Dead Equestria: Dante Clarke

  After a few weeks, everypony was starting to get used to Dante. The Cutie Mark Crusaders absolutely adored him, as he did them. He stayed at the farm with Applejack, she seemed to like him more than any other pony. He was getting used to Equestria and its ways. He knew that sun and moon rose because of Celestia and Luna. He knew that Twilight's brother ruled the Crystal Empire, and he knew that this would be home soon. He told the Mane Six about his world, his job, and the Markers and how they created the Necromorphs and how they terrorized the Earth, and how his father Issac destroyed all of the Markers. He felt like he was going to be getting over his death a lot faster while he was here. He was watching the Cutie Mark Crusaders while they played on the farm, and Applejack walked up to him.

"Hey, thanks Dante for watching the girls. They really seem to like you." She said smiling. "Yeah, they really do." He said looking at her smiling. "So, where's your suit?" She asked. "Its in the wardrobe, why?" He asked. "I was just wonderin' just in case ya need it." She said. He just smiled wider at her and she started to blush. Then Dante noticed that the bushes were rustling again. "Applejack go get my Plasma Cutter." She could hear the seriousness in his voice and ran off to get his Plasma Weapon.

He kept close watch on the girls and the bushes. Applejack hurried back with the Plasma Cutter and handed it to him. He held it down trying not to scare the girls. The bushes stopped rustling to reveal a bunny. Applejack and Dante sighed in relief that it was just a bunny. Then the bunny was slaughtered by a single stab by a mysterious arm that made them jump. The bushes continued to rustle revealing a Necromorph from the bushes. Dante's eyes widened and he rushed towards the girls.

"GIRLS MOVE NOW!!!!!" He shouted running towards them. They turned to see the Necromorph running towards them. They stood there petrified in horror as it charged at them. "NOW!!!!" He shouted again. They began to run as fast as they could but they weren't fast enough to outrun it. It raised its blade to slash at them but Dante raised his Plasma Cutter and shot it off. It began to charge at him but he shot its leg off and then it's head, killing it.

  Dante ran over to the girls and hugged them tight. "Are you girls alright?" He asked. "Yes." Applebloom said sniffling. He looked at her and put his hands on her shoulders. "Hey, hey, don't cry, it's okay. I'm here, I'm right there." He said hugging her and stroking her hair trying to calm her down. She hugged him tighter and began to calm down. Dante still felt her tears on his shoulder.

He brung Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo back into the hug. "Are you two okay?" He asked them. "Yes." They said in unison. Dante and Applejack walked back up to the Necromorph. "How? My father destroyed all of the Markers, how are the Necromorphs still alive.?" They stood over the body until Dante spoke up again. "I'm going to Celestia and find out whats going on here." He said walking off. Applejack followed close by.

  Dante was walking towards the throne when he was stopped by the guards. "I have a few questions Celestia." She stared at him giving the signal to ask his questions. "Why are the Necromorphs still alive, my father destroyed all of them." Celestia became worried. "I was afraid this was going to happen." She said. "Afraid of what?" She started to walk down to him. "Come with me. I must show you something." She said walking past him.

  He followed close by until they reached a big, old, black door. "What's this?" Dante asked. Celestia shot her magick at the keyhole in the middle of the door, and it slowly opened. They walked inside and the room had a red glow to it and it was sending a creepy vibe to both of them. The walk further to come across a dial, with a sun, a moon, and Equestria in the middle.

Celestia spoke up. "This is a dial I made to show how long my spell will last, when we found the Marker and saw what it could do. I cast a spell on it that would suppress it's evil powers, but only for a period of time. When the eclipse happens, the Marker's powers will be released." Dante just stared in horror, he thought that his father had destroyed all of the markers, he thought that the horrible tyrant known as the Necromorphs was gone. He thought wrong.

"H-how? There's gotta be some way to keep it from destroying Equestria!" Celestia looked at him with a doubtful look. "God..." He leaned on a nearby wall. "DAMMIT!!!" He screamed banging on the wall. "We've gotta stop it! If this thing breaks out it's gonna consume Equestria, Earth, hell THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE!!! IT WON'T FUCKING STOP!!!" He fell to his knees and began tear up.

  Celestia walked up to him and gave him a tight hug. "There has, to be, a way." He said between sobs. "Do you remeber how your father, Issac did it?" She asked him. "No." He said. "All I got was a message from my father saying that he was sorry that he couldn't be there for me." He said beginning to sob. She hugged him tighter. "Wait... my father, he-he mentioned something about the a planets core, that's how he destroyed the first one!" He said with a ray of hope shining on his face and he hugged Celestia back. "Thanks Celestia." She smiled and hugged him tighter.
