Dead Rising: Buck the Rules

by IrishTrickster
Trapped in a mall overrun with zombies with a sister who needs Zombrex is not how Applejack wanted to spend the day.

We all do crazy things to protect the ones we love. For Applejack, that means doing whatever it takes to get enough bits to pay for enough Zombrex to insure that her younger sister, Applebloom never turns into a zombie. Corrupted with guilt over something that happened in her past, she takes part in illegal zombie-killing games to earn the cash to protect her sister.

But when an event happening in the basement of a mall goes wrong, Applejack finds herself having to hide in a shelter from those things and needs to plan her escape instead of recklessly getting her sister killed. But Applebloom needs a dose of Zombrex once every 24 hours and the only way to find it, is to go into the building which has been overrun with zombies.

Even if it means risking her life and fighting her way through those things, Applejack is ready to take the chance to keep her sister normal. And who knows, there even might be a few ponies in the shelter willing to help her out.
