Please, point out any Grammar mistakes and leave any constructive criticism it'll help me a lot.

Note: I know people are going to be whining that Songbird has no gender but to those who never heard the Nursery Rhyme, it says he is male. Example of the Nursery Rhyme.

"Songbird, Songbird, see him fly, drop the children from the sky. When the young ones misbehave, escorts children to their grave. Never back-talk, never lie, or he'll drop you from the sky!"

Crossover with
Bioshock Infinite
and
MLP:FIM
I do not own any of these

One emotion

One emotion

I flapped my wings as I picked up speed in the night flying around Columbia searching for my friend. Elizabeth. That name echoed in my mind as I let out a shriek to find her. Elizabeth was my only friend ever since she fixed me. We became friends after I crashed into Monument Island's tower and disconnected my breathing apparatus. After I struggled to put it back on Elizabeth connected it back on for me saving my life. That was the start of a new friendship. That is until he arrived, for the past few hours I have been chasing a man who kidnapped Elizabeth. I glanced down at Monument island the same place where I took care of Elizabeth by bringing her food, books, and drinks. The tower reflected the moon-light as I felt a sharp pain in my head as a voice spoke to me.

"Destroy the tower," it echoed in my mind over and over again. Letting out a blood-curling shriek I dove toward Monument tower. Slamming into it, I crashed through the tower demolishing the home of Elizabeth

"Why did I do that?" I thought to myself

. That's when the voices stopped repeating as I began feeling her presence. Elizabeth? Flying up, I glanced down and spotted her...with him. No, I'm not going to let him take Elizabeth away. Letting out a shriek that can pierce the soul of anyone, I flew down toward the pair.

"Elizabeth!" the man shouted as I dove toward them intent of ending his life for taking Elizabeth away. That's when I saw it, a flash of light blinding me, the world around me melting as I slammed into a wall shrieking. Glancing around to my horror, I was underwater. I slammed my fists into the glass as Elizabeth looked on, her face holding remorse as she put her hand on the glass. Elizabeth's voice was muffled by the water as she spoke to me. A sharp pain filling my body as I felt the pressure take its toll on me.

"Shhh, it's okay," she whispered as I sank to the bottom of the abyss, water filling up his body. This is how it ends? Elizabeth being abducted from me while I die in the bottom of a sea. Emotions, I didn't even know if I could feel emotions but if I can I would feel....Sorrow. The darkness consumed me as I felt that one emotion again...Sorrow.

Meanwhile in another universe.

Spike grabbed the final chicken as he placed him in the coop. Fluttershy had asked for his help in doing some chores in exchange for a few gems. After completing the task, he glanced toward Fluttershy smiling. The yello-maned pegasus giving him a warm smile that rivaled Celestia's.

"Thanks Spike it means a lot to me that you came here to help," she said her voice sounding like the wind, reaching forward she handed him a gem. Spike gave her a smile before he took the gem from her hooves.

"No problem Fluttershy. After all we are friends and that's what friends do," the purple dragon finished before glancing at the floor. Fluttershy embraced him in a hug. Spike returned the embrace he let out a sigh. Ever since Twilight found out she was the princess of friendship she couldn't hang out with him no more because of her royal duties. She couldn't even bring along Spike because he was still a baby dragon. Even though Twilight and the others still cared deeply about him. He still felt left out, the only one who still hung out with him was Fluttershy mostly because she had to tend to the animals and couldn't leave for trips for that reason. Their embrace was interrupted by a loud crash that echoed throughout Equestria.

"W-what was that?" Fluttershy whispered.

"I think it came from the Everfree forest," Spike replied back before rushing to the forest.

"Spike! Wait, it's dangerous to go by yourself," she said before following Spike toward the noise. Rushing through the thick forest brush, they stumbled onto the noise. A huge crater was brought into view as they stopped a few feet away from it.

"S-spike, what is it?" Fluttershy asked. Spike crept closer to the crater before peering into it.

"I don't know? It looks like a bird. A really big one too," Spike said before he was shoved out of the way by the pegasus. Fluttershy laid eyes on it and made out the bird-like creature. It had no feathers and its skin was seemed to be made out of steel and seemed scratched. Its eyes were shut and leaking a black fluid. It had talons like a Griffin but only on its feet while it had hands like a Minotaur . It had three talons on its feet while its hands had five talons. Its wings seemed to be made of steel and were folded. Its eyes shot open revealing its orange color.

"Eep!" Fluttershy said before darting toward a bush with Spike following her. Sitting up its head darted around searching for something before letting out a exasperated screech. Landing back on its belly it closed its eyes as more black fluid came out. Fluttershy and Spike stuck out their heads from the bush looking at the weird bird.

