Dead Rising: Pony Psychos
Vinyl Scratch (1/4 Dead Rising 3)
Load Full StoryNext ChapterNick was riding around Los Perdidos in a sports car, he needed to go talk to Rhonda to see if she could help him find Annie but he had a few things to do before that, He had just stopped two neighbors from killing each other and was going to head to the construction site to help out a crying kid but on the way he got a call from Jamie.
“Hello?” Nick said into the phone.
“Um Nick” Jamie replied, “I’m pretty sure you're not going to believe me, but there’s a unicorn playing a turntable over at the new Mexican bar at Sunset Hill, you might want to check it out.” After those words Jamie hung up.
Nick was completely confused, the words “a unicorn playing a turntable” kept playing in his mind he had to find out what was going on, he turned onto the freeway heading to Sunset Hill. The kid at the construction site could wait a little bit. But as he went to the Mexican bar a part of him told him something bad was going to happen.

Nick had just walked up to the bar where Jaime said the unicorn was he found it odd that there were no zombies around the bar he checked his inventory and looked at what weapons he had they were the guan dao that he got from that monk, and three shotguns, he then opened the door to the bar.
“Hello anyone in here?” Nick said as he walked in to the bar.
As he looked into the main part of the bar he saw a lot of dead bodies, thankfully they all look to be zombies and as he looked around he saw a turntable.
"Someone was here." Nick thought.
He went to the turntable to see if anything was there, but as he did he heard something.
“Well hello there.” A mysterious voice called out.
Nick quickly turned around and was stunned by what he saw.
Just like Jayme told him there was a unicorn no bigger than a pony with a white coat and a blue mane and tail and a set of purple sunglasses covering it’s eyes standing in front of him.
“D-did you just talk?” Nick asked.
“Of course I did, I’m the only one here besides you.” The unicorn replied but judging from the voice Nick guessed it was a girl.
“Um ok, do you need some help?” Nick added.
“Look around you do you think I need any help?”
“No, hey can I get your name?”
“I’m Vinyl Scratch. Or you could call me by my stage name, DJ PON3.”
“Ok Vinyl what are you doing here?”
“Isn’t it obvious? I’m doing a show here I’m just taking a break before my next performance.” Vinyl answered as she started to walk to the turntable as she did that Nick notices two things
One she had a mark on her hind leg that looked like a music note and two she had blood spots all over her.
“A show? Look I don’t think anyone is going to go to your show because there's a zombie outbreak going on.” Nick said.
Vinyl looked at Nick and yelled, “THEY’LL SHOW UP!”
“Whoa, look I don’t think that will happen.” Nick spoke.
“Oh I see you're just like the others, you think I’m nothing like everypony else well look at me now I’m the best there is.”
“Hey, I didn’t say that.”
“So you think you're better than me, you think you can just go over to that turntable and upstage me well let me tell you something I worked hard to get where I am now and ponies like you are always making fun of me and, I WON’T HAVE YOU DOING THE SAME THING!”
After Vinyl said those words Nick saw her horn glow and he started to back away for fear of what that meant.
“Hey I didn’t mean anything” Nick said trying to calm down the unicorn.
“Sure you didn’t” Vinyl replied sarcastically.
Right as those words were said a record started to hover over the pony, Nick didn’t have time to question how, as it was quickly shot at him.
“WOAH!” He yelled as he rolled under the flying record.
Just as he got back up he saw the unicorn run to the turntable and pick up a gun that appeared to have a few modifications.
“I’M SICK AND TIRED OF PONIES MAKING FUN OF MY MUSIC!!!” Vinyl yelled as she pointed the gun at Nick.

