A Derpy Apocalypse: Dead Mare Walking

Back at the camp, things weren't going so well. Vinyl had assigned some of the ponies to keep charge of the ARS-ZL. Acronym is pronounced "arzel," it stood for Advanced Radar System - Zed Locator. It could detect hordes, special infected, and hiveminders. The thing was, it broke. The stallions in charge didn't know how (except one), but they knew there was a hiveminder horde approaching, that's the last thing they saw.

"What?!" Vinyl screamed at one of the stallions. She smacked his jaw with the back of her magnum, sending him, a tooth, and some blood flying to the other side of the tent. The stallion crashed to the hard, rocky ground, scraping skin and fur off his foreleg. He felt the area of impact on his jaw, which then was a swollen-up spot on his face with a cut where the dull tip of the magnum penetrated his skin. "What do you mean it broke?!"

"It was an accident!" The stallion said, scooting back to the corner of the tent. "I picked it up looking at the cords, and it malfunctioned!"

"I told you NOT to play with THE BUCKING EQUIPMENT!" Vinyl shouted again, pounding him once more with her magnum. The stallion covered his face in fear that she would eventually kill him. He could barely feel anything in his jaw now, the last blow knocking three more teeth out, followed by a stream of blood. The little cut on the bruise he had was now a huge tear in his face, streaming out blood like a waterfall. The stallion laid on the ground weeping, trying to keep the blood in his lower jaw. Vinyl pulled the magnum to his head and almost fired, until Turner walked in with Ditsy.

"Vinyl! Hold your fire!" he shouted. Vinyl put her weapon down.

"If you insist." she replied with hate in her voice.

"Why are you trying to kill him?" Turner asked.

"He broke the Ars-zl!" Vinyl shouted. "The last thing we saw was a hiveminder with a horde of zed following it!!!" Turner looked at the stallion.

"I have another idea." Turner said. "Let's punish him with the possible fate he gave us." Vinyl looked at him confusedly. "That means lets use him as bait."

"Oh," Vinyl replied. "that's a great idea!" She grabbed the stallion and brought him to his feet. She motioned a couple of stallions over. "Throw him out." She ordered. The stallions responded with a 'yes ma'am,' and grabbed the stallion.

"NO PLEASE!!!" he shouted. "I BEG YOU PLEASE SPARE MY LIFE!!!" The two stallions threw him out of the camp and closed the gates. "NO!!" The stallion screamed again. "THEY'RE COMING!!! HELP ME!!!" He started to swear excessively as the zeds got closer. The first on jumped on him and dug it's teeth into the stallions face. The stallion screamed as his eye was torn apart by the monsters vicious mouth. Two other zeds jumped on him, tearing his two forelegs off, leaving him as a two legged, standing corpse. The zeds tore the stallion to pieces, as others tried to intrude the camp.

"ZEDS!!!" One of the stallions shouted, trotting to the weapons tent. Others followed, and before long, everypony had a weapon and were firing at the zeds. The horde burst into the camp, ready to claim it's next victim. Derpy grabbed a fresh, sharp machete, Time Turner got a 12 gauge shotgun, Vinyl retrieved her magnum from it's holster while also grabbing a combat knife. Carrot Top stood by them with her Predator Bow, along with Rainbow Dash, wielding a huge sniper rifle.

"Kill'em all!" Vinyl shouted firing her magnum at a zed's face.
