Hello Crossover Fans, I have finally written the next chapter of Equestria's Only Saiyan, but I am sorry for being so late on it.

I hope you will all forgive me, but I had to summarize the chapter and rewrite it.

Also I have received more messages questioning about this story short or long. Well I'm going to say again that I going to write each chapter of every season, so this will be quite a long story that is going to last for a long time.

Now with that out of the way, remember to leave a review please.

But for right now, please enjoy.

It was pretty much another normal day for me in the works of Ponyville, working hard in my training with Celestia at my side today, Twilight was with us, the others were doing their own thing while Applejack was at it with getting all the apples harvested.

I offered my services but she declined, saying she and Big Mac could the job themselves.

Secretly I wish she would stop acting so damn stubborn and just let me help her out with such hard work, but she is so stubborn about getting the job done herself; Applejack may be the Element of Honesty, but she is still a pony that has much to learn in friendship.

What am I saying, I still have much to learn.

"Okay Tia, is the barrier ready?" I asked as she finished laying out magic imprinted symbols into the ground, trapping me inside so I don't destroy anything while trying to do what I've barely been training for.

To reach super saiyan seven.

"It is ready my love, but be careful" she replied and got a safe distance from me with the purple mare pulling out a scroll and quill.

"So have you figured out how you are going to do it big brother?" Twilight asked curiously, head cocked and ears perked down as I transformed.

Luckily we were out in meadows so there should not be any problem of drawing attention, but I was still worried as to how I'm going to feel if I reached super saiyan seven. Super saiyan six is now nothing to me for I adjusted to the strain of power, but now I have worries of overpowering my body to the point it kills me.

Kind of like Kaioken for beginners, but much more dangerous.

I was now at super saiyan six, which is something Twilight has never seen in her young life; technically she has only seen me at super saiyan three, which is confusing until she told me that I was moving too fast for her to see me at super saiyan five when I fought Nightamare Moon.

"My transformations are caused by anger little sister, so I figured that if I have an outburst of rage I will push myself to the next level" I replied in my super saiyan four voice, which is a little deeper than Goku's and impossible to alter when I ascend.

Goku could do it, but I can't; then again I am not the same as him. In the journals that were left behind me there was info stating he was a fighter that did what he had to do in order to test himself, not to just protecting those he loves.

With that said I clenched my fists and turned to my first love and her student, both watching impatiently for results.

"Ready?" I questioned, receiving nods from the two.

"Okay" I whispered and turned away from them, followed by closing my eyes and focusing every ounce of energy with my anger.

I began to growl and flare my aura at the thought of every enemy that I have fought on earth; Xicor, Omega Shenron, Abbadon, Broly, etc. I was focusing in my mind the scene of those monsters finally beating me and taking over Equestria, killing all the innocence and destroying whatever they deemed was an annoyance.

This was just my imagination, but it felt so real when Celestia, Luna, and Cadance came to mind. I know it's dumb to take such things literally when I can go toe to toe with them, but just the thought of losing them made me angry.

Minutes went by with the ground shaking, wind blowing, and lightning bursting around me. I could feel, I could feel the barrier of my power beginning to warp as I howled longingly and flexed every muscle in my body.

I was so close to it, I was almost at super saiyan seven; just a little more.

"Come on baby!" Celestia yelled, which was a little helpful since she is my future wife.

However my desires would not be fulfilled today, not when the barrier was pushing back and making it a dangerous point to where I could kill myself.

"Dammit" I panted through it all and reverted to my normal state with a heavy heart and some hint of anger going though me.

I felt so useless and inadequate now while Celestia and Twilight approached with the same sadness I have, knowing I was going on for seven years into training and still have not reached the next level of super saiyan. Nothing felt more humiliating than knowing my fiancé just saw me fail and had to comfort me through the shame, if I was alone I would have beat the hell out of myself for it.

However I wasn't so all I could do was sit on my knees and punch the ground.

"Again!" I yelled angrily and repeated my punch to the ground, causing a hole to be formed in the shape of my fist while they tried to get this failure out of my mind.

"Shio its okay, you can try again tomorrow. Twilight and I know you can do it, you just have to find that spark in your heart" Celestia said to reassure me, but there was no way to reassure my confidence when I failed again.

I did not reply to the alicorn's words, I just stood back up and held my head low in deep shame with my fists clenched. I wanted to run away and let all my anger out in one big burst of energy, but the Princess of Day did not allow it for she knew my intentions from the bond we have with our souls.

Whatever I want or do, she knows from our connection.

So as her means of calming me down, she pushed her lips against mine and caressed the back of head with her hoof. Of course this was not fair since she and Cadance always calmed me down, but through my frustration I found love and enjoyment through the moaning mare while Twilight glared jealously.

Yeah after what Spike said, we kind of have not talked because he has a big mouth. Twilight was a little more distant but that is because she has a big crush on me and Celestia knows about it all too well. Right now they are still student and teacher, but when the sun goes down it becomes arguing with Twilight trying to convince the alicorn that she deserves to go on a date with me.

Sure she is beautiful and a grown mare, but should I accept would be a major problem with Rarity going crazy with jealousy. All six of them having feelings for me, but Rarity and Twilight have the strongest of feelings for me.

Well Luna does too and she surpasses them both.

"What am I going to do?" I whispered to myself, but there was no answer to come that would help me achieve super saiyan five.

Basically I was stronger but still not super saiyan seven; now I had nothing but harder work ahead of me.

"What would Cadance say to cheer me up?" I asked myself, only to have my mind drift from the annoyance of all this training and into memory of the hard times she and I went through after getting back together.

School was pretty much normal for me when the next couple of weeks happened with Cadance going on ahead of me during all of her time with her friends. We were dating once more but she was making like I didn't exist, much like the day Celestia and I were supposed to go on our first date but she forgot and so I was left alone until she found me.

I was alone in last hour again with the Princess of Love sitting separate so she could keep her popularity of dumping an all powerful god. Everybody knew she dumped me because of Soarin, but the reflection of popularity was that she dumped someone that is a one in a million chance.

She was already popular, but became the most popular after the breakup.

