that was causing the strange feelings for him, his thoughts soon drifted to two other ponies that were also at this ball.

His thoughts drifted to the first of the other ponies. He remembered the tender care she had given him when they had first met, her kind words made the pain of losing everything seem not as bad as she cared for him. Fluttershy's love had found another empty spot inside his heart that was begging to be filled.

The last pony was the complete opposite of Luna. She had treated him with such kindness and respect that he couldn't help but allow a feeling of love to wash over him blending all of his feelings into one.

These three ponies who he had just met captured his heart in a way that no one else has ever done before.

At this point he didn't care about losing his home back on earth all he cared about was keeping his new home safe, and his new friends happy.

As the song came to a end both Luna and Gohan let out a satisfied sigh and reluctantly released their hold of each other.

"Well Gohan we than thank for being my date, but unfortunately I must perform my duties of the night so I will have to cut this night short." she said disappointingly and started to walk away from the party.

"Wait will I see you tomorrow?" Gohan asked sad to see her go.

Luna stopped and turned her head back at him gracing him with her best and kindest smile "We feel that we will see much more of each other in the coming days." and continued walking off to raise the moon and stars.

Smiling softly Gohan walked up to the stairs to rest next to Celestia and Twilight.

Princess Celestia and watched the whole thing and was eager to hear of Gohan's impression of the night so far.

"Did you enjoy your dance with Luna?" she asked him as Twilight moved closer to hear about the night princess.

"Yes your highness I enjoyed dancing with her, I just wish she didn't have to leave so soon." Gohan sadly said scooting his hoof along the ground.

"Do not worry yourself Gohan, my sister lost much after being imprisoned on the moon. To see her smile while she was dancing was a wonderful sight indeed." Celestia finished as her eyes watered slightly.

Twilight Sparkle hugged her teacher as she tried to calm her down "Don't worry Princess I'm sure Luna will make many friends now that she is back in Equestria, she just needs the right people to help her." looking at Gohan as she finished the last part.

Celestia tears dried as she heard her student's words "Yes Twilight you are right as long as she has the right people to guide her then she can truly be happy."

Celestia walked over to Gohan and wrapped her hooves around him.

"Thank you for showing her what it feels like to be cared for."after she finished her words Celestia leaned down and placed a soft kiss to the side of his face.

Gohan blushed as his cheek felt warm. Twilight Sparkle was surprised about what the princess had done but understood why the princess had kissed him. To Celestia it was her way of expressing her love without completely giving herself up.

She knew that her sister needed love more than she did at the moment. But that didn't mean that she would give up wouldn't compete for Gohan's love as she also knew that another pony besides her and her sister was interested as she could noticed Fluttershy eying Gohan from across the room. Who knows maybe they could all have a happy ending.

For the time being though they would have to buy their time and wait.

(Two hours later)

The Grand Galloping Gala was finally winding down as the majority of the guests left to return to the homes. Sitting at a large table in the empty party room Gohan, and the other ponies were chattering away.

Gohan laughed as the all recalled the stories of the night's failed adventures. Twilight Sparkle let out a exhausted sigh as she finally decided to speak the truth.

"I can't believe how dull the Gala actually was!" she said before slapping her hoofs over her mouth as Princess Celestia had walked into the room.

"Well my little Twilight the Gala is always dull, that is why I invited you all I was hoping you could spice things up a little." She laughed as spike decided to wake up from his junk food coma.

"NO thank you princess, I think your chef's did a job of spicing up the food by themselves" spike groaned and rolled over onto his stomach.

The ponies all laughed at Spike as he continued groaning on the ground.

"Well all my friends I think it is time for you all to return to Ponyville, I did so enjoy your visit and hope you will come back to visit more often." Celestia smiled and walked them all to the carriage.

"Wait princess what about Gohan even though he has healed he doesn't have a place to stay in Ponyville?" said Fluttershy not wanting to leave Gohan homeless.

"Gohan will be staying at the castle with Luna, and I." said Celestia answering her question.

"Oh...i see" said Fluttershy her eyes turning sad. Celestia noticed that she was sad about having to leave her new friend she decided to make a deal with Fluttershy.

"Do not worry, Fluttershy if you desire to come see Gohan then I can arrange transportation to the castle... as long as you all promise to assist Luna in becoming reacquainted with Ponyville.

Fluttershy face exploded into hapiness as she heard Celestia's offer. She could tell that the other ponies happy to help Luna in exchange for access to the castle whenever they wanted.

Waving goodbye to his new friends he watched as their carriage took off for Ponyville. Looking at the back window of the apple carriage Gohan could see Fluttershy staring right back at him with a smile on her face.

Raising his hoof up Gohan gave her a special wave just for her causing her to smile and return the gesture with a special wave of her own.

Gohan and Celestia eventually returned inside of the castle as Gohan let out a might yawn.

"Well Princess I think it's time for me to return to my bed for the night, thank you for inviting me to the party." he said and started walking off into the direction of the hospital wing.

"Gohan where are you going? I had a room made just for you, so you wouldn't have to sleep in the dark old hospital." Celestia said and led him off to the direction of his new room.

Coming up to a Jet black door with gold trim, Celestia pushed it open and showed Gohan in.

The room was large, able to allow 4 people to live in it without bumping into one another. There was a king sized bed in the right hand corner of the room, that came complete with blue and red blanket set. A large window presented itself behind a luxourious curtain that looked to be thousdands of years old.

"Princess...I don't think I can accept this room." Gohan started to say before being shushed with hoof to the face.

"Gohan I have told you before that you are my friend, and as my friend I will do my best to make sure that you stay as happy as possible." Princess Celestia assured him " Alright Gohan I will leave you to your rest, if you have need of me simply asked my guards to allow you entrance to my quarters. Good night and sleep well." she hugged him once more and then retired to her chambers to rest for the night.

Gohan climbed into his new bed and started thinking to himself.

"Why does she treat me so well? Celesta has been so kind to me yet I continue to lie about my true origins...but if I tell everyone about the real me they might hate me and I will be alone again." the thought of everything being taken away again caused tears to form in Gohan's eyes as he laid he head down and tried to sleep the bad thoughts away.

(With Celestia)

Celestia laid upon her royal bed trying to piece her thoughts together. Thanks to Gohan her sister had found someone she could trust and be friends with, and Gohan had managed to awaken the hearts of three lonely ponies.

Maybe Gohan didn't have to choose between them. She was the ruler of Equestria after all so she could allow Gohan to have as many mates as he wanted, but the question would Gohan agree to love all three of them without showing favoritism between them.

Realizing that only time would reveal the answer Celestia laid her head down and began to dream of her friends and the wonderful life that they all helped her create

All right everyone I'm back and I am terribly sorry for the Delay. This next chapter is going to be broken up into a two parter so I am going ahead and posting the first part even if it is a little short. I have gotten a lot of new ideas from Solrac III so be sure to thank him for helping me. Be aware that the part 2 of this chapter will be more extreme than the ones I have posted so beware

My Little Gohan: Discord Strikes

Gohan woke to the sun peeking through his curtains. Yawning loudly he threw his hooves over the side of the bed and walked over to the window.

Pushing it open Gohan stepped onto the balcony breathing deeply. The air was strangely sweet almost like candy. Taking another breath Gohan tried to remember exactly what the smell reminded him of.

"Oh I what that is it's choc..." he didn't get to finish his sentence because of a black rain cloud covered in a chocolate rain shower. Returning inside he shook himself "What kind of cloud drips chocolate?"

Leaving his room he started to wander the castle observing strange things that were happening. The guards were currently pecking at the floor like chickens, the maids were sword fighting with feather dusters, and the chefs were break dancing on the tables.

Gohan was confused with their behavior. Was some kind of the crazy party going on that he didn't know about. Walking into the throne room, he saw Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna standing there with serious looks on their faces.

"Princess Celestia what the heck is going on?" asked Gohan. The princesses turned around surprised.

"Gohan, thou has not gone crazy?" Luna said rushing forward to hug him.

"What do you me I haven't gone crazy, did something bad happen?" said Gohan looking at Luna as if she had grown a second head.

"Gohan have you not noticed the strange things going on around the castle? It can not be coincidence that all of these ponies have lost their minds all at once." said Celestia as she tried to pinpoint the cause of the madness.

Gohan thought about it for a second, and remembered something.

"Princess what if the same thing that's happening here is happening in ponyville? Maybe we should write a letter to Twilight to find out?"

Celestia nodded as she used her magic to quickly write her message and then sent it as fast as she could to spike.

They waited in silence for about ten minutes until finally with a poof the reply appeared. Celestia opened it and dropped her jaw as she went read through the message.

"What does it say sister?" asked Luna eager to learn of Ponyville's status.

"Nature has gone crazy! The cloud's are raining chocolate milk, animals are growing strange new limbs, entire buildings are floating upside down!" Celestia gasped out her eyes growing wide.

Gohan was just as surprised "It's like the whole land has fallen into chaos."

Celestia and Luna both looked at him as if he had said something crazy. "What did you just say!" the both spoke at the same time.

Gohan looked down at the ground and said "I said that it's like the whole land has fallen into chaos."

Just as soon as he finished his sentence both Luna, and Celestia took off with great speed through the castle doors. Confused, Gohan chased after him as fast as he could.

The two princesses ran into the castle maze and expertly made their way through the many twists and turns of it while Gohan was doing his best to keep up with them.

After a few minutes of running they had all stopped at a collection of stone figurines.

Princess Celestia face darkened has she noticed the destroyed remains of a very special statue.

"This is impossible, how could he escaped!" said the sun princess as Luna placed her hooves around her sister in a strong embrace.

"Don't worry sister, we beat him once and we shall do it once again!"

Gohan could tell that whatever had escaped from the statue was going to be trouble. "Princess please tell me who has escaped, and how it is tied to what is happening?"

Celestia tried to regain her royal stance not wanting to appear weak in front of Gohan.

"Gohan the creature who has escaped from captivity is the very cause of the madness that is now flowing through the land. He is the very source of chaos and destruction, and took both of our powers combined with the Elements of Harmony to beat. He is the spirit of chaos Discord!" finished Celestia as lighting flashed through the sky.

Seeing the pained look on both Luna and Celestia's face Gohan jumped up with a serious face.

"Don't worry Princesses, I will do everything in my power to help you beat him!"

After hearing this Luna became worried. She could still remember the damage their battle against Discord had caused, and the lives of their brave soldiers that had been lost. She wouldn't even begin to think of letting Gohan fight Discord.

"Gohan this is too dangerous for one such as you, it is our responsibility to stop him so we must handle him alone." said Luna looking at Gohan seriously.

He was about to disagree with her but he heard many hoofs running at full speed toward them.

"Princess!" came the voice of Twilight Sparkle "What the heck is going on!"

Turning around Gohan could see that each of them looked like they had been through the ringer. Pinkie Pie had been drenched in chocolate milk, rainbow dash and applejack looked like they had been trampled, and Fluttershy and Twilight sparkle looked so confused.

"Twilight Sparkle it seems you and your friends have all witnessed the strange events that have been occurring this day." said Princess Celestia still staring at the broken remains of rock on the ground.

Twilight Sparkle could tell by the look on Celestia's face that she knew what was causing all of this. "Princess if you know something about all of this then you must let us know too, maybe we can even get things back to normal.

Princess Celestia looked at her with a troubled face "Yes my young student...I indeed know the cause of all this. It is something that I have been fearing for so long. It is the one being who has the power to rival both mine and my sister's power. It is the spirit of disharmony and chaos...Discord!"

All of the ponies faces were shocked, they had only heard of Discord in old ponytails, and legends. To know that he was the actual cause of the calamities was troubling news indeed.

"But princess I thought that you and Princess Luna had sealed him away forever, how could he possibly escape?" asked Twilight

Celestia was not able to answer because before she could speak laughter could be heard coming from the castle. It was a loud mocking laughter that chilled them all to the bone.

"Everypony to the castle, we must make great haste!" commanded Celestia turning on her hooves and galloping as fast as she could. They all followed her lead and sped off behind her as the sound grew louder and louder.

As soon as they had arrived the laughing stopped. They were all on their guard just waiting for something to happen.

Princess Celestia knew that the silence was a unspoken insult by Discord, he was watching them just waiting for a opportunity to pick them off one by one.

"DISCORD SHOW YOURSELF!" yelled out Celestia anger clearly showing on her face.

The room was silent for only a few moments after until the familiar laugh rang out again.

" Oh Celestia have you missed me as much as I have missed you?" asked the spirit of chaos himself taking the form of a stone figure in a painting.

"Discord how did you get free, this doesn't make any sense!" yelled Celestia still trying to piece things together.

"Make sense? Oh, what fun is there in making sense? You have no idea how boring it is being imprisoned in a stone statue. Then again you have no way of knowing because I don't turn ponies into stone...usually!" said Discord moving from painting to painting.

Celestia only gave a annoyed growl before turning to everyone else "Everypony follow me we must get to the Elements of Harmony!"

They all took off down the long Corridor trying to keep up with the furious sun princess. Her mind was spinning as questions filled her head, How did Discord manage to break free of his imprisonment, how did he manage to cause so much damage in just a few short hours, and how hard would he be to capture again?

Coming up to a large door Celestia quickly inserted her horn into the small hole in it. Gears and locks could be hear moving until after a very loud click the doors slowly slid open revealing the treasure inside. Taking the small chest from inside Celestia turned towards the others.

"Listen all of you, ever since Luna and I first imprisoned Discord thousands of years ago we have been connected to the Elements of Harmony. Twilight... when you all worked together to defeat Nightmare Moon the connection that me and my sister shared with the elements was broken and passed on to the six of you. The responsibility of Discord now lies with each of you. Inside the this box lies the Elements of Harmony, take them and defeat Discord once again." she finished and opened the chest.

All of the ponies gasped as they gazed into the box. Looking down as well Celestia soon knew why they were shocked. The Elements of Harmony which were the most powerful artifacts in all of Equestria were gone.

"HOW CAN THIS BE?" Celestia screamed her face frozen in confusion. The look was soon replaced with anger as she realized why they were gone "Discord show yourself this instant!".

Letting out a maniacal laughter the Spirit of Chaos answered her call "You rang princess?".

"Discord what have you done with the elements of Harmony!" spoke Celestia angrily.

Discord continued to shift from one painting to the other before stopping on the painting of the elements.

"Oh you mean those old things I just borrowed them for a little bit for my little game." Discord laughed as he pointed to each of the elements in the paintings before they all vanished in thin air "if you beat me I'll give back the elements, but if I win then I get to control Equestria for all of Eternity!"

Gohan's face grew angry as he watched Discord continue to laugh and mock his friends. Charging straight for the painting that Discord was standing in Gohan yelled out "You'll never get away with this!".

Quickly disappearing from the painting Discord laughed as Gohan made contact with the empty wall. All the ponies rushed to his side quickly helping him to his feet.

"Gohan are you okay?" asked Celestia placing a hoof around his body. Gohan nodded and softly brushed her off with a small forced smile. Luna was angered by Discord's tricks and she proceeded to use her Canterlot voice to yell at Discord.

"DISCORD WE WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO HURT OUR FRIEND GOHAN!" her body started to glow a dark blue showing that she was furious.

"Ah Princess Luna back from the moon I see, let me ask you one thing if you knew about your...friend Gohan's true origins would you still stand by him, or avoid him like the plague?" Discord taunted her as Gohan's eyes grew wide with shock.

Luna was confused "What are you talking about!

"Oh your little friend Gohan didn't trust any of you to know about the real him, but I can read his heart and memories and I assure you it is nothing to be proud of." Discord smirked at Gohan noticing that his face was horrified "What's wrong Gohan afraid that everypony would find out about you, how about I show them exactly what you really are!".

With a snap of his fingers the spirit of chaos lifted Gohan into the air and covered him a purple ball of energy. The others could only watch as they could hear Gohan's screams of pain inside the ball.

"Discord stop this and release him!" Celestia yelled as tears formed in all of their eyes.

"Not yet Princess! I think that you should see your little Gohan in a new light!" Discord laughed as the ball slowly lowered itself to the ground before smashing harshly into the ground.

Dust and smoke flew into the air blinding everyone into the room. When it all cleared a large pile of rubble filled the spot where the ball had impacted.

"GOHAN!" they all yelled before pulling the large rocks from the pile. They didn't have to pull rocks long though because with a large grunt Gohan through his arms up flinging rocks to all corners of the room.

Taking a minute to lift himself to his feet he looked down and realized a very important change. He no longer walked on four legs but on his own two feet, his front hoofs morphed into hands, and his spiky black mane went back to it's original appearance. He was once again dressed in the tattered training Gi he was dressed in during the cell game but the top half had been destroyed leaving his chest and arms completely visible to anyone who looked. The last thing that completed his look was the symbol of the four star dragonball that looked as if it had been tattooed into his skin. He was human once more.

Turning around he looked at his friends, his face saddened seeing the looks on their faces. The two princesses were the first to make a move as they both approached him before Celestia chose to speak.

"Gohan is this the real you?" she spoke not in anger but in wonder, she had never seen a being such as him before.

Gohan only nodded and stared at the ground.

"Why didn't you tell us that you weren't a pony?" asked Luna. She felt a little hurt that her first and only friend didn't tell her what he really was.

Gohan still stared at the ground but gave a small response "I...was afraid you all would hate me."

His answer rendered them all speechless. Their new friend was afraid of losing them, so he kept the real him a secret.

"Gohan after this over we will all have to have a very long and detailed discussion about this new turn events." Celestia said and once again turned towards Discord who was on his back laughing on the ground.

"Oh this is just too funny, none of you even knew that he wasn't a pony. Oh well I guess it's time for my little game. Alright wielders of the Elements of Harmony listen to my riddle. Twists and turns are my master plan. Then find the elements back where you began." Don't take too long my little ponies!" He yelled out just as he disappeared.

Twilight Sparkle thought about the riddle for about 2 minutes before looking out the large glass window into the castle gardens. "Wait a minute, Twist and turns...he's talking about the castle maze I'm sure of it!"

"Hold on just a minute Twi, how do you know that the elements are gonna be in that old maze?" asked Applejack.

"Because he said find the elements back where you began, Discord escaped from the statue in the garden where the maze is, it has to be the answer!" said Twilight confident that she was right "Princess will you be okay here while we go look for the elements?"

Celestia nodded and said "Yes Twilight Sparkle, I will remain here with both Luna, and Gohan but please hurry we do not have much time.

Twilight nodded and took off with her friends to the castle maze.

"Um..Gohan?" a voice said causing Gohan to look up. Fluttershy had stopped running and stood before him yet again "Listen I know that whatever reason you had for not telling us must have been important and I know that you are a good person, so before I leave..." lifting herself onto the back of her hooves Fluttershy leaned up and gave Gohan a quick peck on his lips. "Please be safe." she blushed and then galloped off to join her friends.

Celestia grinned before brushing against Gohan's side "You see Gohan your friends care more for you than you thought...always remember that." Luna soon brushed against his other side before both walked off to inspect the damage that discord had caused so far.

Gohan's mind was conflicted. On the one hand he had betrayed his friends trust by not telling them about the real him, on the other hand they still cared about him. He was also thinking about Fluttershy's kiss and how she might have feelings for him.

Once again things in Gohan's life have become complicated.

"Gohan is thou coming?" called out Luna looking at him worriedly.

His inner thoughts would just have to stay quiet right now at least until Discord had been imprisoned again. With that Gohan ran off after the two alicorns.

---

Alright people remember this chapter is to set up the Action packed part 2 so don't freak out that this one isn't as good , and is shorter than the other chapters. Part 2 will make up for that if you will just have some patience.

All right people here is part 2 of Discord Strikes. Gohan is now back to his human form so he is now back to his old ki using self. I have branched this into a multi-part arc so part three will be the last part so don't expect the fighting between Gohan and Discord until the next chapter.

My Little Gohan: Discord Strikes Part 2

(With Twilight and her friends)

Twilight and her friends were running with great haste to the castle garden's. Each of their mind's were racing with thoughts of their friend Gohan.

"All right imma be the first pony to say what we're all thinkin, what in the world is Gohan?" asked Applejack taking a moment to rest her hooves.

Rainbow Dash landed right next to her before speaking excitedly "I don't know what he is but did you see how big his muscles were?" she said with a small almost invisible blush on her face.

Rarity who had been waving a fan in front of her face groaned out "I will admit that he has a impressive body but those rags that he was in were so hideous, I will have to make him a whole wardrobe full of clothes just to make sure he never wears that ugly thing again."

Pinkie Pie was bouncing around them all laughed out "I think that he looks kinda funny now since he has no fur and stands on his back legs."

Twilight Sparkle face looked sad as she finally gave her response " I just don't understand why he didn't tell us the truth about what he really was. Doesn't he trust us?"

Fluttershy thought long and hard before coming to one conclusion "Maybe whatever happened to him caused him to be afraid of loosing what he had. Maybe he wanted so badly just to fit in with us that his past no longer seemed to matter and he just wanted to get on with his new life with his new friends."

They all looked at her in awe. Fluttershy the quietest pony in Equestria had just spoke the deepest thing they had ever heard.

This was the last word spoken as Fluttershy ran trotted in front of them and into the direction of the castle gardens.

(With Gohan)

Gohan stood with the princesses on the edge of the castle. Peering down into Ponyville they could see the results of Discord's freedom.

Chocolate rain clouds poured over the land, animals limbs were mutating into weird shapes, and buildings were now floating upside down.

Celestia face was frozen in a frown. Thousands of years of peace were now being destroyed by a crazy spirit of chaos. Looking over to see her sister's face, Luna tried to comfort her sister.

"Dear sister we must have faith, Twilight Sparkle and her friends will retrieve the elements of harmony and defeat Discord. All we have to do is protect our loyal followers until the elements have been found." Luna said as if trying to reassure herself.

Celestia sighed "You are right my sister, but something is bothering me. Discord's riddle seemed too easy for even someone as smart as Twilight Sparkle, I think it may be trap to disguise the real location of the element's."

Gohan remained silent still ashamed to say anything after Discord transformed him back into a human. His mind was troubled with the thoughts of what would happen once this incident was over. Would they turn on him like his old friends did?

Clenching his fists tightly Gohan stared off into the distance not noticing they concerned look that he was now getting from the princesses.

"Gohan is something the matter?" asked Luna stepping closer to him. She took the time to observe his body checking out all of his major features. His face was handsome almost perfect with only a small scar going down his left eye. His eyes were a enchanting emerald green that seemed to shimmer in the light. Bringing her gaze down his body she blushed as she noticed how well built his upper body was.

Gohan could feel her eyes scanning his body making his face turn red and he struggled to get out a answer "I...I'm f..fine Princess Luna."

Celestia giggled, she could tell that Gohan was embarrassed and her sister wasn't making things any easier for him. But unfortunately she knew that they had a job to do, and she would not allow her royal subjects to suffer without aid.

"Let us fly down and give aid to ponyville!" said Celestia spreading her wings about to take off "Gohan you may ride on my...Gohan!"

Screaming his name out as he jumped over the side of railing both princesses were about to speed down and save him until something wonderful happened. A bright wave of energy covered him and he lifted himself through the air before he even got close to the ground.

Gohan hovered over to them before putting his hand behind his head in the usual Son way "Um did I mention that I can fly?" he asked noticing the shocked look on their faces.

"G..Gohan...what are you?" gasped out Luna not believing what she was seeing. Never before had anyone been able to fly without the use of wings or magic and she could tell that Gohan had neither at his disposal.

"Listen...Princess Celestia...Princess Luna, if you will give me the chance I will explain everything to you all after Discord is stopped." said Gohan knowing that if he was going to have any chance at forgiveness he had to stop with the hiding and be completely honest about himself.

Celestia looked at him and smiled "Yes Gohan I am interested to learn about the real you and anymore interesting abilities you may have. I would just like to know one thing, why did you not tell us in the beginning?"

Turning away from her gaze he answered "I already lost everything I had once, I didn't want to do it again."

Celestia and Luna were saddened by his answer. They didn't feel betrayed by his new form, only more interested to learn all they could about the real him.

Princess Luna flew up right beside him and hugged him "Gohan I swear to you nothing about who you are will make me stop being your friend."

Copying her sister's action Celestia hugged him to "Yes Gohan, we understand that there are things about you that you wanted to keep secret, these things are for you to decide when to reveal. Just know that you friends love you for what is inside not what form you take."

Looking down at Ponyville Celestia let go of Gohan "We must save ponyville from Discord's cruel tricks!" she finished and flew with hide speed towards the town.

Luna gave Gohan a small peck on the cheek before flying off to join her sister.

Reaching up to touch his cheek Gohan blushed. He was not rejected after all, his friends did care for him! A new found feeling burned in his heart. No longer did he feel the worry of abandonment, in it's place was the urge to protect his friends from anything that would try to harm them.

With this new feeling in mind Gohan rocketed off into the direction of the day and night princesses.

(With Celestia and Luna)

Both of the princesses were a good distance away from Gohan so Celestia thought it would be a good time to have a personal conversation with her sister.

"So Luna does that little smooch back there mean you wish to seek a relationship with our young friend?" she asked her sister with a knowing smile on her face.

Luna eyes widened as her sister spoke "S..Sister is now the best time to talk about something like this?" she blushed and tried to turn her face away.

"Little sister it is natural for a young girl to fall in love, and seeing as your face is as red as a cherry I feel it is my sisterly duty to talk to you about these things."

Luna could not believe what she was hearing. Discord was off turning the land upside down and her sister was worried about her love life.

"Well what about you big sister, as I last recall I could see you eying him up at the Grand Galloping Gala, I'm sure that you were fantasizing about him all through the night" pouted Luna trying to put the spotlight on her sister.

Celestia was surprised she didn't think anyone was watching her stare at Gohan during the Gala, but how did she catch her? The only time that she would have had time to was when...That's when she remembered.

"You didn't really go to get a drink did you, you were spying on me to see what I would do." Celestia said giving her sister a small nudge.

Luna almost grinned for once in her life she had turned the tables on her sister "That's right I could see you staring at him like he was one of those bananas you love so much!"

Celestia gave her sister a embarrassed look "Well it's not like you didn't do the same thing just a few minutes ago, You were basically drooling over the size of him muscles!"

Looking away from her sister Luna knew that she was right. But this could be a problem since they both had a crush on Gohan.

"Fine sister we both just admitted we have a thing for him but what now, surely we both cannot share one lover." said Luna with a worried face she didn't want to have to fight her sister over their love of Gohan.

"To the contrary my sister, since we are the ruler's of Equestria we have the power to fall in love with whoever we want, even if he or she is taken by another. There will be no issue with us both sharing a love, but interestingly I believe that we will be sharing him with others if you get my meaning." said Celestia with a wink.

Luna thought about that for a minute. Who else could have a interest in Gohan? She was sure that Gohan didn't know many people besides... "Sister do you mean to tell me that..."

"Yes Luna it seems that Gohan will be very busy in the days to come." said Celestia laughing and flying in front of her sister.

Luna blushed as she continued to fly looking back she could just make out Gohan's face. Something was strange, it seemed as if Gohan face heated up and was now turning red.

Allowing Gohan to catch up to her she ask him once again "Gohan are you feeling okay?"

Gohan stuttered out "Y..Y...Yes Princess I'm f...fine!"

That was all he said before increasing his speed a little and flying towards Ponyville. Luna was confused, did Gohan somehow hear their little conversation? There was no way he was close enough to hear what they were saying.

Shaking her head she flapped her wings faster to join up with her sister and Gohan.

(Ponyville)

Touching down at the edge of the town the trio looked around at all of the chaos happening. Celestia assessed the situation before speaking "All right both of you, we have a lot of ponies to help and in a short amount of time. I will find the mayor and see what can be done for the town. Luna I want you to help all of the ponies that may have been injured. Gohan while Luna is searching for the injured I want you to go to the school and make sure all of the young fillies are okay."

Both of them nodded before heading in their own directions.

(With Celestia)

It had been easy enough to find the mayor right where everyone expected her to be, right under her own desk in her office. Using her magic to lift up the desk the mayor shrieked at her sudden lack of cover.

"Please don't hurt me!" yelled the mayor throwing her hooves up over her head.

Chuckling softly Celestia spoke softly "Do not fret mayor everything is being taken care of, there is no reason to hide anymore."

"PRINCESS!" yelled the mayor quickly jumping up. Taking a minute to dust herself off the mayor quickly stood to answer Celestia "What is happening, and is the whole town is in chaos?"

The princess motioned for the mayor to follow her as she stepped outside the building "I'm afraid that everything that is happening is the fault of my old nemesis Discord."

The mayor's eyes widened before clasping a hoof over her mouth "You mean that spirit of chaos and disharmony is free once more!"

"I'm afraid so, but Twilight Sparkle and her friends are on their way now to locate the elements of harmony to defeat discord." said Celestia turning to look the mayor in the eyes "We must do everything in our power to help the people of Equestria, I will fly to Cloudsdale and give my assistance their can I count on you to gather all the ponies you can find and take them to the castle?"

The mayor nodded but felt that she should as a important question "Princess I can understand gathering all of the ponies but why take them to the castle?".

Princess Celestia's face saddened as she spoke her answer "Ponyville is no longer safe, I fear that after the elements are found the battle with Discord may destroy the town."

Knowing that the princess was right the mayor only nodded and ran to find every pony she could find leaving.

Celestia stood in place for a moment before speaking to herself "This will be a very dark day for pony-kind."

Flying up into the air she flew off to Cloudsdale as fast as she could.

(With Luna)

The moon princess galloped through the streets of ponyville desperately searching for any injured ponies. She decided that her Canterlot voice would be the perfect tool to call out to her subjects.

"TO ALL MY ROYAL SUBJECTS WITHIN THE SOUND OF MY VOICE, IF YOU ARE IN NEED OF RESCUE PLEASE RESPOND TO YOUR PRINCESS!" she called hoping to hear a response from the empty streets.

"Ow lady you talk too loud!" came a voice from the alley behind her. Looking around Luna tried to see where the voice had come from.

"SHOW YOURSELF SO YOUR PRINCESS MAY SEE YOU!" Luna yelled out.

"Alright I will if you will stop yelling, it hurts my head!"said the voice again.

Luna heard small footsteps coming from the dark alley until with a plop a small pony landed with a thud right in front of her. The pony had a light yellow mane with a blueish-gray coat, the cutie mark was a image of bubbles, but her eyes were the strangest thing Luna had ever seen. They were a amber color and both eyes seemed to be focused on different locations.

"Very well I shall speak in the voice more comfortable to the normal pony. As you know I am Princess Luna and I have come to help any injured ponies in the are, do you require any help Miss...Miss?" Luna spoke waiting for the pony to reveal her name.

"Derpy Hooves at your service Princess Luna." Derpy tried to salute her but only managed to knock herself upside the head with her hoof. Princess Luna softly grinned as she watched Derpy rub the area she smacked herself in.

"Well Derpy Hooves like I said before I am here to assist any injured ponies, do you need any aid?" asked Luna.

"Um...yes I need some help." Derpy showed the princess her back leg which was bleeding from a large cut in it "When my house turned upside down, it caused my window to break and large piece of glass sliced my leg."

Luna examined her wound before speaking to Derpy "I think I can seal the wound but it may sting a little...do you trust me enough to do this?"

Derpy thought about it for a moment. She knew that Luna wasn't Nightmare Moon anymore so she wouldn't intentionally try to hurt her, but at the same time she really didn't like things that sting.

