> Predators: War of Planets > by LoganRyder > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Chapter 1: A Midnight Summer's Death > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Far away, in the galaxy, a large ship was seen flying into an accelerated speed, in were a large number of large tall, human like creatures who were putting on advanced weapons and gear were seen looking at each other and then at one of their one who appeared to look far more older. These creatures were known as yautja The Elder said something and showed something on his mask 3 holograms of three different yautja. One had a tusk helmet, another with a jawed bio mask and the third one with a drone on his arm, which made all the others roar in rage, until they calmed down. Then two had went to the Elder and bowed in honor. The first was shown to be a slightly darker skinned and silver armored yautja known. He was known as Jungle Hunter The second was shown to more colorful skinned and was wearing bronze armor and gear. He was known as City Hunter. The two had been given some new devices on their bio-masks. A specialized type of cloaking device which not only allows them to be invisible, but also allows them to disguise themselves as whichever species they wish as another way of "invisibility". The Elder then pressed something on his wrist and showed the planet Earth and clicked as if saying this was now their next place of hunting the three yautja he revealed were wanted for dishonorable acts of murder. The two nodded as the ship sped in the planet, with the two hunters pressing buttons on their bio-mask to turn them human and then pressed another button for better verbal communication as the Elder then teleported the two to the planet. (Earth, Maretropolis) The city of Maretropolis, a city That was not only very huge but also riddled with crime. This was also the city where the well known heroes, the Power Ponies were it sworn protectors. In a nearby alleyway, the two yautja fell and landed on the ground with a thud. As they both got up. Jungle faced his brother City and said with good yet garbled English "You ok?" City replied with a distorted deep garbled voice "Yes brother, let's move before we are seen." Jungle Hunter nodded and the two activated their cloaks and began to start the hunt by jumping onto the buildings and running. (Later) The two brothers continued to parkour the rooftops until City saw something and said "Brother, I have found something." Jungle followed City and went over to the roof he was on, he saw a building that appeared to look like a bank of a sort and there were 3 of vans parked outside the entrance and a gang of men in ski-masks and weapons were heading inside. "It looks like we found our new prey." Jungle said, with City nodding as the two jumped from the building to the bank roof. As they climbed, Jungle said "I will take the other window, you head to the other." City nodded and the two went in separate directions to ambush their targets (Inside the bank) The robbers were holding everyone hostage and aimed their guns. Ad they did, the door suddenly burst and revealed 6 girls and 1 17 year old boy "Hold it right there scumbags!" The girl with a thunder necklace said "Ah shit it's them!, shoot!" The leader said as they all fired The girls all charged and dodged all the bullets that the thugs had fired and began to pummel them each one by one, as they did, the young boy managed to knock out two with his staff and a roundhouse kick to the head. However he was unaware he was being observed by an unseen figure, who locked onto him and then the leader. The observer watched as the robbers were arrested and taken away, until the leader said "I'm not going to jail!" And then he attacked the young sidekick with a knife "Hum-drum!" The girls said The leader's head was suddenly ripped off, leaving the heroes and cops horrified while the cloaked figure only fled the scene to ensure no suspicion was found "What the hell?!" The goggle wearing girl said in confusion and shock "That wasn't me I swear!" Hum-drum justified, yet the cops only looked a but unconvinced since he was covered in blood. The figure before leaving turned to the young sidekick and looked at him, flashing yellow eyes at him before leaving Hum-Drum saw the eyes and only gave a look of shock and confusion and muttered "What the?" (Outside) Jungle and City observed the scene and City said "We're too late, one of the Bad-Bloods must've beat us to it." Jungle replied "And something tells me it was Falconer, he may be one, but he has more morality then his brethren," City only nodded as he and Jungle ran to continue their hunt for their enemy. (Power Ponies HQ) The girls and Hum-Drum were in the headquarters and in the planning room as the girls looked at their sidekick, who was only confused and shocked as they were "Spike what happened?" Twilight asked "I don't know, I just knocked him out, then he attacked and his head was ripped off and-" Spike said in confusion and stuttered, but was cut off by Rainbow who said "Spike, you were there, you saw and did it, you need to tell us what happened." "I did tell you, why won't you believe me?!" He raised his voice in dismay Twilight said "Don't you use that voice with me young man!" "No, I've been trying to prove my worth anytime and everytime and none of you act as if I'm worth it, I think it's best if you just leave me alone seeing as how you each look down on me." "Don't try and change the subject Spike!" Twilight said The girls were left shocked as Fluttershy said "Spike, we would never look down on you." "Yes you would, you do it every time and anywhere and whenever I help, I get no respect from you whatsoever whenever I would stop someone." "Stand down Spike!" Zapp said in a pleading like tone "Or what?, you'll send to my room?!, I'm not a kid anymore! I thought I was an partner...but not this time." Spike said and gave a hard glare The girls eyes widened as Twilight said "What do you mean Spike?" "I mean, you guys always make me feel down and like I'm useless and I'm DONE! I'm DONE putting up with Fluttershy treating me like an tool. Rainbow and Pinkie act like I'm their tool for homework or pranks. Rarity and Applejack act like I'm useless and have no purpose and you just use me everyone while you go hang out with friends and don't even thank me for helping out!" Spike said "Spike, we would never do that!" Zapp protested "Yes you would, in fact just yesterday, you and Pinkie pranked my by covering me with cupcakes and pastries during an assembly." The other 4 glared at the 2 in dismay, with the 2 sheepishly laughing. "And now you say you can trust me when I showed you guys enough proof to show it wasn't me. Like the photo and the footage. Yet you still don't think I can be trusted." "Spike, we do trust you it's-" Matterhorn said, but was cut off The boy's outburst left the girls in shock as he said "I think it's best I return the favor." The boy sat up and removed his mask and cape in disgust and threw them on the ground in anger and left the base, leaving the girls shocked in disbelief as he walked away in bitter resentment. "Did he just quit?" Pinkie asked The others only nodded and gave looks of sorrow as he left in silence. With Twilight looking in shock, Rainbow Dash in disbelief, Applejack in worry, Fluttershy with pity and Pinkie with sadness. > Chapter 2: School Blues > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike had quit, the Power Ponies were not with him anymore, he had enough of the neglect that he went through and chose to stop being friends with them. He was walking to school from a secret hideout he made near the dump and packed some food and his school supplies. He reached his school Canterlot High and entered with a scowl. Spike was getting a few glares from males but also a few looks of pity at his state. He didn't answer and merely went to class. The teacher Ms.Cheerilee had seen her student and said "Spike, Good Morning." "Hi teacher." Spike glumly said Cheerilee gave a look of worry and confusion at the boy who sat at the far back, but she decided to ignore it for now as the remaining classmates went in, with Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy being amongst them. They sat next to Spike, who in turn went all the way to the middle front in silence The teacher began to teach the class as usual, with Spike writing his notes per usual. As he did, he noticed that a note had been handed over to him, as he saw it, it said "We're sorry.". Spike only gave a look of dismay and threw it away, with Rainbow only giving a look of sadness while Fluttershy only cried a few tears. The lesson continued as the class listened to the teacher and continued to work. (Outside) Jungle and City were seen outside and began to try to enter the school. "Are you sure this is the right place?" "Yes, he was attacked and he may be a target along with those other oomans." The two jumped onto the roof and started to climb up. As they went up, Jungle reached the top and opened a window to a nearby room that was empty with lights turned off. City came in and joined the room also. "Ready?" City asked Jungle nodded and the two turned on their human disguises and began their hunt incognito. Jungle had a normal male face and green skin and on his head his hairlocks, luckily for him his gear turned into silver clothes and shoes . City was the same except he wore bronze clothes and shoes and his skin was more colored and lighter. (Lunch) Spike had went to a separate table away from the girls and sat alone. As he ate, a few students gave him looks of pity while most males only gave satisfied looks now that he was away from the girls and a few made a move on Rainbow Dash "Hey Rainbow hair, wanna hang instead of with the green little rat?" A jock flirted with Rainbow Dash The irked rainbow haired girl got up and pummeled the guy with a fist to the face and then a savage kick to his groin "Anything else you wanna try shitstick?!" RD said The guy only shaked his head and scurried away from her and the girls and the other boys followed as well. Spike was eating his salad alone with a grim look. "Um excuse me?" A voice next to Spike said The boy turned and saw the two human Jungle and City looking at him and said "Can I help you?" "We were wondering if we could sit here?" Spike said "Knock yourselves out." The two brothers sat down next to the boy and ate their food, this didn't go unnoticed by Twilight and her friends as Twilight asked in confusion "Who are those two?" The girls looked and saw Spike with the two and Rainbow Dash said "The school never mentioned male transfer students." Back with the 3 boys, Jungle asked Spike "So...what's your name?" "Spike Drake." "My name is Forest." Forest/Jungle said "I'm Urban." "Mmm, I don't think I've seen you two here before, are you two new?" Spike asked "Yes, we transferred from LA." Urban replied Forest held out his hand and shaked Spike's hand and Urban did also, The two looked at one another as Urban said "So you ok? You look a little down." "No." Spike simply replied "What is the matter?" Forest asked "Me and my friends had an argument. And then I stopped trying to see or talk to them today." The two gave looks of pity at the poor boy, they may have been yautja, but a child being hurt, this was what every honorable warrior like the duo hated the most in their planet. Urban, with a sudden idea said "How about you hang out with us?" "What?" Spike asked "You did say that these friends of yours had a falling out, so how about me, Forest and you hang out after your have spare time." "Really?" Spike asked in hope "Of course." Urban said Spike, with a smile said in happiness "Sure thing." The three nodded and continued to eat their lunch together, with Twilight and her friends left shocked that the Spike has not only befriended two other males, but that he appeared to actually be having more fun with them then he had with themselves. Before the girls could get up and confront the 3, the bell had rang, meaning lunch was now over. "I'll see you two outside the entrance of school." Spike said "We'll be there." Forest acknowledged The 3 went their separate ways and went along to go at their locations, Spike with his last class and the two to continue to watch and observe him to see if the Bad-Bloods would have found him. (Outside, 2 hours later) Spike had went outs8de the school now that class was over for today, he was waiting for Forest and Urban to arrive and they eventually did. "Hey guys, what took so long?" Spike asked "We had some trouble with the halls but we managed." Forest said Spike nodded and the two went with each other to the mall. They saw an arcade and went in and looked at all the games and prizes that could be won. "This place is huge!" Urban complimented "Yeah, it's one of my favorite places to hang." Spike replied The three went to a few games and played alot and received alot of tickets. As they played a crash was heard and to the horror of Spike, three new figures came in The first was a girl that appeared to be an young child, but she was wearing a prissy little dress and her at blue locked and curly hair similar to Darla Dimple. This was Cozy Glow The second was a large muscular man that had a nice piercing and a white beard, he also had reddish skin and black clothing and silver shoes. He was Tirek The last was a beautiful yet evil looking woman with black skin, dark blue hair, green insect like ckithjng and boots and evil gleaming green eyes. She was known as Chrysalis "The legion of Doom!" Spike said in horror The two yautja humans were confused as Cozy said "Its time for your destruction, isn't that fun?" Chrysalis added "All the world's love will be mine!" "Lets do it!" Tirek said with a smirk The 3 began to launch blasts of energy alk around the building as civilians ran off in terror. Spike was running while the two brothers turned to their real forms and roared, ready to fight. "Hold it right there!" An all too familiar voice shouted The turned and saw none other then the Power Ponies, who got on battle stances "Well well if it isn't the goody good Power Powers!" Cozy mocked "This time, WE WILL DESTROY YOU!!" Chrysalis said with rage "Bring it on!" Matterhorn said They both clashed one another and attacked each two by two. Applejack and Rainbow with Cozy, Twilight and Rarity with Tirek and Fluttershy and Pinkie with Chrysalis As they fought, Spike was hiding and watching the dual. He signed over how he was no longer a hero and stayed there, until a blast knocked him out. Suddenly the lights went out. "Huh?!" "What the hell?!" Zapp asked The lights were back on, and the 3 villains were found on the ceiling flayed, with Tirek's head and Chrysalis's head ripped out. And Cozy's body was not only decapitated, but also personally defaced. "OH MY GOD!!" The girls all shouted in fright at the gruesome sight. Spike had woken up and saw he was covered in blood befire suddenly being knocked out by a hit on the head, before falling, he could've sworn he saw the same yellow eyes from the previous day before losing consciousness. > Chapter 3: Greetings > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike was slowly beginning to wake up from his slumber and slowly began to open his eyes, he saw he was inside some sort of medical room. He attempted to move, but he was restrained. He looked and saw his arms and legs were both strapped onto the table and he was trapped. He looked around and saw the dark fog around the room and heard a door open. The person, or in this case alien, was the leader, the GreyBack Predator along with a few other brethren of his own Spike was now completely horrified, once he was back on his planet hiding from the Legion of Doom, then at once he was now strapped to a table surrounded by aliens. The yautja warriors all circled Spike, and they all began to rip apart his clothing and examine his body, much to the boys embarrassment. "Hey, watch it!" Spike said, as one female felt his crotch The female growled at him in his face, then continued when he backed off as she continued to examine him while the males examined his chest and face. As they examined him, the boy saw one yautja pull a syringe with a green liquid out of his pocket. "Wait, what are you doing?" The boy asked, but the syringe hit his neck. The boy then passed out as the green substance traveled in his body. (An hour later) The boy woke up and saw his body was cleaned and healed by yautja who were cleaning his wounds and injuries. After they were done, the straps were undone and the boy was freed, but the moment he got up, be was held by the eldest Predator and escorted to another room The moment they reached into the room, 3 other yautja came in, one revealed himself to be an old ancient elder with a cape and spear, while the other two were the Jungle and City Hunters. "What the hell?" The two went to Spike, and City said in his human voice "Hello Spike" "How do you know my name?" "We've watched you for a while, even in your time for school." Jungle replied "What?" "We also know you are the one known as Hum-Drum." "Wha-How did you know that?!" The two replied by turning into their human forms. "Urban and Forest?" "Yes Spike, we came as we need your help with an urgent matter you must not tell anybody." "What do you mean urgent?" City replied by pressing something on his wrist and revealed a video, it was the event at the bank that happened last Monday. Spike than said "Wait, stop there." City did and Spike then pointed to something and it was an invisible figure flashing yellow eyes "That's the weird thing I saw look at me!" City acknowledged his statement "Yes, it is a Bad-blood, we fear he may harm innocents and we need your help to kill him." "It is gravely urgent he be stopped and pay for his crimes not just to our race, but to yours." Spike was baffled, one moment he believed he was dreaming, then he was now being asked to kill someone not of this world." "Kill, wait I can't kill him." "Why?" Jungle asked confused "Because that's wrong and it would make me more worse then him." "No it wouldn't" City replied "He has done so many bad things, he needs to be put to an end." "What kind of bad things?" Jungle and City looked at each other then to the Elder, who nodded and the two pressed their wrist gauntlets and showed something to the green haired teen. What he saw was terrible and miserable, there were dead bodies of both humans and aliens alike everywhere and everything was nothing but sadness and destruction. The boy was left petrified and shocked at the massive amounts of deaths and atrocities these criminals had done. "Do you understand now?" "Yeah, it's just....I've never killed before." Spike confessed "I understand. It will take time, but we will train you." City said "What do I have to do?" Spike said, now fueled with determination and ready "First we must train you on how to use our weapons." Jungle said "Follow." The Elder said and escorted the boy to the next room. The room was full of weapons, armor, masks and specialized melee weapons. Spike took a look and grabbed a bio-mask with a 3 dotted target on the side, a Combi-Stick, two Wrist-blades, and a speargun. He was then led to a training room full of boxing bags, undo stocks and much more equipment The young boy trained with the hunters for hours and was repeatedly knocked down because of his hesitation. He continued until he saw that if he didn't step up, he would never get better. That's when his burning determination helped train with their weapons. From male to range, Glaive to Combi-stick and mask to mask, he got the hang of it. As he laid to rest on his back, Jungle and the Elder went over to him as he got up. He was even given info about the honor code they followed such as never harm any innocent or children, only fight fair if the opponent shows incredible skill and never ever harm another yautja unless a Bad-Blood. The boy eventually had gotten used to the kill thing and began to move away from its effect on him, but it would still haunt him. "Lets do this." Spike said, ready to begin the hunt "The hunt we will send you on is a training mission." The Elder pressed the button on the ship controls and the three were then engulfed in a bright light and disappeared. (Earth, Power Ponies HQ) The 6 girls were looking at a screen in their HQ and were searching for anything the had to do with the bank attack and the mall incident. "This doesn't make sense, first a guy was decapitated and then 3 more were flayed." Zapp complained "Plus in the mall it couldn't have been Spike, he was hiding, I saw him inside the arcade room." Radiance notified Matterhorn was still looking on the screen and said "Plus I don't think Hum-Drum- I mean Spike could handle it if he were to skin nor rip somebody's head." Mare-velous said "True, plus even if he were to, I think we would know." The girls continued to look at the screen, until Matterhorn saw something "Girls!, take a look at this." The other 5 heroines went to their leader and saw the screen separately from the incidents. The left showed the mall while the right showed the bank. "I've been looking at the areas and I found another kind of clue that may show Spike may not be our culprit." She first went to the mall picture and it showed the dark room when the lights were turned off. It showed the area was completely black except in one corner, yellow flashes were seen. "What is that?" Saddle Rager asked in fright "And take a look at the bank picture." Matterhorn pressed a few buttons and zoomed on the leader being decapitated while Hum-Drum was near and coated in his blood. She played the video in slow motion and the same yellow flashes came from an invisible figure, which the girls all saw and Matterhorn pressed a few buttons, revealing the invisible figure to be to her shock, a tall humanoid like person wearing a mask. "What the hell is that?" Zapp said in shock "That looks nothing like a human." Filli-Second commented "I looked through the records on him, there's nothing." Matterhorn said The alarm then went off, signaling the girls too come and save the day "Trouble, everyone get ready!" Matterhorn said (Mane-iac's lair) The Mane-iac was readying her new plot and henchman to personally take care of not just the world, but also her main enemy. "Be careful fools!, this time when I spread my new spray of hairspray, I will finally be able to make the world bow to my feet. AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" As the villainess was preparing her new plot, she was unaware she was being watched by 3 figures. "This is your first test. Are you ready?" Jungle said "Let's show this hairy maniac the meaning of style." Spike said The three then activated their cloaks, readying their weapons for their hunt. > Chapter 4: Mark of the Warrior > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The three hunters had began their hunt and jumped down. Jungle was on the left, City was on the right and Spike was in the middle as they each began to pick off the guards one by one. "I can't believe we're doing this shit." A henchman said "I know, the boss lady started to act crazy when the other scum of this city began to lose their heads." The other henchman said The two were suddenly impaled at the same time by a cloaked Spike and Jungle while City was on lookout. As they continued, they saw the villainess was ready to begin her plan, Spike said to his two comrades. "Stay here and be on lookout, I'll deal with her." The two nodded as Spike silently began to stalk her. Mane-iac suddenly said in frustration "What is taking those idiots so long, I tell them to do one job!" The hair themed villain went to look for her guards, but saw that nobody was inside the building but herself. "Hello?!" She cried, but there was no response. Spike saw the distracted villainess and shot his Speargun right at her. The flying projectile then instantly blew a hole through the shocked villain's chest and she fell on the ground. The former sidekick then went to her corpse and took her head off with his wrist-blade and removed the skin and put the now clean skull on his holster. The roof of the building suddenly blew and in came none other then the Power Ponies. "Lets do this!" Matterhorn said, but stopped upon seeing the right of no guards or villain. Spike turned and saw the girls and thought "(Dammit!, I gotta distract them somehow!)" Spike saw a nearby explosive barrel and fired his speargun at it. The projectile and the explosive object mixed and there was an explosion that rocked the floor, the young hero then used the smoke to cover his escape. Jungle, City and Spike left the building and cloaked away. (Inside the building) The girls were confused as to where the danger was "Um, where are the villains?" Rager asked confused Matterhorn was a little suspicious and said "Split up, this could be a trap." "Um Matterhorn, I think that's not true." Zapp said "What do you mean?" Zapp pointed behind her and the girls saw the dead body of Mane-iac hanging on the ceiling without her head. "We're too late." Matterhorn said in dismay "He must've beat us to it." Mare-velous said However , unbeknownst to the Power Ponies, they were being watched by an unknown figure. The figure watched them converse and as they did, he pressed a button on his mask and sound waves showed on his visor. The girls continued to converse as the police arrived and spoke with them about what happened. They spoke to the main officer Flash Sentry "Hello Power Ponies." "Hello officer." Matterhorn said slightly blushing "What the hell happened here?" "We don't know but it may be related to the incidents at the mall and bank." Rager said Flash then went over to an officer who whispered something in his ear. He turned to the girks and said "Whoever he is, he doesn't mess around, we just found another dead villain killed the same way. " "Who?" Zapp asked "Do you remember Nighthawk?" "Yeah?" The girls all said "I just got word her base was not only trashed and vandalized, but all the guards and her were murdered the same way as the Mane-iac and her henchman. There was even a large symbol on her base made in blood." "Wait...Do you think this culprit of ours may be an vigilante?" Matterhorn asked "What do you mean?" Flash asked "Think about it. The villains of the city are the victims plus any innocents weren't hurt and we weren't the targets either." "She raises a good point, but how are we going to be able to catch them?" Filli-second asked Matterhorn only smiled and huddled with the girls and brought Flash in too, unknowingly pressing her breasts into his right cheek and Filli-Second's on his left . Flash blushed and said in his thoughts "Don't be a perv! (With the hunters and Spike) The 3 warriors were heading to the ship after they had just killed 2 villains, Spike with the Mane-iac and the brothers with Nighthawk. "It was one hunt right Jungle?" "Yes brother, what about you Spike?" "Shhh!" "What's the matter?" "We can't say my real name. I need a new one that could hide my identity." "Why?" Jungle asked "Because people are gonna know it's me and that's bad. You guys are ok since you two are good at using human forms." "Mmm. How about Shadow Hunter. You do use the shadows to defeat your prey in hunts." City Hunter creatively said The two looked at him and Spike said with a smile "Yeah, let's get home." The 3 began to head to the ship. But as they did a scream was heard. "What was that?" Hunter asked and used his mask to see where the scream came from. "Spi-Hunter, what are you doing?" "Helping someone." "But-" "I'll catch up, don't worry." Hunter said and the two nodded Hunter parkoured to another roof and looked in an alleyway. He saw 3 familiar figures being harassed by 8 males in black suits "Come on Babe, you know you want it" the one touching the blue ponytail girl "Stop please!" The girl said The purple pigtails haired girl tried to fight them, but was overwhelmed and one held her back while the one in front of her licked her face. "Let me go you disgusting fuck!" The yellow poofy haired girl with a spikey headband was pushed on the wall and the thug was trying to pull her pants down showing her humongous ass. He pulled down his pants and showed his raging excitement. Hunter was enraged and activated his cloak and Wrist-blades. He jumped and impaled 2 of the thugs, decapitated the other 2 and impaled the one holding the pig tail girl and shot his speargun at the other 3, blowing them away into nothing but corpses with holes. Hunter uncloaked and revealed himself to the 3 girls. They were shocked, scared and surprised at his appearance and cowered, but Hunter just looked and said "Are you 3 ok?" The 3 girls saw the young hero look and suddenly hugged him. "Thank you." The Blue haired girl said They eventually let him go and he asked "Who are you 3?" The girls then looked at him and the first one was the blue haired girl "I'm Sonata Dusk. " "Names Aria." The pigtails girl said "I am known as Adagio Dazzle." The yellow haired girl introduced "And we are the Dazzlings!" All three said Hunter was left amazed at the 3 not because of their beauty, but in this case cause as Spike he knew them from school and they were the 3 girls with the beautiful voices that were often flirted with by other guys, but they rejected them cause they only wanted a piece of them and both for them as a person. Hunter looked at them and asked "Why are you three here?" "We...were trying to get some money and we stole and we used this alleyway to escape but they found us." Adagio said "Plus if we don't pay the rent, we'll be evicted." Sonata slumped Shadow, with a look of pity under his mask asked "How much is the rent?" "We have $800 but we need 200 more, we work as karaoke singers as a part time job." Hunter pulled out 2 100 dollar bills and handed them to the girls. "Here, you two should need this more then me." Hunter kindly said The 3 were left shocked and Aria asked "Your giving this to us?" "It's what heroes do." "But-" Adagio said "It's ok, plus I hope we can hang soon." Shadow turned and was about to leave, but Adagio grabbed his wrist and said "Wait!,..Who are you?" "I am Shadow Hunter." The 3 looked at him and Aria and Sonata kissed his masks cheeks while Adagio pulled the mask up a bit and kissed his lips. She put the mask down and Hunter asked "Do you want me to take you home?" "That would be very helpful." Adagio acknowledged Hunter nodded and said "Give me a sec." The 3 nodded and Hunter pressed a button on the mask "Jungle, I'm gonna be a little late, I'll come back ASAP." "OK, be safe warrior." Jungle said on his message Hunter nodded and turned to the 3 girls and picked them up. Sonata held bridal style and Aria and Adagio on his back and asked "Where do you live?" "There." Sonata pointed and Spike lunged and jumped one by one at the destination. After he reached the waypoint, the girls were heading in and Aria and Sonata went in, but Adagio turned to Hunter "Thank you again." "It's alright, just doing my job." "Hey, before you go and if you have some time." Adagio suddenly pulled out a was of paper and a pen and wrote on it and handed it to Hunter, he looked at it as Adagio said "Here's my number hero, if you feel a bit lonely or wanna hang, give me a call~" Hunter blushed and said "Thanks." Hunter turned to leave and before he did, he turned and saw Adagio walking inside the building turn to him with a seductive smile and slap her humongous booty, causing it to jiggle and ripple and blew an air kiss to him, which Hunter caught and he left to go to his hideout. > Chapter 5: Who Dunnit? > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike and his allies were seen in the ship and the clan and the Elder each faced them as the 3 hunters were praised or acknowledged by their brethren, while Spike only awkwardly waved with a smile, with a few females blowing kisses or doing suggestive poses at him. The Elder faced the 3 and pressed his wrist gauntlet and clicked his mandible and at the same time, his words were translated "You have shown yourself to be a worthy a notable warrior Spike." "Shadow Hunter," "Pardon?" The Elder asked "My name is Shadow Hunter when I hunt. When I don't I'm Spike." "Very well. But for now I refer to real name." Spike nodded as he continued and said "You show strength, honor, determination and bravery when you hunted the most dangerous prey and evil, you may not have found the Bad-Bloods but you show your desire to stop them. For that, you are now rewarded, a Shuriken." Spike was brought to the Elder by two female predators and the Elder pulled out shuriken like weapon, the Elder pulled out a glove and motioned for Spike to show his hand. He put the glove on his left hand and said whike handing the weapon "When you throw with this weapon, you must use the hand with the glove, and hold it out, that way you can catch it." "Thank you...?" "You may refer to me as GreyBack." Spike nodded and was about to leave, but GreyBack said "By the way, may I see your mask?" Spike pulled off the mask and GreyBack took it and put something on the corner of the facial visor. "This feature I added not only adds power to the disk, but also grants a new vision instead of thermal sights. You have shown great skill young warrior." The yautja, along with the brothers had roared and clicked their mandibles with cheer and acknowledgement at the boy Spike was smiling not just because of the praise, But because of the fact that for once he was actually being treated like a normal friend for once in his life and was not being used or abused not just from the girls but from the public in general. With a look of happiness, Spike bowed to the Elder in respect and turned to the brothers and said with determination "Come on guys, we got a city to save." The two nodded and put their gear on, until a nearby clan member said "Master, I found something!" The aliens turned to the warrior, so led them to a large control room and it showed a large screen and controls with different symbols in dashes. The screen showed a warehouse like building which was filled with alot of armed thugs. "What is this Spear?" GreyBack asked Spear in turn pressed a button and revealed inside the building with enhanced thermal vision, more thugs and on the ceiling another predator in cloak mode. There were also 6 familiar figures, 3 hiding on the catwalks and 3 behind a few crates. "I found a Bad-Blood in this building." "Wait, can you zoom on those figures in the corners?" Spear did so and pressed an button to clear the shadows, revealing it was none other then the Power Ponies. "What are those 6 nuisances doing there?" City asked "I guess I'm gonna have to find out." Spike said and donned his gear and new weapon "Your going alone?" Jungle asked "I have to, it's me they want. So I'm gonna let em get it. Plus you guys can't risk exposing yourselves with that many soldiers." "He's right, it's part of our code." "May the hunt be with you brother." The Elder said Spike left the ship using the teleportation device near the controls and zapped away. (Earth, Maretropolis) The Power Ponies were awaiting the signal, the thugs were in place and the area was thoroughly in and out guarded. "Are you sure this'll work Matterhorn?" Zapp asked "I'm positive, we just need to wait for the right moment." The lead heroine said Outside of the building. It was a cold midnight and the wind omniously blew as the guards outside patrolled the front and back entrance, On the roof was Shadow Hunter, he was watching the guards around the area and scanned them. He saw on his visor Shining Armor Relatives: Twilight Sparkle, Night Light, Twilight Velvet, Mi Amore Cadenza, Flurry Heart Blood type: O- Occupation: Maretropolis Police Department Age: 25 Rank: Sergeant Zephyr Breeze Relatives: Fluttershy, Mr. Shy and Mrs. Shy Blood type: A+ Occupation: Maretropolis Police Department Age: 21 Rank: Rookie Shadow Hunter looked at his visor and saw to his surprise the names and said "Oh crap!, Twilight and Fluttershy's brothers are in on this too?! I need to make sure I scan the guards to make sure they are evil or not." The boy continued to progress his hunt by slowly cutting a hole in the skylight and slowly crawling in the building. It was an guarded complex, the whole area was flooded with "robbers" armed to the teeth and continuing to scout for any suspicious behaviour. Spike landed on the catwalk slowly began to pacify the guards when he finished scanning the personnel and learned they were all really police officers. Just as he could scan more, he saw something on the ceiling and it was to his surprise, another predator. He watched and the alien jumped down in cloak form suddenly fired an spear at an crate, which exploded when a grenade pin was pulled and burned a few officers, who were startled by the ruckus "NOW!!" The Power Ponies jumped and attacked the figure, who's form was seen in the smoke, and attacked on any way they could. Zapp with her necklace, Matterhorn with her ice ability, Mare-velous with her lasso and good kicks with her thick long legs (with her tight superhero suit tightening around her large jiggling buttocks), Filli-Second with her speed and Radiance with her object creation. The alien was brutally slashed or hit all around and tried to fend off his enemy, but hevwas surrounded all around the corners and was knocked into a corner, covered in green, glowing blood. The girls went to the beaten creature and it's cloak form faded, Zapp grabbed a nearby pipe and was about to hit him. But Matterhorn stopped her. "What's going on?" an voice said, revealing himself as Flash "See for yerself." Marvelous said The girls and their officer ally went to the wounded alien and saw him cough in pain and looked in shock or surprise, whike Shadow Hunter watched from the catwalk in cloak mode and said "That's the Bad-blood they showed me." As the girls and Flash looked, Flash asked the alien in confusion "What the hell are you?" The predator only looked at him and said in a distorted version of Spike's voice "WHAT...the...HELL..are...YOU??" The 7 were only confused as he then pressed something on his wrist and the moment he stopped pressing, the device started to rapidly beep as the alien started laughing in Spike's voice again. The 7 gave looks of shock or horror when Matterhorn, catching on to what the alien did said "EVERYONE RUN!!" At the same time, Shadow Hunter witnessed the scene and ran away in shock upon seeing what he did. He managed to run to a safe and far distance and the moment he did, an big explosion engulfed the building and a far vicinity of the area, with his maniacal laugh still heard. Although the young Hunter managed to avoid the blast, he was blown to a nearby walk and knocked down on an roof of the building as he jumped and parkoured. "Uh..Dammit." Hunter said as he looked at the demolished building and the city police and ambulances came and helped the injured. "Shit." Hunter said, knowing his hunt was now more complicated > Chapter 6: A New Threat? > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- After what happened, Spike was in the cafeteria and eating alone, he saw all the students talking about the explosion from yesterday. They each speculated that it was a bomb or an pure coincidence. Spike was meanwhile eating alone without Jungle and City due to them being busy aiding in tracking for more Bad-Bloods that were in the city. As he ate, he heard a female voice clear her throat and turned and saw none other then Twilight and the other girls looking at him Spike, with a distasteful look said "Can I help you?" The girls only gave looks of sadness as Rarity said "We deserve that." There was an awkward silence, with a few boys giving looks of envy at the boy as the 6 girls spoke to him. "Spike, we're all here because we're all sorry." Twilight said "We didn't mean to keep hurting you so much and ignore you all your life. I mean i even regret on how i kept hurting you like a ragdoll all the time with Applejack." Rainbow added "I'm deeply sorry I ignored you to the point where I didn't treat you as an equal like I did with Twilight." Fluttershy added with a tearful look "I'm really sorry for being a meanie-pants and for not inviting you to my parties and for how me and Dashie always prank you to the point where you end up feeling sad and embarrassed." Pinkie said with regret. Applejack was next and said with an apologetic tone "And I'm sorry that I never saw that you were able to so much Spike, you really were able to keep us each from not breaking our friendship with each other. You even helped me on the farm yet I never show any appreciation." The last ones to come up was Rarity and Twilight, with Spike only looking at them with disdain as Rarity went first and said sadly "Spikey-Wikey, I'm really sorry that everything we did to you was causing you to suffer so much turmoil and depression, if there were anything we could do that could make it right I would do it." Twilight was the last, she had tears in her eyes and said "And I'm truly sorry for how I've been treating you all these years, from your childhood to your teen years I've done nothing but use you your whole life and make you lose your self-confidence and now show you the respect you deserve. I'm truly truly very sorry like the rest of the us. Mom, Dad and Shining all miss you not being home." Spike was only looking at them and the whole cafeteria looked at the 6 popular girls with the boy only glaring at their pleas and showed nothing but contempt. Spike, with a look of disinterest said "I'm going to class." "The bell hasn't even rung yet." Rarity said "Don't care, leave me alone." Spike said "Spike, come on we just-" Twilight said grabbing his wrist The boy now snapped, and thus with a angry look...punched Twilight on the cheek. The whole audience was frozen, one of the most popular girls has just been punched in the face by somebody she wronged. The girls were left shocked and gasped as the boy walked away out of the cafeteria. It was the last class for today and Spike was leaving to do another patrol of the city, as he walked, he saw a few students giving him looks of fear or disappointment. The boy was still angry and simply continued to do his new routine. He went to the secret location of the yautja ship and was about to board. The Elder saw Spike and said "Hello young warrior." "Hi GreyBack, what's the mission today?" Spike asked "For now we have not been able to find any other Bad-Bloods yet. How has your hunt been?" Spike said "A little good but now that the girls are in on it, I have to find a way to deal with them too." "Why do you not kill them?" "They're still technically kids, if I do that then I'm still breaking the code." "..Very well. Has there been any other things to know of?" GreyBack asked "Aside from the crime rate reducing, I guess I have to say that the Bad-Bloods are targeting not just me, but the girls. Because last night-" "I know, that was Tracker, he must've been sent to try and capture either you or the other girls that were in the area, before he committed suicide. He is a Bad-Blood because he not only fights using hounds to aid him and hunts with cowardice and attacks before showing himself to fight one on one." "I see, but why didn't he have any hounds on him at that time?" "We managed to send them back to our home, but we killed a few as they were too devoted to him." "By the way...just a little quick question." "Yes?" "Well..." The boy was now donning his predator gear and jumping roof to roof to his waypoint, he managed to reach his location after a long amount of time. It was the one place he left, the one place he felt unequal to and was treated harshly. The HQ of the Power Ponies. The young Hunter looked with disdain at his former home and began to jump on the building window, he pulked out the head of the Mane-iac and began to spray the building with her red blood a symbol. He then began to deface the statue that had all 6 of the girls with the