The blood circled around the demon dogs corpse. I stared at the body for a few more seconds, and finally turned around to see several shocked humans, and a small girl with tears filling her eyes. I quickly formed a smile on my face, and walked over to the girl. She noticed this, and quickly backed away. I wasn't surprised, she was just about to be eaten by human sized dogs. I looked to my left, and saw a dead dog with keys laying next to it's body. I walked to the corpse, picked up the keys, and approached the cage of humans. I smiled, and unlocked the cage door. Instantly a women sprinted out of the cage, and hugged the child.I watched as the women held her crying child in her arms. I soon looked to the rest, and motioned them out. They were worried at first, but soon they all exited the cage. But an elderly man stopped right in front of me, and stared. Soon a smile slapped onto his face, and he began to laugh, and jump around. I raised an eyebrow to this, but soon chuckled at the sight of the dancing man. I cleared my throat, and the old man stopped dancing and looked back to me with the same smile. "Do you speak English pops?" I asked. The old man laughed even harder.

"Of course I speak English you fool!" He shouted, and walked up to me. I sighed with relief. At least they can speak English"Finally, a rescue team has arrived! We can finally escape this place!" I was confused. But before I could ask what he was talking about, a young red haired woman walked up, and put her hand on the old mans shoulder.

"Sorry, you'll have to forgive my father, he's a little crazy when he meets other humans. I'm Lizzy." She said, and pointed to the other humans. "And this is our tribe. Well, whats left of it anyways." She said with a depressed look. The old man flicked the side of her head, and glared at her.

"I'm not crazy! Look at this man, he's from our world you foolish child! The stories said that they would come for us!" He said with so much energy. Lizzy sighed, and shook her head.

"Those stories are a thousand years old. If they were true, then don't you think that this 'Rescue team' would have came by now?" She asked.

"Have you ever traveled through space!?"The old man yelled.

"Have you?" She asked. The old man huffed.

"Of course not." I rubbed the back of my neck, and sighed.

"Look, pops, I'm no rescue team." I said.

"B-but you have the symbol." He said, and pointed to my shoulder.

"This? I got this when I joined the Marines, but I'm not here to rescue anyone. I actually have no clue where I am." I said. The old mans smile disappeared, and he lowered his head. Lizzy sighed, and put her hand on the old mans shoulder. The old man pulled away, and walked back to the group. Lizzy shrugged, and looked at me.

"So, what tribe are you from?" She asked. I shrugged, and put my helmet back on.

"I'm not from any tribe." I said. She seemed a bit confused, and I just sighed. "Look, I have no clue where I am, so can you give me a few answers to some questions?" I asked. She nodded.

"Sure, what questions do you have?" She asked.

"Where am I?" I asked.

"The land of Equestria, and this is the Everfree forest, our tribes home. Our Tribe used to live in the mountains, but we were chased out." She said.

"By who?" I asked.

"Hunters of course. We thought we could hide in the caves, or bellow the trees, but hunters learned fast and smoked us out." She said.

"Well where is the nearest human military base?" I asked.

"Military, what military?" She asked.

"What about a human city, town, fort, anything?" I asked. She shook her head.

"We've never heard of humans having these things, we humans always hide. So building one of those up would bring the hunters running." She said. I shook my head in disbelief, and sighed.

"Well why are these things hunting you?" I asked, and kicked a near by dead armored dog.

"Well, the Diamond dogs hunt us for food. But they're not the only ones hunting us. The Griffons hunt us for sport, and the Ponies hunt us for slavery, or pets." She said.

"Dear god." I mumbled. "How did this happen?" I asked,

"What d you mean, this is how it's always been." She said. I shook my head.

"No, no, NO! Humans aren't animals! We're bigger than that!" I said. "Shit..."

"Are you alright?" I looked to Lizzy, but she only pointed down. I looked down, and saw the little girl staring at me with confusion, and concern. I sighed.

"Y-yeah, I'm fine. How about you, are you alright?" I asked. She smiled, and nodded quickly.