"Princess if I let you can you promise me that it won't hurt much?" Derpy said while her eyes started to tear up.

Luna looked her in their eyes and placed a hood on her shoulder "Derpy on my word as a Princess of Equestria I swear that I will make this a painless as I possibly can, all I need you to do is trust me."

Derpy gave a small smile and slowly nodded her head allowing Luna to have a clear look at the cut.

Concentrating she used her magic to wrap Derpy's leg in magical energy. Derpy gave a wince as she felt the energy swirl around the cut and slowly force it shut. After the cut was sealed Luna summoned some bandage wraps and began to put them around the leg.

Standing back to admire her handy work Luna smiled as Derpy slowly stood up and started to trot in a circle.

"You did it Princess Luna my leg is good as new!" Derpy yelled as she gave the princess a giant bear hug.

"Derpy...you are...crushing me!" Luna gasped out as Derpy gave a shocked shrieked and drop her on the ground.

"Sorry Princess Luna." Derpy said and watched Luna stagger to her feet and straighten her mane with her hoof.

Luna gave Derpy a small pat on the head "It is fine Derpy Hooves, just please warn me before you decide to crush me in another hug."

Derpy saluted and gave her a warm smile.

After readjusting herself Luna motioned for Derpy to follow her. "Alright Derpy Hooves seeing as how your leg is now fine, how would you like to help me find any other ponies in need of healing?"

Derpy's face put on a shocked look "You trust me enough to help other ponies?"

"Yes why wouldn't I, any pony that can stand on his or her own own hooves will be of use." Luna asked confused.

Derpy looked at her sadly before saying "All the other ponies usually don't let me help do things, it's because I'm clumsy and sometimes break things."

Luna looked at her for a moment and gave her a small hug "Do not worry the ponies of Equestria still fear me after becoming Nightmare Moon, if we are to show them what we can really do then we must not let things like that get to us."

Luna's words seemed to give Derpy confidence as she started to take off down the streets of Equestria. "Come on Princess lets go find some ponies!"

Giving a small laugh as she watched the little pony gallop as fast as her legs could take her, Luna followed after her. It seemed that once again she had found another friend.

(With Gohan)

Gohan was flying with full speed through the air. He didn't know any of the streets in Ponyville so the air was his best friend at the moment. Looking over the area he tried to see where exactly the school was located.

After searching for a few moments he noticed a building with a large bell in the front of the lawn.

"That must be it! Better go down and see if everyone is okay." Gohan said before dropping out of the sky in front of the school.

Softly pushing open the door Gohan looked into the empty hallway. The ground was littered with papers and overturned chairs.

"Hmm maybe I should try and sense their energies." said Gohan concentrating his ki so he could sense where the ponies were. He felt a large concentration of energies in the room at the very end of the hall.

"Um hello? Is anyone here? Called Gohan knocking on the door. He heard the sound of movement inside the room that sounded as if many beings were gathering at the other side of the room.

Taking a deep breath he quickly burst into the room. The first thing he noticed were five ponies all huddled in the corner of the room. There were three young fillies standing behind two full grown ponies. The second thing Gohan noticed were that he had to clasp his hands over his ears as the small pony with the light gray coat, and pale rose/grayish mulberry mane let out a shriek.

"IT'S ONE OF THEM, IT'S GONNA GET US!" the pony yelled trying to force the other two ponies in front of herself.

The pony with the Fuchsia mane, and the orange colored coat tried to push the other pony off of her "Sweetie Belle! Stop trying to push us in front of it!".

The last filly gave the other two an annoyed look "Will you two stop being chickens! There are five of us and only one of him!". This filly had a she had a palish olive coat, and a amaranth coat

Their argument was stopped as the female older pony shushed all of them. "Applebloom! Sweetie Belle! Scootaloo! Stop arguing and stay behind us!".

This pony had a cerise coat, and a light grayish rose coat. The other pony Gohan could tell was a male. He had a crimson coat with a gamboge mane, and wore what Gohan guessed was a yoke ( the wooden beam usually used between a pair of oxen).

"Please whatever you are, do not harm the children." the female pony pleaded with sad eyes.

Gohan threw his arms out in front of him and tried to explain "Wait you got it all wrong! I've been sent by Princess Celestia to make sure everyone in the school was okay."

After hearing this all of the ponies let out a relieved breath. They all pulled themselves out of the corner as Gohan closed the door to the room.

"Well now that we know that you are hear to help us I think you should know our names. My name is Cheerilee, I am the school teacher for Ponyville. This is Big Macintosh, big brother to Applejack. Finally these three fillies are Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo. May we know your name kind sir?" asked Cheerilee.

Gohan nodded and answered her "My name is Gohan, like I said before Princess Celestia sent me to make sure the school was okay."

Applebloom looked at Gohan strangely "You aren't a pony are you Gohan?".

Gohan threw his arm behind his head and said "Um...what I am is kinda complicated and I don't really have time to explain."

Applebloom face scrunched up but she didn't press Gohan on the issue.

"Gohan I was wondering did you happen to pass my sister Applejack I haven't seen her in hours?" Big Macintosh asked his face growing concerned.

"The last time I saw she was going to find the elements of harmony with the others...but that was hours ago." Gohan said looking worried.

They were silent for a few moments before Gohan realized something.

"Um..Sweetie Belle what did you mean when you said that I was one of them?" he asked bending down to the young pony.

"You mean you didn't see the tall shadow thingies? They were everywhere how could you not see them.?" gasped Sweetie Belle eyes wide.

Gohan looked confused, he didn't see anything outside that looked like shadow things. Just as quick as the thought flashed through his mind Gohan felt many power levels coming from outside the building.

"Everyone stay here I think whatever you were hiding from came back!" Gohan yelled to the other ponies as he ran out of the room slamming the door behind him.

"Do you think he will be okay Ms. Cheerilee?" asked Applebloom with a worried look.

Cheerilee looked at her with a kind smile "I'm sure he will be just fine Applebloom." Inside her head though she didn't have high hopes after seeing what those creatures could do.

(Outside the school)

Gohan rushed outside onto the grounds of the school looking all around the area. He had a horrible familiar feeling and it caused him to get into a fighting position.

"Whoever is out here show yourself I can sense your energy!" yelled Gohan

He didn't have to wait long as the sound of evil laughter could be heard behind him.

"Well, Well, Well if it isn't little Gohan! So tell me are you enjoying the chaos I created?" came the familiar voice of Discord.

"Discord! Come down here and fight me!" yelled Gohan Flying up to try and rush Discord.

Discord phased away from Gohan's punch before laughing once again.

"Oh Gohan what's the rush? We have plenty of time to play with each other. In fact I have a little memory game that I would like to play right now."

Lifting his arm up discord focused a large amount of shadow energy into his hand. "I think you will enjoy the company of two of your favorite enemies!" Discord yelled before firing many dark blasts into the ground.

Gohan watched as all the blasts slowly started to lift off the ground and begin to form humanoid bodies. As the bodies started becoming more and more recognizable Gohan's face turned horrified.

"No...not them!" Gohan gasped out before dropping the ground.

The bodies took the form of the two creatures that plagued Gohan's life the most. They were the very reason Gohan no longer had a home or a family. It was the Bio-Android Cell, and the Saiyan Prince Vegeta.

"Well if it isn't the failure of the planet Earth Gohan!" laughed Cell with a vicious smirk on his face.

Vegeta gave a similar laugh while slowly stalking towards Gohan "Looks like the weakest member of the Saiyan race wants yet another beat down!"

As the many shadows stomped towards the young saiyan, Discord let out a howling laugh "LET THE GAMES BEGIN!"

---

Well everyone he is the part 2 of Discord Strikes. The next part will have the actual fighting so get ready for the Gohan we all love fighting against the shadow clones of Cell and Vegeta. Well see you next time.

Alright people I'm back for good this time. I have had a pretty eventful week and I'm ready to get back to my story. Thanks for all the story ideas, that you have sent me. I will be collecting all of the ideas and will choose which ones to work on after I have finished this story. On a side note...TOONAMI'S BACK! Now on with the story. (Oh yeah please excuse me if this chapter isn't all that great)

---

Terror and anger filled Gohan as the evil shadows descended upon him. The sources of all of his misery were right in front of him laughing, and taunting him.

High above them Discord took time to gloat at Gohan's misfortune "Well little Gohan how does it feel to be all alone in the world...wait you already know what it feels like after all you did cause you're father's death!."

Gohan tried to push out Discord's words out of his head as he went into a fighting position and launched himself at the shadow clones. Taking a flying swing at the closest Cell clone to him it exploded in a small cloud of black mist.

Unfortunately just as quickly as the first clone fell three more sprouted in it's place.

" Tisk..tisk..tisk Gohan! Did you really think that it would be that easy? I have the power of chaos on my side...speaking of which." said Discord and with a snap of his finger's the three new clones all fired a wave of ki straight for Gohan.

Quickly jumping into the air he was able to dodge all three of the blast's and flew at Discord with great speed. Pulling his arm back Gohan threw a jab at the chaos spirit barely missing his face.

"Now Gohan you shouldn't hit your elders...they might just hit back!" mocked Discord before snapping his fingers again. Suddenly the ki blasts altered their course and flew directly into Gohan's back exploding on contact.

Gohan's body was sent speeding through the school's roof landing in the small classroom where Big Mac, Cheerilee, and the Cutie mark crusaders were hiding.

"Gohan!" they all yelled pulling off chunks of rock from on top of him. After a few seconds Gohan slowly pulled himself to his feet.

"Thanks everyone now go find somewhere to lay low, it's not safe here anymore." The half-saiyan said while brushing himself off.

"But Gohan you can't stay here by yourself, those things will squash you like a bug!" Big Mac said with a shocked look on his face "Besides how would we get past those things without being attacked?".

"Don't worry about me, I have been fighting things like that for years now." Gohan said taking time to crack his knuckles and neck "I draw their attention onto me and while they are busy with me you can take off in the other direction!".

Big Mac didn't like the idea but he was in no position to argue as he had to take of his little sister and her friends...not to mention his secret crush Cheerilee.

"Mr. Gohan?" asked Applebloom slowly walking towards him "You're not gonna let anything happen to us are you?

Gohan did his best to hold back a frown. He himself didn't know if he could hold all of the clones back in time for them to escape. "I will do my very best to give you all time to get as far from here as possible." he finished and softly patted Applebloom's head.

Suddenly they all heard a loud crash coming from outside the room. "Oh no they are coming for us!" yelled Cheerilee pushing the three fillies behind her.

"Quick, everyone climb out of the window and find Princess Celestia!" Gohan ordered as he got into a fighting position.

The sound of heavy footsteps rang through the hallway of the school getting even closer to their position. Turning his head Gohan watched as Big Macintosh and the others help each other out of the window.

Gohan was glad, even if he was taken down by Discord and the clones at least he went down helping people in need.

"He has to be in one of these rooms, search all of them until you find him!" Yelled Discord's voice clearly getting irritated.

Gohan smirked knowing that he was making Discord angry. Summoning all of his courage he flung the door open and fired a long string of ki blasts at the many figures in the hallway. The sound of exploding bodies and a very angry chaos spirit filled the hallway as Gohan broke through the ceiling and into the sky.

Scanning the area he made sure there were no more ponies hidden in the area around him. Sensing that it was safe he stared at the smoking hole in the roof that he made just waiting for his attackers to pursue him.

Surprisingly only Discord himself flew out of the building and up to his level in the sky.

"What's wrong Discord? Couldn't beat with the knockoff Cell and Vegeta's?" Taunted Gohan with a sense of confidence.

He was waiting for Discord to become angry again, but to his surprise the chaos spirit smiled and then started laughing.

"Oh on the Contrary my poor misguided monkey boy. I just sent them on a little side mission to pass the time." Discord laughed out and then threw a ball of chaos energy at Gohan.

Quickly moving out of the way of the blast Gohan angrily yelled at Discord "Where did you send them!".

"Oh no where important...just in the direction of the ponies you helped escape." Discord chuckled out watching as Gohan's eyes widened.

"YOU...YOU BASTARD!" Gohan screamed Gohan before speeding off to stop the clones.

Discord continued laughing as Gohan got smaller and smaller in the Distance. "I think it's time I checked on Twilight and her friends." he finished and disappeared in a poof of purple smoke.

(With Twilight Sparkle)

Twilight had been running through the castle maze for what seemed like hours. Thanks to Discord's trickery all of her friends were each separate by the thick walls of the maze.

"Alright I have to be on my guard, that sneaky draconequus could be anywhere." she spoke to herself as she continued on her way.

There were many thoughts swimming through her head as she walked. Many of them were of Gohan and his strange appearance, she had never seen or read about a creature like him. Another question was why didn't Gohan tell them that he wasn't one of them.

After the thought entered her head she remembered what Fluttershy had told them "Maybe whatever happened to him caused him to be afraid of loosing what he had. Maybe he wanted so badly just to fit in with us that his past no longer seemed to matter and he just wanted to get on with his new life with his new friends."

"Hmm...I have never known anyone to be afraid of where they come from. Maybe after all of this is done I can ask Gohan myself and clear up everything there is to know." Twilight said and increased the speed of her hooves.

(With Fluttershy)

Fluttershy was frightened as she found herself alone in the maze. She had no idea how she was going to get out without the help of her wings.

"Applejack told me that whenever I'm lost and need to keep myself from being afraid I should think of warm happy thoughts." She said to herself and closed her eyes so she could think.

Suddenly her mind was filled with images of all of her animals, her nice comfortable home, and her very best friends. But then another thought popped into her head.

The image of a beautiful park with flowers as far as the eyes could see appeared. She was sitting on a picnic blanket with Gohan in his human form. In her mind Gohan was feeding her strawberries while she rested on his chest.

Opening her eyes Fluttershy smiled happily and trotted through the maze lost in her thoughts.

(With AppleJack)

"I can't believe we fell for such an obvious trap!" yelled AppleJack with a shake of her head. She galloped as fast as she could through the many trails.

She couldn't believe her day had taken this turn. She remembered waking up, and going out to perform the day's chore's before a chocolate rain cloud started raining on her. Then Discord started playing mind games with them and hiding the Element of Harmony. Not to mention seeing Gohan's true form.

Speaking of Gohan what in the hay was he. He had no fur to speak of except for the tail sticking out from his behind. He wore strange clothes that were tattered, and showed off all of his large muscles.

She blushed at that thought and shook her head again. She had always considered herself as a independent pony, trying her best not to be impressed by colts and their looks. But Gohan wasn't a colt now was he?

"Maybe I could try some of this mushy girl stuff with Gohan after this is all done." Applejack said to herself and focused on getting through the maze as fast as she could.

(With Rarity)

"Why do mazes have to be dirty and icky?" groaned Rarity as she walked carefully forward "I'm going to need some personal spa days to clean my coat from all of this dirt.".

After a few paces Rarity stopped moving to rest on a rock which she first took the time to sweep off with her hoof. "Now while I'm resting I can think of a idea for Gohan's new wardrobe."

She had not stopped thinking about him since they had left their separate ways. At the moment she wasn't sure why Gohan didn't tell them about the real him, but what she did know that one of her friends would not be allowed such a cut up, torn, and overall tacky outfit.

She tried using a stick to scratch some ideas into the dirt but found it increasingly difficult.

"Oh why did that ruffian have to take away my horn? I won't be able to get anything done without it." She moaned again before jumping off the rock and trotting off down the path.

(With Pinkie Pie)

Pinkie Pie was hopping her way down her part of the maze while thinking excited thoughts.

"Wow I wonder if Gohan is some kind of mutated pony who was apart of a mad scientist's crazy experiment!" she thought picturing Gohan as Frankenstein's monster.

She started laughing as the funny images started pouring through her mind.

Then she thought about how sad Gohan's face looked when they all saw what he really was. It reminded her of her life on the rock farm and how unhappy everyone there was. Then after seeing Rainbow Dash's sonic rainboom it made her so happy and giggly that she threw her family their first and biggest party.

She remembered how happy and joyful it made them all, and from that day forward she vowed that as long as she was around no one would be allowed to be sad.

"I know what I will do! I'll throw Gohan the biggest party that anyone has ever seen. It'll have balloons, cake, presents, games, dancing, music, lots of food..." the pink pony continued her list as she galloped through the maze.

(With RainbowDash)

"I can't believe that jerk took my wings away. How can I be Rainbow Dash without the part of me that makes me dash?" the rainbow pony said before putting on a sharp look "Wait a minute, I'm still the fastest pony in Equestria even without my wings."

She took off at a high speed as if she was trying to prove to herself that her words were true.

While she was running she started thinking about Gohan. Like the others she had never seen a creature such as Gohan. That made her very interested in him.

She could also tell from his body type that he was very athletic so he probrably exercised a lot.

"Well Gohan whatever you are, you've caught the eye of the fast pony in Equestria and she always get what she wants!" Rainbow Dash spoke to herself as if she was challenging someone to tell her otherwise.

(Back to Gohan)

Gohan couldn't believe he let himself be so careless. Thanks to him Applejack's brother and the others he was with were in danger.

He flew over Ponyville checking the area for the clones but the town seemed as if it was dead. He assumed that everyone was being as quiet as possible as to not attract attention to themselves.

" HELP!" screamed a voice down in the streets. Quickly flying down he spotted Applebloom standing over what appeared to be a injured Big Macintosh and Cheerilee.

Touching down on the ground Gohan rushed towards them and ask her what had happened.

"Those monsters followed us and threw some kind of weird balls of light at them." Applebloom spoke as her eyes teared up.

"Applebloom where is Sweetie Bell, and Scootaloo?" Gohan asked her in a soft voice knowing she was about to start crying.

Just before she could answer the sound of a ki blast rang out through the air straight for them. Thinking fast Gohan grabbed Applebloom and flung the both of them out of harm's way before hearing evil laugh.

"Why Gohan if you wanted to know where they were then you should have asked us." A single cell cloned laughed before pulling the two knocked out fillies from behind his back.

"Cell let them go NOW!" Yelled Gohan getting into a fighting position.

"Calm down monkey boy, Me and other clones decided to hold a little contest for you. If you win you get them back, but if you lose then we splatter them all over the walls of this town!" declared the clone.

Gohan growled as he thought about what the contest could be, unfortunately he was in position to say no.

"Fine where is this contest to take place?" he asked still holding his position waiting for any sign of a sneak attack.

"The middle of Ponyville is where the contest takes place. You have only four hours to decide if you want to participate. After that time is up I cannot guarantee their safety or even the lives of everyone in this town for that matter." Cell laughed before disappearing into a cloud of darkness taking the girls with him.

Applebloom started crying as she watched her two best friends disappear. "Please Mr. Gohan you have to help them."

Once again Gohan was reminded of his own helplessness as he looked down at the small pony. He would not allow them to pay the price for his failure.

"Applebloom you have my word that I will rescue them from those monster's." he said and leaned down to give her a reassuring pat on the top of her head "First things first we have to get Macintosh and Cheerilee to a hospital."

Applebloom smiled and nodded knowing that Gohan would be true to his word. She wondered though how they would be able to move them seeing as Big Macintosh was as heavy as a boulder and Cheerilee would just add on weight to them.

She was surprised though as Gohan bent down and lifted Big Mac onto one of his shoulder's and soon did the very same to Cheerilee. She was so awestruck that she didn't notice Gohan start to leave.

"Applebloom I need you to show me where the hospital is." Said Gohan turning his head to face her.

Snapping out of her stupor Applebloom nodded and ran in front of him to lead the way.

That puts an end to this chapter. Sorry for the Delay. I was originally going to make one gigantic chapter that had Discord being Defeated but I think you have all waited long enough for a chapter to come out. Don't worry though the next chapter will have all the action you have been looking for also you will enjoy the surprise twist that I will throw in at the end of it. Also I have exciting news that you all might want to hear...I have enlisted into the army and will be going to basic training after my last school year which ends in may next year. Now just because I have enlisted does not mean that I will not be going to write my story anymore. It just means that I will be limiting the updates to Saturday's and Sunday's starting next year. But until then expect lot's of updates and who knows I may get finished with this story before I even leave.

Well everyone I think that you have all been very patient with me during the last few weeks so I feel that you deserve a second, longer chapter. I'm still looking for someone to write the lemon parts later in the story so if you feel up for the challenge please let me know. There are still quite a few chapters before that but I like to have these things planned early. On to the Story!

---

Princess Luna and Derpy Hooves were flying high in the sky after rescuing the last of the injured ponies in Ponyville. Luckily it was a simple matter to locate everypony and transport them to the castle out of harm's way.

Something was pulling at the back of her mind though. It was almost as if she knew that Gohan was in danger. Stopping in midair she called out to Derpy.

"Miss Derpy we are turning around!" Luna called out receiving a salute from the mail pony.

Flying as fast of she could Derpy followed after the moon princess. She didn't know what she was looking for but she had faith that her princess would find it.

After what seemed like hours of flying finally Princess Luna started to land in front of a large building.

Luna was silent for a moment before she started speaking to herself "Why do I feel the need to visit the hospital?".

Soon after the thought crossed her mind Derpy Hooves touched down next to her.

"Princess why are stopping at the hospital?" asked Derpy.

"I do not know Derpy Hooves, something inside of me told me to land here." answered Luna before placing her hoof over her heat.

Derpy looked at her worriedly but said nothing as she watched the princess move inside of the building.

The inside of the hospital was deserted with papers and chairs thrown about. Luna figured that all of the ponies left quickly to the castle to be protected from all the chaos.

Suddenly she heard a noise coming the very back of the building. Taking very slow steps Luna and Derpy made their way through the hospital.

The noise started getting louder and louder until finally they could make out what appeared to be a cry for help.

"WHOEVER IS REQUESTING HELP COME OUT SO YOUR PRINCESS CAN SEE YOU!" Princess Luna used her Canterlot voice to call out through the empty hallways.

For a minute silence filled the air as the two ponies waiting for whatever was making the noise to come out from hiding.

"Maybe they didn't hear y..." Derpy was interuppted by a body hitting the ground.

Princess Luna instantly knew who the body belonged to before clasping her hoof over her mouth in both surprise and worry.

(With Gohan)

Gohan was running as fast as he could behind Applebloom. On his shoulder's was the bloody and beaten Big Macintosh and Cheerilee.

How could he have let this happen? He should have know that Discord would have tried to something so sneaky and underhanded. Now he had a major problem. Both Rarity's sister and Scootaloo were now in the hand's of the clones and if he didn't show up to meet the challenge the girls would be killed.

Shaking his head he swore to himself that he would not allow any more deaths to be placed over his head.

"Mr. Gohan we are almost at the hospital!" Applebloom panted out of breath from their constant running. She wasn't as athletic as her older sister, or her brother so she had to use everything she had just to keep herself from dropping to the ground.

Speaking of her family where was her sister. The last thing she remembered Applejack telling her was to stay with Big Mac.

That was over four hours ago though so what had happened? Did those shadow creatures get her sister like they got her brother, teacher, and best friends?

Choking back a sob she stared at the ground as she kept galloping.

Gohan could see how worried she was and tried to take make her feel slightly better.

"Applebloom you don't have to worry, just as soon as we get to the hospital we will get these two fixed up and I will rescue your friends next." Gohan spoke to her softly as they continued to run.

Applebloom turned her head towards him and gave him a soft smile. She could tell that he was trying to keep her spirits up so she wouldn't break down. It made her feel happy that someone was more concerned about the safety and well-being of her family and friends instead of trying to save their own life.

As the hospital slowly came into view they started to slow down eventually stopping at the front door of the building.

"We made it Mr. Gohan, we made it!" Applebloom cheered trying to catch her breath.

Gohan smiled at her before he realized something that she said to him "Applebloom you don't have to call me Mr. It really makes me feel old. Just Gohan will do."

She gave him a small nod and followed behind him as he stepped into the hospital.

The hospital looked as if a tornado had hit it. Papers were scattered across the floor and chairs were thrown around as if the occupants left in a great hurry. They both walked through the empty hallways desperately looking for any remaining doctors.

After searching every room for help they soon gave up and placed both of the injured ponies into a room with bed's that looked like they were freshly made.

"It looks like this place has been abandoned for hours." spoke Gohan as he leaned against the wall. He tried to think of a way to help the two ponies but was brought out of his thoughts by Applebloom tugging on his pants leg with her hoof.

"Gohan why don't we find some supplies so that we can heal them." she asked looking around the room for the first aid kit.

Gohan eyes snapped open as he heard her speak. "Say that one more time Applebloom!"

Applebloom looked at him as if he had grown another head. "I said maybe we should find some supplies so that we can heal them."

Gohan smiled happily as he remembered something from his home.

(Begin Flashback)

Gohan was sitting on Kami's Lookout with his Namekian friend Dende. Being someone who liked to learn new things Gohan was interested in Dende's ability to heal people.

"Dende can you teach me how to heal things using my own energy." Gohan asked with hopeful eyes.

Dende closed his eyes and thought about it for a second. "Alright Gohan but first let's start off with something small."

Standing up the young Namekian walked inside the lookout and came out with a small pot.

"Alright Gohan the ability to heal something comes from deep within you. You must bring your brightest, happiest thoughts to the surface and concentrate with all of your heart." Dende finished and pulled the lid off of the pot.

Softly tipping the pot over a small sapling landed on the ground in front of him with a light thud. Placing the pot beside him Dende raised both of his hands above the plant and began to concentrate.

Gohan stared at the plant for what seemed like minutes. He was about to tell Dende that nothing was happening, but as he opened his mouth the small plant began to give a bright glowing light.

He watched as the plant started to slowly rise up and sprout roots into the dirt. With a small sigh Dende placed his hands at his side before looking over to Gohan.

"Do you see Gohan? In order to properly heal something you must put all of your concentration into the object you want to heal, and the happiest thoughts you can think of." said Dende pulling another small plant out of the pot "Alright Gohan give it a try."

Taking a deep breath Gohan slowly formed a small ki ball into his hands and began to concentrate. The plant slowly started to rise just as it had done for Dende. But Gohan was having a hard time pulling happy thoughts to the surface and the plant started to lower itself back to the ground as a result of it.

Sensing that Gohan was having trouble Dende tried to reassure the young saiyan. "Don't worry Gohan it takes a lot of practice to be able to be able to heal things like I do."

Panting softly Gohan nodded and got up to play some with Dende.

(End Flashback)

Gohan had completely forgot about his lesson with Dende. He remembered trying for weeks just to heal the small plant from before. After his father returned to earth Gohan stopped learning how to heal things and spent most of his time training for the arrival of the androids.

Looking down at Big Mac and Cheerilee, he realized he had to try his hardest to use his energy to heal them.

"Applebloom...do you trust me?" Gohan said bending down to Applebloom's eye level.

The young pony looked him in the eyes for a second before giving a small smile and a nod.

"Alright I have a way to heal them both, but to do it I need complete concentration and total silence. I want you to keep watch at the door and tell me if someone is coming. Can you do this for me?" Gohan asked her with a serious look on his face.

"You can count on me Gohan!" Applebloom replied and saluted him with her hoof.

Smiling Gohan stood back up and turned to the two ponies. He waited until he heard Applebloom open and close the door to raise both of his arms and pushed energy into his hands.

He remembered what Dende had told him and tried to bring his happiest thoughts to the surface. He once again thought of the times he and his father spent time with each other. He could feel a warmness flow through his hands and into the bodies of the injured ponies.

Unfortunately looking down upon them he noticed that only the small cuts and bruises that show were present through their coat were being healed.

"Come on Gohan try harder!" he growled to himself and tried to think of something else that brought him happiness.

Going through his memory Gohan was having a hard time of finding joyful thoughts because of what happened after the cell games.

Suddenly a look of realization shined upon his face. Thinking very hard he went through all of the memories he had in his short time in ponyville.

He remembered waking up and meeting both Princess Luna, and Celestia. Then he experienced the kindness of Fluttershy and her friends as they attended the Grand Galloping Gala.

As he thought about them all his heart started beating faster and faster and the glow in his hands now illuminated the whole room.

Looking down again he watched in awe as all the wounds dealt by the clones shrank and disappeared. With a grunt Gohan dropped his hands back to his sides as the last of the wounds vanished.

Both of the ponies faces became calm showing that they were no longer in pain. Gohan was glad that he had succeeded in healing them but now he had a problem. He was now exhausted and still had to rescue Sweetie bell and Scootaloo in only 4 hours.

"Gohan HELP!" Came Applebloom's voice from outside the door.

Jumping up from the spot he was resting in Gohan swung the door open and ran out into the hallway as quick as he could.

Turning toward the area the young pony's voice came from Gohan came face to face with the same clone that had issued his challenge.

"Let her go Cell!" He yelled to the laughing android who was holding Applebloom by her mane.

"Sorry brat the boss wants us to make sure that the stakes for our little challenge are high." The clone smirked at him "Oh yes there was something I wanted to give you from my memories.".

Before Gohan could react the clone rocketed toward him and fired a ki blast point blank into his face sending him flying through the hallway and into the wall.

"GOHAN NO!" Applebloom screamed as the clone carried her off out the window.

Gohan tried to chase after them but the healing of Big Mac and Cheerilee caused him to use a lot of his energy and now was only able to limp towards the exit of the building.

"I...I have t..to save her." he spoke to himself and moved against the wall to keep himself steady. Every step he took made him tired and dizzy.

Suddenly he heard something familiar. It was a loud voice ringing out through the hospital.

The chill of cold air softly blew through the halls as he listened to the words that the voice said.

"WHOEVER IS REQUESTING HELP COME OUT SO YOUR PRINCESS CAN SEE YOU!".

It was Princess Luna! Gohan tried to speed up his steps thinking that if he could quickly meet up with Luna then he could find some help to rescue the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

Moving faster he finally made it into the main entrance of the hospital but he forgot about the dizziness that was caused by him being exhausted and collapsed to the ground with a loud thud.

Time seemed to move slowly for him as he layed on the ground. His vision was blurry but he could make out the sound of two ponies moving next to his body.

The last thing he remembered before blacking out was a beautiful voice calling out his name.

(With Twilight and Company)

Twilight Sparkle couldn't believe how her day was going. She had gotten lost in a maze, reunited with false versions of her friends, let Discord convince her that everything was hopeless, remembered why she had made friends in the first place through Princess Celestia's letters, and turned her friends back to normal. Now they were all galloping with great haste back into Ponyville to combat Discord.

As they entered the town they noticed something wrong...everyone was gone. They had been expecting a bunch of crazed ponies either destroying or finding some way to mess up the town. But the only sound the filled the air was of the usual chocolate rain clouds.

"Where is everypony?" asked Applejack tipping her hat with her hoof confusedly.

Twilight looked around and gave a shrug in response "Maybe they all left Ponyville. Can't say I would blame them at this point.".

Pinkie Pie bounced in front of them and chattered loudly "Maybe everypony is playing a gigantic game of hide and seek!".

They all looked at her as if she had grown two heads. Suddenly they all hear a scream coming from the air. Looking up they all saw a weird grasshopper looking creature carrying off Applebloom!

"SIS!" Applejack yelled as she watched them fly off "What in the hay is that thing!".

None of them could answer as they all looked at her worriedly. A voice that they all recognized soon answered her question.

"That my dear Applejack, was a creature called Cell." Princess Celestia spoke as she approached them.

"Princess!" Twilight gasped and ran to hug her teacher and friend "Where is everyone?".

