A story about a few ponies and how they try to survive the zombie apocalypse.

Read before reading the story.
Ok before we go anywhere with this story I must warn you that I gave ponies vehicles like buses and transport trucks. The only reason I did this is because I feel it would help with the story. All the tactics in the story I used are kind of based off of a youtuber who goes by the name Frankieonpcin1080p. If you don't know who this is then I think you should check him out. His Day-Z series is the best.

This story is about a stallion named Night Streak who's former job before the epidemic struck was just a simple weather pony. All of it changes when the city (Fillydelphia) is struck with a nasty virus that turns ponies crazy and bloodthirsty. Things only get worse as he tries his best to help ponies that haven't turned. It would be easier if some ponies didn't want to kill each other on site.

The tag says teen but that's subject to change if the twisted part of my mind takes control over this story.

Just a Normal Day

RIIIING RIIIING RIIIING.

The sound of my alarm clock going off while I try to ignore it. I turn in my bed and face the clock and just stare at it trying to turn it off with my mind but of course, fail in my attempt to do so. Letting out a long sigh I get up and walk over to my dresser with my alarm clock sitting on top of it. I flick the light switch on and punch my alarm clock to make it stop. Once the alarm stopped I checked my clock because I thought I heard the sound of glass breaking.

“Just great. I really hate Mondays.” I mumble to myself. Next time don’t punch clock. I thought to myself.

I go to take a quick shower and get ready for work. I comb my blue striped black mane a little and once satisfied a shake my head violently messing it up because you know, why not. I walk out of my apartment and made sure to lock the door. I give my wings a quick stretch and fly off to the office to see what the weather schedule for the day was.

“Sup bro,” my friend said flying next to me. “You look like you had a rough morning.” he said with a chuckle.

“Today’s Monday. My mornings are always bad on Mondays.” I told him.

Cloud Breaker was my best friend here in Fillydelphia. We grew up together so he would get a quick out of seeing me on Monday morning. My entire life only consists of two days and those are Mondays (which suck) and Fridays (which are the best). Cloud was a blue pegasus with a brown mane. His cutie mark was just a normal cloud.

“So Night, what do you think the weather for the day is going to be?” he asked with a suggestive smile.

“Not sure but I hope it rains because I just wanna sleep today.” I said.

“You always wanna sleep.”

“Actually I was planning on hanging out with Silver Beats and her band, they said they needed help fixing some stuff.”

“That’s cool, I got nothing to do after this so can I join?”

“Yeah, sure.”

We finally arrived at work and start setting up the clouds. The weather today was just cloudy so all we did was place a few clouds in random locations. It took us two hours to finish but once we were we done we took off to the recording studio where my friend Silver Beats would be. Before we got there Cloud and I took a quick stop to get a snack since we always skip breakfast. Once we got there we were greeted by a grey mare with a black mane.

“Hey Silver I’m here and I brought Cloud.” I said a little loud.

“Finally, geez what took you guys so long?” she asked.

“We got a snack.” Cloud answered.

“Did you get me anything?” she asked with a hopeful smile.

“No.” I replied.

“Well I guess somepony isn’t going to go to the concert for free then.” she said facing away from us.

“Hey no fair. Come on give me a break you know I don’t eat breakfast.” I say with a pleading tone.

“Okay fine, this time I forgive you but next time bring me something.” she said with a smile.

We finally finished the conversation and went to the equipment room to see what was broken. I wasn’t too surprised to see that they blown up three speakers. Cloud on the other hand had his jaw hanging.

“Yeah, I think that Golden Strings went a little over-board at practice last night. Can you fix it?” she asked.

“Yeah, give me an hour.” I say. “Cloud can you hand me the screwdriver?” I asked to the still shocked pony.

He snaps out of his astonishment and walks over to the tool box on one of the nearby tables. I start to unscrew the broken amplifier parts and replace them with the new ones. Once I finished I checked the clock on the wall and saw that only fifty minutes went by. Great I finished early. I thought to myself. I told Silver that we were done and left. Cloud just went home but I remembered that I had to go the store and get a new alarm clock. Once I got my clock I went straight home. After setting up the clock, I just picked up my laptop and laid down in bed. I checked my email to see mostly junk but one email caught my attention.