There she was, acting like she became president with everyone surrounding her to rub off on becoming cool like her. I was staring at her every few minutes to see if she was even noticing me sitting alone and reading the next few chapter of Ponybeth, the pony version of Macbeth.

I could hear them all laughing and chatting up with said mare, saying that I was a loser or a freak and she would agree with them.

The only time our eyes caught was when Shining Armor said she doesn't need to be around a hairless ape. Can't say I'm surprised she agreed with laughter, but the look on her face was what got me hurting on the inside. I could sense that her calm demeanor was full of anger over me, but she kept that same bright smile to ensure her popularity by agreeing.

I felt so angry at her for not defending me, for not letting them know that we are back together and they should stop saying things behind my back when I kill them in an instant.

I was having serious problems in my self-control over the anger that was raging through me. The Legendary Super Saiyan Power inside me was trying to get out so it could take control and destroy everything without a shed of regret over the innocence that would be eradicated.

I had it barely under control as Cadance eyed me like she was regretting every word they said, but that was only because I glared at her and slammed my book when Sunset Shimmer said something that I really did not want to hear.

"There's plenty of males out there Cadance; besides you don't need to be dating a guy that was abandoned by his parents because he is some super powered freak of nature. I mean I would run to if I found out that he is a bastard to a family he doesn't know"

That drew the line right there, that was straw that broke my weight of tolerance and she was about to find out, along with the rest of the class that was laughing hysterically.

Once those words rang into my ears, I realized Cadance used that as excuse for why she did dump me besides the lies Soarin spread. Cadance could see she was in deep shit for telling them about my life when she promised to not let anyone know that I was abandoned for a reason that I don't know of.

With that pain I used it as a helper to my self-control while standing up with everyone's attention on me now. I walked over angrily with the substitute teacher eyeing me in annoyance, fists clenched and my power level rising to its max before staging to super saiyan.

"Shio sit down now, class is no-"

"SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH OR I WILL KILL YOU RIGHT NOW!" I screamed at the top of my lungs with the instant change to super saiyan.

Everyone in the gasped when Mr. Clover went wide eyed and trembled at my sudden change, I couldn't blame him for being afraid since no one, but Cadance, has seen me transform out of hate anger.

All eyes were upon me now with the awkward moment of the ponies fearing me like I was their doom. In fact I am their doom and could make it so if I allowed my Legendary Super Saiyan side come out freely with no restraints, they all knew now that I was truly a being of ultimate power that could end them in an instant with just the flick of my finger.

I inhaled and exhaled deeply with a deep growl while turning to Cadance with intention of showing her just what she had done to piss me off. Sunset Shimmer was fearing me the most, but it only got worse when I approached with my aura flaring and that demonic intent inside making me feel dark.

"A bastard huh, well Sunset Shimmer this bastard saiyan can easily wipe you from existence; YOU HEAR THAT BITCH, I CAN KILL YOU WITHOUT TRYING AND WITHOUT REGRET SO SHUT YOUR MOUTH BEFORE I RIP YOUR COLTFRIENDS COCK OFF AND KILL YOU WITH IT BY SHOVING IT DOWN YOUR THROAT!"

Celestia's student was trembling now as I leaned down angrily to the rest of them, feeling no remorse for my actions while the Princess of Love was feeling that she made the biggest mistake in her life.

That mistake is angering a god.

"And as for the rest of you worthless fucks, if I hear anyone laugh about me one more time I swear I will hunt you down and kill your family and make you watch"

With that said, I turned away and walked out the classroom with only a minute of time left before school was over. I put all of my textbooks in my locker and stomped outside with the bell ringing to signal that the day was over and everyone could go home.

The entire school heard my yell and now stopped to get out of my way so that they did not end up in literal terms of my threats. I made it outside with a little bit of my anger gone while reverting to my normal form, I breathed deeply to calm down while Cadance was calling out to me.

She knew why I was acting like this and was now fearing that I was about to call off being together once more.

"Shio, Shio wait, baby please wait!" she called out desperately but was only responded with me flaring my normal aura before taking off towards the castle.

She screamed once more for me to stop, but the emotions going through me were so powerful that I was crying while in flight to some part of the castle that would keep a distance between her and I.

I wasn't sure if we were together now, but that was only because I felt she was not good in my life now. Basically she was seeing me at home but ignoring me at school and agreeing to her friends insults that were directed towards me.

After taking leave so suddenly, I found myself alone in the castle for Celestia was away on business. She left the entire place in the hooves of Blueblood and that was already a bad thought in my mind while going through the corridors to hide in my room for the week.

I was only a few feet from around the corner, so close and yet so far for I was bumped by a pony that surprisingly cared about me like I was her own.

Twilight Velvet.

Why she was in the castle in the first place was confusing. I wanted to ask but saw that Twilight was with her, which pretty much gave away some answer to her presence in my home.

"Shio I'm so sorry, I didn't...wait...honey what's wrong?" she asked, but I didn't answer.

With only tears pouring and hiccups being fought, I tried to go around her so that I could be alone. But of course I forgot that the unicorn is stubborn and she worried about me on a daily basis.

Why did she care though, she has her daughter and Cadance while I'm just the punching bag everyone.

"Cadance, that's what is wrong" I spat calmly.

"Oh no, did she breakup with you again?" the light purple mare asked.

I shook my head and finally decided that this was a useless matter to discuss.

"Ask her yourself" I finished, then left her in a mystery for I used instant transmission.

(End of Flashback)

A few days later

After getting over my self-pity and spending some time with Luna, I was now in Ponyville with her but at Sweet Apple Acres to pursue Applejack in giving her a hand in the work ahead of her. Luna was okay with spending the day like this since she is so far behind on society, not to mention her cultural views are very different from what culture is now.

She remembers servants doing such labor while royalty just watched; well times have changed so she is in for a big awakening.

"Come on AJ, just let me help" I inquired the orange pony, but she only shook her head while we walked through the fields with the Princess of Night holding my hand with her wing.

She was leaned up to me and relaxing from the stress of being outside in the daylight, plus the stress of being around common folk when it was set in stone that no one is to be around royalty for it was a risk of capture or being murdered.