same red symbol. The apartment motel, the same one where 3 familiar girls had lived,Spike was now in his gear and right now was Shadow Hunter. He secretly jumped on the roof and typed the number on his mask. As he waited, a voice was heard "Hello, who is this?" "Hey Adagio, you miss me?" Hunter asked "Oh! You again, it's been days. I've been missing you Hunter." "I know, I'm coming to visit, if that's ok." Shadow said "I'll be waiting for you hero." Adagio said in a flirty tone "I know." Hunter said The call ended and Spike secretly climbed to the window of their apartment and secretly opened the window. He was in a medium sized bedroom and saw Adagio sitting on her bed. He tapped her shoulder and she turned with a surprised look and saw him. The beautiful yellow poofy haired girl said "Well, it looks like you were quick." "I know." "So, when are you gonna tell me anything.....Spike?" The boys eyes widened (Meanwhile, with the girls) The girls were shocked at their base being defaced, they each had different reactions. Rainbow Dash was angry, Fluttershy was shocked with horror at the blood, Applejack was more infuriated, Pinkie Pie was scared, Rarity was disgusted at the gruesome symbol and Twilight was shocked and angry all at once." "Who did this!?!?" Rainbow Dash asked with fury "If I catch the varmint that did this, he is gonna wish he called himself a girl!!" Applejack shouted "Let's check if the ruffians did anything inside." Rarity said with anger The girls nodded and checked the inside, and all the things seem to be in place. The controls, cameras, transport and supplies and weapons were all intact. Twilight checked the main computer and began to look into the cameras. "What are you doing Twilight?" Fluttershy asked curiously "To see who our practical joker really is." She answered She continued to press buttons and saw the outside camera feed. After a few hours it showed static and then showed the defaced base and status, but during the static, a lone figure was seen. That was Shadow Hunter using the head of the Mane-iac to paint the symbol. "Wait..is that Mane-iac's head?!" Rarity asked The others only nodded and saw the statue being defaced next. After the video feed was over, the girls only looked at the culprit with looks of anger. "Who does this asshole think he is?!" Rainbow asked "More importantly, how did he sabotage the cameras. Twi said only we have access to them" Applejack said "Yeah we do. Along with Spike." Twilight said, saying the last part in shock and realization. The girls jaws dropped as Pinkie asked "Wait. So Spike is that meanie that did this to our base?" "I'm not sure for sure, but he sure looked angry at looking at our home. It could be him but that guy in the armor is almost as taller as Spike." Twilight said "Plus if Spike were to do it, why is his gear looking like that creepy alien guy from yesterday?" Rainbow added The girls agreed as Twilight and the girls put on their superhero uniforms and Twilight said "It looks like we have a new enemy or friend girls. " They then began to look at the footage. Questioning who the masked and unknown anti-hero was > Chapter 7: Favors? > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike was shocked that the girl that he had saved knew his secret identity. He then tried to deny it by saying "Um...what are you talking about?" "Spike, I know that's you." Hunter groaned and revealed himself to the girl and said "How did you know?" "I know because when I touched your lips, I felt the scent that was familiar to yours whenever I walked by you." "Look you cannot tell this to-" "I know I won't tell anybody." "Oh thank you." "Unless you do something for me." "What?!" Spike said in dismay "Oh relax, it's just a small thing." "Alright what is it?" Spike questioned Adagio pulled out a paper and said "Read this." Things I need 1.A tight version of Applejack's shirt and jeans 2.. A red crucifix that is in the Maretroplis Police station 3. A gem found in the CHS lost and found. Spike was blushing at the first one but was confused at the last 2 and said "Why do you need these?" "Well for the first it's a little thing I like to call change and for the second two....let's just say you'll like the surprise I'll have when I have them." Spike then blushed and moved his head and said "So I do this and you won't tell anybody else?" "You have my word." Spike then blushed a little and nodded, putting on his mask and leaving through the window. But before leaving, he asked Adagio "How much time do I have?" "You have until midnight at 12:00." Spike nodded and left The MPD, the base when the police of the city watch over the citizens along with the Power Ponies. Inside the building was where all the cops were doing their daily routines. Spike managed to climb the building outside and see a window and scanned for the artifact. He saw it in the restricted area and secretly uses the window to enter the building. As he went in, he saw a cop in the desk asleep and kilked the lights. "What the fuck?!" The cop said, only to be punched unconscious as Spike removed his gear and put it in his bag and put the cops uniform on. Spike continued to make his way into the station until he saw the restricted area. He saw the crucifix inside a large glass bowl and was to that there were alot of lasers and 4 guards in the way. With that, Spike used his Shuriken to deflect the lasers and wound the 3 guards while knocking out the other with a blast from his speargun, hitting him on the shoulder and leaving him unconscious from shock. The young Hunter then saw with awe the crucifix and carefully removed it and slowly pulled the crucifix. After he got it, the alarm went off saying "Intruder Alert!" Spike heard the alarm and left the room placing the artifact in his pocket and went ncognito to the outside, heading to his next destination, CHS. Canterlot High School, the school where Spike had gone with the girls all his life. How it was the same school where he was picked on for being with the most popular girls, AKA the Rainbooms. As he went to the building, he secretly went to the back of the corner. He saw there was a camera above him and shot his speargun, destroying it. He proceeded to then put in his signature yautja armor and gear and snuck in a high air duct on the school wall. As the boy crawled, he heard sounds of chatters or ventilation in or outside the ducts, causing to to slowly feel pressure on how the objective would turn out, but he shrugged it off and regained his focus, continuing to crawl. He was at the end of the vent and pushed off the lid and crawled out the duct, and got up seeing he was in an office of a sort full of papers and drawers. "Wait...isn't this..?" Spike said and saw the door The door was revealing it was the office of Principal Celestia, he proceeded to secretly sabotage the cameras in the halls and lockpick the door as it wasn't school due to having already went in the morning hours and went to the his location, the lost and found storage. He silently walked until he heard a noise. He turned and saw it was the janitor, who was cleaning the floors as part of his daily work routine. Spike said "Shit, how am I gonna get past him?" The boy thought and thought until he had an idea, he grabbed something out of his holster, an empty soda can and threw it. The janitor heard the loud sound and said "What was that?" And at that moment had sent to the source, he was punched out. Spike went downstairs and continued to his objective and saw it. The lost and found bin was full of clothes and other lost objects, with the boy searching for a gem as said by Adagio and pulled the large amounts of clothes and found a red pendant with a black lace, as if it was a necklace. The necklace looked blood red and glowed with a bloody red intent of sadism "Alright that's the gem and...what the?" Spike said and noticed a glowing blue He noticed the glow was under a black hoodie and removed it, revealing it was a glowing black gem with a shadow like essence emitting from it. "Another gem? I better take this with me in case" The boy said and made his way out for his final objective and left the school, leaving by the way he came, the vent. But not befire locking the doors. The boy ran to his next waypoint, Applejack's been and looked at his watch. "Alright, it's 9:30, I have enough time to get to Sweet Apple Acres." Sweet Apple Acres, the home of Applejack, a secret member if the Power Ponies known as Mistress Mare-velous. It was night and the barn was closed and the lights were off, save for one in the top. Spike looked and saw to his shock, Applejack changing from her normal tight blue jeans, orange shirt, brown boots and black tank top into an outfit of blue pajamas. Spike looked away, trying to focus on the mission and as he did, he turned and saw her light was off. Believing It was the perfect opportunity, he cloaked himself and climbed the barn and opened the window, slowly going in and closing it again. He rummaged the girls closet and grabbed one pair of the clothes she wears. One orange shirt, one pair of brown boots, one pair of tight blue jeans and one black tank top and placed them in his extra bag he took from the yautja ship. He slowly closed the closet and left to the window opening it and closing it and crawled out, until he heard a familiar voice "What in tarnation is that loud sound?" The awake Appkejack said The alert boy saw her and ran with fast steps and then jumped off the roof of the barn. With the angry cowgirl up and shouting with outrage and fury "Where are you you no good thieving perv?!" She didn't know her culprit had already evaded her. Spike had returned to the apartment of the Dazzlings and used the window to reach Adagio's room, when he entered, the lights were turned mom and revealed a sitting Adagio on the bed, who asked the boy "Have you got what I needed?" "Yes." Spike nodded and pulled out the bag, revealing the things she needed. "Hmm. Well a deal is a deal boy. Don't worry your secret is safe with me." Adagio said "Thanks. I should probably head home now and-." "But I haven't rewarded you yet have I not?" Adagio said innocently "Its fine, you don't need-" Spike said, but she placed a finger on his mask lips "Shhh. I insist." The boy was a bit confused, but said "Ok." "Good! Close your eyes." Adagio asked Spike did so and heard zips and as well as small ties. After a few minutes, Adagio said "Ok, you can look now." Spike slowly revealed his eyes. They bulged with shock at what he saw There stood Adagio Dazzle, who was not only wearing Applejack's clothes and boots. But her body was looking different. Her chest looked more big and and her butt looked almost as more big as Applejack's. She gave a look at him and said "What do you think?" Spike was shocked at what he was seeing and didn't answer. Adagio giggled and kissed him dead on "Wait Adagio." Spike said "What's wrong?" She asked concerned ""What about your sisters?" Spike asked "Oh their asleep. We have time alone~" Adagio flirted and pushed him on the bed Spike's mask was pulled off and he was then kissed by the poofy haired girl as she straddled him by the waist. She undressed his gear and revealed his young toned body and face and that he was in black pants. She continued to kiss, but Spike slowly pulled away, much to her confusion. "What's wrong?" Adagio asked "We can't do this, I'm still 17 and-umph!?" Spike said, but was kissed "I know, I'm just doing this because I'm your girlfriend." She teased "Wha?!" Spike said "What's wrong with being my boyfriend?" Adagio pouted "Its not that I mean it's just I mean i don't think I deserve you since your are popular in school and really pretty and cool and- " Spike explained but was shushed by her "Awww, you do care about me. That's nice coming from you Spikey-Wikey." The two stared at each other with love, until Spike noticed she moved and kissed him deeply and held his neck while he held her back. As they kissed, he rubbed her hair with his right hand, until she moved his left hand to her jeans clad butt. He simply rubbed it gently as she moaned and kisses him deeply. She pushed him on the bed still kissing him, as she guided his hands to her curvy figure. From her breasts to her legs. Spike only stroked her hair as they kissed, and slept in the romantic moonlight. As Adagio fell in her slumber, she said in her head "Now, what to plan for Spikey's birthday this Friday." > Chapter 8: No Going Back? Part 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was Wednesday, and it was time for school. Spike was walking hand to hand with Adagio Dazzle in the halls. With some of the students giving looks of shock as to how they were now dating. Right now it was lunch and all the students were eating their food. Adagio and Spike had sat with each other alone, with a few students giving looks of surprise at the couple. In fact, 6 girls came in and saw the whole thing. Twilight was still sad over how Spike rejected their friendship and the moment she and the other girls entered, the sight shocked them. There stood Adagio Dazzle, the other most popular and biggest rival of the Rainbooms of the Battle of the Bands was kissing their former friend Spike, the girls jaws dropped at the scene "Is that..?!" Rainbow Dash said in disbelief "And is she with Spike?!" Applejack said in fury "And are they...KISSING?!?" Rarity said with anger and fury. The girls were standing there shocked one of their rivals was kissing the green haired boy. But knew that approaching would make him hate them more, and simply went to their table. As Adagio and Spike conversed, the duo either laughed or just smiled at their conversations. Twilight only looked in sadness at the scene and whispered to herself "I'm sorry." The girls saw the depressed bookworm and consoled her, with Fluttershy saying "There there Twilight, Spike may be gone now, but he'll forgive us one day." "Yeah, plus even though he doesn't want to be with us now, doesn't mean he'll try to no let go of what we did." Rainbow said "But that's just it! I never gave Spike a chance to be have a good life nor be treated equally as us! Not only that but we basically just nearly ruined his entire life by using him for our own selfish needs." Twilight said The girls only hugged the girl as she layed her head on the table. Until Pinkie suddenly said with realization "Wait, tomorrow is his birthday right?" The girls heard and nodded as Pinkie then huddled them together. With the bell soon ringing, Adagio said to Spike "Well, it's time for us to go to class. I'll see you later." "You too." Spike said and he left to go to his next class. Spike was seen leaving after having to do another test, he was heading to another location, but this time it wasn't the ship or the Power Ponies HQ . It was his adoptive home. The home where he lived with Twilight and Shining as he never even knew his parents. He was promised a normal childhood, but that sadly did not come to be. The boy went to the front door of the house and placed a letter on the door and then left. He then went his way to his new home, the ship of yautja. The boy was seen in the ship, and there was nobody inside, only him. He said "Hello?" The main door opened and GreyBack came and said "Young Hunter, what is the matter?" "Its nothing. I wanted to ask what the problem was." Spike said "There is nothing of hindrance, we are still tracing the Bad-Bloods, yet they have more enhanced weapons to elude us." "Damn, why is it getting like this?!" Spike said in a stressful tone. "What?" GreyBack asked "Its just that all my life I've been trying to get somewhere and yet no matter how hard I work, no matter what sweat I drop, i get NOTHING but made fun of." "Wha-" GreyBack said, but was cut off by the ranting human "And yet I'm showing them that even though I look weak and useless, that deep down I am MORE stronger then they ever will be!" Spike said, gradually getting more angrier. And GreyBack slowly caught on as he continued to get more heated and angry "Yes-" GreyBack said but was cut off "Then when I work hard it shows that I'm more then capable of getting a future job then won't involve me needing them and then I can personally show the world that I don't need their appreciation!!!" Spike said more furiously while GreyBack looked in pity "And I'm gonna show them that after we deal with those evil jerk hunters that I'm more of a..a Hunter, a hero and I am way more of a good person then THEM!! AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN TEACH ME OF FRIENDS NOR FAMILY BECAUSE THEM ACTING LIKE THIS TO ME IN MY CHILDHOOD SHOWS I'M A BETTER BOY THEN SIX HYPOCRITICAL FEMALE JERKS LIKE THEM WHEN THEY SAY WE'RE TRUE FRIENDS. AND ME GETTING A NEW GIRLFRIEND AND NAME IS ABLE TO SHOW I DON'T NEED THEIR FAKE LEVELS OF LOVE NOR CARE ABOUT ME SINCE I ALREADY KNOW THEIR GONNA USE IT TO MAKE ME LOOK BAD IN MY LIFE AND THAT MEANS THAT THEY DON'T DESERVE TO EVEN BE HERE NOR BE HEROES BECAUSE OF WHAT I HAD TO WORK FOR!!!!" Spike said and stopped his rant, almost in tears. GreyBack only looked at the boy with shock and pity and finally knew what drove the boy to continue fighting so much. The hate and love in his heart had constantly been in conflict with each other that the boy had not known what to do anymore. The Elder looked at the crying boy with a look of sadness. Spike was now in tears, with a demoralized look and didn't know what to think anymore. The boy then said the only few words in his mind he didn't know the answer to in a meek tone and voice "Why does nobody want me?" GreyBack heard enough and hugged the boy. Spike was surprised but returned it, needing anyone right now that was actually caring of him and had to let go it the emotion and fear he had went through his whole life, whether the person was an alien or not. GreyBack said "Spike, listen to me and listen closely, you may not be wanted by most in this planet or world but that doesn't mean that nobody wants you. You showed me that deep down you were an great child and were not only a hero. But a good boy that I would think of as a son. If nobody can see that....then Its their fault for betraying their own choices and beliefs. "But...what good am I..to them..?" Spike said in tears "Then that's their problem, not yours, you may not be a son to them, but your my son." "Thank....you.....father." Spike said in tears, feeling a bit better from his adoptive father "Your welcome....my son." GreyBack said, smiling under his mandibles As they hugged, two photos fell on the ground out of Spike's pocket, one was with him and the Power Ponies and the other was with him standing with his friends and adopted family. The first photo fell into the fog of the ship while the second was when the mist covered Spike's figure in the photo and not the other girls, as he was on the far right. > Chapter 9: No Going Back? Part 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike was seen resting in one off the beds in the ship, he decided to stay there for now as he didn't feel as if it was a wise choice to go back to his human friends. He slowly began to wake up and get his bearings. He managed to get up and put his legs into motion. He was then walking into the bathroom and cleaned himself in the shower and brished his teeth, coming out with a new purple shirt and green pants and was walking with into the main dining room and kitchen, he saw a note and picked it up Dear Spike, For breakfast we bought some food from an ooman food place and put it on the counter, hope you don't mind. Ps: Get well soon, hope to continue the hunt brother. Spike went to the counter and opened the package, revealing a small veggie burger and some eggs. He quickly ate them and drank the milk nearby and left the room. He then wore different gear. First he had a black half-facial mask and hood, left all the weapons but his wrist-blades, Shuriken and cloak and looked at all the other weapons that were human based. He took a nearby hunter bow and arrows and some throwing knives and put them in holsters and attached the arrow and bows on his back. He then left to continue his hunt. The girls were out doing their patrol of the city, having been alerted to an disturbance at a nearby pier. "Finally I've been dying for some action!" Zapp said "Plus, after this we can show Spike we're sorry." Twilight said as the other girls nodded "Alright gals, looks like it's time to work." Marvelous said The girls then proceeded to covertly watch as the robbers were seen pulling out some cargo in of the ship "It looks like an illegal shipment is being sailed to the pier." Matterhorn said "Then we'll have to show them what happens when they meet us." Zapp said cracking her knuckles, but before she could move, Matterhorn stopped her. "Wait Zapp, this looks a bit strange, none of them are armed and yet-" Marvelous said, until the boat had exploded "What the?!" The girls all said at the exploding boat With the guards, they were shocked at their shipment suddenly being destroyed as they all ran over to what was happening, but were suddenly impaled by an invisible force one by one. The girls only looked with horror as they were slaughtered. The figure uncloaked himself and then ran, with the heroines seeing this and Matterhorn said "Follow him!" The girls all complied and they pursued the unknown assassin, who only continued to run as they followed. The assassin was attacked from behind each time by the girls but eluded them each time. Zapp tried to use her necklace, but the hooded figure only threw a knife at her that slashed a small pint of her hair, Marevelous tried to use her lasso and Filli-Second with her speed only to be hot into each other the moment the figure saw them. Radiance had tried to find ways to trap him, but he successfully dodged and threw his Shuriken to make an exit into a nearby building and block the entrance, where the Shuriken returned to him just as the rubble blocked the hole. The figure managed to reach the city, where he jumped on a window and climbed to the top of the building of many signs and billboards. He looked and saw the city highlights and buildings. "This city is sick." The hooded Hunter said "Is that so?" A female voice said behind him Hunter turned and saw to his annoyance, the Power Ponies "You six just don't shut up do you?" He said with disdain "Its over, if you dont want us to hurt you, you'll surrender." Matterhorn said "Pretty cliche coming from you six posers." Hunter insulted "That's it!" Zapp said and was about to use her necklace, But the Hunter, with fast instinct, threw a knife at her, where she narrowly dodged and was kicked in the face. The girl landed on the roof ground with a thud as the other 5 looked at him with anger and charged at him Hunter was ready and began the duel. He first fought Marevelous and she and him were in close combat, ending with him managing to jump and avoid her lasso and shoot an arrow that stuck her into a nearby wall. Filli-Second was using her speed to try and subdue him, but he managed to dodged and threw a mine on the ground, and the moment her foot made contact, she was blasted away into a nearby wall. Radiance and Matterhorn tried to pacify the young Hunter, but he kept evading as Radiance used her powers to try and trap him, but he dodged each time and threw 5 knives at her was able to trap her near Marevelous. Hunter turned to Saddle Racer and threw her before she could transform into Zapp, knocking her out, he turned and saw his last opponent, Masked Matterhorn. "Lets do this." Hunter said "Gladly." Matterhorn said and began the fight The Hunter began to fight his former friend with nothing but hate and fury and she continued to use ever powers to try and freeze him (In the process removing his hood). Yet he managed to put her on the defensive with his advanced weapons. As the Hunter attacked, he landed a slash with his wrist-blade directly to her face, ripping her goggles and mask and exposing her as Twilight Sparkle Matterhorn kicked him back until she saw her mask on the ground and said "What the?!" Hunter only continued to fight until his mask was frozen forcing him to remove it. Exposing his face The girls were all shocked upon seeing who their vigilante really was "Spike?!" They all said > Chapter 10: No Going Back? Part 3 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The boy was now exposed to the 6 heroines he once fought alongside with and only looked at them with contempt, saying nothing "Spike, your the vigilante?" An now conscious Saddle Rager said in surprise Spike only said nothing but gave a look of hatred at his former friends. Radiance removed the last of the knives holding her down and walked up to the now exposed boy and she said walking up to him "Spikey-Wikey?, what is-? AHHHHGGGHH!" Radiance said, but suddenly fell on the ground, with her throat bleeding. The boy had slit his former crushes throat with his Shuriken. He watched as she fell on the ground bleeding out with the girls looking on in horror "Radiance!" The horrified heroines all said The Hunter then his hood and gace mask on and threw multiple knives at them and fought the now free girls, with Zapp taking Radiance to be cared for while the other 4 looked at him, with Rager turning and saying in a deeper voice "YOU BIG MEANIE!!, YOU THINK HURTING THE ONES THAT WERE WITH YOU YOUR ENTIRE LIFE IS A WAY OF SHOWING GRATITUDE OR CARE?!?!?" The boy only looked as she transformed into a hulking muscular woman and looked at his 4 opponents. Hunter was ready and thus fought. He first attacked Filli-Second by putting a sonic mine on her and throwing her at Rager, knocking them to the ground due to the extreme waves. But one hit from Matterhorn knocked him down Saddle Rager turned normal and said in worry "Spike!?" The boy only grabbed her and threw her on the ground and kicked her out with a hit to the face with his boot and turned to the other girls He turned to Marevelous and jumped through the hole of her lasso and threw his Shuriken, which missed "Missed!" Marevelous said, and repeatedly tried to punch and kick him, but he was more agile and suddenly jumped aside. The confused heroine stopped attacking and was then able to narrowly dodge to the projectile and he caught it with his left hand and resumed hand to hand. Marevelous kicked him and he quickly regained his balance and grabbed an attacking Matterhorn and threw her at Marevelous. To be safe, he threw his knives to trap them, which worked with Marevelous, who was stuck on an wall, while Matterhorn dodged and saw the young boy jump on a billboard and run. The lead heroine pursued him with her flight and stopped in front of him and readied her hand with power. Matterhorn said "STOP!" The Hunter saw the girl in his way as she said "Do. Not. Move." He only responded by readying his Shuriken and knives and aimed the Shuriken at her. The two former friends were now in a stand-off with each other and looked at each other with no emotion. Matterhorn's eyes only looked with sadness and said "Spike, your my best friend and the best little brother I had, I can't be in a world where you have to be an enemy that takes lives away. If you are truly who you are now. Then go on, do what you must." The boy hesitated, the girl that had wronged him and used him his whole life was suddenly showing regret and pity towards his poor upbringing. He only debated about the choices he made and was unable to think of how he would deal with his future. Without any other thought, the boy only said "Do you really think that apologizing now is going to make all the things you and the other girls did to me right again? This is the real world Twilight, you need to wake up and face it. In school, you and them may be some popular chicks guys want to screw over. But to me your nothing but phonies that don't care about anyone but themselves and use their good looks to achieve your own ends. Not to mention that I never even knew my real family and even when you adopted me I couldn't even see nor find them. Well I say FUCK YOU!" (Fight Theme Skillet Hero) He threw his knives and the heroine narrowly dodged and fired an ice blast at him, but he evaded her and jump kicked her to the ground and she and her friends got up and got in battle stances. Spike was now more angrier and said "YOU SAY YOUR HEROES?!?, YOUR JUST PHONIES THAT DON'T DESERVE TO BE CALLED HEROES BY ANYONE!!!" As he yelled, his chest hoodie began to pulsate a white skull and make his skin more dark black and blood red. He then roared in the sky and jumped and attacked the girls one by one and this time fought with more savagery and hatred. The girls were shocked that the boy they once knew had just denounced them was now fighting them without a care of the world, his eyes began to turn more bloodshot as he laid brutal blows and attacks on each of them. Marevelous had been trying to subdue him with her lasso, but he caught it and threw her to the ground and savagely stomped on her head and neck. Filli-Second tried to confuse him with her speed, but when she touched his skin, she burned her hand and fell on the ground in pain, which increased when he punched her so hard, her nose was bleeding. Saddle Rager had tried to find a way to attack him but she was savagely slashed in the chest and face and brutally hit in the face. The last opponent, Matterhorn had tried to fight him, but no matter what she did, he was unaffected and the moment he got close, he grabbed her and threw her into a billboard, where it crashed into the city streets. Spike slowly began to return to normal and he gave a look of confusion at the chaos and the unconscious girl, with no time he ran and grabbed his face mask and put it on while he ran and jumped from roof to roof (With Hunter/Spike) The boy was cloaked and running to get away as fast as he could from the heroines that he hated and was able to successfully reach an safe location where he wouldn't be pursued. "Ok, what was that?!" The boy asked in fright at himself He continued to head out and something in his pocket ringed. He looked and pulled out his phone and saw it was a text from an unknown number and pulled it out. The text said "Hello Spike." "Who is this?" Spike replied "I'm heartbroken..you don't know me?" The unknown text user put in "No, should I?" "Hint, thanks for saving me squirt." "Aria?" Spike guessed "Good guess, where are you?" "Outside near a grocery store, why?" Spike half lied "Adagio wanted to see you, it's really important." Aria texted seriously "Ok, I'm coming." The boy continued his way to the apartment they lived in. (Dazzling's home.) Spike removed his hunter clothes and hid them in his bag and secretly opened the window, he slowly crawled in. The lights were off, Spike did not see anybody inside and was about to open the door, until the 3 jumped out and said "SURPRISE!" Spike fell on his back and looked at the room with decorations saying "Happy Birthday Spike!" In green and purple and there was a cake. (Twilight's home) The people in the house were waiting for the boy to come, but the time was passing "Where are they?" A mature female voice said "Honey, they might be a little late." A adult male said "Shining, are you sure Spike's gonna come?" An young woman with pink hair holding a little pink baby said "Cadence, I'm sure Twily will be fine." Shining assured A ring on his phone went off and he gasped "Shiny, what's wrong?" Cadence asked "Twilights hurt! She's in the hospital!" He said, causing everybody to gasp in shock also. > Chapter 11: No Going Back? Part 4 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shining, Cadence, Flurry and Twilight Velvet and her husband had been driving as fast as they could to Maretropolis hospital to see how Twilight Sparkle was doing. They each had looks of worry and fear as to what could be possibly hurt their relative. "I hope she's ok." Shining said As they drove to the hospital, they were unaware they were being watched... Maretropolis Hospital, the place where many come to get treated by physical or internal injuries. Here, the Sparkle family was seen waiting for their chance to see their daughter. Along the way, 2 other adults came with a young pale skinned girl "Twilight?" Cookie said The Sparkles turned and saw the Belle family come to them, with Velvet looking at her In surprise "Cookie? What are you doing here?" Twilight Velvet asked "Our oldest daughter Rarity was hospitalized because something hit her throat." Hondo replied, saying the last part with contempt This left the Sparkles family shocked, as Night said with an equal level of fury "Really? That's why were all here for our daughter Twilight was injured because of some nasty fall." The Belle family were just as shocked, until a nurse came and said "Twilight Velvet?" The Sparkles came and rushed to the nurse, with Twilight Velvet saying "Is my daughter ok?!?" "Yes, she had injured her back pretty bad, but the spinal cord was undamaged, there may have been a soft object force landing that saved her. But overall, she is ok, but she has to stay a couple days because of her ankle being sprained and a part of the femur bone was hurt pretty bad." "And for our daughter?" Cookie asked with worry "Mrs. Belle, your daughter had her throat slit pretty fatally and-" "WHAT?!" Hondo said along with Cookie in shock "Wait! Let me finish. She was bleeding out and we had to perform some minor surgery near her pharnyx. Although she managed to make it through, I'd recommend she stay here a few days, that way her throat will heal faster and allow her vocal chords to properly function." The 2 families were relieved and the nurse said "If you wish, you may each see the two of your daughters." They nodded and went into separate rooms in the hospital, where their respective daughters were healing. Outside the hospital however, an unseen figure locked onto a sleeping Twilight Sparkle. And after a few seconds left quietly... Spike meanwhile was in the apartment with the Dazzlings and they each had began to bond with him. Even though he didn't get presents, he didn't care, his only present was their friendship. "Happy Birthday Spike" Sonata said "Its the least we could do for you squirt." Aria said also "Sorry we didn't get anything for you." Adagio added "Thanks girls and that's ok, it's just nice to see you care about me." Spike acknowledged The girls blushed at the kind words he said and partied with the boy. He had the greatest time in his life then he did with Twilight and began to feel that with them and to the yautja, they were not only his real family, but motivation to be a more good person when not Hunter. It was a few more hours that passed and the girls all laughed on happiness along with the boy at the fun they each had. As the day passed, Spike said "Guys, thanks for everything you did." The 3 only smiled and Adagio said "It was no problem Spikey." "But we aren't done celebrating yet." Sonata flirted Spike said with a confused look "Wha?" The three brought him to a chair and let him sit down, they then went in front of him and slowly began to vocalize. Spike then realized they were going to sing. (Ps, this is the song their singing, just imagine it) As they were singing in harmonic voices of beauty, Spike realized the song was not just about him but about the way he had saved their lives and how he protected the people in secret as the Shadow Hunter. As they sang, they slowly walked over to the boy they loved and swayed their hips. They circled the young anti-hero/honorary yautja human as he looked on with eyes of nervousness, they each had began to tease him in numerous ways. Which only made him more timid and a bit awkward, but they didn't mind, this boy is the one they want, and its ONLY HIM they love. Sonata for example only kissed the boy on the left cheek first, leaving a blue kiss mark, causing him to blush. She giggled and then kissed his lips passionately as the other two either played with his hair or body. After she stopped kissing to let them breath, she shoved his face into her cleavage Spike was both happy and flustered as she moved his head back and forth, jiggling her breasts onto his face. As this happened, Sonata asked with a smile as she pulled his out out of her bust "Having fun?" Spike only gave a goofy look as the three giggled, knowing the answer as Sonata got off Aria said while turning to the boy crossing her arms with a lustful smile "My turn birthday boy." And like Sonata, she kissed him dead on, stroking his hair and secretly feeling his crotch. As she kissed him, she rubbed on his crotch slowly. After doing so, she kissed his right cheek this time, giving a purple kiss mark like Sonata did. Aria then got off and showed the boy her jeans clad butt. She then shoved her crack into his face and shook it as Adagio played with his bulge and Sonata moved behind and shoved his head further into her butt. Aria began to twerk onto his face with a lustful look as the boy was blushing from her crack on his face. The 3 continued to tease him as his bulge grew more slowly. After a few more minutes, Aria removed herself and Adagio was next and she swayed her hips as she walked to the boy and gave a look of want "Hope your ready for another gift to unwrap~" Adagio said and began to kiss the boy on his lips. As she did, they lasted for at least 10 minutes until stopping. The orange haired girl turned showing her humongous rump to the flustered Spike She bent and shaked her behind near his face. Spike was speechless, this felt like much. Perhaps TOO much. Before he could say anything, she bent up and pulled him out the chair "That was fun, but we gave one more present for you to unwrap." Adagio saud and led him to her room, when inside, she closed the door as she laid Spike down and said began to strip "Every Hero gets to make it rock at this night." Adagio said and pinned him on the ground "Me first!" Sonata said and pushed her two sisters out the way, she kissed him dead and started to remove her clothes then her underwear. As they kissed, she put his hands on her boobs, and he squeezed or pulled with enough force to make moan in pleasure. After they stopped, she put his mouth on her left nipple and he sucked her milk. "Don't hog him!" Aria said as she stripped and sat near Sonata while pushing Sonata, to one side and Spike sucked her right breast nipple. They both moaned as they were fed off. Adagio was meanwhile, blowing his penis and rubbing it into her breasts while Sonata bounced up and down. "I'm gonna..!" Spike said With that, Sonata released before him and pulled out, with Adagio covered in the face by his white liquid. "Mmm tasty." Adagio complimented "Me next!" Aria said and grinded on his penis, hardening it and entered. She and Spike both moaned as she bounced the rhythm. Adagio then got up and sat on his face. "Mmm. Show me what you got boy!" Adagio said in lust The boy replied by pushing his face and ate her out and filled Aria as she screamed and pulled out as she cummed with him. Adagio was next and quickly hardened his shaft, instead of inserting, she pulled Spike up presented her butt to him. "Show me you power~!" Adagio challenged Spike, now more ready jumped and inserted in her, she moaned as he put it in and out and spanked her butt numerous times and held her arms. "YES, YES, MORE!!" Adagio begged Spike said with a smirk "What's the magic word?" "PLEASE!, FILL ME WITH YOUR SEED! PLEASE MAKE ME CUM HARD! PLEASE YOU SEXY STUD!!" Spike obliged and spanked her butt with his hand and continued more faster, as they both moaned and then released into each other. The two embraced and hugged as they kissed before falling asleep "Happy birthday Spike." Adagio said before sleeping > Chapter 12: Lockdown! Part 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike began to slowly wake up from his slumber and looked at the window, it was now morning and he attempted to get up, but be was held by somebody. He turned and saw itbwas a sleeping Adagio Dazzle. She was peacefully sleeping and laid on the bed with a smile. Spike only looked at her with an happy face and got up with a yawn. He slowly shaked her and she began to awaken. "Hmmm...." Adagio got up and yawned, with her hair messy and face tired "Good morning Adagio." Spike said to his lover "Morning Spike." Adagio said in a tired tone. As they both got up, she pecked him on his lips and he returned it. "I've got to take a shower after the fun we had, Aria and Sonata are making breakfast." Adagio said "Alright, but maybe we should crush our teeth first." Spike said Adagio nodded and they had both headed into the bathroom, With Spike grabbing an unopen toothbrush and using it while Adagio was getting spare clothes and a towel with a white robe. As he brushed and cleaned his teeth, he made sure to not look. After he finished, he went to the shower, but then pulled a towel and put it in the rack and closed the doors. He stripped himself of his clothes and boxers and began to take a shower and clean himself. (An few minutes later) Spike came out of the bathroom and managed to put on his towel and realized he had no clothes of his own and revealed himself. He left with the towel covering his gut area and saw the Dazzlings making waffles and pancakes. "Um good morning girls." Spike said to the 3 "Good morning Spike." Sonata said The three looked and saw the boy still in the towel, Adagio said "By the way, we forgot to give you something." Sonata pulled out a purple his wrapped in green and put it near Spike, who opened it and saw it was a spare pair of pants the was green, a shirt that was purple and green with lines. "Thanks girls." Spike said as he went back to the bathroom to change. When he finished, he returned and began to eat breakfast City was jumping from rooftop to rooftop in his human form around the city in cloak mode. He was trying to look around for any sign of criminals or civilians that had been found dead. As he continued his hunt, he suddenly picked up signs of smoke on his bio-mask "What?" City said, detecting the smoke The hunter turned and saw to his shock, a burning building with some people dragged by paramedics into ambulance's City was shocked, but had to decide on continuing his hunting saving lives, he looked as the fire crew was trying to save the civilians but the attempts were in vain. "There's still a few civilians inside, we have to help them!" One fire fighter said "Not a good idea, the fire is too intense!" The leader said with protest City knew they were gonna die and ran to the ceiling roof of the building and said in his mind "(Please don't be dead already.)" The human/yautja hunter climbed and jumped into an open window, where the fire intensified, but his mask picked up two heat signatures before he ran and escaped the room. City followed his bio-mask's heat signatures and its scent and to send down into a nearby hallway, he saw a hall of class rooms and one room had the most intense fire, he kicked the door open The room was flaring, he saw numerous desks and plants on fire and the chalkboard in flames and two girls trapped. The red and yellow haired girl was trying to lift the large object of debris of her friend, but it wouldn't budge. "I can't lift it!" The red and yellow haired girl said "Sunset you need to go!" The green haired girl said "No Wallflower, I'm not leaving you!" The girl identified as Sunset said City was watching cloaked and knew he had not mhch time, he quickly uncloaked himself and pushed her out the way "Huh?!" Sunset saud as she was moved City, using his enhanced strength, lifted the large debris off the girl and said 'Hurry, you need to move!" Wallflower was confused, but complied in a hurry and got out of her situation, she got up and limped to the two. "We can't get out, it's too strong!" Sunset said City, with a look of determination, grabbed Sunset Shimmer and held her and said to Wallflower "Get on my back NOW!" Wallflower jumped onto his armored back and City ran with the two of them in his care, he sprinted out the hall and used his bio-mask to scan