The immune 3

Previous Chapter

It is always said that all ponies are immune to at least one sickness. Some have simple immunities, like from the cold or the chicken pox. Others? Well, lets say that some ponies can't become undead... too bad there are only three...


Havoc spread throughout Ponyville. At least half the population were mindless, flesh hungry zed. The strongest of all ponies were guarding the filly houses. But a group of six had their own plan. Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash had been bitten.. It's been an hour since the bite, and they haven't turned.

"We're the immune!" Rainbow Dash, being a nerd over zed, knows that there is always a group that will never turn.

"That's preposterous!" Rarity yelled, "How can we be immune to such a disease?!"

"Well, ah don' know, but we're darn lucky for it," Applejack spoke up. The three have barricaded the barn, taking their sisters with them, Applebloom and Sweetie Belle. But they knew they couldn't only protect those two. Rainbow Dash took Scootaloo along with them, too.

"Ya'll alright back there?" Applejack shouted behind her.

The three fillies were shaking in fear, unable to respond. "Poor girls, they can't die without their cutie marks! We're gonna live through this, ya hear?"

"O-Okay," Applebloom shuttered.

"Applejack, Rarity, guard the entrances," Rainbow Dash commanded, "I'm gonna devise a plan."

"Sure thing, Dash," Applejack replied, Rarity walking to the other entrance to guard.

"Okay, so Ponyville is bucked, Appleoosa is too far away, and Canterlot is the only other city near us that will believe us." Rainbow Dash brought a map of Equestria with her to tha barn, just in case, :This path goes straight from Ponyville to Canterlot, but is infested. This path, however, is near us and quiet, but is way longer. Obvious answer. Applejack, get a cart and a lot of apples. This is gonna be a long journey. I'm gonna pull the cart to Canterlot. There's too much weight to fly their. We might need two carts, actually. Applejack will pull one with Rarity, Sweetie Belle, and Apple Bloom, while I'll take Scootaloo and all the supplies we need. Got that?"

"Got it!" both Rarity and Applejack yelled, "I'll go get a cart full of supplies from the cellar. I'll go back down an get a driving cart. Ya'll hold tight, ya hear?" Applejack ran out of the door she was guarding, leaving Rainbow Dash to guard herself.

Applejack went straight towards the cellar, not risking anypony being out here. She got a cart, filled it with apples from the harvest, and made her way back.

"Cart #1 is here!" Applejack shouted, "Scootaloo, get yerself comfy in there. I'll go get the driving cart!"

"Okay," Scootaloo said, picking herself up to walk to the cart, "so Rainbow Dash is pulling this one?"

"Yep! And I'll tell you, it's gonna be Cart #Cool!" Rainbow Dash answered, getting a giggle from Scootaloo.

Applejack came back with the driving cart attached to her back. "Allrighty, let's get ta Canterlot!" She said, jumping onto her back hooves and kicking her front hooves in the air.

Rarity, Applebloom, and Sweetie Belle got on the cart and Rainbow grabbed a few of the spare pipes in the barn.

"Whaddya need those for?" Applebloom asked, looking at the pipes.

"Just in case we run into any of them. It's gonna be a long trip."

They headed out of the barn, ready for the long journey ahead of them. Too bad they didn't know that the zed were on their way, too.


Ten minutes later, down the road,

"Jeez, it feels like it's been SOOO LONG," Scootaloo groaned. They were pretty far from Ponyville, but they still weren't safe from the zed.

"Scootaloo, quit yer whining," Applejack said, "we're all bored."

"Actually, Applejack," Rainbow spoke up, being silent for the time they were walking, "We could take a small break. There's a huge clearing up the road. If we get there, we can have a break and eat an apple or two. The crusaders could play a game of tag or something."

"Sounds good, but what if the infected ones come?" Applejack replied. Applejack secretly read books on the zed too, though they were called infected in her books.

"Oh, well we'll defend the crusaders," Rainbow said, almost casually,

"Rainbow, a pipe isn't going to fight off a horde of infected. We gotta keep moving."

"I was just trying to raise moral..."

"I have an idea!" Rarity spoke up, "I could do little tricks with my magic to help pass-

"YOUR MAGIC!" Rainbow shouted, scaring Rarity, "We could TELEPORT there!"

"Rainbow, my dear, I could only teleport two ponies at a time. I couldn't POSSIBLY take all off you there!"

"Just take us one by one, starting with the crusaders!"

"Rainbow, I cold only do it three times in a row at this moment. I could take two crusaders to safety plus myself, but you three must stay."

"Well, take Sweetie Belle and Scoots. The rest of us will be fine."

"Rainbow, are you sure? I mean, wouldn't I be a bad friend?

"Rarity, just take the two and get to Canterlot. It would be safer to travel that way. Less weight."

"If you insist..." Rarity hugged Sweetie Belle and her horn started to glow. After about 5 seconds of them hugging tightly with a magical orb surrounding them, a huge blue flash appeared and Rarity and Sweetie Belle were gone.

Rainbow motioned for Applejack to stop walking, so when she teleports back, she'll be in the same place.

A brilliant blue flash appeared and Rarity sat in Rainbow Dash's cart now. She grabbed Scootaloo and lit her horn, performing the spell yet again. A blue flash signaled the last teleport, and that Rainbow and Applejack could move on.

"Now hold on," Applebloom said, "Why am ah the only one to stay?"

"Because Rarity would be gone with her sister while you're with your sister," Rainbow replied, "Scootaloo wasn't a sister to anypony here."

"Ah guess that makes sense..."

"Now, Applejack, I'm gonna pack the apples in your cart along with me and we're gonna get going. Me and you will take turns pulling the cart."

"Okay, I guess that seems fair," Applejack said.

Rainbow went to go unhook herself to the cart. When she pulled free, she heard a noise from the side of her. She flapped her wings and jumped 3 meters to the air. She quickly dropped into the cart and pulled out one of the pipes.

"Make your move!" She yelled, towards the sound.

A blue stallion jumped out of the surrounding trees. Rainbow, however, didn't notice that he wasn't bitten or damaged. She swung the pipe at his leg, causing him to fall with a shriek. Just before Rainbow made the final blow, she realized that he wasn't infected.

"Omigosh! I'm so sorry!" Rainbow yelled, "Here, let me help you into the cart!"

After examining him, she realized it was Penpal. "I'm so sorry, Penpal! You just scared me!"

Penpal noticed the bites on Applejack and Rainbow. "YOU'RE BITTEN!" He exclaimed, "YOU'RE INFECTED!"

"No, Penpal, we're immune. Please, just come on. We're going to Canterlot."

"Okay then," Penpal said as Rainbow dropped him into her cart. "Looks like you're not carrying me and the supplies anymore," Rainbow mumbled towards Applejack as she harnessed herself in.

"It's gonna be a long walk," Applejack said as they started down the path again.