Celestia smiled and softly returned her hug "Do not be concerned Twilight my sister and I have relocated all of the ponies to the castle."

"All but one pony your majesty, that thing has my sister!" Applejack said trying not to tear up.

Celestia placed a hoof on her shoulder and spoke to her encouragingly "Applejack I swear to you as a Princess of Equestria that we will get your sister back." Looking at the area around them she decided upon something "Alright girls we must find my sister and Gohan so we can rescue Applebloom.".

"But Princess they can be anywhere in Ponyville right now, how do we find them?" asked Twilight.

Then without a warning a pony crashed from the sky onto Rainbow Dash's back. They both made a groaning sound before Rainbow Dash looked up to see who had crashed on her.

"Derpy!" she groaned out before rolling her off of her.

"Hello Rainbow Dash!" the mail pony said before dusting herself off.

The princess held back a giggle before speaking to Derpy "Derpy Hooves it was my understanding that everypony was safe at the castle. Why have you come back into this dangerous area?".

"Princess Luna sent me with a emergency message for you." Derpy finished before giving her a red envelope.

They all watched as the princess tore open and read the letter from Luna. After a few moments Celestia's eyes opened wide and she turned around and took off galloping into the town.

They all ran after her passing through all of the chaos that Discord had caused. After what seemed like an eternity of running they all appeared at what they recognized as the hospital.

"Princess why are we here?" Twilight asked out of breath from running so hard.

Celestia didn't answer her question as she pushed the entrance open with her hoof. Twilight looked at the other as they shrugged at her and followed her into the hospital.

As they passed through the door they all realized why the letter was so important. Laying on the ground passed out was Gohan, with Princess Luna softly stroking his head.

"My Sister why is Gohan in this condition?" Celestia asked giving her sister a worried look.

Princess Luna shook her had sadly and answered her "I do not know. Derpy and myself came to look for injured ponies to take back to the castle, and Gohan appeared from the hallway in this condition.

Fluttershy's hoof was placed firmly upon her mouth choking back tears. Not even a couple of hours ago she had been fantasizing about having a picnic with Gohan. Now here he was looking half-dead on the floor.

Even Pinkie Pie had no idea how to lighten up the mood as she stared at the immobile Gohan. She had made herself a promise that she wouldn't allow anyone to be sad as long as she was around, but as she looked at her passed out friend on the ground she felt her happy curls suddenly straighten and her smile dropped into a unhappy frown.

"Alright girls I know we are worried for Gohan's safety but if we want to help him we have to getting him into one of the rooms at this hospital." Celestia spoke and used her magic to pull a stretcher over to them.

Each of the girls all lifted him onto the stretcher and followed the princesses as they levitated Gohan through the hospital.

The majority of rooms were trashed probrably as a result of the the swift evacuation of Ponyville. It almost seemed like a hopeless effort until they noticed a single room with a light on inside of it.

Hurrying into the room the ponies were surprised to see Big Macintosh and Cheerilee sitting inside on two of the beds.

"Big Mac what are you doing here?" asked Applejack relieved to know at least one of her siblings was safe.

Big Mac looked at her for a second before scratching his head and speaking "I don't rightly know all I can remember is helping Ms. Cheerilee keep Applebloom and her friends and...Applebloom!" he jumped at of the bed and looked around them.

"She's not here, one of those creatures took her." said Applejack moving her hat down to try and hide the sadness in her eyes.

Big Mac's eyes widened as he remembered why he was injured "But what about Gohan he said that he would draw their attention while we escaped.".

Both Celestia and Luna moved to the side to reveal Gohan lying on a stretcher.

Cheerilee was shocked to see the very boy that allowed them to escape was now unconscious in front of them.

"How did this happen?" asked Big Mac his face serious.

Twilight was the first one to answer his question "We don't know, Princess Luna found him like this at the entrance.".

"Isn't there anyway that we can find out what happened, Twilight?" asked Rarity who had been silent up until now.

Twilight thought for a moment then came up with a idea "I know of a spell that will allow me to see certain parts of a pony's memory, but I have no idea if it will work on whatever Gohan is.".

"I'm afraid that we don't have a choice Twilight sparkle." said Celestia staring down at the ground.

Twilight knew she was right but was afraid that if she messed up the spell somehow it would cause Gohan pain and she could never hurt someone she lik...er was friends with. Still there was no other way.

Concentrating hard she gathered magic into her horn. Suddenly with a loud pop everything suddenly stopped moving. At first she thought she had ruined the spell when suddenly as if a gigantic rewind button had been pressed reality started moving backwards to replay the events of the day.

When the rewinding had stopped she had found herself in the streets of Ponyville where Gohan's encounter with the clones had began. She watched as Gohan took on Discord and his clones by himself.

At first it seemed like Gohan was going to destroy Discord but the sneaky draconequus sent his minions after Big Mac and the others.

Time fast-forwarded to the point when the Gohan carried both Applejack's brother and Cheerilee to the hospital. She blushed as she could see into Gohan's memories and how he used the feelings he had developed for all of them to heal the two injured ponies.

"So he likes all of us...interesting." she spoke to herself. She remembered that after they had all left the Gala, Rainbow Dash asked them all what they had thought of Gohan. All of them blushed and said nothing for the rest of the ride home.

Focusing back on the images in front of her she watched as Gohan ran out of the room just to be ambushed by a clone of that creature as he kidnapped Applebloom. The remainder of the memory was Gohan limping through the hallway and falling to the ground in front of Princess Luna.

Quickly releasing the spell twilight found herself laying on a bed next to Gohan.

"Twilight!" all of the ponies cried out gathering around the bed.

Taking a moment to steady herself Twilight looked up at them all and with a soft sigh she spoke "Everypony we have a major problem."

"Everypony we have a major problem." This was the beginning of the bad news that Twilight Sparkle was about to reveal to everyone.

Princess Celestia looked at with worry before speaking "What is it, what did you see Twilight?".

Twilight slowly swung her hooves over the side of the bed and moved into the middle of the room. She stayed silent for a few moments trying to figure out a way to explain everything without causing them all to freak out.

Her thoughts were soon interuppted by Applejack who placed her hoof on Twilight's shoulder "Please Twilight, Gohan is the only one who knows what happened to my sister!".

Letting out a loud sigh Twilight decided to just come out and say it.

"Alright Everyone...Gohan was challenged by Discord's minions into a fight to the death. To make sure he showed up for the challenge they kidnapped Applebloom, Sweetie Bell, and Scootaloo." At the sound of her sister's name Rarity's eyes shot wide open and began to slowly fall to the floor.

Applejack could sense the pain she was feeling and quickly wrapped her arms around the Fashionista pony as Twilight continued her explanation.

"The clones told Gohan that if he didn't come to meet their challenge within a four hour period then they were going to...they were going to..." the terrible words wouldn't leave her mouth as Applejack's eyes sharpened at her.

"What are they going to do Twilight!?" the farm pony almost yelled at the top of her lungs.

The color seemed to drain from Twilight Sparkle's face as she spoke her next words "Kill them...".

They all let out a shocked gasp as the words spilled from Twilight's mouth. Celestia and Luna exchanged glances at each other as if remembering a painful memory.

Rarity shot out of Applejack's arms and raised her voice with tears flowing down her face "We have to do something to save my sister!".

Twilight did not speak, because she knew that nothing she could say would make things alright at the moment.

Celestia stepped forward and tried to think of a plan that would save the young fillies and themselves from Discord's tyranny.

"Twilight, how long did ago did you say that the challenge was set?" she asked her student.

Recalling the things she saw in her memory Twilight was able to recall the exact time that the challenge was made "The challenge was set for four hours, but because of all of the events that happened after that three of those hours have been used up.".

Celestia furrowed her brows as she tried to think of a solution. Gohan was unconscious so there was no way that he could get to the challenge in time, and none of them could take his place as it was him that they were expecting to see. So how could they turned things around?

Luna could feel her sister's worry over the whole situation. She desperately wanted to come up with a plan that could fix everything, but sadly she was just as stumped as her sister. With a small sigh she walked over to the bed and stared at her sleeping friend.

She couldn't believe the state he was in. His body had been littered in cuts and bruises. What little clothing was left on the lower half of his body was in tatters and with a little more force they would be completely unwearable.

She felt her face go red hot as she thought of that. She didn't know what species Gohan belonged too but what she did know was unlike the creatures she was used too he had no fur to speak off so whatever was beneath the remains of purple clothing would be in danger of being visible to all of them.

By this time her face had become redder than a tomato causing the rest of the ponies to look at her with worry.

"Are you okay Princess Luna, your face looks like it's burning up?" asked Rainbow Dash hovering in the air beside her.

Turning her head away from the pegasus pony Luna answered in a embarrassed voice "I...I am fine Rainbow Dash just a little light headed, maybe I should get some air outside." she hoped that they would all buy it, and walked past them.

"I'll follow her to make sure she is alright." said Twilight Sparkle and trotted after the moon princess.

Celestia watched as they both exited the room and gave a soft smile realizing why her sister had left.

(Outside the hospital)

Luna had ran to the front of the building as fast as she could, hoping that the other ponies did not see the blush the currently was gracing her face.

She knew that she could no longer doubt the feelings that she was feeling for Gohan, and wished he was conscious so he could help them out of their current predicament.

"Princess Luna?" came a voice from behind her. Turning around quickly she saw Twilight Sparkle standing there with a concerned look "Are you sure you are going to be okay?".

Luna gave a loud sigh before answering the young pony "No Twilight Sparkle I do not believe that I am okay."

Twilight moved to her side and softly poke her side with her hoof "Why don't you tell me what is wrong and I will do my best to help you with your problem.".

Luna looked at Twilight with a small smile, happy that she willing to listen to her problem "It's Gohan...I am starting to feel things for him that I have felt for no other pony. But I am worried that since we are of different species he will reject me."

Twilight looked at her friend with a caring smile remembering what she had seen while going through Gohan's memory "Princess...Gohan cares about you a lot, in fact I would go as far as to say that he loves you, me,Celestia, Pinkie, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, Rarity, and even Rainbow Dash. He just doesn't want to pick one of us and leave the others heartbroken. Even now he thinks that he has betrayed us by not revealing his real self to us. That poor boy wants so badly to be accepted that he just allowed himself to live a lie just so he could stay close to us." she finished with a smile realizing that this is what Fluttershy was talking about.

Princess Luna looked at Twilight with a moved smile and somehow knew that she was right. Gohan was the kindest being that she had ever met and could never hurt any of them. Her mind centered back on the captured ponies. How could Gohan show up for his challenge if he couldn't even get out of the bed? It's not like the girls could take his place.

"Hehehe silly girl have you forgotten the spells we know" spoke a eerily familiar voice. Turning around to face Twilight she asked "Did you just say something Twilight?".

The purple unicorn said no which caused Luna to become very confused. Looking around to see if she could find the source of the voice she was met only with a worried look from Twilight.

"Look all you desire, but you will not be able to see what lies within you." Luna thought long and hard before realizing who the voice was coming from.

"Nightmare Moon! This is impossible you were destroyed by Twilight and the others!." Luna thought inside of her mind. This only caused the voice to laugh as it prepared to speak again.

"I can never be destroyed my dear. I was born out of the anger and jealousy in your heart and will remain with you for the rest of your days." Nightmare moon finished speaking.

Luna's face scrunched up thinking about the things she had done as Nightmare Moon "What do you want from me?".

Nightmare was silent for a few moments before chuckling out "I want exactly what you want my dear. A strong mate that will be with us for our entire existence."

Luna felt her cheeks get warm as she thought about a happy eternity with Gohan. She however was worried about her other side causing trouble once again. What if she tried to take her over completely.

" I can sense your fear but do not worry I have no intention of regaining control. I will just remain to guide you through the events to come. Now we must get to business, I have a spell that will aid you in rescueing the young ones."

Luna listened closely as Nightmare told her of her plan. After she was done her eyes opened wide and quickly turned back inside of the building with Twilight following close behind her.

Quickly finding the room the others were in they rushed inside as they all looked at them hoping that they had found an answer to the predicament.

"Dear Sister please tell us that you have found a solution." Celestia said to Luna with hopeful eyes. She could feel that they all could use some good news for a change.

Her prayers were answered as Luna spoke "Yes Sister I do have a solution but it is very dangerous indeed.".

Big Macintosh looked at her seriously before replying "I don't care how dangerous it is, my little sister is in danger!".

Both Applejack and Rarity gave a nod of agreement and listened as Luna continued speaking.

"Back when was I first imprisoned on the moon I had a lot of time to improve my magic and create many spells for my own personal amusement. Sometimes I created spells to conjure food or create things out of nothingness." Luna observed their faces knowing that they were interested in knowing about life during her imprisonment...everyone except for her sister who had a sad look on her face. "After year five-hundred I suddenly became interested in the ability to shape-shift into other forms and objects so I created a spell that would allow me to change into whatever form I wanted while taking on the memories of that person or object. That is how I was able to follow each of you as Nightmare Moon. I was able to use your thoughts and memories to learn your locations. It also allowed me to know each of your weaknesses and desired that I tried and failed to use against you. Returning to the point of my story this spell will allow each of us to take the form of Gohan and use his abilities." Luna finished her story as everyone looked at her with surprise in their eyes.

Rainbow Dash couldn't believe what she had heard "So let me get this straight, you are going to turn us into Gohan so we can go fight a monster that was able to beat him into unconsciousness?".

Princess Luna softly answered Rainbow Dash's question "Yes Rainbow Dash that is the plan but unfortunately we all must work together to rescue the girls because the spell will only give us a fraction of Gohan's real power. I know that this is an unfair thing to ask of you all but it is the only way I can think of that will allow Gohan to meet his challenge.".

Silence filled the room as the all considered what this meant. They would all have to battle monsters that they had never encountered before. Also they would be outmatched by the power that the creatures held within them.

Big Macintosh looked at the ground for a second before speaking up once again bravely speaking his mind "Well if this is the only way to same my sister and her friends then I will gladly take Gohan's place! He tried his best to keep my little sister, myself, and Cheerilee safe so I think it's time to return the favor.".

Applejack once again nodded and spoke as well "You're right big bro if it's one thing I won't forgive it's when some varmint messes with my family and friends.".

Rarity said nothing but was in full agreement knowing deep inside that she would do anything to save Sweetie Bell. Pinkie Pie was too busy thinking of how funny it would be to look like Gohan.

Rainbow Dash was unsure about their plan but was worried about her biggest fan Scootaloo so she was in full agreement as well. Fluttershy, Luna, and Celestia would do anything that would help Gohan and their friends so there was no argument between them.

So where did Twilight stand in all of this? To be honest she didn't know herself. She was sure that she would do anything to help her friends but would she risk her life on something like this? Thinking back to her first days in ponyville she remembered how each of the her friends did their best to help her adjust to life in ponyville. They never asked for a favor in return and they seemed happy to help her with any problem she might have. They weren't thinking about whether or not things could be dangerous or difficult for them so did she have the right to pick and choose when she should help someone else? The answer was a definite NO as her faced turned serious to signify that she was ready to help whenever she was needed.

Seeing that everyone had agreed to go along with the plan Luna had instructed them all to stand in a circle. Cheerilee had decided to stay with Gohan knowing that on a battlefield she would just be in the way.

They all clasped each others hoof as Luna's horn glowed brighter than anyone could see. A large wave of energy overtook each of their bodies and then their transformations began.

If any of them had to describe what it felt like to become human they could easily sum it up in one word...OW!

They felt their hooves slowly split apart into individual hand with fingers and feet with hoofs. Their spines straightened in the most uncomfortable way possible and they could feel their knees bend more than usual.

With a loud pop their transformation ended and they all collapsed to the ground gasping for air.

None of them could see at the moment so Luna asked Cheerilee if the spell worked as they intended.

Cheerilee was going to say that it did but was speechless that instead of the ponies she knew now there were nine copies of Gohan slowly trying to stand in front of her.

"Wow did that suck!" said Dash G. rubbing her aching body with her newly acquired hands. Her speaking caused each of them to realized that their original voices were imprinted on their temporary bodies.

"Alright everyone the spell has given us all Gohan's memories and we have been given a limited understanding of his skills. If we are to pull this off we must refrain from speaking until after the job is complete. No matter how many times they insult or threaten us we must not respond especially if Discord is with them." Luna spoke to them.

Big Mac G. walked over to Cheerilee and clasped her hoof in his hand "Cheerilee are you sure that you will be okay here by yourself?".

Cheerilee looked him in the eye and answered while rubbing Big Mac's hand against her face "I will be fine you just take care of rescueing the little ones." she finished and gave him a quick kiss on the lips.

Big Mac G. blushed a deep red as he slowly staggered back to the group with the others giggling at him.

Celestia G. and Luna G. stood in front of the group and led them back out to the front of the hospital. The walk there was silent as they all were remembering they good times they had together at the Gala and were hoping that there would be many more good times ahead of them after everything was said and done.

They opened the doors and gathered into a group hug as Princess Celestia tried to encourage them "Alright everyone this will be the most dangerous thing that any of us have ever done. Whatever happens know that you are doing something that no other pony would dare go through. We must all remember the good times that all of us have had and the friends we have made. If we work together we will get through this and restore Equestria back into the calm and orderly place it should be.".

Each of them smiled and became determined to come back safe and with their young fillies.

Concentrating hard they all focused their energy and lifted themselves off of the ground. They hoped that this would no be their final destination.

(Discord's Domain)

Discord had turned a large portion of Ponyville into his own twisted base. Looking at the chaos that he had caused he watched as the clones of the two psycho's Cell and Vegeta amuse themselves by destroying the homes and shops of the ponies.

Usually this kind of fun would be exactly the thing that brought a smile to his face, but something was wrong. He noticed that the town was abandoned...probrably relocated by Celestia in order to keep them away from harm.

A sigh of relief released itself from his mouth as the thought crossed him mind. What would be the use of enjoying chaos and disorder if there was no one to share it with. Sure the clones were company but all they cared about was blowing things up. It made him wonder how that boy even survived five minutes around these monster's.

He slapped himself upside the head after thinking that thought, he should not be worrying about the personal life of his enemies...well unless he could benefit from it.

His thoughts were interrupted by a cry coming from the cage beside him. Twisting his head in a bored manner he stared at the three fillies inside.

The sister of Rarity had started crying and the other two were trying to calm her down.

"Will you please shut it up, she's giving me a headache." Groaned Discord grabbing his head in a mock fashion.

Applebloom looked at him with angry eyes as she yelled out "Just you wait, my big sister and Gohan will be here to sock you right in your ugly face!".

"Oh really my pint sized pipsqueak? Did you know that I turned all of the mane six against each other and your precious Gohan was knocked out by the same creature that kidnapped you?" Discord laughed before creating images of the said events.

He smirked with satisfaction as he watched Applebloom's face fall into a look of sorrow. Scootaloo stayed silent and shot a mean look at Discord who only continued to laugh as both a Cell, and Vegeta clone walked over.

"Master why can't we just kill these three? I'm sure that Gohan will be in so much pain if even more of his friends died while he lies helpless." The Cell clone asked with a venomous smile on his face.

"Yes, besides I have had the urge to kill something all day!" spat out the Vegeta clone as he charged a ki blast and aimed it at the small cage.

Discord snarled and threw a darkness ball at the Vegeta clone causing him to explode in large puff of black smoke.

The large explosion caused the clones to stare at their master as he began to angrily rant at his creations.

"In case you idiots haven't noticed we have way more than Gohan to be worried about. Both Celestia and Luna are reunited which means that their powers are even stronger than before." The chaos spirit growled before returning to his throne.

The Cell clone gulped and returned to the rest of the group. In truth he hated his new master but at the same time he knew that he could not challenge him. Each of them were created by the Dark memories inside Gohan's heart which means that for every clone that was spawned their power was split equally, and there were a lot of clones.

Maybe if Gohan could destroy some of the others then he could absorb the dark essence that their bodies left behind. But what about the clones of Vegeta?

If they were anything like the original then they would desire a fight to prove who was the superior one.

He would have to become stronger if he wanted to survive both of his hated enemies and the half-saiyan brat.

Speaking of which, looking at the clock in the town square the final hour of the challenge approached. Had he used too much force when knocking out Gohan? It would he such a shame if the brat couldn't make it and his friends had to be splattered across the wall.

The thought brought a smile to his face but it was soon wiped off as he could see nine figures fly in from the sky.

"Well, Well, Well, if it isn't little Gohan, and it looks like you have found a way to even the odds a bit. No matter it just means that there is even more for my minions to beat." Laughed Discord signaling for his soldiers to gather close to him.

None of the Gohan's spoke of word as they each got into a different fighting position. Both sides stayed motionless just waiting for the other team to make a move. Suddenly with a loud cry of anger the whole force of Vegeta clones launched themselves at the row of Gohan's.

The ground shook as the small army of Vegeta clones sped towards them charging their Gallick guns. Still the Gohan's stood in place not showing any fear to the advancing threat.

"Well brat of Kakarot prepare to meet your father in the after life!" yelled the lead Vegeta clone as he and the others fired the charged blasts full speed ahead of them.

The large wave a blasts sliced through the air before coming into contact with its target exploding large amounts of rock and dust into the air as Discord grinned to himself.

"Well that didn't seem to hard. Looks like that's one less thorn in my side." He burst out laughing as he stared at the scene in front of him.

Suddenly without warning all nine of the Gohan's flung themselves out of the dust and each slammed a kick into the closet clone they could find.

Discord mouth shut firmly and gave a dark look as his enemies battled there way through the squad of saiyan princes.

"Well my master it seems that we aren't yet finished with our young troublemaker. Shall we join in the battle." Cell smirked at Discord seeing the annoyed look on his face.

The spirit of chaos sank down into his chair and waved his claw in a go motion. All of the cell clones began their march towards the battle as their master gave a sigh of boredom.

Back with team Gohan the ponies turned humanoids began to use the skills given to them by Luna's spell to cut through the Vegeta clones. They were separated into three teams so they could spread themselves through the battle. (I'm just going to use their names since you know that they are under the transformation spell) Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Big Mac were the first team and were using Gohan's large arm muscles to knock back multiple clones at a time. Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy were using Gohan's memories of martial arts training to crush the clones back into black smoke by using strong kicks. Celestia, Luna, and Twilight made up the last team and were blasting the clones with different energy attacks.

Group one was holding their own very well as the battle continued. Though Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie were new to whole fighting thing they still were managing to knock down their fair share of clones. Big Mac though was a force to be reckoned with, as he jump right into the thick of battle and was swinging his arms wildly giving a smile as black smoke exploded all around him.

Dash was was enjoying this new fighting thing as she nailed a clone right in the middle of his it's face. As it was exploded she flew into the air and smashed two clones heads together using the momentum to keep herself moving.

Pinkie Pie was having a good time bouncing around and randomly throwing punches. Every time a Vegeta clone managed to get their hands on her she would disappear and reappear right behind it and poof it was gone as she repeated the pattern against another victim.

Group two was having a harder time pushing the enemies back. Applejack not wanting to be outdone by her brother was kicking up a storm trying to knock out as many as she could. It was a much harder task when she was in a body that didn't feel familiar to her. Gohan's legs were much longer than her short legs so kicking required a whole lot more force but as long as she got her sister back she didn't care.

Rarity was trying to stop herself from complaining about her current situation. The blast from the clones had knocked up a lot of dirt and dust all over her which made her feel gritty. Also the outfit that Gohan was wearing was tight and heavy which caused her to slump as she kicked her way through the hordes of enemies. She swore that when this was all over, she and Gohan would have a long talk about fashion and what not to wear.

Fluttershy did not enjoy the fighting one bit. She didn't like hurting any living creature but she knew that she had no choice. She flipped her way through the battleground closing her eyes as she delivered kick after kick to anything in her path. Her face twisted as she felt her newly obtained feet connect with a sickening crunch with a large heavy object. Slowly opening one eye she could make out the shape of a falling creature that burst into a puff of black smoke. Realizing that she had taken out a clone she breathed a sigh of relief and congratulated herself for making herself useful. "I...I did it, but I still wish we didn't have to be so violent." She thought and continued to kick all around her.

Group three was in amazement at how powerful the energy blasts they were using. Twilight was focusing a bright yellow ball of energy before releasing it with a small grunt into a large concentration of clones. A look of satisfaction appeared onto her face as she wondered why Gohan would want to hide his abilities if they were this great. Once again she was reminded of Fluttershy's words and the wisdom that they carried. "I guess it would be hard to fit in if everyone knew that you had the power to blow up maintains with your bare hands." she thought and continued with task at hand.

Princess Celestia was blowing away the evil in front of her by focusing a orb a blue energy into both of her hands and releasing it in a long power wave. Going through the memories she had obtained by the spell she learned that the move was called the Kamehameha wave and was by far one of the most dangerous techniques in Gohan's arsenal. The blast did a good job of disintegrating everything that dared to step in her path but at the same time she felt slightly weak after using it. She figured that it was a move that she should use only when needed. Still she wondered how Gohan managed to use these powers of his. It was just too much for a boy such as him to have to contain. No wonder he didn't talk about his life, he probrably dealt with things like all the time. Returning her mind to the battle she started using low powered energy blasts to eliminate her foes.

Princess Luna had followed her sister's example and was looking into Gohan's memories for a good move to use against the Vegetas. She finally settled for a move called the Masenko which was Gohan's signature attack. Quickly raising her hands up and crossing them she gathered energy together and shot it straight towards the clones watching as they disappeared. She did not stop to gloat at her accomplishment because of her worry over Gohan. Since she had gained his body through her spell she had been learning about him through his memories. She watched his life through his eyes and was shocked at the things he had been put through. She just wanted to hold him and make him forget all of his problems. "Well my dear if we are ever going spend some alone time with our beloved Gohan then we will have to eliminate all of these distractions." Nightmare Moon spoke from inside her mind. Luna tried her best to ignore her as she concentrated on the battle.

Each squad tried their hardest to reduce the amount of enemies that stood in their paths but for every three clones that they took down, seven more rose to take their place. Celestia tried to think of a plan that could place the odds in their favor, and end the Vegeta clones once and for all.

Moving towards Twilight she whispered into her ear "Twilight Sparkle gather all of the others together, I may have a plan that can help us.".

Twilight nodded and flew to the others whispering Celestia's order to each of them. They each nodded and made their way closer to their princess.

As Twilight completed her mission, Celestia charged a large energy blast into her hands and blasted a large hole into the ground in front of her creating a large dust smokescreen. Smiling that the clones could no longer see them Celestia turned to address the others.

"Alright everyone if we are going to put these things down then we will have to combine all of our powers into one blast and take them out in one fell swoop." Celestia whispered to the others watching all but Twilight nod in approval.

"Princess what about the green monsters!? If we use too much of our power we won't be able to keep this form, much less defeat all of them and Discord." Twilight whispered in a worried tone.

Celestia looked at her student encouragingly as she clasped her hand "Twilight it is our duty to keep Equestria safe. If there is anything we can do to keep the place that we love protected then we must try it.".

Smiling back Twilight new that the princess was right. Nodding to the others they each gathered themselves into a line. The smokescreen had finally faded and the Vegeta clones were visible with the Cell clones closing in on their position.

All nine Gohan's placed their hands in a cupped position behind their back and started to charge the familiar blue energy. The air was thick as they all started chanting the name of the attack.

"KAME"...they started as the lead Cell clone opened his eyes wide from the front the other clones. He wondered why the other clones didn't recognize the signature move of Goku. It was only the move that managed to obliterate the real version of themselves. Moving closer to the battlefield he suddenly hatched a plan inside of his head.

"HAME"...Discord was confused as he watched his multiple enemies. Usually he look into his opponent's mind to learn what their next move was but this time was different. It was as if a wall was put into place to stop him from diving into their secrets. But Gohan shouldn't know how to block his mind reading techniques. In fact the only pony that had every been able to truly resist the technique was the Princess Celes...

"Oh that sneaky little pony found a way to fake the challenge. Looks like it's time for me to do a little recovery mission to make things more interesting." Discord thought and vanished in a large puff of smoke.

Just as he disappeared the ponies uttered a earth shattering "HA" and concentrated nine different Kamehameha waves into one gigantic blast aimed directly at the clone army. The gigantic beam of energy cut through the air as it made it came in contact with the whole force of Vegeta clones blowing forth a cloud of shadow energy into the air.

The blast continued on until it was directly in the path of the cell clones. The lead Cell clone grinned as blast connected with his clones brother. More shadow energy appeared in the air as the blast cut through the cell clones and burned itself out into nothingness.

The ponies all dropped their arms down in exhaustion as they observed the empty battlefield. As they all tried to catch their breaths, their bodies started glowing and could feel a familiar stinging sensation throughout their bodies.

With a loud pop the glowing light disappeared as the ponies dropped to the ground each in their original bodies.

"Well that's it everyone, we have no power left over to use against Discord." groaned Big Mac rubbing his aching head.

Princess Celestia shook her head as she limped over to the mane six.

"Twilight it is up to you and your friends now. Remember the elements of harmony are the only things that can seal away discord, as long as you believe in yourself and your friends I know you can defeat him." she finished and hugged her student tight.

Twilight enjoyed the warmth she got from her closest friend, it gave her another reason to keep trying just to make her smile.

Slowly letting go Twilight addressed her friends in a serious manner "Everypony this will be the most important battle of our lives. We cannot allow Discord to destroy everything that pony-kind has worked so hard to build. We are the only things standing between chaos and disharmony and we must bring order back to Equestria. So who is with me!?".

"I am Twi!" Applejack Spoke placing her hoof on top of Twilight's.

"Count me in too!" Shouted Rainbow Dash as she hovered in the air and placed her hoof in the circle.

"Well what kind of a lady would I be if I didn't stand with my friends?" Questioned Rarity softly placing her hoof with the others.

"I'll do anything I can to help." Whispered Fluttershy following her friends example.

"All for one, and one for all!" Came the excited laugh from Pinkie Pie and stamped her hoof onto the others.

Twilight smiled at all of them "Well then let's kick Discord's scaly butt and rescue our little friends!".

They broke the circle and all gave a cheer of encouragement and prepared to storm after Discord.

"Hahaha I'm afraid thinks just aren't that simple My little ponies!" Came a voice from out of nowhere.

Looking up they all watched in horror as a final Cell clone absorbed all of the dark energy from the air.

"Seeing as how I am now the most powerful being on this battlefield I will have fun crushing every bone in your small weak bodies!" Cell laughed and flung himself from the building he was standing on.

Twilight only had one thought in her head...this was going to hurt badly.

---

Well everybody a month in a half later we have a new update. Do not worry there will be another update by Wednesday so be prepared for another chapter really soon. (P.s Sorry for referencing the title of the show in the story lol.)

Alright people I am sorry for horrible delay. I am really sick right now and have not been up to writing in awhile. I sucked it up last night and wrote this whole chapter so I can at least please the people who have been dieing to see a new chapter. This chapter probrably won't be the best thing you read in this story and I apologize but please cut me some slack.

---

"This is not good!" Twilight exclaimed loudly seeing their huge new problem.

The blast had managed to destroy all of the clones except for one single Cell. Now he had absorbed the very essence of all of his brethren and now threatened to rival his original self. They all watched in horror as the creatures muscles bulged and swelled.

"Well little pony I have to say you had a very clever plan pretending to be that half-saiyan brat but unfortunately it looks like your little magic act is at an end." Cell laughed cracking his neck, followed by his knuckles.