But as I said, times have changed and I highly doubt that anyone would try to do anything to hurt us. Everyone in Ponyville saw me as a super saiyan, not super saiyan three for they were in too much of a panic when Nightmare Moon and I fought outside of Town Hall.

Which is fixed now but it cost me a bit of money; luckily my last few years as Canterlot's guard trainer paid quite a bit. I didn't really spend it since I have a royal expense of every month, so it just sat and grew with each weekly payment.

"Thanks sugarcube, but ah have to do this mahself; how about a date sometime?" Applejack replied questioningly, which caused Luna to glare at her and snort as we stopped at a certain spot where the trees were much more full of apples than normal.

I was annoyed again with her decline, almost to the point that I was going to yell at her and force my labor service onto her, but it would be unbecoming and I wanted to be a little proper in front of my third mate.

All I could do was sigh while rubbing my head of the headache, and watch her sway from tree to tree in nervousness.

"Well ah better get kick'n, these apples aren't gonna shake themselves out of the trees" the Element of Honesty said aloud, most likely speaking to herself at the moment as Luna and I readied to head back to Ponyville to see about a nice lunch.

We walked past the orange mare but were stopped by a large shake in the earth. I could sense that it was multiple figures coming in fast with deep fear, but that didn't last since AJ was hit on the head with an apple that shook out of the tree.

"HEY...oh no!" she said, then ran off towards Ponyville.

I already knew what was on its way to the town thanks to my sensory being a bloodline mixture of foresight on my eternal dragon side. It was a herd of cattle coming in fast with no intention of stopping, which meant the town was going to be demolished.

"What is this?" Luna asked curiously.

"A stampede, we gotta stop it!" I said in haste and dashed to the orange mare that was already a hundred yards away.

She was about to be out of her fields but I scooped her up and dashed back to the confused alicorn, followed by putting a hand on her neck after putting AJ down.

"Shio theres a-"

"I know Applejack, now both of you hang on" I interrupted while putting right index finger and middle finger to my forehead.

Next we teleported, with my instant transmission, to Ponyville with Rainbow Dash already up in the sky and looking into the distance. It did not take long for her to point out what was obvious to AJ and I while Luna was just watching out of curiosity.

"STAMPEDE!" the rainbow haired Pegasus yelled.

Once that was said, everyone took off like cockroaches to their respective homes and began whatever preparations could be done. They shut their windows, closed their doors, and even pulled took their door mats from outside.

Kind of surprising since Luna was with me. I figured she would have been rushed by ponies all morning for she is a princess that is dating me; well barely dating since we have not gone on our date yet, but she has been affectionate like Cadance and Celestia with all the nuzzling and requests for me to cuddle with her.

We have not kissed yet but I was not expecting to for a little while.

Anyway we were now in a panic with everyone, but Pinkie Pie, getting to safety.

No, the Element of Laughter was taking enjoyment to the vibration in the ground making her shake like a maraca while her voice was following it.

"Hey...this...makes...my...voice...sound...silly" she stated.

"Seriously?" I asked in annoyance of her, wanting to smack her over the head for not realizing that there is slight danger coming our way.

However I did not need to since Twilight took action while Mayor Mare was trying to be the leader she needs to be.

"Pinkie Pie are you crazy; RUN!" the purple unicorn stated.

"Everypony calm down, there is no need to panic" Mayor Mare said as calm as she could, but that wasn't really helpful since everyone was yelling; not to mention Rarity was pulling her drama act.

"But Mayor, whatever shall we do?" Rarity questioned with a hoof on her head, acting like she was in some sort of spotlight.

"Okay I've had enough of this; come on AJ!" I said with a serious tone and scooped up the mare once more.

"Luna stay here!" I ordered, then took off towards the rush of cattle with my orange friend on my back piggyback style.

"Giddy up Saiyan!" AJ yelled excitedly, hoof on my neck while the other was holding down her hat since we were flying at a high rate of speed.

Seconds now went by before we landed safely in the crowd of cows that were still startled about something. Whatever got them like this was a mystery we probably would never figure out, but that didn't matter right now; what mattered was getting these oversized cheeseburgers to stop.

Cheeseburger actually sounds good right now, but I haven't eaten any meat for over seven years so it is definitely out of the question.

"YEEHAW!" Applejack yelled after jumping off my back and getting beside the cows while I was at the other.

We were now herding them a little closer to one another in attempt to get them to turn before getting across the bridge. However it was not that easy with everyone of them in a panic and running like there was no tomorrow.

Luckily we had Winona with us to help herd them; how though is the question since she was not with us when we teleported to the town.

Oh well, I'm not complaining.

"You got it AJ!?" I yelled over the stampede, seeing that she finally got a rope around the leader of the herd.

"Ah got it honey; ya'll just get them to stop okay!" she grunted through the rope in her mouth while jerking it back to get the leader to turn.

I could hear everyone in town cheer as this all happened, but the time of feeling like a hero was not at all happening even though it felt good to be cheered for.

"Got it!" I yelled back, then flew ahead as she got them to turn from the bridge.

Once I got a bit of distance I landed and took in a big inhale of air as my dragon magic enhanced my speaking. To be exact it was expanding my esophagus and breaking down the air in my lungs to create a large portion that would gust through me as a loud foghorn.

After a couple seconds of it I finally let my voice be heard.

"STOOOP!"

Once that rang in their ears, they finally came to a grinding halt and calmed down for us. Applejack and Winona were alright so that was definitely a good thing, but to my surprise she spat out the rope in her mouth and did what I never expected.

"Hoowee; now what was that all about?" AJ asked the herd of cattle, confusing me while she approached the one that was the leader of the herd.

"Oh my, beg your pardon Applejack but Mooiella saw one of them snakes" the leader replied, followed by the other cows gasping out of a startle.

I was completely mind blown at this moment, eyes wide and jaw hanging as the two talked civilly about the stampeding needing to come to a halt.

"And it just gave us all the willies, don't you know?" the cow questioned.

