Logan, Purna, Sam B, and Xian are done with their quests in the city of Moresby and find themselves straying into a jungle. and not just any jungle, the Everfree forest.

Some way, somehow, the squad of immune people find themselves in the Everfree forest instead of a normal tropical jungle. As they find their way out, they discover a mostly untouched Ponyville and more.

This takes place in the game after the player is done with the City of Moresby area and prepares to move on into the jungle.

In The...Forest?

"Oh, what the fuck?" Sam B commented as he saw the literal bloodbath.

There was a young man kneeling in a swimming pool filled with blood and dead bodies. He was weeping over the body of one of the dead.

"My parents, my relatives... Jesus Christ; my own fucking brother..."

Sam went closer to the unknown person.

"What are YOU LOOKING AT?!? I HAD TO! I had no other choice..." The man sobbed more as Sam soullessly grabbed the knife from the body in front of him.

"Sorry, kid." Sam said as he walked away.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Sam wasn't going to lie. Banoi was a nice place.
Before the shit hit the fan, Sam thought.

Sam may have been hardened from his times in the ghetto, but nothing he had been through there had prepared him for this.

It has been five days since the infected first attacked Banoi. Sam was staying at the famous resort hotel when it all went down.

Since then, he had met many other survivors; Logan, Purna, and Xian are the ones to note. Apparently, they were immune to this virus or whatever it was.

Logan was a baseball player, and his baseball throwing skills had carried over into throwing weapons, such as knives and double blades. From what Sam heard, he was busted for drugs.

Purna was a police officer, and her firearms training definitely helped the group get out of many situations.

Xian was supposedly taught to handle bladed weapons very well, Like a fuckin' samurai, Sam grinned to himself as he thought this.

Sam himself was surprisingly skilled with blunt weapons. He had no official training of any sort, but swinging a bat has pulled him through many situations while he was young.

Sam glanced around the modified armored truck.

Of course, they had to have weapons, and firearms and ammo were easily accessible on the little rack that they had set up in the barrier between the driver's section and the back.

Right now, Jin, a girl that they had met along the way was sitting in the passenger's seat. Logan was driving the truck.

Purna was sitting across from Sam and she stayed silent as she cleaned her M4A1. Gun maintenance was never a thing that Sam picked up, but he could definitely fire one if demanded of him.

Xian was sitting next to him, modifying the nice-looking katana that she found. There were a bunch of wires and batteries and other things that she was using.

"Hey, Xian," Sam said. "What you doin' over there?"

"This was a little modification that my grandfather taught me." Xian replied. "You know how a circuit works, right?"

Sam somewhat regretted falling asleep in high school science. But he had remembered something.

"Yeah." Sam said as he suddenly remembered what he was taught. "Why?"

"I strapped a battery and put two wires on the metal of the sword to make a complete circuit throughout the sword," Xian explained. "Once the sword even touches one of those infected, the current will short-circuit and run through the zombie's body instead of just through the metal."

Sam looked down at his own weapon of choice. A sledgehammer given to him, surprisingly, by a nun.

"Hey, once you're done, can ya hand me those leftovers? I think I can make something like that with this giant-ass hammer." Sam said.

"Sure. I'm almost finished."
___________________________________________________________________________________________
After some time, Sam was done with his own modifications. This involved a weight plate, some batteries, wires, and a few other things. He looked at his creation with pride.

It was a sledgehammer with electrified spikes. It's fuckin' beautiful. Sam thought. He couldn't wait to test it out.

"Shit." Logan said, seemingly frustrated.

"What?" Purna, Sam and Xian asked almost simultaneously.

"The bridge is out," answered Logan. "We're gonna have to take the rest of the way by foot."

"Don't mind going on a walk," Purna said as she cocked her rifle.
____________________________________________________________________________________________

As the group was walking, they heard a sort of growl.

"WATCH OUT!!" Jin warned as a walker jumped up at them.

That walker wasn't alone, though. More than a giant mob was behind them.

As Purna took to the trees, Sam and Xian went in different directions as Logan protected Jin.

At first, the sledgehammer was a bit of a disappointment. Damn. It's just a hammer with spikes. Sam thought as he rammed into a small group.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
Jin couldn't help but feel insignificant as she watched the others fight off the infected.

There must be something I could do, Jin pondered. Dad's revolver! Jin suddenly remembered as she pulled it out.

As she checked the chamber, she saw that it was fully loaded.

Alright, Jin. Remember what Dad taught you. Relaxed elbows. Sights. Aim for the head.

She aimed and squeezed the trigger, hoping that it would hit something.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
Suddenly, one of the walker's heads exploded and Sam turned around in surprise.
Jin was looking down her sights as the barrel of her gun smoked a bit.

"Thanks, Jin," Sam shouted as he was attacked by yet another walker.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
Soon enough, all the walkers and floaters were dead.