Each of the ponies faces turned serious as they looked to Twilight for what to do next. She furrowed her brow and finally gave a command.

"Alright girls let's show him what we've got, activate the power of the Elements of Harmony!" she yelled and waited for them to get into position.

Cell watched them with interest, eager to know what they were trying to accomplish. Suddenly as the last pony fell into place each of their golden elements gave a powerful glow before firing a large rainbow color beam straight into the air.

He watched as the beam arched and rocketed straight for him as he braced for impact. The blast increased in speed before finally exploding on contact sending out a large puff of smoke right into the faces of the ponies.

"Cough, Cough...did we get him?" Asked Rainbow Dash rubbing her eyes with her hoof.

Twilight had trouble seeing through the thick fog to tell if they had won. Silence filled the air as the ponies watched the cloud.

"...If that's the best you pathetic creatures can offer then I'm afraid that this is already over!" Cell menacingly laughed as he stepped through the dust.

Applejack grew angry at his taunting "Let's see if you have what it takes to tango with the wildest pony in Ponyville!". She took off at high speed towards the grasshopper monster before jumping up in the air to deliver a high kick to him.

Cell smirked as he fazed out of the way of her kick. Applejack was shocked that a creature could move so fast. The next feeling that she felt was a painful crush in her stomach as Cell had appeared behind her and kicked her into the side of a cliff.

"APPLEJACK!" Rainbow Dash yelled as she flew at Cell in a blind rage.

Cell only laughed harder as he threw a ki blast straight for the rainbow pony.

"Do you really think I'm going to fall for that little trick!?" Dash gritted out of her teeth as she maneuvered herself out of the way of his attack. The other ponies watched with worried eyes as the creature continued to toy with them.

"Twilight...do you think that Dashy can handle him by herself?" Pinkie asked her friend, her hair falling into her sad position.

Twilight looked at her with a blank face as spoke "I don't know Pinkie...I just don't know.".

Rainbow Dash continued on her path towards Cell, but had the strange feeling that something was following her. Sharply turning her head her eyes widened as the blast that cell threw had changed directions and had collided with her body.

The explosion had blinded her and the pain that followed was comparable to having her body scorched by the sun. She fell out of the sky like a brick and collided with the ground with a loud thud.

"Dashie!" Pinkie Pie screamed as she ran towards her friend with Twilight following close behind.

Fluttershy too afraid to follow hid behind a rock in shame. Tears started to fall from her face as she imagined the worse case scenario for her friend. She wished things could go back to the way they were when she lived in peace with her friends.

Peeking out from behind the rock she watched in horror at the scene that was playing out before her. Cell was now laughing at Pinkie Pie and Twilight Sparkle as he lifted them in the air by their throats.

"Alright you spineless insects as fun as it would be to crush you and be done with it, I have unfinished business with that brat Gohan." Cell growled at the two ponies he held in his hands.

"We will never tell you where he is you overgrown grasshopper!" Twilight yelled in defiance as Pinkie nodded in agreement.

"I knew you wouldn't help me willingly, so I will draw him out by doing what I do best." Cell chuckled as he began squeezing tighter around their necks causing them both to scream at the top of their lungs.

Fluttershy began to cry harder as she could do nothing to help her friends. The only one who could help her friends was far from their current locations and unconscious. Little did she know her savior wasn't as out of it as she thought.

As the screams echoed through the empty town the half-sayain hero's face twisted in agony.

(Inside Gohan's head)

A empty void took the place of Gohan's usual mind scape. Instead of the miles of broken and jagged mountain sides there was a empty void of blackness. It was fitting though because swimming in darkness seemed to match Gohan's exact mood.

"How can things get any worse?" Gohan groaned to himself as he continued to fall through the darkness "Thanks to me my friends are going to be killed by those psycho, and I can't even wake up long enough to save them.".

The last time he felt as bad as this was when his father was killed near the end of the cell games. Deeper and deeper into the darkness he fell as his depression grew.

He was just about to give up all hope of saving anyone until something suddenly caught his eye in the distance.

It was a bright light that was slowly growing. He started to feel warmer as it got closer to his position.

Gohan had to shield his eyes from the light which was now surrounding his whole body.

"It is not yet your time to die young one!" A loud voice thundered above him.

Staring up a the source of the voice Gohan realized he was face to face with Shenron the eternal dragon.

"Wha...What do you mean it isn't my time to d...die?" Gohan stuttered out as he stared into the blood red eyes of the dragon.

Shenron smirked and then gave him large toothy grin "Much more than you and your friends lives rest upon this battle. A great evil threatens to awaken and consume this world, much like it did thousands of years ago.".

Gohan was confused about what this has to do with him. Hasn't he already proven how big of a failure he was in trying to save people.

"How can I save my friends lives if I can't even handle a few weak clones. It only took one of them to knock me out, how am I going to beat a whole army of them!?" Gohan growled through clenched teeth, self-loathing could be clearly heard in his voice.

"Son Gohan you were easily defeated because you have lost sight that which makes you strong." Shenron growled and raised one his claws in the air. The dark void around of them twisted and changed until the area turned into a reflection of the cell games.

Gohan watched as the events of that day played out just as he remembered them. He stood there motionless as his friends were assaulted by the swarm of Cell Juniors. It pained him inside knowing that he couldn't stop them before the damage was done. It took Hercule throwing Android 16's head near him for him to finally understand that there was nothing wrong with using violence to protect that which was important to him.

It was then that Gohan understood what the Dragon meant. His transformation into Super Saiyan 2 was a product of his anger at Cell and his desire to protect those he cared about. His eyes shot open after his last thought.

"Shenron, I have to hurry and save my friends from Discord and his clones!" The half-saiyan yelled to Shenron as the dragon gave him a toothy smile.

"So young one, you finally understand what your purpose is and why you cannot fail." He spoke to Gohan receiving a nod from him "Very well, I will send you back into the conscious realm, just know that one Discord is defeated there will be those even more powerful than him eager to claim the land as their own."

Gohan frowned at his warning but again just nodded. Shenron's eyes glowed a deep red and let a growl erupt from his mouth as Gohan felt himself slowly waking up.

(Back inside the hospital)

Cheerilee was sitting silently in the corner of the room she was sharing with Gohan motionless body. All she could think of was the danger that her students were in, and what would happen if Twilight and the others failed.

She rubbed her hooves against her eyes trying to stop the tears from raining down her face. She wished that there was some way she could help but what could a pony who has never fought anything do against a spirit of chaos and his evil monsters?

Her thoughts were interuppted as she heard a groan coming from the bed across the room. Slowly she walked over to Gohan's body and stared at him cautiously. Suddenly she let out of a loud shriek as Gohan's eyes shot wide open and he leaned up in bed.

"You're awake!" Cheerilee gasped out surprised that was able to recover so quickly.

Gohan quickly jumped out of bed and stretched "Yes I guess I am...where are the others?" he questioned.

Cheerilee shakily tried to stand straight up as the shock at sent her toppled over on the ground. As soon as she was steady she answered Gohan's question "They all went to go rescue the fillies since you were knocked out."

Gohan's eyes opened wide "I need to get down there to them!."

He was about to run outside but was stopped as Cheerilee called for him "Gohan please rescue everyone...and please be careful." she softly said to them.

Flashing her the famous Son grin Gohan gave her the thumbs up sign and continued on his way taking off into the sky as soon as he made it outside.

Cheerilee watched as he slowly disappeared from her sight and gave a sigh "I hope that everyone will be okay." she said to herself.

"Oh it's not them you should be worrying about right now!" A voice called out from behind her.

Spinning around quickly to find the source of the voice her face quickly turned fearful "No...Not you!"

(Back at the battle with Cell)

Fluttershy and Rarity watched in horror as her two friends were being strangled right before their eyes and they could do nothing to stop it as the android continued to taunt them.

"Do you see now you little insignificant little runts!? You little hero Gohan is too afraid of my power to even show up to save your pathetic lives, can't say I blame him though. I am the strongest being in the universe, so no one can challenge my might!" Cell laughed as his grip on the two ponies throats tightened.

Both Pinky Pie and Twilight gave a choked cough as they felt all of the air leave their body.

Tears were now flowing down Fluttershy's face and screamed the loudest she possibly could "GOHAN PLEASE HELP US!".

Almost as fast as the words left her lips Cell was sent flying into a building, dropping the two ponies onto the ground.

The android pulled himself out of the rubble and angrily growled "Who dares knock the almighty Cell to the ground!?".

Looking around he saw no one until laughter caused him to look up shocked.

"What's wrong Cell, can't stand it when your not the only one giving sneak attacks!?" Gohan called out standing in the spot Cell was in, already transformed into his super saiyan form.

"Gohan!" Fluttershy happily yelled and ran to his side hugging him tightly.

Looking around he could see his friends laying injured on the ground.

"Fluttershy did he do this to all of you?" he asked her softly receiving a nod from the still sobbing pegasus pony.

"We're sorry Gohan we tried our very best to stop him but our powers weren't strong enough to even slow him down." Rarity spoke softly feeling ashamed.

Her breath caught in her throat as Gohan wrapped his arms around both her and Fluttershy enveloping them into a tight hug.

"It's okay there is no need to apologize, we have to worry about getting you all fixed up." Gohan gently told them and let his energy flair around him.

Before they could question what he was doing Gohan raised both of his arms into and a different wave of energy shot out and covered each of the ponies. Both Rarity and Fluttershy could feel the warmth of his energy as their wounds slowly closed up and their strength returned.

Looking to their friends they were happy to see the same thing happening to them too. Soon everyone was back on their feet and had gathered around Gohan.

"How did you manage to fix us up that fast Gohan?" Applejack questioned with clear amazement in her eyes.

Rainbow Dash hovered up to his face with a small blush forming across her face "Yeah Gohan, and how did you get your hair to turn blond like that?".

Rarity brushed herself up against his side and sported a blush to match Rainbow Dash's "I think it makes you look marvelous darling, though we really do have to talk about your outfit.".

"Alright girls we may be fine now but we still have to deal with the monster standing over there." Spoke Twilight Sparkle pointing a hoof at Cell who had finally dug himself out of the destroyed building she recognized as Pinkie's bakery.

Gohan raised an arm up in front of them before speaking "No everyone this is my fight, besides you will need all the energy you possibly have to defeat discord.".

"No way Gohan we are your friends, and we will stick with you till the very end." Applejack said placing her hoof on his chest and looking into his eyes.

Gohan was taking back at her response and gave a sad smile. He was so happy to have friends like them who were willing to risk harm to themselves just to be near him. It also made him even more angry that Cell would dare lay his vile hands on them.

"Everyone...thank you for believing in me and being my friends. I promise that I will make him pay for hurting any of you and destroying this beautiful town!" Gohan angrily spoke and felt his power level raising higher and higher.

Clenching his fist Gohan let out a mighty yell as his muscles doubled in size and his hair became even more spiked and started to stand on end.

Pinkie Pie let out a giggle as small amounts of electricity started to crackle in the air. The other ponies stood with their mouths open as they watched their friend increase his already awe inspiring power.

Finally the transformation was over as Gohan assumed a battle stance and launched himself at the still surprised Cell knocking him straight into the air at high speed.

"Wow I didn't even see him move that is so cool!" Said Rainbow Dash jumping up and down excitedly.

Fluttershy was silent and concerned. She hoped that Gohan could defeat Cell without getting injured.

"I can see you are worried about him too aren't you little Fluttershy?" A voice spoke from behind Fluttershy. Turning around fast she was met by the concerned eyes of both Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna.

"Princess Celestia!" Twilight Sparkle called out and ran to hug her teacher.

The Alicorn wrapped a hoof around her friend and then addressed the others "I'm guessing that our friend Gohan is awake and battling that monster?".

"Yes princess we wanted to help him but he insisted on fighting it by himself." Twilight finished looking into the sky with worry.

Luna stepped forward and placed hoof onto Twilight's shoulder, giving her a small smile "Do not worry Twilight Sparkle. We must all have faith that Gohan can take care of himself.".

Twilight knew that she was right but she still wished that Gohan didn't feel the need to do everything himself. If there was one thing she had learned in her time living in ponyville it was the friends have to be there for each other no matter how scary the situation is.

"Did any of you look at Gohan's memories while we were transformed as him?" She asked with a frown on her face.

The other ponies looked at the ground with sad faces. Yes each of them had seen the events that led to Gohan being stranded in their world, and each of them understood why he did not speak of the matters.

"It's just not right how that poor little guy was blamed with everything that happened." Said Applejack an angry look plastered onto her face.

Fluttershy nodded "I know Applejack it's not fair at all, as far as I'm concerned he is a hero and should be treated as such.".

Each of the ponies agreed as Celestia gave a small smirk "Well girls if we all feel the same way, then I have a plan that will ensure that Gohan gets the love and praise that he deserves.".

All of them gathered into a close circle eager to hear Celestia revealed her plan to them.

(With Gohan and Cell)

After the bone crunching punch Gohan delivered to Cell, the android found himself sailing through the air at high speed.

"Damn you boy, it's going to take more than that to beat me!" Cell yelled using his wings to stop himself.

Looking around he tried to lock on the location of his nemesis but was met with a empty sky. He started to get angry as he continued his search. Suddenly a flurry of ki blasts rained down on him from above.

Thinking fast he quickly dodged his way through the volley of yellow energy angrily trying to find Gohan.

"Prepare your self brat!" Cell yelled finally catching sight of his enemy. Pulling back his fist he swung as hard as he could trying to take down Gohan with one blow. The punch connected sending out a sickening echo throughout the land.

Grinning evilly Cell was prepared to call the battle over but was shocked to see Gohan standing perfectly still staring at him.

"I will not forgive you for harming my friends you monster!" Gohan growled grabbing onto Cell's arm and squeezing tightly.

Cell cried out in pain before gritting out a response "You think I give a damn about your forgiveness!? It is only natural for the strong to rise above and crush the weak.". Yanking his arm out of Gohan's grip he swung his leg up and kicked him across the face.

Like before Gohan only stood there motionless as if he was waiting for something to happen.

"Damn it Gohan, stop ignoring me and fight!" Cell screamed and fired a large ball of energy at the Super Saiyan.

The ball made contact and exploded into a large cloud of black smoke.

"Well I guess he really didn't want to live anymore, or else he would have dodged that attack hehe." Cell laughed to himself before turning around and flying off.

Before he could get too far he felt a large disturbance behind him. Quickly turning he was met with a very unwelcome punch to the face by Gohan.

"I told you before I will not forgive you, and I will not let you destroy the place where my friends live!" Gohan yelled before hammering Cell straight down into the Everfree forest making a small crater appear on impact.

Pulling himself out of the dirt Cell gritted his teeth and looked around angry that he had once again lost sight of his target.

"Stop hiding from me, you impudent child!" Cell called out blasting a row of trees out of his path.

"I have no reason to hide from you Cell." Gohan said from behind him leaning against a tree.

A vein popped inside Cell's head when he saw Gohan acting like he wasn't even in a battle. Roaring loudly he launched himself full force and swiped at Gohan with his tail needle. His anger increased as Gohan teleported out of the way leaving him to slice through another tree toppling it down on his body.

As soon as Gohan reappeared in the air he crossed both of his hand above his ahead "All right Cell, no more games take this, Masenko!". The yellow blast left his hands and soared straight towards the fallen android turning him and the surrounding area into dust.

"One obstacle down, now I have to hurry and save the fillies." Gohan said to himself as he took off as quick as he could back to Ponyville unaware of the gurgling sounds getting louder behind him.

(Back in Ponyville)

"Alright girls we have to save the Cutie Mark Crusaders while we have the chance!" Twilight said determinedly and took off towards the cage where their little friends were being held.

Both Rarity and Applejack soon ran to the front of the pack eager to have their sister's safe and sound. "Imma commin sis!" Applejack said loudly galloping as fast as their legs could take her.

"Don't worry Sweetie Belle your big sister will rescue you!" Said Rarity struggling to keep the pace with her friend.

Princess Luna felt her heart warm as she watched the two so eager to save their siblings. It reminded her of the old days when it was just her and her sister. In those days they were all each other had to fight back the corruption of their land.

Celestia could tell by the look on her sister's face that she was remembering the hardships they faced as young fillies. She loved her sister deeply and would not allow Discord to ever take her away from her ever again.

They both exchanged a glance and gave each other a warm smile that seemed to strengthen their sisterly bond.

Soon the group made it back to the town square and was surprised to see that the cage that the fillies was being held in was opened and empty.

"Where did the girls go?" asked Pinkie Pie rubbing her mane confusedly.

"Well, well, well looking for these?" A voice called out from the top of a tall building.

Looking up they were all surprised to see discord sitting upon a throne holding all three of the crusaders up with one long arm.

"Discord let them go!" Celestia angrily yelled her horn glowing bright.

The spirit of chaos gave her a bored look and relied "Oh Princess I don't think you are in any condition to be giving me orders.". With a snap two large bubbles appeared in front of him.

"He's got Big Mac and Cheerilee!" Said Rarity in disbelief.

"It was really a simple task of catching these two. After you left Big Mac after beating my clones, I just snatched him up without a big fight. Cheerilee was even simpler...especially after your so-called hero took off as fast as he could to rescue all of you." Discord taunted with an evil laugh "The only question is when do I destroy each and every one of you?".

They were all silent for a few moments before a new voice called out from above "You are not destroying anyone discord!".

Looking up Discord barely had time to react before a blast of energy knocked him to the ground causing his grip on the ponies two release.

"Somebody help us!" Screamed Applebloom as she and her friend fell to the ground.

Their prayers were soon answered as Gohan flew in from the sky and scooped them up in their arms. Landing as gracefully as he could, Gohan gently placed the three on the ground.

"Thank you Mr. Gohan!" Sweetie Belle cried out and hugged his leg.

The half-saiyan smiled softly and patted her mane "You're very welcome, now stand back I'm gonna save the others.".

Flying up he kicked both of the bubbles carefully catching the two older ponies and setting them on the ground next to the fillies.

"Well congratulations my young friend, but unfortunately you have made me very cranky and I don't think you will like me when I'm cranky!" Discord growled as his hands started pulsing with chaotic energy.

"Well for once in the time I've known you I agree." Cell's voice rang out surprising everyone.

Discord scowled "I see at least one of you managed to survive. Well don't just stand there, get down here and give me a hand!".

"Hahaha I think I'd rather cut my ties to you while you still live and allow the boy to take care of you!" Cell laughed and then turned towards Gohan "Don't think our battle is over boy! You may have won this day but I will get stronger than you and take my revenge!". Extending his wings Cell flew off with great speed as far as he could into the air retreating to an unknown area.

"If you want something done right you have to do yourself!" Discord screeched and flung himself off his thrown down to the ground below.

Gohan, the mane six, and both princesses all got into battle positions ready to defend themselves against whatever Discord could throw at them.

"Discord give up this pointless fight of yours and leave this place!" Demanded Princess Celestia.

Discord's eyes were glowing red as his anger increased "Don't forget Princess, I have the power of chaos on my side and I doubt your weakling ponies have the potential of defeating me with their limited knowledge of the Elements of Harmony!" he growled as clouds filled the sky and lighting started striking all around them.

Gohan stepped forward in front of his friends ready to protect them no matter what the cost "It doesn't matter if you can defeat each of us by ourselves, because our power gets stronger when we all work together!".

Discord burst out laughing as he heard Gohan's words "So you power gets stronger when you work together does? I guess I will just have to destroy you all at once!" he finished and began to charge up a chaotic energy ball.

Gohan turned around and gave his friends a look of confidence "All right everyone we have to combine all the energy we have to defeat Discord.".

"Alright Gohan let's finish this!" Twilight spoke and stood beside him.

"I believe in you Gohan." Came Fluttershy's shy voice giving him a warm smile.

"Let's kick some flank!" Rainbow Dash yelled and started boxing the air with her hooves.

"I've been wanting to take him out all day!" Applejack smirked.

"Oh I hope this doesn't mess up my mane." Rarity moaned but still stood by her friends.

"Yeah let's beat him so we can have a party!" Pinkie Pie happily spoke and jumped and down.

Princess Luna and Celestia also stood by them charging their magic into their horns.

"Well little sister let's combine our powers once again, just like so long ago." Celestia spoke smiling to her sister.

"Yes elder sister, let's show him the power as the sun and the moon!" Luna smiled back.

Each of them got into position and began to charge their own attacks. Gohan cupped his hands together and began to chant the words "Kamehame...".

The mane six's Element's of Harmony started to glow bright as they prepared to release their energy. At the same time Luna's eyes glowed blue, and Celestia's eyes glowed yellow matching the energy around their horns.

Discord who had finished charging up his attack started to laugh loudly "Well ponies it looks like I win, I would like to say that I would miss you but I'd be lying!" throwing his arms forward a crackling ball of chaos energy erupted from his hand and shot towards Gohan and the others.

Time seemed to move in slow motion as Discord's attack moved through the air. Big Mac and Cheerilee grabbed the fillies and hid inside of a open building trying to shield themselves from the blast.

Just as the ball was a few feet away from the others Gohan yelled out "Ha!" and they all released their attacks in one swift motion.

Almost instantly all three attacks combined together and flowed into a gigantic rainbow color beam. Discord's blast was instantly swallowed by the massive energy wave.

"What!" Discord cried out in disbelief as he watched his attack destroyed in a puff of smoke. Gritting his teeth he pushed his claws out to try and catch the beam itself.

He soon found this to be a major mistake as the beam pushed through and flowed through his entire body. The only sound he could let out was a choked cry of pain as he felt his body disintegrating before his very eyes.

As the last particle disappeared the blast push itself in the sky above before exploding in a massive white explosion.

Gohan and the other stared in silence as the cloud of energy slowly started to envelop everything before all of them were knocked to the ground with massive amount of force.

The last thing Gohan could feel before blacking out was something furry moving around his body.

(6 hours later)

"Gohan...Gohan...Gohan!" A voice called out waking Gohan up from his slumber.

"Wha...What happened!?" He asked around trying to regain his eye sight. He could feel that he was laying on a soft bed, but he didn't recognize his location.

"We are so glad you are awake, after we beat Discord the resulting blast changed our bodies DNA." He could finally recognize the voice as Twilight Sparkle, but what did she mean that their DNA had been changed.

Sitting up as fast as he could he rubbed his eyes and started to look around the room. What he saw cause him to fall face down onto the floor.

Quickly standing up as fast as he could he was met by the concerned eyes of his newly changed friends. Rather than standing on all four hooves they each were standing straight up. Their front hooves had been changed from their normal shape into arms and hands. Their faces stayed basically the same as they were, and Fluttershy,Rainbow Dash, Celestia, and Luna wings were larger.

Gohan face turned beet red as he realized that none of them were a single stitch of clothing and their bodies had adjusted themselves to become more womanly with a sizable increase to their chests.

Looking away he tried to get some answers from Twilight "Twi...Twilight why do you all look so...different?".

She walked closer to him to better explain the situation "Well Gohan I can't be certain but if I had to guess I would have to say that the energy feedback from the big burst of energy we released caused a large enough shock wave to flow all across Equestria, combining our pony DNA with whatever DNA lies inside your body." Twilight finished worried why Gohan's nose had a steady stream of blood flowing down his nose.

Pinkie Pie ran over and jumped on Gohan's back "Not only that Gohan, it also caused you to grow a monkey tail!" the pink party pony laughed and poked at his tail with her newly obtained fingers.

Looking behind him Gohan could see that indeed his tail had grown back and was curling around Pinkie Pie's arm.

"We aren't the only ones that the blast affected either. As far as we know everypony in Equestria has been transformed." Said Twilight pacing around the room concentrating hard for a more concrete explanation.

The sound of a throat clearing interuppted them as Princess Celestia walked into the room "Well Gohan it seems once again you have made things a bit more interesting for us. Now that you are awake there are a few things that we must discuss." she finished with a smirk.

Gohan gulped after seeing the look on her face "I have a lot of explaining to do don't I?" he asked earning a nod from each of them.

---

Well people I hope this can please at least sum of the you and for those who are not pleased I promise that things will get better.

Alright everyone I am all better and ready to start writing normally again. I am surprised at the amount of praise I had gotten for the last chapter. Yes the Discord arc is over and things are getting back to the usual pony way of life. With one small exception...everypony has now be transformed into a half-human/half-pony mix. How will things affect Gohan and his friends lives? Read and find out!

My little Gohan

Chapter 10: The Transition

"YAAAAWN!" Gohan breathed out as he awoke from his slumber.

After he and the other ponies defeated Discord, Princess Celestia invited all of them to stay at the castle until they could think of a solution for their predicament.

Thanks to their combined charge of energy every pony in Equestria had been infused with his human DNA turning them into a mix of the two species. Too make matters worse their bodies had defined themselves with clear gender characteristics.

Looking around the room Gohan could see that all of his friends laying naked in the room around him. Silently he climb out of bed as to not wake up the sleeping girls around him.

"Hmm, wait a minute where is Rarity?" He whispered to himself as he walked out of the bedroom that was given to him by Celestia.

The minute he walked out of his room the first thing he noticed was the massive confusion of the castle servants struggling to get used to walking on two legs. Maneuvering himself through the large amount of ponies that were tripping over themselves Gohan soon found himself in the main hall.

He wondered to himself what he should do while he waited for his friends to wake up.

"Excuse me sir!" A voice called out behind him. Turning around quickly he was met with a pair of strong eyes. A unicorn pony with a red and gold guard suit stood in front of him.

"Um... Is there anything I can help you with?" Gohan asked feeling the pony's eyes observing him like a hawk.

After a brief moment of silence he spoke again "I have been instructed to escort you to Princess Celestia personal chambers.".

He turned around fast and motioned for Gohan to follow him. As they were walking Gohan noticed that every guard that passed them stopped and saluted before moving on their way.

"Wow you must pretty important for every guard to keep saluting you like this." Gohan said trying to strike up a conversation with the currently silent unicorn.

"I am the Captain of the Royal Guard in charge of ensuring the safety of Princess Celestia." He spoke without turning his head. He seemed to have adapted to the walking problem very quickly and was moving through the crowd with effortless ease.

They stayed silent for the rest of the walk and within moments found themselves at the large door to Celestia's chamber.

The two guards stepped aside to allow their entrance and the door slowly opened.

"Princess I have brought the guest as you have requested." The Pony said with a bow.

Princess Celestia sat up from her position on her bed happy to see her friend "Thank you Shining Armor that will be all.".

With the bow he left the room to return to his duties leaving Gohan and Celestia alone.

"So Gohan as I recall yesterday we were about to have a talk about the recent events that have befallen the ponies of Equestria." The princess spoke and signaled for Gohan to have a seat next to her on her bed "As Twilight has said before the feedback from the blast we used to defeat Discord had an effect on the DNA of all the ponies.".

Gohan sat silently fidgeting with his fingers trying to avoid looking at the nude princess. Celestia noticed the red look on Gohan's face and giggled to herself before continuing to speak.

"If you are wondering what this has to do with you, then I will explain. As you can see no pony has clothing that can hide our now developed bodies so we have enlisted the help of Rarity to create new clothing for us all." She finished and removed herself from the bed standing in front of Gohan.

Gohan however was still confused about what she needed from him "So what do you need me to do?".

Celestia clapped her hands together and gave him a large smile "Well since you asked, we would like you to be a model for the new clothing lines.".

Gohan looked confused "I'm not sure why I would be the best choice to become a model." he said and started rubbing the back of his head.

"Well Gohan as you can see from the ponies outside none of them have gotten used to moving like you on two legs. Any attempts to use one of the fashion models from Ponyville would just end in disaster." Celestia reasoned and used her own wobbling form as an example.

"But Princess I've never modeled anything before, I wouldn't know where to start." Gohan moaned nervous about this new task.

The Princess grinned and used her newly obtained fingers to run a trail up Gohan's arm "Don't worry you will be fine, just try out some new outfits for Rarity and give your opinions about what needs to be improved.".

Gohan was about to complain again but was stopped by a voice coming from the doorway "Yes darling, and we must simply get you out of those rags you are wearing.".

Looking towards the door he could see Rarity using her magic to levitate a big box of fabrics.

"Alright Gohan, no more dillydallying we have a lot of work to do and a short amount of time to do it!" The Fashionista pony ordered and grabbed onto him pulling him toward the door.

Celestia gave them a small grin and waved as they disappeared through the doorway with Gohan complaining the whole way "Have fun you two hehehe.".

(Inside the Castle's fabric room)

Gohan found himself up against the wall in his boxers as Rarity started to measure his body.

"Um Rarity, is it necessary for me to only be in my underwear?" He asked feeling self conscious about having the still naked seamstress running her hands up and down his body.

Rarity grinned softly to herself and answered "Relax Gohan, if you had left those rags on then I couldn't accurately find your measurements.".

Gohan blushed a deep red as she continued to take his measurements. After about five minutes she finally stopped and went to a table and began to work on a few outfits.

"So why use my measurements instead of the other ponies, I mean aren't these close going to be made for them.". Asked Gohan watching as she started to stitch together fabric with great concentration.

Rarity continued to work and gave him an answer without looking up from her work "Well Gohan, this outfit I am putting together right now is to replace that tacky outfit that you were wearing. As for the reason that you are modeling for me is that we already tried to use some of the guards here at the castle but unfortunately they can't stand up long enough for me to get you measurements.".

"I guess that makes sense. By the way how is that you are adjusting to the change better than everyone else?" Gohan asked amazed that she was already almost finished working.

Rarity gave him a wide smile before running a hand through her well styled mane "Progress doesn't stop just because my body changes. I have spent the entire night learning to keep myself balanced and getting used to these new finger things that we have been given. Truth be told I can work twice as fast as I usually can thanks to this.".

Taken off her glasses and placing them down onto the table she lifted her first new work of art up and presented it to Gohan.

"Here we are darling, since as I recall you loved my costume that I made for you for the Gala I have specially customized this outfit to be just like it." Rarity smiled as he watched his light up.

True enough he was presented with both a shirt and a pair of pants. They both were shimmering like starlight and were a midnight blue color. Smiling softly Gohan placed the clothes down and wrapped Rarity in a tight hug.

Rarity gasped as she felt the strong arms wrap around her. She didn't move an inch for almost a minute before returning the hug with a blush.

"Well now, are you that happy over one little outfit." She chuckled.

Letting her go softly Gohan started rubbing the back of his head "Sorry, it's just that no one has ever made me something as cool as this.".

Rarity gave a sad smile as she remembered the conversation that she and her friends spoke about the night before. Each of them wanting to know more about their new human friend had looked into some of his recent memories since the Cell games. While transformed into a copy of Gohan they all were met with rather unpleasant memories of Gohan being beaten and abused by his mother and the people he used to call his friends.

The girls then spent a good portion of the night talking about the things they saw while Gohan slept peacefully. Even Pinkie Pie didn't dare disturb him, as he had earned his sleep and much more. She remembered that Celestia had told them all to meet together the next night so they could have a very important talk with Gohan. She wondered what they would discuss as her mind was brought back to the present.

"Think nothing of it Gohan, if it wasn't for you Equestria would be doomed and my sister wouldn't be safe." She told him twirling a strand of her hair with her finger.

Gohan eyes snapped open as Rarity spoke about the sister "Oh my god what happened to Big Mac and the others after we beat Discord!?.".