“From dad, What does he want?” I said to myself.

I opened it up and read what it said:

Hey son how have you been? I miss you and so does your mom. Sorry we haven’t sent you any emails for a while. I’ve had to train some new recruits and your mom…well you know we can’t talk about what she does.

Hope to hear from you soon.

-Dad

Dad was in the army and mom is a scientist. I have no idea what she does exactly but she couldn’t tell me because it was apparently top secret. The reason this email was weird was because my dad sent it to me. My dad and I never got along when I still lived with my parents. He was strict and very disciplinary. He wasn’t always that way but that changed when he became a drill sergeant. He started getting unbearable to be around so Mom divorced him and left. When she did, Dad calmed down a bit. We started to bond and stuff, he taught me all the fighting moves he taught his soldiers and how to use a gun. One time we went camping and I got lost in the forest for three days. My dad found me on the third day which was good ‘cause I ran out of food. Luckily I didn’t run into anything dangerous. After a while, Mom came back and remarried my dad. By the time that happened I was planning on moving out of the house. When she did come back he starting being that strict parent again and was always getting on me about school.

After a little thought I finally came up with something to email him back.

I’m fine. Work is boring as always but everything is good. I miss you guys too. I would visit but I don’t have the money and you know how lazy I am. Hope your new soldiers haven’t been giving you too much trouble.

I read over my email before clicking send. I just started watching some stupid videos on internet before getting really bored. I got onto skype to see if anyone wanted to play some games with me. No one was online so I just started to play Arma 3. Once I got on I clicked on the server I go to play the Atlas Life mod. I connected my controller (I use my wings to play with the controller) and just played until it was time to eat. After having a little war with the cops (I was a rebel on the server) I quit and checked the time. 1:00 p.m. I played for four hours. This speaks wonders on how exciting my life really is. Deciding it was time for lunch I got up and headed out the door to go to my favorite place. The donut shop. After I got donuts (and practically scarfed them down) I went to nearby shooting range. It had been a while since I had shooting practice. Once I got there I was greeted by an earth pony with a brown mane and a light brown coat who went by the name The Gunsmith.

“Well, well, well look who’s back. My star shooter, how ya been?” the earth pony asked throwing a hoof around my neck.

“Hey Gun, sorry I haven’t come in for a while guess my laziness is catching up with me.” I said with a sheepish smile.

“That’s fine, you’re here now aren’t you? Your old sniper has just been collecting dust, why not give her a go?”

“Alright.”

I walked over to the locker with my Intervention and opened it. I grabbed the strap of the gun and put it on so the gun was on my back. After that we both walked over to the woods where he would everything set up. We both went to the wooden watch tower and he took his position as my spotter. I laid down prone with one hoof on the trigger and the other on the magazine. I closed my left eye as I looked through the scope and found my target. A can.

“No wind. Looks like 500 meters.” Gun informed me.

I took in a deep breath and fired. The gun gave a violent kick into my shoulder which hurt a little but I just ignored it. Keeping my scope on the target I saw the can explode. The shot still ringing in my ears I let out the deep breath and pulled back the bolt. I heard the shell hit the floor with a light ping sound.

“You still got it Night.” Gun said with a big smile on his face.

“Thanks but I don’t know how I would do without you.” I said pushing the bolt forward.

An hour of sniping went by before I returned home. This time I brought my Intervention with me so I could clean it. Once I was done I stretched and yawned turning my head toward the clock on the wall. 6:00 p.m. “Well it’s time for bed.” I said to myself. I got up and walked over to my room. I closed the door and propped my gun against the door frame then jumped into my bed. I pulled the covers over my body and closed my eyes.

That’s one boring day down. Can’t wait to have another tomorrow.

I didn’t have work tomorrow so it was going to extra boring at that. after a few minutes of just laying there I finally fell asleep.

Author's Note

So I finally finished the first chapter. This chapter was just to show you what Night does on regular days so don't worry things will happen very soon. Hope yoou guys enjoy. If there are mistakes please tell me.