"Um, well I see it's fine! Lets go!" Spike said walking away before a hoof grabbed him and dragged him back.

"Spike, I think it's hurt we should help it," Fluttershy whispered as the creature let out a sniff. The sniff sounding like metal being dragged on concrete. Fluttershy crept out of the bush as she slowly walked toward the creature. Laying a hoof on the creature's beak, she flinched from the cold metal.

"Oh my! It is metal," Fluttershy thought as she looked at the creature. A hesitant Spike crept out of the bush as he looked at the creature. Creeping forward, he stepped on a twig letting out a SNAP. The creatures eyes shot open as it made eye contact with Fluttershy. Its orange eyes turned red as it got up and stood up on its feet while letting out a loud blood-curling shriek. Stepping back, Fluttershy's mouth dropped open at the creatures size. It was a huge lumbering bird that rivaled that of a Ursa Minor.

"Fluttershy? Are there birds that are that size?" Spike whispered his voice showing fright as he backed away from the lumbering creature. Fluttershy didn't respond, it was to distracted from the creature. Flying up it got near its eyes and began speaking trying to calm it down.

"Um, Excuse me? Mr. Bird, I was wondering if you're ok-" her sentence was interrupted by the creature letting out a shriek.

"Um, before I was interrupted. Are you okay?" Fluttershy finished as the creature's eyes turned an orange color looking at Fluttershy curiously. Fluttershy froze as screams were heard.

"It's coming from Ponyville!" Spike said before getting on Fluttershy's back and both flew toward Ponyville leaving the creature behind looking at them curiously still standing up. Flying toward Ponyville the duo spotted what was going on. A yellow Hydra stumbled around hissing as it terrified the townsfolk. Its feet stomped around searching for anypony to eat. That's when it laid its eyes on Fluttershy and Spike. Letting out a loud hiss it ran towards them. Fluttershy remained glued to the ground in fear as the creature got close. Spike screaming as the Hydra got closer.

A loud shriek was heard as a metallic blur slammed into the Hydra knocking it back a few meters. Fluttershy glanced up at her savior as her mouth gaped open in awe. It was the bird, its metal skin shined in the sunlight as it looked down at Fluttershy and Spike. Its eyes turning green before looking at the Hydra changing into the color red. The Hydra scrambled onto its feet as it let out a loud hiss and charged toward the bird. The bird let out a shriek before charging forward ready to engage the Hydra.

Author's Note

Had this idea stck in my head and since I'm a fan of the Bioshock series I decided to make a crossover. Enjoy! Next Chapter is going to be Songbird's POV by the way. Point out any Grammar mistakes. Thanks

New world

I glared at the two creatures standing before me. A yellow Pegasus and a purple dragon. Two mythical creatures who are standing right in front of me. No matter how hard I tried, they wouldn't leave me alone. That's when they heard them. The screams coming from another direction. The ears of the yellow Pegasus perked up before she exchanged a few words with the dragon that I couldn't make out. I was still recovering from my crash landing. The dragon then got on the Pegasus's back before flexing her wings and then she took off with the dragon placed on her back. What were they doing? Are they leaving me again.....like her? The screams clawed at my mind as they filled the air again. Fuck it, just go along with it. Flaring my wings, I launched myself into the air before I began flying toward the noise. Scanning the ground a small village cme into my view. A hulking yellow figure trudging toward....a Pegasus and a dragon.

It's them!

The hulking yellow figure was a serpent-like creature with three heads and two legs. The three heads hissed ahead as I let out a screech causing the creature to freeze in place. Tucking my wings in I shot forward like a bullet and collided with the creature at break-neck speed. The creature was knocked off its feet and slid back a few meters. Glancing over at the duo, I glanced at them. By now, I heard the hissing behind me.

He's getting back up!

Facing the creature, I let out a high shriek before charging forward. The serpent sidestepped avoiding my charge as I crashed into a building sending wood and glass everywhere. Getting up I faced my opponent letting out a loud shriek that shattered all the windows around me. Charging forward, I launched a punch at its head. My fist collided with its rib-cage as I unleashed a kick to its leg, sweeping its feet from under it. The creature hissed in pain as it landed on its back. I let out a stomp as my foot crushed one of its three necks. Hissing in pain the creature wrapped its remaining two heads on each of my legs as it stood up. Falling on my back, I saw one of its necks was hanging limply.

"One down, two to go."