Rarity covered her mouth with her hand holding back a laugh "It's alright Gohan, they are here at the castle too. I believe that they are all recovering in the castle medical wing with only minor injuries. Which reminds me Sweetie Belle wanted to thank you for saving all of them, so make sure you go see her.".

"Alright are you sure that don't need me to do anything else?" Gohan asked.

"Nope I will be pretty busy making new outfits all day so I will be here for awhile, but you go ahead." Rarity said and watched him put on his new clothes.

With a wave Gohan walked out the door and made his wave to the medical wing.

"Just you wait Gohan, soon you will have more than one lovestruck pony coming after you." She smiled and began to work on more fabric.

(Medical Wing)

"These bandages are itchy!" Moaned Applebloom roughly scratching her arms.

Scootaloo looked at her with annoyed eyes "Well your burns won't get any better if you keep scratching at them all.".

Sweetie Belle sat on her own little bed and giggled at her friends antics "You two have been at it since you woke up, how about giving it a rest?".

Applebloom and Scootaloo gave each other a look and then threw a pillow at Sweetie Belle knocking her off her bed and onto the floor.

"All right that's it!" The fallen pony yelled grabbing a pillow and jumping towards her friends.

The three continued their pillow fight as Big Mac and Cheerilee laughed in amusement.

"Well it's good to see that they are enjoying themselves despite all that's happened." Said Cheerilee leaning back down to rest on her pillow.

"Eeyup." Smiled Big Mac doing the same.

Thanks to them hiding in a small building as the others blasted Discord they were able to escape the battle with only minor injuries. Big Mac and Cheerilee had sprained legs while the fillies got by with just small burns and a couple bruises.

Suddenly from across the room the door opened slowly as Gohan walked into the room.

"Mr. Gohan!" Sweetie Belle happily called and ran to give him a hug "Thank you for saving us yesterday!".

The half saiyan returned the hug with a smile "Don't mention it, it's my job to save people.". Looking at the bandages that covered their bodies Gohan became worried "Are you all injured because the attack we used against Discord?".

"It wasn't your fault Gohan, besides we look worse than we actually are." Cheerilee spoke trying to reassure the frowning boy.

"Cheerilee is right Gohan, if you hadn't of helped the others beat Discord we probrably wouldn't have survived him, and that monster that was with him." Big Mac spoke leaning up on one arm.

Scootaloo pulled a pillow off of her head and agreed "Yeah what was that creepy green thing anyway?"

Gohan's face scrunched up as the memories of Cell played in his head.

Seeing that this was a sensitive subject for him, Cheerilee tried to quickly change the conversation "Girls I think that it is time for us all to get some rest. Thanks for dropping by Gohan we hope that you will come visit us again when our wounds heal.".

Gohan smiled gratefully as he nodded and waved goodbye to everyone. The fillies moaned sadly not wanting their new hero to leave.

"Do you really have to go Gohan?" Asked Applebloom giving him her best puppy dog eyes.

Gohan gave her a soft smile and patted her on the head "Don't worry Applebloom, I will come back a little bit later to see you all again.".

The Cutie Mark Crusaders gave a loud whoop as the waved goodbye to him as he disappeared back through the door.

As he walked through the hallways back to his room Gohan couldn't help but wonder where the last Cell clone had disappeared to and how strong he would be the next time the meet.

(Back in Gohan's room)

"I wonder where Gohan went?" Twilight spoke as she and her friends finally awoke.

Fluttershy stood up stretching before answering her friend "If I can recall, I believe he is helping Rarity with creating new clothes for everyone.".

"I hope Rarity doesn't try and make me any sissy girl clothes." Applejack moaned as she pulled herself from the floor and dropped down onto Gohan's bed, tipping her hat onto her face.

Twilight have a sigh and started to walked around the room trying to get used to her changed body "I still can't believe our bodies changed like this." she said and did a small spin "Was it as hard for Gohan to get used to be a pony for the short amount of time that he was?".

"It was somewhat of a challenge believe me." Gohan called as he stepped into the room.

"Gohan!" Fluttershy almost yelled and jumped across the room to give him a tight hug.

Gohan could feel the air leave his lungs as her arms tightened around him. Pinkie Pie laughed as the Saiyan turned a light blue before Twilight jumped between the two and pried them apart.

"Fluttershy any tighter and he will be right back in the hospital!" Twilight scolded as Fluttershy continued to reach for Gohan.

The pink maned pony smiled at her friend before apologizing "I'm sorry, it's just that I was so worried about how you were feeling after the battle yesterday.".

Gohan returned the smile glad to see that his friends were still worried about him " I'm perfectly fine Fluttershy, I was able to get through the entire fight with just a few bruises.".

Pinkie Pie started bouncing around the room and landed onto his back "Hey Gohan go blond again, it makes you look cuter!".

Gohan blushed lightly as Pinkie Pie complimented him. Focusing his energy Gohan powered up into his sustained super saiyan form.

"How are you able to do that Gohan?" Asked Twilight amazed at his transformation.

"Yes Gohan, I believe we are all curious about your transformation." A voice said from behind him.

Turning around they were all met by Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, and Rarity who was using her magic to carry nine wrapped boxes behind her.

"Sorry to interrupt the story everypony but I believe you will all enjoy these presents." Rarity said and passed the boxes to everyone.

They all tore into them at the same time as their eyes lit up in wonder at what they found.

Inside each of the fancily crafted boxes was a new outfit for each of the girls and Gohan. *(Don't ask me how Rarity knows what the clothing styles are!)*

Twilight's outfit consisted of a purple schoolgirl's outfit with matching skirt. Pinkie Pie grinned happily at her knew bubblegum pink t-shirt and blue jean combo. Applejack began putting on her checkered sleeveless top with Daisy Dukes. Fluttershy shyly slipped on her long yellow dress with flower designs. Rainbow Dash put on her Rainbow colored sweatshirt and sweatpants. Rarity's clothing was an elaborate violet dress and hat combo that was laced in many different gems. Princess Celestia and Princess Luna dresses were the opposites of each other. One was as bright as the sun and the other shimmered like the moon.

As each of the girls thanked Rarity and helped each other dress into their new outfits they noticed Gohan holding his box and staring down at the ground in an embarrassed manner.

"What's wrong Gohan do you not adore your new outfit?" Asked Rarity hoping that she did not disappoint him.

"Um..it's not that it's just...I don't think it would be polite to change in front of ladies." Gohan said still staring at the ground.

Celestia grinned at how cute Gohan was making himself appear "All right everypony turn around so Gohan can change into his new clothes.".

Both Luna and Fluttershy inwardly groaned as they all averted their eyes from the young half-saiyan. After about a minute of waiting Gohan cleared his throat and they all turned to face him and gave a coo in awe.

Standing before them was Gohan in the most fanciest outfit they had ever seen. Like at the Gala the outfit resembled a knight's armor but with a few small changes.

The shirt now was a mix of a shimmering sky on one side and a bright fiery sun on the other. Pants now joined the outfit and followed the color scheme of the shirt. On his hands and feet were golden gloves and boots that were made out of the softest fabrics Rarity could find.

"You look very handsome Gohan!" Celestia softly spoke with a strangle smile and ran her hands up and down his arms.

Luna looked at her sister with jealous eyes as she watched her sister feel up her friend.

"What's wrong...wish you could be doing that instead of her?" Nightmare Moon chuckled from inside Luna's mind.

Luna didn't bothered to reply to her darker self and turned her head away from the sight "Um...Excuse me Gohan I believe you were going to tell us how you were able to transform like you did.".

Gohan breathed a sigh of relief as the awkward situation was diverted.

Celestia gave a small pout as she pulled her arms away from the boy "Yes Gohan we are definitely interested in your abilities.".

Gohan took a very deep breath before dropping down onto the bed "Alright everyone you want to know everything about me and where I come from?" he watched as they all nodded eager for him to continue "Alright you might want to sit down because this will take awhile.".

My Little Gohan

Chapter 11: Answers

"Alright Gohan it's time you told us everything." Twilight Sparkle said taking a seat beside him on the bed.

Gohan nodded and gave a big sigh "Alright everyone gather round it's time you knew all about me.".

They all sat at close to Gohan as they could so they could give him their full attention.

"As you know this is not my world or even my dimension for that matter. I came here from a planet where me and my former friends were apart of a group called the Z-warriors. Our job was to protect the planet from anyone, or anything that would try to harm it." He looked up to see their eyes sparkle with amazement. "A short while ago a being called Cell threatened to destroy all life in the universe and started a tournament called the Cell games, where he would challenge the strongest fighters on earth. On the day of the tournament a man named Hercule challenged Cell thinking that his weak abilities would be enough to stop him...he was wrong. Cell quickly defeated him, challenging my father afterward. Dad fought as hard as he could but knew that even with his power he could not defeat Cell, so he put his faith into me to finish the job."

Celestia gasped "How could someone leave a poor boy with the fate of the universe!?".

The others nodded their heads each with the same thing in mind.

Gohan felt warm inside knowing that they were all worried about his well-being and continued his story. "At first the battle between me and cell was mostly a battle to tire the other person out as we exchanged blow after blow. Eventually I became so sick of the violence that I yelled out that I didn't want to fight anymore. This only seemed to anger Cell as he sent out his little monsters the Cell Jr.'s to hurt my friends. It wasn't until he destroyed one of my friends Android 16 that I finally lost it and transformed into my Super Saiyan 2 form."

Pinkie Pie looked at him with a confused face "Super Saiyan 2?".

"It is one of the transformation that people of my race can go through. My concentrating my energy I can transform and become even more powerful." Gohan explained and transformed into his sustained Super Saiyan form.

The ponies were all amazed by his ability as they watch his hair become spikier and stand on end.

Gohan sat back down as he continued his story "After I transformed I brutally destroyed all of the Cell Jr.'s and then outmatched cell at every turn. I remember that everyone yelled for me to quickly destroy Cell while I had the power to.".

"So did you do it?" asked Rainbow Dash excited to hear more of the story.

Gohan's eyes darkened as he answered "No Rainbow Dash I didn't destroy him when they told me to. I was so angry at Cell for all the pain and destruction he had caused that I started to torture him for as long as I could. I even punched him so hard I caused one of the androids he had absorbed to regurgitate itself out of his body.".

Luna listened intently as Gohan spoke about his rage and fury as Nightmare Moon spoke to her through her mind "It seems that we aren't the only one's who lost themselves to their rage.".

Luna agreed and replied "Yes...but unlike him we weren't pushed into a corner with no way out like he was."

Nightmare Moon remained silent as Gohan story started to wrap itself up.

"After Cell lost a lot of his power I finally decided to end him once and for all, little did I know he had one last trick up his sleeve. Sucking up every last bit of power he had he tried to blow himself and the planet to smithereens. It was then that my father sacrificed himself to move him and cell as far away from earth as he possibly could so everyone would be safe.". Gohan had to stop the story for a second as the pain of that memory came back.

He felt a hand grasp his and looked down to see Fluttershy softly squeezing his hand and giving him a small sad smile.

"Unfortunately the explosion was not enough to destroy Cell as he soon found his way back to my planet and murdered my friend Trunks. This caused his father Vegeta to attack him and rage but even he was no match for the newly recharged Cell. My left arm was damaged saving him from a blast that would have surely killed him. I was just about to give up all hope until my father's spirit spoke to me from the after life. With his encouragement I was finally able to destroy Cell once and for all with a one armed Kamehameha wave." He stopped speaking as Rainbow Dash gave a loud woop showing that she was interested in his story.

"The story isn't over yet Rainbow Dash." Twilight Sparkle said sadly as she stared at the ground.

Rainbow Dash looked at her as if she was crazy "What do you mean it isn't over? He beat the monster, and saved the world how much more could you add onto his story?".

"To answer your question Dash...it gets worse from here. After the Cell Games were over I was ignored and abused by the people I once called my friends. Vegeta beat me almost everyday afterward and my mother even threw me out of my own home. Only one person stood by me and that was my friend Bulma. She gave me a device to find a special item called a Dragonball. Finding all seven of them allows a person to make one wish which I used to leave my home forever. That everyone, is how I ended up here." Gohan finished with a sad look on his face.

Silence filled the air as Gohan sat motionless on the bed. Suddenly two small sniffles were heard.

In less than two seconds Gohan found himself knocked flat on his back as Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie had him in a tight hug.

"How could someone do that to such a sweet person as you?" Pinkie cried burying her head into the side of Gohan's neck.

Applejack and Twilight had to use all of their strength to pull the two sobbing ponies off of Gohan so he could breath.

"Gohan you must not blame yourself for the events of the past. None of what has transpired is your fault, it was wrong of them to place such a responsibility onto your shoulders." Celestia spoke to him clasping his hand into hers.

Gohan couldn't help but smile knowing that at least here no one blamed him for what happened.

Celestia then flashed him a almost evil grin "Although now that I think about I believe that a small punishment is in order for not telling in the first place.".

Gohan gulped as he saw the look on Celestia's face.

"Sister what do you mean punishment!?" Luna angrily asked feeling protective over Gohan's well-being.

Celestia motioned for the other ponies to huddle up into a circle as Gohan sat confused and worried on the bed.

"Sister what are you planning!?" she whispered to her sister.

"Gohan is not in real trouble is he Princess?" Fluttershy asked the now grinning princess.

"No no Fluttershy our dear Gohan is in no trouble at all I just thought it would be fun if each of us had a way to have him to ourselves for a full day." spoke Celestia.

"Not to be rude there princess, but what in the hay are you talking about?" asked Applejack feeling confused.

"It's very simple young Applejack. I can guess that we all feel the same way about Gohan, so what better way for us to get closer to him then to have a day that each of can have him for one perfect date where he is completely at each of our mercy." Celestia smirked as the others looked shock.

"So you are saying that we will make Gohan our date slave for the next week just as an excuse to get closer to him?" Twilight Sparkle asked in disbelief.

Celestia nodded with another grin and spoke again "Well let's spread the good/bad news to our young friend.".

They all broke the circle and went back to stand around Gohan.

"Well Gohan we have all decided for the crime of not being truthful of your origins from the start, we have all decided on your punishment." Celestia spoke trying to be as serious as possible.

Gohan felt all the color leave his face as his heart started pounding in his chest. What kind of punishment could they possibly make him serve and how much danger would he be in?

His eyes were trained onto the princess as she finally spoke again "Your punishment will be...to spend one full day with each of us to create the perfect date.".

Gohan choked on his own spit as he fell to the ground in surprise. Seeing her friend in pain Fluttershy ran into the bathroom and came back with a small glass of water which she then helped Gohan consume.

"I...I...I didn't think he would have reacted like that!" Princess Celestia laughed as clasped her hands over her mouth.

Luna looked at her sister angrily "You could have killed him sister!".

Princess Celestia gave her sister a bored look "Oh you're no fun sis, it was funny and you know it.".

"Ha Ha Ha I must admit it was a hilarious moment." Nightmare Moon laughed from within her.

Luna's brow furrowed as she yelled at her dark half "Quiet you!".

Gohan regained his breath and thanked Fluttershy before sitting back down on the bed "So let me get this straight princess...you want me to serve each of you for one full day and give you all your perfect idea of a date?".

"Precisely, after all we could use a day of pampering after dealing with both a evil spirit of chaos and a murderous psycho." Celestia said while rubbing her sore sides.

Twilight sat with her mouth wide open "Princess you can't be serious! There is no way he can take us out on a individual date when Ponyville is still being rebuilt from the battle, not to mention we still have to prepare for Nightmare Night in a day.".

Princess Celestia thought hard for solution to this dilemma before a almost evil smirk came to her face "Why Twilight Nightmare Night will be the perfect opportunity for a first date, and what better way to celebrate my sister's return than by Gohan to show her how romantic he can be.".

Gohan felt a small trickle of blood run down his nose as he fell back onto the bed. Fluttershy grabbed a tissue from the small table beside the bed and worriedly began to clean his face.

"Oh no Gohan, you poor thing. All this excitement is just to much for you too handle." She said as she dabbed around Gohan's face.

"Sister you almost killed him again!" Luna once again yelled at her sister.

Celestia gave another laugh as she disappeared through the door.

"I just don't understand how she can be way older than me but act like such a little filly." Luna moaned causing the others to giggle.

Rainbow Dash stretched across the bed behind Gohan before asking "So Princess Luna are you exited for tomorrow?".

Luna blushed and clasped her hands together "Well as much as I would love to be accompanied tomorrow, I will not force Gohan to do so against his will.".

"Don't worry princess if tomorrow is a day in your honor, then I would be glad to be your date." Gohan said giving her a thumbs up.

"Awe look she's blushing!" Pinkie Pie grinned as Luna moved to hide or reddening face.

"I...I...I have to um...assume my royal duties!" Luna stammered out quickly disappearing out of the room.

"Was it something I said?" Asked Gohan confused about what was happening as the others laughed and shook their heads.

(Around the castle)

Soon they all went their separate ways, each of them exploring a different section of the castle. Seeing nothing else to do Gohan went back to check on the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

Stepping into the room Gohan watched the comical sight of the three fillies wobbling across the floor.

"Why is this so flippin hard!?" Moaned Applebloom as she struggled to keep her balance.

"Don't worry it will become second nature after a couple days of getting use to the change." Gohan grinned leaning against the wall.

The three fillies stared at him with annoyed looks on their faces.

"How does everypony where your from walk like this?" Scootaloo said resting on the floor.

Gohan shrugged and answered "Well I don't really know it's not something I have ever thought about.".

"Well I preferred it when I had four hooves instead of two to stand on." Applebloom groaned giving up and falling down on her hospital bed.

Sweetie Belle seemed to have a better time adjusting as she took small steps up and down the room "It's not so hard when you get used to the whole balancing thing.".

Both Scootaloo and Applebloom stuck their tongues out at her and began launching a barrage of pillows in her direction.

Gohan laughed as he watched the three fillies argue before turning to look at the two empty beds.

"Where are Big Mac, and Cheerilee?" He asked as the girls settled down.

Applebloom straightened herself up before replying "They said something about not being lazy bones all day, and got up to walk around the castle.".

Gohan was surprised that they were up so early after getting injured the way they did.

"Shouldn't they still be resting?" He asked very surprised.

Scootaloo dusted herself off before answering "That's what we told them but they said it was a grownup thing and left.".

Gohan looked confused "A grownup thing?".

"We didn't understand it either but they were giving each other a weird smile." Applebloom said detaching herself from Sweetie Belle.

Gohan thought long and hard about what it could mean, before blushing as red as a tomato.

"Um...Gohan do you know what they mean?" Applebloom asked.

Gohan shook his head no "Um...it's nothing, I'll see you all later." He said and waved goodbye to them.

As he walked though the door they all stood up.

"Well girls maybe if we can master this new way of walking we can get out cutie marks!" Applebloom said optimistically as the other two just shook their heads at her.

(Hallway)

Gohan moved slowly through the corridors of the castle trying to find the two adult ponies. Even after living in this place for the last week he still didn't know the full layout.

"Now if I were two ponies in love where would I go to be alone?" Gohan asked himself coming to rest at a window.

Looking down into the castle garden Gohan caught a glimpse of two red and purple ponies.

(Garden)

Big Macintosh looked lovingly into Cheerilee eyes as he nuzzled her mane.

"Who's my little sugar cake?" He asked her softly.

Cheerilee smiled as she closed her eyes and answered "You are my big snuggle buns.".

The two continues to nuzzle against each other unaware of the presence sneaking up behind them.

"You two sure are getting friendly with each other." Gohan smirked causing the two lovestruck ponies to jump at his voice.

"G..Gohan! We were just um...um..." Big Mac tried to say as Gohan continued to smirk.

Cheerilee sighed at her love's antics before placing her hand onto his shoulder "It's okay honey I believe it is safe to say the cat's out of the bag.".

Big Mac let out a held breath as Cheerilee set his mind at ease.

"Don't worry you two I just came back to make sure you two were all right after all I didn't expect to see you both up and about so early." Gohan said while placing his hands on the back of his head in a laid back manner.

"It's okay Gohan, we both knew that we couldn't keep it a secret forever." Big Mac said wrapping his arm around Cheerilee.

Gohan gave them a sympathetic smile "I'll just keep your little secret with me. How did you two get together anyway?".

Cheerilee smiled and began to recall the events of the other day "Well snookums and myself got together shortly after you helped us escape from the school. Big Mac proved how brave and strong he was trying to protect me and the girls from those horrible creatures, so I couldn't help but fall in love with him. Oh it's such a wonderful feeling to be in love Gohan you should try it!" she finished as Big Mac blushed a deep crimson.

Gohan chuckled a little bit as he saw Big Mac's embarrassed face "Well to be honest I have my own problems with love at the moment.".

"What the problem?" Asked Big Mac concerned about his friend.

Gohan spent the next couple of minutes informing them about Celestia decree that he would take her and the other ponies out on their dream date.

"Wow little bro you sure do have a lot on your plate!" Big Mac said trying not to laugh.

He wondered how Applejack would adjust to being taken out on a date, since she tried her best not to act all girlish. However in the short time he had known Gohan he was sure that the boy would do his best to make it special for her.

"Well I think it's sweet that you have so many beautiful ponies who care about you Gohan." Cheerilee said starting to imagine Big Mac taking her out on her own dream date.

Gohan smiled and laughed softly "Yeah I guess I am pretty lucky.".

Looking up into the sky Gohan could see that the sun had almost disappeared from the sky.

"Well if you two will excuse me I have to make sure I am well rested so I will be able to make things special for Princess Luna." Gohan said to the two ponies who were still cuddling with each other.

"We should get back inside too, we have to make a long trip back to Ponyville in the morning." Big Mac said.

Cheerilee eyes opened wide in realization "I almost forgot to get my costume ready! Gohan what are you going to wear for tomorrow?".

Gohan looked confused "Um...Wear?".

Big Mac looked surprised "You mean you didn't know!? On Nightmare Night everypony in the land dresses up in scary costumes.".

"I had no idea that it was that kind of holiday, I honestly don't know what I can wear that will be scary." Gohan said trying to think of someway out of his predicament.

"Well I'm sure you will think of something before then, after all if you were resourceful enough to stop Discord then finding a costume should be cake." Cheerilee reassured him before she and Big Mac turned to walk back into the castle leaving Gohan standing alone.

"Great I had better go ask Rarity to make me yet another outfit so I don't mess things up tomorrow." Gohan groaned before running off to find the Fashionista.

As he moved back into the castle a small cloud of glowing dust came from the spot where Discord's statue once stood.

It glowed almost evilly as it dispersed with great speed into the air.

End of Chapter

---

Finally this freaking chapter is over!

I have been trying to end this chapter for the last couple of weeks and I couldn't find a way to do it. This will be the worst chapter in the entire fic and to be honest the only thing that is stopping me from completely redoing this whole chapter is the fact that it has been a long time from my last update.

On a lighter note everyone will be happy to know that I have a gigantic amount of free time now so I can work harder on my writing.

The next 8 chapters will be the romantic dates between Gohan and the others so be expecting a lot of mushy gushy love scenes.

Alright Everyone we have gotten to the first of the date chapters. In honor of Halloween which I did not do anything for, I have decided to make the first date Gohan/Luna in case you missed that in the last chapter.

Chapter 12: Friendship, Romance, and Candy

Gohan awoke to the sound of birds chirping. Yawning loudly he pulled himself from his bed and made his way out of his room and downstairs to main hall.

He was pleased to find that all of his friends had gathered around and happily chatting about the events of the day.

"What's up everybody?" He cheerfully asked them.

They all turned to him with happy smiles as Applejack started to speak.

"Howdy there Gohan, we were starting to think you were never gonna wake up." She said causing Gohan to blush and rub the back of his head.

"Sorry were you all waiting on me for something?" Gohan asked.

Twilight grinned and answered " We were just wanting to see you before we all went back to Ponyville.".

Gohan was confused "You're all leaving?".

"Well it is Nightmare Night tonight, and Spike is probrably wondering why I haven't been back to the library in days." Twilight said wondering how the dragon was holding up back home.

"I've got to get the fillies back to Sweet Apple Acres to get their costumes on so granny can watch them." Applejack says patting Applebloom on the head.

"I also have to get back to my home to take of my animals." Fluttershy said giving Gohan a shy smile.

"Me and Pinkie also have to go get in on that candy!" Rainbow Dash announced as Pinkie Pie clapped her hands in agreement.

As they all said their goodbyes Gohan watched as his friends entered a carriage headed for ponyville.

As the carriage started to roll down the path Rarity stuck her head out of the side.

"Gohan, I left your costume in the dresser inside of your room!" She yelled out to him.

Gohan smiled and waved at her "Thank you Rarity, I promise I'll find a way to repay you!".

The Fashionista smirked as she yelled back "Just make sure you show Princess Luna a good time and then pay me back when it's our turn for a date!".

Finally the carriage was out of view and Gohan returned to his room to prepare for the night.

"Hmm I wonder what my costume looks like?" Gohan asked to himself as he passed through his doorway.

Walking over to his dresser her opened it slowly, his eyes widening in wonder.

"Now this is what I call a costume!" He exclaimed and quickly began to put on the work of art.

(In Luna's chambers)

"I am so nervous about my first date!" Luna yelled pacing around the room.

She knew that she should be resting for the big event that night but found that her mind was filling with mental images of how her romantic night would play out. Her sister tried to calm her down so they could talk before the date.

"Dear Sister you really must control yourself, I'm sure everything will go alright tonight." Celestia said wrapping her arms around her sister.

Luna sighed loudly and leaned her head against her sister's chest listening to her heartbeat "I'm sorry sister, it's just never in my life have I been asked out on a date.".

Celestia smiled warmly at her sister's antics. It reminded her of when she was a young filly and more interested in other colts than in ruling Equestria.

"You have nothing to worry about, I have the utmost confidence in Gohan's ability to make sure your special night is as perfect as possible." Princess Celestia finished and let go of her sister "Now do us both a favor and get some sleep! I'm sure Gohan doesn't want to feel the wrath of a cranky princess.".

Luna shot a playful glare at her sister as dropped herself down to rest on her bed "Thank you sister, I don't know what I would do if you weren't here for me.".

"That's what family is for young one, to help each other in their times of need." Celestia answered as she turned out the light "Sleep tight!".

"Don't let the bedbugs bite!" Luna completed the saying and closed her eyes.

The sun princess smiled as she remembered that they would say that to each other when they were young fillies.

As she walked down the corridor Celestia couldn't help but say with a grin"Looks like I don't have to protect you from the world anymore my sweet sister.".

(Golden Oaks Library)

Twilight Sparkle had been hard at work since returning from the castle. She had dusted and alphabetized all of the books, studied her scrolls for two hours, and put the finishing touches onto her costume. As she was putting on her outfit Spike came bouncing down the stairs.

"Say Twilight what do you think of my costume?" The young dragon asked her making a scary face.

Twilight laughed at the small dragons appearance "Really Spike? Out of any costume in the entire world that you could have chosen, you decided to dress up as a dragon?".

Spike frowned and shot her a evil look "Okay Miss Perfect if you're so smart then why did you dress up as a grandpa!?".

"I am not a grandpa Spike! I'll have you know that Star Swirl the Bearded is only the most important conjurer of the pre-classical era." Twilight spoke posing in her mystical costume.

Their conversation was interuppted as a knock was heard at the door.

As she opened the door she was met by the face of three very enthusiastic fillies "Nightmare Night! What a fright! Give us something sweet to bite!".

Twilight smiled and put candy in each of their bags "Hi everypony, great costumes! Happy Nightmare Night, Granny Smith.".

"I was supposed to be in bed 5 hours ago" The frail old pony moaned.

From the back of the line another filly hopped to the front in a pirate outfit.

"Pipsqueak the pirate, at your service. It's my very first Nightmare Night!" He said as he held out his bag.

Twilight was confused and asked "Since you moved from Trottingham?".

Pip smiled and shook his head "Nope it's my very first Nightmare Night ever!".

Suddenly a ball of pink lighting zipped right in front him "Enough chitchat time is candy!".

Twilight recognized the voice as Pinkie Pie "Pinkie Pie aren't you a little too old for candy?".

This year Pinkie Pie had decided to go as a giant chicken and was currently aiding Granny Smith in escorting the fillies.

"Too old for free candy? Never in a million years!" Pinkie gasped scratching the ground like a chicken.

Twilight sighed and then started to show off her costume to her friend "So what do you think Pinkie?".

The pink pony observed her for a few minutes trying to figure out what she was dressed as. Finally she gave her best guess.

"Wow Twilight you make a great grandpa!" She yelled and quickly ate the rest of Twilight's candy.

As she and the others ran off Twilight shook her fist at the pink pony "I'm Star swirl the Bearded, not a grandpa! He has his own shelf at the Canterlot library of magic for pony sake!".

Spike laughed at his best friend "Give it up twilight no one loves books more than you." he said and tossed a handful of candy into his mouth.

Twilight gave another sigh and proceeded to walk with spike into town square.

They spent the next thirty minutes socializing with the other residents of Ponyville and enjoying the events of Nightmare Night.

Before long they were once again met by Pinkie Pie and Pipsqueak.

"Hey again Pinkie! Did you get enough candy?" Twilight asked them seeing their bursting bags.

Pinkie pumped a fist into the air and laughed "We sure did Twilight! We bagged as much as we possibly could and then went to Cheerilee's and bagged even mo...AHHH!" she screamed as a lighting bolt flashed from above her.

Looking up Twilight could see the familiar Rainbow colored mane and instantly knew who it was.

"That was a mean trick Rainbow Dash!" she said and frowned at the now laughing pony.

"Ha Ha Ha lighten up Twilight after all what good would Nightmare Night be without the occasional trick?" Rainbow Dash said as she peeked out from behind a thundercloud.

Twilight sighed and straightened her hat "Well now that you're here we can wait for Princess Luna and Gohan to get here.".

"I can't wait to see what Gohan thinks of his costume." Rarity said coming around the corner with both Applejack and Fluttershy.

The Fashionista was dressed as vampire princess and had her hair made into a carefully designed bun. Applejack was dressed as a scarecrow and had straw sticking out of her mane.

"Weren't they suppose to be here by now Twi?" asked Applejack.

Twilight looked at the clock in the middle of the town "Maybe they are waiting to make an entrance.".

Glancing at the clock again she hoped that she was right.

(Back at the Castle)

"Wow this thing is really tight!" Gohan said to himself while trying to finish putting on his costume.

For the last several hours he spent his time in the castle library reading up on Equestria's history and holiday's.

He wanted to make sure that he knew about Nightmare Night and how special it would be for Luna so he could make both his and her night as special as he could.

He found that his world's holiday's were almost mirror images of this world's holiday's with Nightmare Night being similar to Halloween. But while he was reading he started to think about his friends and their feelings.

Seeing as not a single pony objected to Princess Celestia's decree that he take each of them out on a date made him question if things could work out between them all. He laughed at the fact that a month ago he had been all alone with no friends or family to care for him and now he had eight female anthropomorphic ponies wanting him to win their hearts.

In a way it made him happy but worried at the same time. What if he couldn't make each of them happy, would they be angry and abandon him? He should his head free of those thoughts and snapped on the final piece of his costume.

He looked at the clock on the wall and could see it was almost time to arrive in Ponyville.

Grabbing the accessory that Rarity had made for him he walked through the hallways up to Luna's chamber.

(With Luna)

Luna had also spent the last couple of hours making sure she was presentable.

"My dear you are spending way too much time trying to impress him." Nightmare Moon spoke from within her.