for anything to help suppress the fire. He picked up a nearby fire sprinkler and fired at off with his clear gun. The sprinklers reduced the fire and City, seeing his chance, ran and proceeded to find an exit. He detected one emergency exit downstairs and jumped down and out of the exit with the girls in tow. "Hey look!" The captain said City was carrying the scared girls and managed to reach a few paramedics, who helped Wallflower and Sunset before leaving. "Who was that?" One firefighter asked Spike was currently still in the Dazzlings apartment and was watching tv. The girls were out doing their jobs as performers and so he was alone. He was watching a show called The Masked Singer and when it still played, the news suddenly popped "Breaking News! This afternoon there was a raging fire that had threatened the school of Canterlot High and had severely injured others and hospitalized numerous civilians. During this 2 other girls were trapped and could not get out, until an unknown masked hero had saved them and risked his or her life to save the two from danger. Here is the clip that had occured at the scene of the fire." The clip showed City carrying the two out and sending them to a few paramedics before suddenly disappearing. Spike saw his ally and gave a look of surprise at how his human alien friend had saved two girls in his high school "Some sources sat that he disappeared after rescuing the girls from the fire. Whoever this masked man is, these girls see him as a new rival to the Power Ponies. To whoever you are mystery hero, thank you. That's all for now." Spike gave a look of surprise and laid his head on the couch saying "Not. Good." Something on the boy's wrist gauntlet had began to ring. Spike went Adagio's room and pressed a button, it was Greyback "Boy, how goes the hunt?" "Good, but I haven't found any of these guys your after." "Well I have some news, I found one and your not gonna like it." Greyback showed something on his wrist and it showed the Power Ponies tied up and gagged and another yautja looking at them with his blood red bio-mask "The girls are there too?" Spike said in dismay "I'm afraid they must have heard the commotion." Greyback said "Alright, but I'm not saving those 6." Spike said "Why is that?" Greyback asked "Because there just gonna keep making me look bad, besides they have powers, they can free themselves." Greyback, with a look of understanding said "We will continue the conversation when you reach the ship." Spike nodded and got ready for the hunt, and save his former allies. "I can't believe I'm doing this." Spike said with dismay > Chapter 13: Lockdown! Part 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike was racing to the location of the ship and ran as fast as he could. He couldn't burn too much time with the Bad-Blood in hiding. He managed to reach the hiding spot the ship normally was. In an abandoned alley near an demolished apartment building. Spike managed to enter the ship and walk into the foggy hall, where He saw the other yautja and GreyBack discussing, among them City and Jungle GreyBack saw the boy and said "Hello young warrior." "Hey GreyBack, I'm here about the report you told me." GreyBack turned to the predators and said in yautja "(We will speak later. Each of you leave except City and Jungle, you two wait in that room.)" The other yautja replied by walking into other rooms near the ship and left the 2 to speak in private. City and Jungle went to the room and closed the door to let them speak. "You expressed disdain at saving them, I wish to know your reason." GreyBack said "Because they have powers, they'll be fine." Spike replies "But from what I found, they aren't." GreyBack notified "So? Twi- Matterhorn can get them out, she did a bunch of times." Spike reasoned "Yet there they are hoping to be saved." "Well I'm pretty sure that they're gonna be fine, after all, they're the world's most famous heroes." Spike said in dismay GreyBack only looked at the boy and said "Young Warrior, I understand your contempt for these females, but this might be their last day." "I know and they should've thought of actually caring then leaving me in the shadows my whole life." Spike said "Yet they clearly miss you." GreyBack added "No they don't. " Spike said Greyback only pressed a button on his gauntlet and it showed a screen that showed the captive girls. "I never should have hurt him." Zapp said in sadness "I never should have treated him unequally." Saddle Rager said "Ah never should've made him feel small." Marevelous said in tears "Spikey-Wikey was right to hurt me. I only used him." Radiance said emotionally "I never should've have uninvited him to the parties we had." Filli-Second saud with her hair straight Matterhorn was the most affected, she only said "I'm sorry Spike." In a tearful whisper crying The boy looked and gave an look of dismay and simply said in a slight struggle "The past is in the past, and we have to deal with now." "And now I think you can hand your friendship with them." "...Don't you remember? We had no friendship." Spike said in struggle once more GreyBack only gave a look at the boy. Who was trapped in an internal castle that he didn't know how or if he should leave. But only said "Jungle, City, you may both come." The 2 did so and City only asked "What happened?" "We only discussed on the matter of the Bad-Bloods. We have more news to share." GreyBack said The 2 were a but unconvinced due to Spike's look of struggle and pressure and GreyBack's look of pity, but decided to not ask of the issue and nodded. "What have you found?" Jungle asked GreyBack motioned for the 3 to follow him and walked into another room. They followed and the room revealed itself to be the same room that showed Tracker's location. He pressed something on the controls and it revealed a building that looked as if it was recently demolished and badly repaired. "The Bad-Blood we had managed to find was Blood Sword and 2 others named Slasher and Graven. Blood Sword is wanted for destruction on our planet and desecration of corpses. Slasher and Graven are two brothers that have used destructive weapons on many planets and innocent lives. The reason they are stronger then us is because they have mkre enhanced weapons and visions on their masks" The 3 only gave looks of fury at the screen that showed their prey was holding the city's well known heroes captive. "So, what's the plan?" City asked "We have to create a diversion so that way we can free the girls. And I think I got just the idea." Spike said "Alright brother, we are listening." Jungle said as he City and Spike huddled. "Since Greyback said they have more upgraded gear, let's see how they get a taste of their own medicine. GreyBack, can you add anything on our gear?" The brothers and Spike turned to the Elder yautja who nodded saying "I'll see what I can do, but what is it you need?" The boy whispered something as the Elder listened. As GreyBack listened, he widened his eyes and said "I'll try to see what I can do." The Elder then left the room, leaving the brothers to watch the screen with the Blood Sword yautja watching the girls (On the Screen) The Power Ponies had been captured, they were tied up and bruised at the hands of an unknown for they never even knew. They were trying to desperately escape their captors clutches and find out who had taken them. Their captor in turn was simply looking at them with an unknown expression due to wearing his blood red mask. He had more armor and arsenal in his equipment. Along with not only standard equipment, but also a laser pistol and explosive spears. He only readied his weapons should the girls think of moving and then looked at them, clicking his mandibles in sadistic amusement. The ropes holding the girls were glowing green and caused them to groan in pain as it electrocuted them a bit. Blood Sword then looked at the girls and with his bio-mask mimicked in surprisingly, the voice of Tirek "Looks like the Power Ponies are now the Power Pussies!" The girks only glared hatefully at their foe at his mockery of them and their superhero status (Back with the 3 warriors) The 3 watched in disgust as they saw the 3 dishonorable hunters leader Blood Sword violate rights of his warrior code and cross a line, even in their standards. As they looked on, the door opened and GreyBack said "Warriors, come with me." The 3 complied and followed the Elder yautja to another room in the ship. As they walked, several other yautja clicked at them and a few even looked at Spike with hints of either suggestion or interest. When they reached the armory, GreyBack then introduced something on Spike's Youngblood mask. "Here is what you asked of boy. It is the button on your visor." Spike looked at the mask and saw that while it looked the same, there was a new feature and Spike saw something on the laser pointer pressed the small button The mask said "Here is what you asked of boy. It is the button on your laser aim point." in GreyBack's recorded voice "To record another voice, you must lock on the person and before they speak, press the button on the "The Vocal Mimicry? What are you going to use with that?" Jungle ased confused "Give them a hunt, that's what they want right?" "Well we're coming too in case things become chaotic." City said "Ok, but I need another thing." Spike said "What?" Greyback asked "Do you have any weapons related to water or smoke?" Spike asked GreyBack pulled out a blue lined mine and said "This is the Water Pulse, it's a mine that delivers a pulse that can expose your enemy and even destroy their cloak, to activate it, press the button her and throw it where you want." "Alright then, get ready, we don't have much time." Spike said as he took the mine The nodded and picked their weapons, ready for the hunt. > Chapter 14: Lockdown! Part 3 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 3 hunters were jumping from building to building to the abandoned building the girls were held. They were in cloak mode and had began the hunt to ensure they would only be killed, but the people would lose it's heroes of the city. They eventually saw their waypoint and looked at the building and its demolished and creaky state, as they looked around the building with their bio-masks. They each scanned the floors and rooms and saw 7 thermal figures on the top floor, while the second and first floor was mined with fire bombs "I see them, they are in the top floor, we can't enter the building itself because it's rigged with bombs." Jungle said "Then we have to find find another way inside, but where?" City asked Spike saw the building was just adjacent of a nearby old convenience store and jumped on the roof, saying to the two "Follow me." The two did so and leapt on the roof quietly as possible as the boy readied his mask "...Hold on, let me try something." Shadow Hunter said as he pressed the vocal button on his mask. (Abandoned Building, Top Floor) The girls were trying to escape their bonds with their powers, but no matter what they did, they could not get out. Blood Sword only looked at the girls as they were trying to escape, Zapp then said to him on outrage. "What the hell is your deal asshole?!" The annoyed yautja angrily fired his speargun, which narrowly missed the heroine and growled. As he looked at them, a voice was heard outside as a large light flashed at the building which loudly said "THIS IS THE MARETROPOLIS POLICE! WE HAVE THE BUILDING SURROUNDED ALL AROUND! COME OUT AND RELEASE YOUR HOSTAGES OR WE WILL USE FORCE!!!" The Bad-Blood yautja gave a look of surprise and ran out the building, leaving the girls alone. Blood Sword was running and pressed something on his wrist. He then cloaked himself as he ran to the nearby exit on the roof. (Outside the building) Slasher and Graven continued to keep watch, until the two heard their wrist comms going off "What the pauk?" Graven said confused, until he was suddenly stabbed on the throat. His killer was revealed to be City Graven's brother, Slasher was meanwhile seen in his lookout point near the building and ran upon hearing his wrist comm beeping (On the roof of the convenience store) The 3 brothers had used their vocal mimicry to trick each of the three Bad-Bloods and silently continued Spike turned to his 2 allies and said "You guys deal with the other one, I'll save the girls and take out Blood Sword." The two nodded with slight hesitance as City said "Be careful brother." Spike separated from the two warriors and slowly enters the fray. He jumped and climbed on the wall of the building and used his bio-mask to scan for any other dangers or hostages and jumped to the roof and threw the Water Pulse explosive directly at the doors entrance. The moment the handle clicked, Blood Sword had appeared and the explosive activated, exposing him and revealing his true bloody and grueling appearance. "NOW!" At that moment, Blood Sword had been blasted or attacked with numerous ranged weapons, to the point where his blood was all over the ground. As they attacked, Blood Sword fired his plasma castor, which narrowly hit Jungle as he dodged and the blast instead destroyed a nearby tower, causing its connected lines to short circuit and electrocute the ground, setting cars and maybe people on fire judging from the screams. The Bad-Blood collapsed due to the numerous wounds inflicted on him, but Spike saw the other civilians in danger and said "Guys, cloak yourselves! Those innocents are in danger! I have to help the hostages inside!" Spike said seeing the commotion The two nodded and cloaked themselves while jumping and stopping the electrocution by destroying either the power box or absorbing the electrocution with their wrist-blades (regaining power to their weapons in the process). After this they extracted the civilians that were in the vicinity to evacuated areas more safe (Inside the building) The girls were still trying to break free as they heard a commotion coming outside "What the hell is that?" Zapp asked "Whatever it was, it sounded pretty angry." Matterhorn said Footsteps were suddenly heard as Radiance asked "Who's there?!" Their visitor turned out to be none other then an different outfit worn Shadow Hunter, this time in his yautja gear "Who are you?!" Marevelous asked "It's that other one that captured us!" Saddle Rager assumed fearfully The boy in his gear only looked without a word and then pulled out a dagger and cut their bonds, leaving the girls confused, until Zapp lunged and knocked him on the ground and was on top of him and said "Pretty stupid to just release us Cockface!" Shadow Hunter easily headbutted her and threw her at the girls, who were ready to fight, until Hunter fired a net at them and said in a deep and distorted "Quiet...you..,attract..him...I.. help..you." The girls were confused while Marevelous said in distrust "And why should we trust you?" "I no care if you die...but..do you...know term "The enemy of my enemy is my friend?"" The girls heard his words and whispered amongst themselves. As they whispered, Zapp showed clear protest along with Marevelous and Radiance while Saddle and Filli-Second were unsure or agreed. After a few minutes, Matterhorn said "Ok, we'll help you." Shadow Hunter removed the nets and the girls got up and freed themselves, until Matterhorn then said to him menacingly "But try anything, I'll freeze your ass into cryostatis." "Very well...you try..I slit your throat and hang your fuckin head on platter dish." Hunter equally replied in a cold and threatening tone The two stopped facing each other as Matterhorn said "Lead the way." > Chapter 15: Lockdown! Part 4 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The girls and Hunter were slowly walking to avoid any ambush or surprise attacks. Hunter was using his mask to scan if there were any bombs due to the Fire Bombs being on the first floor. As he observed the floors, there was tumbling and blasts that shook the building. (Outside the building, on the roof) Jungle and City were fighting Blood Sword and Slasher, Blood Sword was surprisingly not only still alive, but had only suffered a few minor wounds from the blasts that were on his chest, yet there were several holes that bled his green blood all over his chest, which despite healing, didn't fully treat the wounds. Slasher on the other hand, even though he was not hurt, his gear was damaged and phasing because of a crack on the top of the helmet he wore. Jungle and City were in a way ok, aside from a few gashes on the chest or armor, but both of they're gear wasn't as they were either running low on power and battery or their their gears power wasn't enough to hurt the Bad-Bloods armor padding The four were fighting two on two. Blood Sword against Jungle and Slasher against City. As they fought, they're equipment was getting more damaged. Jungle blasted Blood with his plasma castor, stunning him and pushing him off the ledge. Jungle however also fell, but used his wrist-blade to hold on to wall bricks to not fall. which had knocked him into the first floor of the building Jungle got up to the window and saw he downed Blood Sword and jumped in and saw the Fire bombs near and narrowly avoided touching them, he roared at his foe to fight, who responded by roaring louder, until a voice loudly shouted "HEADS UP!!" Blood Sword turned around and was kicked to the ground by none other then the Shadow Hunter. Who was being accompanied by the Power Ponies. Hunter pulled out something from his belt and threw it on the Fire Bombs and shouted "RUN!!" With no time to talk, Hunter, the girls and Jungle ran out the building and ran right out the front entrance, with the building exploding and burning in flames the moment the explosive detonated. The 8 looked at the building, while Shadow said to Jungle "Where is City?" Jungle gave a look of horror and said "Oh no, he was still fighting Graven on the roof." The two gave looks of fear at each other and rushed to the building to find their seemingly fallen comrade. "Brother?!" Jungle shouted There was no response, the two continued to desperately search for their fallen ally, while the Power Ponies only looked in at the wounded civilians and managed to get them to safety from the burning building. The two continued to search, until a voice was heard "Hey!" The two turned and to their astonishment, it was City, who looked battered and beaten. The two hugged their comrade as Shadow Hunter asked "City, how did you get out of there?" City looked and said "Well.." (With City Hunter) City was fighting Graven with his Wrist-blades and Combi-Stick. The two were still fighting until the building began to slowly collapse. Graven landed a haymaker at City. The two were still standing as the roof floor collapsed and fell through the building, creating a hole. "This is for my brother!" Graven shouted as he charged The two warriors clashed their weapons at each other and continued to fight. As they did, City noticed the floor was about to fall again and subdued Graven with his net and ran for his life to the window. "You not getting out alive!!" Graven said City only jumped out the window as the building caught on fire and began to explode. He landed roughly on the ground and saw the building fall. As it fell into nothing but debris, City began to limo his way to his brothers. (End of Flashback) The two looked at him and then at the building and gave looks of exhaustion. Jungle said "Well, I think that's the last of them." Shadow said with agreement "We should head back to the others and get healed." The two brothers nodded and cloaked themselves and left, just as Shadow did however, he saw 6 familiar figures heading to him. "Hey!" Zapp said as she and the other 5 approached. Hunter looked at them and said "What do you want?" The girls looked at him with varying expressions, until Matterhorn said "We just want to say thanks for the help." Shadow Hunter turned to leave, until Marevelous grabbed his arm "Hold on there, we didn't say you could leave." Hunter, with anger grabbed her throat with surprising strength and lifted her, the girls looked with horror. "DON'T YOU EVER TOUCH ME AGAIN." Hunter said, with his bio-mask adding further distortion to his voice The heroine was then thrown at her friends, who were about to attack, but were suddenly trapped in a net. "Hey, let us outta here!" Zapp said with anger and protest The young warrior only indifferently reacted by cloaking himself and leaving. The trapped girls tried to get out of the net, but this time this version appeared to be more enhanced as the lines were not cut as easily, as Matterhorn proved when she tried to break it, but it didn't even phase the net ropes. (Unknown location) The area was dark, and there was only filth, sewage, dead animals or even rotted food. Inside this gloomy environment, there was growling and the more growling the unknown gave, the more louder it became. The room the loud growls cane from was full of dead humans. There was dead people surrounding the wall because of being stuck by an unknown sticky substance. As the growls became louder, the cause of the growls was revealed. The creature was incredibly menacing and tall, she was shown not only look tall but walked on two legs. She was chained and held by the huge pendulum and roared with despair She roared as her children came to her aid, led by a similar but small creature with a net pattern on its head that began to dissolve themselves. They're blood suddenly acted acidic to the chains as the now free female roared with her remaining offspring with her chains (Save for one long one). As she ran, a flyer saying "Concert of Songbird Serenade, Countess Coloratura and Sapphire Shores Tomorrow at 10:00PM!" was observed by the large female. She growled and gave a slight curve of her lips, as if to smile and roared. Her and her children retreated and began to plan.... > Chapter 16: Alien Vs Predator Part 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- After the events with the 3 Bad-Bloods, Spike, Jungle and City had successfully managed to reach the ship and speak with GreyBack. When they reached him however, he was in dire fear and pressure and only looked at the 3 with an expression of fear. The entire room was surrounded with yautja, looking at their leader with concern. "GreyBack, what's wrong?" Spike asked The Elder only looked at the boy and said "Warriors, I have urgent news that you all have to get ready for." "Is it about the Bad-Bloods?" Jungle asked "No...this is a more worse threat we not only must be prepared for, but we have to stop it immediately." The yautja and Spike all looked at the Elder as he pressed something on the screen. It showed the sewer of Maretropolis. There was a number of people stuck on the walls with their chests busted out gruesomely. The yautja all gave looks of horror and recognition while Spike only gave a look of confusion. "Those are known as Xenomorphs. They are beasts that attack anyone they see and capture them to create new offspring from any kind, whether it's a human or any other type of species." "Not only that, but compared to the Bad-Bloods, these things are far too dangerous." Jungle added with disgust "How so?" Spike asked "They are a race that breed their embryo by using another kind of creature called a facehugger. When they latch on to your face, they lay the egg inside from the mouth and travel all the way into the stomach. Once the egg has hatched, they will emerge from the chest and go through its stage of growth and develop hybrid traits of the host." GreyBack explained Spike only gave a look of awe and disgust and said "How do we take care of them?" GreyBack only said "Jungle and City will not aid you in this hunt, I will send in 3 more hunters to aid in your hunt. In the meantime, follow me, we will get more armor for you." The boy was led to the armory to gain his weapons. He was then shown newer armor and weapons like a Plasma Pistol, which he took. As Spike armed himself with physical and ranged weapons and ammunition. GreyBack then said to him "Boy, I have something for you." Spike saw his master pull out a big silver cannon like weapon with a shoulder strap and GreyBack pressed a button on the weapon. It lit up and GreyBack said "I need you bio-mask too." Spike complied by pulling off the mask and handing it to the Elder warrior, who then proceeded to press button on the big cannon and then pressed something on his bio-mask. GreyBack stopped and said to the boy "This is a plasma castor, you put it on your shoulder and aim it at the target you want to attack. To fire, you have to lock on your prey and charge it by mentally ordering it to charge and fire." "But how do i do that?" Spike asked "You have shown to not only fight for honor, but protect your brethren whether they are your kin or not. That is why it will listen to you and your bio-mask." GreyBack answered The Elder then took him to the briefing room. The room was filled with yautja looking at the screen with disgust while the two only stated at the screen, ready for the hunt. The two looked at the large screen and GreyBack said "We have been monitoring them for where they intend to breed and create more offspring and we have learned they are doing so under the city's sewage line. Me and a few others have managed to find out where they plan to strike next." GreyBack pushed a button and the screen showed a familiar stage and some stagehands and 3 familiar notorious girls preparing the stage and concert. "Oh no, that's..!" Spike said with recognition and fear upon seeing who and where the Xenomorphs target was. (Power Ponies HQ) The girls had managed to return to their base, having broken free from the net. Matterhorn was studying the contents of the net they managed to cut using a dagger from Blood Sword on the large computer while pressing some buttons on the keyboard. Both the dagger and net were in two separate closed capsules and held by small claw hands. "This is really starting to get weird." Zapp said in doubt "What do you mean Dashie?" Filli-Second said questionably "First we learn all our annoying and most evil enemies are dead, then we see green blood on some ugly monster guy who then blows himself up, and then another one that looked like him captures us and doesn't even say why! None of this is going anywhere." "Not to mention the fact that Spike as that vigilante could be anywhere, along with that other varmint with the helmet and sword that trapped us in a net." Marevelous said with dismay Matterhorn was meanwhile continuing to study the contents and then suddenly stopped and said in confusion "What?!" "What's wrong Twi?" Marevelous asked "The net and this dagger, it's nothing like the ones we have here." "Yeah, we know that. Our base doesn't have that kinda stuff." Zapp said "No, I mean, the material and craftsmanship, its nothing like the one we have here or any other country like Las Pegasus or Manehattan. These two weapons have materials that are not only here, but not even from this PLANET." Twilight said, punctuating the last part with a firm tone "What?!" The other five girls said in shock "But then if these two weapons aren't from this PLANET, where ARE they from?" Radiance asked "Something tells me that we aren't dealing with a criminal girls." Matterhorn said "It sounds as of we have to deal with an ALIEN." Filli-Second said with fear "Pinkie, don't be silly, there are no such things as aliens." Zapp protested "Actually Dash, she kinda has a point." Twilight said "What? How?" "Think about it. The warehouse trap where that guy we managed to ambush who had GREEN blood come out of himself and mimicked Spike, the one who captured us and tried to use us as bait. This can show we're dealing with a threat like we never faced before." "Ok. But what about Spike as that hooded feller that attacked us?" Marevelous asked "Yeah, we haven't even seen Spike ever since that happened. Not even at home nor school." Saddle Rager added "To be honest, I don't know. I've searched from him using his communicator and tracking chip, but they wouldn't work. Not only that, but he hasn't been seen since last week. Something fishy is going on in Maretropolis." Matterhorn said with suspicion. > Chapter 17: Alien Vs Predator Part 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike was being taken to the meeting room by GreyBack and saw 3 other yautja in the room. "Boy, these 3 are the hunters that will aid you in the hunt." GreyBack said while motioning to the 3 warriors. "Celtic, Chopper and Scar. This is Shadow Hunter. He will join your hunt for your test." The Elder said "Test?" Spike said confused "When you defeat a Xenomorph, you must Mark your face in victory to show you are a blooded warrior like Scar. Which reminds me, Celtic. Chopper, you two still have not gained your marks yet." GreyBack said Spike turned and saw the predator in question only nod at him, he had a normal appearance like Jungle, but was more armed and his helmet had a marked symbol on the top unlike his two comrades. The other two known as Celtic and Chopper simply looked and nodded, with Celtic saying "Yes master." Spike then turned to GreyBack and said "How do we do this Mark?" "When you kill an Xenomorph, you must use their claws and acidic blood to show your Mark of a blooded warrior. That will show you have become an Blooded Warrior." "Blooded Warrior?" Spike asked "It is when yautja who attend their test to show strength and that they have the final step to becoming adult warriors that can be with their clan." Spike only looked with astonishment and said "Cool. Plus I know I haven't done it, but I'll gladly stop them not just for this planet, but for yours. It's worse enough if they take another planet for their plans." GreyBack gave a proud look at the boy, until a yautja came in "Master, we're closing on the building that the Xenomorphs are targeting, where should we land?" The yautja said to GreyBack "Land it somewhere hidden, we must use surprise to fight them. They are always lurking in the shadows." The yautja in question complied and landed near the building alley and cloaked the ship as the 4 hunters got ready to begin the hunt. (Inside the building) The building was full of people, who were getting inside for one reason only. To watch 3 well known celebrities sing their hearts out for them. As the people were either buying tickets to go inside or were buying fan related material. In the meantime, there were 3 very beautiful girls in the backstage of the concert stage getting ready. There were 3 girls in the room getting ready. The first was vocalizing to perfect her singing voice in the recording room and was wearing all kinds of glamour and fashion related material. The second was in a yellow and black hairstyle and was seen applying makeup and wearing a black colored outfit. The third was a blue skinned girl with dark hair, she was putting on some makeup and her outfit and getting ready for the performance she and the other 3 were going to do on live. As they were getting ready, an backstage worker came in the room and said "Girls, get ready, your on in a few minutes." "Thanks." The girl with dark hair said The stagehand left and the girl with yellow and black hair said "Well, tonight we continue the tour after Marrtropolis and show the world our voices. Let's hope tonight, the villain attack is less worse then the last few times we toured here." "Yeah, and quite frankly, I think that we might not have to worry that much Songbird." The dark haired girl said "What do you mean Countess?" Songbird asked "Well, it's the fact that the updated news reports of what's happening to the most notorious villains in the city are a bit shocking. They say that theres a new vigilante in town and that he or she is taking the law by their hands. " These words had left Songbird shocked as she and Countess continue to speak. Songbird then saw the clock and saw that the show was going to start. "The shows about to start. I'll get Sapphire Shores to let her know." As she did so, she was unaware her and the other 2 girls were stalked by an creature hiding in the vent. The creature looked and saw the girls and after a few seconds, left to alert its offspring. It then headed to an part of the vent and then ran to its hives location. Outside the entrance, there was two bodyguards watching and making sure nobody without a ticket had entered. As they were watching over the area, the two began to converse with each other. "Do you think this city is a bit more safer?" "What do you mean safer?" The guard next to him replied "Ever since the murders that started to occur, the villains were the ones that were getting killed. Not only that, but there was a huge explosion that was reported to have destroyed almost ALL of the city." The first bodyguard said with ominous fear. His companion only replied with an tone of fear "Not only that, but the police have been increasing their numbers all over the city. From the parks, hotel and warehouses to even the security of the VIPs and celebrities like Countess Coloratura, Songbird Serenade to Sapphire Shores. It's almost as if the entire city is going into a lockdown or quarantine." "Yeah but the-" the first guard said, until there was a loud crash that came from the nearby corner. "What the hell is that?" The second guard said The two decided to give a look at the corner. They saw something twitching and went a bit closer as the second guard said "What the fuck is going on there?" The moment he said that, something near the trashcan moved and the moment the bodyguard looked. He was dragged inside and eaten while the other frightened guard was suddenly attacked and his face was obscured by an unknown thing. "GET IT OFF!? GET IT OFFFFF!!!" The guard said in fright. The guard ripped off the thing on his face and said "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!" He began to walk slowly and as he walked, he grabbed his stomach in pain. "What...The fu...AAAAAAAAAH!" He had no chance to react, for his chest was suddenly eviscerated and a big worm creature emerged and left the dead body and slithered out of the scene. > Chapter 18: Alien Vs Predator Part 3 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 4 warriors were rushing to the concert and to stop the Xenomorphs from killing the partygoers. As they were rushing to the concert. Spike, Scar, Celtic and Chopper were running from rooftop to rooftop to their location with increased adrenaline. "We need to hurry! Those things are gonna turn those people into cocoons!" Shadow Hunter/Spike said with worry and determination "Calm yourself young warrior, we will save the oomans that are dear to you." Scar said with comfort and trust. "I know, it's just that...if I lose them then I'll never forgive myself for the harm that will hurt them and other innocent lives." Shadow Hunter said The 4 warriors continued to the location, ready to not only begin the hunt. But to to also stop a world scale domination. The Concert building was filled with a large amount of people and activities that was really luxurious. All the fans had come to see the 3 notorious celebrities they knew and love. As the fans entered, the 4 hunters stealthily managed to reach a high waypoint to see the building. It was filled with a alot of fans in a line getting tickets to attend the concert. "Ok, we need to find an alternate way to kill the Xenomorphs, it's too risky since there are innocents." Shadow Hunter said "Found it. There's a skylight up on the roof we can use." Chopper said and pointed up "Good call, cloaks on." Shadow Hunter said and the 4 activated their cloaks. (Inside the concert) The fans were excited and cheering for their idols to cone on the stage and sing to them. The stage was glowing with bright lights and strobe lights were moving left and right glowing colors. Once the fans started to calm down a little, the three celebrities came in and the announcer said "People of Maretropolis, are you ready?!" The fans all cheered and roared happily with screams of joy "I can hear you! Are you ready?!" She said with a smile The fans all cheered more loudly and happily. "Then let me introduce the first person you've all been waiting for! She has the voice of an angel, she makes all our hearts flutter when she sings. Ladies and Gentlemen, give It up for SONGBIRD SERENADE!" The crowd roared with happiness and joy at having heard the announcer, who left and went backstage. The singer in question had appeared onstage, with the crowd cheering in happiness upon seeing her. Unbeknownst to her and the civilians, there was an creature in the top of the building looking down at them... (With the Predators) The 4 hunters were on the roof and slowly cutting the skylight using a new weapon Scar had. It looked like a tool that had two mini blades and when touching an object, cuts it in a circular manner. They silently crawled through the hole and entered the building. They saw they were in some kind of janitors closet. "Alright, let's do it." Shadow Hunter said as he and the 3 brothers began the hunt. The 3 walked carefully to the door and carefully opened it. Scar looked and uses his bio-mask to see what was in the next room and saw there was a Facehugger and 2 Xenomorphs guarding the area. "There are 2 Xenomorphs and Facehugger near the next door. Be careful." Scar said to his allies The other 3 nodded and Celtic quickly came and fired his Plasma Castor at them. The Facehugger and Xenomorph were both obliterated, but the second attacked him. Celtic was pinned by the creature as it clawed at him. "Eat this!" Chopper said, and he sliced it's head (directly it's mouth and face) in half with his Schmitar Wrist-blade. The Xenomorphs head slowly fell on the ground, along with its dead, faceless body. Some of its blood spilled on Celtics armor, slightly burning it as he pushed its body off him. "Thanks, but I didn't need the help." Celtic said in annoyance. Chopper ignored him and grabbed the dead Xenomorph's finger, pulling it off. He slowly marked his helmet and then slowly removed his mask, exposing his face, and slowly marked himself on his forehead. He then put the severed finger in his holster and put his mask back on, reattaching the tubes of his mask. "Let's keep going." Spike said The hunters nodded and continued their journey, Celtic meanwhile, pulled one of the dead Xenomorphs he killed severed finger and mixed it with the acid blood near the obliterated Facehugger, he then proceeded to do the same mark on his head As they continued, they heard loud music booming. "What is that noise?!" Celtic asked with anger. "Its called music. And we have to hurry." Shadow Hunter/Spike said The hunters slowly went to the door and opened it. They continued to explore their way through the building. As they did, they reached the catwalks and saw the concert was saving with strobe lights and cheering fans. Songbird was meanwhile singing to the fans and getting praised whole she did so. The hunters only looked at the beautiful singers voice and gave different reactions. Celtic was simply disgusted, Chopper was slightly impressed, Scar was only confused while Shadow Hunter was overjoyed "She sounds like an angel from heaven." Shadow Hunter said happily The 3 turned to him with unamused looks as Celtic said "Boy, we are here to save them. Not watch as they amuse us." "Sorry, it's just they are really famous and that they're really good at singing and I'm such a fan." Spike said to his fellow hunters "We can worry of that later, right now we have to worry about-" Scar said, only for a loud scream to cut him off. The scream came from the now horrified audience, who were all being attacked by the aliens. Songbird was meanwhile escorted out the stage to the back by her body guards, while the party goers were running in terror. "Alright guys, let's kick some alien ass!" Spike said And the moment he said that, the wall of the building broke, revealing 6 all too familiar female heroines. > Chapter 19: Alien Vs Predator Part 4 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The wall was broken down and the 6 heroines had burst in the concert building, their powers all ready to come into the battle. "Alright girls, time to Power Pony up!" Marvelous said The girls all got ready and as the enraged aliens roared and lunged at the beautiful heroines. The girls all fought back and attacked the opposing monsters. Blasting or killing them all in gruesome ways as their acid blood dropped and melted the ground floor. "These things have acid blood?!" Zapp said as one small drop burned a little part of her suit on the wrist. Matterhorn said "Then be careful where they land! " as she girls continued to fight off the creatures (Outside the building) The people were running from fear and Terror At the attacking monsters. Most were captured while others were slaughtered. Among the running people, an middle aged women with pink skin, rainbow hair, purple pants, gold shoes, a gold shirt with a purple and white shirt underneath. She began to run to a nearby alley "Looks like it's time to save the day!" The rainbow flowing hair woman said And there was a large light seen coming from the alley... At the same time, a bacon haired girl was seen heading to a nearby alley as well and she began to glow... "Let's see what's happening." She said as she started to transform (Back inside the building) The heroines were outnumbered and getting exhausted, the Xenomorphs had began to toy with them and their suits were torn and exposing their busts and busty posteriors through their panties and bras. The girls were fighting as much as they can, but there were too many. Even Saddle Rager and her monstrous angry form was too damaged and made her return to normal because of the acidic blood There were so many, some even acted lustful towards them to taunt them, much to their displeasure. For instance, one slapped Marvelous huge rump with its tail, causing her to jump as her butt jiggled and attack with fury, but miss as the alien roared in a cocky tone, Zapp had tried to attack, but missed, it even licked her nipple through her bra with its little mouth, causing her to savagly try to punch it with an angry look, but it easily dodged. Matterhorn was even feeling a like at her curved rear as one's tail touched it, causing her to go red and angrily attack, but miss. Shadow Hunter, seeing the whole fight, was disgusted and had enough. He fired his Plasma Castor and plasma pistol, which incinerated some of the attacking creatures. "What the hay?" Matterhorn said confused "Now!" Spike said to his fellow allies. The 4 warriors jumped and landed directly on the stage, readying their weapons. "Who in the hell?" Zapp asked of the sudden entrance "Those look like the guys from the apartment." Filli-Second commented "Wait...isn't that one with the laser blaster the one that trapped us with the net?" Saddle Rager noticed "He looks like him, plus his mask looks like the same one he wore too" Marvelous said "Wait...what are they even doing here?" Radiance had asked The girls saw all the creatures suddenly ignore them and charge at the 4 warriors, who began to fire any ranged weapon at them. Scar had used his Shuriken and Speargun, Chopper and Celtic were using their signature Plasma Castor unlike Scar, Spike was using a combination of both his Plasma Pistol and Plasma Castor as they charged. The girls were left confused at what was happening, as they saw the creatures get slaughtered from left to right, the attacking aliens then began to retreat from the hiding places they used such as exposed cracks or revealed air vents. Shadow Hunter grabbed a claw from a dead Xenomorph and put it in his belt holster, he turned around and then marked his mask and then pulled it off, marking his cheek. He then put his mask back on and put the acidic oozing severed finger back in the holster. The 4 saw the dead Xenomorphs as Scar said "Let's go, the next could be anywhere." The other 3 nodded and were about to leave, until Matterhorn said while