Of course I wanted to say she needed to stand up to such a thing, I mean a snake cannot even hurt her hide if it tried to bite; geez my life does not get any easier with all these miniscule problems.

Unfortunately for me, my time of talking never came since Applejack spoke for the both of us.

"Shio and ah completely understand; just next time try and steer clear of Ponyville" she replied as the cows made their way back to the fields, acting completely calm now to where we didn't have to worry about leading them back.

"We certainly will Applejack, and so long Winona, and toodles ya handsome fellar"

With that said and done, I returned to the worried alicorn that was already in a mad rush to see if I was alright at the moment. I did not get maybe two steps across the bridge before she surveyed my body to see if there was a single scratch or bruise on me.

"Is our beloved hurt, does anything hurt, do we need to massage where our mate hurts!?" she asked in a blurt, showing her complete panic over me while AJ was returning to the barn to finish up her work for the day.

Of course I just chuckled and wrapped my arm around the Lunar Princess, comforting her of the worry she did not need going through her since I am not a normal creature.

Maybe she forgot I am a saiyan god.

"Luna I am okay, you forget that I am an all-powerful saiyan god" I reminded her while rubbing the back of her neck, soothing the whimpers while her face was buried in my chest.

It was understandable for Luna to be this upset, being banished for a millennia will traumatize a mare so to see who you care most be in danger will bring out the worst of their emotions.

She was like a child still but in an adult body.

"We were just worried about you, please do not scare us again" she sobbed.

"I won't Luna, I promise" I crooned into her folded ear.

ONE WEEK LATER

Time now passed by for me and Luna with our stay being in Ponyville for the big thank you party that everyone wanted to give. Celestia and Cadance were doing paperwork that needed their immediate attention so we decided to spend the whole in Ponyville at Twilight's house, which was not bad at all since Luna came out of isolation a little bit just four days ago.

I was asleep but found myself awoken by the blue mare asking to sleep with me because she could not stand being alone. Luna was scared to sleep alone so I allowed her to stay with me during the night. Nothing happened, except for lots of cuddling and her nuzzling my neck before passing out in my arms.

Anyway we were with Twilight now and approaching Rarity to see how her bow tying was going, which was not bad at all. But then again she is the fashionista of Ponyville and a real neat freak with everything.

"We all ready?" Twilight asked.

"Just one more thing" Rarity replied, then did the final touch on the newly built town hall.

She placed a large banner on it with an apple in the middle, but within the large parchment was me and AJ looking determined while a large apple sat in the background.

I felt a little embarrassed about this, but that was only because no one has ever thanked me in such a way.

"You all don't have to do this with me in it, I would prefer if you just thanked Applejack" I chuckled nervously while scratching the back of neck, showing just how uncomfortable I was with having a party in mine and Applejack's honor.

Of course the girls argued and won, but that's only because I don't like to argue.

"Nonsense, my future husband, this is meant for you and Applejack so we will not let you exclude yourself" Rarity clarified and made me blush a deep shade of red while Princess of Night was giving a wide-eyed glare and swaying her tail angrily.

I had my life set up with trouble, only because ponies are hell bent on finding a mate but alicorns are crazy protective of their mate. Rarity does not see it, but I do, I was already seen as Luna's mate and she was determined to keep it that way.

To my luck though, Twilight spoke up about our orange friend, which broke the tension I was sensing between the two but now the blue alicorn had her wing tightly holding me and her head in my chest.

Yup, today was going to be one of those days.

"Is Applejack all set?" the purple unicorn asked, only to have her hopes brought down a little by our blue friend that probably never stopped flying.

"Actually I haven't seen her all week" Rainbow Dash answered, then landed on her hooves and was now standing like a normal pony.

That's a first to me.

"Not since the stampede" Pinkie Pie added.

"But she'll be here for sure, Applejack is never late" Rainbow Dash finished, but if we have not seen her for a full week then something was not right if she's been like a ghost for that many days.

Couldn't say I agree with the mare so I just I just kept it my hat, metaphorically speaking.

Well now was the time of our big thank you party with everyone gathered. I was standing with Luna at my side but no one was paying attention to her, they were mainly paying attention to me because AJ had not shown up yet for the big gathering.

It's been hours since the party was made and she still had not shown up yet to receive her award like I have, well unwillingly somewhat since Twilight and the others were urging me to be a little more social and accepting of what comes to me.

Easy for them to say, they didn't live in fear until you turned sixteen and wound up in another world.

It doesn't matter though, all I could do was stand with my Princess of the Night holding me tightly and leaning her head against my chest while Twilight was doing her whole speech thing in front of the town.

It would have been much better if she did not make a speech that is the size of a small text book.

"Welcome everypony, today we are here to honor a pony and a prince that we can always on count on to help in matters great or small"

"Oh boy" I groaned on the stage, knowing this was going to be the longest speech in all of Equestria with our purple friend now getting to the second flash card.

"A pony who's contributions to-"

"Did you see Applejack's slick moves out there, and Shio's cool yell at the cows; what a couple of athletes. This week their going to help me out with my flying trick and I know it's going to be...so...awesome" Rainbow Dash interrupted quite rudely, but at the same time it was good that she did since speeches and standing in front of crowds are not my forte.

I was hoping that would make Twilight give up, but she pressed on by butting her head against the jittery Pegasus stomach.

"Exactly and-"

Now Pinkie Pie.

"This week I get to run Sugarcube Corner for the first time" the pink mare added, but to be honest I was confused as much as Luna and Twilight.

We were all giving her the same look with our brows cocked at the moment; just what did Sugarcube Corner have to do with Applejack and I doing what we did.

"What has that got to do with Applejack and Shio?" Twilight asked.

Pinkie only had a deer in the headlights look for a few moments, blinking her eyes a couple times before the hamster in her head got the wheel going once more. Thank Shenron it did because that pony could remain silent for eternity if she wanted, and that is something to worry about.

"Oh Applejack, one of the best bakers, and Shio, our best superhero, is going to help me" she finished, which reminded me of the promise I made with the orange mare to give a little help since Mr. and Mrs. Cake are going to be gone on business.