Luna sighed as she plopped herself down onto her bed "We are just worried that is all. This is the very first date I have ever had and I want it to be perfect.".

"Well we are glad you are so excited but what good will it do us, if you kill him with ten layers of perfume." Nightmare laughed as Luna grabbed her mane and inhaled.

"Did we add way too much?" she asked hoping she didn't completely overdue it.

Suddenly a knock came from her door.

"Who is it!?" Luna asked without skipping a beat.

"It's me Gohan!" The half-saiyan called up from behind the door.

The Princess jumped off her bed and tried to adjust herself in the mirror "Just a minute please!".

"We are sure we look fine dear just hurry up and go to him sometime before the over" Nightmare laughed receiving a small nod from her other self.

Moving slowly she unlocked her door and opened it only to meet her crush standing in a magnificent costume.

Gohan was dressed as what she could only guess was a dark knight outfit. It was made with blood red rubies placed in just the right places. Small black wings were placed on both the should pauldrons and on his gauntlets. His helmet was designed to look like a dragon with glowing yellow eyes. In his left hand he gripped a very realistic look spear that had a very long jagged blade at the bottom and two forked blades around the head.

Luna could only stare in wonder at her very handsome date.

"Well Gohan it seems that no matter what the occasion you are always destined to be my knight in shining armor." Luna said with a blush appearing clearly on her face.

Gohan chuckled and removed his helmet showing that he too was sporting a blush.

"Well I am happy that you are able to share your special night with me Luna." He said and softly kissed her hand.

Luna softly gasped and tried to hide her ever reddening face with her hands "My, my, my you are quite the romantic tonight Gohan.".

They both shared a laugh as the made their way down to the castle entrance.

"So princess are we taking one of your sister's chariot's to Ponyville?" Gohan asked grasping her hand in a soft yet strong grip.

Princess Luna smiled and tightened her fingers around his "No Gohan I have my own transport waiting for us.".

As they arrived at the gates two of Luna's guards pulled a midnight colored chariot into view.

"We are ready to proceed as planned Princess." The first guard spoke, bowing before her.

"Proceed as planned?" Gohan asked confused about what he meant.

Luna squeezed his hand an gave him a smile "Well Gohan I kind of had an idea to make a grand entrance into Ponyville, after all it has been one thousand years since I have been to a social event.".

Gohan assisted her climb into the chariot and pulled himself up to the seat beside her.

Soon the chariot took off with great speed across the sky straight to Ponyville. As they disappeared from view Princess Celestia closed the window to her chambers.

"Have a good night sister." She smiled softly laid down onto her bed. As she closed her eyes she couldn't help but think of how her day with the boy-wonder would be.

(Back in Ponyville)

Everypony was still going strong in town. Games were still being played and candy still being given.

Twilight and her friends had gathered at Sugarcube corner to grab some quick sweets, not wanting to be mowed down by Pinkie Pie and her candy squad.

"So Twilight are you sure that this Gohan guy and Princess Luna were supposed to be here?" Spike asked as he chowed down on some emeralds he brought.

Twilight rolled a apple around in her hands as she stared at the sky "Well I thought that they would but maybe Princess Luna just isn't ready for large scale interactions like these.".

Rarity seemed to have a look of despair on her face as she dramatically threw her hand over her face "But if they do not make an appearance how will I ever know if Gohan adores the costume I slaved over for him!".

Applejack laughed as she watch her friend go into her drama queen mode "Jeez Rarity you have it bad don't cha?".

"I beg your pardon!?" The Fashionista gritted out throwing a glare at Applejack.

"Well Rarity all I'm sayin is that you really just want to see Gohan so soon cause your jealous that Luna has first dibs on him." Applejack said giving Rarity a challenging look.

Rarity's glare soon turned evil as she felt her friend trying to get under her skin "Well what about you, I could see you undressing him with your eyes this morning!?".

Twilight, and Rainbow Dash both sighed as the the once again locked horns about who was right or wrong.

A noise coming from outside of the bakery caused everyone to stop in surprise.

"Come on everypony something big is happening outside!" Spoke Twilight eager to see what the commotion was.

After the last pony ran through the door the source of the excitement was visible in the night sky. It was a dark chariot being pulled by two equally dark ponies in armor.

The chariot landed right in the middle of town square as all the ponies couldn't help but wonder who would be making such a grand entrance.

Suddenly two figures stepped out of the chariot. One was covered in a hood and the other looked as if he was a knight.

"Well it looks like they made it after all." Twilight Sparkle said instantly recognizing the princesses chariot.

Rarity smiled as she gazed upon Gohan "Yes and it seems like Gohan just loves his dragon knight costume.

Spike couldn't believe his eyes "You mean that's Gohan!? Aww he has a better dragon costume than I do.".

They all laughed as they move through the cloud of ponies gathered around them. As the finally arrived in front of the chariot Twilight Sparkle addressed both of her friends.

"We were just about to think that you two were never going to show up." Twilight chuckled as Princess Luna removed her hood.

Everypony in the vicinity gasped loudly and bowed to the guest of honor.

Luna looked around with an uncomfortable look upon her face "Please everypony we do not wish for you to bow to us! We are just here to enjoy the festivities."

Her request was met with uncertain faces as they remembered the events of the Summer Sun Celebration and how Nightmare Moon almost took over.

Feeling embarrassed she looked to Gohan for Support. Taking off his helmet he smiled warmly at her letting her know that he was here for her. As he grasped her hand a scream was heard from the back of the ponies.

"AAAAHHHH everypony run! Nightmare Moon has possessed Gohan and is making him her love slave!" A familiar voice he identified as Pinkie Pie could be hear as the ponies started to scream and cower in fear.

Luna looked down at the ground sadly as her attempts to disarm the bad feelings between her and the townsfolk.

She gasped as she felt something strong wrap around her. Turning her head she saw that Gohan was hugging her tightly.

"Don't worry Luna I'll make sure you have a wonderful night no matter what it takes." He said as he felt her lean into his embrace.

"Don't worry Gohan we'll get every back out onto the street!" Twilight said as the others nodded in agreement.

"Thanks everyone I'm gonna stay here with Luna while you get everyone back." Gohan said as the others ran off to complete their mission.

They both stood in silence for the next couple of minutes before Luna finally decided to speak "Do you think everyone will warm up to me soon Gohan?".

"I'm sure they will Luna sometimes it just takes a little convincing to show people how good you really are." Gohan said as he spun Luna around to look her in the eyes.

As she gazed into the half-saiyan's eyes she could feel a loving warmth radiate from them.

"Well my dear it seems that you have a keeper there." Nightmare Moon spoke with a grin.

Luna gave a small chuckle as she hugged Gohan again.

(10 minutes later)

After some much needed convincing Twilight and the others had finally persuaded the residents of ponyville to come back outside.

Their eyes were still locked on Luna as if they were expecting her to transform into Nightmare Moon at any time.

"My word this is ridiculous! The first time I make an appearance it seemed as if everyone was ready to defy us, but now it's like they were expecting us to blow up the sun." Nightmare Moon groaned as Luna and Gohan strolled through the streets.

A small gurgling noise caused them to stop in place.

"Was that your stomach princess?" Asked Gohan with a grin.

Luna face turned red "We apologize, it has been a day since we last ate.".

Gohan looked around quickly and spotted a restaurant with a few empty tables.

"How about we stop and grab a bite to eat ?" He asked her and pointed to where the tables were.

She nodded quickly hoping that her stomach didn't ruin the mood for them.

As they both sat down a waiter dressed as a bunch of grapes came to take their orders.

"Shall I take your orders Princess Luna, and your um...date." He asked with a nervous face hoping that he hadn't offended them.

Luna gave a small nod and started to make her order "I believe a simple dandelion sandwich would be enough to satisfy my hunger.".

He quickly jotted down her order and then turned to Gohan "What would you desire sir?".

Gohan thought about it briefly not wanting to order something with plants in it "Would it be okay to request a couple dozen banana-nut muffins?".

The waiter looked at him strangely but decided not to ask in fear of upsetting the Princess "Very good then we will have your orders to you in just a few brief moments.".

As the waiter disappeared Luna grinned at Gohan "It seems like I'm not the only one who has not eaten today.".

Rubbing the back of his head Gohan shyly replied "Well I have been know to eat a lot so I didn't want to empty out the castle's supply of food.".

Princess Luna smiled softly and placed her hand on top of his "Gohan you must not worry about small things like that. As long as you are in Equestria the castle will always be your home. Besides I seriously doubt that even with your large appetite that you could even scratch the castle's vast supply of food.".

Looking into each others eyes, the both started blushing. A strange sensation came over both of them that they couldn't explain. It felt as if something was attracting them closer to each other. Closing their eyes they allowed themselves to get closer and closer until their faces were mere inches away from each other. Suddenly a noise caused them to break away from each other quickly.

Looking up they noticed that the waiter and returned with their food.

"One dandelion sandwich for the fair Princess Luna, and two trays of muffins for the sir." The waiter said before bowing and walking away.

Luna looked down at her food quickly saying "Um..lets dig in!" before taking a large bite of her sandwich.

Gohan nodded in agreement before picking up a muffin and quickly consuming it and picking up another.

A few minutes passed by in complete silence as the two chowed down. Luna wondered if Gohan would say something soon to break the tension.

Luckily before any words could be said a startled gasp erupted from Gohan as another mare had knocked into the side of the table and was staring intently at the two trays of muffins.

"Derpy Hooves!?" Princess Luna asked shocked to see her.

The mail-pony broke her stare from the muffins to happily hug the friend she had made during the crisis "Princess I'm so glad to see you again!".

"I also am glad to see you as well. I was so worried that something happened to you after we separated." Luna said returning the hug.

"Well after everypony left I decided to just wait in my house until the whole thing blew over." Derpy said returning her gaze to the muffins.

Gohan noticed her stare and held out two muffins to her "Would you like some Derpy?".

Her eyes widened as the words came from his mouth.

"Did I say something wrong?" Gohan asked hoping that he didn't say something wrong.

Derpy laughed as she took the muffins from his hand "It's just that no one has ever offered me my favorite thing in the whole wide world before!".

Both Luna and Gohan looked in amazement as Derpy devoured the muffins with an almost super "pony" speed.

After they were finished the small mare burped softly and smiled "That was great I really needed that, thanks!".

Gohan chuckled and gave her a thumb up "Don't mention it.".

Luna smiled as her two friends were getting along well. She had been worried since they had gotten separated that something might of happened to her.

"So Luna are you two out on a date?" Derpy asked out loud causing everypony around them to twist their head towards them.

Luna blushed a deep crimson as she felt all the gazes suddenly trained on her "Um..Yes Derpy. Gohan and I are on a special date tonight.".

"That is so wonderful! Let me get out of your mane so you can enjoy your cute date." Derpy said and trotted off happily.

After a few moments of silence Gohan spoke "Well that was interesting.".

"Yes I do believe it was. Derpy means well, but she has her own way showing it.". Luna said pressing her hands together.

"Well seeing as we are done eating would you like to go play some of the games?" Gohan asked hoping that Luna wasn't too embarrassed to continue the night.

Luna gave him a puzzling look "Games? It's been so long since me or my sister have had time to play games since we became princesses.".

"Well then that's exactly what we need to do! All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy after all." Gohan said with a grin.

The princess looked confused "Who is this Jack person, is he a friend of yours?".

Gohan face palmed and held back his laughter "No princess it's just an expression.".

"Oh." Luna said feeling embarrassed.

As they walked off towards the games Gohan felt as if something was following them from the sky.

Looking up he noticed a strangely shaped thundercloud slowly moving behind them. Shaking his head he dismissed this as nothing as Applejack ran up to them.

"I reckon you and the princess would like to play some of the games huh Gohan?" She asked and tossed a small red ball up and down.

"Yep do you have anything in mind for us?" Gohan asked with his arm around Luna.

The earth pony flashed them both a toothy grin as she motioned for them to follow her "I believe I have just the perfect game for you both.".

Applejack led them to a large tank filled with water with a curtain over it.

Luna was intrigued as she look at the strange tank "Lady Applejack if I may ask, what kind of game is this?".

"I'm so glad you asked princess! But before I get to explaining I'd like for you to meet our very special assistant." Applejack beamed before pulling on a large rope right next to the tank.

The curtain slowly raised revealing a bound and gagged Rarity sitting on a plank.

"This is a good a good old fashioned dunking booth princess. You throw this ball at that target on the wall to make little old Rarity go for a swim." Applejack explained passing the ball to Luna.

Gohan looked up at Rarity to see the fear come to her eyes. He knew that he would have to do something special on their date to make up for what was about happen.

"Um..Applejack are you sure that Rarity is fine with being the person being dunked?" He asked the now smirking mare.

"Don't worry about it, I'm sure Rarity will survive a little bit of water." Applejack laughed as she moved out of the way of the target.

Luna rolled the ball around her palm for a few moments trying to aim herself up with the target. Taking a deep breath she gave the ball a small toss and watched as it hit the wall right under the target.

Luna scowled lightly as Applejack tossed the ball back to her "Not bad for a first throw princess you have two more shots to make our beautiful miss Rarity wet.". (Geez sound dirty much )

Concentrating harder she put more power into the throw. This time the ball sailed right over the target over the wall to the other side.

Applejack ran to get the ball as Rarity gave a big sigh of relief. Maybe she would be safe and Luna would just miss again.

She smiled behind the tape that covered her mouth as she waited for the princess to miss again.

As Luna once again held the ball once again she felt something wrapped her from behind. Turning her head she realized that Gohan was holding her and moving her arms into position.

"You need to keep your arms firm when you throw so the ball will move where you want it to." Gohan said as softly moved her into position.

Luna could feel the warmth coming from his body and allowed him to move her the way he wanted.

After Gohan had finished fixing her stance Luna did as she was told and kept her arm tight as she once again prepared to throw.

As the ball left her hand Luna closed her eyes and held her breath.

A satisfying ting and a loud splash filled the air as she quickly opened her eyes in surprise. Inside the tank she could see a very angry Rarity splashing around trying to pull herself out from the water.

"We did it Gohan, we did it!" Luna happily yelled out as she turned to hug Gohan.

The half-saiyan accepted the hug, happy to know that his date was enjoying her success. They held their embrace for a few second before Luna leaned her head to look him in the eyes.

"Um... Is there something on my face?" He asked staring back into her shimmering eyes.

Luna did not reply but only started to lean her face closer and closer to his. Gohan too started to lean closer to her like her was in some kind of trance.

The space between them shortened as they closed their eyes. They could feel each others breath on the others lips and were just about to kiss but were interuppted by the sound of a crowd of awes.

Snapping out of the trance, they both looked silently at all of the staring ponies. It was almost a sweet moment for the two of them before the familiar voice of Pinkie Pie rang out.

"AAAAHHHH Nightmare Moon is trying to suck out Gohan's Soul, everybody run!" She screamed as the crowd all ran for cover.

"No wait please!" Luna screamed as the crowd ran to get as far away as they could.

Seeing all of the subjects she was trying to win over run from her in fear made Luna both sad and angry at the same time.

She had already declared her intention to enjoy the night dedicated to her, so why had they done such a good job of making a big festival if they were just going to treat the guest of honor as if she was going to bite their heads off?

She felt herself get angrier and angrier as she felt the urge to scream.

"That's it! If this is how we are going to be treated then I hereby ban Nightmare Night forever!" Luna yelled in her loudest Canterlot voice as she ran as far away from the now cowering ponies as fast as she could.

In her haste she did not notice Gohan calling out for her to come back.

"Luna please come back!" He yelled as Rarity and Applejack stood by his side.

"What are we gonna do now Gohan? If we don't fix things their won't be a festival to enjoy." Applejack said worriedly.

Gohan sighed as his thoughts went to his date "Alright get everyone to stop freaking out and find something to do about Pinkie Pie. No one will calm down if she runs by screaming that Luna is doing something evil. I'm gonna chase down Luna before she decides to leave Ponyville.".

They both nodded as Gohan raced off after the princess.

Rarity was still trying to dry her mane off as she looked to Applejack "Well we had better find Pinkie Pie before she causes anymore chaos.".

"Yeah maybe we can lure her out with some candy." Applejack agreed noticing Rarity shoot her a dirty look "What?".

"Applejack...You will rue the day you put me in that dunking booth!" The fashionista growled as she ran to find Pinkie Pie with a laughing Applejack following close behind.

(Meanwhile)

"Princess!" Gohan yelled running through Ponyville. He was surprised at how fast she could move. She had made one small turn and just like that she was gone.

After running around for a few minutes Gohan suddenly stopped at the sound of his name being called.

"Finally I found you!" Twilight Sparkle said clearly out of breath "What happened?".

Gohan ran his hand through his hair before speaking "Let's just say Pinkie Pie caused a crowd Panic, and now Luna has banned Nightmare Night.".

"Pinkie did what!?" Twilight groaned face-palming in frustration.

"Yeah and as if that wasn't bad enough she's disappeared and I have no idea where she went." Gohan said clearly worried about the situation.

Twilight thought about it for a minute before coming to a realization "Well if Princess Luna is upset that everyone is frightened by her then she would have no reason to stay in Ponyville. Therefore she must be heading back to the castle!".

"What!?" Gohan almost yelled "We have to find her fast!".

The two of them continued their search as a certain princess started arguing with herself.

(With Luna)

Luna was running as fast as she could to stop herself from crying. She had been running for so long she couldn't even recognize where she was anymore.

"Well that was a disappointing display." The bored voice of Nightmare Moon rang out from her mind.

"Just leave me alone Nightmare!" Luna choked out.

She really did not want to hear her other self at the moment. All she wanted was to find a nice quiet place where she could be all by herself.

"Now don't blame me for what happened, everything would have been fine if the pink one wouldn't have freaked out." Spoke Nightmare in an annoyed voice.

"Well if you were never created I would still be one of the normal ponies!" Luna said without even thinking.

She clasped a hoof over her mouth realizing her mistake.

"I'm just gonna pretend I didn't hear that last tidbit." Nightmare Moon slowly gritted out.

Luna sighed and stared at the ground "We...We apologize, the stress is just getting to us.".

Nightmare moon stayed quiet for a few moments and replied "Well my dear that is understandable. You really should have brought our little hero with you, after all he knows how to make you smile.".

The thought of being in Gohan's arms did make her smile. It was if she could reach a new level of happiness that she never thought she could reach. It was strange how someone who she only knew for a few shorts weeks could make her weak in the knees.

"See there we go there's that innocent, or shall we say not so innocent little smile." Nightmare chuckled as she could see Luna's thoughts.

Standing up, Luna looked around at her surroundings.

She seemed to have found herself in a nice quiet little forest area. It couldn't have been the Everfree forest because of the absence of magic. This was a perfectly natural forest.

Her thoughts were interuppted as the sound a bushes shaking caused her to jump.

"Who's there!" She demanded nervous about what could be hidden behind them.

The shaking got closer and closer until finally with a soft thud a small bunny jumped in front of her.

The princess let out a sigh of relief as she lowered her defenses "You silly little creature, you scared me half to deaf.".

The bunny twisted it's head to the side and wiggled it's nose before bouncing in front of her. It was as if it wanted her to follow it for some reason.

"Do we follow it or wait until someone finds us?" Luna asked her other half.

"Hmm I don't know, I've never heard of a guide rabbit. Still if we want to find our way out this may be our best bet." Nightmare answered just as amazed as Luna was.

The rabbit got tired of waiting and bounced off down the path, leaving Luna to chase after it.

After about 10 minutes of running the bunny had led her out of the forest and back close to Ponyville. The first thing she noticed was a small cottage with many animal pens.

"Who's home have you led me to my little woodland creature?" The Princess asked him as the little bunny knocked on the door.

The sound of something dropping could be heard as a high voice came from inside "Go away, there is no candy here on Nightmare Night!".

Princess Luna then knocked on the door again this time making her voice heard "Um..This little bunny led me to your home, could you please allow me to meet the owner of this little hero.".

The lock on the clicked as it opened.

"Princess Luna is that you?" Fluttershy asked as she stood in the doorway.

Luna let out a sigh of relief as she gazed upon the pink maned pony.

Picking up Fluttershy Luna proceeded to squeeze her tight "At last some-pony who I can speak with that does not fear me.".

Fluttershy returned the hug but quickly squeezed out "Um...Princess could you please let go? You are crushing me!".

Quickly releasing the now gasping pony Luna began to apologize "We are sorry dearest Fluttershy, it would appear we do not know our own strength.".

"It's fine princess, I'm okay." Fluttershy reassured her and invited her inside for some tea.

As they sat down at the table Fluttershy felt that she just had to ask "Princess, aren't you suppose to be out on your date with Gohan right now?".

Luna eyes darted around nervously as she thought about poor Gohan still running around looking for her.

"To be honest Fluttershy, I felt as if the residents of Ponyville didn't want me to be there so I ran off. Gohan is probrably so upset with me right now." Luna spoke and hung her head in shame.

Fluttershy took the time to observe the night princess as she remained silent. She remembered that when Luna was Nightmare Moon, she couldn't even move out of fear. Now all she wanted to do is make her feel better about herself.

Walking beside the sulking pony she wrapped her arms around her "There, there princess. I'm sure all Gohan is worried about right now is making sure you are safe.".

The sudden contact surprised Luna. The most easily startled pony in Ponyville was now hugging her tightly without fear.

"Thank you Fluttershy, I could see how you are easily Gohan's favorite pony." Luna said returning the hug.

Her comment caused Fluttershy's eyes to shoot open wide "I...I...I'm Gohan's what!?".

Luna giggled at the flustered look that now graced Fluttershy's face "Surely you must have noticed the sweet looks Gohan has been giving over the last couple of days?"

Fluttershy thought about it for awhile. She remembered that whenever she and Gohan were alone sometimes her would stare at her, as if contemplating something. At first she thought she just had something in her hair or teeth, but now hearing the Princess's comment she wondered if it could possibly be true.

Before she could even answer though a knock was heard at the door. She ran to answer the door and was met by the exhausted faces of Twilight, and Gohan.

"Fluttershy please tell me you know where Princess Luna is, we've looked everywhere." Gohan said while trying to catch his breath.

Fluttershy motioned for them to follow her into the house. Walking into the kitchen where Luna sat sipping her tea, Gohan all but tackled her in a hug.

"Please Luna don't ever scare me like that again!" Gohan softly said while burying his head into her shoulder.

Twilight also let out a sigh of relief glad that she didn't have to explain to Celestia why her sister went missing.

"I am glad to see you too Gohan, but aren't you upset at me for ruining the evening?" Luna asked surprised he wasn't angry at her.

Gohan lifted his hear up and placed his hands onto her hips making her blush "I could never be made at you Luna, and don't worry the evening isn't over yet.".

"But isn't everyone upset that I ruined Nightmare Night for everyone?" Luna asked confused on how they could still have a romantic evening.

Twilight then took the time to explain "Don't you worry about a thing princess. We spent a couple of minutes convincing people that it was an elaborate hoax and that everything is going on as planned.".

Gohan also chimed in "Yeah and we also have Applejack, and Rarity chasing down Pinkie Pie so she can't cause anymore of an uproar.".

Luna still looked apprehensive at this information "We do not know Gohan, what if everyone still fears us.".

Gohan smiled at that as he had already come up with a plan to make sure that things went just right.

As he explained his plan Zecora and a large amount of fillies and colts had gathered at the large statue of Nightmare Moon in the forest.

(With Zecora)

As all the fillies all stood with their bags of candy in front the scary looking statue Zecora began her speech.

"Follow me and very soon you'll hear the tale of Night Mare Moon. Listen close my little dears, and I'll tell you where you got your fears of Nightmare Night, so dark and scary. Of Night Mare Moon, who makes you wary. Every year, we put on a disguise, to save ourselves, from her searching eyes. But Night Mare Moon wants just one thing. To gobble up ponies in one quick swing. Hungrily, she soars the sky. If she sees no-pony, she passes by. So if she comes and all is clear, Equestria is safe another year!" The Zebra finished her tale as Pipsqueak ran up to her.

"Uh, Miss Zecora, if we wear costumes to hide from Night Mare Moon, so she won't gobble us up, how come we still need to give her some of our candy?" He asked while defensively holding his bag of candy.

Zecora laughed and patted his head "A perfect question, my little friend. For Night Mare Moon you must not offend. Fill up her belly with a treat or two, so she won't return to come eat you!".

She had to hold back a laugh as the color drained from Pipsqueak's face, and he quickly rush to put some of his candy around the statue.

Soon all of the other ponies were doing the same thing until a large pile soon stacked up.

"Did we do it Miss Zecora are we safe?" Pipsqueak asked looking from side to side.

As Zecora was about to answer lightning flashed across the sky. A large gust of wind caused all the candy to swirl into the sky and disappear inside of a cloud.

All of the young ponies cowered behind Zecora as the cloud soon transformed into a very gigantic Nightmare moon.

Her voice boom like thunder as she addressed them "Citizens of Ponyville! You were wise to bring these candies to me. I am pleased with your offering. So pleased that I may just eat it... instead of eating you!".

As she once again made lightning flash every single pony in the area turned tail and ran except for Zecora, and young Pipsqueak.

Seeing that her job was completed Nightmare Moon soon reverted back into Luna as she touched down on the ground with a large sack of candy thrown over her shoulder.

"Um..Twilight Sparkle I don't think this has had the intention that you wanted." Luna said feeling as if the only thing she managed to do was caused them to be even more afraid of her.

Twilight Sparkle, Gohan, and Fluttershy all came out from behind the statue.

"Don't worry Princess Luna, I have a feeling that everyone enjoyed your little show." Twilight said and pointed at the fillies and colts hiding in the bushes.

Luna was still unsure until young Pipsqueak came up and began to tug at her cloak "Princess even though there won't be anymore Nightmare Night, can you still come to scare me and my friends?".

Luna was surprised that they actually wanted to be scared. Maybe she had been wrong the whole time, maybe they didn't resent her after all.

"Do not worry young one, if you really desire to be scared then we will just have bring...NIGHTMARE NIGHT BACK!" Luna smiled as she boomed the last words in her Canterlot voice.

Pipsqueak smiled widely as he hugged her "You are my favorite princess ever! She said yes guys!".

The small ponies in the bushes all excitedly yelled out as they all ran back to Ponyville.

After they had all left Gohan hugged Luna from behind "I told you everything would work out in the end.".

Luna smiled but said nothing as she melted into his embrace. Turning to look into his eyes Luna and Gohan both stared into each other eyes as their lips drew closer to each other.

Once again just as they were about to touch the sound of yelling caused them to break away again.

"Get back here Pinkie!" Applejack yelled.

"Never! You will never get your hands on my candy!" Pinkie yelled before running straight into Luna and Gohan.

All three of them tumbled to the ground as Pinkie landed right on top of Luna. As she tried to get her head to stop spinning she suddenly realized who was beneath her.

"AHH Nightmare M..." She was cut off by Twilight grabbing hold of her tightly.

"Pinkie Pie you remember Princess Luna right?" Twilight asked her receiving a nod from the now sweating pony "Well if you remember her then why do you keep running screaming and running away? She's not going to hurt you".

Pinkie Pie then pried Twilight's hand away from her mouth "Well duh I'm not dumb! Sometimes it really fun to be scared." she finished and poke then end of Luna's nose.

"You mean that you do not resent me Pinkamena?" Luna asked feeling a sense of relief come over her.

Pinkie Pie cringed slightly hearing her full name but answered the question anyway "Why would I do a thing like that Princess? We saved Equestria from Discord together...also it's Pinkie.".

Luna smiled as Pinkie hugged her.

A loud crash of lightning from the sky caused Pinkie to drop to the ground in terror, as everyone else jumped in surprise.

Laughter could be heard from the rain cloud that Gohan swore was following them earlier. Floating up Gohan was surprised to see Rainbow Dash rolling around inside of it.

"I see your having fun Dashie." Gohan said with his arms folded across his chest.

"Ah Ha Ha I'm sorry everyone but it was just too perfect of an opportunity to pass up!" Rainbow said as she continued to roll around.

Twilight was about to yell something up at her but was interuppted by a larger lightning strike flashing above them.

Rainbow Dash flew out of her cloud and cowered behind Gohan trying to figure out where the lightning had come from.

Suddenly a larger cloud floated down to them and with a small pop came the grinning face of Derpy Hooves.

"Did I scare you Rainbow Dash?" She asked, amusement clearly on her face.

Rainbow Dash blushed as she popped out from behind Gohan "I wasn't scared...I just fell out of my cloud and hanged onto Gohan so I wouldn't fall!".

"But you have wings, you could have just flew to stop yourself from falling." Gohan said smirking.

Rainbow Dash huffed as the others started laughing before they all left to enjoy the rest of Nightmare Night.

(Hours later)

Gohan and the others spent the rest of the night enjoying the many exciting activities that the ponies set up.

Twilight had won the grand prize in the Nightmare Night trivia contest. Fluttershy had won four new fishes while playing ring toss. Pinkie Pie was challenging the hungriest ponies in town to a pie eating contest. Rarity was trying to win first place in a dress making contest. Applejack was making sure that everything was running smoothly. Rainbow Dash and Derpy were teaming up to play pranks on everyone, and Spike had fell asleep after eating half of his supply of candy.

Gohan and Luna however were preparing to make their return back to the castle. Luna had to return so she could relieve her sister of duty, and Gohan promised that he would stay up beside her for the rest of the night.

Before they could get into the carriage they were stopped by the mayor.

"Excuse me Princess but wouldn't you both like to stay for the awarding of best costume?" She asked them both with pleading eyes.

Luna though about it for a few moments before saying "I guess that there is not harm in it.".

As everypony in town gathered up the mayor prepared to give her speech.

"As you know everypony, every year we allow you all to vote for who you think has the best costume. We then award the title of king or queen of Nightmare Night." She finished as a pony ran up and handed her a envelope "The winner of this year's Nightmare Night is...Gohan!".

A spotlight was lit and placed on a very surprised looking Gohan. As he walked onto the stage the mare then presented him with a very large looking trophy.

"Well Gohan I think we would all like to know exactly where you got your costume." She said to him and passed him the microphone.

Gohan took it and with a grin he spoke "Well to be honest, every last bit of credit to making this costume goes to my friend Rarity.".

As all eyes started to fall on Rarity she felt herself become embarrassed at the amount of attention she was suddenly getting.

"Well I would like to stay longer to enjoy the festivities but me and Princess Luna really must be getting back to the castle." Gohan said as he gave the microphone back to the mayor.

The sound of applaud filled the air as Gohan and Luna climbed into their chariot.

"Well everypony let's give it up for this year's King of Nightmare Night, and our very own Princess Luna. We hope to see you both next year!". The mayor said as Gohan and Luna waved goodbye at them.

As their chariot ascended into the sky Fluttershy and Twilight grinned at each other.

"I think we can both agree that Luna had a nice night." Twilight said happily.

Fluttershy agreed but couldn't help but feel that same nagging feeling of jealousy. She hoped that it she could suppress it.

As they both returned to the festival a strange cloud pulled floated up and out of the town almost laughing as it left.

(Back at the castle)

Gohan and Luna arrived at the castle safe and sound. As they crossed through the castle entrance they were met by the pleased eyes of Celestia.

"Judging by the smiles that grace your faces, I can tell that you both had a perfect evening." She said with a knowing smile.

