The Galloping Dead

A city known as Fillydelfia has been a town of interest for years. Princess Celestia has always looked at that place as if it were Canterlot itself. Of course, that town was one of the first to be infected by the CAPD. The city has no life. Just those walking dead Ponies. They wander around the place looking for food. Like a horse, a cow, or a lonely wanderer. It’s impossible to get past those alone. Or with just two Ponies. The cities themselves had thousands of occupants before the CAPD and when it was released, few made it out alive. The exact population of Fillydelfia before the CAPD was 15,925 Ponies. Only a few hundred escaped. So you take a town with over ten thousand undead Ponies, and only a few alive Ponies try to take it over, you lose.

But a gang of Ponies came up with a diversion. A Pegasus powered flying machine. It was big enough for all the undead Ponies to see it. And over half of them followed. Thousands of miles across Equestria the dead ponies walked. Even though they lost sight of the Pegasus’ machine. They kept walking just because they were before. They don’t know why. They do. If they start walking, they won’t stop unless they see something of interest. If they don’t, they go. A lot of them stray off if the walk is long. Which is what happened this case. Only about two hundred undead Ponies were left walking the same way. Because the others strayed off.

And the undead Ponies were heading straight towards a small farm…

Back at Fillydelfia, the gang of Ponies took over a building at the edge of towns. The gangs elite members wore hoods so the other live Ponies couldn’t see their true faces. Their true identities. This was vital to the gang staying hidden from the rest of the living society. No elite member could be seen. Even the regular members wore something to cover their faces. They wore makeup or a black mask over their eyes. No one outside of their gang knew who they truly were. Even in the gang they had nicknames.

The nicknames were given to them for what they accomplished. If they were new to the gang, they were just called Rookie 1 or Rookie 2 and so forth. But if one were to kill, say hundreds of undead Ponies, they would get a name like ‘The Killer’, or something of that sort. The gang had its ups and downs, but they managed to survive in the present state of Equestria.

These, are the new inhabitance of Fillydelphia…
