Long ago in a star system far from our own, two planets began a millennia old war, A fearsome battle between good and evil spanning the entire galaxy. The Equestrians, a race of divinity and nobility, born with kindness and valor in their hearts. Their very nature conflicted with their rivals, the Saiyans, bloodthirsty and warmongering creatures bred only for battle.
Though most of the universe is a mystery even to the most exploratory soul, few even in the ever spanning cosmos are unaware of the grudge between, even to the far reaches of the Galactic Cold Empire. Upon the Emperor's retirement, King Cold had turned over his kingdom to his son, Frieza. A cruel being with a heart so black and vacuous it is comparable to black hole.
He approached both the Equestrians and the Saiyans separately, orchestrating them as a puppet master, and fueling his own economic growth.
Through the Equestrians he had gained a new face of the Empire, one of strict but fair rule, where loyalty and duty are rewarded plentifully.
Through the Saiyans, pretending to act as rebellious space pirates, destroyed any and all rivals. Threats to Frieza's rule, many planets harboring billions of innocents reduced to asteroid fields for the fault of a handful.
Eventually came the day when both had outlived their usefulness as one Saiyan would come to realize the true goals of Frieza...
A squad of Saiyans sit among the remains of an extinct city. Rubble and topple buildings surround the large crater that they had created during their final assualt. A lone one eats one of the inhabitants away from the group. His comrades glance over snickering.
"Hey Bardock! You seeing visions yet!? I hear these guys could see the future!"
Another one laughs rubbing his fat gut stuffed with their prey.
"If that's the case why didn't they put up more of a fight!? Gwahahaha!~"
A woman picks her teeth with a bone as her tail holds up a skull.
"Maybe we have to look through their eyes? Too bad we didn't get one to test on. Woulda made for a neat trophy!"
A tall one stands proudly sneering with pride.
"I bet they saw their demise and just accepted their fate! Ha! Weaklings!"
His unit celebrated but Bardock alone sat there in thought. This planet was in Equestrian Terriotry, they should've came as soon as the Saiyans arrived, yet even now there's not a single ship. Not even a Royal Guard. Then there were the matter of their targets in the first place. The Kanassans were such a troubling race to Frieza that he had no choice but to call upon them. Therein lies another nagging issue for Bardock. Though certainly not harmless, he and his team proved to be overkill, even with the aforementioned precognition. He would see them evade his attacks before he swung, but despite their sight, they could not keep up with the terrifying speed and might of the Saiyans.
His friends called them weak, and though they were, it bothered him to no end. These people did not even have space travel technology. No galactic weapons. No hidden mystical element save for their future visions. It gave birth to a question in the veteran's mind... Did Frieza have them wipe the Kanassans out because of their ability? Is he afraid of something they would, if not already had, seen? A being such as Frieza who could eliminate these people a hundred times over without breaking a sweat?
"Fasha. You may be right. We should've kept one around."
He stands to his feet before their scouters, eye accessories used to scan life on a planet, all direct them to Bardock. A Kanassan erupts from the beneath the ground, having been buried underneath from the destruction, lunges at the surprised veteran. His hands dig into his head, and his thoughts dig deeper, sending a dying telepathic message.
["Saiyan! For your crimes! I grant you a cruel gift! Our Foresight! See for yourself what we see!"]
"A-Aah...!"
Bardock's eyes widen in sheer terror as he saw his homeworld, Planet Vegeta, obliterated by Frieza himself. Blinking the vision away, he turns the alien into dusts with an energy blast from his hands. He grabs his head seeing another vision of himself on Planet Equestria before the Royal Family themselves. Both were impossible, he thought, for Frieza needed the Saiyans and he would never make it on the surface of his nemesis alive.
His most trusted comrade, Tora, takes to his side.
"Hey, how could you let that thing surprise you? You've got a keener sense than the rest of us! You alright?"
"I'm fine. We report to King Vegeta. No one lost their pods to their Oozaru Form?"
All eyes look to the fat one, Shugesh. He barks at the group.
"It was a one time thing! You all get carried away too!"
Tora rolls his eyes at the bulky Saiyan but looks back at Bardock.