Luna hugged her sister tightly "Yes dearest sister, this has been the most wonderful night of my life! I'm so glad that Gohan was there to show me a wonderful time.".

Gohan blushed as he rubbed the back of his head "It was my pleasure princess, I can't wait to do it again.".

Luna's eyes sparkled as he spoke those words "You mean we will have another date soon?".

"Gohan looked confused "Of course Luna, I mean if that's okay with you?".

She didn't reply but only wrapped her arms around him and kissed him softly. Gohan was surprised but did not draw back, instead he slowly wrapped his arms around her waist and soon was returning her feather soft kiss.

The stayed that way for a few minutes loosing awareness that they were kissing right in the middle of the main castle entrance for all to see.

It took Celestia clearing her throat for them to finally break apart as they were met with a slightly annoyed by playful looking Celestia "Well Gohan, if that's the prize for all the date's I certainly can't wait to see how ours will be." she finished with a wink.

Gohan blushed deeply as the Celestia walked up the stairs with a grin "Now don't you two suck each other faces off, you still have a duty to uphold.".

With that the elder sister retreated to her quarters leaving the two stunned in place.

"Is your sister always this forward with everyone?" Gohan asked embarrassed.

Luna sighed "Only if she knows it will make me embarassed. Well let's retire to my quarters, I would love it if you and I spent a little more time together.".

Gohan laughed "Only if your promise not to suck my face off.".

Luna returned his laugh "Oh I promise to leave your handsome face the way it is...I won't promise anything about your lips though.".

Gohan gulped loudly as the princess grabbed his hand and led him up to her room.

Luna smiled as she had finally found the one being in the world that made her happy. Still she had this weird feeling that something was watching them. It felt familiar but at the same time different. All she knew was that whatever it was, had better not try to ruin her happiness.

Chapter 13: The Good, The Bad, and The Fabulous

Gohan awoke from his slumber with a mighty yawn. Looking around he realized that he had been placed back inside his own bedroom.

"How did I get here?" He asked himself trying to recall the events of last night.

A pair of giggles from the other side of his bed caused him to jump. Looking behind him he was met by the grinning faces of Luna and Celestia.

"Aww you were sleeping so peacefully." Celestia said sitting on the edge of the bed while her sister cuddled up to his side.

"How long was I out?" Gohan asked laying his head back down on the pillow.

This time Luna decided to answer "Well Gohan, after dear sister retired for the night we spent most of the night chatting, cuddling, and occasionally smooching. I remember making a short trip to the bathroom, and when I came back you were curled up asleep on the balcony.".

Gohan looked surprised "You didn't carry me all the way back here did you Luna!?".

"Do not worry Gohan, I did not want to disturb you so I used my magic to transport you to your bed." Luna said placing her head onto his chest listening to the soft beat of his heart.

Celestia gave her sister a smirk "I notice that he is wearing one of the separate outfits that miss Rarity left for him...did you also use your magic to change his clothes or did you do that by hand?".

A large blush appeared on Luna's face as he sister called her out.

Gohan eyes grew large as he thought of Luna removing all of his clothes and changing him into new ones.

Thinking fast he decided to change the conversation "Um...So what are everyone's plans for the day?".

Knowing that she had teased him enough Celestia answered his question "Today I must fill out some paperwork that should have been done days ago, Luna is taking her painting lessons, and you my little friend are meeting Rarity at her boutique for your date.".

"She wants us to have our date today?" Gohan asked surprised that he was going to have his second date so soon.

"Yes dear, and as I recall she seemed pretty miffed at being submerged into a tank of freezing cold water." Celestia grinned at him.

Gohan had a fearful look on her face "You don't think that she believes I put Applejack up to that do you?".

Raising her head Luna gave him a mischievous smirk "I wouldn't worry about that Gohan, if that is what she believes you could always give her some nice romantic smooches to make her feel better. I know that it works for me.".

Laughing at her comment Gohan rose out of the bed. Moving to his closet he checked to see what he should wear for the day.

He decided on a nice blue t-shirt and black shorts combo. Taking the items out of the wardrobe Gohan turned to the two sisters.

"Be right back, I just have to change into some new clothes." He said with a blush.

Both Celestia and Luna gave him a smirk as the elder sister spoke "You don't have to go anywhere Gohan, after all when we get better acquainted with each other we will be seeing much more of each other if you know what I mean.".

Gohan felt as if his face was going to melt as Celestia teased him. Luna was also staring at him intently as if hoping that he would do as her sister requested.

Her prayers were answered as Gohan with a sigh began to slowly remove the outer layer of his clothes. Soon he was down to his boxers, as he felt both princess's gazes lock onto him. It was as he was a piece of meat in a tank of hungry piranhas.

Quickly he began putting on the fresh clothes he had picked out, and with his saiyan hearing he could have sworn he heard them groan in disappointment.

"Oh Gohan you are such a little tease you know?" Celestia smirked at him as she batted her eyelashes in a flirty manner.

As he finally slipped on the shirt felt a pair of arms encircle him.

"Oh I can't wait for when it is my turn to spend time with you. I know some romantic locations that I would love to go see." Celestia moaned wishing that he didn't have to leave.

Luna sighed as she watched her sister all but throw herself at Gohan "Now, now dear sister if we spend the day keeping Gohan from Miss Rarity then we will never get to our duties.".

Celestia groaned and let go of the blushing half-saiyan "Yes sweet sister, you are right. Alright Gohan it would not do well to keep your date waiting.".

Gohan nodded quickly in agreement and rushed out of the room.

Celestia laughed to herself seeing the young boy's antics as adorable.

"Really sister are you going to give him a heart attack before he can even take you out." Luna said laying across Gohan's bed.

Celestia shot her sister a playful look "Don't be such prude Luna, it's been so long since I've felt like a young mare instead of a stuffy old princess. On a more serious note though I am sure that Gohan is the one I wish to share my heart with.".

Giving her sister a genuine smile, Luna stood up to hug her sister "I feel the exact same way dear sister. He is so young, but a the same time I feel as if he is more mature than any other stallion I could ever meet. I just wonder if the others will feel the same way we do.?".

"Do not worry Luna, I have a feeling that all of them have a longing for Gohan in their hearts, especially Miss Fluttershy." Celestia said as they separated.

Luna smiled as they started to exit the room "This has given me inspiration for something to paint during my lessons.

As the door closed a strange wind blew just outside the window.

(With Gohan)

As Gohan made his way out of the castle he began to worry.

"I hope Rarity isn't too made about being dunked last night." He said to himself as he called for one of the chariots.

Normally he would just fly back to Ponyville so he could get there as quick as possible, but he felt as if he could make Rarity happy if they could be carried around by one of the Princess's own personal chariots.

As he the two pegasus guards took off Gohan couldn't help but think of his friends. He would have to thank Twilight Sparkle for filling him in on what each of the girls liked while they were searching for Luna last night.

He learned that Twilight was a fan of science, and literature. Rarity loved all things fancy, and tasteful. Applejack loved tending her farm and being wild. Pinkie Pie loved parties, making sweeats, running the bakery, watching the cake twins, eating sweets, and having fun with her friends. Rainbow Dash enjoyed speed, and finding ways to join the Wonderbolts. And last but not least Fluttershy loved tending her garden, and taking care of her lovely animals.

He began to sweat as he thought of all the different styles he would have to get used to if he wanted to be in such varied relationships.

Noticing the very fidgety looking Gohan sitting in the chariot seat, one of the pegasus stallions called back to him.

"Is everything alright back there sir? Do you need us to return to the castle?" He asked as Gohan tried to gain control of his nerves.

"No! I'm perfectly fine, just a little nervous." He replied and took a deep breath.

The two guards gave each other an amused look as they began to increase their speed.

Soon the chariot arrived at Rarity's boutique and Gohan hopped out.

"You two don't mind waiting here for me?" He asked the two.

They gave him a salite as the first replied "Yes sir we are under order's from Princess Celestia to escort you until your day with Miss Rarity has been concluded.".

Thanking them Gohan quickly rushed inside the boutique.

After a few moments had passed one of the stallions laughed "Five hundred bits says he doesn't last the day with her.".

Chuckling in agreement the other stallion accepted the bet.

(Inside the boutique)

The first thing Gohan noticed when he walked inside was the sweet scent of perfume. Looking around he saw many mannequins all loaded with different dresses. Every single one of them looked as if they had been made with the finest fabrics , and gems in all the land.

"Areyou home Rarity?" He called out hoping to get a response.

Listening closely he could faintly hear the sound of running water coming from the upper level of Rarity's home. Using his saiyan hearing he climbed up the stairs and tried to locate the source of the water.

Soon he came up to a large door that looked as if he had been carved out of diamond. Without even thinking he grasped old of the door knob and rushed in.

"Rarity are you in he...?" His voice caught in his throat as he saw the sight in front of him.

Standing there with water running down her nude body was Rarity.

Covering his eyes Gohan tried to slowly back out of the room. But before he could make his way out of the door his foot caught onto Rarity's discarded dress , and sent him tumbling down to the ground.

Shrieking loudly, Rarity quickly pulled the shower curtain in front of her body "G..G..Gohan! What are you doing watching me shower!?".

Unable to from words Gohan jumped to his feet and ran back down the stairs.

As he wiped the sweat from his forehead a small tap on his back caused him to almost jump out of his skin. Spinning around he was met with the worried face of Sweety Belle.

"Are you okay Gohan? You look like you just saw a ghost." She asked him.

Letting out a deep sigh Gohan answered her "I'm fine Sweetie Belle, I just accidentally walked in on your sister while she was taking a shower.".

Sweetie Belle covered her mouth with her hand as she tried to hold back her laughter.

"Yeah, yeah laugh it up." Gohan said unamused.

Giggling softly she placed her hands behind her back "So what are you doing here in the first place?".

Sitting down in a chair against the wall Gohan answered "Well to be hinest I came to pick Rarity up for out date.".

Sweetie Belle's eyes lit up as she heard his words "You mean you and my sister are going to fall in love, get married, and have lots of babies!".

Gohan blushed embarassedly as the small filly exitedly began to plan out his and her sister's futre.

"Sweetie Belle calm down you are going to give the poor boy a heart attack!" A voice suddenly called.

Slowly descending the stairs dressed in a dazzling scarlet red dress was Rarity.

Gohan struggled for words as she sashayed he way to him.

Seeing his face Rarity decided to tease him "Has my looks and glamor left you breathless handsome?".

As Gohan wiped the drool that had suddenly formed on his lip, Sweetie Belle hugged her sister.

"Where are you going to go for your date sister?" She asked Rarity.

Smiling widly the fashionista went over to her closet and pulled out a somewhat large chest "Where we are going is a surprise Sweetie Belle. Now since we will be gone most of the day Applejack has agreed to let you spend the day with Applebloom on the farm.".

Sweetie Belle jumped for joy knowing that she wouldn't have to stay stuffed up inside "Oh thank you, thank you, thank you sister I love you!".

"I love you too little sister just please don't get too dirty. I don't want to have to spend all night getting the mud out of your coat again." Rarity said as she thought of all the bottles of shampoo she had to go through to make her sister clean again.

"Don't worry sis, I'll be responsible while you and Gohan are out making babies." Sweetie Belle inocently spoke.

Rarity and Gohan's eyes shot open wide. Rarity loved her sister very much but she felt sometimes she didn't understand how things work.

"Sweetie Belle we will not simply make babies after going out on one date. We are just testing out our compatibility to see if we can be in a happy relationship. Even after that it will take eternal commitment to each other for us to take a relationship further." Rarity said fanning herself with her hands.

Gohan felt his nose start bleeding as he thought about what Rarity meant.

"Well I think you two should be together sooner rather than later, after all Gohan was watching you in the shower." Sweetie Belle said with a smirk.

Rarity blushed in embarassement "Sweetie-Belle who is teaching you to sound like that1?".

The small filly giggled and quickly ran out of the boutique. Both Rarity and Gohan sat in perfect silence for the next couple of minutes, too embarassed to say anything.

Deciding to be the first one to say something Gohan softly spoke "R..Rarity should we get going on our date?".

Nodding her head in agreement she grabbed her best hat and followed him out the door.

The second she stepped out she was surprised to see a fancy chariot with two royal guards standing in front of her.

"Why Gohan you spared no expense for out transportation did you?" She said batting her eyelashes at him.

The two guards rolled their eyes and made goofy faces as Rarity showed her affection.

"So Rarity where are we headed?" Gohan asked curiously.

Rarity's eyes glimmered as she excitedly answered him "We are going to spend a marevelous day in Canterlot.".

Gohan thought for a moment and remembered that Canterlot was the capital where the castle was located. He was interested in going there since the only two places he had been so far was the castle itself and Ponyville.

"I almost forgot!" Rarity quickly said and ran back into the boutique.

Gohan looked towards the guards and received a confused shrug in responce. They could hear fumbling coming from the top of the boutique. Then without warning three large suitcases came flying out of the window and into the arms of the three of them.

Gohan caught the first suitcase like it was nothing but the two guards were knocked to the ground struggling to get up.

"I cannet forget my supplies." Rarity said carefully throwing her mane behind her shoulder.

Gohan was still confused "Why do you need suitcases for a date?".

Rarity grinned and grabbed his hand "It's nothing you should worry yourself with dear. I just have to make a quick pitstop when we arrive.".

For some reason Gohan had a very bad feeling but was pulled into the chariot before he could make any objections.

As the chariot took off a soft chuckling could be heard before fading into the wind.

(Canterlot)

"Wow!" Gohan exclaimed as he marvelled at the tall buildings around him.

Rarity shard his fasination as she gave herself a twirl "Isn't it just wonderful Gohan? This is where the most glamourous ponies live.".

Gohan nodded as he carried Rarity's luggage "Yes it is pretty amazing. To be honest this is the second time I've been to a city this large.".

Rarity gasped as she hear this "My word Gohan, you simply must get out more often!".

Gohan grinned as they walked down the street. He felt kinda strange though, it was if eyes were staring at him from all sides. Looking around he noticed many well dressed ponies were watching their every movement.

He gave a sigh of relief as he followed Rarity into what looked like a giant theatre.

"Well here we are Gohan, the biggest fashion show of the year!" Rarity said with a very wide smile.

That's when realization suddenly hit Gohan "Rarity...You're not planning on entering me in the show are you?".

His question fell on deaf ears as Rarity had already made her way to the front of the registration line.

She quickly filled out the application form and the fee for entering.

"Well Gohan we are on in four hours, so we have to work fast!" She said and pulled him through the building.

He soon found himself in a small but roomy dressing room with Rarity pulling out many outfits for him to try on.

"Now Gohan the key to being a good model is to move gracefully across the runway.' Rarity said moving up and down the room as an example.

Gohan was still doubtful about why she wanted him to be the model "Rarity I don't know if I can do this. I mean isn't this a show for girls?".

Rarity gave him her best set of puppy eyes and pouted at him "So you don't want to help me after all the things I've done for you? I make you clothes, help you win Luna's heart, and you can't be bothered to walk across a littly itty bitty stage for me? Am I just someone you can just use and abuse whenever you see fit!?" she finished and dramatically fell down onto a couch.

Gohan sighed as she gave him a guilt trip "Alright, alright I'm sorry. It's just that i've never done anything as fancy as this before so i guess I'm a little nervous.".

Smiling widely Rarity jumped up to hug him "Oh you won't forget this darling! When I am done with you, every pony in Equestria will be begging to have you at their parties.".

Gohan sighed as images of really boring upperclass parties filled his mind.

He snapped out of it were interuppted by Rarity speaking again "Now Gohan, stay right here while I go size up the competition.".

Exiting the room Rarity left Gohan sitting in a chair as confused as when he had arrived.

Minutes passed as Gohan could nothing but twiddle his thumbs. Suddenly he heard two voices getting closer to the room he was in.

"Hurry up Tavi, they're gonna find us soon!" The first voice said sounding out of breath.

"I'm running as fast as I can!" The second voice called out.

Gohan leaned closer to the door trying to hear what was happening. Just as he placed his ear to the door it burst open and he felt himself being pushed to the ground.

Groaning loudly he tried to push whatever was on top of him off. Picking himself off the ground he came face to face with two exhaused mares.

"Um...Are you two okay?" He asked them as they quickly jumped up.

"We are so sorry!" Said the mare with a long black mane.

"Yeah we were just running from some losers back there." The other mare with a spiky blue mane and sunglasses chimed in.

Gohan felt bad for the two becuase they looked as if they had been running for hours. "May I ask what happened to the both of you?".

The spiky haired mare answered him "Well I guess we should start with introductions. I'm Vinyl Scratch, A.K.A DJ Pon-3, and this is my partner Octavia. We were supposed to be performing the music for today's fashion show, but when we showed up up to get ready the snooty owner of this place the snooty owner of this place refused our business and refused to pay us for the trip from Ponyville. So I socked him in the nose, picked up the bits, and ran.".

Octavia moaned in discomfort "It's been like this ever since our home was destroyed and me and Vinyl got together.".

"I'm so sorry, how was your home destroyed." Gohan asked clearly missing the last part.

Octavia sighed and answered "Well it happened when Discord attacked Ponyville with those psycho monsters. We had just finished practicing our music, when suddenly a weird glowing creature crashed right into our living room. Before we knew it the whole house was on fire and had to leave most of our stuff behind.".

Gohan gulped as he realized that while he was fighting Discord and the clones he must have smashed through their home.

"So where have you been staying?" He asked trying not to think about the destruction he caused.

"Mostly we've been crashing out whever our next gig is, and spending our bits on food and equpment repairs." Vinyl said leaning on the door frame.

That's when Gohan's guilt finally got to him "Listen how about after the show I get you both set up at the castle until you can repair your home?".

For some reason he felt like he had made some kind of mistake as the two ponies eyes started sparkling.

"You mean you have connections with the royal palace!?" Octavia asked intrigued.

Gohan nodded his head as Vinyl and Octavia started whispering to each other.

After a few moments they separated and Octavia cleared her throat "Very well we accept your offer Mister...Mister...I'm sorry what is your name kind sir?".

Gohan hel out his hand for Vinyl, and Octavia to shake "My name's Gohan.".

Hearing his name the two ponies eyes grew wide.

"You mean the Gohan that's dating Princess Luna!?". Vinyl Scratch gasped.

Blushing lightly at the sudden admiration Gohan only nodded. He hadn't realized that he would become know for that over beating Discord.

So many questions flashed into the musicians heads. They asked him about how he and the princess got together, what he was doing at the fashion show, and what it was like living in the castle.

Gohan did the best he could to answer the questions bt was not prepared for the next question.

"So if you are dating both the princesses and the wielders of the elements of harmony, how are you gonna fit in your bed?" Vinyl asked with a smirk.

Gohan almost choked on his own saliva as the question took him by surprise.

"Vinyl you can not just ask something that personal!" Octavia scolded Vinyl who was now rolling on the floor laughing.

Breathing deeply Gohan calmed himself down as the door bust open.

"Alright Gohan I'm ba..." Came the voice of Rarity who stopped in mid-sentence as she saw the two mares "And who pray tell, are you two!?".

Gohan quickly answered to avoid any misunderstandings "This is Octavia, and Vinyl Scrath. They are hiding from the owner of this place.".

Narrowing her eyes at the two Rarity continued to brief Gohan her progress "Well Gohan, from what I have seen there are alot of well dressed colts in this fashion show, but nothing that we can't beat.".

She walked over to one of her suitcases and pulled out a bright red outfit "Alright try this one on please.".

Sighing loudly Gohan took off his clothes and slowlt started to dress himself in the garments he was handed.

The three mares blushed and looked away as Gohan got down to his boxers.

After he was finished Gohan looked into a mirror and was pleasently surprised with what he saw.

The outfit was composed of a red t-shirt and a long pair of plants. The shirt was purposely tight and showed off his chiseled abs. A stylish unzipped leather jacket went over it. The pants had designes that were shaped like flame marks , and were held together by a black belt that was studded with rubies.

"Do you like it?" Rarity asked with hopeful eyes.

Turning around to face her Gohan lifted her up in the air and answered "I love it! I just didn't expect you to make something this casual, I was expecting some kind of fancy dress item.".

As he set her back down Rarity fixed her mane and chuckled "Normally if this was for a female fashion show I would make a beautiful dress, but for a male show however fashion demands a strong masculine image like yours.".

"You do look rather dashing if i do say so myself." Octavia said with an encouraging smile.

"Yeah you'll knock those lady judges dead!" Vinyl added with a slap on the back.

The color drained from Gohan's face as he heard Vinyl's comment "Female judges!?".

"Yes Gohan female judges. Who else would be fit to judge such a masculine contest such as this." Rarity said trying to calm him down. "Now look sharp we have to go over how to act during the show.".

Sighing deeply Gohan could only listen as Rarity filled him in on what he should do to please the judges.

(Main show room)

As Gohan left to join the rest of the contestants, mares from all over Canterlot filled the building eager to see how fashionable and hopefully single this year's contestants were.

Rarty, Vinyl Scratch, and Octavia were amongst the ones who were piling around the stage as the announcer prepared to start the show.

"Good afternoon, and welcome to the annual Canterlot Male Fashion Show! We are here to see who is the most rugged male contestant here." The announcer called into her microphone "I would like to introduce this years judges! In the first chair we have Photo Finish!".

Standing up and making a pose Photo Finish addressed the crowd "We are looking for the most stylish, fiercest, and hottest contestants, so give it your all!".

As she sat back down the annoucer introduced the second judge "We are lucky to have with us the lovely wife of Fancy Pants, Fleur-De-Lis!".

The light pink maned pony stood and flicked her mane behind her shoulder and sat back down.

Finally the announcer revealed the final judge "It gives me great pleasure to revel this years VIP (very important pony). All the way from the Royal castle is Princess Celestia!.".

Both Rarity, and Gohan gasped hearing the name of the last judge.

Standing up and smiling brightly Celestia addressed the crows "I am happy to be here on this day, and I personally wish all of today's contestants the best of luck.". She quickly turned to the area where Gohan was peeking around the curtain and gave him a wink.

"What is she doing here!?" Gohan asked himself feeling nervous again.

Out in the crowd Rarity was wondering the same thing.

"Looks like the princess wanted to see her boytoy in action." Vinyl said with a laugh.

Narrowing her eyes Rarity angrily said "Gohan is not her boytoy Miss Vinyl Scratch!".

"looks like someone's jealous." Vinyl smirked seeing how flustered Rarity become at the comment.

At a loss for words Rarity could only bury her face in her hands.

Luckily for her it was time to start the show. Grasping the microphone the announcer walked onto the stage to begin the ceremony.

"Alright everypony our first contestant joins us all the way from the forests of Ponyville. He's an athletic type who spends most days excercising, and wrestling bears. Give it up for Ironsnout the Bison!" She finished as the curtains opened.

Stepping foward with great confidence came Ironsnout. His outfit was composed of a lumberjack's shirt, and a tan pair of pants. It was a simple outfit but did well to show off his muscles. In his left hand he held a large axe that he was now flexing with on the stage. After a few poses he ended his strut by spinning the axe around him, throwing it in the air, and finally catching it by the handle in his mouth.

The audience applauded as Ironsnout walked off the stage. The judges quickly began to jot down their score's and help them up for all to see.

"It looks like Ironsnout the Bison has scored a twenty-three out of a possible thirty points, what a strong way to se the standard!" The announcer excitedly called out.

Rarity was unimpressed however "He was okay but I just know that Gohan will bring momma the gold!" She said in a almost sinsiter voice.

Both Octavia and Vinyl looked at her uneasily as they heard her.

Noticing their stares Rarity cleared her throat "I mean Gohan has the ability to win with grace, finess, and total sportsmanship.".

Back on the stage the next contestant was ready to take the stage as the announcer called out again "Our next contestant join us from Trottingham. He enjoys swimming, cooking, and long trots in the rain. Please welcome Cerulean Blue the Unicorn!".

Walking out onto the stage Cerulean flashed a wide smile to the audience. Like a bunch of schoolgirls about twenty mares swooned in delight. He wore a large black raincoat that covered his whole body, and what looked like a chef's hat on top of his head. Suddenly he grabbed hold of his coat and flung it off of him into the crowd to reveal a pair of swimming trunks underneath.

The same group that were swooning a minute ago were now all fighting for the jacket.

"Oh what children they are, I would never do anything as disgraceful as that!" Rarity huffed while Vinyl rolled her eyes behind her shades.

Back on stage Cerulean was just about to finish his routine. He quickly reached behind him and pulled out a frying pan and three eggs. Using his unicorn magic he heated up the pan and cracked the eggs into the pan. After a few seconds he spun around as fast as could, and then with a poof he transformed the pan in a beautiful red rose which he placed into his mouth before walking back behind the stage.

"Wow that was a heated performance! I wonder what our judges will have to say about that?" The announcer said grabbing a piece of Cerulean's coat.

The judges jotted down the scores again and held them up for the announcer to see "It looks like for this hot, hot, hot performance Cerulean Blue has scored a twenty-six out of thirty points!".

Octavia looked worried "It will be hard for Gohan to beat a score that large.".

Rarity looked unfazed as she let out a chuckle "I have perfect faith in my dearest Gohan. His performance with blow every contestant out of the water.".

For the next few minutes contestants did their time on the stage and walked off, but none of them reached the perfect score. Finally it was Gohan's turn as the announcer started to introduce him.

"Our last contestant is somewhat a mystery. In his short time here he has defeated Discord in battle, gained the love of Princess Luna, and moved into the castle. The warrior of Equestria Gohan!".

Breathing deeply he tried to apply everything Rarity told him as he walked onto the stage. His first step was to move slowly, and to slowly looked over the crowd with the straightest face he could possibly keep.

As he completed step one he could see a look of wonder appear on the crowds face. Looking out into the crowd he spotted Rarity who nodded for him to start the next part of their plan.

Smirking lightly he flexed his muscles as he felt the hair on his head stand on end. Letting out a small grunt he transformed into his super sayain form causing his jacket to explode leaving him in just the t-shirt, and pants.

The crowd screamed in excitement as Gohan's muscles bulged and his facial expression became more confident.

"Wow it looks like boytoy has some more tricks up his sleeve!" Vinyl Scratch said clearly impressed.

"You should have seen him when his clothes were barely hanging off of him. He looked like a fallen muscular angel." Rarity lustifully spoke a small amount of drool forming around her lips.

Photo Finish was knocked down in surprise "He has de magic! I must have him as my model!".

Celestia flashed her a grin as she announced "Just wait I have a feeling it's not over yet.".

Sure enough Gohan began to put the final phaze of Rarity's plan into effect. Decideing to give the crowd a little something to scream about he began to flex his already bulging muscles.

Sure enough the building was lit up by the sound of screaming mare's jumping up and down in anticipation.

"Alright time to finish this." Gohan spoke to himself as he pumped himself up.

Placing his legs firmly into the ground Gohan began to concentrate hard. Giving a mighty yell his hair extended, his shirt ripped in half, and his pants tightened. He had once again transformed into a super saiyan two.

The whole building shook as the excited ponies watched as Gohan showed off his well-toned body.

"How can he change his body like that, is it magic!?" Octavia said amazed at what just happened.

Rarity laughed as she patted her on the shoulder "Don't worry Octavia, Gohan is the biggest enigma that you will ever see. I don't think any of us know completly what he is capable of.".

As the room quieted down Gohan waited patiently for the judges score.

"Alright everyone the fate of this powerful warrior lies in the hands of our three lovely judges. Will he rise to the top of the heap or will he fall on broken wings? Let's find out!" The announcer said as everyone held their breaths.

The first card to come up from Princess Celestia who as expected held up a perfect ten who gave him another wink.

"The princess gives him a perfect score! Is there something behind that wink as well?" The announcer teased.

Blushing lightly Gohan watched as Photo Finish was the next to hold up a sign.

"Darling you were everything that this competition needed and desires! It is my honor to give you a pefect ten!" Photo Finish screamed out holding up her sign.

"And the usually stone cold Photo Finish gives the only perfect score she has given tonight!" The announcer called again eager to see the final score.

It all came down to Fleur-de-Lis. Rarity had heard tales about how hard it was to please this stone cold vixen. She knew that the only person to ever accomplish such a feat was the fanciest pony himself Fancy Pants.

Fleur looked at him for what seemed like countless seconds. To Gohan it felt like she held his life in her hands. Personally it didn't matter to him if he lost, but he couldn't even think of disappointing Rarity.

Finally without saying a word Fleur stood up from her seat and made her way up to Gohan. The look on her face was one of indifference and to be honest it intimidated him. As she looked Gohan in the eye she motioned for the announcer to hand her the microphone.

"Well contestant Gohan it seems that it is now up to me to decide whether you win or lose. To be honest I have never once given a perfect score to anyone I have ever judged. This is because no one has ever came close to impressing me." She spoke as Gohan kept his face as blank as possible.

Out in the crowd Rarity crossed her fingers in hope that the divine powers were on her side.

The whole building got quiet as everyone became eager to know what Fleur decision was going to be.

As the fashion queen stared Gohan in to eye she did something that no one ever suspected. Wrapping her arms around Gohan's neck she pulled him in close and kissed him on the lips.

Shock and awe was heard everywhere as the spectacle played out.

After about ten seconds she released him and held his arm into the air "I give you the winner of this year's Canterlot Fashion Show...Gohan!".

Rarity jumped as high as she could into the air as the other ponies joined her in her agreement.

Gohan the first year fashion star had beaten all the other's and was about to go home with the gold.

"Not so fast!" Called a voice from all the way at the back of the room.

Twisting around Rarity gave a frustrated groan "Oh no not that moron!".

Standing there with all of the losing contestants was the snobbiest prince Rarity had ever met Prince Blueblood.

"As the owner of this establishment I deam that contestant disqualified for housing two violent ruffians!" Blueblood said as the other contestants grinned.

As Gohan jumped off the stage Vinyl and Octavia walked to his side.

"That's the jerk who tried to rip us off for a job!" Vinyl said glaring daggers at Blueblood.

"Not to mention he called us that horrible name!" Octavia said looking down at the ground.

Gohan could tell that he already hated the guy "Vinyl, Octavia what did he call you both?".

Octavia started to tear up as she tried to form the words "He called us Fi...Fill...Filly...".

She was cut off by Vinyl wrapping her arms around her and finishing the sentence "He called us Filly Foolers!".

The crowd gasped as they heard that dreadful word.

"What a filly fooler?" Gohan asked confused about the word meant.

Vinyl rubbed Octavia's mane as she filled him in "A filly fooler is a mare who dates other mares.".

They both closed their eyes expecting him to judge them on the spot.

They were surprised however as Gohan spoke his next words "What does it matter if you two love each other!?".

"Don't you think it's unnatural?" Octavia asked trying to understand his indifference.

Gohan looked at her very seriously "No one, and I mean No One...can control who you fall in love with.".

The two musicians smiled happily that their new friend understood their choice and accepted them for who they were, but then they were interuppted by the sound a yawn.

"That's very touching and all but I honestly don't care what a little peasent like you things, so get out of the way and let me give these two what's coming to them!" Blueblood threateningly said.

Suddenly a gigantic ball of fire launched into the air.

At first everyone believed that Gohan had angrily launched himself at Blueblood but were surprised to see him rooted in his spot staring up intently.

As the fireball hit the ground Celestia was now standing tall over Blueblood staring down at him angrily.

"AH Aunt Celestia I didn't know you were here!" Shrieked the prince hiding behind the now retreating contestants.

