Aliens Vs. Predator: New Blood

"RAINBOW OPEN THE DOOR PLEASE!!!" Twilight shouted as she continued to bang on the blast door. Minutes had passed since their sky blue friend had sacrificed her self to spare them the wrath of an unknown creature hell bent on killing them. Her two closest friends were the most affected. The mares continued their pointless banging to no avail.

"Why? Why did ya have to do this Rainbow?" Applejack sobbed, unaware that her friend was still alive albeit barely. She turned and saw Daring on the floor crying silently and nearly snapped. “You.” Applejack growled. Daring looked up only to see an angry looking Applejack glaring down at her. She was about to ask what was making the farm mare so mad when Applejack bucked her into a nearby wall. Daring tried to get back on her hooves but was held up to the wall with Applejack’s front hoof.

“A-Applejack! What…. the buck…. is…. wrong…. with…. you?!” Daring struggled to get out of her mouth.

“IT’S YOUR DAMN FAULT DARING DO! IT’S YOUR BUCKING FAULT THAT DASH IS DEAD! SHE LOOKED UP TO YOU AND YOU LET HER DIE!” Applejack roared in anger.

“A-Applejack! Those…. creatures….are probably…. listening….to your yelling!” Daring warned.

“GOOD! I HOPE THEY HEAR ME! SO THAT WAY I CAN GIVE YOU UP TO THEM!” Applejack roared again. The suddenly a hissing sound was heard coming from the ceiling. Applejack and Daring Do look up and see something nightmarish. Standing in the room with the other ponies was a smooth headed version of the black colored creature from before. Swift Wing tried to leap at the creature and landed on it, trying to subdue it.

The creature hissed and grabbed the pegasus in it’s claws and flung him against another wall. The monster then crawled towards him with unnatural speed, Twilight trying to zap it in the process, and trapped Swift Wing on the wall. What followed was the worst moments of what remained of the rookie guard’s life. The creature opened it’s current mouth…. only to reveal a smaller one underneath. The smaller one then launched out and penetrated Swift Wing’s skull, in the process it also ate some of his brains.

“NO!” Twilight screamed as the creature’s mouth retracted back. It turned around, looking to take the farm mare back to be harvested but soon it’s head exploded as Twilight’s bolt soon connected with it’s head, it’s acid blood spilling in almost every direction but Twilight threw up a shield surrounding the group. The ground in front of them sizzled as the blood ate through the metal as though it was nothing.

“Alright. Now we’ve got some information on these things.” Doc said.

“And what might that be?” Applejack asked.

“That they’ve got a concentrated acid that takes for their blood. Now we’ve at least got a way to kill them. We just need to make sure we don’t make a wound that spills their blood.” Doc replied.

“Okay. But where do we go from here?” Applejack asked as she looked around. Twilight’s horn glowed and showed a path down a dark area.

“There’s a corridor a few feet from where we are. Follow me.” Twilight replied as she began to walk down the hallway. But little do they know that watching them from a ventilation duct, the abomination was observing them. Snarling knowing that it has new prey, it crawls back from where it came from ready for its hunt.

The Predator, known as Yeyinde or Brave One, finally made it to the med-bay on the ship. It had seen better days but he knew that it still worked. He placed the injured blue pegasus on the table, locking her with several braces, just as she started to wake up.

“W-where am I?” Rainbow asked, with difficulty as part of her face was still melted a little. She turned to try and get up but found that each move she did hurt worse than a Manticore’s sting. “OH BUCK ME!” She yelled. She then saw it. The creature that was going to kill her standing in plain view. For a few moments Rainbow was scared that she was seeing this beast again. “W-what d-do y-you w-want from me h-huh?” she asked as best she could with the pain increasing greatly, the blood from her still seeping from the wounds. She noticed that the creature’s right hand moved to something on it’s other wrist and soon heard beeping sounds coming from the device on the creature’s wrist

“HuRt VeRy BaDlY. sAvE yOu.” The alien said in a disoriented voice that sounded like a messed up version of her own voice. It walked over to a nearby console and took out a needle from it. Many ponies don’t know this but Rainbow Dash actually has a small fear of needles and this one looked particularly sharp to her. She started to panic when she noticed that it stabbed itself and pulled back on the injection tube, pulling out some of it’s blood which glowed green. After it was filled half way the alien then started to walk back over to Rainbow who started panicking again.

