Gohan's Second Chance
Chapter 90: Battle Between a God and a Mortal Pt. 8
Previous Chapter Next ChapterGoten was groaning in the corner...
He sat down, rubbing his stomach.
He ate a little too much...
But there's still a lot of food.
The Crusaders were all poking him, trying to get him to move.
"Come on! Wake up!" Applebloom said, poking Goten in the face.
"Come on!" Scootaloo said, poking him in the chest.
"Do math!"
"Stop... It hurts..." Goten said.
So they left him alone.
Pinkie was just gobbling sweets down, definitely getting the diagnosis for diabetes later.
Does she even have a doctor?
Cadence was trying to spoon feed Flurry Heart while Shining Armor held the baby.
Twilight and Spike were chatting about her accomplishment.
"So that's why you killed the plant?" Spike asked.
"I brought it back to life after you went to sleep." Twilight said.
"Here I was, thinking you finally went insane." Spike said.
"I wanted it to be a surprise for everyone..." Twilight said.
"Well, it wasn't a surprise for everyone, now." Discord said, right behind Twilight.
So Twilight kinda screamed in surprise.
Discord started laughing.
"How'd you get scared by that!?" He asked.
"I didn't expect it!" Twilight said.
"What do you mean it wasn't a surprise for everyone?" Spike asked.
"I saw it coming from a mile away. Probably because I read your mind as you announced it." Discord said.
"You can do that?" Twilight and Spike asked.
"Well, what do you expect from me? I'm a god of chaos, I can bend reality!" Discord said, literally bending reality in half...
Everyone started screaming since their bodies were only visible on the bottom of their hooves and somehow that was connected to their heads.
Discord had his laugh and reversed it.
"That isn't funny!" Twilight said.
"Wait... Then how come you let Gohan beat you?" Spike asked.
"Oh, I'm not sure of everything, now. Anything that's clearly much stronger than my physical form is either barely affected by my magic or isn't affected at all." Discord said.
"Did Goku and Gohan feel those changes?" Twilight asked.
"Not likely. Goten only had half of the effects, if you didn't notice. Oh, and he didn't even notice. Hah! And we know how much stronger the older ones are." Discord said.
"Uh... No we don't." Twilight said.
"Oh. Monumental." Discord said.
The six who previously disappeared reappeared.
"Well, now I have something to scale him to." Gohan said.
"You're back!" Twilight said.
"After giving the other side of the planet a huge earthquake." Discord said.
Goku scratched his cheek and had an awkward smile.
"Yeah, I tried going all out..." He said.
Celestia and Luna whispered.
"I suppose Son Gohan knows Lord Beerus' resolve..." Luna said.
"But what does he think about it...? Is he arrogant?" Celestia asked.
"I don't believe so... He doesn't like fights, so I suppose he's safe." Luna said.
"You two." Beerus said, snapping them back to reality.
"I think we're about done here..." He said.
The sisters sighed in relief...
"I deem this planet to be okay. It will survive... For now." Beerus said.
"Oh, good. I was planning on going to limbo for a million years again." Discord said, wearing a suit and tie while holding a suitcase.
"I remember when Master Roshi went to limbo." Goku said.
"He did?" Gohan asked.
"Oh, yeah. When Demon King Piccolo survived the Evil Containment Wave, it put too much strain on the old man's body and he died." Goku said.
"But since it was the Demon King, he never actually died." Discord said.
"I-I'm... Surprised you knew that." Goku said.
"I'm surprised that you haven't been destroyed by now." Discord said.
"Huh?" Goku asked.
"I'm done here. Whis, let's go." Beerus said.
"My lord, you haven't tasted the desserts of this place yet..." Whis said with a smirk.
"Desserts? Hmm..." Beerus said.
'WHY!?' Luna and Celestia thought.
"Maybe I'll stay for a few sweets..." Beerus said, looking over to the table of food.
Pinkie was, well, still devouring sweets...