It Begins (Revised)

A/N: Finally done and way better than the original chapter if you read it. Sorry for making the original chapter really bad but I hope you like this one better.

RIIING RIIING RIIING

That wasn’t the sound of the alarm clock. It was the sound of my phone ringing. I turn in my bed to face the clock. 5:30 a.m. Why is somepony calling me this early in the morning. I get up lazily and walk over to my dresser. I flicked on the light and picked up my phone.

“Hello?” I said with my tired voice.

“Night can you come to the train station?” It was Silver Beats.

“Why?”

“Stary is coming back early from Manehatten. Could you be there by six?” she asked hopeful.

Stary Wubs was the pony she was talking about. Him and Silver have been dating since high school. I guess he had one of those gigs without the band since he made dubstep if you couldn’t tell by his name.

“Fine, but you owe me for this.” I said a little annoyed.

“Okay, deal.” she said hanging up the phone.

I walked to my bathroom and jumped in the shower. I let the warm water hit my fur as I just stood there feeling relieved. I open my wings so I could get them thoroughly wet. After I finished my shower I quickly dried myself and went to my kitchen to make some coffee. I turned on the TV and started to watch the news. I actually just half listen to my TV while I make my coffee. I do a bunch things for no reason because that’s how I am. I heard something about some disease going around called H1Z1(A/N: hey look, a video game reference) and that there was an outbreak at Manehatten. After finishing my coffee I walk out of the house to be greeted by the early morning sun. I take in a deep breath smelling the fresh air (well as fresh as you could get in a city). I take off toward the train station, once I get to the there I spot Silver standing on the platform waiting for the train.

“Hey Silver I’m here.” I say as I walk up to her.

“Hey Night, thanks for coming. Here, I got you something.” she said handing me a donut.

As much as I wanted a donut I couldn’t eat it because I would get a really bad stomach ache if I ate in the morning. I stopped eating breakfast in highschool so I guess my body just adjusted and now rejects breakfast. It’s a good thing I have ADHD, otherwise I wouldn’t have any energy in the mornings. I still do want the donut so I do the next best thing. I grab a little pastry bag from her and put the donut in the bag and save it for later.

“What, you know I don’t eat breakfast.” I say tucking the donut in my right wing.

She just rolled her eyes at me and continued to look for the train. I walked over to a nearby bench and dozed off. The sound of the train whistle woke me. I looked around but couldn’t find Silver. I try to get up but I’m stopped by a weight on my shoulder. It was Silver leaning on me. Guess she dozed off too. I shook her awake and we both got up as the train stopped. Stary was the first to step off and Silver ran up to him and gave him a big hug (awww). I walk over and pick up Stary’s bags.

“Hey Stary, how was it in Manehatten?” I asked as we started to leave the station.

“It wasn’t that great and I got sick in the process.” he told me.

“Sounds like you had a bad time then.” I said as I got a better look at him. He didn’t look like himself. His eyes were bloodshot and he was coughing violently.

“Hey dude you need to go the hospital and get checked out; you don’t look so hot.” I told him.

“Yeah.” Silver agreed.

“I’m *cough* fine, you guys worry too *cough* much.”

I looked at him skeptically but I knew he wouldn’t do what I asked him. We continued on in silence to Silver’s house. Once we got there I set the bags down near the door. I made sure Stary and Silver were fine and said goodbye. I looked at my phone to check the time. 8:15. Great still have a whole day and nothing to do. I decided to head over to Cloud’s place to see what he was up too.

***

“So what are we going to do?” Cloud asked.

“I don’t know, I thought you would have something to do.” I said boredom clear in my voice.

“We could go to a bar.” I gave him a look.

“Really, a bar in the middle of the day.” I said in a serious tone.

“Well then what do you suppose we do, huh?” he asked seemingly upset I shot down his idea.

“Well we could-” RIIING RIIING RIING. My phone interrupting me. I answered the phone. “Hello?”

“Night, meet me at the hospital now.” *click*

“Who was that?” Cloud asked.

“Well I found something to do.” I informed Cloud.