"I thought we were going to spend time together?" Luna asked in a pouty fashion, acting like a child with her bottom lip out and crocodile tears forming as I held her wing.

"We are, but I gotta help them out okay, I made a bunch promises to help everyone out because I don't think AJ can keep up with all of it and bucking all the trees" I replied in a whisper, letting her know that my intentions were to keep an eye on the farm mare that already has too much on her plate.

With that being said, we just returned to listening to Pinkie Pie give out an offer.

"Applejack and Shio make everything great, so free sample for samples for everypony!"

Now the crowd was cheering at me thanks to the pink menace. Well I can't really complain since we did get everyone's hopes up with the promises, and who is at fault for that.

Me.

Unfortunately for, there was still the long boredom to come since Twilight was still at it with her antics in giving a speech about AJ and I while Luna was growing impatient. She was starting to tap her hoof and lean against me in annoyance of having to stand in one place for such a long time.

"Yeah, that's great" the purple mare muttered, caring not for the pink mare's word while knocking her off the podium with a sway of her flank.

Now she was levitating her flash cards again and straightening them out of frustration, speaking aloud while my favorite pony did her cute antics.

"Now if I could just make a point without being-"

"Twilight" the Element of Kindness said with her quiet voice, poking her as well for added necessity to get her attention.

"Interrupted!" Twilight finished, but in doing so led to the yellow Pegasus scooting onto the podium.

I won't lie, I like Fluttershy because she reminds me of myself when I was a kid. I was shy and timid because of my powers, afraid to be assertive and social until danger came my way with the intention of destroying the earth.

Plus she's a gorgeous pony like Rarity and Twilight.

"Sup Fluttershy?" I greeted, giving her the peace sign.

She returned it with a gentle smile before giving her statement with the purple mare standing there in some aggravation.

"I'm so sorry, but I just wanted to mention that Applejack and Shio are helping me this weekend with the Official Bunny Census, where we count up all the baby bunnies that were born this season. She's going to gather them with her wonderful herding skills, and Shio is going to keep them calm with his gentle nature"

"Me...gentle?" I questioned, receiving a nod from Fluttershy before she looked back in fear of our purple friend glaring at her.

Of course Fluttershy left the podium in a quiet manner, but now she was coming to me for some attention because she does not like being glared at by others when there is no reason to have such a thing.

Luna didn't seem to mind since I just picked the Pegasus up and gave her a piggyback ride. She was basically using me as a wall to shield herself from the eyes of everyone in front of us, but also to use me as a pillow.

I knew that for she nuzzled the back of my neck before resting peacefully as Twilight groaned at the crowd.

"Anyone else, anyone?" she asked, staring at the crowd that was batting their gazes to wherever they could to avoid the awkwardness.

"No, well then as I was trying to say-"

"Uh oh" I said to myself, knowing where this was going when Mayor Mare stood up onto the stage and smiled cheekily at the mare.

Thus creating the breaking point of Twilight's tolerance, which saved us from a long speech that was definitely unnecessary.

"Ugh! Never mind" Twilight groaned, tossing her flash cards into the air before walking away with much annoyance to her friends and the mayor.

She only walked towards me and took a seat on the hardwood, then wrapped her hooves around my leg and nuzzled it like she use it when Cadance and I babysat her. I just chuckled in amusement and removed my hand from Fluttershy, rubbing Twilight's head now for she was glaring at the crowd and groaning.

"Better luck next time champ; besides, you have a better chance giving a speech in Canterlot" I reminded her.

"That's no kidding" she replied before the Mayor cleared her throat, but under that cheeky smile I could sense a hint of arrogance in her.

She felt that only speeches should be given to her, which is wrong to think but I have a feeling she would realize how equal she is to everyone very soon.

"And so with no further ado, it is my privilege to give the Prized Pony of Ponyville award to our beloved guests of honor, two very special ponies of the utmost trustworthiness, reliability, and integrity; Ponyville's most capable and dependable friends, Prince Shio and Applejack"

And so the blinds opened, revealing me and the three other mares that were around me for attention. The crowd cheered immediately after I set Fluttershy down and gave a small wave, but that all stopped when we realized Applejack was still not around to receive her trophy.

Spike continued for a moment, but realized how much he was embarrassing himself while we stared without end in confusion of the farm pony that was supposed to be at my side or have arrived just now.

However she was not here and Mayor Mare was now stuck with giving an explanation as to Applejack's whereabouts.

"Awkward" Spike said aloud, receiving all stares for maybe two seconds until the mare we worried about was making her way through the crowd with a basket of apples on her back.

"Ah'm here, ah'm here, sorry ah'm late; phew, sorry; did ah step on yer tail?" AJ replied, but it was more of a mumble as we stared at her with not a clue as to what has happened to her.

We all stood there dumbfound, even Luna was confused as to why our friend was looking so rough when she's usually chipper.

"Applejack, you look like shit" I pointed out, receiving a glare from her.

"Yeah well ya don't look like the best bag of apples yerself" she retorted, then made her way to the podium without even asking for Mayor Mare to move.

But then again, Mayor Mare was just as shocked as us.

Applejack was filthy and she looked tired, her eyes had massive bags under them and she smelled quite bad.

"Thank ya kindly fer this here trophy thingy...it's so bright and shiny...and...he...hehe...ah sure do look funny" she replied, which wasn't much since her attention span was literally on her reflection in the golden trophy.

She was making faces and noises to her own reflection, and all I could do was stare at her with my jaw dropped and a cocked brow while Pinkie Pie was encouraging her. She was joining Applejack in making faces in the trophy reflection, but that doesn't surprise me since the pink mare is more random than drawing names out of a hat.

After a few moments of her goofiness, I approached with Twilight, hoping maybe some sort of response would snap her out of this strange trance she was in.

"Okay...well thank you, Applejack and Shio, for saving us from that scary stampede and always being there for everypony" Twilight added with her best smile, but that was not much since this was a seriously awkward moment with the farm mare acting so...weird.

With nothing left to do, I leaned down to the purple unicorn and put my two sense in.

"I think the lights are on, but nobodies home" I whispered, receiving a punch to my leg by Twilight.