"Maybe you ought to take some time off afterwards. That thing has altered your brainwaves, I can see it through the scouted, nothing harmful but it could prove bad later."
Bardock only nods as his party board their vessels. Perfect spheres that float off the ground and fly right into space with no trouble. Within weeks, Bardock wakes up to the all too familiar sound of war. They had just entered their star system, the constant warring between two neighboring planets had become as natural to him as breathing, even with the threat of being blown into a fiery ball of space debris. They land on Planet Vegeta to no welcome party for their work, no matter the scale, is the average life of the Saiyan Army. Where other races only have the single hero or small elite class, even the lowest Saiyan has the power to eliminate an entire planet, and this power has made them the number one target across the galaxy. However, such conflict is what allows them to thrive, but even gods need rest and these cruel creatures are no exception.
In the Royal Palace, the King of All Saiyans stands in his private chambers, a scowl on as he speaks to the Queen of Equestria through a screen.
"Have you come to tell me of your surrender at last?"
She scoffs rubbing a star shaped scar on the crown of her head.
("That ego of yours costed you an eye and decades of your life, Ghost Eye.")
She glares at him as he sneers pridefully with his lone eye. No eye-patch or prosthetic, merely a pair of closed eyelids hide the vacant space, a trophy in his own mind to boast of his resilience. Though his title is treated as an insult on her planet, the galaxy at large fears the very mention of it, and he has embraced this. He points to his own forehead snickering.
"And you your horn. Next time I'll take your wings! I still remember their soft touch."
Her wings ruffle at the comment but she bites back a remark of her own.
("I have better things to do than enter another shouting contest with you. This is important, Saiyan.")
"Why should I listen to anything you have to say? Even right now our soldiers die by the minute at the hands of the other."
("And I would love to settle the matter personally but we're too evenly matched for that... We've fought each other countless times...")
Her head and heart aches reminiscing about their first encounter, shortly after her coronation many decades ago, his pod had crashed within her castle halls and he proclaimed war between them. Their first battle had lasted days with no rest until both were forced to retreat.
King Vegeta smirks looking back at it fondly. Though he never said it aloud, for it was loathsome to admit, he never admired nor respected anyone than his greatest foe. Were it anyone else besides Frieza, he would have hung up by now, and forgotten the conversation. He will always hear his beloved Queen out.
("I called about Frieza. He would have me extend one last olive branch of mercy. I pray you heed his word now if ever.")
"What does that miserable horned imp want?"
("Lay down your superweapon. Destroying the stars will not aid you in your conquest for the galaxy!")
King Vegeta tilts his head in confusion before turning away from her.
"I've nothing that could destroy stars... That would obliterate the planets orbiting them! I can't conquer dust!"
The Queen is taken aback by that answer but scowls at him.
("I won't tolerate your lies! Vegeta! You will dismantle and surrender your weapon! We've all seen the battle power spike on your planet!")
"I've no idea what you're talking about. If I really had a weapon of such grand destruction, wouldn't I tell you personally before you found out?"
("But Frieza said-!")
King Vegeta interrupts her snarling.
"Frieza will have what is coming to him! You really care and love all life in the universe?! Maybe you should look into your friends to be sure your goals align!"
He cuts the call and groans. Such miserable accusations are a headache to him. He knows it is Frieza's doing, that he'd be telling more lies, but this is something he wasn't expecting. Especially after the order for all Saiyans to return to their home world.
Regardless, things have been looking up for him, as his true masterpiece, his real weapon has provided promising results. His son has claimed yet another world as a mere toddler. He marches down the halls reveling in the pride of bloodline. He sits upon his throne awaiting a most cathartic session of the day. Hearing the reports of his subject, listening and learning of their accomplishments, and of course eliminating those that fail him.
One such failure storms into his throne room.
"Paragus, you dare enter my court unannounced?"
Paragus, though higher than a low-class warrior, was nowhere near the elite class. Such an act as his is punishable by death on the spot. Despite this, he continues making his way towards his ruler, shaking in terror and rage.
"You had my son... Executed and sent into the trash! Why!? He was just a babe! His power could have aided us in our conquest! He would've been a great help to the Prince! To you! To our planet! He was the ideal Saiyan!"