walking up to them, reaching to Scar "Hey! We're coming with you 4 you here me?! You ugly creat-!" Scar angrily growled and turned around, causing her to back away as the girls struggled to get in fighting stances. As the 4 approached, they slowly looked at them and the dead Xenomorphs. The hunters (except Spike And in a way Celtic) looked at the girls intrigued and then stared at the Xenomorph corpses. Scar approached one of the corpses, but was halted by Shadow Hunter, who put his arm around him and gently back him away. "Looks like the nest is too big for the 4 of us to handle. I can't believe I'm saying this but we have to team up." Shadow Hunter thought Shadow Hunter/Spike approached and placed one of the dead Xenomorphs that hadn't been obliterated and pulled out a dagger. He then proceeded to delicately cut the head of a Xenomorph and pulled it off. Matterhorn/Twilight was disgusted at what the Hunter was doing and asked as he pulled the skin off "What are you doing?" Shadow Hunter did not answer and simply aimed the dagger near one of the brains pulsating lobes. The girls looked on as the Hunter focused, and then stabbed the dagger in, causing the second mouth to pop out. The girls each gasped as it moved, Hunter only looked and giggled through his mask a distorted, young voice. "Very funny" an unamused Matterhorn said, with the girls adding glares with annoyance. Shadow Hunter ignored her and said in his thoughts with disdain "That's for all the times you guys pranked me. This. Means. YOU. Pinkie and Rainbow.". The young warrior then pulled of the dead alien's finger and dropped its dripping acidic blood on the ground, the girls saw this as Matterhorn slowly nodded. He then cut the dead Serpent's tail from its sharp end and grabbed a nearby stage light. He pulled off the light and tied the sharpened end with some rope and tightened it. The other 3 did the same and made different types of weapons. The hunters handed each of the 6 heroines weapons made outfit the dead aliens. Twilight gained a sharpened spear and Xenomorph head as a shield (With the insides removed to avoid harm) from Scar and Rarity had gained a whip like weapon from Shadow Hunter using one of his strong ropes in his pack to the a sharpened end of a Xenomorph's tail, Fluttershy gained a double bladed staff from two sharpened tips and a large metal rod while Pinkie got an two swords made from the tail to an iron and wooden hilt from a nearby statue that was tied with some rope to straighten it, made by Chopper, Applejack gained a hammer like weapon from a Xenomorphs head and sharpened stick, with the mouth having a sharp blade inside and Rainbow had a double bladed spear that looked like Twilight's and also gained a shield out of one of the aliens heads, both made by Celtic. With the girls armed in case, they followed the 4 hunters to the location of stopping the hive. > Chapter 20: Alien Vs Predator Part 5 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 10 heroes were running into the backstage and began to search for any other more of the creatures. The lights were off (the only source of light was the flashlight visors on the girls masks, while the hunters had a specialized sight to see in the dark) and the walls had been sprayed with blood and green goo. As they looked around, growls and roars were heard. This made some of the heroines unsettled, while the hunters only continued to look around. Another roar was heard, but this one was far more louder then the others. "What was that?!" Saddle Rager asked in fright "Hopefully that doesn't mean there are more." Matterhorn said While they continued, something was behind Radiance. It began to slowly growl... and touched her shoulder with it's saliva Chopper heard the growling sound increase and was the first to react, and fired his speargun, the body fell and revealed a now spear face impaled Xenomorph. Radiance saw this and said to the curved masked yautja. "Oh! Um....Thank you darling." Chopper only nodded and continued with her and the others. As they continued, a loud cry was heard "HEEEEEELP!" The voice sounded like a young female, and she was in a desperate need of rescue. "Someone's in trouble!" Matterhorn said "But how do we find where they are? This place is a maze!" Zapp said with a tone of disdain. However, Scar picked up a heat signature and clicked his mandibles under his mask and motioned to the girls to follow him. "You want us to follow?" Saddle Rager asked the blooded warrior, motioning with her hands to him Scar nodded and did a "Follow me" gesture. The 10 heroes ran and followed him to the location. With the same voice screaming with horror. The moment they stopped running, they saw a horrifying sight. The place was covered with goo and there were numerous dead bodies everywhere. The dead corpses had their chests busted and their guts dismemboweled. "Oh my God.." Matterhorn said with shock The girls only continued to give looks of fear, until the voice from before screamed again. "It's coming from there." Radiance noticed The 10 walked In and saw to their horror, a bunch of dead corpses stick on the wall by a green goo like substance. The one who was screaming was revealed to be non other then a frightened and terrified Sapphire Shores. "Sapphire Shores?!" The girls all said with shock at the trapped pop singer The woman in question looked at the heroines and hunters and said "Oh thank goodness Power Ponies! I thought that those monsters got you!" The girls looked and saw that she was stuck on the wall by the green goo and was struggling to escape. The girls tried to cut the goo, but it was too sticky to be cut off. "Man, this stuff is impenetrable." Zapp said in disgust As they continued, Scar pushed them aside and motioned the other 3 hunters to come. They pulled their daggers and coated the tip with the acidic blood from their collected Xenomorph parts from their holsters. They slowly cut the gaps on the goo and pulled Sapphires freed right arm. With enough pressure, they managed to free her. The singer slowly got up and faced the heroes. "Are you ok?" Matterhorn said She nodded and was a bit shaken. As the girls looked, Radiance was comforting Sapphire. Scar noticed something on his visor and it showed 5 nests with a lot of eggs. Scar clicked his mandibles and motioned with his hands "What is it?" Matterhorn asked Scar put his hands and separated the girls with each of his brothers and Hunter. "You want us to split up?" Matterhorn asked Scar nodded and did a "follow" gesture with his hand. As they followed his lead, they saw the eggs. "Oh my Celestia!" Marvelous said "Are those eggs?" Radiance asked "And what is coming out of that one?" Saddle Rager asked The hunters saw one egg hatching and showing a Facehugger. Hunter blasted it with his Plasma pistol, obliterating it. Scar then pressed some buttons on his wrist and motioned to the girls. He did with his hands "This a bomb." "Its a bomb." Matterhorn caught on to Scar "Yeah well let's hope it kills every fucking one of these things!" Zapp added with disgust "But wait, we have to save the other civilians inside." Radiance pointed out. The other hunters were about to refuse with an shaked nod, but Hunter nodded yes. He motioned for them to split up and take care of the nests and save the hostages Shadow Hunter said to Scar to extend the time for the bomb by saying with sign from his hands. "Extend the time to at least 4 hours. We will meet at the outside a the stage." Scar, although reluctant, complied and extended the time limit. Hunter then separated the duo in teams, Matterhorn, Radiance and Sapphire with Scar, Celtic with Applejack and Rainbow Dash and Chopper with Saddle Rager and Filli-Second. Hunter opted to go alone and take care of the hostages and deal with one of the nests. With the 4 teams made, they went in separate directions to find the nests and save the civilians in danger from the aliens. (Outside the infested building) Cops and soldiers were getting slaughtered by the aliens, even Officer Sentry and Chief Iron Will were having trouble fighting them. The battle on the street was filled with gore and dead bodies "Fuck! These shit faces are crawling all over the place!" Flash said with fright "Just keep killing em!" Iron Will said As they continued to fire, there were more coming, and they ran out of ammunition, until suddenly, a large line of the creatures was suddenly sliced in nothing. "What the heck?" Flash asked confused The two were blinded by a bright light and saw to their surprise, two beautiful heroines in the air. The first was a rainbow haired, purple skinned, middle aged women in a golden armor with a sword. She was also wearing a golden tiara and blue panties white stars that tightened around her curvaceous posterior while the armor struggled to contain her humongous bust and cleavage. The second was a yellow and red haired teenage girl with her hair flowing and she was on a blue skintight suit with a yellow and red S in the middle. Her flowing came and boots were also red as her breasts bounced slightly while she flew, but more less compared to the other heroine. Her suit also was tight on her rear, to the point where the fabric was tightening on her cheeks. "Is that-?!" Flash asked confused and in shock "Solaris and her partner Sun Angel!" > Chapter 21: Alien Vs Predator Part 6 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The teams split and separated to find different parts of the nests locations. Scar took the left, Celtic took the right, Chopper the bottom and Hunter the top paths. (With Celtic, Applejack and Rainbow Dash) The 3 were slowly walking and remained vigilant for any of the creatures. As they looked around the abandoned area, they saw a red blood trail and saliva leading to a door covered in green goo. "What the hell is going in there?" Zapp asked The other 2 heard a scream coming from the dark hallway. The three realized it was coming from the door blocked by the green substance. "How the hay are we supposed to get inside?" Marvelous said The two were pushed back by Celtic, who began to charge his Plasma Castor The moment he fired, the door was obliterated and broken down. The two began to slowly walk in and saw 3 Xenomorphs. The 3 creature turned and hissed at the trio "EAT THIS!" Zapp said as she threw her spear at the first creature The other 2 lunged at the heroine, but were dealt with when Marevelous had crushed it's head with her hammer and Celtic threw his shuriken at the last, where it was sliced and diced from the projectile, which returned to Celtic. The other 2 picked up their weapons and followed the yautja The three scoped out the area. Until Celtic saw a heat signature on his bio-mask and motioned for the two to follow him. What they saw in the next room was what gave a shock to them. The room was a backstage makeup room. Until now, the place was in a state similar to where Sapphire Shores was, but there were more trapped humans still alive. "Help us!" One young male in an mikitary uniform said "Please, we don't want to die!" An adult woman in a police suit said The girls and Celtic looked around the area and saw all the trapped humans. "Don't worry. We'll get you all out of here." Zapp said Celtic only continued to scan the humans bodies. His mask showed most were fine, until the same woman said "Watch out!" The 3 saw a leaping Facehugger about to hit Marevelous, but Celtic shot his speargun at it, impaling it on the wall. "Thanks." Marvelous said to the muscular predator Celtic didn't reply and looked at the gooey green wall. He pulled out his dagger and cut the ooze off. The imprisoned humans were freed and the girls continued to free the remaining civilians. "Hurry, we need to go before the bomb goes off!" Zapp said "Bomb!?" The freed hostages said "There was a bomb placed here and we have a few hours left before it goes off. Let's move." Marvelous said Celtic however, motioned for them to follow him and Zapp asked "What's wrong?" He did a "follow me" gesture with his arm and the girls complied and saw to their horror, another nest with a girl being dragged by a Xenomorph to one of the eggs. Marevelous's eyes were wide when she recognized the girl "Rara!" The alien however, heard and turned its attention to them and lunged at Celtic and pinned him on the ground, until Marevelous smashed it away to a wall. Celtic with a quick grab of his combi-stick, impaled the creature in the head. "Are you ok?" Marvelous asked Rara as she comforted her "Yes, thank you Mistress Marevelous." Rara said Celtic then meanwhile proceeded to push buttons on his wrist gauntlet. The device was in fact an bomb like Scar's and he then threw it at the nest. Celtic ran and motioned for the girls to follow him and run with a "Hurry up" gesture with his hands from his wrist to them "Looks like he put the bomb on!" Zapp said "Then let's get all the hostages and run!" The 3 then rounded up all the hostages and ran to the exit (With Chopper, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie) The team of Chopper, Filli-Second and Saddle Rager was looking through the building and walked around the area with vigilance. As they walked, An Xenomorph slowly appeared behind Saddle, and was about to bite her "Oh no you don't!" Filli-Second said She had slashed its face off with her sword weapon, and it was dead instantly, with it's face peeling off and its body falling on the ground. As they walked around, they saw another nest with some Xenomorphs guarding the area. The 3 jumped and attacked and killed the 3. But Saddle was injured when the last one had its acidic blood burn her left ankle. "Saddle Rager!" Filli-Second said in shock and worry "Ow. My ankle is burnt." She said as she tried to walk, but limped in pain. Chopper managed to stop her and balance her stance. He grabbed her leg and looked at it and pulled a spray bottle out his belt and sprayed a bit of it on the heroine's wound. After he stopped, he pulled some bandages out and wrapped them on her leg. "Thank you." Saddle Rager smiled Chopper simply replied by patting her head gently "Aww, he likes you!" Filli-Second teased The two blushed and looked away from each other and focused on the mission. Chopper pulled out his wrist gauntlet and pressed buttons on it. After he stopped he threw it at the eggs and the 3 ran, with Chopper picking up Saddle Rager/Fluttershy bridal style and heading to the exit. The heroine blushed as the predator held her in his arms "Oh....my. His arms feel so soft and...." Saddle Rager blushed as she was being carried, resting her head on his soft, green skin. (With Scar, Twilight, Rarity and Sapphire Shores) The 3 heroes and the pop singer were fighting from Xenomorph to Xenomorph to reach the second to last nest. Sapphire was meanwhile hiding behind then to avoid being hit from their attacks. "Just a few more!" Matterhorn said as the number of the creatures began to decrease The 3 continued to fight until a large and loud roar screeched across the area. The attacking auebs stopped and retreated and moved to the insides of the stage to another location. "That takes care of them." Radiance said in relief "For now" Matterhorn notified as she and the other 3 continued. "Help..." a voice said with pain "What was that?" Sapphire asked Scar saw the human in question and pointed to the location of the voice. The 3 girls looked and the person's identity shocked Twilight "Cadence!?" "Help..me. Please." The woman pleaded Matterhorn desperately tried to remove the goo with her spear, but it would not come off. "I need help!" She said, The other 2 tried to rip the goo off, but it wouldn't pull. Scar, however had an idea. He pushed the girls back and blasted his Plasma Castor at an exposed gash of the substance wall. The goo not only was incinerated, but allowed the girls to cut Cadence free. The woman hugged Matterhorn while Scar began to press another of his wrist-gauntlets and threw another bomb at the eggs, Scar then quickly turned to the girls and pointed at his wrist and eggs and made a boom hand motion "He put the bomb on! We have to go now!" Matterhorn said This shocked the other girls, while Radiance nodded and led the other 2 saying "Hurry, we must leave at once!" "Follow him!" Matterhorn pointed at Scar, and Cadence nodded Scar then ran out the room with the other 4 in pursuit to exit the building and reach the other girls. > Chapter 22: Alien Vs Predator Part 7 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shadow Hunter was in the backstage room and scoping out all the rooms for any sign of activity for either Xenomorphs or Facehuggers. As he searched for any survivors. A loud screech was heard. The Hunter knew full well that it was another Xenomorph, only this one sounded more deep and masculine. However, he saw no form of movement his visor and continued his way. As he was moving, he saw a trail of dead bodies stuck on the wall, consisting of either innocent civilians or military or police. He looked on and said in his mind "These things aren't going anywhere." He continued his path, until an all to familiar voice was heard. "...Help...." The young Hunter hears the dying voice and turned to the corner of the gooey filled room. He saw to his horror 3 figures he easily recognized. They were none other then his adoptive parents Twilight Velvet and Night Light and their granddaughter Flurry Heart. The young warrior was horrified and enraged at the same time, these creatures dare attack them even though he still had it out for them?, especially a baby?! He only looked on in pity as they struggled, Flurry was even quivering in fear as the darkness and screeches frightened her innocent, young view. Spike had then suddenly pulled out his dagger and began to cut the goo off. He pulled the 3 out, even holding the little baby Flurry in his arms soothing her with a soothing lullaby (and scanned with his mask if she had an embryo in her, which to his relief, she didn't). The two adults looked at their savior in surprise as Velvet said "Thank you so much sir! We've been trapped by those things and we've tried to escape but they keep finding us." The Hunter only replied by scanning her and her husband, but they had no embryos in them. He then handed the soothed and sleeping Flurry to Velvet, who held her tightly and wouldn't let go. He then did a "Follow Me" gesture with his hands and they did so. As they continued, Velvet spoke with her husband. She had a look of either remorse or guilt, which her husband caught on too. "What's the matter dear?" Night Light asked "It's nothing." "Honey come on. I know when you want to say something you'd usually very to forget it. Please tell me." Velvet only gave a look of further horror and said "It's the fact we found out that Spike ran away from home dear. I can't believe both us and our children had acted as if he was some thing we could use. I mean I understand that what Shining, Cadence and Twilight did was wrong, but us? We were supposed to be his parents. His family. And we didn't do it." Night Light only responded with a grim voice and saddened facial expression and simply said "I know. I can't believe all the times we acted as if we thought he was some sort of animal. If I could rewind time and apologize to him. I would. But it might be too late." "I just wish my little boy was back in my arms and home again. I can't take the fact that we basically abandoned him his whole life. We always treated Twilight and Shining and even Flurry here as equally, but we couldn't give that to him. Even the letter that we found saying he's running away even said..." Velvet was about to finish, but Night Light stopped her and pointed at Flurry. Twilight Velvet, despite hesitating, only nodded her head as she walked. Flurry, who was in Velvet's arms simply slept, but said in a little meek, cute voice "...Pike...S...pike" The two only looked at the sleeping baby girl with smiles, then turned to the young warrior and followed him. Hunter, having heard the entire conversation as they walked simply gave a look of sadness under his mask. He only continued to walk and think about the two adoptive parents he once loved. The letter I sent them.....they actually know?....it doesn't matter anyways, they didn't bother even caring. Not only that, but whenever I try to do something nice for them, they act as if I ruined everything like the Sibling Supreme with Twilight and Shining, where I won, but they said I cheated even when they technically did and disqualified me. The warrior then continued to path of the nest and thought once more. I guess they know that the cuts on my chest and arm's last summer were from me when I was...cutting. It's not like it matters to them anymore now. The warrior shed a tear under his mask, but did not reveal it to the 3 family members he once had. For they saw the nest of eggs. He pushed buttons on his wrist gauntlet and motioned with his hands to the 3 a boom hand motion. "Your gonna blow up those eggs?" Night asked Hunter nodded as he threw the now activated device at the nest of eggs. He then ran and motioned for the 3 to follow him and run. They did and as they ran, they saw more of the creatures behind them. Velvet then shouted to the two as she carried Flurry "RUN!" They ran faster and managed to reach the exit door, which the Hunter had broken down with a savage kick. As they were about to exit, one alien grabbed Velvet. "AAAAAH!" she screamed The two noticed and saw Flurry about to be eaten, but Night pulled out a gun and shot the one holding Velvet while Hunter saved Flurry Heart and shielded the two from the acidic blood, slightly damaging his armor. They ran and saw the outside city. They ran and saw the Power Ponies and the 3 other hunters together with the hostages saved, including Rara, Sapphire and Songbird (Who escaped using a back entrance with 2 of her bodyguards and the aid of police officer Flash Sentry) along with a damaged blockade of evacuated civilians and police and military along with Solaris and Sun Angel and a bunch of military and SWAT vans. The building then suddenly exploded and blew down to the ground, crushing and frying away at all the creatures and their eggs. "WHOA!!" The girls, Cadence, Velvet and Night all said in shock As the building collapsed, Velvet handed Flurry to her mother Cadence, who hugged her sleeping daughter and wouldn't let go as she ran to a relieved police sergeant, her husband Shining Armor. "That. Was. AWESOME!" Zapp said as she and the heroes looked at the now destroyed concert building > Chapter 23: Alien Vs Predator Part 8 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The heroines and the hunters were looking at the now destroyed building that had crumbled to the ground. The civilians all cheered for the heroines, but the hunters did not care. As they looked at the wreckage, Sapphire and Rara were safely taken to the evacuation, while the hunters turned and faced to their respective teammates. Scar faced Matterhorn and Radiance and slowly began to pull the tubes off his mask. The two heroines only stared at what was to come. Scar, with a light pull, removed his mask, revealing his face to the now shocked girls and civilians. The civilians were all surprised at his facial appearance, some even said "What the heck is up with his face? "Is he an alien?!" "Whatever he is, he looks pretty cool!" He roared at the two, but none of the two girls flinched (Radiance slightly gulped down her throat when his mandibles flared). Scar clicked his mandibles as he simply gazed at the two girls. They were worthy humans/oomans to him for showing great bravery and honor in battling the Serpents. He pulled off an severed Xenomorph claw out of his belt and held it near Matterhorn's cheek. Matterhorn looked at Scar and noticed the mark on his forehead. She realized that he was going to do the same with her and mark her a warrior. Without any hesitance, she showed her left cheek. Scar, with a slow move started from the top and slowly moved down, Matterhorn gave a tiny gasp, but fought the pain as Scar continued gently. He then continued to the bottom and moved slowly, finishing and showing an new mark on Matterhorn, showing her strength as a warrior. Scar turned his attention to Radiance, who quickly protested "Oh no! I'm not letting him ruin my makeup and beauty with a scar!" Scar tilted his head, while Matterhorn said in a scolding tone "Radiance, show some respect! He and his friends helped us and we should show some gratitude to them." Hunter walked up to Radiance and took the finger from Scar, who slowly nodded in acceptance. Hunter walked up to her and instead of her face, grabbed her hand and slowly marked it. Radiance slightly squealed in pain as he continued, but he finished. She took a good look and saw the mark was on the middle of her wrist on an exposed part of her suit on her arms. "Well... I guess this is better." Radiance said with acceptance Scar only looked at Hunter with a look of question. Hunter only said quietly "Don't try. Last time something like this happened, she tried to kill the person with a high heel shoe." Scar only gave a look of surprise and looked at her Scar turned to Chopper next, who only looked at the two heroines. He first turned to Filli-Second. Who only gave a smile to the blooded warrior, much to his confusion and slight fear. With a slow move, Chopper proceeded to mark her left cheek and make it gentle and quick. The fast heroine fought the pain and when he finished, the mark she had was slightly smaller then Matterhorn's. Next was Saddle, who said in a meek tone "Please be gentle." Chopper, likely understanding, nodded his head and slowly marked her soft left cheek. He slowly moved from the top as the shy girl let out a cute and tiny gasp as he gently continued to the bottom and make the last part of the Blooded mark. When he finished, he looked at the two girls and bowed his head in respect and even patted Saddle Rager's shoulder to show his respect. The 3 turned to Celtic, who still clearly refused as Scar said in yautja "(You know you have to Celtic.)" Chopper agreed by nodding along with Scar's answer, but didn't voice it. "(I'm not going to mark one that shows themselves to be prideful and arrogant like these two.)" Celtic coldly refused "(Yet you do the same thing each time on hunts like this one. Show some decency.)" Chopper notified his brother "(Fine!)" Celtic said begrudgingly. "(And at least TRY to be gentle this time.)" Scar added in a firm tone "And trust me, with these two with their arrogance and stubbornness compared to your pride. I think you three are a good team." Hunter said in a distorted deep voice on his mask (Imagine the Arkham Knight voice) Celtic, although annoyed at the fact he was told, gave a reluctant look. He pulled out a severed Xenomorph finger from his belt and first went to Zapp, who said to Celtic as he was ready. "Come on, let's see how hard it is." Celtic then as gently as he could, slowly moved the finger to her right cheek. Starting from the top, making the first part of the mark, Zapp slightly winced as the acid burned her cheek, but fought it. He then moved down and made the last part of the symbol and finished. Celtic turned to Marvelous next, who only faced him with a determined look. He quickly started on her left cheek and marked her slowly. Marvelous fought the pain as he continued. As he finished, he did quick work on the bottom part of the symbol. Showing her as a warrior. Hunter was next and he turned to Night Light, who was with his wife and granddaughter. He only looked at the Hunter as he pulled out a Xenomorph finger. And realized he was going to mark him too. "Your gonna do me as well?" Night Light asked in surprise "You saved me and your family, you show with honor in killing a Serpent you are a good warrior." Hunter replied. Night Light although reluctant, complied and turned his cheek and Hunter gently marked him as quick as he could, with his wife, Matterhorn, Shining, Cadence and Flurry (Who's eyes were being covered to not see the painful sight) giving looks of either fear, shock, surprise or uneasiness as he was being marked. When Hunter finished, he saw that Night Light has a mark of the warrior. He was capable of honor and defending his family like his children. Hunter then bowed his head in respect and turned to the brothers. Who only began to press their wrist gauntlet to call for a ride back to the ship. As they did, a loud crack was heard. "What was that?!" Radiance said in shock Her answer was an enraged large Xenomorph suddenly emerging from the rubble, ready to attack her children's killers. The nearby civilians gave horrified looks while the heroes looked on with shock. "WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT THING!?" Matterhorn shouted with horror "The Queen." Hunter said with an disgusted tone. The 3 brothers and Hunter roared with rage and fury at her while the Power Ponies, Solaris and Sun Angel entered in battle stances, ready to attack the large menace. > Chapter 24: Alien Vs Predator Part 9 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The massive, huge, monstrous mother creature charged at the heroes with an enraged screech. As the heroes, backed up, Scar started the fight by reloading his speargun and firing it at her. The spears hit her in her chest and neck. With a quick grab of his shuriken, he threw it and it sliced off part of her crown. He prepared to throw again, but he was knocked away by her tail, into a nearby van. She turned to the others and they each attacked all together, even some of the soldiers and police pulled out guns and shot at her (Including Night, Flash, Shining and Iron Will), but the Queen had held out. She roared and attacked them each. "EAT THIS YOU UGLY EGG LAYING MOTHERFUCKER!!!" Hunter shouted as he fired his Plasma pistol at her. The blast scarred a side of her head, but angered her as she slapped him away with her tail, but he landed on his feet and helped Scar. The girls each tried to suppress the creature, with Matterhorn saying to some of the police officers "Hurry, get all the civilans to safety before it comes back!" "WHAT?! Matterhorn that's insane, she's too strong to be distracted!" Flash protested "HURRY DAMMIT!!!" She shouted, more serious. Flash, although reluctant, complied and shouted "Alright Team Alpha and Charlie stays here, Bravo team. Evacuate Civilians Now! I repeat. EVACUATE Civilians NOW!" The teams complied and followed the officers orders. As the heroes continue to fight the mother, they each began to attack. The Queen was spilling her blood all over the ground, burning the street floor as she tried to fight the pain. With enough strength, she entered a savage frenzy. Solaris and Sun Angel attacked her, and Solaris sliced off a part of her large head and Sun Angel using heat vision to burn the half sliced crown off her skin, but she managed to knock Solaris away into a building with her tail and Sun Angel into a nearby sign. As the heroes managed to attack, she kicked away Celtic and Chopper as they both fired their plasma castors at her. The two hit a nearby SWAT van. The girls were trying to hurt her all they could and succeeded, but also angered her more. She roared in the sky and jumped each of the girls. As the Power Ponies had used their improvised weapons against her, she roared in the sky with pain or fury and grabbed Matterhorn and Marevelous and was about to eat them. "NO!" The girls said in horror at the sight. Just as she opened her mouth, she dropped them and roared in pain. The girls saw she had a spear impaled in the side of her head from none other then Shadow Hunter, who landed on his feet and roared with fury. The boy saw as she was flailing in pain a chain connected from her back, he then looked at a army truck with crates in the back having the warning in red color EXPLOSIVES and shouted to the girls. "Girls!, get the others up! I have an idea!" The heroines did so and reached the beaten Scar, Celtic and Chopper. They managed to help them up from their beaten states and led them to Hunter, who began to pull the chain and try to tie it to an nearby Military truck. The girls saw what he was doing and helped tie the chain, with Zapp successfully managing to hook it to the back while the others pulled. The brothers saw what they were doing and eventually came to help pull the chain, with Solaris and Sun Angel joining as well by pushing the military truck onto a near Crack of destroyed street crater. They however had trouble grappling with the Queen and her resistance. Until a familiar voice said "Mind if we help?" The heroes turned and saw none other then Flash, Night and Iron Will. They quickly nodded and they joined the struggle. As they tied the chain, they then proceeded to try and push the truck to the crack, but the amounts of heavy crates made them use more force. "Come on! Come ON!" Iron Will shouted As they pushed, the Queen had dislodged the spear and was now incredibly infuriated. She saw as they pushed at the truck and roared in horror when she saw her chain tied. "(PUSH!!)" Scar shouted his mandibles in his language. With a final heave, the truck was pushed and the Queen had slid on the ground to the demolished building crater. As the heroes backed away, the enraged mother had slid like a hockey puck down the crater and was about use one more strike against one of the heroes, as her sharp tail sped at Matterhorn, who looked in horror as the tail sped at her. Shadow Hunter saw the danger and angrily said to the monster "GET AWAY FROM HER YOU BITCH!!!!" The young Hunter fired his plasma pistol with fully charged blast, completely incinerating a part of her tail, but unfortunately, he suddenly roared in pain. The Queen with the last ounce her strength, had impaled the boy in the gut. As he hung in the air, he sliced off the tail with his wrist-blade, causing him to fall on the ground wounded,with the hunters treating his wounds. As she desperately grabbed the cracked surface, she managed to grab the two closest to her, Iron Will and Flash, with her teeth, biting their legs in her mouth. "GAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Flash screamed as they were being dragged. He got his left leg free, but his right was about to be eaten. "FLASH!" Matterhorn said as she rushed to save him. As she pulled to save him, he was being pulled back and forth in tug of war. As they were being pulled, Iron Will said to Flash with a serious look "Sergeant Sentry?" "Yes Sir?" "Do you love this lovely heroine?" The two looked at each other with blushes. As they looked at each other, he said "Yes sir, I love her as much as I can despite our social differences. The hunters even showed me that they aren't evil in spite of their actions." "Then I want you to promise me something and remember." Iron Will firmly stated "Yes Boss?" "I want you to find a cherish her or anybody else you love and marry no matter what. Because you've been promoted to Lieutenant." "Sir?! What about you?!" Iron Will did not answer and simply replied by emptying his rifle at the Queen's face, who screamed and opened her mouth, allowing Flash to escape, while Iron Will only smiled as she grabbed hom and pulled him with her. Yet he managed to secretly set off a belt of grenades. After a few seconds. The crater exploded in a fiery worldwind and incinerated them both. The heroes only looked in shock as the ordeal was finally over until, they saw the brothers treating their fallen ally. They rushed over and saw the state he was in. "(Are you ok?)" Scar said to Hunter "Yeah.....i....I've had worse." He replied. "(Look we need to help him!, he's losing blood fast)" Chopper said in worry. The girls all looked at the sight of the hunter laying on the ground in pain. As he lied there, a ship suddenly came in the area. The ship door revealed none other then Greyback and another Elder predator with 4 more who were bringing a stretcher. They looked on and saw the mortally wounded hunter. Greyback was horrified his adoptive son was hurt and thus said to the 4 yautja "(Take him to the medical bay, hurry!)" They took him in the ship in a hurry, with the 3 hunters following them as the ship was about to leave. > Chapter 25: Recovery > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Inside the ship) The yautja medics surrounded the boy as they operated on him, they managed to remove the tail from his gut, but he was seriously wounded and blood was spilling from him. As they treated him, they did all they could to ensure that the young Hunter would at least be in a stable condition. GreyBack was meanwhile, waiting outside the medical room with a worried look on his face. He face the ground as the medics were operating on him. As they did, he encountered his friend, Ancient. "Ancient? What are you doing here?" GreyBack asked "I'm here because I've not only have been looking for you, but we didn't honor the last warrior that fought the queen." "And Scar, Celtic and Chopper?" "They were honored already as they followed when we were about to leave. As for the oomans that they marked, they spoke to me about how we didn't honor their comrades. They asked me to help and I did." GreyBack nodded and as he turned, the door to the medical room had opened, a yautja came in and said to GreyBack. "Master? The boy is stable and alive, but he will have to remain here for a few days so we can make sure he gets some proper time to heal and rest." The Elder predator was relieved that his adoptive son and protege was ok. GreyBack asked "May I see him?" The medic nodded and followed GreyBack as he had went in the room without a second thought. He looked at the table and saw his adoptive son on his back, seriously injured but alive. As he looked at his son's injured state, he only looked on and felt sorrow or grief at being a reason for his condition. Spike, meanwhile, only looked at his adoptive father and smiled saying "Father, we've done it. We stopped the Serpents from causing harm." The predator only nodded and gave a proud and happy smile saying "I'm proud of you my child, you've shown yourself to be a great hunter of honor, even if it is to those that have wronged you or if you had broke some of our rules." Spike only gave a happy smile back and rested on the table, as he faced the top of the ceiling of the medical room. Spike only gave a look and turned his head to his adoptive father. "Um..Father?" "Yes, my child?" "I kinda have some questions to ask you." GreyBack listened and said "Anything for you my son." "When I was fighting the girls, I suddenly went berserk and transformed, I didnt mention it because I thought it was something normal for yautja. But I started to feel more pain in my body. It died down but it came back a bit. Do you know some thing about it?" GreyBack gave a look of surprise and said "No, of course not, plus we have almost normal human traits, but not this. I'm going to run a scan on you and your x-rays, hold still." GreyBack scanned his body and saw a black, shadowy like crystal inside of the boy's chest pulsating a dark green and bloody red color. "There's something in your stomach, it's not an Serpent newborn, it looks like a sharp crystal." The medic said "We found that in his surgery, we tried to remove it but it wouldn't come off, let alone move. It even helped while we operated on him, it healed some of his arteries as we had to operate on his stomach and gut. " The 3 were left astonished as they looked at the boy. The pulsating stopped and nothing happened. "I guess that answers the first question, so I guess we'll drop it for now." The 2 nodded reluctantly as Spike asked his next question. "When you had saved me from being killed a month ago by the Legion of Doom, why DID you save me. And more importantly? Why recruit me and not the other girls?" GreyBack was surprised at his question, but knew that this would at some point come up and sighed his breath. With a slow breathe, he faced the boy and said. "When our planet was in jeopardy from the Bad-Bloods, we were searching for an individual that showed great honor and accord in him herself. We had found many, but they had not succeeded in the hunt. When we came here to search for an worthy hunter. We came across you and your allies, we saw that you fought honorably and strictly to your own morals before we had met you. The reason your friends were not chosen was because they had not shown honor and kept on using you as a form of leverage against your own life." Spike was surprised at his statement, but GreyBack continued "After I discovered the attack from an Bad-Blood before you joined, I realized that when you were framed, your own kin did not trust you, let alone acknowledge your claims or facts. I realized that you had great potential compared to each of them. That when I saw you, I saw not just a hunter, but an hero." Spike was surprised at his words. GreyBack truly saw him as a person even though the two weren't even the same species. But being chosen just like that from beings in the sky? That was what made him feel even more shocked. As he faced his father, he gave a look of surprise at what he said, up and said "So your saying you've been looking for heroes all around the world to fight the creatures and Bad-Bloods that were terrorizing planets so they could be stopped for good?" "Yes. I understand how you feel of you do not trust me. When I saw you when you were heartbroken about your ooman friends, I never felt an any happier to see you as my son. " Spike quickly moved his head up and said while getting up and sitting on the examining table. "No. I do trust you. It's just that ever since this whole mess started, I've been trying to get them to notice me and make me feel like an equal and not use me all the time. But during the fight with the Queen, I realized that even though I left them, they don't deserve to suffer as much. Plus if I had never met you, I would never have become a greater person now." The two smiled at each other and hugged tenderly. The two had truly developed a strong bond of love and friendship for each other and would never do anything to hurt their bond. After they stopped hugging, Spike looked at his adoptive father and said "Plus, I think it's best I forgive the girls. It's been so long that I've basically done nothing more then push them away and tell them off to the point where they all nearly end up getting killed or worse. But that doesn't mean where friends, i can't forget what they did to me that caused me so much pain, even with you and my real friends. " "Then if you will forgive them, what will you see them as?" GreyBack replied Spike only gave a look of dismay and said "I think it's best we remain acquaintances. I mean after all this, I don't think I can ever go back." GreyBack nodded with understanding at the boy and asked once more "And when do you plan to tell them?" Spike only responded "Tomorrow is the last day of school, and I heard that they are bringing their families in to bond with each other at a party. I was gonna ask if you can go but.." The Elder only smiled in amusement and said "I know and I'm coming." "You are?!" Spike said "Yes. I feel it is only fair if I show my love for you aside from your hunts." "Ok, but the question is, how are you going to enter without exposing yourself?" Spike asked GreyBack replied by pressing a button on his wrist-gauntlet, and he suddenly had an human appearance. He appeared to be muscular, had his signature bangs and armor and dark green like skin with brown eyes, his appearance consisted of a human in his mid-20's and with half his youth. He pressed the button again to return to his normal appearance Spike then said with surprise "Oh the disguises you guys use to protect yourselves. That's brilliant!" GreyBack nodded and said to the young warrior "Now get some rest, tomorrow is not just a big day for you, but also we have to make sure your wounds are fully healed properly." Spike nodded and said with an happy smile "Goodnight father." "Goodnight son." GreyBack replied