"Shio, be nice" she whispered in return as AJ yawned.

"Uh yeah, ah like help'n the pony folks and...and stuff" AJ replied, but that was all she said before passing out on her own hooves, snoring loudly in front of the crowd.

Now I was stupefied and worried for her, knowing just what was causing her to be this way.

I didn't know what else to do except snap my fingers to awaken the exhausted mare, but her response was not expected since she is always talking.

She woke up, but shook her head of the sleep.

"Uh...yeah, thanks" she finished and took off with the trophy, dragging it across the ground with everyone staring at her.

"Shio, was it just me or did Applejack look a little-"

"Tired?" Rainbow Dash and I said in unison.

"Dizzy?" Fluttershy added.

"Messy?" Rarity said, which caused us to stare at her in confusion since messiness is the last thing on our minds about her.

Of course the fashionista added her own two sense, but did it while approaching me and putting her head against my waist.

"Well, did you see her mane. She looked absolutely filthy and I just worried it was going to get on my future husband"

"Future husband!?" Luna yelled as the crowd dispersed, but that was all she said before Pinkie Pie bounced over to us.

"She seemed fine to me, WHOO, WHOO!" Pinkie stated, but Twilight and I were not listening to her since we had our own little conversation while Luna and Rarity were getting aggressive with one another.

"He's my mate!"

"Well I want him, and there's nothing you can do...Nightmare Moon!"

"I'm gonna follow her, just to make sure she's okay" I whispered to Twilight.

"I'm going with you" she whispered back and followed me to Sweet Apple Acres.

With that said and done, I got Luna and walked with only the care of our friend being alright when she looks completely exhausted. Luna was not happy that I interrupted her little feud with Rarity, but Applejack's health was much more important and I did not want them fighting because it will be like when Cadance was here during the Gala Ticket conundrum.

After a little bit of walking, we ended back up at Sweet Apple Acres with much worry over the mare that has been doing her apple bucking since Big Mac was injured. It didn't take us long to find the mare since her apple bucking was leaving a trail of apples that she forgot to put in the baskets, but that is only because she forgot to pick them up from her exhaustion.

AJ wasn't exactly right in the head.

We watched her miss the tree, then knock over a basket of apples on accident.

"What on earth is that pony doing?" Twilight asked, but it was more of asking herself instead of asking Luna and I.

"Missing the tree, that's what she is doing" I answered sarcastically, only to get elbowed by both mares but Luna's actually hurt because her little fiasco as Nightmare Moon made quite a few changes to her body.

One of the reasons she is with me is because our little usage with the Elements of Harmony caused a powerful reaction to us. Luna's soul was somehow bonded to line, like Celestia and Cadance being bonded to me, but the elements somehow spiked their power levels. The energy that remained, when Nightmare Moon took it, somehow spilt to all three and gave them much higher KI Affinity. They are still at their normal power levels, but they now had the ability to match their power levels to mine with enough exchange of KI and magic.

"Oops" was all we heard when AJ kicked her basket over before we approached.

"Hey Applejack, Applejack!" Twilight called out, but it was useless for the farm mare fell asleep while standing again.

She was that tired from bucking apples all the time without Big Mac's help. I could sense just how much her KI Affinity was and right now it was very little with the addition of her power level being only 400 at the moment.

However it was slowly decreasing and she was going to pass out sooner or later with me having to transfer some of KI to make sure she does go unconscious.

"This is bad, I can sense her energy getting weaker. It's only a matter of time before she passes out" I pointed out.

"Indeed, any longer and thou will need see a doctor" Luna added, but amongst our words was a hint of frustration in all three of us as the mare took herself a little nap.

Finally we made our way to her, but did it so with me using instant transmission to face her now. Of course Twilight said her name a third time, but this one got AJ's attention.

"Applejack!" she yelled, snapping our orange friend from her slumber but it was a response of shaking her head wildly from being startled.

She did that for a few seconds, but stopped and saw all three of us.

"H-howdy Twilight, Princes Luna, and Shio"

"AJ what are you doing?" I asked.

"It's Applebuck Season" she replied but did it rudely for she was walking away while speaking.

Now Twilight was teleporting us around to try and talk some sense in to the stubborn mare, but that's easier said than done since the earth pony is more stubborn than me.

"Apple what season?" Twilight questioned, only to have another rude notion of Applejack walking away as she answered.

"It's what the apple family calls harvesting time, we gather all the apples from the trees so we can sell'em"

"Sounds like a great deal of work" I said out of the blue, arms crossed and my brow cocked while Luna was leaning against me for much needed attention.

Of course I responded with rubbing the back of her neck, but the blue mare was not satisfied with just having a neck rub. So I kneeled down and rubbed her head with one hand while the other scratched her back, which became a loving counter of her licking my cheek each time I repeated the motion she loved.

Yup, I was getting licked by the Princess of Night while Twilight and AJ spoke.

"Why are you doing it all alone when we can help, especially Shio because he can move really fast" Twilight pointed out.

"Big Mac hurt himself" AJ quipped, only to have the purple mare teleport in front of her again.

"What about all those relatives when Shio and I first came to Ponyville, can't they help?" Twilight reminded her, or in this case pointed out while it reminded me.

Unfortunately for us, the answer was not the one we wanted.

"They were just here for the Apple Family Reunion, they actually live all over Equestria, and are busy harvesting their own orchards"

"That sucks" I said, but neither of them heard me.

Applejack was acting much stranger now, she even asked Twilight to step aside when she already did. Now I was scared for the pony that could barely stay awake, let alone stand and keep kicking trees that she keeps missing.

But knowing me, I was with Twilight in stepping in and doing what is right.

"Do you need some help?" she asked.

"Yeah, I could give you a hand and have this done in a couple of hours; can't fly at full speed or I'll cause enough wind force that will rip the trees out of the ground" I offered and pointed out, but that didn't help at all since I could see some hint of pride form in the mare.

"Help, no way, no how" AJ shook her head.

"But there's no way you can do it all on your own" Twilight added, which did not go so well with the farm mare that has more pride than a saiyan.