King Vegeta stands as he too approaches Paragus.
"A freak of nature and a potential threat to us all! There was no other choice you fool! You show great compassion for your boy, and as his father..."
He opens his empty eye, now filled with a bright light only glowing brighter, all who attended but Paragus took to the ground at once. The offensive Saiyan has been frozen in place in absolute shock, unable to move, unable to evade the inevitable as King Vegeta fires a powerful blast from his eye.
"YOU'LL DIE WITH HIM!"
The blast sends Paragus through the doors and past many Saiyans waiting in line to give their reports. His armor easily destroyed by The King who spits to the side as he closes his eye. He thinks back to the Queen's accusation, the weapon She had been accused him of could be this upstart's brat, that mutant that would have surpassed himself and his son were he allowed to live. He looks up to see Bardock and his squad.
"You there! Throw him into the trash as well! Garbage belongs with garbage!"
Bardock defiantly stares him down, but his comrades obey at once, leaving their leader to their monarch. King Vegeta's eye begins to glow under his eyelid.
"I'm in a bad mood, Bardock. I might send your child with those two next if I don't hear what I want to hear!"
Bardock only smiles back without any fear and speaks loudly.
"It was a success. Those fish freaks may have saw us coming but they died without even putting up a decent fight. It was a waste of time."
The King sneers with such pleasing news. The light dims and he takes to his throne, his own attendants and guards all stand at last, relieved that their King has finally calmed down.
"Good... Frieza wants all Saiyans to be here in thirty-"
"I heard over the scouter on the way here. Why tell me this again?"
"Because you tend to have rebellious streak and go off on your own! Were you not such a brilliant warrior I'd have killed you for your insolence! Now go and relay the message to the others! I want everyone to have this order drilled into their skulls!"
Bardock smiles smugly before turning away.
"I'm too tired from wasting my energy..."
He stops and his eyes become glossy for but a split moment. In his eyes, Frieza floats between two planets, Equestria and Vegeta. The tyrant laughs boisterously as he launches an attack that single handedly destroys Vegeta, before turning around, and doing the same to Equestria. King Vegeta barks at Bardock resting casually in his prized seat.
"Is there something else you have to say, bastard? Or are you just testing my patience yet again with your idling?"
Bardock shakes his head refusing to accept these visions as true. It had to be a mental attack, a final attempt at revenge beyond the grave, to drive him mad with these false flashes. He growls and walks away without another word.
Bardock stares down at an incubation pod, a child floating in medicinal fluids floats inside, arms folded as he watches the baby intently.
"You're so weak... Are you really my kid?"
"What's that supposed to mean?!"
He glances to the side already knowing the origin of the voice.
"He's certainly your brat with that battle power."
A woman wearing a stained apron folds her arms at him frowning.
"That's unfair, Bardock. I haven't even given any other guy the time of day."
"Who else would? You're looking well. Raditz is doing fine too?"
She nods with a gentle smile, something that irritated Bardock, yet it endeared him to her as well.
"He asks about you a lot. You should have seen him before he left for another mission... He's only a boy that misses his father!"
Bardock scoffs and looks back to his youngest child.
"You're being too soft on that runt, Gine. I don't want them growing up to be like Equestrians. We're Saiyans."
"And what if Kakarot here is like me? Too weak, too soft, are you just going to abandon us?"
The veteran gives her a dismissive scoff and a snide tone.
"Are you really relying on me again? Can't you do things on your own for a change?!"
"I feed you and many others on my own! You want to cook your own meals? How's your diet of charred alien going?!"
His stomachs growls betraying his defiant expression. No words to retort with as Gine smiles in her own small victory. She looks over to her son and places a hand on the surface of the glass.
"Kakarot looks so much like you... I was hoping you'd at least be around long enough to see him go on his first mission."
Bardock glances between the two of them. He sighs shaking his head before he places a hand on Gine's shoulder.
"Due to some unforeseen events, I'm taking a short break from work, I'll be on standby for a few days."
Gine looks at him in absolute surprise before hugging him tightly.