Except for one.

A walker missing its arm suddenly stood up and charged towards the gathering group.

"I got dis," Sam said as he raised his sledgehammer.

Time seemed to slow down for him as he brought the head of his hammer around him and into the walker's chest.

And seemed to speed up again as the now electrified walker flew unrealistically fast into the nearby rock wall and explode into a bloody mess.

Sam looked again at his hammer, as stunned as the walker was.

"By the power of Mjol-fuckin'-nir..." Sam joked. "I am Thor, god of Thunder!" He said as he raised his weapon.

"Nice work, Sam." Logan said as he walked up to the exploded walker.

"We'll need to get going soon, though. That explosion attracted some more." Xian said as she turned around.

"Right behind you," Jin responded as she holstered her gun.

Sorry I didn't put anything pony-related in this chapter. I promise there will be pony content in the next chapter.

In The...Forest? Part 2

Rainbow Dash was doing her usual flyover as she scouted for more of those living dead ponies. Ponyville had turned itself into a makeshift fortress when these...things started appearing.

She then spotted a small group of... she wasn't quite sure what they were.

She flew down to meet whatever they were, hoping that they weren't infected, too.

"Hey there!" she greeted as she touched down on the ground.

"Oh, my sweet Celestia! It's Rainbow Dash!" the one with the hammer said excitedly.

"Ummm... Who are you again?" Rainbow said confused.

The guy with the knife spoke up. "Sorry. I'm Logan. This is Purna-" he pointed to a woman with a rifle " Xian-" he pointed to another woman with a long sword "And Sam B." He said as he pointed to the one with the hammer.

"Wait a minute... How do you know my name?" Dash said as she realized that this has happened before.
"...it's because of the show, isn't it?"

"What show?" Purna asked.

"My Little Pony! Friendship is Magic!" Sam said. "Don't tell me you haven't hear of it!"

Logan turned to face Sam, obviously shocked. "Wait, so let me get this straight. You, of all people, ghetto hardened Sam, shit talkin' rapper Sam, and most of all, a GROWN ASS MAN watches a show for 9 year old little girls?"

Logan started laughing. "You of all people, Sam," he said between laughs. "Really? Really? Oh, this is too good."

Sam punched a laughing Logan in the shoulder.

"Shut up! It's a good show!"

"I have to say, she is cute..." Purna said as she knelt down to look at Rainbow.

"I'm not cute!" Rainbow said angrily. "I'm awesome! And we're gonna need to get out of here soon with all that noise that guy is making," she said as she pointed a hoof at Logan.

"Shit. Don't tell me. The infection is here, too?" Sam said as he approached the mare.

"You mean all the zombies and weird stuff that's been going on? I'd say it's here, alright."

"Well, fuck." Sam said. "How'd it end up here?"

As he asked his question, he noticed that there were infected ponies closing in on them.

Rainbow said, "I have to go. Clear this place and meet me at Ponyville. If you know the way."

"I do." Sam said as he brought his hammer down on the first lucky customer. And by lucky customer, I mean zompony.

Ponyville

Ah, Ponyville. A peaceful little town.

Or not. Sam B thought as he scanned for Rainbow Dash or Ponyville. Since he was the only apparent brony in the group, he was the only one that knew the way around the Everfree Forest.

As he came up to what he knew was Fluttershy's cottage, he saw that it was unusually empty.

As he told the others to stay on the path to get to Ponyville, he went inside the cottage to look for something. Anything.

As he entered, it was usually quiet. No crickets chirping, no birds flying, nothing. Then he heard a rattling cage and he looked around.

The cottage was unusually clean, even though it looked abandoned from the outside. Sam kept panning in a 360 degree sort of way until he found the source of the noise.

It was a rabbit locked in a cage.

An infected rabbit.

The rabbit was trying desperately to escape its cage and taste the sweet meat of living flesh, and only the bars of the cage were holding it back.

A note was on the inside of its cage. Almost untouched. Sam noted.

It only had three heartbreaking words on it.

I'M SORRY, ANGEL

"Fuck..." Sam said to himself quietly as he looked at the bunny, presumably Angel.

Sam looked around again and he saw a pile of ashes on the floor.

Is that... Sam thought.

A great fiery bird rose from those ashes, shedding enough light to illuminate the whole room.

Sam was blinded by the light, but his eyes quickly adjusted and shifted to Angel, again.

After a while of staring at the undead Angel, Sam wished that none of his favorite characters were hurt or killed during the apocalypse.

Sam slowly pulled out his Beretta as he walked toward Angel's cage.

Sam turned the safety off and positioned the barrel on Angel's forehead.

"I'm sorry, Angel."
______________________________________________________________________________________________

Not too far ahead was Logan, Xian, Purna, and Jin.

CRACK

They heard the sound of a single pistol shot.