I wouldn't know though, I only know that saiyans are said to be very proud because the journals said so. But right now I'm pretty sure AJ was showing more pride than even I could muster.

"Is that a challenge?" she asked the purple mare, eye bugged out like she was staring into the pony's soul.

Luckily Twilight backed out of it, otherwise I probably would have had to step in, but that didn't mean I had to back down.

"Um...no" she answered.

"I'm challenging you, I believe you won't be able to do it just because this is a massive farm you run" I said with a smug grin, knowing I just opened a big can of worms between her and I.

Twilight glared at me now, and so did Applejack while Luna just remained quiet and continued with the affection.

"Well then Shio, Ah'm gonna prove to you that I can do it; now if you'll excuse me, ah got apples to buck" she finished with her head high, pride probably hurt from my words but maybe a little hit to her arrogance is needed since this is a massive job that cannot be done alone.

Twilight cringed at the mare for a moment, then looked back at me with some anger.

"Did you have to antagonize her?" she asked frustratingly, receiving my own nod of sarcasm.

"Hey, you know I'm challenging her so she'll break and come to us for help; if she won't listen, then she needs to learn" I replied.

With that being said, I just stood there in my own glory with the two mares staring at me. I could have stood there in amusement for who knows how long, but it ended when I felt Twilight's hoof hit me in a spot that is any man's weak spot.

"Yes...I know" she said while removing her hoof, allowing me to clench the area while falling on the ground with a surge of agony in my entire body now.

"OW BITCH, WHAT THE HELL!?" I screamed while holding my sack and having the Princess of Night stand there in shock of the purple mare that was walking away in annoyance.

"You deserved it" Twilight quipped.

Time Skip/ Now with Rainbow Dash

After getting my pain to go away, Luna and spent a few hours alone to get some details about ourselves out of the way. We basically learned about one another and shared a good lunch before going to Rainbow Dash so I could help her out with her new trick

Luna was okay with it, but I think she preferred us spending the day alone.

"Thou is very kind to help so many" Luna pointed out, which in turn caused me to scratch my neck embarrassingly and chuckle as we came upon the Element of Loyalty laying on some sort of catapult.

Applejack was on top of some stand but wobbling around enough that it made me scared for her health. One wrong move and she would plummet to the ground with possible broken bones or even death.

"Wonder what their-"

"WAIT, WAIT, WAIT!" Rainbow Dash screamed.

With that being said, I felt something in my mind click and reacted to stopping before the exhausted mare launched our friend to the other side of the world.

I sprinted and got my hand on the Pegasus tail, but it was too late for I grabbed it at the last second and was launched with her to who knows where.

"APPLEJAAACK!"

"I'M TOO OLD FOR THIS SHIIIT!"

Yup, I was going far.

Eventually we stopped flying through Equestria and crash landed into Twilight's home, but Rainbow Dash was lucky for she only hit the railing while I barged through the damn tree and crash into one of the shelves.

Luckily Luna was here because she loved doing a little reading when bored, so that killed the time of finding her and spending a little more time with her. However there was still the matter of getting Applejack to throw away her pride and let us help her out.

But that was easier said than done on the account that Twilight the last few days trying to convince her. We tried and tried but it just got worse and worse with Applejack's help going throughout Ponyville, and mean it got much worse for many of the townsfolk were sick from eating the baked goods she helped Pinkie Pie make.

All I remember, before helping them get better with my eternal dragon magic, is Pinkie said 'baked bads'.

Then came rounding up the bunnies but that ended in failure with Applejack getting aggressive with the animals, not thinking how it should have been done when I already had it under control without her help or Winona's.

Unfortunately for me, I was stuck with comforting an upset Pegasus while Luna went back to Canterlot for it was Celestia's turn to spend some time with me. We had a great time together, but once the letter came in Luna was not at all happy that she had to go to the castle to keep things in control while Tia spent her time with me.

I was alone with Fluttershy and the crazed up town, but Twilight came in and saw the trouble the bunnies were causing by eating every flower in Ponyville after having themselves a nice little scare from the farm mare.

"Shio, what...Shio?" Twilight questioned me, knowing I was not in a good mood for AJ's stupid antics finally sent me over the boiling point.

I was standing with both fists clenched and my aura raging, I was finally angry from all the trouble and decided to take action against all this bullshit before anything else happened.

With no warning, I wrapped my arm around her stomach and shot into the air with my lungs shrinking from the amount of oxygen I was releasing in a howl.

"WHOA...SHIO SLOW DOWN!"

I howled for quite a few seconds as the wind force behind me caused a gust that ripped up a few apple trees, but I did not care for the farm mare was in my sights and I was ready to give her the biggest ass chewing in her young life.

"APPLEJACK!" I screamed, then came to a grinding halt where my feet dragged through the ground, causing a crater trail that ended with me in front of the mare and a scared unicorn trembling in arm while her mane was slick back.

AJ only yawned as I glared at her and Twilight got herself back under control, which followed to getting in the way because she knew I was not going to be nice about all of this bullshit.

"Shio, let me talk" she urged.

Of course I did not argue with her, I usually don't since she is the once that speaks and reaches to some agreement with others while I act as the brawn behind her. Kind of like being an intimidating bodyguard, but with super powers and untold magic that is probably more dangerous than we know.

"Fine" I groaned.

Next was the useless manner of her trying to politely convince the mare.

"Alright Applejack, you're apple bucking hasn't just caused you problems. It's over-propelled Pegasus and one saiyan, practically poisoned plenty of ponies, and terrorized bushels of bouncing new baby bunnies, I don't care what you say, you need help"

"And that's the truth with some cheese on it!" I added, receiving a cocked brow from the unicorn while AJ continued bucking her apple tree.

Eventually she got it, which is annoying somehow, but now the fun part came in when Big Macintosh showed up to see how much progress she had.

"Ha, no I don't. Look, ah did it, ah harvested the entire Sweet Apple Acres without yer help" she boasted for the moment, but that was about to change when I stood by the red stallion and saw the other half of the field.

"How did ya like them apples!?"

Of course I had to say something, but in some sort of southern tone to emphasize the sarcasm I had in me.