"That's great news! I'll whip us all something big to celebrate when Raditz returns!"
On Equestria within the capital of the planet and home to the Royal Family, the Queen looks over two babies softly sleeping within their own pods. One styled after the sun with benevolent flames with other styled after the many moons orbiting the planet. Her two nieces and the future of their kingdom hover above ground. She sighs and gives a silent prayer until her doors open. Two guards salute her with one speaking up.
"Your Highness! Our spies have returned... It seems it's true. The Saiyans have no such weapon developed."
She looks back at them with a pained expression.
"Then it's as I feared... Frieza really has been benefiting from our struggles against the Saiyans. Just how long has he been lying to us? Using us?"
She turns to the last remaining family she has before marching past her guards.
"It seems we're headed to darker times than we thought. For their sake, and the sake of us all, send Luna to Namek and Celestia to Earth. We can't risk them both being lost to the battle in space."
"W-Where will you be headed, Your Highness?!"
She remains silent as she takes flight from a balcony. Flying high in the clouds, her divine sight which allows her to see almost all things scans the land and seas, from the highest mountains to the deepest of caves. She lands outside of one such cave, obstructed by crystals that move out of her way with a gesture, and close behind her. She walks deep into the pitch black tunnel until she heard the voice. A chaotic voice made up of several familiar voices, old and new, and those completely alien to her.
"aH… you're bAck? hOW MANY Years hAs IT been tHIS tImE, HuH? hhere to FREE mE fInaLly?"
She shakes her head speaking sternly.
"No. I can't do that, you know this already, demon."
The voice snakes around her, wind flowing as if something slithers around her body, but she knows better. Her eyes narrow ahead at the statue of an inconsistent being.
"Then wHY ARE YOU here."
"The Kanassa people have gifted me their power of Foresight... However, I only see the destruction of this planet, of my people in the near future. The Saiyans have forced us to bring all hands on deck, and then they have all of their forces return to their planet too, yet it is not they that I worry about."
The eyes of the statue glow for a moment as the voice sings in childish delight.
"sounDS lIkE a dREAm TO mE... cOLD'S brAT… FrIEzA, right? YoU rEAllY tHINK sENdIng tttHosE TWO iS A GooD ideA?"
"It's the only option I have until I can save the planet from this... Disaster."
She lowers her head. She isn't even sure why she came here in the first place...
"yOu'vEE beEN strrrOnG fOR SO Long... To sEE YoU Be so VUlneRrRraBLe iS AS much CathARRRRRsis aS it Is sOUL CRuShIng. I'lL LeT YoU iN On A SeCrEt…"
"What knowledge could you have would prove useful to me now?"
The voices laugh and scoff at the same time.
"MY Age HaS mAdE Me a wEaLTh oF SeCREts aND WiSdOm… bELiEVe mE or Not... That's all YOUR ChoIiIicE.
"My ancestors put you here and I maintain the duty of keeping you sealed... So why even bother saying such things to me?"
The many voices chuckle and laugh before growing quiet. After an eternity in the void of silence, a single voice speaks, one she certainly never heard before.
"Before the Sun was Red, Saiyan and Equestrian were one, and the number of enemies were none. My advice to you is find a Saiyan and do what you can... If this planet is destroyed. So am I!"
"Saiyans and Equestrians... Used to work together? Out of all your ridiculous jokes-!"
She cuts herself off having feeling the presence of the sealed entity become dormant. It said what it wanted to say and that was that. However, the message bothers her to no end, that she'd have to ally with a sworn enemy? As she leaves the cave, she closes her eyes to tap into the gift of her Foresight, to look before the destruction of her planet. To her own surprise, a ceasefire occurs, and Frieza is between both worlds. His true colors display themselves as he sends his army to eliminate Planet Vegeta, and only one lone Saiyan faces them all, already wounded from a battle prior to this.
She had to warn the others. Formulate a plan. She could not let Frieza get away with his crimes. Even if she had to rely on her worst enemy.
Bardock eats the last plate of his personal buffet. He belches loudly with Gine rolling her eyes at him.
"Thank you for the compliment... Oh! Look, outside!"
"Huh?"
