2 the Stallion

“Princess what horde” said the guard “no I mean the foal I found was in the middle of a horde and I saved it but let me tell you this is no safe haven and by the way” she stopped she looked right at twilight Cadence started to cry “I’m sorry for what happened”. Wait how did she know spike died "How did you know he died" Twilight asked Cadence stood blank “You don't know what happened do you the crystal empire has fallen the prince is dead everyone was shocked” Cadence sat down on a crate and said "If you see one kill it” said Cadence "see what" they all Asked Cadence replied "A trotter the only way to kill it is to destroy the brain shutting down the body and there is no other way". All of the others were shocked they had never killed anything besides a common plant sometimes. But pony's they thought Cadence had gone crazy but then princess Luna said "she is right there is no other way that's the way it must be done to survive this thing but Cadence how long have you had this foal" asked Luna. "for about a year" She replied. "Wait a year rainbow shouted but this all started this morning". "No you think this just happened overnight you have been asleep for quite some time all of you after facing sombra in the crystal empire for the second time it’s amazing how long you guys slept it’s a new record." She said amazed "Plus the foal I just had to pick him up because well that's my god son and I’m his god mother so I grabbed him then came here to see if the princess is OK but the other I already known had gone and well looks like the princess of magic will now also have to raise the sun cause you just can't keep it sunny all the time and the weather it controls itself so we can't make it rain when we want."  "So how does this end well cadence" said Luna. "We stay here for as long as possible and survive now we know that one of the princesses should be leader and since I know best I should be leader." Said Cadence. Luna agreed “so now we need to find food” but before Cadence could finish they all heard a scream of help from a stallion “That came from the garden” said Rainbow.  “Everyone grab something to fight with unicorns use magic to cook the brain lets go” said Cadence. So they left leaving fluttershy with the foal and they went to the source of the scream it was an Alicorn a male Alicorn. They went to his aid killing every zombie in their way then they had time to fly after a couple zombies had fell dead then each of the ponies that could fly picked up the rest and flew back safely to the castle.

1 the begining

One morning Twilight heard someone had been banging on the door after she woke up to see all her friends were in her house. “Hold on” Twilight said as she went to answer the door there she saw Trixie run in she had a cut on her hind leg and was crying. “Help please twilight sparkle you must help Trixie please” said Trixie sounding very scared. “Why what's going on why are you so beat up Trixie come on let’s get that wound patched up” said Twilight. Twilight had patched up Trixie and gave her some water Trixie thanked Twilight and then sat quietly. “How did you get that wound anyway” asked Twilight. “I have gotten this by running from the trotters” Trixie replied as everyone awoke and not happy to see Trixie. “Zombies yeah right this is one of your tricks isn't it” said rainbow angrily looking down at Trixie. “No I promise come see” said Trixie in a Begging way.  They went to the library terrace and looked outside as they saw everyone in ponyville was now a zombie waiting for their next meal. “Down there look” said Applejack pointing to an alley there standing were three caped crusaders there hood fell to see the cutie mark crusaders had become zombie’s apple bloom sweetie belle and Scootaloo. Rainbow and Rarity and Applejack had now started tears and crying as they saw friends and family as they were now everyone had started to cry but they had to stop cause trotters were now climbing and flying after them.

All of them ran to the door inside and then locked it they were all scared and ever so quiet no one broke the silence they just walked down stairs were a sleepy spike walked to the window for some fresh air and then every pony in the room screamed “no”. Then spike screamed as he was bit grabbed and pulled out to the horror out there his blood everywhere Trixie closed the window and nailed it shut every pony in that room was crying rarity was crying the most for secretly she always had a special place in her heart for spike and no one knew. All that was left of him were organs rapped on the window sill and his body eaten and gone Trixie was the one to break the silence after what they witnessed “we have to leave now”. Twilight nodded her head and teleported all of them to Princess Celestia’s castle but on the throne crying was Princess Luna. Twilight went and asked why she was crying but then they all knew why. Coming from the hall where her room was Lying on the floor was Celestia as a trotter everyone was there in shock her bottom half was gone she was slowly crawling. Then a royal guard came and bashed her head open everyone was in disbelief the ruler of Equestria is gone her kingdom had fallen. Luna ran to her friends and said there is no cure there is no stopping this every pony shocked from what they just heard. Then all of a sudden Princess Cadence came in shattering the nearest window with a foal at hoof. She walked over and put the foal down the foal was not hers because Cadence was never pregnant she stopped and stared and quietly said “horde”.