"Um...how you like them apples?" Big Mac and I asked while pointing at the other half of the fields that were filled with apples.

AJ saw what we saw, but that was the ticket to triggering her mental breakdown in front of us. Finally she realized just how impossible it was to do such a job without help, which was a great relief on my shoulders when Twilight and I lectured her.

"AJ we respect your ways, but doing all this on your own is impossible without help. You need to stop letting your pride get the best of you or the help you do need in the future is not going to come when you break down. I'm a prince but I still need help from Tia all the time because there is so much I have to do while keeping an eye on all of you and bonding with my three mates; trust me when I say your plate can get full and sometimes you need help finishing what's on it" I reminded her, using myself as an example that would hopefully help the mare that was hurting from the punch in her pride.

I felt bad that she was on the verge of tears because of her pride being shattered, so I decided to kneel down and rub her head to give some comfort while Twilight said her peace.

"Yes Applejack, Shio and I completely respect your family ways, you're always there to help ponies in need. So maybe you could put aside a little bit of your stubborn pride and allow your friends to help you"

"Okay you two" she answered.

"And we're not taking no for a-WAIT, WHAT!?" Twilight spoke, but I had just as much shock as her while the mare got up and did something we did not expect.

She requested our help.

"Yes you two, yes please, ah could really use the help. But fer right now ah'd like ta get some rest; Shio ah'm exhausted, would ya-"

"Say no more AJ" I quipped, interrupting her but for good reason of letting her know that I knew exactly what she wanted.

With that being said, I kneeled down a little more and felt my neck be hugged by the mare before I put my hands behind me and stood up. Applejack was now getting a piggyback ride to her house so she could finally get some rest, but the second she hugged me was the moment I heard her snores touch the back of my neck.

"Twilight, let's get her home" I said, then made my way to the house.

After a couple of days of rest, Applejack found herself being woken by the others while I was out in the fields picking apples with my bare hands. I flew at a much faster pace but kept it low enough to where it did not hurt the trees. Eventually they stopped talking and gave me a hand with a couple of trees that I missed, but that was all they got for I rounded up the rest of the apples in about four hours.

I won't hide what I felt though, I did feel that there was some sort of bond with us all now and it was getting stronger as I flew down with the six mares cheering for me since I lifted a truck-sized bucket of apples and placed it behind the barn. But something felt different when my eyes stopped on those six blushing mares that have feelings for me, not sure what this feeling was while landing and getting gestured a drink after a good day of work.

Maybe I will never know what these feelings are, but I did realize something that has been with me since the day I met all of them.

These were not just my friends, they were family...my family.

Now much to say on a friendship report since Twilight wrote it out while I was working on the farm, but here is my own lesson.

Dear Tia

Today I learned from Applejack's mistake that trying to go super saiyan seven was something out of my own arrogance. I lost in another attempt in trying to reach that power because I let my pride get in the way when I should be trying for myself, not for my ego. I realized that being a god is something great but something not to be taken granted for, like trying to achieve a new state of power to satisfy my ego.

Also, do you remember that night when I was upset because I have no family. Well I was wrong and discovered that family is not of bloodline; nope, it consists of those close to your heart.

You, Luna, and Cadance are my mates so you don't count as family. Well at least not until we get married and make our own family.

Anyway, I found out just who is my family. It's Twilight and our fellow element wielders because these last three weeks in Ponyville have opened my eyes to a new world of what is truly there when you can't see it

I know, weird of me to say but I thought you should know.

Can't wait to see you a few hours.

Love Shio.

"How about ya'll take a little break. Ah got some fine apple juice wait'n for ya'll" Applejack offered, rolling a cart up that had bottles of apple juice.

We did not argue with her this time, I especially didn't since my throat was quite parched and I was taking my shirt off to air out from the heat of the day. With all the apples now picked, we had a share of apple juice and just socialized like friends do.

But you know, I just thought of something; how is it that I am the only male in this group?

"Girls ah can't thank you enough for this help, especially you, Shio. Ah was acting a bit stubborn" AJ partially admitted, receiving my all too soon smug grin after i put my drink down and crossed my arms.

"A bit?" Twilight and I chuckled.

"Okay, a might stubborn...and ah'm awful sorry. Now ah know the town gave me the prized pony award, but the real award is having you six as mah friends, especially you, Shio, because you came to me offering help before Twilight found out that ah needed help. The biggest apology ah owe is to you for being such a bag of sour apples, but ah couldn't come to grasp having a super powered pony helping me so easily"

Okay I felt a little warm on the inside for that, but at the same time I felt pity for the mare because I understood what she meant. Having someone with super powers come help out is a big kick in someone's family pride.

"Don't sweat it AJ; just remember, and this goes for everyone here, that I'm here to help whenever you need. Sure I am saiyan god, but I'm no different from being a citizen in Ponyville and a friend to you all, nothing makes me happier than making sure you all are happy"

"Going soft there, aren't ya cutie?" Rainbow Dash teased, but also flirted.

"Hey I can be a sensitive guy when needed" I laughed.

"Yeah, well all that apple bucking sure made me hungry" she added as our smallest friend joined the group, but not in a way that we expected.

"And I've got just the perfect treat" Spike stated and held up what we thought were in the garbage after the big fiasco, but it seems some remained and he was being serious.

"Eew, Spike I threw those away; where did you get them?" Pinkie Pie asked, only to have her received answer gross us all out.

"From the trash"

"EEW" the girls said in unison.

"Dude that is disgusting, they taste like hammered shit!" I added in the moment, then decided this day was ruined with the little dragon continuing to try and make us eat those damn things.

"Just a little nibble"

"NO!" we yelled.

"Come on" he urged.

"Shio get us away from those!" Rarity requested.

"Don't gotta tell me twice" I replied.

With Spike grossing us out a little too much, I grabbed Twilight, Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Rarity before taking off in the sky with our dragon friend following, I had to admit that he was quite determined, but this was just too much and he was killing my appetite for some dinner back at the library.

"Come on you guys!" he yelled, only to have me fly a little faster.

CHAPTER END