The two run outside as an alien spacecraft lands just outside of their home. A Frieza Force standard ship. Bardock relaxes until he sees Equestrians leave the ship. A woman far taller than himself with a colorful mane that shines on it's own. Though he left his scouter inside, he could feel her power, something that made his hair stand on end with both excitement and in anxiety. The woman eyes Gine as the Saiyan turns to run inside and Bardock readies himself for a battle.
"You're a dead girl walking for coming here alone."
"I'm not here to fight Saiyan. I am here for you... You can see the future, can't you?"
Bardock's eyes widen in shock as he stands there listening to her continue.
"I saw you in a vision... You can see it too? The destruction of a planet. Your planet... Well, I see a vision as well, of Equestria being destroyed. I had only recently learned of Kanassan's destruction due to their distress signal being intercepted, and not by Saiyan origins, but Frieza Force."
Bardock stares at her full of confusion, riddled with questions, but his first instinct is to look back and shout loud as he can at Gine.
"DON'T YOU CALL ANYONE!"
Gine looks back at him mirroring his own stunned expression.
"But she's-!"
"She's not lying. I didn't tell you and there's no time to tell you. Just do as I say and listen to her... This is important."
"This is insane! Bardock, how can you trust a word out of her?!"
He looks to the woman and rubs a scar on his cheek.
"I've met many Equestrians, killed many, got beaten by them too. They don't lie... And she's right. I have been seeing those visions. Frieza is up to something and it must be big if the Queen of Equestria herself came to me personally."
The Queen leans back caught off-guard. She had dressed as humbly as she could but Bardock only folds his arms.
"The King has made it clear that you're target number one. We see you, we kill you, but I don't care for that right now. There's no point if we both croak..."
"My thanks for your understanding... You didn't react to my craft as I thought you would. My theory proves correct then."
"That Frieza has us under his thumb too? That he's been lying to you and an entire galaxy for years?"
She bites her tongue wanting to say that she knew. She always had her suspicions unlike her predecessors, who believed the best in all beings even the Saiyans, but like them she never spoke up about it to anyone. She only nods in response. Her brows furrow as Bardock laughs.
"I was wondering if any of you actually had any brains up there! Can't say I blame you too much when you're all a bunch of do-gooders."
"... I have a plan. We will consult with our forces and join together in fighting Frieza!"
"As if...! Why would the Saiyans ever work with you!? We can kill him ourselves alone! The might of the Saiyan Race is rivaled by none! Not even you, Hornless Queen."
Gine pulls at Bardock's arm murmuring for him to stop. The Queen's mane begins to flicker and lash for a single second. Her patience tested and a nerve struck as she brushes her hair away to reveal the infamous scar.
"Yes... Perhaps it is better this way. The message has been received and that is all I came here to do. Do as you please, apes,"
Bardock scoffs pulling himself away from Gine but the woman speaks up regardless.
"What about Kakarot!? What if he has someone attack us from the inside? You know there are some more loyal to Frieza than they are to Vegeta."
The Queen looks at Gine with bemusement until she sees it herself. An uncharacteristic love and compassion, a blooming flower among an arid desert, the kicker for her were Bardock's next words.
"You're right. He's too vulnerable and weak to send to his brother. We'll have to get him out of his incubation pod too."
The Queen raises a hand to them both.
"Kakarot is your son, am I right? Saiyan Bardock. You must be aware that the Kanassan Foresight is certain... Though I too refuse to sit back and do nothing, let me do this much for you."
She rolls her fingers and brings out the two pods carrying her nieces.
"These are the last of the Royal Line of Equestria. Celestia and Luna. I will be sending one to Planet Namek, as it has gone through an extinction event, only I through my connections know that it is still inhabited by the surviving natives. The other will be sent to Earth. A planet so primitive and so far from our star charts, not even Frieza's most scholarly servants know it exists, and it's natives are too weak to harm even our children. You can choose which of my nieces your son can go to."
Gine glares at the Queen full of skepticism. This is her youngest child they're talking about. She half expected Bardock to make the decision for her though, he always does, but this time he looks at her.
"I trust her but do you? He's your brat as much as he is mine."
