The warrior turned and saw all the species of Equestria look towards him with mixed reactions. He backed away a step and saw as they all faced him.

The warrior only tilted his head confused and was about to say something, until the rainbow Pegasus said

"Alright, start talking! What the hay are you!?"

Crucified angrily removed his mask and roared in her face, causing her to give a look of frozen fear from her facial expression. The girls only backed away in fear as he flared his mandibles and lips.

The crowd of heroes got in fight stances, but as they did, Crucified pressed something on his wrist gauntlet and said in a distorted voice

"What... are...you? What..going ..on...?"

The ponies and their allies all looked around confused as one Hippogriff said

"Well to answer the second question, we are or um...were trying to stop 3 of the most wanted evil villains of Equestria. As for the first question, I'm a hippogriff."

An Griffon then said "Well until you and that other guy that looks like a mix of you and a Pegasus came and killed them and then you 2 had a quarrel, plus I'm a Griffon."

The predator only gave a confused look and said

"...Equestria?....But what this planet, is..this...not..Game Preserve..?" Crucified said

The whole audience was confused even more from the warrior and the purple alicorn said in a confused and surprised tone at such a question.

"Well, to answer that no, this is the planet Equis. The specific place your in right now is Equestria. And what is this Game Preserve?"

Crucified then realized that from the statement that he was not only no longer on the Preserve planet along with the humans, but that Equestria was a different planet compared to it. Deciding he has to get some answers.

"Game Preserve... is...planet....like Equestria...used...by...my....people....to...hunt."

The yellow busty Pegasus in a green sweater said in horror "You hunt for living creatures?!"

This statement horrified the audience, but the Yautja replied.

"Yes and No. Yes...my....people...do, but for tradition and hunt Strong or Weak creatures ...for..honor. No...As...Bad-Bloods....like him....do..to...hurt...living or precious living creatures...like....all...of you."

The crowd only looked in mixes reactions of shock, surprise or even relief at the warrior. Some were even flattered at how he called them "precious".

"What's a Bad-Blood?" The blue Pegasus asked

"He a Bad-blood because he hunts innocent." Crucified replied

"Wait, you mean that other guy you killed was going to KILL us too?!" One dragon said in shock

The warrior only nodded, leaving the audience horrified and disbelieved.

"Well aside from that, what's your name?" The white Alicorn with a flowing mane in a elegant white dress asked

"...Crucified...but..most..call..me...Cross."

"Well Cross, my name is Celestia."

A dark blue alicorn in a blue shirt and black pants also stepped in and said "Thy shall know us as Luna."

"Wait, your an Alicorn!" The purple alicorn noticed as she saw the warriors wings and horn

"...what?..." Crucified asked in confusion

"Hey, she's right!" The dragon noticed as the two other alicorns took notice too.

The white alicorn said "Amazing, never have I once known of a MALE alicorn, let alone of a different species."

The hunter was left confused at records of these equines, he asked "What..is...alicorn?"

The entire crowd was surprised as Twilight answered "An alicorn is a mix of a unicorn and a Pegasus like me and the other Princesses."

Crucified was confused even more, but decided to not dwwell on it and slipped the subject for now.

"Who.. are..you...?" The hunter once again asked

The 6 ponies and dragon also came up to him. The first one to introduce themselves was the purple alicorn in the white blouse and purple pants and shoes said.

"My name is Princess Twilight Sparkle, over there are my friends."

"Ahm Applejack." The blonde, orange coated mare in blue jeans, an orange shirt and go down boots.

"My name is Rarity." The white unicorn in a purple shirt and blue pants and shoes said

I'm...Fluttershy." The yellow Pegasus worth a green sweater and yellow pants meekly said

"I'm Spike." The young dragon wearing a green hoodie, purple pants and shoes said

"Name's Rainbow Dash, fastest flyer of Equestria and soon to be Wonderbolt!" The blue Pegasus in a blue tank top and sports shorts introduced.

"HIMYNAMESPINKIEPIEAMDIVENEVERSEENAPONYLIKEYOUBEFOREANDAREYOUABALUENDOYOULIKEPARTIESOR-" the pink pony in a pink shirt and pants with 3 balloons on the side of her pants said before her mouth was closed by the orange mare.

As the ponies introduced themselves, the warrior then gave a look of worry, which the girls noticed.

"Cross? What's the matter?" Twilight asked

Cross saw the parachutes behind the crowd fall and said "You...all....must...run....NOW.."

The audience was disturbed and surprised at his now serious tone of voice as Applejack said.

"Why? What's wrong?"

Cross points to the parachutes of supplies behind them, which prompts all of the heroes to turn around.

They all noticed the falling objects and crates as Spike said

"What? Those parachuting crates that are falling down here?"

Cross nodded and said in an serious voice "Yes...that...mean...more...Bad-Blood...like...him...coming!"

The whole audience was shocked as he continued "You..must..run...HURRY!"

"No, if they attack our home, then we have to show them that won't happen!" Twilight said in determination.

"Yeah!" Some Pegasi and unicorns cheered and agreed.

Applejack also said "And if they think that we are gonna go down without protecting our home, they should think again!"

"YEAH!" Some of the other heroes said.

"We may not know you, but you did save us from being killed." Twilight said

"Plus you even saved us when the other guy blasted us." Spike reminded

"Yeah, and nobody messes with Equestria on our watch and gets away with it! Right!?" Rainbow Dash said

"YEAH!!!" The entire audience of heroes said.

Crucified saw the heroes defiance at the Bad-Bloods and slowly nodded his head, saying

"..Very...Well."

The heroes got ready and followed the hunter and saw the parachutes of crates land, Crucified put his helmet on and prepared for the hunt. The moment they did. An explosion had suddenly occurred in the Everfree forest.

"What the hay?!" An male unicorn with a blue mane and white coat in purple armor said in surprise.

His answer were two new predators like Cross uncloaking and appearing, but were different.

The first was shown to have light yellow skin and and wear a silver helmet and weapons, with the left side having a large scar running down the too to the cheek. He had no distinct features for a Pegasus or unicorn, but his pony like ears were noticeable, meaning He was an Earth pony.

The second was shown to be dark blue and had scars on his chest and blood red helmet with an additional breath mask. His gear was a dark red color and his hands had surprisingly noticeable blood drops and scratches.

The two pressed buttons on their wrist gauntlets and the first one said

"CRUCIFIED,TIME TO DIE!!!!"