and left the room to let his son rest his injuries. > Chapter 26: School Bash Part 1 (Party Time) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was now Thursday and the last day for school had come. As the young boy was getting up, having recovered from his wounds, but trying to ease up on his injury. He was accompanied to the school by an human disguised GreyBack, Jungle and City. "Are you sure us coming was a good idea?" Forest/Jungle asked Spike "Yes, I feel like I should bond with you guy and show some customs you might think is cool." Spike responded As the three were heading in the school, they caught the attention of most of the students. As they walked into the school to the gymnasium. The gym was filled party decorations and foods. There were many students with parents or siblings and each were having fun either eating or playing party games. As they partied, the 4 gave different reactions. As the students and their families came in and begam to sit in the assigned chairs facing the stage, Principal Celestia and Vice Principal Luna had came on the stage and pulled a microphone out. Celestia, with a quick clear of her throat said while tapping the Mic to check it "Students of Canterlot! Today I bring an very special announcement today. As you have all known, today is the last day of the school year this semester. I've been wanting to let you all know that it has been a great and lovely year with all of you as students and the days you've spent here with us talking to friends, teachers and us. But even though today might be the last day for your school year, we have a special surprise for all of you before you leave to enjoy your summer. I will let Vice Principal Luna now take the stand." Celestia left the Mic and Vice Principal Luna came and took the Mic, she said with a smile "Hello honorable students, as you've already known that today is the last day of the school year, and that you will go and continue on to pursue your life dreams and careers for the future. I have been really happy and excited to have you all here in this school to not only study and work hard, but also spend time with friends and family that are with you now. It has been my pleasure to be with you all in this fantastic school year." The students all cheered in delight at her words. As she then said woth a smile "Everyone, follow me outside to the soccer field!" All the students and parents did so and followed her out of the gym to the field. Once they had reached the field, the entire school body saw it was filled with different kinds of games or booths such as racing in a bouncy house, waterballoon fights, snack stands and even a dunk tank with Mr. Discord at the top in green and brown boxers with a look of annoyance. Spike turned to his adoptive brothers and father and said "So what should we do first?" The three looked around at the activities taking place, until Jungle suggested "How about we test the bouncy house race?" "Good idea!" Spike agreed The 4 agreed and went to the bouncy house activity. Spike had bought some tickets from the stand and saw who his opponent was. Soarin "Soarin?, What are you doing here?" Spike asked "Oh hey Spike, I'm just here to win the prize for first place." "Which is?" "A pie that's a rare delicacy made from the Apple Family!" Spike only gave a unsurprised look at him, while the 3 hunter turned him and only gave confused looks. "Is he always like this?" Urban/City asked the boy "Eh, most of the time." Spike answered. "In 3.2.1.....GO!!" The game booth employee said The two boys started and raced across the bouncy castle, bouncing around the helium filled contraption. Although Soarin was strong and agile, Spike was able to get to the ladder thanks to his enhanced reflexes and strength from the yautja blood in his bloodstream. As he reached the year-end, he climbed the ladder and reached the finish, with Soarin close behind. "Congratulations Mr. Drake! You've won first place in the bouncy castle race. You have earned a rare Apple pie made by the famous Apple Family!" Spike followed him and got the pie, which the employee placed it in plastic wrap to make sure it doesn't get damaged. He handed the pie to Spike, with Soarin giving a look of dismay at the boy and his victory. As the boy was walking, he placed the pie in his bag to eat later, he witnessed alot of people at the dunk tank booth trying to hit the button with a baseball to dunk Mr. Discord. "Hey guys! Let's try over at the dunk booth!" Spike said happily "Ok son" GreyBack happily said and followed him into the line. As the 4 got in the line, the next volunteer was Rainbow Dash, who managed to throw the ball, missing on the first, but dunking him on the second. "Aw yeah! That's right!" Rainbow Dash boasted at her victory. Spike was up next and was about to throw the ball, until GreyBack whispered to him "Be careful boy, your strength may be better, but use half of your power so it won't expose your power from th fragment inside of you." Spike nodded and walked up front with a baseball, he gave a deep breath and readied his stance. With a swift heave, he threw the ball. The round projectile was flying right at the button and was giving amounts of strength and speed in its destination. The moment the ball hit the trigger, the button was pushed and Mr. Discord fell into the water tank. "Yeah!" All the students said at the boy's victory. The boy was hoisted up in the air bybhis adoptive family and gave a happy cheer of excitement. As they lifted him up however, an all to familiar voice had said "Spike?" The boy and his adoptive family turned and saw none other then the Sparkle Family "What are you doing here?" Shining asked "Its school, I'm supposed to show up aren't I?" Spike replied in half stoic tone. "Son, you have no idea how much we missed you. We want you to come home." Night Light pleaded "I am home." Spike answered "Sweetie, please! We never knew how much we kept on hurting you. We just wish you were back home with us. I want nothing more then to apologize for what we all did." Twilight Velvet begged "I know and that's why I forgive you and the other girls." Spike answered "You do?" Twilight said happily "Yes but-" "So are you coming home?" Velvet said with joy "I wasn't finished." Spike cut her off The family was silent as he continued while the students and teachers watched "I may forgive you but that doesn't mean I'll forget it either. You guys outright betrayed my trust and never acted as if I was one of you." The girls were happening on the scene, as they stuck by Twilight with looks of surprise and dismay at the boy and his statement. "When I was young, you took me in and it was the best moment I had in my life. And then you just had to rain on it like it was nothing. I thought I could trust you. In fact I thought all of YOU were better then this. But look where that turned out. But if it makes you feel better, i hope we can be acquaintances." "Look we're sorry that-" Rainbow said "No. Lay off!" Urban said "Don't Urban" Jungle said to his brother "What? Forest, have you forgotten these are the ones that caused him to almost DIE a couple times?! You think that they would know a thing of trust, let alone friendship like they said? Not even close! Plus WE are way more of a family to him then them!" Urban said with disdain. "But we-" Applejack said, but was cut off "No! Ok, YOU always act honest, but your never honest with yourself like you say you are, Miss Cowgirl who screws People into Apple Juice!" Urban said in disgust, shocking Applejack and her family, who were behind her as this happened He then turned his attention to Rainbow Dash and Pinkie "YOU TWO don't even know when to take a hint and shut up. Not to mention you use your own qualities as a way of justification like Rainbow. You say your loyal to your friends, but treat him like shit! Pink Bitch over here acts like he cares and throws parties for everybody when she just does that for her own amusement. I'm even amazed how she isn't dead from diabetes. " The 2 girls were left shocked and saddened and the warriors words, with Pinkie's hair deflating not at the insult, but from the way he proved her hypocrisy. Urban, with now more disgust and hatred said to Fluttershy and Sunset Shimmer "And YOU TWO, Animal queen is just nothing but a jerk only uses sympathy to get kindness from others, in fact, I'm pretty sure those animals are only nice to you because you have good looks. Bacon Tyrant over here acts as if she's reformed but is just doing that so she can get more popularity from everyone that she knows hates her ass! " The 2 were shocked at the warriors harsh words, Fluttershy gave a look of sadness and looked down in tears while Sunset only widened her eyes in emotional pain, as she cried a few tears from her past being remembered. Their families only looked with anger at the young yautja in human form Urban, this time with more disgust and fury at Twilight and Rarity "AND YOU TWO! You two are just both overall nothing but gold diggers, cheaters and borderline hypocrites. I'm even surprised all these people here are too borderline stupid to even bother, but them again, all their pathetic little brains care about is greed and wealth." The words of the city hunter shocked the girls and entire audience, with some even glaring at the hunter while others were left shocked in disbelief, with Spike saying "Urban, THAT'S ENOUGH!!" Spike said as he pushed him back However, Night Light angrily said "Nobody insults my DAUGHTER!" He lunged at the hunter, but was held back by Velvet and Twilight, while Spike and Jungle held back Urban. "ENOUGH!!!" A mature voice said The audience turned and saw Principal Celestia and Luna with looks of fury and disdain "What is going on here?!" Luna asked in strict anger They were unaware that the hunters already left. The hunters and Spike were in the empty cafeteria room. As they sat at an empty table, the 3 were giving disappointed looks at Urban, with GreyBack being the most disgusted. "Urban, why did you do that?" Spike asked "I was defending you! They made you miserable!" Urban said "That doesn't give you the right to outright make them feel bad about themselves and their lives." Jungle said to his brother "Not only that, but you have crossed a line when you demoralized them of their honor son." GreyBack said with a disappointed tone. Urban was surprised and said "Why are you defending them?! They are the enemy here!" "They may be enemies but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't show qualms of mercy! Not only that but I specifically told you to control your temper!" Jungle notified his brother with anger. "Not only that, But that doesn't give you the right to degrade them so harshly, I mean, I did it a little, but I was only being as easy as I could on them. You only showed them how harsh the truth was and let it cloud your judgement." Spike added Urban wanted to argue, but he couldn't find the right words to retort, as he was about to say something, GreyBack told him. "Your grounded for a month, after that, your going to apologize to the girls. I'm not even sure if the entire student body is likely possible from what you said." GreyBack told his son in dismissal. Urban said nothing and merely sat at the far side of the table, saying nothing. (A few hours later) The boys were either eating or still sitting as they laid their heads on the table in silence. As they did, an mature woman's voice was heard. "There you are!" The 4 saw it was simply Celestia, who only looked at them with an unreadable blank expression. "Yes Principal Celestia?" "I wish to see you EACH in my office." "It's alright, I understand that what my son said was wrong, but I assure you he is going to be punished-" "Not that. I wish to speak to you each in my office. Its important." She escorted the 4 out the cafeteria, leaving them slightly worried about what was to come. > Chapter 27: School Bash Part 2 (Amends?) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Principal Celestia was escorting the 4 boys to her office. They were both worried and scared at the same time. As they walked, they reached the office, where they sat down. As they looked at the two well-endowed principals, they only gave simple scowls at the 4. As the silence swept around the dark room. The Vice Principal/Luna decided to break it and say "Well? What do you each have to say for yourselves?" "About the argument or something else?" Jungle asked "Don't try and play smart with me. I'm referring to the situation that had occurred outside the soccer field." The 3 looked with scowl at a guilt ridden Urban, who said "I know, I'll take any punishment you give me." The two principals looked at each other and nodded at the other. Celestia said "You, leave the room and wait outside, Spike, GreyBack and Urban. Stay here." GreyBack and Jungle complied and left the room, waiting outside as requested Then Principal Celestia however replied "Your not being punished. I spoke with Spike's friends and family and I must say. This is a really serious problem for him personally and I know. It's not my business to interfere with personal matters of students. But this has gone on long enough. I realize that me and Luna were also a bit hard on you and that we may have caused some level of grief like some of the other students and even teachers like Mr. Cranky and Harshywhinny. That's why I've brought them each here to talk to you." With that said, the 7 girls and their families had arrived inside the room. The room was filled tension as the boy and his adoptive 2nd father and brother looked at the girls and their respective family members. Celestial even left the room to give them space, taking Luna as well to avoid the conflict. (Song: Marko's remorse ftom Spider-Man 3) Everyone stared at each other, with blank expressions as to the situation as well as on how they felt deep down about the entirety of the situation. As they all looked at each other, Spike only said to break the silence. "Hi." "...Um, where's the other guy?" Rainbow Dash asked "He's outside waiting." Spike simply replied. "Look. I know that what my brother said was wrong and-" Spike said, but was cut off. "We know. You two don't need to apologize." Night Light said "We feel that we all deserve it for all the things that we did to you." Sunset said "We never wanted any of this to happen, none of us did." Pinkie said in guilt "Yeah. I mean of all the times that we hurt you. I don't even think that we have the right to be friends with you." Fluttershy said "Plus of all the times we hurt you. I never would've thought this is what it came to." Applejack said Spike only gave a look at them, while GreyBack and Urban only said nothing. "When we were young and on the first day we met, I thought of you as an friend who would help and never mind, but as we grew up, I treated you like an animal or thing that had no right to be around us. I was so caught up in myself, I didn't even bother to care. But when I realized that what i was doing was out of line of who I was, I thought that I could make it right. But I don't think I deserve a chance anymore at this rate." Fluttershy said "I thought of all the times you helped me with my homework and school, but I never even said thanks or at least show that I cared. Even when I'm with AJ I feel like that whenever we force you to come in the act that we always we get what we want but you always get hurt and none of us cared. I was supposed to be loyal to all my friends, but I guess I don't deserve that title for how I was to you my whole life." Rainbow Dash said in guilt. The next was Pinkie Pie, who still had deflated hair and said with a broken voice "I always thought that whenever I threw my parties for everyone I was friends with and made them smile like I did with me and the girls and Starlight and Sunburst. But when it came to you, I did nothing and forgot you, but I showed that I was a bad friend to you and didn't care with all those pranks and how I didn't give you an invitation. I'm sorry, but I know that me apologizing won't be enough for you." "Spike, when you helped me on Sweet Apple Acres along with Big Mac and Apple Bloom, I never gave you any credit over how much you had to work realky hard, especially when it was a night time or when you had to balance helping Twilight or anybody else. In fact, when Big Mac found out, he told me that if wasn't an Apple, he would borderline leave and say he wouldn't be related to a monster. Even Granny Smith was appalled and said if I was an Apple, why would I be here? I know this isn't enough to make up for what I did, but I really, truly and seriously am sorry, from the bottom of mah heart." "Of all the times that we hurt you Spikey-Wikey, I feel the utmost responsible for always using you whenever you try to help me and nearly end up making you work too hard even when you really loved me compared to the ruffians that flirt with me like BlueBlood. I absolutely understand if you don't wish to speak to me anymore, it's only fair that I try to make things right from what I've done." Rarity added in a guilty tone with a look of shame. Sunset was next as she slowly stepped up and said with guilt "Spike, you have every right to hate me. Especially you two, but I am really sorry that i treated you so harshly, especially when back before I was a jerk, I either almost killed you or used you all the time. I never wanted things to and up like this, I just hope that you can forgive me and the other girls for what we all did to you, even though I think we both know it's a bit late for that." "Not to mention that whenever me and Shining are always treating each other like normal siblings, we didn't even acknowledge you as a our family when we all were growing up. I feel that when we were together, we were complete strangers toward you all the time and I would treat you like a slave then a person. Spike, I'm sorry that we always used you, threatened you, forced, left and even abandoned you. If this is really what you want....then I respect your choice." Twilight apologized in remorse The boy only looked on and was about to say something, but first turned to Urban and said "Say it." Understanding what he meant, Urban first went in front and said in pity and guilt "Before he says something, I have to say something too. I'm sorry for what I said to you all, I did that because I know that you all were harsh on him and I went too far on what I said to each of you and your families, when me and him were together, we bonded and spoke of what we had gone through. When he told me about all of you, I was mad and I thought none of you deserved to be near him. I know you think I shouldn't apologize, but I think it's best if I do it since it's already bad enough this whole conflict has escalated to the point where THIS would occur, not to mention that if this keeps going, things are going to get out of control, I just hope you understand my point." Urban said in an apologetic tone. The girls were moved by the sincere and firm apology the hunter had told them and nodded with smiles, accepting his apology with dignity, even when in a way he insulted them, but knew he had a fair reason. Spike was next and slowly walked in front of Urban to face the girls and families, ready to tell them his answer. > Chapter 28: School Bash Part 3 (Moving on) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike had stepped up to the girls and looked at them with a blank expression for a few seconds. He looked on at the girls and said ".....I forgive all of you." The girls all lit up at the boy's compassion, with Pinkie's hair reinflating and making her smile again, but he then said something that made them frown "But.....I think it's best we remain acquaintances. I can forgive you for what you did to me in the past, but i can't forget on how much you caused me to go through, along with the other students you each used like Rarity did to Coco." The girls only gave looks at the boy and nodded, knowing full well he has a good reason. With their families giving them scolding glares, with Rarity having it worse when they heard what the boy said. "I guess that's fair." Rainbow Dash said "Its better to have you as an acquaintance then having you as an enemy to us at all." Twilight said The other girls nodded, knowing the valid point of the reason. After the two were done. The two principals came in and saw that than two groups were now no longer in conflict and smiled. "Well, I take it you all have righted your wrongs?" The whole group nodded while Spike said "Yeah, I forgave them, but no think it's best we remain acquaintances." Celestia nodded, knowing that from all he has gone through, he thought it would be best to take it slow. "Well, the school day is almost over, I think it's time you go." They all nodded and left the school, going their seperate ways. But not before Night and Velvet turned to the boy. "It was good to see you son." Night said "Whenever your ready, our door is open." Velvet encouraged "Thanks, but I took the other...Night and Velvet." The two looked down with looks of sadness and loss, seeing their adoptive young son only say their name then mom and dad. GreyBack only looked with remorse as they left and joined the others. As Spike looked on, GreyBack and Urban hugged him and comforted the boy from the pain he was going through. Spike, Urban and Greyback had reunited with Jungle and walked on the stress of the city. They were spending time together as family after the situatuon at school had been taken care of. As they walked, they each laughed or smiled in happiness. "So, what should we do?" Spike asked "Well-" Jungle said, but an voice cut him off. "SPIKE!" Three familiar voices said in joy They turned and saw the Dazzlings run and hug the boy, with the force knocking him down and causing his face and chest to be smothered by their racks. "We missed you!" Sonata said in delight "Air!" Spike heaved with a suffocated voice The girls saw what they were doing and quickly got off him, with the 3 warriors giving looks of amusement at him while some passing male civilians glared in envy at the teen hero. The still blushing Spike said "What are you girls doing here?" "We were going to the karaoke bar to do our jobs. When we saw you we thought you could tag along with us." Aria said The three girls then noticed the 3 human disgusted yautja with their boyfriend. "By the way, who are these guys?" Adagio asked, upon seeing the 3 yautja disguised as humans GreyBack introduced himself saying "Hello there. I am Spike's adoptive father and these are my two other sons Urban and Forest. I took him in when he was left hurt and in danger." The girls gave looks of pity and sweetness and said "Awwwww!." The blush Spike had only increased more as Adagio introduced herself "Well it's nice to meet you Mr. Drake, I'm Adagio and I am his girlfriend." "Us too!" Sonata added "Oooh! Did my son here earn your love to the point of me getting grandchildren?" GreyBack said in amusement. This made the 2 brothers laugh in amusement while the Dazzlings only giggled "DAD!" Spike said in embarrassment. "Relax my child, I'm only kidding." Spike sighed with relief, until his adoptive father whispered in his ear "But really, I want grandkids." Spike only groaned as this happened, but shrugged it off and said "Well we have nothing to do today, so why not, can we go dad?" "Of course, I would love to know more about these 3." Adagio grinned and said "Great! Follow us." The 3 were leading him and his brothers into a store and led them in. The place appeared to be a cafe of some sort, and there was a large stage in the front. On the side was a serving area of different foods like donuts, croissants or coffee. There were also different tables with plugs to charge different types of electronics. "Wow, this place is huge!" Spike complimented "Thanks, we're glad you love it." Aria said The group saw and noticed a man apoearcon the stage, with the girls noticing. "Everyone, I have some bad news, the male singer for the Dazzlings show tonight has a knee injury and will not be able to come tonight. Until then, im afraid the show is cancelled." This made the fans boo and groan in dismay at the and news. The Dazzlings were shocked at the news "What?! Feather Bangs can't come?!" Sonata said "Oh no! What do we do?! We need a make vocal for the song tonight." Adagio said Spike saw the distress his lovers were in and gave a look of pity. Without a single thought, he then blurted out. "I'll do it." The Dazzlings were surprised and said "Really?!" "Yeah, it's better to do something then nothing." The girls were reluctant, but knew it was better then nothing and nodded, but Aria said "But wait, what about the song? He doesn't know the lyrics." "Which song is it?" Spike asked. "Tell me that you love me." Spike nodded and activated something on his watch, the device beeped and showed the lyrics and he said "Let's do it." The 3 came on the stage and Sonata said "Hello everyone! Are you ready to have fun!?" The crowd slightly cheered a bit as they continued "Today we have a new guest for our song today. Please give a welcome to Spike Drake!" The boy, although reluctant, gulped and regained his courage and put on his head mic and was ready, with some of the customers recognizing him. The music started and the girls swayed their hips as Spike was ready for his first part of lyrics. As the song played, the girls moved around the place, flirting or making moves at some customers. Spike was ok with it as he knew it was just part of their job and made a few dance moves like a Moonwalk or Shane Mcmahon dance. The crowd was getting into the song and bobbed their heads onto the music, even the hunters were in the song and enjoyed the melody. As soon as the song finished, the whole crowd applauded at the performance and whistled in cheer. The girls and Spike all bowed and left the stage. As they did, they went outside and cheered "That was awesome!" Sonata cheerfully stated "And we managed to save the show tonight." Aria said "And it's all thanks to Spike." Adagio said to the boy, slowly approaching him. "Aw shucks, it was nothing." Spike said blushing "You did great with the vocals." Aria complimented "Plus the dancing you did was cool," Sonata also complimented The boy blushed as Adagio approached, and held the boys shoulders. "And I think it's time you got a little present." With that said, she kissed him on the lips, leaving him surprised at the lip lock. As they kissed, the other two glared and this further intensified when Adagio secretly placed his hand on her left breast and squeezed his hand, thus squeezing her boob too. After a few minutes, she pulled away and Spike gave a look of shock. "Save some for me Adagio!" Aria complained The pigtailed girl pushed her aside and kissed him dead on. This time as she kissed him, he felt her moving his band to her well toned and tight jean rear. He blushed at the bold move and felt her squeeze his hand, which in turn squeezed her butt. The boy blushed as this happened, until they finally stopped. "My turn!" Sonata said She quickly kissed Spike and held his hands around her waist as they made out. As they did, he felt her rack press onto his chest a bit as she pressed onto him. After a few more minutes, she let go and before either could react, she shoved his face into her cleavage, much to the dismay of her sisters. "Enjoying yourself?" Sonata asked in lust "Mmm!" The boy muffled in her boobs as she smothered him, much to her amusement. As soon as he tried to escape, her sisters pulled her off with looks of fury and dismay. "Don't hog him!" Aria angrily said to Sonata They soon noticed it was getting late and Spike said "Looks like it's getting late, I'll see you girls around." "Bye Spike!" Adagio waved to him They each went to their own destinations, Spike to his adoptive family and the girls to their home. (Unknown Location) In a lab, there were tubes of different types of creatures and even human's. There was a desk in the front of the room and a woman hidden in the shadows spoke with a scientist "Director, we have managed to revive some of the subjects that we retrieved from the different areas you sent the team's at. So far most of them are resting in stasis to regain some of their memory or consciousness." "And the report of the murderers?" The unknown woman asked "There is not much to say, but we found a strange green glowing substance around the site and we have done tests. The results conclude not only are they not from this place, but are blood from an unknown organism. In fact the blood is not even from this planet." The woman was silent for a bit and then said "Find out more of the blood you found. I'm going to check the subject known as C-8." "Yes Director. But i must warm you, the surgery and blood transfusion we did might show signs of mental trauma and possible severe aggression due to the blood. " "Thank you doctor, you are to go back to work." The woman replied. The scientist left and the unknown woman walked to one of the tubes. The tube revealed an all too familiar figure. Chrysalis. Only this time, her body looked the same and her head was on her. The tube liquids were rejuvenating her as she slept like a baby and had a peaceful slumber. "Next time I find those fuckers that are screwing with me. You will help me give them a night to remember Chrysalis." She only looked on and laughed as the eyes of the villain slowly began to open. > Chapter 29: Criminals And Crime Pay The Time Part 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike was waking up on his bed In the ship. He saw it was now morning when he looked at his watch that said it was 9 AM. He slowly got up and changed his clothes. He got up and saw GreyBack, Jungle and Urban speaking to each other. Curious as to what they were talking about, he went over and asked "What's going on guys?" Spike asked "Son, we have found an major problem with a gang on this planet.' GreyBack said "What do you mean by gang?" Spike asked "The Dark Blade Clan's best hunters have been captured by ooman men in dark skull masks. They captured Scarface and Reaver and stole their weapons." Jungle said in fear "They also captured the Solaris ooman and another one we learned is called Nightmare Moon." "Wait...the Blood Skull gang took them!?!" Spike said in shock. "Blood Skull gang?" "They're the most powerful criminal gang in Maretropolis, the leader is known as Blood Skull as he wears a mask with a skull that has blood. His real name is Gladmane. He owns a lot of nightclubs known as the Bloody Mary." "Well, in that case, we have something to show for your hunt." Spike was led to the main room as GreyBack played the screen. It showed the Maretropolis warehouse that was previously destroyed now repaired and filled with armed gang members in white or black masks on them. They were all around the place and surrounded the perimeter. GreyBack presses another button, and it showed the inside of the warehouse, where the guards were guarding two tubes with two yautja inside, and two familiar people. The first was a male and showed normal traits, but his face had a scar on the right of his eye. He was wearing a brown loincloth and silver armor with spikey shoulder pads, with a skull on one of them. The second was a female judging from her top and bottom cloths and had an C-cup and well endowed hips. Her armor was more bronze colored while her skin appeared bright red and dark green. The third was revealed to be Solaris, tied up and gagged in a chair, where she glared at the smirking guards. The ropes tightened around her body and made her breasts pop out more and her rear tight at the back in her superhero outfit. She was in another room with another woman. The fourth was revealed to be NightMare Moon, she was a middle aged woman with blue skin and dark blue hair and was wearing a black tight suit with a moon logo on the middle of her chest and I-cup breasts and had a black mask with a gap on the mouth but not her head and hair. Her eyes were shown to be dragon like with her mask on. She was tied up on the ground and was with Solaris. The 2 were being watched over by a room of soldiers and their fear was on a table being examined by a few of the gangsters. "This was captured from where Tracker used his self-destruct device to destroy the entire vicinity. Your mission is to free the two and destroy the shipment and make whoever captured them your prey." "Ok, let's do it." Spike said The boy put on his gear and weapons and left the ship, ready for the hunt, until GreyBack said "Wait son, I shall join you." "Really?" Spike said in surprise "Yes, the place is fortified and we have to be able to deal with them carefully, I think I have a plan." He whispered in Spike's ear, while he listened. (Maretropolis Warehouse) The place was crawling with numerous gang members and cars with mounted guns and weapons. As the criminals around the area were guarding the place, a black van suddenly pulled in the entrance and stopped. The guards noticed and saw the van door slowly open. One guard said confused "What the fuck? Did we get news we would have visitors?" The guard next to him said "Wait, those look like..." As the guards gathered around the van, they saw the car door open. His answer was a black boot hitting the ground and out the vehicle came an beautiful and middle aged woman that appeared to be in her mid-20's or 30's was walking to the leader. She had a well endowed grayish pink colored skin and figure and rear with dark magenta hair and her bust looked to be a J-cup. Her eyes had a strong opal color and had purple eyeshadow. She was wearing an blue shirt and red pants and approached the leader with a large group of woman coming out the van with weapons and suggestive clothing of school uniforms of police officers following her, specifically the lieutenant. "Um...Can we help you?" The leader asked, trying to not check her out. "Well, straight to business? Ok then, is this warehouse a turf of the Blood Skulls?" "Yeah? Who's askin?" The leader replied "The Worker Gals gang." The woman responded. The leader glared a few seconds before saying "Oh! Um we've been expecting you Mrs. Rich, follow me." The lieutenant led Rich to the warehouse. But they were both unaware that Hunter and GreyBack have been watching him the whole time in cloak mode on the roof of the warehouse. "This is it, are you ready my child?" GreyBack asked "Yes father, but are you sure this is a good plan?, I don't want to hurt you." Spike said in slight worry The boy's adoptive father put a hand on his shoulder and said "I understand my son, but I will be ok, I promise." Spike, although reluctant, nodded and said "Let's do it." The two split and went in separate directions. Shadow Hunter was secretly walking until he saw a gang member with a sniper rifle scoping the area. He quietly approached the guard and in one swift motion snapped his neck. Hunter quickly dragged the dead guard and hid in an unguarded alleyway of the area and quickly stripped his body of his clothes, mask and belongings. He removed his gear and put it in his bag, putting on the guards clothing and mask and taking his things, he then his the dead body in the dumpster and came out of the alleyway. With his new clothes and disguise, while hiding his gear in his bag, he set off to find the hostages. > Chapter 30: Criminals And Crime Pay The Time Part 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The now disguised Spike was infiltrating the area armed with a sniper rifle and made sure to not raise any suspicion to himself. As he walked around the area, some of the guards were with a member of the Worker Gals gang and were either flirting with them (Much to their annoyance) or guarding the perimeter. With the Worker Gals, they were each guarding the area with the Blood Skulls. Some were either doing the job, having fun with some of the Blood Skull gang members or spoke with each other. Near the supply crates was a roofed patio where 2 Worker Gals were sitting with each other with their guns next to their chairs . The first appeared to be a woman with a light peach skin color and light brown hair with light blue eyes. She wore an apron that cover her H-cup bust under her pink shirt and her bare legs that had black panties that hugged her rear. The second appeared to be a woman with green eyes, scarlet hair and orange skin. She wore an suggestive superhero suit under her blue buttoned shirt and skirt and was speaking to her friend. "You really think that this is a good idea for us to be helping the Blood Skulls?" The brown haired woman asked. "To be honest, I don't know Cream Heart, I mean on one hand it gives good pay, but the other? We have to help Spoiled Rich." The scarlet haired woman replied in dismay. Cream Heart replied " Yeah and plus we gave to dress up as if we're trying to pleasure a bunch of perverts. I'm doing this because I'm losing money ever since my husband divorced me and left me and Button all alone. Thanks again for helping me Stellar." "Same here. My husband divorced me and left ever since me and Sunburst had moved here since I wasn't "satisfying" enough for him Not only that but Sunburst has been acting out of it ever since. It's been months and he's not getting any better ever since Sunburst had an accident. " "Accident? What do you mean?" Cream Heart asked "After he left, we both went to get a few new jobs to help ourselves, I got to work in the development committee while he worked as a substitute at Crystal Prep and earned a lot thanks to his studies. But during a class he was teaching, he got an leg injury from an working related accident and had to be hospitalized when he broke his kneecap." The two continued to converse, until they noticed a young, green haired, Blood Skull gang member walking around looking around as if he was lost, armed with a sniper rifle. "Hello who's the new guy?" Cream Heart asked "He looks a bit young to be with the Blood Skulls" Stellar noticed "Wait, does he have green spikey hair?" Cream Heart noticed Stellar got be good look and said in her thoughts Spike? Is that you?" She followed the boy as Cream Heart noticed and gave a look of confusion "Stellar, what are you doing?" Stellar didn't answer and went over to him, secretly pulling off her blue coat and skirt. As Spike continued to search, a Worker Gals gang member with an SMG went up to him. She had green eyes, scarlet colored hair and orange skin, an L-cup rack which bounced when she walked, her hips and rear jiggling as she moved and was wearing a suggestive costume of a superhero, specifically Solaris and had props of her gear, but her cleavage popped out more as the suit was smaller and her large backside was with a crevice of blue star panties. Spike turned to her and saw her approach. (Just imagine the description up the image) "Hey there big stuff." The gang member said Spike turned to her and saw her and blushed at her figure. "Oh, um hello there." Spike said in between mutters. "You look a little lonely sweetie, need some company?" She said, holding his arm in her breasts and winked her eyes at him. "Yeah, but I was wondering. Do you know where the prisoners are?" Spike asked, not wanting to be rude. The woman was confused and asked "You don't know about the ransom? All the crew heard about it." Spike sweated under his mask and tried to come up with an excuse for her question. After a few seconds, he said "Um no because when I was with the boss doing a shift, I was texted to come to the docks to cover for someone, I said I had work but he said it was urgent and here I am. Why?" The woman gave a look of interest at the boy, but then said "Who are you covering for?" This made the boy sweat more, but he remembered he still had the ID of the guard he killed and said "Biff Foster." The female gangster only looked at him a few seconds, but said "Oh right, Withers said he had some problem with an broken femur bone. The prisoners are being held in one of the warehouses near the weapons cache producing some special toys Blood Skull found. I can take you there for some of your time~" "Thank you um..?" "My name's Stellar. Stellar Flare." She replied "Ok, but how much do I need to owe you?" Spike said, hiding a surprised face from her name making him recognize her "Oh. Don't worry about money darling, I have something else for you to pay~." She walked to the destination as as Spike secretly messaged his adoptive father about the possible danger of a trap on his wrist gauntlet and sent it. As they walked to the area, he received a reply Don't worry my son, I will keep watch as you find the hostages and be careful, they are using plasma weapons based off ours, just as a reminder, find the weapons shipment and production and destroy it. Be careful to not draw attention and do whatever you must to get the shipment. Spike nodded and continued to follow Stellar to the warehouse. After a few minutes of passing guards of the two gangs, they reached the warehouse and Stellar said to the door. "Open wide." The door opened revealing the room GreyBack showed to Spike, who gave a look of horror at the trapped heroines and yautja under his skull mask. The whole place was full of weapons and there were at most 6 guards, 3 Blood Skulls and 3 Worker Gals, As he looked around, she said to him in concern. "You ok?" Spike snapped out of it and said "Yeah, I'm good." She entered and he was about to enter with her, but the two guards stopped him. "Hey hey, where do you think your going?" The first guard asked "This is a private area, you don't have clearance here." Spike was about to protest, but Stellar stepped in "He's with me you two, he didn't get a reminder of the ransom tonight thanks to a shift he had. He's covering for Biff. " "Oh Biff, yeah we heard. Ok you can go in." The second guard apologized and moved. Spike nodded and followed Stellar. The moment they reached the inside, she said "Well, that's the tour, you ok now sweetie?" "Yeah, thanks again Ms. Flare." Stellar giggled and said "Just call me Stellar hun." Spike then replied while walking out "I should probably head out to my post. Thanks again for the tour." "Where are you going?" Stellar asked with a scowl. "Well you showed me the mission, so I should get back to my post." Spike said, until he felt a tug on his wrist. "But how about the promise you said, don't you remember?" Stellar notified him Spike, knowing he promised a return in exchange for the tour, sighed and said "Lead the way." She led him to a door which was guarded by another Worker Gals member, she whispered in her ear and the guarded nodded and took her leave. Stellar opened the door and led Spike in. The room had a couch, mini fridge, some snacks and cabinets. Spike gave an impressed look and said "Cozy." Stellar however, pushed him on the couch, where he sat down. He faced up and saw Stellar slowly approach him, swaying her hips. Spike tried to find a way out of it, but he didn't see any signs of distraction, aside from the fact he hid his gear in his bag. As she approached, she suddenly sat herself down on his groin, rubbing herself on him slowly. "Wha....What are you-?" Spike said, but she placed a finger on his masked lips. "Sssssh." Stellar said as she placed his hands on her large hips and presses herself on him further (with her breasts squishing on his chest), moving her hands to his mask and pulling it off. Stellar gave a look of surprise at her confimed suspicion. Spike was the gang member she lured. "Spike?" Stellar Flare asked "Um...hi Mrs. Flare." He said sheepishly "What are you doing with the Blood Skulls? More importantly, why are you here?" Spike tried to think of an explanation, he couldn't expose his adopted race, he couldn't. He stuttered out an answer as she asked "Well?" "You won't believe me if I told you." "Try me." Spike groaned as there was no way out if this one, with a slow sigh, he told her everything. The hunters, the hunts, the honor code, his adoption, Everything for a half hour. Stellar