The dessert trays were nearly empty.
She was basically eating pudding right about now.
So Beerus wasn't exactly excited.
"There's nothing left!" He yelled.
"There's some delectable pudding left. It's very tasty." Whis said.
"Explain." Beerus said.
"It's a creamy confection. It looks like sludge but it tastes like heaven." Whis said.
Beerus' mouth watered at that.
"Then I'll just have that." Beerus said.
"It's right over there." Whis said.
Beerus and Whis walked over to Pinkie.
Or, the tray, more specifically.
"Hmm... I could've sworn there were about twelve cups here a minute ago." Whis said.
"Well, there's only one more. It's all for me!" Beerus said, about to grab it.
...
Then it disappeared before he grabbed it.
"MINE!" Pinkie said.
Beerus was first surprised, then angry.
He turned to Pinkie, who was holding the pudding cup.
"What the...!?" He asked.
Celestia and Luna mentally screamed.
"I grabbed it first, so it's mine!" Pinkie said.
"What!?" Beerus asked.
"I'm sure you've eaten more than enough... Can you spare one for Lord Beerus?" Whis asked.
Pinkie stuck her tongue out.
"What!?" Beerus asked, more pissed.
"You're being a rude guest!" He yelled.
Let's cut back to the Saiyans...
Gohan and Goku were sitting beside Goten.
His tummy ache was leaving...
"Did you win?" Goten asked.
"Nah. He's too good." Goku said.
"Oh... That's okay, you're still the coolest to me!" Goten said.
"Aww... Thanks, buddy." Goku said.
"That's sweet." Gohan said.
"Well, we almost have the whole family!" Goku said.
"What's going on over there?" Goten asked, pointing at Beerus and Pinkie.
"I WANT THE PUDDING!" Beerus yelled.
"I WANT IT MORE!" Pinkie yelled.
"GIVE ME THE PUDDING RIGHT NOW YOU PINK DIABETIC!" Beerus yelled.
Pinkie was very insulted...
So she gobbled down the whole cup!
She crossed her forehooves.
...
Celestia was speaking with the chefs.
"We have more pudding, right!?" She asked.
"I'm afraid not, Princess... We ran out." The male chef said.
Celestia and Luna looked worriedly at Beerus...
He had a purple aura around him...
He looked severely pissed off.
He grunted very loudly.
"You... have made me MAD!" He screamed, unleashing his pressure intense aura everywhere.
The winds alone kept ponies from looking.
The ground below him actually cracked...
"Oh dear." Whis said calmly.
Pinkie was scared at that.
"Can you feel that!?" Gohan asked.
"I can taste that!" Goten said.
Celestia and Luna rushed to Beerus.
"No, Lord Beerus!" Celestia pleaded.
"Please, stop!" Luna pleaded.
Beerus got immensely angry at this distraction and roared even louder, pushing the two aside.
"What in the hay is going on!?" Applejack asked, holding her sister close.
"Oh no..." Gohan said, standing up.
"That doesn't look good." Goku said.
Beerus made the tables and food fly everywhere.
"You have failed to show me respect as a destruction god..." Beerus said grimly, holding up a hand.
Gohan was running towards Pinkie as fast as he could.
"And now you shall be punished!" Beerus yelled, unleashing a yellow blast on Pinkie.
Gohan appeared in front of her at the last second in an attempt to shield her.
***
Outside the castle wall...
BOOM!
Gohan was flying out the wall!
Debris and bricks flew everywhere...
Gohan landed on his back 10 feet away.
He shielded Pinkie, so she was unharmed.
But he took that head on.
He struggled to get himself back up from that...
His shirt was torn a bit.
He managed to sit up.
Pinkie zipped away from that scene.
"Equestria has failed to give me the respect I deserve..." Beerus said.
"So what...!?" Gohan asked.
"It's time..." Beerus said.
Then the Royal Sisters dreaded these words.
"...to punish Equestria." He said.

I dunno.