"How dare you try to shame this competition, two poor mares, and my personal friend Gohan!" Celestia said with fire quite literally coming out of her eyes.

Blueblood was at a loss for words as he tried to come up with an excuse "But Auntie I was just trying to...".

Another fiery look from Celestia caused his mouth to seal up "Enough with your excuses! If you ever attempt something this foolish and irresponsible ever again I will strip you of your title and send you to work at the worst rock quarry in Equestria are we clear!?".

Blueblood whimpered, shook his head, and quickly ran away like a frightened dog.

As the princess walked back up to Gohan and the others, she noticed the amazed look from Gohan.

"See Gohan? You're not the only one who can be fierce when the situation calls for it." She smirked and hugged him.

Gohan could only giggle "Just remind me to never make you mad.".

The princess returned his giggle "Don't worry Gohan, I won't be angry with you but I may like to get a little fierce if you catch my drift." She looked over to where Rarity was standing "Correct me if I'm wrong but I think that you have a night that you have to conclude with Miss Rarity. Also don't worry Miss Octavia, and Miss Vinyl Scratch are free to stay at the castle for as long as they like.

Gohan was shocked "How did you know that I was going to ask you about that?".

"Just a hunch, now go." Celestia simply said and pushed him towards Rarity.

Rarity was leaning against a wall as Gohan approached her "So it seems that the show was a great success.".

Gohan chuckled lightly "It was but next time, how about we just do something quiet just me and you.".

"It's a date then!" Rarity agreed clasping her hands together.

They were interuppted by the sound of the announcer clearing her throat behind them.

"Well Competitor Gohan on behalf of the entire city of Canterlot I hereby present you with this crystal trophy and welcome you to stay for a free pampering at the city spa!." She gleamed and handed him his prize.

Gohan quickly passed the trophy to Rarity "I think you will enjoy this more than I will.". He then looked back to the announcer "It wouldn't be too hard to extend the spa visit to two people would it?".

Looking confused for a moment she looked at Rarity and then back to Gohan. Quickly getting the message she spoke "Oh well...I suppose we can arrage for both you and your lady friend to enjoy your prize together.".

Gohan smiled as Rarity looked at him bashfully.

"Gohan you really didn't need to do that for me, this date has been far more than I could have ever asked for." She said as Gohan pressed a finger to her lips.

Gohan pulled her close and kissed her softly on the lips "As your date it is my job to make sure that everything is perfect from start to finish. Besides i don't think that I could relax if I went by myself.".

Blushing at both the kiss, and his comment Rarity pulled him back and kissed him deeply.

As the two continued to lock lips Princess Celestia smirked before turning to leave.

(Back at the Castle)

As Celestia entered the Castle she was greeted by Luna who hugged her.

"Dear sister, how was the fashion show?" She asked and almost laughed at the surprised look on Celestia's face.

"Why whatever do you mean sister? I just went out for a stroll." Celestia replied trying not to look guilty.

"Sister you left for you walk hours ago. It doesn't take a genius to know where you were." Luna smirked.

Celestia sighed knowing that she had been caught "Alright Luna yes I was at the fashion show, but I had a perfect reason to.".

Seeing the look of seriousness on her sister's face Luna became concerned "Sister is something going on that I should know about?".

Making sure that no one could hear them Celestia leaned close to her sister "I believe that Gohan and the others are in danger.".

"What!? How can you tell?" Luna said clearly shocked.

Celestia continued her story "I don't know know why but lately I have been feeling this strange familiar energy. Everywhere Gohan goes it seems to follow him, but it never acts.".

Thinking hard Luna came up with a hypothesis "Sister do you think that it could be...".

She was stopped as Celestia placed a hand over her mouth as the castle door opened.

Spinning around sharply they were met by the two faces of Vinyl Scratch and Octavia.

"Umm...Sorry to interupt your highnesses, but Gohan sent us here to ask about living arrangements her at the castle." Octavia asked trying to be as respectful as possible, while Vinyl only nodded.

Celestia let out a sigh of relief "Oh yes that is right now I remember.". She clapped her hands and in came a few servants "Follow me you two, I will show you the way to Gohan's room while the servants get your things.".

The two quickly and followed her. As Celestia passed Luna she gave her a look that told her to speak to her later about the matter.

As the night princess found herself alone in the room she nervously spoke to herself "Please Gohan, whatever you do be careful out there.".

Out in the darkness however a strange voice snickered to itself "It seemed that I was a little careless. No matter soon I will have my revenge and no one will stop me, not even that annoying little brat!".

Cackling loudly the creature turned back into a cloud of energy and flew off into the night sky.

Well everyone enjoy the chapter. There will be another one before the next monday. Also see if you can guess who the threatening creature is that I keep speaking about.

Alright my spellchecker is still having problems so yes there will be grammar errors. This is the Gohan / Pinkie Pie chapter, so expect some randomness.

Chapter 14: The Half Saiyan Babysitter

"Hello anybody in there!?" A voice called out to a sleeping Gohan.

Opening his eyes slowly Gohan could faintly make out the face of Pinkie Pie as she softly shook him awake.

"Mmm Where am I?" He groggily asked as he sat up.

"Well you silly boy, you and Rarity had a doozy of a party last night and you fell asleep on her couch." Pinkie said with a giggle.

Gohan looked confused as he tried to remember what happened last night "Why do I feel like I just got ran over by a herd of wild animals?".

"I think I can answer that" Applejack said as she walked into the room "Well sugarcube after ya and Rarity got back to Ponyville, ya both came over to Pinkie's and bought near every sweet ya could get your hands on. I guess drinking both my special cider and eatin all those sweets caused ya to have a sugar high. After that ya passed out so we carried ya to Rarity's and laid ya down on the couch.".

Hearing about his action's last night caused Gohan to groan loudly "Oh my Kami, I really did all that? Rarity's never gonna forgive me.".

"Oh I wouldn't say that darling." Rarity said walking down the stairs dressed in a silk robe. "I actually had a lot of fun last night. Granted that you passed out, no harm came to anyone.".

Breathing a sigh of relief Gohan stood up and stretched "Well besides this massive headache I have, I guess everything turned out okay.".

At that point Fluttershy, Twilight Sparkle, and Rainbow Dash walked into the boutique.

"Gohan I'm glad you're okay!" Fluttershy said running up and wrapping her arms around him.

Blushing Gohan returned her hug "I'm alright Fluttershy, I just had a sugar crash.".

"I know but you were making so many groaning sounds while you slept." Fluttershy said while burying her head into his shoulder.

Twilight laughed patting her friend on the back "She didn't leave your side for a second last night.".

Gohan smiled warmly as Fluttershy continued to hold him. She really did care about him a lot. To be honest he wanted to have some one on one time with her, but he remembered that last night he promised Pinkie Pie that he would spend the day with her.

When the two finally parted Pinkie Pie jumped up on Gohan's back excited to start their day.

"Alright lover boy it's Pinkie Pie's time to shine so let's get a move on!" She said hopping down and pulling him out the door.

Rainbow Dash chuckled as soon as they were out of sight "How much you wanna bet Gohan will come back exhausted?".

Twilight, Rarity, and Applejack rolled their eyes at her before being surprised at what Fluttershy said next.

Reaching into her dress pocket she pulled out a small sack "Fifty bits says that Pinkie will drop before Gohan does!".

The other ponies looked at her with blank faces before erupting in a fit of laughter. As the others chipped in their portion of bits for the bet, Pinkie Pie and Gohan were already moving through the streets of Ponyville.

(With Pinkie and Gohan)

"Oh my gosh Gohan I am so exited! You are the first coltfriend I have ever had, even though you are dating all of us, and your a strange being from another dimension and Rarity was telling me how good a coltfriend you were to her. The point is I am really glad that you are with me today!" Pinkie Pie finished has she hugged Gohan tighter to her body.

Chuckling Gohan wrapped an arm around her shoulder in return "I'm glad to be here with you to Pinkie . So is our destination?".

Smiling widely Pinkie excitedly answered "We are going to visit my two favorite foals in the whole land the Cake twins!".

Gohan was intrigued "I didn't know that you babysit Pinkie Pie.".

"Are you kidding, I babysit those two every week! They are the most huggable, snuggable, cute, smart, playful, and energetic pranksters I know." Pinkie said proudly recalling the first time she babysat them.

For the next couple of minutes they talked about many things like what kind of things the other liked, their hobbies, and their dreams for the future.

"So Pinkie what is your big dream for the future?" Gohan asked giving her hand a light squeeze.

Thinking about it for a few moments, Pinkie took her time to answer "My dream...is to throw the world's biggest party for everyone in Equestria!".

"But you already throw such great parties. Why would your dream be something that you just do normally." Gohan asked.

Pinkie stopped moving and grabbed him by the sides of his face and looked him right in the eyes "I do it to make people laugh! There is a lot of ponies in this world that are beyond sad. I know because before coming to Ponyville I used live on a rock farm. It was the most depressing place I have ever known. Then one day while I was out in the field, I saw the most wonderful thing appear in the sky. At first I had no idea what was flying over my little filly head then suddenly it exploded into a gigantic Rainbow explosion. It was so strong that it turned my normally straight hair into the curly mane you see before you. It was also the first I genuinely smiled.".

"Wow what cause the explosion!?" Gohan eagerly asked.

"It was our very own Rainbow Dash with her Sonic Rainboom! After I saw it, I swore that I would spend every day making all the ponies and other creatures in Equestria smile and laugh with my parties." Pinkie said letting go of his face and pulling him along.

Gohan couldn't believe the level of selflessness in Pinkie. She seemed to not have any care in the world besides making her friends and others happy.

"You have a good heart Pinkie." He said with a smile.

Pinkie blushed and bowed to him "That's what they tell me...ooh we're here!".

As the arrived at the Bakery they were met by the exhausted face of Mr. and Mrs. Cakes.

" Oh Pinkie we are glad you're here!" Mrs. Cake exclaimed.

Pinkie smiled "Of course I am, I would never miss a chance to watch the twins.".

Mr. Cakes laughed and pulled along both his and his wife's baskets "Alright Pinkie you know the drill. We will be back in five hours so keep the foals happy until we get back.".

Pinkie saluted and answered "You can count on me captain! Private Gohan and I will hold down the fort while you take the package to the destination point!".

"Um...That's nice Pinkie, just please don't break anything." Mrs. Cake said before setting off on their way.

As soon as they were out of site Pinkie pulled Gohan inside the bakery. Letting go of his hand she quickly ran into the back room and brought back the two babies they had come to watch.

"It is my honor to introduce the two most precious babies in Equestria! This little guy is name Pound Cake and he is a Pegasus pony, and this beautiful little girl is named Pumpkin Cake and she is a Unicorn pony." She announced as the two started crawling all over her.

Gohan was confused "But aren't Mr. and Mrs. Cake earth ponies? How in the world did they have a Pegasus, and Unicorn?".

"Well both of them have mixed distant relatives." Pinkie said while taking the two off her shoulders and placing them in their high chairs.

Pinkie Pie pulled out a list that the Cakes had left for her.

Looking over the list very hard Pinkie finally tossed it aside and clapped her hands together "Alright the first thing we have to do is feed these little bundles of joy.".

Walking into the kitchen area she pulled two cans of baby food from the cupboard.

"Would you like me to feed Pumpkin Cake while you feed Pound Cake?" Gohan asked trying to assist her.

Pinkie nodded as they both sat down side by side next to the babies "Alright you two open up for the choo-choo train!".

The two babies looked at each other mischievously before opening their mouths wide. As Gohan, and Pinkie placed a spoonful of applesauce into their mouths, a strange feeling came over Gohan.

"Pinkie get down!" Gohan yelled before tackling Pinkie onto the floor.

His timing couldn't have been better as the two foals launched their mouthful of food across the room, knocking down two portraits on the wall.

"Wow Gohan good job! How did you know that they were going to do that?" Pinkie asked impressed that Gohan caught on to something before her Pinkie-sense could.

Helping her up Gohan shrugged "I don't really know. I just felt like something was about to go wrong.".

"Well with these two, you never know what is going to happen. Let's finish feeding them so we can..." Pinkie stopped speaking as she noticed the two empty high chairs "Oh no where did those two get off to now?".

Looking around they both tried to spot the missing babies. Listening closely Gohan used his Saiyan hearing to locate them.

"So do they do this all the time?" He asked concentrating hard.

"Well yeah, you should have seen it last time. It was amazing because somehow they ended up on the room and were throwing fruit down at the other towns-ponies." Pinkie said smiling at the memory of the fruit covered ponies.

They didn't have to listen for long as the sound of a loud crash came from across the house. Running quickly towards the sound they were surprised at what they saw.

Somehow the two babies had broken down the door to Pinkie's upstairs room and were now aiming a cannon at them!

"Pinkie Pie what is tha..." He didn't have time to finish as the cannon exploded and sent him flying down the stairs.

"Oh my gosh Gohan!" Pinkie yelled as she rushed down to help him.

Luckily Gohan was uninjured as he rubbed his chest, and shook himself free of the confetti that was now covering him.

"What was that!?" He groaned as she helped brush him off.

"I am so sorry, that was my party cannon. I have no idea how they manage to get through the door, I usually lock it." Pinkie apologized.

Suddenly the two babies crawled past them and out the door.

"Oh No!" Pinkie yelled as they chased after the two.

Looking around Ponyville's busy street Pinkie started to panic "If we don't find those two the Cakes will never forgive me!".

Gohan spun her around to face him and looked her straight in the eye "Let's not panic Pinky, all we have to do is put our heads together.".

Nodding her head Pinkie agreed and they both started to walk around trying to locate the twins.

The sound of shriek caused the both of them to jump.

"That sounded like Twilight!" Gohan said as they quickly ran towards the library.

(With Twilight)

"What in Celestia's name are you two doing!? Get down from there and get those books out of your mouth!" Twilight yelled as the two ransacked her home.

"Twilight!" Yelled Gohan, and Pinkie rushing into the room.

Turning around Gohan let out a sigh of relief "I am so glad to see you two, the twins are out of control and eating my books!".

Staring up at the ceiling they were now watching as Pumpkin Cake was now using her Unicorn magic to rip pages out of one of Twilight's books.

Twilight almost fainted as she watched in horror at what the babies were doing "NNNOOO! That was a one of a kind guide on magic spells!".

Gohan quickly flew up and attempted to grab onto the now giggling foals.

"I got you!" He announced and spread his arms wide.

Thinking quickly Pumpkin levitated a large quantity of library books and launched them into Gohan, who was sent tumbling to the ground.

Looking up in the air Pinkie waved a fist at the two "You both get down here this instant, or there will be consequences!".

Laughing loudly they both stuck their tongues at her before disappearing through a hole in the roof.

"Why are those two so wild!?" Twilight said as she tried to piece back together the ripped pages of her books.

Pinkie assisted in helping Gohan to his feet and helped Twilight pick up all of the books on the ground "I am so sorry Twilight, we were feeding them so they could take their nap but one thing led to another, and they started going crazy!".

Twilight sighed and fixed her mane "Well you had better chase them down before they ruin another pony's home.".

Apologizing again Gohan, and Pinkie ran after the twins.

Hearing the sound of the door close Spike crawled out from under a table "Is it safe to come out?".

"Yes Spike the little monsters are gone, which means we have to spend the rest of the day picking up and reorganizing everything." Twilight said as she began cleaning.

Groaning loudly the small dragon grabbed a broom and followed Twilight's lead.

(Back with Gohan and Pinkie)

"Oh now where they go!?" Pinkie groaned as she frantically looked around.

All the towns-ponies were now out and about conversing like any other day which made it hard to spot two tiny babies.

Thinking very hard an idea formed in Pinkie's brain.

Looking high in the sky she spotted Rainbow Dash lounging on a cloud "Rainbow Dash could you come down here for a minute!?".

The rainbow maned pony groaned and looked over the side of the cloud "Pinkie what are you bothering me for? It's my only day off!".

"I can see that and I would hate to be a bother but could you help us spot the cake twins?" Pinkie asked with hope sparkling in her eyes.

Rainbow remained silent for the next few minutes before answering again "Sure Pinkie I'll the both of you out on one condition.".

"Ooh, ooh name it and we'll do it!" Pinkie said happy that she would now have a bird's eye view Ponyville.

Rainbow leaped off the cloud and hovered in front of them both grinning wickedly "Well if you want my help then I want Gohan to spend the entire day tomorrow helping me improve my tricks!".

Gohan began to sweat as Rainbow eyed him as if he was a piece of meat.

"Alright fine just please find the twins!" Pinkie said impatiently.

Giving Gohan a quick wink Rainbow flapped her wings and took off into the sky.

"Do you think that she can spot them from all the way up there? I mean these are two babies we're talking about, so if we look like ants form up there then just imagine how small they must be." Gohan questioned unsure how she would spot them.

Pinkie confidently pumped her fist into the air "If anypony could find a needle in a haystack it would be Dashie...or in some cases Applejack because she lives for haystacks.".

Before Gohan could question her logic Rainbow Dash called down to them "I see them! It looks like they are bugging some poor sap at the post office.".

"Thanks Dashie!" Pinkie yelled and pulled Gohan along with her.

Watching the two take off, Rainbow Dash plopped herself back down onto the cloud "Well that was my good deed for today, time to get some sleep.".

Pinkie and Gohan however were now halfway to the post office and were getting slightly annoyed.

"Do they always act this crazy are did that apple sauce have some kind of secret formula that I'm not aware of?" Gohan said beginning to run out of breath.

Pinkie shrugged as she continued running "I just don't understand, that applesauce was supposed to be sugar-free on account of what happened last time.".

This caused Gohan to grow concerned "What exactly happened last time!?".

Blushing Pinkie began to recall the events of last week's sugar rush "Well remember when I said that they were throwing food off the roof last time I watched them? Well they didn't exactly throw them off, but rather they were firing them out of my party cannon.".

Gohan's jaw dropped as he thought about the impact a cannon fired piece of fruit would have "Wouldn't that cause major damage to both the ponies and buildings?".

"Well duh, that's why I have to keep the party cannon locked in my room out of irresponsible babies reach!" Pinkie said as this was a normal occurrence.

Finally the two reached the post office which was looking to be in poor shape.

"No please stop that, those aren't for eating!" A voice called from inside the small building.

"That voice sounds familiar." Gohan said to himself as he rushed inside.

Lo and behold, hiding behind the counter of the post-office swinging a broom around her head to keep the twins away was a very scared looking Derpy Hooves.

"Derpy!" Gohan called out in surprise.

Hearing the voice of her friend, Derpy jumped out from behind the county and hid behind him still clutching her broom "G..G..Gohan please save me from the two little monsters.".

Gohan nodded as Pinkie stepped in front of them "Don't worry you two, me and my little baby cage will stop these two from escaping!".

Pinkie threw herself behind the counter with a rather large cage that had seemingly come from nowhere.

Derpy and Gohan could only hear the sound of tussling as Pinkie tried desperately to catch the twins.

"Was she carrying that huge thing the whole time?" Derpy asked surprised that someone as small as Pinkie could carry something that large.

Gohan shrugged at the mail pony "Don't look at me, I didn't notice it till she brought it out. I guess that's why she's the queen of randomness.".

After a few minutes the noises finally stopped as Pinkie hopped over the counter out of breath.

"I showed them who's boss, yes I did!" She triumphantly remarked as she slung the cage over her shoulder revealing the two crying foals "This cage is made out of a special crystal that stops unicorn's from using their magic. Not even both their prankster brains could get them out of this trap!".

Both Gohan, and Derpy stood slack jawed as they stared at the now gloating pony.

"Where...did you get that cage Pinkie?" Gohan asked still not sure what had just happened.

Pinkie laughed as she sat down on top of the cage "Mr. and Mrs. Cakes bought it so they would have something to catch the twins if they ever went on a sugar rush like today. You won't believe how much this thing cost!".

Choosing to let the topic go Gohan changed the subject "Alright now that we've caught the little troublemakers what do we do now?".

Pinkie thought about it for a minute "Well I guess we should get them back to the bakery so we can wait for the Cakes to get home. We still have about three hours.".

Gohan sighed as he thought about watching them for that long.

Seeing the unhappy look on Gohan's face the pink pony tried to cheer him up "Don't worry Gohan I know just the thing to keep them calm. If you can hold out for just a little while longer I will bake you my super-duper-ultra-supreme-hot fudge and strawberries-mega cake!".

The prospect of food caused Gohan to become intrigued "Mega cake you say!?".

They both laughed as they prepared to walk back home.

As they left the post-office Derpy's employer walked in from giving the other mail ponies their orders.

Taking a good long look around him and then staring at Derpy his frown continued to grow.

Knowing that she wouldn't be able to explain the mess that the two foals had made she quickly began to use her broom to sweep up while groaning loudly "I just don't know what went wrong.".

(Back at the Bakery)

Taking a deep breath Pinkie sat the cage down in the living room and placed the twins on the couch.

"Alright you two I need you both to calm down so me and Uncle Gohan don't have a heart attack!" Pinkie said clearly exhausted.

As Gohan looked at their faces he knew something bad was about to happen as their small lips started puckering and tears began to form in their eyes. They both let out a ear-splitting cry as Pinkie rushed to find a way to calm them down.

"Um...I know how about some toys!?" She spoke to herself before bringing some of their favorite toys over to them.

Without even wasting anytime the toys were quickly rejected and thrown back at Pinkie.

"Okay you don't want toys...well how about some funny faces?" She asked before stretching her face into the most wildest faces she can think of to cheer them up.

This only seemed to make things worse as the two began crying much harder than normal as Pinkie soon began to run out of ideas.

Gohan who had been leaning against the wall thought of something that might make them happy. Walking over to Pound cake he softy picked him up and began to burp him over his shoulder.

As the air passed through his lips the small baby stopped crying and began to bury his face into Gohan's shoulder in affection.

Pinkie watched in amazement as he continued to do the same thing for Pumpkin Cake. Just like her brother after she had burped she wrapped her small arms around Gohan's neck and began to coo happily.

"Wow Gohan how did you know that they needed to be burped?" Pinkie asked wanting to know his secret.

Gohan didn't know how to answer her question "I don't honestly know myself, it just felt natural.".

They all sat in silence for the next couple of minutes before the two foals began to yawn tiredly.

"Awe looks like two little babies are ready for their nap." Pinkie said seeing the two now peaceful looking twins.

Motioning for Gohan to follow her Pinkie led him up to their room where he sat them down into their crib. Making sure they were properly covered up they exited and shut the door softly behind them.

As they reentered the living room Pinkie grabbed hold of Gohan's hand and pulled him into a tight hug.

"Thank you for being such a wonderful assistant baby sitter Gohan." She said as she looked him in the eyes.

Gohan smiled as he looked down at the smaller girl "Thank you for one of the most interesting days I have ever experienced.".

They both giggled as they moved into the kitchen.

"As I recall I owe you one of my special mega cakes, and since the twins are asleep this would be the perfect time for me to bake it." Pinkie said beginning to pull out the ingredients.

"You don't have to go through that much trouble for me, a quick snack will be fine" Gohan replied before dodging a spoon that Pinkie threw at him.

The pink mare shushed him as she began to cook "Don't even try to talk me out of it mister. When I promise my friends a cake for their hard work I follow through on it.".

Giving a defeated sigh Gohan watched as the master of parties began to work. Strangely the simple act of her baking was a beautiful sight to see. To him it was like watching a master painter create a work of art.

He was brought out of his thoughts by Pinkie snapping her fingers in front of him "Hello in there, anybody home?".

Shaking his head Gohan grinned "Sorry, Pinkie just admiring the fantastic cooking work.".

Pinkie blushed after hearing his praise. To be honest no one ever really took notice of the work she put into her baked goods.

"Awe thank you Gohan, you are such a sweet fella! The cake will be done in about thirty minutes, so we have just have to find a way to entertain ourselves until the it's done." She said as they went to go sit on the living couch.

For the next couple of minutes they sat in silence as they tried to find some kind of topic to talk about. Finally Pinkie broke the ice with a simple question.

"So Gohan how are you so good with babies?" She asked him.

Gohan thought about it and gave his simple reply "Well to be honest I just felt this weird feeling inside me. It was like someone was telling me exactly what I should do to stop them from crying.".

Pinkie laughed as she heard his explanation "Well you should thank whatever feeling you had. I just hope it help you out when we have our kids.".

Gohan's eyes shot wide open as he heard her "Our kids!?".

"Well yeah, our kids. I want to have two just like the twins!" Pinkie announced already imagining how they would look.

A loud thump cause or to look around in surprise. Turning around quickly she noticed that Gohan was now collapsed on the ground with a steady stream of drool coming out of his mouth.

Turning her head to the side Pinkie looked at him with a puzzled look "Oh poor Gohan must be so tired. I'll let him sleep while I finish the cake.

(Two Hours later)

Yawning loudly Gohan rose from his slumber.

"Finally you wake your lazy bones up." Pinkie laughed as she held the twins in her arms.

Gohan quickly jumped up and apologized to her "I am so sorry Pinkie, I didn't mean to pass out on you!".

The two babies laughed as they crawled out of Pinkie's arms and made their way over to the half-saiyan.

Pinkie just waved him off with a smile "Don't worry about it. To tell the truth you looked so peaceful just laying there so I didn't want to wake you up. Although while you were sleeping I finished the cake, and changed these two's dirty diapers.".

Gohan scooped up the foals as they crawled to them and smiled as the wrapped their little arms around their neck.

"So when are Mr. and Mrs. Cake coming back?" Gohan asked Pinkie who was now spinning herself in a circle.

"Oh they came back about twenty minutes ago. Something about a strange cloud chasing them halfway home." Pinkie said trying to spin faster.

At that moment the two ponies in question came though the door.

"It was some kind weird glowing ball cloud. To be honest I thought I could hear it laughing as we were running." Mr. Cakes said unhappy that their delivery was cut short.

Mrs. Cakes patted him on the back and comforted him "It was probrably just your nerves dear. How would a cloud laugh if it has no vocal cords?".

Pinkie laughed as the shaken up Mr. Cakes "Well at least you are both alright and you get to share some of my super-duper-ultra-supreme-hot fudge and strawberries-mega cake!".

She quickly ran into the kitchen and came back with four large slices of cake, and a tiny piece for the two babies to share.

"Thank you dear, this is just what we need after a long day of work." Mrs. Cakes said as she dug into her slice.

Gohan who had already finished his slice, was begging Pinkie for more.

"Wow Gohan I haven't even started eating yet!" She grinned and ran to get him some more.

They all watched in amazement as Gohan devoured piece after piece of Pinkie's delectable cake. Pretty soon he had cleared about two-thirds of the cake.

Mr. Cake who was surprised that someone could eat more than Pinkie, gave Gohan his praise "Well Gohan it's good to see that someone with such a healthy appetite will be taking care of our little Pinkie Pie.".

His wife agreed, as she continued to eat "Just please try to keep her happy. She is like the adopted daughter we always wanted.".

Both Gohan and Pinkie blushed the two adult ponies joked around with them.

Looking at Gohan nervously Pinkie noticed a small amount of cake frosting on the side of his mouth.

"Um..you got a little something on your face Gohan." She softly said and watched him try to wipe it off with his hand "Let..let me get that for you.".

Leaning forwards quickly Pinkie gave him a chaste kiss on the mouth, while managing to clean the icing off his lips.

Mrs. Cake sighed as she watched the cute display "Oh this reminds me of when we were young honey. I was a wild and unpredictable filly, and you were a goofy colt.".

"Hey, what's that supposed to mean!?" Mr. Cakes, and Gohan yelled out at the same time.

A few seconds later they bust out laughing as they realized how right she was.

After everything had died down Pinkie wrapped her hand around Gohan's and asked him "So Gohan, don't you have to be getting back to the castle pretty soon?".

Looking at the clock on the wall Gohan sighed "I suppose I do need to get going but I'm glad I got to spend the day with you.".

Pinkie agreed as she hugged him "I'm glad too. This has been the coolest first date I've ever had...even though it's the only date I've ever had.".

Looking into each other eyes they felt themselves come closer together until the space between their lips closed together.

Almost a minute went by until the sound of Mrs. Cake clearing her throat caused the two of them to break apart.

"Now Pinkie we don't want poor Gohan to get in trouble with the princesses." She said spoon feeding cake into Pumpkin Cakes mouth, while Mr. Cakes did the same for Pound Cake.

As they separated Gohan bowed to them "Thank you for the hospitality and thanks for the great time Pinkie.".

Without another word Gohan bolted out the door and took off for the castle.

Mr. Cake chuckled as Pinkie was swooning from Gohan's kiss "Well Pinkie I'd say Gohan's such a lucky boy to have you.".

Once again the bakery erupted was filled with the sound of laughter, as Gohan was already halfway home.

(At the Castle)

To say that Luna was worried would be an understatement. Gohan had not returned last night and he had also been gone most of today as well.

"Oh where could he be!?" She said to herself while pacing around his room.

Vinyl who was sitting across the room tried to calm the impatient princess down "Take a chill pill Luna, lover boy will be back soon.".

Vinyl, Octavia, and Luna had spent the entire morning getting aquainted with each other as they waited for Gohan to return.

Octavia who was brushing her mane in the mirror agreed with Vinyl "Yes Princess Gohan will return to the castle when he has finished his personal business.".

Sighing deeply Luna sat down on the edge of Gohan's bed and tried to calm herself down.

Suddenly the window burst open and Gohan landed with a small thud inside the room.

"Gohan!" Luna almost screamed as she jumped off the bed to embrace him.

"She's been like that all night!" Vinyl groaned as the midnight maned pony squeezed him tight.

Gohan apologized as he sat down on his bed "Sorry I was spending the day with Pinkie Pie and I forgot to check in.".

Yawning he laid back on the bed enjoying the softness of his blankets.

Octavia grinned lightly as she watched Gohan snuggle onto his bed "Wow Gohan you must be exhausted.".

"Well from what I was told I kinda partied to hard last night." Gohan said as Luna laid beside him.

"I was so worried about you." Luna said as she looked into his eyes.

Giving him a warm smile Gohan softly kissed her on the forehead "Well I'm back now, so let's just relax until you have to perform your duties.".

The sound of Celestia's voice interuppted their moment "Well aren't you two just the cutest sight.".

The two both sat up as the sun princess sat down on the other side of Gohan.

"Gohan has finally returned to us dear sister!" Luna said glad to have him back by her side.

Celestia laughed at how childish her sister was acting "Luna he was only gone for one night.".

Holding onto Gohan tighter Luna giggled to her sister "I know but I just wanted to hold him again.".

Vinyl made a barf face clearly uncomfortable with the level of emotion that was being displayed, before she was lightly hit in the arm by Octavia.

Giving a playful sigh Celestia poked her sister in her forehead "How about I take tonight's watch and you snuggle with your dearly beloved?".

"Really!" Luna almost screamed out before seeing the amused look on Celestia's face "I mean are you sure that you don't need any help sister?".

Celestia chuckled and gave her sister a devious smirk "Oh don't worry about me dear sister, only five more days till it's my turn with the boy wonder. That is when I get to have my fun.".

Gohan gulped as he felt the predator like intent in her voice. Not saying another word Celestia quickly turned and exited the room.

Vinyl Scratch smirked as she looked at the now sweating Gohan "Do you ever think that she's not the innocent little pony that we all think she is?".

"If you only knew." Thought Luna as she pulled Gohan back to lay on the bed.