was outright shocked and surprised as the story sounded like one for the century. She thought aliens aren't real, but with the two captured yautja in the warehouse, She was wrong. "So, can you promise not to tell anyone?" She was silent at how the truth was, but she saw the boys pleading look and said "Ok. I promise but I really need the money." "Why? You told me your husband was helping with the bills like you were." Stellar, knowing she was cornered too and said in a sad tone the truth of her husband's divorce too him as well as the accident with Sunburst, leaving him shocked. As she finished her tirade, she said with tears "And that's when I went to work with the Worker Gals. I need the money to help live with my son and pay for the medical bills. And now that I have to act like this, I'll never be able to save him or myself." The mother then started to cry, with Spike giving a look of pity and sadness at her depression. He darted his eyes a bit, but then gave a hard look and pressed something on his wrist-gauntlet. "I'll help you." Stellar turned her head up a husband said in a choked voice "You would help me?" "Of course, Sunburst was a good person I know that helped me and Starlight. Thanks to him, me and Starlight became friends with him and showed him the true meaning of friendship. Plus he had really lucky to have you look out for him even when you pressure his life a bit. It shows you really care about him deep down." Stellar gave a happy smile and her tears fell but with joy. "Thank you Spike, my son is lucky to have met you and your friends." Spike gave a slight frown at the mention of the girls, but cast it aside and said "So, will you help me save the hostages?" Stellar nodded and smiled, but asked "But how do we get to free them is the problem, this area is under strict security." Spike said with a devious smile " You leave that part to me, I think I have an idea for you." He motioned for her to come to him. He whispered in her ear something's of the plan to free the heroines and yautja. > Chapter 31: Criminals And Crime Pay The Time Part 3 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The guards were patrolling the area with the Worker Gals. As they did, an alarm suddenly went off. "Shit! Somebody's here!" An Worker Gal alerted the other guards. The lieutenant noticed and said in dismay "Dammit! It must be those Power Pony bitches! Ok, everyone spread out and search the area! Those under orders for the ransom follow me and take those two as well, leave the other two, we need to guard the tubes!" The gang members obeyed and spread out while a few others carried the two bound heroines up the top floor while spreading out in large numbers. The guards spread out one by one and as they did, one Blood Skulls gangster shot his gun at the roof saying "There! I see something!" The other guards opened fire, but were sliced in pieces by a flying projectile from an unseen attacker. The bloody gore even splashed on one Blood Skull soldier, who was horrified and frightened. "SHIT!" He shouted as he began to panic, only to be blasted in the head, leaving a bloody hole in his forehead. The entire crew was panicked, at the same time, a cloaked GreyBack and Spike were heading to the warehouse while Stellar continued to distract the now paranoid soldiers. "Just relax and enjoy." Stellar said as he aimed her gun at the guards from a nearby roof and killed them each swiftly one by one. After dispatching the guards, she turned her attention to the ship, she got off the vantage point and ran to the freighter. GreyBack and Spike continued to the hostages with GreyBack asking "Boy, are you sure you can trust her?" Spike nodded saying "Yes father, she needs to save her only child and this isn't the way for her to suffer for it when her lover left her. I'm going to free her. And then I'm going to help her son." GreyBack said with acknowledgement "Very well my child, for now let's focus on the mission." The two managed to work their way into the area and reach the warehouse. GreyBack said "Save Scarface and Reaver and retrieve their weapons. I'll save the other 2 hostages." Spike nodded and they continued to the warehouse. They reached the entrance and activated their cloaks and Spike used his Vocal Mimicry and said in Stellar's voice "Open Wide." The door opened and the guards were confused as the first said "What the crap? What's going on?" Both him and the other guards were then taken down by the two warriors, spraying their dead bodies on the floor. They turned and saw the 2 captured yautja in the water filled tubes. Spike then proceeded to the console and pressed a few buttons. After he finished, the tubes slowly opened and the two yautja were freed from captivity. Scarface was the first to get up, while Reaver slowly regained her composure and said to the boy "Who are you?" "I'm the one saving you and your friend, hurry! We have to get your gear back!" "I know where it is, it's upstairs in room with the door saying Workshop." Spike nodded and followed them as they ran to their weapons. (With GreyBack) GreyBack was slaughtering the soldiers as he ran to save the 2 heroines. As he did, he saw in his mask's visit two heat signatures in a nearby room. As he broke the door with a quick kick, he saw the bound heroines and activated his wrist-blade. He saw the heroines struggling to escape as he cut their bonds and freed them of their captivity. As they got up, Solaris said as shebang Nightmare retrieved their weapons "Thanks for the help stranger." Nightmare said "But we gotta deal with the other guards." GreyBack however led them to the window of the room and they saw to their horror, a number of flayed corpses tied near the area. "Oh my God!" The two said together at the bloody sight "Whoever did this could be a mix of psycho or sadism." Nightmare said in shock An explosion was heard and GreyBack said "Follow..me...we...escape...!" The two nodded and followed the predator to the exit. (With Spike) Spike followed Scarface and Reaver to the room and saw their weapons on the tables through his bio-mask. As they were about to enter, the door wouldn't open. "Hold on. There's a number pad here." Spike said, noticing the number lock. The young hunter used his mask to scan the numbers and if there were any fingerprints on the keys. After he chose an vision where everything was blue and red, he saw the fingerprints on the 1 2,3 and 4 numbers. "Let's see, judging from the way these fingerprints look..." Spike said. He first pressed 4, then 3,2 and finally one. The keypad glowed green saying ACCESS GRANTED. The door opened and the three rushed in to retrieve the yautja's weapons. Scarface and Reaver both put on their bio-masks and gear, ready to begin the hunt once more. "Come on! Let's go! Follow me!" Spike said The two yautja nodded and followed him out of the building. The three reached outside and managed to escape. They saw GreyBack with Nightmare and Solaris and joined them. GreyBack noticed them and said "Well done son, now only one objective remains." Spike nodded and saw the ship explode, engulfed in flames and split in two. This sight left the yautja, Solaris and Nightmare surprised BOOOOOOOOOM!!! "Amazing, how did you do it In such short time?" GreyBack asked "I had some help, speaking of which, where is she?" Spike looked and saw Stellar running with Cream Heart from a big group of Blood Skulls "KILL THEM, THEY DESTROYED THE SHIPMENT!!" One gang member said Spike saw the 2 mothers in danger and cloaked himself. He jumped and landed on the ground as they shot their guns and fired his plasma pistol at them repeatedly, blinding them temporarily and allowing him to grab the two and jump to the roof for safety. "Dammit! Somebody kill those two bitches!" A Worker Gals gangster said as more soldiers came in Just as she was about to yell again, Scarface joined and fired his plasma castor at a Blood Skull gangster. And the blast made him agonizingly scream in pain and terror...because the blast had just blew his arm off as he held two SMGS. The guards severed arm surprisingly kept firing the gun as the finger kept pressing the trigger, which hit and killed the Worker Gal from a heart shot, causing her to reflexively fire her gun and start a chain reaction of the gangsters getting massacred by friendly fire from their own hand. (Ps, just imagine Dillon's Death from Predator for the first part.) Scarface rejoined the boy and his allies as they turn to cover to avoid the carnage. After a few seconds, the shooting stopped. The humans and and yautja looked at the bloody sight as Solaris said to Scarface in annoyance. "Was that REALLY necessary?" Scarface nodded as Hunter said "Well at least everyone is safe, let's get outta here before more arrive." "Agreed." Reaver said Just as the 4 were about to leave, Solaris grabbed GreyBack's wrist. "Wait!" The 4 turned confused, Scarface said "Yes?" "We wish to join in your hunt." Nightmare asked "What?" Hunter asked "You heard right, you helped us with the monster at the concert, we feel we should return the favor." Solaris said "We are going to actually stop Blood Skull and remove his influence and then continue defending the city. That way nobody will have to suffer." Nightmare promised in a firm tone. The 4 hunters huddled together and whispered. They turned and GreyBack said "Very well, you may join. But on one condition. " "You can't stop us when we decide to kill the person if necessary or possible. Is that ok?" Hunter asked "Very Well." Solaris agreed "Agreed, we may question your methods, but we can't stop you." Nightmare Moon added Hunter then turned to the two mothers and said "Follow me, I'll take you back to your home's." Stellar however said "But how, now that they know we're traitors, they're gonna target our families!" "Trust me, I managed to make them safe. " The two were reluctant but agreed, knowing they had no choice. The boy then turned to his father and said "Father, I shall take them to their homes. Can you manage?" "Yes my son, now you may go. I must speak with the two oomans. " Spike nodded and grabbed Stellar bridal style while Cream Heart was on his back and he lunged away from the area. > Chapter 32: Criminals And Crime Pay The Time Part 4 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gladmane was in his office and walking around with a scowl on his face. He wore a purple and white suit and had white pants. He had purple skin and white colored hair and he was on the phone with an angry look. "YOU LOST IT!?!" Gladmane shouted with an infuriated look "Sir, I-" the caller said, but was cut off "IT'S BAD ENOUGH THAT YOU LOST THE HOSTAGES, BUT THAT SHIPMENT HAD ALL THE THINGS I NEEDED FOR BOTH ME AND MY CUSTOMERS!!! AND I HAVE A TON OF CUSTOMERS ON CALL DEMANDING SUPPLIES ALL OVER THE WORLD!!!" Gladmane slowly breathed in and out to calm his nerves. He was infuriated by the loss of his illegal smuggling operation and thus said "Salvage whatever you can find and send it to the depot! Maybe I can make use of something from this shitshow." With a huff, he hung up and said "WHOEVER thinks they can cross me is going to have their HEAD in a box!" He then walked out his office with an look of disdain. The Power Ponies HQ, the home of the 6 famous heroes of the city of Maretropolis. They each were currently sitting around doing their own things as there was no crime as of late thanks to the Predators. Inside the training room, Twilight was simply reading a book, Rainbow Dash was training with Applejack on combat, Rarity was combing her hair, Fluttershy was taking care of Angel, who was with her and eating a carrot and Pinkie was eating a few sweets she brought. As they all were together, none of them said a word and continued, until Rainbow Dash, who was sitting on the floor said "So is there anything else?" This caught the girls attention as Rarity asked "Of what darling?" "The city's been awfully neutral ever since the whole fiasco with the large monster Queen thing and how there's more cops around the area in the city. Ever since that, I feel like those 4 armored guys we met that helped us are not only aliens, but look like that alien that blew himself to bits." Rainbow Dash asked "What are you saying Dashie?" Pinkie asked "I mean, first we get an alien human thing guy or girl with us getting kidnapped by a few of them, THEN we get aliens with acid blood and don't even get me started on the whole skinned or headless bodies fiasco that's been happening recently and we have a lead but it goes nowhere." Rarity nodded and said "Normally I would disagree but you may have a point Dash, ever since the whole situation, these killers are super skilled and may not only have good powers or gear but treat us and the other people as if they are on a hunt or game." Twilight heard the last part and said to the fashionista "Wait Rarity!, say that last part again." Rarity, with a confused look repeated "On a hunt or game?" Twilight began to slowly pick the pieces in her mind and said "The Modus operandi of this killer of ours may be a hunter of some kind. Like the ones that hunt wild animals for game or sport." "What do ya mean Twi?" Applejack asked "Think. During the attack on Mane-iac, she looked like she was in a fight and her head was taken while her bodyguards were flayed, Nighthawk was killed the same way as she never backs out a fight but her guards would and she lost her head and spinal cord while her guards were flayed. Then this happened to a bunch of other villains and not other innocents or heroes." Twilight explained "So basically your saying this person may be a hunter or vigilante?" Rainbow Dash asked "That and for the fact he targets the most worthy game he or she can find and takes the head as a trophy while the unworthy are flayed and used as a call sign when hung." "Ok, but what about the symbols on Nighthawk's and our base? What does that have to do with it?" Twilight tapped her chin and said "That I'm not quite sure but it can belong to a sort of gang or group." The girl's only looked in surprise at this new found Intel and were left wondering as to how this could affect the city, until Fluttershy asked in fear "But wait, does this mean we could be the next targets?!" The girl shivered in fear at the thought of such a gruesome fate, until Rainbow Dash put a hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry Flutters, we'll make sure when we find this creep, he's gonna get a well deserved was kicking!" RD reassured her friend This slightly relieved the shy girl, with Angel even comforting her by patting her shoulder and nuzzling her cheek. "Thanks Rainbow and you too Angel." Fluttershy hugged the two while the girls looked in amusement, unaware an unknown figure was observing them. His vision of them was thermal sights, seeing them each with bright color and vision on his mask The figure only looked on at the girls as they stood together and made a click noise before jumping rooftop to rooftop, leaving the scene... Spike was meanwhile escorting Stellar Flare back to her home (still in yautja gear), Jungle decided he would take Cream Heart back to her home where her son was waiting for her while Spike did with Stellar, as Jungle returned to the ship. As Stellar Flare entered her home, she said to the boy. "Spike, thanks again for helping me and Cream Heart. I don't know how I can repay you but-" Spike put a finger on her lips and said "I told you Mrs. Flare, it's ok, you don't have to owe me anything." "Spike, I told you to call me Stellar." She said with an amused smile Spike received a message on his gauntlet from his adoptive father saying Spike, when you have time, reach this location on your map, I've sent the coordinates now, call me when you reach the area. "Look I gotta head out, somethings come up." "Um Spike wait!" Stellar Flare said She grabbed his wrist and he turned his head with a confused look. "Can you...stay..a little bit here for me?" "Stellar are you sure? This might be a bit important and I-" "Pweeeeeeaase?" Stellar said, doing the puppy dog eyes. Spike gave a look of pity and tried his hardest to resist, but it got harder as she gave a little whimper from her black lipstick covered mouth. With a sigh of defeat, the green haired teen said "Alright Stellar, just for you." She smiled and said "Thank you! Follow me." He followed her into her home, unaware as she walked, she swayed her hips as they entered. When he closed the door, she giggled and smiled to herself and said in her thoughts. "Looks like me and the girls are going to give our hero here a special treat for stopping those monsters, I just hope Spike will be ready to know ." > Chapter 33: Criminals And Crime Pay The Time Part 5 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- As Spike was inside, he looked around and saw the house was perfectly decorated. The house was dark orange and yellow and looked as if he was facing the sun. As he was inside, Stellar Flare said "Make yourself at home, I'm gonna go change from this costume." Spike simply sat on the couch while she left. He first removed his gear and put it back in his bag. He sat down and turned the TV on. He switched to the channel and saw the news. The Newswoman said "And in light of the activities the previous week. A special newsflash everyone, you may want to brace yourselves at this news as it could be disturbing." Spike only gave a look as he knew that she was referring to the infestation last week at the concert from the Xenomorphs. "At the live concert with Countess Coloratura, Songbird Were made and Sapphire Shores, the lovely night was interrupted when unknown creatures of a sort started to rampage and slaughter all the civilians and destroyed everything in their path. Until the Power Ponies cane in and saved the day with help from 4 mystery heroes in armor and masks. This is the mugshot we have of these 4." The mugshot showed Shadow Hunter and the brothers fighting the Queen with the Power Ponies. "Witnesses say these 4 are not only new heroes but from another place but are yet to reveal themselves. Here are some statements." "Those 4 look super cool with that armor! I wish i could be like them!" A little boy said happily "I heard they saved the Power Ponies and destroyed to building to kill those faceless animals! But then again I'm grateful to them, especially the one with the lined mask. He saved me from one of those things." An girl with a light green skin, light green mint hair, golden eyes said with a flirty tone. "These 4 are super awesome! They look really cool with those masks! My favorite is the big strong one!" A girl with blond hair said. The interviews finished and the Newswoman said "And we even have a special report from the 3 themselves! Countess Coloratura, SongBird Serenade amd Sapphire Shores!" First was Sapphire Shores, who said with a smile "Those 4 not only saved me from those things, but that one with the tattoo and the one with the laser gun saved me along with the Power Ponies, if your hearing this, thank you very much!" Next was Songbird Seranade, who said "I'll admit that even though I was safe and not captured, these 4 masked crusaders must be applauded despite the destruction they caused, even though the building blew up, it saved us all. The one with the Laser Blaster saved me from danger, for that, he has my thanks along with his allies and the Power Ponies for their heroism. Finally, it was Countess Coloratura, who only said in honesty "I'll admit that even though their destruction was...questionable, they are truly good and have shown that when the attack occured. The Power Ponies and the muscular one in the breathing mask saved me from a few of those creatures and helped me and the other civilians. For that, they have my thanks. The screen shifted to the news reporter once more "Whoever these 4 mystery heroes are, thank you for helping save the day from an threat we are yet to discover. That's all for now Ladies and Gentleman." With the news report done, it switched to an ad, with Spike saying while putting therefore on the table. "Great, looks like the press got us some fans." "Is that so?" A voice behind Spike said Spike turned around and what never next made his eyes bulge. There stood the mother of his friend Sunburst, in a blue buttoned blouse and skirt. She walked her way to him, swaying her hips and sat next to him, grabbing the remote "What do you wanna watch?" Stellar asked "You can pick." Spike said "Are you sure?" "Yeah, it's your house and i gotta respect that." Spike replied, making Stellar giggle "Ok then." She grabbed the remote and scrolled on the movie list and played a movie, which began to load. She turned to Spike "I'm going to make us some tea, wait here." "Ok." Spike said Stellar got up and went to the kitchen and began to boil the pot on the stove. As she finished putting in the ingredients, she poured the tea in two cups, her's in a green cup and Spike's in purple, she then placed a sugar like ingredient in the purple cup and then went to the living room with Spike, giving her purple tea filled cup to the boy. "Thanks Stellar." "No problem Spike." As they drank their tea, they looked at the television and watched the movie, which showed a man fighting against am group of criminals to save his love. As they watched, Stellar slowly and gently grabbed the boy's hand and held it, slowly putting her head on his shoulder as he watched. After the movie ended, Spike began to feel drowsy and fall asleep, with Stellar looking with a smile. Spike began to slowly wake up and open his drowsy eyes. He was confused and thought he was in the living room, but instead found himself in a bedroom of some sort, there was a desk with a computer, drawers and a closet with an door at the side leading to the staircase to the living room. He looked around and realized he was on a bed and saw his bag with his gear was next to him on top of a small table with a drawer. His hands were tied on the top of the bed handles of the mattress with some rope. He looked around and said "What the?" As he looked, the door at the side opened and Spike saw to his surprise, Stellar Flare. She was only walking slowly to him, swaying her hips as she approached. "Hey Spike." "Stellar? What's going on?" She didn't answer and simply began to close the binds of the window and slowly strip herself of her clothes as she walked closer. She revealed herself to be in black colored lingerie as she crawled on the bed and looked at Spike. She leaned in and slowly approached his young, marked face and kissed him on the lips. Spike's eyes widened as she locked lips with him. As they kissed, she rubbed his manhood and slowly pressed herself on him more. Spike, with a bit of his strength, pulled away. Stellar, with a scowl said "Spike, What's the matter?" "Stellar, I can't do this." Spike said in guilt. "What?" "Look, your really beautiful and pretty and I'm pretty sure any guy would be lucky to have you as a wife. But the truth is...I'm-" "Already dating 3 girls?" Stellar guessed with a smirk. "Already dating Wait What?!" Spike said in surprise. Stellar explained "I found out you were dating the Dazzlings because I saw the performance at the cafe. It was really nice of you to do that. Plus i found the song a bit touching for how you love them." Spike said "Thanks." "Plus...I have another surprise for you." Stellar said with a sly grin. She said to the door "Ok Adagio, you can come in." Adagio herself came in the room with a touched smile. "Hello Spike." "Adagio? Your part of this?" "Yes Spike, I must say, your dedication and maturity is really impressive. I thought that you would cheat on me and my sister's with her. But from what I heard, you really are truly a heroic boy. Both for saving the world and for love." "So. You mean this was a test?" "In a way yes, I met Stellar after the song me and you did and she told me about you. I was a bit angry that she might be tried to take you away from us, but then I realized she was only in sorrow and grief. I decided she could join me and my sister's in dating you." Adagio explained The room was silent, until Spike asked "So....your saying your ok with this?, I don't want to hurt you Adagio." "Yes Spike, I'm saying you can have a harem with us and her. And maybe anybody else as long as you tell us first. But the question is are YOU ok with this?" Spike was left baffled at this and saw the looks in their eyes and grew to realize he did genuinely love them. From what they all have gone through, he felt it was at least the one thing he could do. With a quick nod, he said. "Yeah, it's just I don't wanna hurt anybody by cheating on you. I don't play that way." Spike consented with a smile. Stellar and Adagio smiled and as Adagio said "Then get ready big boy~." Stellar then said in lust "Because tonight, we're gonna rock this night hard~." Adagio then stripped her clothes off and revealed herself to be in a orange and yellow lingerie. Stellar meanwhile sat atop of him and kissed him again, with Spike returning it this time. Adagio slowly removed Spike's dark purple pants and saw his rock hard member, while Stellar removed his green and purple shirt. "Oooh, it's so big, it looks like I have to tend to Jr." Adagio said with sly love and lust. She then began to suck on the head of his member as he slightly bucked it forward, as she sucked, she moved up and down slowly. As Adagio blew him, Stellar broke the kiss and said to him "Can you handle this big boy~?" Stellar sat up a bit and turned around, pushing her large rear on on the boy's head, burying his face under her colossal derriere. She bounced and grinded on his face as he licked her underwear covered pussy, making her moan. The two began to speed up their act as Adagio bobbed her head a bit faster while holding his legs down. Stellar even continued to bounce on his head more harder, to the point where she put her legs behind his head and headscissored him into her butt further. "Oh yes~ show me your a better lover big boy~!" Stellar moaned out as she was are out by the boy. Her and Adagio increased their speed as Adagio moved her head faster and sucked on his rod more quickly while Stellar kept bouncing on him. As they increased the pace, Stellar yelled "I'M GONNA CUM!" As they each continued, Spike increased his speed and pumped faster in Adagio's mouth. He then released his seed in Adagio's throat, some of it got on her face. Stellar even wet her panties as Spike felt it drop on his nose. As Adagio swallowed, she looked on and said to Stellar "Wanna do him together?" Stellar, with a smirk replied "I thought you'd never ask." They got up and stripped of their lingerie slowly. Adagio then pulled off her panties, revealing her E-cups while Stellar revealed her I-cup rack that bounced when she pulled off her underwear. As they finished stripping. They turned to the boy and saw his flaccid member. The two then placed their breasts together, circling his rod in between their racks. they moved up and down in a slow motion, with Spike groaning in pleasure as they continued. They slowly began to increase the pace with their racks as they moved up and down more faster. Spike was moaning in pleasure as they rubbed their breasts on his rod. "Come on big boy! Give your best shot~!" Adagio taunted with lust As they rubbed faster, Spike have a final moan before he released, with the love juice splashing on both their breasts. Spike was tired, but saw his rod was still hard, leaving him surprised as Stellar said "Well, looks like we have another round to fulfill for our boy toy~." Spike only grinned nervously as Adagio said "And that means we can move into the main event~." They both climbed on top of him as Adagio entered his rod in her pussy, saying "I get him first." Stellar only sat on Spike again as Adagio slowly bounced on his rod, with Stellar playing with her boobs and then sucking her nipples from left to right. As they touched each other, Spike's restraints were slowly breaking due to the amounts of pleasure he was getting, as well as the strength of the fragment in him increasing his endurance. As he increased his pace, Spike pounded into Adagio as she moaned louder and with a final growl, he released his seed into her. Adagio slowly pulled out, with some of the seed splashing on Spike's crotch. She then layed on the bed and passed out from exhaustion, falling on the leftvside next to Spike on the bed. Stellar then came on the boy's still cum covered crotch and lowered herself saying "My turn~" She then proceeded to bounce on top of the boy. Moaning in pleasure as she went up and down. Spike was moaning in pleasure as she said "Yes, more! Faster!" The boy increases his speed and began to rapidly pound into her as she moaned with love and acceptance. "Spike I'm GONNA-" With both of them screaming in pleasure, they both came and climaxed into each other, mixing both of their hot juices. Stellar screamed in pleasure as she came, passing out on the right next to the boy. Spike only looked at the two girls and saw they were asleep in peace.he gave a smile and saw his binds were surprisingly broken. He gave a look of surprise and said "Wow, I guess I must have used more of my strength then I thought." The boy grabbed his arms and massaged them a bit as he slowly yawned and slept with his two lovers. > Chapter 34: Criminals And Crime Pay The Time Part 6 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike slowly awoke and began to see what was going on as he slowly saw he was in the bedroom that Adagio and Stellar took him in. "Man, what a night." Spike said He slowly began to get up and noticed the two were gone. "Looks like they got up early." Spike thought He made his way to the bathroom and noticed Stellar was washing her hands. She noticed him and said "Good morning Spike." "Morning Stellar, where did Adagio go?" Spike questioned "Oh she left to go back home a few hours ago." The two then looked on as Spike asked "Is it ok if I use the bathroom to shower? I smell like a hot mess." "Sure thing. By the way, I'm making breakfast, do you want anything?" "Just French Toast and some milk." Stellar nodded and finished using the bathroom, allowing Spike in to shower. (A few minutes later) The two were in the living room eating their breakfast and drinking their beverages. As they did, Spike asked "Um Stellar, I need to ask something." "What is it?" Stellar replied "What are we gonna tell Sunburst?" Stellar was surprised at such a question, she stopped eating for a few seconds and slowly regained her composure "Oh, um well why ask this now?" Stellar said "Because he's gonna find out sooner or later Stellar, plus I don't want to lie to him, he's my friend." Stellar only looked down, knowing he has a point. She would never lie to her son, not even if it was for a plan like he did to help him succeed. With a sigh, she gave a look of loss and said "Well, I don't know, if I tell him, he might overreact or think a bit too much about it, plus I already hurt him enough with all the plans I make for him to succeed. If I tell him this, he might think I'm a bad person." Spike only gave a look of sorrow at the hurt mother, he knew she truly wanted what was best for her son, just like his adoptive father, brothers and race did when he met them. Without hesitating, he said "No, he doesn't." Stellar looked up at the boy saying "What?" "Sunburst may find you overbearing and a bit...much, but that doesn't change the fact that he really does love you deep down. Sure some parents can be a bit....expecting but that's only because they care. Just liked how you care for Sunburst, because no matter what, he lives you as his mother to help him through tough times. In fact, when me and him were with each other in junior high, he said even though you can be a tad bit overwhelming, it doesn't change that he still loves you." Stellar's eyes were bright with tears, she looked at the boy and showed her crying face. But one distinct feature showed she was not in fact sad or depressed, no. She had a touched smile on her face from the words of the boy, who only gave a comforting smile as she then hugged him. "Thank you Spike, your the bestest friend my son could ask for." Stellar said with happy tears. Spike returned through by stroking her hair and patting her back as she held him saying "Its ok, just doing the right thing." "Now I'm happy that me and you are dating." Stellar said with an amused smile. "No problem, listen I got to go somewhere, will you be ok?" Spike said as the broke the hug. "I will, thank you again." Stellar said "Ok, I'll see you soon." Spike said, getting up from the couch. As he was about to leave, Stellar grabbed his arm, with Spike turning his head with a confused expression. "Huh?" Spike muttered He was kissed on the lips by Stellar. His eyes widened from surprised her tongue entered his mouth, he then returned it and engaged in a lip lock battle with her. As they kissed, Stellar moved her arms to Spike's hands and guided to her body. His hands went from her cheeks and hips, to her butt. As the two made out, Spike rubbed her rear gently as she moaned in her mouth. The two then broke the kiss after a few minutes as she looked at him with a grin "Be careful." Stellar said "Thanks, I will." Spike acknowledged. He then left to head to the hideout. With Stellar watching him leaving as she smiled. Spike was heading to the location his adoptive father had showed him a day ago and activated his wrist gauntlet to show the location. He followed the directions to his waypoint and jumped from rooftop to rooftop to the new hideout. As he jumpes on a rooftop, he stopped and looked at the map, he saw the location was a nearby mansion or house. "THIS is the location?" Spike thought He typed in his wrist gauntlet "Father, I've reached the waypoint, where is the location?" and sent it to GreyBack. A few seconds later, a response came and said "The location is an large house that is called a mansion, the right door has a sun symbol, the left has a moon." Spike looked at the mansion below and saw the doors with the same symbols. He then jumped down and grabbed a large pole and swung his way down the ground. Landing near the an alley, he removed his gear and put it back in his bag. He then left and ran to the entrance. Spike slowly approached the doors and made his way up the stairs. He pushed the doorbell. The door slowly opened and revealed GreyBack, in his human form "Boy, you've made it. Come." GreyBack opened the door and allowed Spike inside. The sight of the mansion was huge as there was artifacts everywhere and looked as if It was a castle of the medieval times. "Whoa, this looks like a castle." Spike commented "Indeed, It looks as if it is part of royal lineage" GreyBack commented The two began to walk through the hall, looking around at the walls with interest. "So, are Jungle and City here too?" Spike asked his adoptive father. "Yes, along with Scar, Celtic and Chopper." GreyBack responded "Really? Why did they want to come?" "They felt that with how you sacrificed yourself to kill the Queen, they would join the hunt as well." Spike nodded and felt it was fair for how they helped him and the other civilians from the incident, he continued until they went then nearby door. GreyBack opened it and the door revealed a surprising revelation. The room appeared to be a Throne room of a sort. There was a large red carpet leading to a large chair that looked to be for a ruling monarch. Whoa, this place is huge." Spike said in astonishment "Thank you young one." A familiar regal voice said Spike turned and saw Solaris and Nightmare approaching the two. She was still in her superhero outfit, exposing some off her curves. As she approached, she said "I see you've brought your son here GreyBack, I must say, even though Spike looks older, he looks pretty young." Nightmare said "Thank you Solar-...hey wait, how do you know my name?" Solaris smiled and said "Oh, I believe we have known each other Spike." "What?" Spike asked in confusion. Solaris and Nightmare hands began to glow in bright lights and reveal themselves. The boy was shocked at what stood before him. There in front of him, was his two principals. Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna. "Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna?!" The two smiled at the surprised boy, who only said "You two are Solaris and Nightmare Moon?" The two nodded as Luna said "That's right Spike, we have been ever since the Power Ponies defended the city of Maretropolis." "But wait, why do you guys want to know of me and my father?" "That is what will be explained now, follow us." Celestia said. The two followed the heroines as they walked, trying to ignore their jiggling rears. After a few moments of walking, they reached the room, which appeared to be a strategy roomntonplan how to attack anybody they encounter. The 4 sat down in some chairs and awaited the news. Celestia saud "We wish to ask you a few questions." "Only if we get to ask one. You first then me." GreyBack replied Celestia nodded and then started "When we saw the incidents in the murders of the villains you each have been killing, we realized that we not only have to deal with the crime rate, but the fact that there are more threats out there like the Xenomorphs." "You know about them?" Spike asked "Yes, at the time i could not help for some infested across the city and I had to deal with them. That is why my sister here aided you in the dealing with them and their mother." Luna added The two were left surprised as GreyBack asked "But what is it you want from us?" Celestia said "What I wish to know is that why are you each here? And plus with them on our planet?" Luna then asked "Plus, why must you kill them, like you did to the criminals here?" "We are here because this planet has been made the target of a clan of bad hunters like us. We don't kill for fun, we do it as we hunt for the greatest and worthiest prey to show strength and honor. As for the second reason, we must stop these hunters for they show no honor. I believe it is my turn to ask you something." GreyBack replied The two were left surprised at the words of the Elder Predator. He told them who they were and why they were on Earth. Noticing he had a question, Celestia let him talk "How did you even know that we did those things, you weren't there." GreyBack asked Luna replied "When we encountered Spike, we saw he had a few skulls on his belt. Another reason is earlier, we saw an video tape of Wind Rider killed the same way by an unseen assassin. We haven't found out who it is since the buidling was demolished. All we found were flayed." GreyBack gave an blank look and said "Your turn." "But what about the Xenomorphs?" Why did they Attack the planet?" Celestia asked GreyBack only said "From my guess, either one must have showed on our ship or an egg must have been found by somebody. That's the only way a nest could have been made." The two were shocked at his words. GreyBack then said "Why were you captured by those mobsters at the dock?" Luna replied "We found out they were smuggling illegal part to make weapons or warriors to sell on the black market until you came and destroyed it." Luna then asked "Ok, last question for now, why did you take the heads off or flay the criminals you killed?" GreyBack responded "We take the head to show skill and strength of our prey and show how good they are at hunting, they are killed this way to show them honor and strength of their worthiness. As for the second part, we flay the prey that is unworthy or cowardly or does not show any way of challenge to us." The sister's were shocked and said "Ok, we will continue this next time. For now we shall show you your guest rooms." The two followed the sisters to the rooms, as they did, Spike got a message on his phone. "Hmm?" Spike muttered He pulled his phone out and saw it was a new message, he decided he would see it after he sees the room. Celestia and Luna led them down the corridor with three rooms with a sub and moon. "These are the rooms you each will stay in for now." The two nodded until Spike whispered "Dad, what about the ship?" GreyBack said "Don't worry son, I used my controller to send it back to our planet so it won't be found." Spike nodded and went in the room with GreyBack and the sisters looked at the room, it had a game system and Tv, a mini fridge, some books and three beds, with the other room having the same. After the introductions, father and son went into the first room. GreyBack said to Spike "I'll be with the two sister's to speak with them. Will you be ok?" Spike nodded and as soon as GreyBack left, he put the bag with his gear down near one of the beds opened his phone to see the message. The sender was from Stellar Flare, with the subject saying "Dance Trance.". He clicked it and he saw Stellar Flare in a pair of blue panties and bikini looking at him swaying her hips. She slowly began to hypnotize the boy with her moves. She then turned around and twerked her rump in the air to the beat. As she did, Spike's pants pitched a tent as she twerked for ten minutes. After she stopped she then moved the screen to the crack of her large cleavage, and shaked it around. Spike's tent grew larger as this happened, for the video's finish, she pulled outvthe camera and kissed the screen, leaving a black kiss mark and waving her fingers flirtingly at the boy as she blew an kiss at the camera. With the video ending. Spike laid himself on one of the beds and said on his thoughts "Man, she is one wild MILF, not that it's bad." His tent slowly went down as he closed his phone, waiting to hit the hay. As soon as GreyBack came in, he said "Son, we should get some rest." "Ok, I'm getting kinda tired. Thanks again dad." Spike said "No problem son." GreyBack replied with a smile The two then went to sleep in the beds, waiting for a new day. > Chapter 35: Beach Bash Part 1 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The two then began to wake up, as Spike slowly got up and went to the bathroom, as he did, he brushed his teeth and took a shower. After he finished, he went out with a towel on his chest and changes into some purple pants and green shirt. As he changed, he saw his father getting up. Greyback was still in human form. He wore a grey shirt and black pants that hid his muscles "Good Morning son." GreyBack greeted "Hi dad, what are you doing?" Spike said "Just getting up. I'll go wake up City and Jungle." Spike nodded and said "Ok, I'll go wake up Scar, Celtic and Chopper." "Oh, they already woke up, they're outside waiting for us with the Solaris and Nightmare." The door in their room knocked and Spike went to open it and saw the two heroines. "Good Morning boys, are you enjoying your stay?" Celestia said "Yes, is there something going on?" GreyBack asked "Breakfast is ready, you may follow us to the dining room." Luna replied The two nodded and followed them. In the dining room, the heroines and the Predators were eating breakfast each. Celestia ate an egg sandwich, Luna some coffee and waffles, the Predators only ate pancakes and waffles each and scuffed it down like it was the best meal ever, with the heroines and Spike watching amused at the alien hunters love for the food. "So, what's going on right now?" Spike asked This question got the attention of the heroes as they looked at the boy with confusion "What do you mean Spike?" Celestia asked "With the Blood Skulls, there been no sight of them anywhere. And that means things are low right?" Spike clarified This fact made them slowly think of his words, he had a point as most of that gang had been neutral after the whole event with the docks and the flayed guards. Not only that, but the crime rate had significantly dimmed down ever since the boy and the yautja killed moat of the notorious villains in the city. He and his brethren were declared heroes by half the people while others thought he was a murderer. To him it didn't matter, the hunt did. "You have a point, but that doesn't mean that they aren't