Cloud and I took off towards the hospital at a considerably fast rate. Once we got there we walked in and up to one of the check-in desks.

“Uh, we’re looking for a pony named Stary Wubs.” I said to the mare manning the station.

“Oh, are you related to him?” the mare asked.

“No, we’re close friends of his.” Cloud informed.

“Okay then, follow me; I’ll take you to him.” she said.

We were lead down a hallway (or corridor, which ever you prefer) to one of the many rooms. The mare opened the door and Cloud and I both stepped inside. I saw Stary lying on the bed asleep and Silver sitting in a chair next to the bed. She looks like she’s been crying her eyes out.

“Hey, what happened?” I asked approaching the sad mare.

“I don’t know, after you left I went to get him something to eat because he said he was hungry. While I was in the kitchen I heard things being thrown around; when I looked to see what it was Star was throwing everything around. I tried to calm him down but he started having a seizure or something.” she looked like she was going to cry again.

“Okay, hey look it’s not your fault. I’m sure the doctors can fix him.” I said trying to comfort her.

“But what if they can’t? Then what?” she started crying and I felt really bad.

What if they can’t really do anything?

“I’ll be there for you, so you won’t be alone. Stary is my friend too, even though I’m as close to him as you, I’d still be losing a good friends.” I said wrapping my arms around her.

She turned in her chair and hugged me back crying into my chest. I ran my hoof through her hair trying to calm her down. A few seconds past and the doctor stepped in and informed us that visiting hours are over. Cloud left and went home, Silver wanted to stay with me for the night so we walked to my house.

Author's Note

So this one turned out better than the original. I really enjoyed writing this chapter even though I kind of had infected Stary Wubs. Also the infection reason is better than the last one. Hope you guys enjoyed Chapter 3 will hopefully come out on Wednesday 7. :)

Important Notice! Please read if you're still interested in the story.

Hey guys, have you missed me? No? Cool because I never really did much to start off anyway. Okay just wanted to let anyone who may still be interested in this story that I won't be continuing this story or at least this version. In my very long and very boring vacation from FimFiction I've had idea's come and go. When I first stared this thing I had so many ideas and stuff that I wanted to put in here. Now I have completely forgotten all of the ideas. I know, I'm stupid. You need to know that I'm sixteen years old and that I have ADHD and ADD which basically means I have the shortest attention span any average person can get. Now that I've made it clear that I'm pretty bad at finishing what I started we can move on. Just on a side note, yes I know that what I'm writing makes absolutely no sense what so ever; and by that I mean that if you haven't noticed from reading this I'm all over the place. I feel like taking a break from FimFiction was both a good and a bad thing and let me explain why. It's a good thing because when I first found this website I couldn't stop reading all of these stories because (to me at least) they were pretty good. It's a bad thing that I took a break because this website was one of the things I felt kept me interested in ponies. Yes I'm saying that my love for the show is slowly dying. If your worried don't be because once the show starts back up and I mean when the next season comes out I'll be my usually nerdy brony self. I don't mean to offend anyone and I'm not calling bronies nerds. Anyway I now live in California and the highschool I go to has this weird schedule and stuff and they never give any homework. What this means is that I have tons of time on my hands now and that I'm going to try to start writing again. Since I've been gone for a while FimFiction got themselves a new layout. I haven't seen much since I just got back so I'll need some time to get used to things. Now lets get back to what you guys really came here for. So I'm sure you're wondering what I meant by me not continuing this version of this story. I don't really have an idea for a new story and this story was one that I really wanted to make but I forgot what I was going to write after the second or third chapter. Needless to say I'm lost and I need help. Again I don't have a clear idea on how I'm going to remake this story but what I want from it is pretty clear in my mind. It will remain a zombie pony story and a Day-Z theme. With both these things in mind if you have any ideas on remaking this story so that it will be at least a thousand times better I would love to hear them. I could use some help on writing it as well so if you're up to it you can email me. Just pm me if you want to help with writing or editing or both as I'm pretty useless right now. If you have an idea you can write it in the comments. This is pretty much all I wanted to say so have a nice day or night or whenever you read this.