"... Is it true? You don't lie, Your Highness?"
The Queen nods and approaches them with one of the pods. She risks a lot being within an arm's length with them, but with so much on the line for each side, she finds it necessary to at least gain as many; or as little, allies as possible.
"This is Celestia. She is the eldest and would have taken my crown were things to go as they should have."
The baby opens her eyes and smiles with a giggle. The Queen opens the pod and lifts her into her arms with a smile of her own.
"In truth I could care less about what she does now... I simply want her to live... Just as I assume you would of your son. So, I offer my escape for him... However I can only allow him. Three pods fleeing under the fire of war between our worlds would go unnoticed, but your battle powers are too high to go unseen, as is my own."
Gine looks at the baby with hurt in her eyes. She can see herself holding Kakarot, and the mere idea of his death is unbearable, the death of any of her loved ones was. She had come to terms and braced herself for Bardock's death, but not her sons, and so dons a resolute face.
"I'll hide you here best I can until Bardock returns with Kakarot!"
Bardock shakes his head in disbelief.
"Me?! Why am I-!?"
She interrupts him with repeated pokes to the chest, forcing him to step back with each one, showing an assertion he had never seen from her before.
"Because YOU can fly faster than me! YOU also can get in and out of the nursery without being stopped! YOU can't keep still either and she is giving us grace here! So go get our son, NOW!"
The Queen tilts her head at the two curious of their relationship. She knew enough about Saiyans that they only mate for the sake of reproduction, love is a concept nearly foreign to them, and yet before her was a family full of love. Bardock himself could see the truth behind Gine's stern façade, it was hope that her son would make it out of this alive that was keeping her from breaking down, her lips quivering and eyes twitching as she barely holds herself together. He nods and flies off at once.
The three part ways with the Queen returning to Equestria with Kakarot in tow.
Bardock, with all his power, spread the word of Frieza's betrayal. From bars, to spaceports, to even the Royal Palace. To his horror, his absolute rage, all reacted in the way King Vegeta had. The one eyed king laughs in his face with the others in the main hall of his castle.
"Bardock, I thought you were a man of battle and science, not a court jester!
"But King Vegeta...! It's true! It's all true I'm telling you!"
"Your delusional visions are just that! Now get out of my sight! I can't have you raving mad about this when he arrives."
"He's coming here already?!"
"He's managed to get those wild horses across the bow to stop attacking us... Provided that we do too. This is it, the final assault we've waged this war for, we'll be rid of those Equestrians! Then, Frieza next!"
He laughs with the others as Bardock is restrained by the Elite Guard. He forces himself out from their hold and runs outside. Unbeknownst to him, The Queen looks to him on her planet, the two orbiting so close to each other now as it does every year. To their horror, Frieza's personal ship along with a fleet of his most fierce and renowned men, arrive between the planets. She orders a mass evacuation and goes to meet the Galactic Emperor herself. Bardock flies up as well, though Saiyans normally cannot survive space, the atmosphere's of both planets would be in congress now and Frieza resided within the outer most limit that is breathable for him. Before he knew it, an army descended upon him, but he had to try. He had to save Planet Vegeta.
Wave after wave, fist after fist, bones would break and bodies blasted into ash by his energy attacks. However, he was far from the perfect soldier, and suffered wounds of his own. The soldiers rally against him together.
"This Saiyan's gone nuts! What's with him?!"
"The ape is trying to get to Lord Frieza! Stop him!"
"H-He's not even trying to fight us-! M-Make a blockade! Quick!"
An entire unit of officers is blown away from behind, surprising the army and Bardock, the Queen flies from the other side. Frieza's Army had not sent even a single soldier to Equestria, but over half of his forces were flying towards Vegeta, allowing her to beeline straight for the Saiyan's position.
"Are you suicidal!?"
"No one would listen... What about you?! Don't you have an army with ships and turrets!?"
"Our technology came from Frieza and he has a safety lock on all weapons to keep pirates from using it on civilians. It occurred to us today of all days that our artillery malfunctions the true purpose of the lock... I'm the only one coming to help while the others evacuate."
"That's just great! Out of all the back up I need and I get some idiot of woman!"