backing down." Celestia replied "Yes, even though they hide in shadows, we must always be ready." Jungle said Scar then said "Plus with the other Bad-Bloods in hiding, who knows when they'll show." Everybody nodded as they finished their breakfast. As they got up, Spike then asked "So does anybody want to do anything today?" The heroes shrugged on what to do, right now crime was light and they were free for now to have time together. "How about we go to the beach?" Celestia suggested. They all looked at Celestia. Jungle said in confusion "The beach?" "Yes, it's a bright day and it is summer vacation. Plus it would be a good time to unwind and enjoy the sunlight and time with friends." The hunters looked at each other and shrugged, as they felt as they trust them, it wouldn't hurt. Spike even said to his father while bulging his big green eyes. "Dad, can we go, please?" GreyBack saw the begging look in his eyes and said "Very Well, but we don't know what to do with this beach you call." "Oh leave that to us." Luna said "Plus you'll need to come with us for some things before you go." The hunters looked a but uneasy as she said this, but reluctantly complied, Spike however suddenly said. "Wait,is it alright if I bring some friends over?" "Your inviting the girls?" Luna asked "No, I mean a few others i met." Spike said "How many?" Celestia asked "4, I promise they'll be ok and behave." Spike promised Celestia and Luna thought about it and relented as Luna said "Very Well." Spike squeed and said "I'll get my beach clothes, let me know when to go." They nodded as he went to his and GreyBack's room, with Spike pulling out his phone and calling his 4 lovers. The Beach, the place where people spend time in the sandy and hot environment and ran their skin in the sun and were in swimming suits or underwear. The girls were seen hanging around in their own personal beach house and were doing things of their own. "Man, this is the life huh?" Rainbow Dash said with relaxation "Yeah, at least we can take a break from all the villains attacking." Pinkie said "Plus we don't know who to thank for that. Yet there hasn't been activity ever since the last few days." Twilight said "And maybe while out here, we can finally get a break." Rarity said "Hold on Rares, just cause we're relaxin don't mean we can't be alert about any activity." Applejack said "Dont worry AJ, we brought our things in case things go down, chill for a bit." Rainbow Dash assured The cowgirl only gave a reluctant look and continued to lay down on her bed as she stared at the roof. Outside the driveway, the 6 hunters and the sisters were driving in a large four door SUV to the parking lot of the area. They parked around and stopped the car. They each got out and revealed themselves. Celestia was in a golden bikini that held her large rack, with the bra having suns in the front and panties that held her large rear that juggled when she walked. Luna had worn a dark blue bikini that tightened on her I-cup cleavage. The bikini also had crescent moons on the front and she wore blue panties around her well rounded rear. Spike was wearing an green psirvofbswim shirts that showed his bright skin and purple sandals and was leaving the SUV The hunters were also in human disguise and wore different swimwear. Jungle wore forest camo swim shorts and shoes and had no shirt, Urban had a more urban camo colored swim shorts and sandals, Scar was wearing dark grey shorts and grey tank top and sandals, Chopper had an a lined black pair of shorts and sandals on and bandolier like belts forming an X on his chest and Celtic had a black tank top and grey shorts and sandals on and who's muscles had slowly showed under the fabric and GreyBack was wearing a pair of black and grey sandals and shorts and had a green forest camo tank top on. They pulled out their things and closed the car doors, with Celestia locking the doors and turning it off with her car keys. "Alright, is everyone ready?" Celestia asked "Yeah!" They all shouted and headed to their beach house that the sisters arranged them. Unbeknownst to them, an cloaked figure was watching them and said while holding a flyer saying "Karaoke night on Maretropolis beach!" "Let's see how they're when the boys performance is a good one.." He pressed a button on his gauntlet and shifted into Spike, with only one difference being his eyes were more dark green. The figure then left and slowly pursued the boy and his friends > Chapter 36: Beach Bash Part 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The hunters were inside the beach house the sisters had bought and were doing things of their own. Spike was receiving texts from his 4 girlfriends anf learned they were coming in a few minutes. The predators were doing their own things in the meantime. Jungle was cleaning his mask with a rag. He felt that off would be better to prepare for the worst then to not be prepared at all. As he cleaned, he slowly began to feel uneasy. City was meanwhile simply playing around with a phone he stole from a criminal. He played around with it and gave an enjoyed look as he played a game called PUBG and was surprisingly shown to be experienced with the game in spite of being new to the human planet's customs. The 3 brothers were outside with GreyBack, Celestia and Luna. They felt that as a way to unwind, they would play volleyball (Which took time to explain to the predators it's rules and goal) and began to play with Scar, Celtic and Luna and GreyBack with Celestia with Celtic. The game turned into a bit of a conflict when Celtic boasted of his team getting a point over 1. But their team lost thanks to Celestia and GreyBack using Celtic's size to trick him. Scar however, helped his brother let it go, knowing Celtic had a temper they should watch for. Eventually, they went back into the beach house and as the 2 hunters and Spike simply sat down having their own fun. As they hung around, the door to the beach house was knocked. Celestia said confused "Who could that be?" Spike got up and said "Hold on, I got it." The teen walked up to the door and saw it was none other then the Dazzlings and Stellar Flare. "Morning Spike." Aria said "Hey girls, you came!" Spike greeted. The 4 hugged the boy, with his head buried in their racks no matter where his head turned. The hunters looked amused at the scene while the sisters and GreyBack giggled at the boys blushing face. As he was released, he saw that Adagio and Stellar wore the same underwear when they slept. Aria had a dark purple bra and panties on her and the panties seemed to sink into her crack while the bra struggled to hold her rack. Sonata had a light blue bikini and panties on that not only held her figure, but her rack bounced each time she walked. Spike looked at his girlfriend's and said "So, what do you want to do?" The girls thought about it and Aria said "Well, we thought we could go outside and relax a bit, you all wanna come?" They each nodded and Adagio said "Great! Follow us." The 4 led the 8 heroes out of the beach house and Celestia closed the door while Luna locked it with her spare key. (With the girls) The girls were outside relaxing in their own spot. They began to each have fun playing games or swimming in the water. As they did so, Fluttershy was still in their beach house as she needed more sunscreen. "Oh, where did they put the spare bottle?" She said in confusion As she continued to look around, she looked in her room, then Rarity's, Applejack's and for her third guess Rainbow Dash. She looked around and saw the bottle on the desktop and quickly grabbed it. "Finally! I better get to the girls before they get sunburn." Fluttershy said She then went to the door and saw a letter with a star on it at the door, taped onto the front. "A letter?" Fluttershy asked herself She grabbed it and opened it, pulling out another paper. She unwrapped the flyer and her eyes bulged at the contents. Upon seeing it, she rushed out of the beach house with the flyer. (With Spike and the hunters) After they reached the beach, they saw a lot of men and women around having fun or relaxing. They found an spot and set their things. Such as the umbrella, mat, chairs and some food. Spike then sat down on the mat while the others did their own thing. Spike was simply playing on his phone, until Adagio called him over "Spike? Can you come here?" The boy turned his phone off and put it in his pocket, he went towards his girlfriend and saw she was laying on her back, exposing her bright skin, making his face blush red. "Can you please rub sunscreen on my body please?" She said in a sultry tone, holding a bottle of sun lotion in her hand Spike stammered his mouth as he approached, making Adagio giggle at his state. With a quick gulp down his throat, he grabbed the bottle in his right hand and poured it in the other. He slowly rubbed them together as Adagio unclipped her bra and he gently placed his hands on her back. He rubbed his hands on her smooth skin, making her moan from his touch as he rubbed her skin with the sunscreen. "Oh~! Make sure to get to bottom and front too." Adagio said. Although he hesitated, he continued and massaged the girls plump bum. He rubbed her cheeks and avoided the panties slowly and slowly moved down her legs. "Can you massage my front side too?" Adagio asked Spike blushed and said with a stutter fest of embarrassment "A-a-are y-y-you sure? I mean-" "I insist Spike, we are dating and I'm ok with you touching me anywhere~ if that's no problem." Adagio flirted The boy shakes his head and moved his hands from her neck and shoulders to her breasts and stomach. As he finished covering her chest, he slowly rubbed and covered her breasts. Adagio moaned from how he rubbed and lightly squeezed her boobs with the sunscreen and moaned louder when she felt him tweak her nipples. He then realized what he was doing and stopped and moved back as Adagio restrapped her bra clip. "There, your body should be covered now." Spike said Adagio got up and said "Thank you Spike, I must say, your hands are truly magical at massaging." Spike said with a blush "Aw shucks, I get this from how Twilight was always stressed and needed some pain relief in her muscles." Adagio giggled at her boyfriend's awkward but cute state. As they looked at each other. A famil8ar voice said "Oooooh Spikeeeeey~" Spike turned his head and saw Aria, Donate and Steljar looking at him with smirks "Did you forget about us~?" Stellar asked Spike only looked with a face full of red from embarrassment and looked on as his lovers approached them, swaying their hips as their jiggling rears moved by the rhythm of their walking pace. > Chapter 37: Beach Bash Part 3 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The fake Spike was walking around the area and hid in a nearby car to scope out the girls, there were two other females with him, one had white hair and a brown shirt and blue jeans and black boots with an C-cup and the other was a girl with yellow spikey hair, yellow eyes, a light green tank top and dark green pants and black shoes with a E-cup. As they scoped out the area, he saw them read the flyer and give looks of surprise. "Well, looks like they bought it." Fake Spike said "Those 6 bitches won't know what's coming." The white haired girl said cracking her knuckles His phone began to ring, he pulled it out and said "Hello?" "My lovely devil, have you found them yet?" A female voice on the phone said with a lustful tone. "Yes, my best squad is going to give them a night to remember my beautiful angel." Fake Spike said The female voice then said "Gooood~" The fake Spike laughed with pleasure as the two girls looked at him "Shit, it still creeps me out how you and her are dating." The yellow spikey haired girl said "Not to mention both of you are fucking brutal then us." The white haired girl commented "Oh Lightning Dust and Gilda, if only you knew the truth." Fake Spike said, bearing an ominous grin The girls were outside on the beach relaxing in their own way, until Fluttershy came in and was trying to catch her breath, having ran a bit far to their spot. The girls noticed now noticed the tired out animal lover from the run she had to get to them. As she regained her breath, she stammered a few incomprehensible words. "Whoa Fluttershy, easy there. What's the matter?" Applejack asked her friend Fluttershy slowly got up and said in an now understandable voice "Girls I found something in our beach house you need to see." The girls were intrigued at this news and went over to her. The shy girl pulled out the flyer and showed the 5 girls, who each had mixed reactions of shock, surprise or excitement "Is that-?!" Rarity asked with bulging wide eyes of shock The other girls nodded as Rainbow said with a shocked and excited voice "The Rainbooms have been invited to perform at the Beach Fest tonight!" This made the girls surprised at the statement as Pinkie said "Really?! We get to play at the beach fest tonight?!?" The party lover began to bounce around the girls with excitement as the girls were trying to calm her down, Twilight however was suspicious and said "Um girls, I don't mean to be rude, but don't you think it's a bit strange?" The 5 looked at her confused as Rarity said "Whatever do you mean Twilight?" "Isn't it a bit weird we were invited to the Beach Fest concert to perform, without even knowing we haven't even auditioned?" Twilight asked The girls gave looks of question at an assumption and saw she had a valid point of such a thing, with Applejack pointing out while putting a finger on her chin. "Now that ya mention it, it is a bit suspicious we were invited even though we weren't even entered." Fluttershy gave a suspicious look and even further pointed out "And um....aren't we suppose to...pay for entering first as well?" Twilight nodded and was about to say something, until Rainbow said with a smirk "Whatever, we get to play at the Beach Fest LIVE!, who knows what that'll get us!" Her phone ringed and she pulled it out, seeing the text "Who is it?" Twilight asked "It's Sunset Shimmer, she texted that she was invited to perform with the Rainbooms at the Beach Fest, she even received an letter at her house. She's coming here ASAP." The girls only wondered what to do next as they looked at the flyer. Aria and Stellar were both getting up from having her back covered in sunscreen by Spike, who only blushed as she slowly clipped her bra strap on and got up "Thanks again Spikey, you really do know how to please a lady." Stellar said Spike only sheepishly chuckled saying "It's the right thing to do." Stellar and Aria both replied by grinning and turning to walk off, but not before Stellar and Aria slapped their hands on her butt, jiggling their cheeks. Much to Spike's arousal. Spike only gazed as she walked, before regaining his composure as City said "Hey Spike! Wanna play some volleyball?" "Sure thing." Spike agreed as he followed the human disguised hunter Spike was seen playing volleyball against his brothers and the two sisters while he was with GreyBack and his harem. As they played, the score was tied to both teams and both began to hit the ball back and forth. As soon as Jungle saw the ball, he headbutted it into the air, but GreyBack jumped with enough agility to reach and spike it to their area, winning the game point. "We won!" Adagio said The team cheered as Spike went over and said to his brothers and Celestia and Luna "Great game guys, it was awesome." "Yeah! This place is SO much fun, it has every single kind of activity that's fun aside from what we did back home!" City said with enthusiasm The heroes only giggled at the urban yautja's happy reaction, as he then blushed a bit when he realized what he just did. After the game finished, they headed back inside their beach house, until Celestia saw a letter on the door. "Hello what's this?" The others heard her as Spike asked "What's up Celestia?" "I found this letter, it was on the door." "What does it say?" Adagio asked Celestia opened the letter and saw the same Beach Fest flyer and said with surprise " Spike Drake, you've been invited to attend the Beach Fest at 12 PM with the Dazzlings to perform!, you may be bring anybody with you." The humans were shocked at this statement with Spike saying " The Beach Fest, but I didn't enter." "We did, but we didn't tell anybody about Spike." Aria said "Yeah, plus I thought we were told the invites were out." Sonata pointed out Adagio looked at the flyer and said "This one looks pretty real, especially the writing and color. But this still ignores the fact auditions were already finished." The heroes were surprised as Spike said "Then I think it's best I don't come." This surprised the group as Sonata asked "Why not?" "Because it could be a trap. Who knows what's gonna happen." The group realized he had a point as Luna asked "Then we may need to keep watch. We'll come to and make sure things are ok." "Us too." Stellar said, pointing to herself and the Dazzlings "No, ok, I don't mean to be rude, but you don't exactly have any defense, we can't risk your safety." Spike said GreyBack however said to the 3 girls and Stellar "Wait, I think I have something, you 4 follow me." He led the 4 into the beach house and pulled out of his bag 3 red pendants and one that looked to be a sun with an orange core and twist "These pendants allow you to unlock your inner strength and show the true demon you are. Wear them, you won't stain their power." The 4 put on their pendants, the Dazzlings with the red ones and Stellar with the sun pendant. The pendants began to glow and slowly shine as they lifted them in the air. "What's happening?!" Sonata asked After a few seconds, they stopped floating and went back on the ground, with GreyBack saying "These gems grant the wearer the power the most suits them when needed. We must hurry and help my son." They nodded and followed him and saw them outside, he went to his son and said "Spike, are you ready to go?" "Yes, but what did you give them?" Spike said, noticing the pendants. "They have protection against threats we will face, we continued time to explain, let's get ready." Spike nodded and went to the beach house, ready for the Beach Fest, with the other girls and hunters following. > Chapter 38: Beach Bash Part 4 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was the next morning and the Beach Fest was going to start soon. The hunters and the girls were getting ready to attend and perform. As they were heading to the main entrance, they saw the Rainbooms heading inside. "The Rainbooms are joining too?" Sonata said in surprise "They must have been invited to the event like us." Spike theorized They continued and made their way to the entrance, where the security guard said "Tickets?" The group pulled out their tickets they found in the letter and showed the guard, who took them and said with a nod "Enjoy the party." The hunters and girls went inside and saw the area was full of different types of seats and food stands. As they walked around, they went to the first row seats thanks to the passes they found in the letter as well. Spike, GreyBack, Celestia, Luna and Adagio sat in the front while Scar, Celtic, Chopper, Jungle, City, Sonata, Stellar and Aria were in the seats behind them. "I wonder who else is performing aside from us and the girls." Spike thought with curiosity. As the seats began to get crowded by the party goers, the lights began to turn off as they arrived and took their seats. After the final lights were off, the stage began to glue a blue light and the host then came on the stage. "HELLO EVERYBODY!!!! ARE YOU READY FOR THE BEACH FEST TONIGHT!?" The audience cheered in excitement in response. They were excited that the fest was gonna be a blast. The hunters only gave looks of surprise or excitement to blend in with the humans. The host then said " Because tonight, we have a special guest appearing on here tonight! You know her, you love her and she sang all around the world from Las Pegasus, Neonopolis and Canterlot City! She's none other then Songbird Serenade!" The whole crowd cheered at the announcement as they saw the beautiful singer slowly appear out of the backstage and be given the Microphone by the host, she then faced the crowd, as their shouts of excitement died down. "Thank you all, it is a wonderful honor to show up here at the Maretropolis Beach Bash 2020 show tonight. Before I start, I would like to give a commanding applaud to not only the 6 heroines that kept this city safe with their lives and protected this city's fair citizens, but also the 4 new armored heroes that saved me, Sapphire Shores and Countess Coloratura from an terrible fate. First the one, the only POWER PONIES!" The screen showed first the Power Ponies in battle stances posing, which made all the fans (mostly the males because of their beauty) cheer in joy at their world famous heroes that protected them from the threats of evil. The hunters took notice of the majority of males cheering and gave looks of surprise The hunters saw as Jungle said "They must be really famous for their heroism here." City added "It looks like the males here even have a majority of mating with them as well." Spike, turning to his brothers said in an humorous tone "You have no idea." Songbird then said "And let's also give a good round of applause to the 4 new heroes that helped the Power Ponies save me, Countess Coloratura and Sapphire Shores from an dangerous evil!" The next photo on the screen showed Spike as Shadow Hunter along with Scar, Celtic and Chopper protecting the humans from the xenomorphs while saving a few civilians. They were in battle stances as they either threw projectiles or fired their plasma weapons. The crowd then cheered even more loudly then before at the hunters, with most of the female fans giving looks of interest or love at them as they cheered. The hunters were left surprised at the cheering fans. The brothers were surprised the most at how they were adored by the public despite who they are. Scar said with a look of surprise "I guess they must really like us too like the Power Ponies huh?" Chopper only nodded his head saying "And I guess we have alot of fans." Celestia only added in amusement "or at least Fangirls." The brothers only blushed red as Adagio said with dismay "Well they should know one of them is taken." "And if they take him, They. Will. Pay." Aria said with a protective tone Spike blushed at how his lovers were towards him as the screen then became normal again. As the cheering died down, Songbird then said "First, we have the first contestant who will sing tonight is the one, the only COUNTESS COLORATURA!!" Songbird left the stage and went to the backstage, and the stage went dark for a few seconds, until a beautiful singer arrived with sone backup dancers when the lights came on. The crowd was cheering for the singerbas she performed and danced, the audience went wild as she sang. After the song finished, she left the stage as the crowd waited for the next contestant. Fake Spike, Gilda and Lightning were hiding behind the backstage as they were getting ready to perform tonight. "Are the photos and canisters loaded?" Fake Spike asked the two girls "Yeah, it's going to set off in a few minutes like you told us." Lightning Dust responded "Good, that way we can lure them out." Fake Spike said "What about those annoying Rainboom bitches?" Gilda asked "Leave that to me..." Fake Spike said The host was back on the stage and then said "I hope you enjoyed that performance because there's more to come!" The crowd cheered on delight at this announcement. "Our next contestant is none other then the group that travelled the world, the group that won your hearts. The one and only boy band Group 5 with their two hit singles and guest starring in their performance is the one and only mistress of pop, SAPPHIRE SHORES!!" The crowd went wild as the host headed backstage a gain as the Group 5 band attended. The group consisted of at least 7 foreign males and one caught Spikes eye. As they danced, Spike said noticing the blonde member of the group "Hey wait, isn't that Feather Bangs?" The Dazzlings only looked and gave wide eyes at the observation, recognizing the vocalist. "Yeah, he's here with Group 5, I thought he was hurt." Aria noticed "I guess he must've gotten better." Sonata said "But I thought he wasn't with a group." Adagio pointed out The heroes only watched at the performance the group did as they danced and sang with Sapphire Shores. After the performance finished with a blast of fireworks, the lights went off and after a few seconds on as band stayed while Sapphire left and continued to sing a new song. The girls were getting ready as they were going to perform soon and continued to practice or relax as they were backstage. "We're almost next for the performance girls." Twilight notified them Sunset, who was now with the girls said "We're ready Twilight, don't worry." Rainbow said "We'll show them a great time tonight! Don't worry." "But still, I feel this is a bit weird." Applejack said As the girls conversed, they didn't know what was in store for them. Fake Spike wore a hoodie hiding his real face and continued to upload the photos on his phone to the screen on the stage for their performance, ready to plan. "Let's see how they think of me when I show them the meaning of power." As he prepared for the performance, he got ready and pressed a button on his neck, making him look like Spike and he got ready. > Chapter 39: Beach Bash Part 5 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The hunters were surprised at the performance from Group 5 and only gave looks of surprise or interest at the songs good melody The host was back on the stage and said "Alright EVERYBODY! I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THAT PERFORMANCE! BECAUSE ITS NOT OVER YET!" The audience cheered as the host announced this and then shouted on the Mic "AND NOW WE HAVE THE PERFORMANCE YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR! THESE 7 ARE THE GIRLS YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR! TONIGHT, WE HAVE THE ONE AND ONLY GROUP FROM CHS. THE RAINBOOMS!" The audience let out a loud cheer as the host left and the girls, had gotten on the stage and began to sing As the audience cheered the host was backstage and said "Man those girls are awesome!" He felt an tug on his arm and he turned and saw a backstage hand who whispered in his ear "Really? But that's two performances away from this one." The host replied, The stage hand only nodded in confirmation. "Alright then." The host then left and headed to the backstage room. As the girls were performing, they were almost done the song and the crowd was cheering more then before. Even the hunters, Spike and the Dazzlings were liking their performance. "They are really good at this aren't they?" Chopper asked "You think?" Celtic remarked "Plus they won the battle of the bands in the school year. I think they would do great here too." Celestia said As soon as they were done, they each bowed at the audience, who cheered in delight at their performance. The hunters and Spike even whistled and clapped at the performance and cheered in delight. The host came back on the stage and as the Rainbooms were going back to the backstage "AND NOW HERES THE NEXT PERFORMANCE BY NONE OTHER THEN THE BEAUTIFUL DUO, POSTCRUSH!!!! AND TWO OF THE RAINBOOMS!!?" The host left as two girls came onto the stage, while backstage Sunset and Pinkie were getting ready to help in the song. They got ready as the song began to play. The whole audience bobbed their heads to the music as the two singers sung, even the hunters were enjoying it "These 2 are really good!" Jungle complimented Spike even said in response "I know, they're the best music duo in Canterlot ever!" City even commented "Plus they are so cool and beautiful!" The hunters, Stellar Flare and the Dazzlings only looked at the urban yautja, who only blushed as he said in an embarrassed tone "Did I...say that out loud?" They each nodded with amused smiles as the song was in the middle verse. Fake Spike was under the basememt of the concert building setting up canisters underneath the stage and loading them up. He then placed an bomb on one and set the timer to 4 minutes. "Time for an night to remember..." He headed back to the stage and left the basement as the timer began. The song was ending and the girls bowed at the audience, who cheered at their performance. The host then said "THAT WAS A THRILLING PERFORMANCE! BUT ARE YOU READY FOR MORE!?!??!!!" The host said on the microphone. The audience cheered in delight and agreement at his words, with host saying once more to the excited audience. "Because tonight, we have the performance by none other then the band the one. The ONLY. DAZZLINGS!!!" The crowd cheered as the 3 girls smiled and got off their seats and were heading to the stage for their performance "You'll do great girls." Spike encouraged "Show them a great night." Stellar added "Do your best, no matter what." Jungle supported The girls nodded and began to walk into the stage. With the audience cheering as the music began to play. As the girls stood on the stage, they were covered in smoke. The moment the smoke dissipated, they had different outfits. They wore different types of clothes, but with extra glimmer and lipstick. Sonata even had an extra pair of see through purple shades. The girls began to sing the first verse of their song. With the people looking on with a look of trance in their minds as they began to sing like sirens luring their victims with their heavenly voice. The hunters and Stellar only gave looks of amazement at the girls and their singing. Urban took notice of the entranced audience and said "Is it me, or are all the people asleep here?" The others took notice of the entranced audience and Spike even said "Yeah, this happens when were in CHS during the battle of the bands. They were against the Rainbooms but lost." Celestia added with agreement "Plus they became 2nd popular in the school while the Rainbooms were 1st. A lot of the students thought they were amazing." Luna pointed out in a matter of fact tone "Not to mention after the event, they became rivals and competed against each other. The hunters agreed as GreyBack commented "And it looks like that's not the only reason now." As they continued to sing, they began to sway their hips to the music, acting as if they were brainwashing the crowd to follow their every whim and command. As they sang, green mist began to appear and go into the crowded audience. The audience looked as if they were in a spell as their eyes suddenly turned to a green color. The heroes took notice and Spike said "What's going on?!" "Hurry, put on your masks and powers!" Spike and the predators activated their bio-masks and gear and breathed from the gaseous mist while Stellar, Luna and Celestia used the masks they were given earlier by GreyBack to breathe through the fumes, crouching and hiding in the crowded people. "What's happening to them!?" Scar said "Its gas! It's spreading through the area. I can't tell where it's coming from!" Jungle revealed The moment the girls finished the song, the gas suddenly dissipated and the trance consumed audiences passed out and fell to the ground, leaving them surprised at the scene. The Rainbooms were watching the whole thing from a backstage camera as Rarity said in surprise "What's happening out there?!" "And what's going on in the crowd?" An alarm went off and all the entrances were locked. "What the fuck?!" Rainbow Dash shouted in confusion Fake Spike was now outside the building, watching with a sniper rifle as he then pulled out a detonator and said with a devious smirk. "Party's over." He pushed the button and the building caught on fire, with more green mist appearing from a hole in the roof as he watched with glee. > Chapter 40: Beach Bash Part 6 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The building was now completely on fire and there was falling debris from the roof blocking the entrances. The hunters were surrounded by a towering inferno of flames and destruction. "SHIT!" Spike shouted in panic at the predicament they were in. The hunters were trying to help the other civilians, but none would awake. "FUCK! Nobody's waking up!" City said in frustration as he tried to wake a few civilians. As the hunters, Celestia, Luna and Stellar tried to awaken the audience, a loud scream of fear was heard. The heroes turned and saw the Dazzlings in danger from the falling debris. "NO!" Spike shouted as the debris fell from the building. As he struggled the get up, an large wooden pillar fell on him. He tried to lift it up and pull, but it was too heavy for him. Just as he was about to give up, Celtic managed lift it and held out his hand. "Come on!" Celtic shouted Spike saw the Dazzlings were still in danger and rushed to them. He saw they were trapped on the stage from the flaming debris and were close to being fried. Spike used his bio-mask to scan for any material to put out the fire and saw a nearby fire extinguisher. He destroyed the door and grabbed it and rushed to the girls, putting the fire out with the extinguisher. As he helped them, there were sirens heard outside as the police and fire department arrived at the scene. The hunters and the heroines were evacuating the civilians and the fire fighters helped them reach the paramedics. Greyback saw on the ceiling some sprinklers and threw his shuriken, with sliced the sprinklers lots off and allowed the water to ease down as Spike helped the girls, carrying them each on his shoulder, chest or back. The heroes managed to reach outside and saw the fire department was helping the civilians and evacuating the area. "Everyone ok?" Jungle asked The others nodded as Spike said "What the hell happened in there?" "I don't know, I didn't detect any flammable material on my scanners." Scar said "Me neither." Chopper said "Wait...where are the Rainbooms?" Spike asked They looked around and noticed they were indeed not around the people being career for by the paramedics. City then said something that sent a chill down their spines. "Guys..they're inside the building." His words made their eyes widen with shock and fear. "WHAT?!" Spike said in shock He began to run back into the building with the hunters seeing him as Stellar said "Spike, what are you doing?!" "You'll get killed in there?" Chopper said with worry Spike continued to run to the entrance and enter the building, not heeding the protests of the others. Fake Spike was watching the whole scene through his sniper rifle, he pulled out his phone and said "Alright, the baits in, send in the Cyber Soldiers." The voice on the other line of the phone said "Yes Sir!" A chopper was seen and landed on the sandy beach ground, soldiers in elite blacks ops gear arrived and went to him. One member said "Orders sir?" Fake Spike said "Send In half your group to get in and kill the target, you and the other half come with me." "Yes Sir! You heard him! Move!" The Mercenary said as the soldiers stealthily began to half to the burned building. Fake Spike then called another number on his phone and said "Yo Wind Rider, you and your friends are up, can you cut them out? Without anesthetic like a sick bowel. For the Mistress." A different male voice was heard and said with glee and pleasure "Yes, they will know what pain is when we come...." "Just remember to time it. Tomorrow...they will be cut and you will gain your pay." With that, Fake Spike hung up and left the beach. Spike was trying to find the girls, but he had to get through a number of obstacles like the blocked entrances or the large debris that was around the charred and still burning down building. As he walked, he picked up 7 heat signatures on his bio-mask and said with recognition "That must be the girls, I gotta find a way to get them out of here." As he walked, he picked up another heat signature and said in confusion "What? Who's the eighth one?" He saw an knocked out and unconscious Songbird Serenade on the floor, having passed out from the smoke. "Songbird Serenade?" Spike said woth surprise at the famous singer. He checked her pulse with his finger on her neck and bio-mask and was relieved she wasn't dead and carried her on his back, continuing his search for the girls. As he went to the destroyed stage, he went to the backstage and saw the whole area was a mess. As he explored, his bio-mask picked up a few heartbeats and off was in one of the backstage rooms that the singer's would use to relax and practice before they did their performance. He looked until he heard a loud sound from one of the doors, he rushed to it until a large ounce of debris from the ceiling blocked the entrance. "DAMMIT!" Spike shouted in annoyance He saw the door and used his vision and saw through the girls were using their powers to try and penetrate the door, and were nearly successful. He pulled out his plasma pistol and fired a charged shot at the blockade, incinerating the obstacle and giving him a chance to break the door down with a swift kick. The girls saw the door was broken down and Hunter was here. "What the hell?!" Rainbow said "Come with me if you wanna live!" Shadow Hunter said Knowing there was no other way out the building, they followed him out the room and rushed to reach the entrance. "Hurry! The buildings gonna fall!" Applejack shouted "Keep running!" Twilight said They sprinted as fast as they could to the entrance and were almost there. Just as they reached the entrance, they lunged and jumped out the exit as the building collapsed on the ground. The heroes and hunters looked wkth different reactions at the destroyed Beach Fest building as the fire department continued to try and suppress the fire. Spike meanwhile saw no time to gaze and went to the paramedics with the unconscious Songbirds and said in a deep, mechanical, distorted voice from his mask. "Hurry, she's passed put from inhaling the smoke, get her to a hospital as soon as possible." "No problem." The paramedic said as he placed a breathing mask on Songbird and placed her in the back of the ambulance. The hunters reunited from far away from the situation, cloaked themselves and returned back to their beach house. After they changed into their normal clothes Greyback said in concern "Son are you ok?" Spike nodded and said " Yeah dad, I was saving a few innocents in the fire, including the girls." The hunters nodded as Spike saw the girls being treated by the paramedics and fire fighters. The Dazzlings and Stellar were however, not so happy as they approached Spike with worried scowls. "Spike?! What were you thinking?!" Adagio said with a hint of anger and shock Spike only said "I'm sorry but the girl's were gonna get killed in there!" "But you risked your own life as well!" Aria said "Look I know! I was going to get killed in there and maybe die, but you guys were in danger too!" The girls only sighed as Sonata said "We know, it's just we don't wanna lose you while your doing your thing to protect the world." "One of the few aspects of this job, you gotta make sure everyone is safe, no matter who it is." Spike said with a slight shrug. "And with great power, comes great responsibility." Stellar said The girls nodded as they knew he had a point and hugged him, with the hunters joining as to how he risked his life to keep 8 innocents safe. After the hug was broken, Spike asked "So, what should we do now?" "I think we should get some rest. It's been a long day." Jungle said The others nodded and headed to their rooms to gain some shuteye. > Chapter 41: Beach Bash Part 7 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The hunters and heroines were sleeping in their rooms and peacefully slept in their slumber. As the daytime arrived, the alarm clock went off. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP Spike slammed his hand on the snooze button and woke up with bags under his eyes and his hair being messy. "Ugggggggh. What time is it?" Spike asked The young hunter looked and saw the clock said 8:30 in the morning and Jungle said "8 in the morning." The green haired boy was slowly getting up and went to his closet, grabbing a spare green pair of shirts and a purple shirt and went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and shower. (A few minutes later) Spike was in the living room on the couch and was currently seen resting while the others were doing their own things. As he was sleeping, he heard a voice shake him awake "Spike get up." Spike slowly awoke and saw Jungle and asked "What's the matter?" "You need to see the news." He said Spike got up and turned the tv on. He went to the news channel and saw the newswoman with s new announcement "Maretropolis News interrupts this program with some breaking news! Earlier yesterday, the Beach Fest was held for those to attend and enjoy the entertainment of Songbird Serenade, Countess Coloratura and Sapphire Shores. But during the event, an mysterious gas and dangerous fire had broken out and injured at least 50 to 20 people with second to third degree burns. During investigation by law enforcement and the fire department, an piece of tape recording from the security footage found by police shows a new piece of evidence. Here is the footage that police had recovered from the building." The recording showed Spike as Hunter saving an unconscious Songbird Serenade and freeing the girls. "It appears the new mysterious heroes that have arrived in this city have chosen to start saving both the people of the city but also heroes alike. We even have received an message from Songbird herself live to this new hero. The screen showed the famous singer in a hospital bed laying down to rest and looked at the camera with a grateful look in her eyes. "Hello everyone, I just wanna sat its a nice day and I have an special announcement. Earlier today as you all have learned, the Beach Fest was held to show the greatest groups and celebrities across the globe to show their talent. Until a raging fire had endangered the lives of both the people and us. Until we were saved by the same armored heroes that saved us from the concert before. Whoever you are. Thank you." The message cut and returned to the news woman. "Could this be a new form of competition for our beloved protectors, the Power Ponies? Stay tuned in for more." The news then went back to a TV program as Spike and Jungle only looked with shock at the news. "Oh great. This is bad." Spike said Jungle asked "What do you mean?" "I mean I wasn't supposed to be seen, but I guess I was too careless." Spike said with his head down, embarrassed at his mistake Jungle however, patted the boys back "Its ok little one, you may have exposed yourself, but not every Hunter is perfect." "Really?" Spike said with a bit of reassuring feelings "Of course, even though we train hard and follow the code as much as we can, there are times when we have to do what's wrong to do what is right. You did so to save 8 innocent girls from getting killed from an accident." Spike smiled and hugged his adoptive brother, who returned it with a smile "Thanks Jungle." "No problem. Come on, its a new day and we should do something." Jungle replied with a smile of his own. The two went outside the house and saw all the people were relaxing after the incident. As they walked, they each spoke of how the entire event speculated. Some theorizes it was from an accident or an defective instrument used in the event. As the two were walking, Spike saw his afoptive family and Adagio relaxing with her sisters and Stellar. "Hey Spike." Aria said, noticing him and Jungle "Hello son." Greyback son "Hey everyone. What's going on?" Spike asked "Nothing much. After you went to relax, the others went to relax with us so you could heal." Spike nodded and sat by his father's and Adagio. He noticed Luna and Celestia were missing and asked "By the way, what happened to Luna and Celestia?" Scar said "They said they were going to get more sunscreen and beach supplies for us." "We had to use the others for each other while you were out. But that reminds me." Sonata said as she then pulled out a sunscreen bottle with a smile "What?" Spike said confused "You didn't put some on." Stellar notified him with an mischievous grin "And you know what that means." Aria said with an devious smile "Its your turn now~" Adagio said Spike only gulped at how he was cornered by the girls and was tackled by them as they rubbed the sunscreen on him An black van was seen entering the parking lot that was near the Beach. The doors opened and a trio of 3 men and 2 women in black armored suits and helmets were coming out of the vehicle. "Are you sure this is the right place?" A male member asked "Its gotta be Timber, Pharnyx said this was it when he blew up the building and tried to tie up loose ends." A female member responded "Well whatever we do, we gotta be discreet." The 3rd male said "Alright then, get the other clothes and bags." The 2nd female said They went to the back of the car and opened the doors, pulling out bags and other equipment. Spike was on the ground in exhaustion, he had been covered in sunscreen and was tired from how long it was. He slowly got up and began to lay on the mat with the hunters as the girls were in the water spraying water at each other. "Man, this is awesome." City said with a smile "Your telling me." Chopper said "Back home, we had great places that were sunny and cold, but nothing like this." Scar said "Plus, the food here isn't as messy or mutilated." Chopper added As the hunters relaxed, the Dazzlings, Stellar, Celestia and Luna were playing in the water "Gotcha Aria!" Sonata splashed water at Aria "Oh yeah?" The pigtail haired teen said as she pushed Sonata into more water. Adagio used the chance to splash water onto her and said with boast "How's that?" She however was soaked by Celestia and then each began to try and splash one another. The water fight got a bit heated. As they each have some dirty moves, Aria pulled Sonata's bra, Adagio snapped Aria's panties, Stellar had twisted Adagio's nipples through her wet bikini and Celestia and Luna had began to pull the others pussy under each other's panties. The scene made some men look aroused and their girlfriends either glare or slap them them from looking at the scene. Until they each stopped and looked at each other and stopped trying to ruin one another's body or underwear out of exhaustion. The hunters witnessed the scene and looked either shocked or surprised at the ordeal. Until the scene had only worsened when Spike saw 7 familiar girls arrived, marching towards the Dazzlings, Stellar, Luna and Celestia with glares. "Oh no." Spike said "Well Well, look who it is!" Aria said "The Rainbooms." Adagio said in mock surprise. The Rainbooms only looked at the girls with dismay, with Spike heading to the scene to make sure they didn't kill one another. > Chapter 42: Beach Bash Part 8 (Fight part 1) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Rainbooms had came and saw their rivals, the Dazzlings. They each only glares at one another while the hunters, Celestia, Luna, Stellar and a few bystanders watched the event. "You three have a lot of nerve coming here after what you did!" Rainbow Dash accused them "Well, it's a free country!" Adagio said This only aggravated them further as Twilight said with a look of disgust "Do you even have any idea what you 3 even did?!" "What are you talking about you flat chested cum dumpster?" Aria asked with annoyance Applejack angrily stepped up and said "Don't chu 3 play all innocent, we mean that stunt you 3 did in your performance at the Fest yesterday!" The Dazzlings only looked at each other with genuine confusion as Sonata asked "Stunt?" "The green mist you three spread in the audience!" Sunset clarified with annoyance "....What??" Adagio asked with further confusion at this revelation This was getting the heroines nowhere, they looked and saw that their rivals were genuinely as confused and shocked at the news then they were. As they looked at them with surprised looks, Rarity said "Wait! You 3 mean you don't know what happened when you performed?" "No, plus even if we did, I don't think we wouldn't notice." Adagio said "Plus the police said that it was from some worn out canister the stage hands forgot to throw out." Sonata said The girls looked at her and Pinkie asked "How would you know that?" "When the fire was put out, they looked around and saw the canister was defective and worn down, they said it must've went off because of the handle being too broken." The girls only looked at each other with looks of surprise at this revelation as Adagio asked Sonata "Sonata, how did you know about that?" "Because when those armored guys from the concert saved us, they saw the canister was damaged because of a canister belonging to some group called Weyland-Yutani, judging from the logo." This statement shocked the girls as Twilight said in her thoughts "The Weyland-Yutani corporation, the biggest notorious company on the globe compared to Filthy Rich? what could they have a part of this?" As the girls had heard the revelation, they heard a familiar voice call out to them and say "What's going on here?!" The Rainbooms and Dazzlings looked and saw it was none other then Spike. Who approached with a glare as the girls looked in surprise at the young anti-hero. "Spike, what are you doing here?" Fluttershy asked "I was hanging out with my friends here until I saw you three trying to start a cat fight with each other." The girls have looks of surprise as Rainbow Dash said "Friends?" The 3 only gave devious smiles as Adagio said "Well technically, Girlfriends." She then kissed Spike on the lips, as did Aria and Sonata, with the girls jaws falling on the ground with wide eyes "HUH!?!" The 7 heroines said with surprise "You mean-?" Sunset asked "Your dating ALL 3 of them?!" Rainbow Dash asked with a jealous tone, giving an look of outrage. "How did this happen?!" Applejack asked, equally as jealous as Rainbow Dash "Why should you get to know? You didn't care before." Adagio called them out in disdain "Nobody asked you, you balloon haired cheating bimbo!" Rainbow Dash said, pointing an accusing finger at her "But it's true though!" Aria said "But I thought you 3 hated him!" Pinkie brought up "We did until we found out the truth." Sonata replied spitefully "ENOUGH!!" Spike shouted with annoyance and anger Gasps came from the girls. Some civilians only looked at the scene and looked with slight fear at what just happened. Spike had shouted at them and gave a look of disgust and annoyance and only said "NOBODY insults my friends that way and I CERTAINLY didn't come to watch you guys start another fight. You wanna hurt me, fine, but my friends is something I won't tolerate!" The 7 were backing away as Spike ranted out at them "But they released gas out of the stage yesterday!" Sunset replied "And did you even bother to even investigate or ask the police about how it happened?" Spike retorted "Of course we did. We saw the tape in the security camera." Twilight said "Yeah and I saw the full version of it, have you?." Spike responded "No, besides you don't have any proof." Rainbow Dash said Spike then pulled our his phone and said "Oh really?" He showed the tape and they saw to the stage scene from the Fest when the Dazzlings performed. He then pushed a button and it showed an cloaked figure tampering with the canisters and putting them in the bottom of the stage podium. "How did you Get this?" Rarity asked "I'd tell you, but I don't wanna spoil it for you." Spike answered The Rainbooms were left baffled at how the shots were now being called by somebody not that they fought before but from their former friend and to their rivals, they lost the one thing they had most of the time in this situation, the high ground. As Spike even said "Look, I know I forgave you for everything, but I didn't say we were friends, only acquaintances. Just try not embarrass both yourselves or us. Just try to get along with each other alright? Im not asking for me, but also for both them and you 7. You all have a long way to go to earn my trust." "Your buying this?" Twilight said Spike gave a dark look and said with a sarcastic tone "I dunno, your smart, figure it out sellout." The words he said made Twilight's eyes widen in shock and insult He turned to the Dazzlings and said "Let's get outta here." He then walked away with the Dazzlings following him as the girls looked on as they left. As they left the water however, the water began to boom "What the hell?!" Rainbow Dash said The water boomed even faster and louder and out came a large monstrous creature. The civilians screamed at the sight that had emerged out of the beach water It was a large tentacle monster that had suddenly appeared out of the water. It had a large slimy green body with large lips and 20 green tentacles. 10 was on its back, and 5 each on its arms. What was even more shocking was how the tentacles looked to be releasing out a very familiar white substance. "GO. GO. GOOO!!!" Spike said as he and the Dazzlings ran. "WHAT. IS. THAT?!" Fluttershy surprisingly shouted "It doesn't matter! RUN!" Twilight said The 7 Rainbooms ran out the water with the creature in pursuit. The hunters had seen the events and saw the boy and his lovers run out the water. "Get ready!" "Its coming!" Scar said They managed to hide at a nearby hut and became their hunter personas. With Cekestia and Luna in their hero suits and the Dazzlings and Stellar surprisingly in superhero suits as well. The Dazzlings appeared to have tight suits and wore stage like clothing and had fish like wings on their backs. Stellar had appeared as a sun like goddess figure with an Amazonian like costume Spike looked at them and blushed at how tight the suits were for them and their figures. "Whoa!" Adagio said "This is cool!" Sonata praised "Yeah. Lets kick some Ass!" Aria said, punching her fist in her palm. They went out and saw the creature fighting the Power Ponies. They cut off 2 of its tentacles, but they regenerated each time. The creature managed to nab Matterhorn and Zapp. "They're in trouble! Come on!" Spike said They ran to the creature and lunged. The girls were having trouble fighting the large monstrosity. It healed itself each time and didn't back down. The creature eventually managed to nab all 7 of the girls and eventually grabbed a few more girls and woman, giving a perverted look. The boys mother looked and said in horror "Mom!" "Button RUN!" The mother said in worry or panic He tried but the creature nabbed him too and held him near his mother while grabbing a few other girls in the process. (Ps ignore Lightning Dust in this picture.) "HEEEELP!!!" One of the civilians said The creature then moved its tentacles and began to advance on Radiance's crotch. "Hey don't go there!" Zapp protested The creature didn't listen and rubbed it and the others. "No stop!" Cream Heart said as she moaned As the creature was doing so, he suddenly was impaled in the head by an familiar figure. The figure was Scar, in his armor and used his Combi-stick to impaled the creature and slashing the tentacle that had Trixie with his glaive. He caught her bridal style and said "Are you ok?" Trixie had gave a look of surprise at her near death experience gave dreamy eyes at the Blooded hunter as she looked at his brown human like eyes through his mask and felt a warm feeling of relief and asked "I am now, thank you..?" "Scar." The creature roared as Scar roared back and charged, with Trixie saying with a droopy look "Bye Scar~" At the same time, the others managed to free and save the other civilians from the monsters clutches. Jungle with Cream Heart and Button, City with Sunset and Pinkie and Sparkler, Chopper with Lyra, Bon-Bon and Fluttershy, Celtic with Flitter, Cloudkicker, Cloudchaser and Spitfire, Spike with Applejack and Rarity and Solaris and Nightmare with Twilight, Roseluck and Rainbow Dash. The creature was enraged and roared, with Shadow Hunter/Spike saying with his vocal mimicry in an Al Pacino voice You wanna play rough?! OK!!! > Chapter 43: Beach Bash Part 9 (Fight part 2) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The hunters charged at the tentacle monster and fought from all sides while the heroines helped the injured Power Ponies and the civilians it attacked and went to take them safety. As they fought the creature, they saw its healing factor slowly negate from their attacks, most notably plasma "Guys use Plasma weapons!" Shadow Hunter said, they nodded and readied their weapons. The monster however grabbed Celtic, who threw a small jar and case in its mouth, "EAT THIS!" Celtic shouted The case broke on the creatures tongue, causing it to be lit aflame and release Celtic as the hunters fired their plasma weapons. As it trjed to swipe at them, City then said while charging his plasma castor in his vocal mimicry at the burning creature. "SMILE YOU SON OF A BITCH!!" He fired a charged blade at the monster, who melted at the attacks in burning shrapnel and sparks, breaking and causing its body and its parts to fall into the ocean. The hunters looked at the destroyed creature as City said "That thing was a robot?" "Yeah and guess who made it?" Scar said as he pointed to the logo on its exposed back, which the hunters saw "Weyland-Yutani." Shadow Hunter said upon seeing the symbol and writing "That was awesome!" A nearby voice shouted behind them. The hunters saw a bunch of the humans who hid from the chaos approach them with looks of admiration or interest at the warriors. "Aw Crap." Spike thought with a look of fear at the fans who ran over to them "Hey everybody look! Its the armored heroes from the concert last month!" "And the ones from the Beach Fest!" "You guys totally kicked that monster's butt!" "You even managed to save the Power Ponies and us from it!" The hunters were crowded at the humans who praised them. With some girls and woman looking at some of them lustfully, much to their discomfort. "You guys are so cool!" "Can I have your autograph?" "Can we take a selfie together?" "What are your names?! We gotta take this in Maretropolis magazine!" The hunters backed away slowly as news reporters and media vans came in and news teams rushed to the area. "There! Look!" A journalist said "Its the heroes from the concert!" A reporter added "We gotta get an exclusive interview!" They rushed to the scene with the fan mob crowding the anti-heroes As the mob increased, Hunter whispered to them with quick reaction "Hurry! Cloaks on!" The hunters cloaked and stealthily ran back to the beach house. The fans saw this and were confused "Huh? Where did they go?" "They just disappeared!" The hunters reached the house and laid down to rest their exhaustion from the monster attack as well as the mob of fans. "Well, I guess we got a fan base now." Chopper said "You think?" Jungle said "And I guessing from that amount of people, we have competition with the Power Ponies even when we don't want it." Scar said "Yeah, but for now let's get some rest and hope they don't find us here." GreyBack said "Hopefully, the last thing we need is them finding out what we are." City said Spike was in his room on his bed, laying down and resting his chest from the fight. As he did, his phone vibrated. He pulled it out and saw the text. It was from Adagio. The text read "Hey Spike, we managed to get the girls amd the others to safety back at their beach houses, we're coming back in a few minutes. Love Adagio ❤😘. Spike put his phone back on his dresser and laid on the bed, trying to get some rest for a bit for having to evade the fans. As he rested, he said in his thoughts "Now I know how the girls feel with the amounts of guy fans they are gaga over them." Spike began to slowly fall in slumber and drift to sleep. Ready to gain an least an fair amount of shut eye after today's events. Just as we was about to sleep, he received another text. It was from Celestia "Spike, just to let you know tomorrow is Halloween, tomorrow we're gonna throw a party, is that ok?" Spike texted back "Sure, but I'll have to tell my family if it's ok." "Ok" Spike went to the hunters and asked "Hey guys?" "Yeah?" Jungle asked "Celestia said tomorrow is Halloween and she's gonna throw a party. Wanna join?" Spike asked "What's Halloween?" Scar asked "Its a holiday where you dress up as anybody you want and go to other people's houses for candy or treats. The theme is scary or horror." The hunters thought about for a bit and after s few minutes, nodded City said "Sure, but what about the costumes? Don't we have those already?" "I'll buy some new ones with Celestia, we can't risk you guys using your gear." The hunters nodded and GreyBack said "I think it's time we get some rest everyone." The hunters and Spike each nodded and went in their rooms to gain some shut eye. The girls were in their beachhouse, they were secretly placed there to get them to safety from the event. As they groaned in pain, Twilight slowly woke up saying "What happened?" "My head feels numb." Rarity said holding her temple with her hand As the girls slowly got up, they saw they were back in their beach house. With their normal clothes on then their superhero suits. "Why are we back in our beach house?" Rainbow Dash said "And what about the monster?" Fluttershy asked "Girls! You need to come here!" Sunset shouted from one of the rooms. "Sunset?" Twilight said as she and the others went to the room Sunset's voice was heard. They saw her looking at the tv with a look of surprise. "What's the matter?" Pinkie asked "You need to see this." Sunset said as she turned on the news channel. The girls watched as the newsman said with a picture of the monster on his right "This is Maretropolis News reporting live a special announcement today. At the Maretroplis Beach, an unknown type of creature has once again attacked and endangered the lives of many civilians. The Power Ponies arrived to save day as usual, but even they had been overwhelmed by this creature. However, just as hope seemed lost for our beloved heroines, the armored heroes from the Concert incident had arrived and saved the day and the Power Ponies. Here is a scene from the exclusive footage." The scene showed Shadow Hunter and the predators fighting the monster while Celestia, Luna, Stellar and the Dazzlings were in their suits and saved the Power Ponies and a few civilians. "Sources also say that this creature was in fact a robot created by the well known Weyland-Yutani corporation, but CEO Weyland denied any involvement. Whoever these armored new heroes are, thank you." The girls were left surprised at the news, a new superhero group in town?, they never thought that they would be saved themselves. As they looked at the tv, they were left wondering who these new heroes were. "Who are these guys?" Rainbow Dash asked "I dunno, but it sounds like we got newcomers." Applejack said "Hopefully these newcomers are either friend or foe. " Rarity said "And maybe we can finally meet and talk to them. " Fluttershy said "What are you talking about Fluttershy?" Sunset asked "I mean, they saved us from the monsters at the concert and the monster, maybe they're protecting the people like we are." Fluttershy said "Maybe, but the main question is who are they aside from Armored heroes?" Twilight asked They only shrugged at the question, until Pinkie gasped and said "OhIjustrememberedthat tomorrowisHalloweenandIhavetosetupstuffseeya!" Pinkie then dashed at a fast speed somewhere out the room, leaving the girls bewildered, but they decided to not question it. After all, it was just Pinkie being Pinkie. > Chapter 44: Halloween > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- The hunters began to awaken as the sun has risen up, they had returned to the mansion of the sisters and Spike also got up and saw it was now daytime. He rises from his bed and got up, groaning as he went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and shower. As Spike got out the bathroom and into the hallway, he noticed the hallways had decorations that varied from spooky pumpkins to creep plastic ghost or leaves. He slowly walked down as he saw the dinner table had a knife and a pumpkin with a carved smile as it was lit up from the inside. "What the?" Spike said, until he felt a tap on the shoulder "BOO!" An male voice said as he lunged at Spike Spike however, punched him in the face and said upon seeing it was Urban "City? What are you doing?" The city hunter was dressed as Michael Myers and picked up his knocked off mask and said "Hello Spike, I was just gonna gonna try to scare you as part of the holiday today." "Right, where are the others?" Spike asked "They're in the car outside waiting. We were gonna get some costumes." City replied Spike nodded and got up to change and get ready. The heroes were at the costume store and had picked their own costumes. Jungle was Connor Kenway, Spike was the Dragonborn, GreyBack was the Overlord and Scar, Celtic and Chopper were Ryu Hayabusa, Ezio and Corvo Attano respectively. "This is awesome!" Chopper complimented his costume "These robes are pretty fitting my style" Scar commended "My robes feel fitting as well." Jungle also said "We hope you like them, cause we got something too." An voice said from the female changing room. They turned and saw Celestia and Luna coming out in skimpy outfits. Principal Celestia was an succubus with a black dress that higher her figure while Vice Principal Luna was an vampire and had a red dress and fake fangs on and wore q dark blue corset that clung to her cleavage and rear. "Nice costumes!" Spike complimented "Thanks, we picked em out ourselves." Luna said Spike's phone suddenly vibrated, he pulled it out and saw it was from Stellar "Hey Spike, we've just wanted to let you know that the party is almost ready and the girls are here today too. Come by as soon as you can." "What is it?" Jungle asked seeing Spike look at his phone. "Stellar said that the party is gonna start soon." "Alright let's get going." The group was at the party and met the Dazzling and Stellar. The Dazzlings were in Siren-like uniforms with fin like wings while Stellar was dressed like in a warrior princess like costume in homage to Wonder Woman, they could not believe what they saw when they entered. The place had a lot of people hanging around doing a lot of things such as eating candy, dancing or drinking. They were all in costume and were dressed to be scary, seductive or even both. The ceiling had a disco ball with pulsing lights that glowed red, blue, green or yellow as the DJ was playing the music. The party-goers were dancing to the music and clapping their hands to the beat. The heroes were left surprised at the intensity of the party and looked on at the beat dropped by the music. "Man this is a big ass party!" Celtic said The others agreed and began to walk around the party. They began to go through numerous activities such as taking drinks, playing games, eating candy and even being flirted with by some of the party-goers. "Man this is awesome!" Spike said "Yeah I can keep this up for all night!" Urban said The heroes began to dance as the DJ, revealed to be DJ Pon-3 then shouted "ALRIGHT EVERYONE! HAVING FUN!?" The crowd cheered and encouraged the DJ to turn the music up. "THEN LETS TURN UP THE BEAT!" The crowd cheered and DJ Pon-3 turned up the beat and played another song. The song began to blast and the ravers began to dance along as the dancefloor glowed and the stream lights began to pulsate numerous colours. Dancers were having fun either drinking or dancing alone or with a friend or love interest. Spike and the other hunters continued dancing and the party goers had fun. Jungle and City took some shots of drinks, Greyback, Celestia and Luna did surprising acrobatic moves which made some male and female party goers look at both with hearts in their eyes, Scar, Celtic and Chopper were dancing on the dance floor and used their training to show surprising moves and poses as Scar even moonwalked, Chopper did a back flip and Celtic even did a dive flow and then put his hands on the floor and swung his legs and a few of the party goers cheered them on as they danced in with incredible speed and strength. Spike was not only dancing with his adoptive family, but as he did, The Dazzlings and Stellar even danced with him as Spike did some surprising dance moves while his harem did surprising moves of their own. As the party-goers had fun, an mysterious figure looked at Spike and the girls and pulled out a walkie talkie "I see him, what do I do?" The unknown figure asked "Seperate him, bring in the other Angels and make sure you don't hurt him or his friends or family" The voice on the other end replied. As they danced, an unknown female with a hoodie on slowly gave a sultry grin and grinded her bum on Spike's groin. "Hey! Stay away from our man!" Stellar angrily said to the female touching Spike "Says who hag?" The hooded teen responded haughtily "Says US." The Dazzlings said to the hooded girl. The crowd began to see the situation and the hooded figure only gave a frown as the Dazzlings and Stellar only gaver her the stink eye. The hunters saw this and were about to stop it, but Greyback stopped them. "Wait, let's go in cloak mode and see how this goes." The other hunters were reluctant, but complied and they went to the boys bathroom and turned their cloaks and left and watched the situation in case it got out of control. "Well he's too good for bimbos like you 4." The unknown female said The moment she said that, Spike's lovers angrily looked at the figure with fuming looks as the party goers said "FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!" They jumped at her, but then the unknown figure pressed a button on her watch and the light went off and she and Spike disappeared. "What the shit?!" Aria shouted "What happened to the lights?!" Stellar said Eventually the lights got back on and the heroes saw that their friend was missing "Spike?!/Son?!" The hunters and the the girls said in surprise. (Outside) "Hey! Let me go!" Spike said as he was held by the arms "Ssssh! We don't wanna hurt you!" The unknown figure said "Then why are you-OOFH!" Spike said before he was knocked out and dragged by the hooded female. > Chapter 45: Gang Wars > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike was seen in an unknown building tied to a chair, his costume stripped and him only in his pants, showing his toned chest. As he lied unconscious, a unknown voice was heard "Wake up kid." Spike began to slowly wake up and gave a perplexed look of surprise. "Wha-? What the?!" Spike said in shock Spike looked and saw that he was in some sort of building. He looked around and saw it appeared to be some sort of interrogation room due to a few tables having some tools such as pliers and gas cans. As Spike looked, he heard the male voice again "Good, your up." Spike kept looking around and said in surprise. "Who is that?! Where am I?!" "Calm down, we only wish to speak with you." Spike saw the door nearby open and a beautiful red and brown haired woman walked out, holding some of his gear, specifically his mask, shuriken, combi-stick, Plasma gun and wrist-blades all strapped on his hunting bag. "We wish to know about these weapons and your equipment." Spike only gave a look of rebellion and said in defiance "Go to hell." The red haired woman only scowled and put the mask and gear on the table. She then looked at the boy and punched him in the face. Spike only gave a look of defiance as he spat out blood. As he did, he secretly cut the ropes with a blade in his shoe. "That looked like it really hurt." The voice said "Why do you wanna know?" Spike only asked in annoyance. "We've been catching sight of these kinds of weapons across Maretropolis, Las Pegasus and Manehattan. And since you have a pair, your going to tell us how you got them." The voice on the intercom said "Over my dead body asshole." Spike said "Your funeral runt. Kill him!" The intercom shouted The moment he said that, Spike broke free and roundhouse kicked the woman to the ground and grabbed his equipment. "STOP HIM!" The voice on the intercom said Two other woman got in the room and got in fight stances. The first girl had smooth blue hair and eyes while the second had blonde hair and blue eyes like the first. The fight had begun and Spike was cornered by the 3 female attackers. But he continued to fight. The first thing the hunter did was counter the first girl's kick and pounched near the table with his weapons. The next thing he did was jump kick the second girl into the ground and throw her into the third opponent he faced that tortured him and kicked her in the head. After the 3 were knocked out, he put on his gear and made sure he had everything. He went to the door and picked the lock. He kicked the door down In the room there was alot of weapons and guns such as hatchets, pistols, knives and Assault rifles. There was a desk in the middle of the room with a phone. There standing was a man with silver colored hair, green eyes and persian blue colored skin. He has a gun in his left hand aimed at the boy and was ready in case, even readying the laser sight. "Gladmane?!" Spike said to the crime lord in shock "That's right punk, and you got alot of nerve after how you costed my shipment with the Worker Gals and their trades." Spike sweated in fear after hearing this, but his expression remained determined as he said to Gladmane "What the fuck are you talking about you silver haired STD?" "Don't play dumb with me boy! I know you were the one who blew my shipment up and screwed over some of my merchandise!" Gladmane said Spike saw his finger about to fire the gun. Quickly detecting Gladmane's finger movement, he somersaulted right and fired his speargun at Gladmane. The spear hit the barrel of the gun, causing an explosion that blew Gladmane's hand open with shrapnel. "AAAAAGGGHHH FUCK!" As he fell on the floor holding his bloody hand, Spike only looked at the crime lord and readied his glaive and wristblades, approaching him slowly. "Wait, please! I-I can get you anything you want! Money, weapons, girls, whatever you want! Just PLEASE DON'T KILL ME!" Gladmane said in fright. Spike only grabbed the man, put him on the chair, tying his arms amd legs and stripped him of his weapons. That being a switchblade and revolver. "I'm gonna ask questions, and YOU WILL ANSWER ME." Spike said, aiming his wrist-blade at Gladmane's jugular area. The crime lord nodded with fear and gave a look of fear as the young anti-hero spoke again. "How did you find me?" Gladmane replied "We used a camera at the dock and used it to track you. We also had a tracker in the panties of the girls that you took from the docks." "How do I turn them off?" Spike said "I dunno I-AAAAAAAGGGHHHHHHHH!" Gladmane said, until Spike stabbed him with his own switchblade in the knee. "HOW!?" Spike demanded "I have a fingerscanner to turn them off! Just STOP!" Gladmane begged in pain Spike looked at the beaten Gladmane and saw his eyes shedding tears of pain. Cutting the rope holding his right hand, Spike said to the gang leader. "Do it!" Gladmane pressed a button under his desk and a hand scanner showed. He pressed his palm on the scanner and an female AI voice said "TRACKERS DEACTIVATED." "There. Happy?" Gladmane said sarcastically "One more question, why are you after me and my weapons?" Spike asked "I told you already you little shit." Gladmane said in anger. Spike stabbed Gladmane in his torso and put his thumb finger in the hole with a brute amount of force. "We both know it can't just be about the hardware. WHY did you go after me?!" Spike asked "I got a call from someone, but I don't know who it was. All I know is that the voice was a female and that it was a gang that had connections with Weyland-Yutani." "Those sons of Bitches." Spike thought "Who's gang?" Spike asked "I dubno, but it could be the Worker Gals. Their hardware is based alot on their stuff. In fact, those lingeries and cosplays suits they wear are special body armors that help in tracking invisible targets." Spike only looked at the crime lord and saw his phone. He then turned to him and said while putting his wrist-blade on his throat "Call them. I know your associated with them from that deal you both had at the docks. Now call them or I GUT YOU." Gladmane complied and pressed the numbers on the nearby phone. It was on hold for a few seconds before a female voice was heard. "Who is it?" Spike elbowed Gladmane and motioned for him to answer. "Hey Lady Mistress, it's me again." "Gladmane? What do you want this time? Another girl for an good dance at The Unicorn? Because this time you better pay up!" The female voice shouted "Actually no, I got a good deal with a really rich son of a bitch that pays alot for not just hardware, but some other toys you may like, I'll put him on speaker." Gladmane said, trying to hide his pain from his interrogation. "Hello? Can you hear me?" Spike said over the phone. "Yeah cutie, You mind telling me your name?" The voice said "I will, but first thing is I got some stuff you may like." Spike responded "What kinda stuff honey?" The voice replied with interest Spike thought for a second and said "I got some special 'toys' you can use on your competition, Weyland wanted to thank you each personally for your help in our business, we also have a generous bonus from Director Weyland himself." "Ooohhh, a reward and some new toys to play with, where should we meet babe?" The voice said seductively Spike looked at Gladmane, who whispered "The club Unicorn, that's their main hangout." Spike said to the phone "Meet me in your main club The Unicorn. Tomorrow at 7 PM." "Alright cutie, maybe when you come, you'll get a 'special' reward yourself from me and the Mistress." The voice said before hanging up Spike, seeing that his answers were given, removed his thumb and readied his wrist-blade. "Hey, what are you doin?!" Gladmane said "Sealing the deal." Spike said Screams were heard as slicing and slashing was heard. After a few seconds, the scrrams stopped and a trail of blood left the bottom of the door from the floor. (2 hours later) Spike, with his Shadow Hunter armor on and left the building from the rooftop door and continued his way. The boy lunged at a nearby billboard and hung a flayed corpse of a familiar crime lord. "Now to find the others." Spike said, who jumped from building to building. > Chapter 46: Gang Wars Part 2 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spike leapt from building to building and kept trying to reach The Unicorn club. As he did, he stopped and stood on top of a stone gargoyle. His mask had received a message. He looked and saw it was from Stellar Flare and Adagio. "Spike, Are you OK?!?! SPIKE?!?!" "SPIKE?! WHERE ARE YOU?!? "Relax I'm fine! What's wrong?!?!" Spike messaged back. After a few minutes, the voice on the end spoke again and said "Oh thank goodness! Spike!? Where are you?!" Adagio said in worry Spike looked around and saw no familiar shops he was familiar with. The only thing he saw was a number of small clubs, food courts, weapon shops and some strip clubs. "I don't know honestly. I think I'm in a gang territory. I'll show you my location and let you know if something comes up." Spike pressed a button on his gauntlet and it hung up he ran to the roof and jumped from the roof to the other roofs of other shops. Spike only looked around the shops and went into cloak mode, jumping off the roof side of a small burger joint. Spike managed to land near an alleyway and slowly walked his way out. He uncloaked and continued to walk, until he heard a voice "Hey stop moving you little broad!" "Let me go!" A female voice said Spike looked and saw the voice coming from a corner. He crouched and looked and saw a masked vandal trying to undress a young pre-teen. She had a tiara on her head and pink hair with white lines and pink skin. She was under attack by a thug with a switchblade trying to rob her. "Diamond Tiara?" Spike said with surprise. As the thug was grabbing her, he slashed her cheek and arm and kicked her stomach. Spike grabbed his speargun and shot the thug, impaling him onto a wall from the chest. Spike went over to the injured pre-teen and bandaged her wounds and soon began to leave, until Diamond saw him leaving and tried to call him. "Hey! Wait!" Spike turned and saw the girl pursue him, she reached him and gave him a hug. "Thanks Shadow Hunter." Diamond said Spike only replied "Go home, it's not safe here." Diamond nodded and ran out the alley. Spike only smiled and left the alley. "Where the hell am I?" Spike thought confused as he looked around As Spike walked, he looked around and saw unfamiliar faces or shops his way. As he walked, some civilians noticed his footsteps, but payed no mind to him. As he walked, he noticed a familiar looking club The place had pink lighting and the logo said in flashing pink THE UNICORN CLUB. In the entrance was a muscular bouncer that had black pants and a dark blue shirt that said SECURITY. "Wait, that must be the club Gladmane was talking about." Spike uncloaked himself and hid at a nearby wall and looked for alternate routes to enter. He heard some voices at the parking lot and went to go look. Noticing a dumpster leading to a window at the side of the building. He climbed and slowly hid to look. There was a black van with some men in formal white suits and masks entering. The one in the middle had a black dragon like mask on his face and said "Alright boys, get the merchandise, the Mistress doesn't like waiting." Spike saw the men and saw they were grabbing bags from the van and entering the club. Spike only looked and said quietly "How do I get past these guys?" As soon as he said that, one guard said to another guard "Man I gotta take a leak!" "Fine, but your carrying the last bag." Spike waited for the guards to head in and made his way behind the guard. He grabbed him by the throat and aimed his wrist-blades at his neck, surprsing the guard. "Gun." Spike ordered The guard handed over a pistol to Spike. "Clothes and mask." Spike said again. "But-" "NOW." Spike said firmly The guard unzipped his suit, pants and removed his mask. With shaky hands, he gave them to the hunter. "Now die." Spike said, and he then slit the guards throat and closed his mouth. The guard tried to fight, but he asphysixated from the hunter's attack. Spike carefully looted the guard, finding a wallet with alot of cash and hid the body inside the dumpster and put on the suit and mask while putting his bag on. "Perfect fit." Spike said in satisfaction. Grabbing the last bag, Spike slowly unzipped and saw there were different types of guns, explosives and knives inside. He took one grenade and zipped it back up while he entered the club . As soon as he entered, Spike placed his predator gear in his backpack and hid it in his bag to avoid suspicion. As he walked, he heard loud music coming from the door and slowly opened it. The site surprised him. There were girls all over in skimpy clothes either flirting with customers and either giving them dances on the chairs or the pole stages or drink areas. At the pole stages, the girls danced for the customers and cash was put in their panties or bras as they performed. There was also a bar selling different beverages of alcohol and surprisingly soda. As Spike looked around, a voice shouted through the loud music "Hey! Kid! Get over here!" Spike looked and saw it was the other men in suits. He approached and saw them give him looks of annoyance. "We've been waiting for you boy! How long does it take your water to come out?!" "Sorry boss. Won't happen again." Spike apologized "Better not or I'm cutting out your pay and telling Weyland you screwed the merchandise! Now let's go, the Mistress is waiting for us." The leader said Spike nodded and followed them. They walked through the club and some of the girls had flirted with them, with some even promising to return shortly. One girl walked over to Spike and said "Hey there baby. You feelin lonely?" Spike gave a look at her and saw she looked familiar. He looked closer and said in his thoughts "Wait, isn't that the woman at the docks with Stellar?" Spike looked at her and confirmed it upon seeing her light brown hair and blue eyes as she wore black panties and a lacy bra that struggled to hold her cleavage. Not wanting to take advantage of her, Spike said "I'm fine, but thanks for the offer." Spike declined politely The woman gave a slightly disappointed look, until Spike pulled out 40 dollars from the stolen guard's wallet and said "But this you may need in case." He placed the cash in her breasts and Cream Heart gave a smile of happiness to him and quietly kissed his cheek and left in joy. Spike only smiled back as he followed the gang to an upstairs floor to a door saying MEMBERS ONLYand the leader handed a jewel to the female guards in the way. They nodded and opened the door allowed access. Inside the door was at least a room that had 4 private rooms and beds and soft chairs. There was a bunch of strippers armed with guns or walking around. There was also an office desk in the front and sitting there was a light pink woman with purple magenta hair and opal colored eyes, with two female guards armed with guns. She wore a small blue blouse that struggled to hold her enormous breasts along with pink jeans that hugged her hips, but her face was covered by an white face mask. She gave a look of dismay at the thugs as the leader spoke. "Sorry to keep you waiting milady." The Gals leader only gave a look of annoyance and said "I don't pay you to wait. I pay to get more deals, what do you have?" The leader snapped his fingers and his men (and Spike) opened the bags and revealed numerous guns and explosives. The female guards took some of the guns and looked them over. Spike only looked on at the deal. "Remember, be calm." As the deal took place, the Worker Gals leader noticed Spike and began to give a suspicious look. Spike noticed her and gave a blank look. With a shrug, The leader looked at the weapons and said "I have to say, these weapons may be small and little conpared to the shipment at the dock, but these weapons might actually benefit us both during our businesses and rival issues. You all may have earned yourselves an speccial reward." The leader said in satisfaction "My pleasure Lady Mistress." "Pick a girl, but I pick who I want" The leader said The gang members nodded and walked to the girls they liked to be with. Shadow Hunter/Spike turned and tried to leave, but the leader said "You! Green hair with the scars, your with me." Spike froze and looked back to see her pointing at him, with the leader looking at him asking with a raised brow "Where you going kid?" "Getting a drink for you, her and us sir." Spike replied The gang members of both crews looked at the disguised anti-hero, who only waited until they replied. "I'll send someone to get the drink, you come with me." The Worker Gals leader responded Spike noticed some of the Worker Gals loaded their weapons. With no other choice, he complied and said "Lead the way Lady Mistress." The leader only smiled ominously and led Spike to one of the rooms. As he followed, he looked and resisted having a hard on from her jiggling rump in a blue thong, which rode her buttcheeks tightly. As soon as she closed the door, she pushed the hunter on a chair and said to him "You having a fun time boy?" "Yes Mistress." Spike replied Spike didn't respond as she slowly removed her mask and blouse and her breasts jiggled as she pulled the top off. He only gave a shocked look upon seeing her face "Mrs. Rich?!" Spike thought in surprise "It's been awhile since I had a young choice." Spoiled said "I'm flattered you think that milady." Spike responded "You can just call me Spoiled...and don't pretend you don't know me...Hunter."