“L-look. I don’t want a-any trouble. S-so just l-let me go and I w-won’t have to hurt you.” Rainbow said. But then the creature stabbed Rainbow with the needle and injected its blood into her.

“OW! What was the for?!” Rainbow asked angrily.

“BlOoD iMpOrTaNt. It mAkEs yOu sTrOnGeR.” The creature replied. Immediately Rainbow felt the effect of the blood take it’s effect because Rainbow felt her body burn with pain as if she was thrown into a flame. Her forehead started to really hurt though as it started to expand and become more pronounced on her. The legs then started to extend a little bit but it felt as though they were breaking inside of the cyan mare.

But, in her opinion. The worst part, aside from her forehead, was the teeth. She felt as if four of her teeth were being pulled by a pair of tweezers. She then saw blood drip from her mouth and then four of her teeth fell out of her mouth and in place painfully grew four sharp and bloody fangs making her release a scream but what came out was a ferocious roar of pain like a Manticore. A tingling sensation then came to her neck and rear and then she felt her mane and tail morph. When the sensation was gone, she saw that her mane and tail was a little bit like the creature’s hair.

“What did you do to me?” Rainbow asked in a very deep version of her usual voice.

“I saved your life.” The creature said. This stunned Rainbow as she never knew that it understood her language. The creature must have seen the look on her face as he shook his head. “No I am not speaking your language you can understand mine. There is a difference.” It said to her. Upon hearing this Rainbow’s head dropped a bit. She blinked as she looked back up to the creature and suddenly saw nearly every color in the world. She was scared at this sudden development before she blinked again and she saw normally.

“WHAT THE BUCK WAS THAT?!” Rainbow screamed.

“What did you see?” The creature asked.

“I JUST SAW BUCKING COLORS WHEN I BLINKED!” Rainbow Dash roared.

“That must mean you have the vision of the Yautja. It’ll allow you to see the heat signatures of any living thing in the area.” The creature explained. It then walked over to a nearby closet and opened it up to reveal several masks like the one it was wearing. None of them seemed to satisfy it though. “Great I need to make you a personal mask.” It said with annoyance laced in it’s voice.

“A mask? Why on Equis would I need a mask?” Rainbow Dash asked the creature.

“For your survival here. Those serpents can’t be seen by Yautja vision. So the mask has a vision mode that will allow you to see any serpent hiding in the shadows.” The creature replied.

“What the buck is a serpent?” Rainbow asked. He opens a window and behind it is a collection of skulls. And the creature points to a skull that is long and in its jaws are silver teeth making Dash gulp a lump in her throat.

“That’s a serpent. Very dangerous.” The creature explained. After seeing the serpent’s skull Rainbow suddenly realized something.

“MY FRIENDS THEY’RE STILL ON THIS THING! I HAVE T-AAARRRGGHHH!” Rainbow yelled in pain. She looked over and saw that her left side still had some burns on it from the blood the serpent she shot sprayed on her. The Yautja saw this and went back to the console where he got the needle from earlier and pulled out a strange capsule. He pulled the capsule apart and in it was two, crystal-like shards. He walked over to the Yautja Pony and placed the shards near her chest.

“Don’t try to move. It’ll only hurt worse.” The Yautja warned.

“Wait w-AAAAAAHHHHHHH!” She roared in pain as the Yautja pierced her skin with the shards. But to her surprise, her burns healed almost instantly. The Yautja pulled out the shards which were now drained.

“The wounds are healed but you’re still weak. What you said earlier… what are ‘friends?’” The Yautja asked her. Rainbow gave him a are-you-bucking-kidding-me look.