"Yes, thanks to you. I thought they were going to eat me. Like they did with Grandma, and Grandpa." She said. "Thank you." She quickly gave me a hug, and ran back to the group. I chuckled a bit, and looked back to Lizzy.

"Cute." I said. She nodded in agreement, and chuckled. "Well, I'm glade I could help. Now please take care, hopefully I can change some things here so you can be safe." I said, and turned around to walk towards my objective, but before I could take one step, and she grabbed my arm.

"Wait, your leaving?" She asked. I nodded.

"Yeah, so?" I said.

"We were about to be turned into food, and you saved us. We need your protection." She said. I shook my head.

"You don't need my protection, defend yourselves." I said.

"How are we going to fight?" She asked. I sighed, and walked over to a dead dog. I pulled it's spear out of it's dead hands, and gave it to her.

"Plunge this into any asshole who fucks with you." I said. "Have a few other people grab a weapon too, ya know for extra power." She stared at the spear, and looked back to me with confusion.

"But we never used these kind of weapons. Actually, we never used any weapons at all. The warriors, and hunters from our tribe are the ones who trained with any sort of weapons." She said.

"Well your humans, so learn how to fight with weapons." I said, and patted her on the shoulder. "Look, once I'm done with my mission, I'll come find you guys, but for now find a place to hide." I said. She sighed, and nodded.

"Fine, but please come back. We need a great warrior, and that warrior is you." She said, and stuck out her hand. "Good luck on your mission." I nodded, and shook her hand.

"Thanks, and stay safe." I said. She nodded, and walked back to her tribe. I waved goodbye, looked at my helmets hud, and began to walk towards the direction of my tracker.


[Canterlot]

Celestia sat in the throne, reading over a few documents that were given to her, and yawned. 'Ugh, sometimes being princess is tiring, but someone has to do it.' Celestia thought. Celestia soon finished up with the rest of the documents, and sighed.'Finally, that's the last one. Just in time too, I can spend some time with Luna while I have the chance.' Celestia thought, and looked to a near by guard. "Excuse me, can you please send a message to my sister. I request a meeting in the garden." Celestia said. The guard nodded, and hurried out of the room. Celestia smiled, and rose from her throne, but before she could take one step a scroll appeared in front of her. Celestia took the scroll, opened it, and begun to read. As she read the scroll, her eyes widened with surprise. Soon that surprise turned into fear, and worry, but she did not show it. She kept a cool head, and quickly walked out of the throne room. As Celestia walked through the halls towards the royal garden, Celestia began to think. 'This isn't good, this isn't good at all! I must tell Luna.' She thought. Soon she reached the garden, and saw Luna sitting in the park awaiting for her. Luna saw her Celestia, and smiled.

"Ah, sister, I'm glade your free for a bit, I've been stressed for awhile. Some relaxation with my sister is just what I need." Luna said. Celestia sighed, and gave her little sister a worried look. Luna returned that look with a confused one. "Is something wrong?" Celestia sat next to Luna, and took a deep breath.

"I've received a message from Twilight, and I'm afraid something has just awoken in Equestria." Celestia said. Luna confused look turned into a worried one.

"What is going on?" Luna asked.

"Remember that blinding light?" Luna nodded. "Well when I sent that team to investigate, they were all killed by a human."

"A human!?" Luna asked.

"Yes, but a human with weapons that we have never seen before. After the human killed the guards, it captured Victors assistant, Tina. She said the human spoke clear Equestrian, and that this human wasn't from this world. She also said that the human may be on it's way to Ponyville." Celestia said.

"How, didn't we take care of the humans?" Luna asked.

"Yes, but it seems there is one last human we must take care of. If we don't, then I fear other humans will start to fight back." Celestia said. Luna shook her head.

"You know we can't let that happen again." Luna said.

"Of course Luna, we won't let that happen again. I'll have my best guards sent to Ponyville, hopefully if the human plans on attacking the town my guards will be there to stop it." Celestia said. Luna nodded.

"And I'll have my guards patrol Ponyville at night." Luna said. Celestia nodded, and sighed. Both Celestia, and Luna sat quietly in the garden. Soon Luna broke the silence. "I can sense your worry sister, but I am sure we well overcome this." Celestia smiled.