BANG
The gun went off firing three small bullets at Nick, who had jumped to the right. Three more rounds were fired, all of which ending the same, and Nick ducking behind a table.
"Gotta think. What to do?" Nick thought looking from side to side.
BANG
A shot just barely missed him.
“Well, why not?” He got onto the table and lunged forward, jumping over a bullet that was just fired, somersaulting onto the ground right in front of Vinyl, grabbing the gun in the magic aura and throwing it off to the side.
Nick looked around for the unicorn who had disappeared. He turned around to see a hoof flying toward his face. Which he managed to grab the side of the hoof, move his head out of the way, and smash down on the Vinyl's stomach, knocking her to the ground.
Vinyl flipped back up, growling at Nick. She then swung a hoof at Nick, who smacked it away. She then swung her other hoof, which he grabbed, spun her around and pulled her hoof over her back, hurting her. She then jumped off the ground back flipping over him, and hitting him in the leg, tripping him. She then proceeded to punch his face.
Vinyl’s horn started to glow, and the gun began to glow the same color and moved to her, she then pointed the gun at Nick’s head.
“Shows over for you.” Vinyl said as she started to pull the trigger.
Nick quickly smacked the gun away from his face before the gun went off, and kicked her away from him.
Nick grabbed one of his shotguns and pointed it at the unicorn, but before he had time to fire the pony ran up to him and tackled him, and as he fell he hit his head on a table almost knocking him out
“Damn it! That hurt.” Nick thought, “If I don’t find some food, I’m done.”
He looked around for something to eat and he soon found a bear, but there was a problem, it was right next to Vinyl.
Nick had to get to that bear, he couldn’t see anything else to eat and if that pony hit him just once it would be enough to kill him, he needed to find someway to stun the unicorn for a few seconds then he remembered something Vinyl said “You think you can go over to that turntable and upstage me?” he looked over at the turntable it was his best shot, he ran over to it
Now, Nick was a mechanic, and he didn’t know the first thing about a turntable so he just started pressing buttons and turning knobs this was making a horrible sound that could make cats deaf he was sure the pony wouldn't buy it, thankfully he was wrong.
“Are you making fun of, MY MUSIC!!!!!” Vinyl yelled, at this point Nick could see rage overcome her but she wasn’t doing anything so he took his chances and ran over the bear and drank it as fast as he could but after he was done he saw that the pony was still standing there so he grab her and put her in a headlock and hit her face a few times before grabbing both sides of her head and slamming her face into his knee. “RRRGH!” Vinyl grunted and picked up a chair with her magic, and threw it at Nick. Who, unfortunately, did not move in time.
The chair smashed into his head and broke apart, creating large chunks of wood all over the ground. Nick fell on the ground holding his hands up to his harmed face , and rolling around in pain. Vinyl saw an opportunity, and picked up a leg of the char which was now splintered on one end. She threw it at Nick, who had just gotten over the pain, and saw the splintered piece of wood coming towards him. He grabbed another leg of the chair and swatted it away.
“I got to end this!” Nick thought as he jumped onto his feet still holding the piece of the chair he looked at Vinyl and swung his new weapon at her but she blocked it before it hit her and tried the same attack at Nick who blocked it as well the two of them continued this until Vinyl gained the upper hand and whacked Nicks weapon away from him. Nick knew this wasn’t good and started to back away from the pony until he saw another chair he ran up to it and threw it at Vinyl who caught it just in time but when she looked up she saw Nick run up to, and kick, her in the face.
Nick felt as if time was slowing down and a part of him said that the fight had just ended.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Vinyl stumbled backwards Nick could see that she was finished.
“You little prick! You think you’ve won? I can see it in your eyes!” Vinyl yelled out, “But I’m not done just yet I won’t stop until you're DEAD!”
Vinyl then jumped on Nick and pushed him over to the bar counter knocking a few bottles that were laying there, as her horn started to glow Nick did want to know what she was trying to do and tried to reach for one of the bottles and grab what he thought was a bottle and swung it at Vinyl but it wasn’t until it was too late that he saw he had actually picked up a knife.
“AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!” The pony screamed He had cut through her sunglasses and he could see some blood come out before Vinyl looked away from him.
“I-I can’t see wh-what did you do to me” Vinyl said as she started to walk around, “You blinded me you prick!!!”
She continued to walk absentmindedly before yelling out, “Why did you three leave me here?! We were stuck here together and you all run off leaving me to die!”
Nick notice that she was getting close to the exit and pushed open the door and walked outside, but unlike before there was a group of zombies right outside the door.
“HEY WAIT!” Nick yelled as he tried to get to Vinyl but by the time he got close a zombie had grab her and started to tear her apart and her screams only brought more zombies.
Nick looked away and covered his ears this was the third life he had ended but for some reason he felt that there might have been a way to save this one.

Alternate Death scene 2
“AUGH! My face!” Vinyl screamed and stepped backwards. “YOU PRICK!” Vinyl started throwing punches at Nick, which he easily dodged.
Vinyl then caught his leg and tripped him. She jumped on top of him and started choking him. He tried to get her off, but she was too strong.
He finally had enough and grabbed a chair part that had broken off and smashed it against her head. She rolled off him, but got back up to her hoofs. She then lunged herself at Nick, Nick clenched his fists, and swung at her face, smashing her left lens.
Blood fell onto the floor, the glass shard had gone into her eye. “AAAAAAARGH! YOU BASTARD!” She screamed stumbling back, covering her bloody eye with her hoofs.
Nick stepped back as Vinyl waddled around in pain. She took her glasses off, and stared angrily at Nick, who had now backed up into the door.
“I’LL KILL YOU!” She shouted and started running toward him. Nick just stood there until she was a few feet away, and jumped for him. He moved to the left causing Vinyl to accidentally open the door and fall out of the bar, rolling on the ground outside. Where a group of zombies were. The zombies started to tear her apart, leaving her to scream.
Nick watched in horror as the zombies ate the unicorn. More and more zombies attacked until she was surrounded and Nick couldn’t see what was going on anymore. He closed the bar door, and thought about what had just happened. He dropped to the floor and rested for a bit.

Ending 3
“Argh!” Vinyl stumbled backwards. She had just been kicked in the face. She needed to get her gun some how. She got an idea.
She channeled her magic, waiting a few seconds before releasing the spell.
“WHOA” Nick had just been blinded by a flash of light. That should give Vinyl enough time. She looked around for her gun, and found it lying on the floor quite a ways away from her. She used her levitation on it and pointed it at the now blind Nick.
She pulled the trigger, but it wouldn’t go off. “OH NO!” She hit the gun a few times, but it did nothing. She finally just gave up and ran for the door.
Nick had just gotten over his temporary blindness right when the door of the bar shut. He ran to the door and got outside. Zombies were around. And one had Vinyl in it’s hands! Taking out his shotgun he pointed it at the zombies head, and fired. The zombie dropped Vinyl and fell back.
He ran over to the pony, thankfully she wasn’t bit but she was shocked and wasn’t moving Nick needed to get somewhere safe and zombies were already gathering around them he grabbed Vinyl and dragged her back to the bar and shut the door
He left the pony in the ground to recover and looked over at her gun it looked like she combined the barrel of three shotguns in one, he had that amount of shotgun and nothing else to do until the pony got back up so he decided to try to build the gun, after a few minutes he finally built the gun and he still had a shotgun leftover he looked over to the unicorn and saw she had gotten into a sitting position.
“Hey, you ok?” He asked
Vinyl turned her head to look at Nick and said “Th-Thank you”
“It’s ok, but why did you attack me?”
“Because ponies are always make fun of me and my music and now I’m stuck in this place filled with monsters and my friends ran off without me”
“There's more of you?”
“Yeah my three friends and I think I saw six others.”
“Ok, look it’s not safe here but I can get you somewhere safe.”
“Well what are we doing here, lets go!”