Purna and Jin readied their guns as Logan and Xian brandished their own weapons.

"DON'T SHOOT!" they heard a familiar voice call.

It was Sam B with his pistol in his hand.

"What the hell happened back there?" Logan asked.

"You wouldn't understand..." Sam said.

They then noticed that Sam was carrying something wrapped up in a cloth and decided not to ask what it was until they arrived.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________

As they arrived at Ponyville, they were greeted by the sounds of armor clanking and clinking as guards on a makeshift defense wall readied their weapons.

"STOP AND IDENTIFY YOURSELF!" one shouted.

Rainbow Dash flew over the guards and went to rest with the group.

"Relax, fellas. They're with me."

"Yes ma'am. Sorry, ma'am." More clinking was heard as they relaxed.

The gates of the walls opened and Rainbow Dash led them inside.
______________________________________________________________________________________________

Ponyville could have been in better condition. But it also could've been worse.

"Hey, Rainbow," Sam called. "Is Fluttershy here?"

"Yeah." Rainbow pointed a hoof to a giant gingerbread-looking house.

"Sugarcube Corner, huh?" Sam said in bewilderment.

"Mhm." Rainbow flew off to Celestia knows where.

Sam left the group, who were meeting all the other ponies and talking to them to go talk to Fluttershy and possibly Pinkie, if she was there, too.

As Sam opened the door, luckily, no one else was inside but Fluttershy.

Fluttershy was sitting in a couch, probably the one she brought from her cottage.

She squeaked in fear at Sam's entry and hid behind the couch.

Sam knew how she was and said, "Fluttershy?"

Still under the couch, she almost whispered, "H-How do you know my name...?"

Sam B walked over to the plush looking couch and crouched down to Fluttershy's hiding spot.

"It's okay. I'm not going to hurt you." He put on the most gentle tone that he could. I'd imagine it sounded ridiculous, considering the type of guy that Sam is.

"I'm Sam B." He said to the cowering pegasus.

"Oh, hello, Mr. Sam," Fluttershy said as she came out from underneath the couch to shyly sit on the couch next to him.

"I passed by your cottage a few minutes ago."

"Oh...Are there any animals left?"

"Only two... if you count Angel, too."

Fluttershy teared up at the sound of her pet's name.

"How is my little bunny?" she asked.

"I'm sorry Fluttershy..." Sam himself teared up as he pulled out the cloth package that he was carrying.

At this, Fluttershy was almost afraid to think of what the package contained. Yet, she was drawn to satisfy her curiosity.

Inside, was Angel. His days of being infected took its toll as Sam noticed at the cottage. Fur and bits of flesh had fallen off and led to a few bald spots. Part of Angel's ribs were showing as that spot was skin bare. A rabid look was frozen onto Angel's face and there was also a hole in his head.

It was too much for Fluttershy to handle. Sam could see her pupils shrink right before she burst into tears. She had not cried like this in a while, since she left her cottage with all her animals. And only to receive that Angel, the pet that she loved most, was dead, was the breaking point for her.

"I'm so sorry, Fluttershy." Sam said as tears of his own started flowing. "I had to... Angel was infected."

Fluttershy sniffed and nodded. She at least understood it needed to be done.

Sam left the yellow mare to weep over her dead pet as he left to meet up again with the others.

THEME SONG TIME!!!

"Things that go bump in da night..."

Sam sang as he walked the perimeter of Ponyville under the watchful eye of the guards. Of course Sam kept a weapon with him. As he learned before, never be without a weapon.

"Heh. Sam B."

His hit song "Who Do You Voodoo, Bitch?" was the reason why he was really popular. He described it as more of a joke at the time he actually produced it. Out of laziness, this time, he just skipped to the first refrain.

"I got a zombie army and you can't harm me. WHO DO YA VOODOO BITCH!"

It rose in popularity, coincidentally, right before this virus thing hit.

"Sam B got the thing that go bump in da night. WHO DO YA VOODOO BITCH!

"Drinkin' blood like a vampire without warnin' WHO DO YA VOODOO BITCH!"

These infected people and ponies were drinking the blood and eating the remains of their own species.

"Hide your kids; Grab yo wife better get out of sight. WHO DO YA VOODOO BITCH!"

He had no intention of referencing that rapist song thing on youtube that went viral. There it was, though.

"Sam B to Papa Shanko and Baron Samedi
Handful of fingertips toss 'em up like confetti..."
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
As Sam finished his rounds of the perimeter, he also finished his last chorus of "WHO DO YOU VOODOO BITCH!!!"

He smiled to himself as he remembered the "good times", also known as before all this.

That was only a faint memory as a group of zomponies started closing in on Sam.

"Shit." He said to himself.

As he picked up his pace, he couldn't help but muse one of his verses; "Red light; leave 'em dead, running like a track meet."