Shooting out my fist, I attempted a punch before one of the two heads wrapped around my arm. The head coiled around my arm as I felt it latch onto my shoulder. This thing wasn't going to let go. I grabbed the neck of the head coiled around my arm. Planting my foot on its body, I pulled back. I felt flesh tear apart as the head coiled around my arm was ripped from its body. By the now the Serpent was very angry. Hissing in pain and anger it charged forward before it slammed into me. My feet planted into the ground as it attempted to push me back. My eyes glared at it before, I let loose a punch at its remaining neck. Stumbling back, I swept my foot under its legs causing it to fall on its back. Letting out a battle shriek, I flapped my wings before I launched myself into the air. My body slammed down onto its remaining head crushing it under my feet before letting out a shriek of triumph into the air. Glancing back at the Pegasus and the Dragon, I trudged toward them knowing they were safe from any danger. I stopped abruptly as I slammed into some kind of purple barrier. What was that? I glanced around me as a purple barrier surrounded me. Glancing forward, I saw another Pegasus. It was a Lavender one with a navy blue mane and a pink stripe running down it. On its head was a horn that stood out complete with a tiara.

"Is this the owner of this town?"

"Fluttershy! Spike! Are you guys okay?", She yelled out before sprinting toward the Pegasus and the Dragon. Thanks for the concern about me. The yellow Pegasus hid behind her pink mane before she looked at her friend.

"U-um y-yes we are.", Fluttershy said before the dragon interrupted.

"It was so cool! You should've seen it Twilight! The Hydra was all like, "I'm going to eat you!" And then this huge bird that came out of the Everfree was all like, "Naw, naw you ain' touching my frien-"

"Wait! You said this creature is from the Everfree!?", The lavender pony interrupted Spike before she glanced at me.

"This doesn't seem like any species, I've read about."

"M-maybe its new, after all it was in a crater."

"Crater?", Twilight replied before a grin broke out on her face.

"It could be an Extraterrestrial! This is a major break-through of science! Do you know how many scientists are going to be wanting to look at this bird! Oh my god, I can even name it after Celestia!", she said excitedly. Celestia?

"Um, I don't think it'll like that." Fluttershy whispered. I wasn't even paying attention to her conversation, I was more intrigued with the purple barrier surrounding me. I placed my hand as an electrical shock went through eliciting a screech of pain from me. I punched the barrier creating a crack filling me up with another shock of electricity.

"Um, Twilight, I think you should let him out.", Fluttershy whispered before, I nodded my head in agreement. THIS is amazing, not only do I get full control of myself but I'm in a different universe! Entirely....different....universe. Lutece? No, they died when Comstock, ordered their assassination. Eventually the purple barrier disappeared as, I glanced at the purple unicorn/Pegasus below my feet.

"Hi my name is Twilight Sparkle and I'm a studen-", her little sentence was interrupted by a screech I let out in her face. She backed away nervously before I followed her in anger. A yellow figure blocked me.

"Um excuse me. Mr. Bird! I don't think you should do that.", a yellow Pegasus said glancing at the ground occasionally. I brought up a finger in protest before bringing it own in defeat.

"Say, Twilight shouldn't you be on a tri-"

"Not now Spike!", Twilight scolded the purple dragon before facing me.

"Oh, I got so many questions for you!", Twilight finished jumping up and down like an excited child....with a horn....and wings.

They led me to some sort of library castle thingy. We passed by a tree that was burnt down, I glanced at Twilight whose ears were drooping slightly from sorrow. I sat outside as I eavesdropped on their conversation.

"Judging by its test, it has no injury other than its vocal cords being damaged. Which is why it must use chirps, and screeches.", the purple pony said.

"Um, Twilight may I ask. Where are the others?", The yellow Pegasus said. Others?

"Oh. Pinkie Pie is visiting her sisters at the Rock Farm. Rainbow Dash is visiting her father at Cloudsdale. Rarity is seeing how Coco is doing at Manehattan with the fashion line and Applejack is at Appleoosa."

"Listening in on their conversation, huh.", a voice snapped me out of my thoughts. No, I wasn't! I glanced down at the purple dragon below me. A look of sadness painted on his face.

"You're lucky, Twilight is all over you because you're some kind of alien. While I'm just ignored by her. She never has time for me. I asked her if she wants to go hang out but she brushes me off ans says she's busy.", The purple dragon said before tears filled his eyes.

"I used to be her number one assistant but she just said that to make me feel better.", he sniffed as tears started streaming down his face. God damn-it, what do I do? I'm not good with kids! Reaching down reluctantly, I picked up the Baby Dragon before, I embraced him in a hug. Fucking damn-it! This is going to be a long night. Great, this is how I spend my first night. Comforting a Baby Dragon.