He silences himself as The Queen spreads her wings before firing a multitude of energy beams that obliterate the surrounding forces piercing through their chests. Bardock looks around as the bodies descend upon his planet from the gravity.
"I thought you were supposed to be a pacifist, or at least protector of life, right?"
The Queen glares ahead towards Frieza's flagship.
"Frieza is far more dangerous than any Saiyan alive... His evil knows no bounds. He must be destroyed!"
Bardock channels his power, a rare ability in the universe, rising in strength as his blood boils.
"Now that's what I want to hear! You listening to that Frieza!? The Saiyans and the Equestrians are working together now! GET READY TO DIE!"
Though Bardock is a fierce warrior, stubborn and durable with several years of experience, most attention is drawn to the far more powerful Queen. Her spells incapacitate several by summoning chains of light that wrap around hapless soliders, handing them to Bardock to dispatch as he swings them against their allies. Those few that get close enough are blown back by her superior strength, instantly losing conscious upon impact, the last line of defense cower at their combined might.
"H-Hey, hey wait a minute! Pegasi aren't that strong, right?! Why is her battle power so high?!"
"You idiot! That's the Queen herself! She's an alicorn…! She lost her horn a while back but found a way to use magic without one! T-This might actually be it for us!"
Both assailants shout together as the charge towards their goal.
"FRIEZA!"
Just as fast as they were to advance through the army, they stop abruptly as the ship's main doors open, alone before all floats out the Lord of the Stars. The Emperor of Terror. A man who successfully lied to an entire universe until today and will get away with it...
Frieza watched with delight at a Saiyan seeing through his rather simple ploy, but an Equestrian working with him, and the Queen of all of those horse brained peace-keepers. He knew this day would come and their rebellious attitude only proves further that they must be eliminated. He sits in his prized hover chair and meets them outside. His soldiers hail and praise him in fear but he doesn't hear them. His mood has been soured enough by their pitiful display of being unable to detain a low-class warrior Saiyan.
It's absolutely disgusting just how much they've failed him.
His stoic face hides nothing, absolute apathy towards them all, especially as this worthless monkey begins to spout nonsense towards him.
"Frieza! It's over for you! The Saiyans! The Equestrians! We're done working for you, no more lies, and no more war for you to hide behind! You're done for, you creep!"
He only rolls his eyes at the Queen's speech as well.
"For years we believed you, acted as the face of the Empire in Cold's name, but when you took over I knew something had changed! Shifted! Your deceit ends here, for just as long as evil is done in darkness, there will always be a light to shine upon it with justice!"
They hold their hands close to each other, sharing in one's energy regardless of the power gap between them, creating a large ball of plasma.
"Take this you bastard!"
"This will change everything!"
They throw it at him, an attack that certainly could destroy a planet, but him? Frieza smirks at this cute display before raising a mere finger. At the tip begins a small flaming ball. In a single second it grows to the size of a moon. The attack sent towards him is destroyed by the mere size of Frieza's own powerful creation. Bardock is speechless at the results as the Queen only looks back shouting.
"Y-You'd sacrifice this many men just to kill us?! There are thousands, hundred thousands we left alive, are you that cruel!?"
Frieza responds only laughing at her pathetic pleas before letting the finger fall. Such a simple gesture for a simple act. The dwarf star he created hurdles towards Planet Vegeta at a dreadful speed. Fast enough to see it coming, yet slow enough to think about what comes next, to wait out the inevitable. It was too big to dodge, too powerful to let alone, the rivals now made allies look to each other and nod.
Even if it meant defeat they would still try.
Bardock fires with all his might, his hate, and even his love towards the gaining star. The Queen's scar glows brightly as her wings slowly fade away. She puts her very life into her attack, defending a world that has wanted her dead before her birth, ironic and yet she feels it fitting. They both gasp as a quick vision strikes them both of an oncoming attack from behind. They cut off their attacks to dodge a giant beam narrowly missing them.
