Hitch: STOP!
Cockatrice (in native Cockatrice language): Wait! You can talk to me?
Hitch: Um, yes?
Cockatrice: Well then, you and the pony with you is lucky.
Hitch: We are?
Cockatrice: Our ancestors came across a Pegasus with an animal speaking talent. Before she died of old age, we came to an accord: the Pax Cockatricea.
Hitch: Interesting.
Cockatrice: We were a menace at the time, going into pony settlements to feast. So, in exchange for continued existence, we would stay away from pony settlements and any pony who was with an animal speaking talent pony are off limits. By the way: I recommend that any pony that comes into our territory wears your cutie mark as a badge to mark them as “with you”, as a security measure.
Hitch: Okay, thanks for the advice. By the way, who was the Pegasus that you established the accord with?
Cockatrice: She was yellow with a pink mane and tail and had 3 butterflies as her mark. I believe she was called Fluttershy.
Hitch: Thanks again for the warning.
Cockatrice turns and heads off

I mean, you can still talk to it, right Hitch?

Good thing all these creatures are extinct

Plot twist, it was Kenneth in disguise.

It’s A Cockatraice! RUN!