"Thank you Luna, I'm just concerned about Twilight." Celestia said.

"Twilight is smart, and strong. There is no need to worry about her." Luna said. Luna then got up, and placed her hand on Celestia's shoulder. "Well I must be going. Thank you for telling me this sister." Celestia smiled, and Luna walked out of sight. Celestia sat in the garden, and closed her eyes. She thought long, and hard, and finally relaxed. She took a deep breathe, and sighed.

'Everything will be fine.' She thought to herself. She then got up, and walked back to her quarters.


[Ponyville Library]

Twilight sat in the library with a nervous look on her face. Ever since she learned of the human, she began to worry about it coming to Ponyville. She was worried about civilians being hurt, or worse. But the civilians weren't the only thing she was worried about. What about the other humans? What will happen when they see this human? Will they turn against them? Will they kill others? These questions scared Twilight in a way. She has no idea what to do if Ponyville was under attack. She has no military training, and there are no guards in Ponyville. They are all defenseless. Though Twilight does have magic of an alicorn, she has no idea what this human can do. Twilight tried her best to shake these thoughts out of her head, but she was awaiting a letter from Celestia. Twilight sighed,and rubbed her neck. 'Calm down Twilight, calm down.' She thought to herself. 'Everything is going to be fine. There is no human attack coming. I mean, how stupid does that sound?' She chuckled a bit, and relaxed a bit. She sat in silence for a few more minutes, but Spike quickly broke the silence once he ran towards Twilight with a letter in his hand. Twilight jumped, and snatched the letter from his hand. She quickly thanked Spike, and begun to read.

Dear Twilight, thank you for informing me about this. This sounds like a serious situation, so I am sending several guards to Ponyville for protection until this human is captured. I'm sorry for this short letter, but I have just received several other documents. Please be safe Twilight.

Yours truly- Princess Celestia.

"Whoa, she's sending guards here? This must be big." Spike said.

"I guess it is, but I'm sure the guards will handle this human. Though I do want this human for testing. Maybe I'll have the guards bring the human to me first before they take it back to Canterlot." Twilight said.

"You sure, because from what you told me this human is no normal human." Spike said with a bit of worry.

"I'm sure the guards will be able to restrain the human." Twilight said. Spike kept his worried look, but Twilight only patted him on the head. "Don't worry Spike, nothing is going to happen." Twilight said, and walked towards the front door. "I mean one human can't be that hard to handle, right?" Spike was quite for a second, and then he nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, yeah your right. It's just one human, no big deal." Spike said. Twilight smiled, and opened the front door.

"Well I'm going to grab dinner for tonight, can you watch the library while I'm gone?" Twilight asked. Spike nodded.

"Sure, but don't be to long. I promised Rarity I'd help her with a few chores." Spike said.

"Don't worry Spike, I won't take long." Twilight said, and walked out the door.


[Jacobs pov]

After twenty minutes of walking through the forest, I came across a small village. I laid low on the edge of the forest, and scanned the village with my helmets hud. The place was crawling with ponies. As I scanned the village, I noticed that there were three kinds of ponies. Ponies with horns, ponies with wings, and ponies that had nothing. I was a bit confused with the ponies with horns, but I just shook that off once I saw humans. They were half naked, and they were being treated like dogs. I growled with anger, and began to think. My tracker had located T, who was in what looked like a hospital. I could find her in the hospital, and force her to take me to this princess, or I could just cause some chaos until the princess comes out. The last one seemed fun, but to be honest I have no interest in hurting civilians, or humans. So I decided to sneak into the hospital, and find T. I was about to jump to it, but I stopped once I spotted several flying chariots approaching the village. I zoomed in on the chariots, and saw armored ponies. Most likely soldiers. They landed in the village, and started to quickly spread out through the village. "Shit." I mumbled. With soldiers now in the village, it would be a lot harder to sneak into the hospital. That is in the day time. If I waited till nightfall I could easily past through, so I sighed, and sat up against a tree.

"Don't worry T, I'm coming." I said with a evil grin, and chuckled.