From behind, Every Saiyan on Planet Vegeta had turned into an Oozaru, the Great Ape. King Vegeta leads them, having fired a most powerful blast from his mouth, and the Elite Guard assists him. The dwarf star is pushed back at Frieza. The annoyed tyrant slaps it away to the side to destroy a nearby moon. He assumed that's what they were using to unleash their full power. However, he displayed shock seeing that they remained as giant monkeys. Bardock however saw the true source of their power. Surrounding them were small orbs of light.
"Power balls...! They actually made use of my research after all, huh?"
King Vegeta points towards Frieza as his off hand holds many of his soldiers.
"Frieza! It's as Bardock there says! We're done doing your dirty work! Exposing your slimy true face to the galaxy is one thing, but killing you too, that's what I was waiting for! Saiyans! Attack!"
With their own sources of energy now by their side, the rampaging monsters fly towards Frieza, a collective battle power far exceeding his own currently. For the first time since he can remember he feels a twinge of fear. Then came the offending bolt to his head. A magical beam strikes him followed by a rain of energy beams. Behind him, Unicorns are carried by Pegasai, as well as armored Equestrians using weapons long retired for several decades.
"We're not running if our Queen isn't! Down with Frieza the Liar!"
Frieza, for one of the few moments in his life, has had to be put on the defensive. His ship would be destroyed, and he had spent a lot of resources customizing to his specifications.
No. There couldn't be any more condescending and dismissive thoughts now. His life truly was in peril. He speaks at last with an irritated smile hiding his utter rage.
"I see... If only you two could get along before now. Hohohoho!~ At least I can promise you this..."
He shouts abruptly, roaring with a shrill cry, his personal chair destroyed by his power as he begins to lose control over his temper.
"YOU WILL ALL DIE TOGETHER!"
He erupts with a wave of telekinetic power from his body, shielding him from the planetary assault on him, before raising his hands high in the air. He creates another giant ball.
Except it grows bigger. Bigger. Bigger, Finally it stops at the size of their planets, a third celestial body made of pure evil and destructive energy, made at such a frightening speed that no one from either side could act. Even in the brief moment that Frieza takes to revel in their shared expression, none dare to move, for the sheer terror in their hearts stop them dead in their tracks. A single moment is all he will allow. He detonates the attack creating a small scale supernova.
As the two races are evaporated, in their last moments of life as they burn into ash, Bardock and the Queen see a final vision. One that lets them die with peace in their hearts...
Frieza looks around at the empty space around him, the star system which held the mightiest races now made into nothing, how he would have loved to enjoy this... However, he had to destroy everything around him to be rid of the pests, including his own army and ship. Though he knows the stars well enough to travel to the closest spaceport, it is still lightyears away, and to travel physically would be mildly annoying. That is until a ship similar to his own flies near. A familiar entity floats out sitting in a char much like his own.
"Frieza, you idiot, look at the absolute state of this situation."
"Shut your mouth, Cooler! I don't want to hear lest I destroy you as well!"
"And miss the sideshow circus of your failure of managing your empire? You should be grateful to your brother now... I would love to leave you alone in deep space, but we're needed elsewhere, now get in and we'll get you a new ship."
Begrudgingly, Frieza enters the ship and immediately takes to his own private quarters, but Cooler is approached by one of his henchmen.
"My Lord! Frieza has destroyed all life present... All but three! Just before the Equestrians attacked him, a single ship managed to shoot off-world. It is still in range for us to intercept and destroy-!"
"Delay that order."
"H-Huh...? S-Sir... Two powers were scanned to be at an astronomical level! Are you sure?"
"I am. You saw how embarrassing my little brother preformed, didn't you? This will provide him a lesson! If he's going to piss and moan to Father about getting his way, then he'll have to accept the responsibility of what he gains, don't you think so?"
The henchman nods repeatedly.
"O-Of course but-! W-What if this comes back, my Lord?"
Cooler simply moves on ahead of his henchman already putting this whole fiasco behind him.
"If this comes back to bite him then it's his problem."
On Earth, two aliens ships were suppose to crash together. However, through chance or fate, they ended up separated upon entering the atmosphere.
A Saiyan boy lands in the wilderness of Mount Paozu. An Equestrian princess lands in the yard of Capsule Corp. Their story begins many years after this fateful day when they meet again...