“Listen… what’s your name?”

“Yeyinde, Brave One.” Rainbow giggled a little at the sound of his first name. “What’s so funny?” Yeyinde asked her.

“Nothing dude trust me. A friend is somepony that helps you out and you can relate to them. One of the most important thing’s I’ve learned is that you never give up on them and they don’t give up on you.” She stated. Yeyinde tilted his head a little as he pondered what she just said.

“So like a mate or a brother?” He asked. Rainbow sighed in disappointment this was going to be a long one.

Meanwhile, the group of survivors were walking through the corridor Twilight found a while ago.

“Sweet Celestia, this thing goes on forever.” Daring said in amazement.

“I know. But we need to keep moving, we don’t know what could be after us.” Twilight said back.

“What could possibly be chasing us through here?” Applejack asked. The moment she said that a giant version of the creature that killed Swift Wing earlier and it had traces of that two legged monster from earlier.

“RRRRAAAAHHHHH!” The beast let out a primal yell before it launched itself at the group. Twilight at the last moment pulled up a shield which the beast crashed into with a loud BAM!

“OH COME ON IS THERE ANYTHING ON THIS TIN CAN THAT DOESN’T WANT TO KILL US!” Twilight shouted. Twilight placed up the shield but to her surprise the creature smashed through it like it was glass making her stagger a bit.

“Twi’, what do we do?” Applejack asked.

“RUN!” She screamed. The ponies ran as fast as they could away from the creature but using its lightning fast tail, it grabbed Applejack and slammed her into a wall.

“APPLEJACK!” Twilight screamed as she watched the creature walked up to her. The monster glared down on the pony in much the same manner as the one from earlier glared at Swift Wing. Just as it started to open it’s mouth… It smelled them. The slayers of it’s kind where still on the ship. Two were asleep… and two were alive? It remembered erupting out of one of the slayer’s chests but it was sure that there was only three left. It glared at the orange being in front of it before it released it and started running towards the scents it just found.

The group just stared slack jaw at what just happened. It had an easy target so why did it spare Applejack?

The Abomination ran through the ship’s corridors as fast as it could towards the slayers. It’s special senses allowed it to see the pheromones floating through the air. It followed the pheromones of the slayers of which it hated the most. It hated the slayers down to its stomach for the slayers have made its family suffer for thousands of years. But now that two of them were unprotected it had the perfect chance to exact brutal vengeance on them.

Yeyinde helped the mare, who told him her name was Rainbow Dash, back on to her hooves and taught her some basic moves that his father taught him when he was younger. The process went smoother than he expected, the pegasus learned the moves almost as fast as he did when he was her age. He was about to correct her on one of their moves when the alarm went off.

No. Yeyinde thought to himself as he went to check what was causing the alarms to go off and noticed that something was trying to break into the cryo room where his other two clan brothers were located.

“What’s wrong?” Dash asked in a worried voice.

“Rainbow Dash, I need you to run.” Yeyinde said.

“What? Why?” Dash asked.

“Something… big and something you’re not ready to fight is trying to get in here to my clan brothers. I’m going to open the back door and you run out of it.” Yeyinde said.

“Alright.” Rainbow said as she headed for the door.

“Wait!” Yeyinde said getting her attention. “Take this with you.” He then passed her a mask custom made to fit her face. She grabbed it and put it on. He then passed her gauntlets like he had on and she placed them on as well.

“Welcome to the hunt Rainbow Dash.” Yeyinde said as he activated the door.

“Thanks.” She said back. Then as the door opened, the front door fell off it’s hinges and Rainbow Dash was startled to see the creature that tried to break in. The creature was dark yellow in color compared to it’s smaller siblings but what really startled Rainbow was that it’s head looked so similar to Yeyinde’s that it even had dreadlocks. The one thing that puzzled her was why it had mandibles around it’s mouth but at that moment the creature roared and tackled Yeyinde.
