Game Night II: Game Harder

The girls and Spike loaded up there games and joined the lobby that Spike had made for them. Twilight, Rarity, Pinkie and Fluttershy choose to be the ponies while Rainbow, Applejack and Spike choose the infected. They put on their headsets, each of them had their color scheme on it and they had their own cutiemarks on them, with the exception of Spike's. His had a green flame on the outer casing.

"So what map?"

Usually that's what this game boiled down to. Choosing a map takes forever when ponies outright refuse to play a map, so that's why games usually take forever to start and get going.

"How 'bout Swamp Fever?" Applejack said.

"Alright, unless anypony has any objections?" Spike looked around the table in case somepony didn't want to play the map that was chosen. It seems not even Rarity cared, unless she was trying very hard not to raise her hand because the map had mud in it. The thought of that made Spike stifle a chuckle.

"Alright then, I'm starting it."

Spike hit the start match button and waited for the game to load up.

When the game finished loading up and the game officially started.

Rarity was the female character, Chatter box, Fluttershy was the hoofball couch, Couch, Pinkie was the con-man, Bits Worth, and Twilight was the Southern pony, Red Aspen.

They all grabbed their first aid kits, primary's and jumped off the cargo train they started out on. They passed by the crystal recharge station and made their way into the shanty town where they heard growling.

"Careful girls, I hear a hunter." Twilight said through her voice chat.

"Oh my, I think it's behind the house over there girls!" Fluttershy exclaimed as she started hosing the side of the building with gunfire, making the infected scream in pain.

"Damn it, 'Shy saw me guys." Dash said while she ran and hide away somewhere else.

"Don't worry, I'll distracted them for you to try again." Spike said as he stumbled his way onto the roof of a house and shoot his smoker's tongue out and latched onto Rarity. "I got Rare's, go go go, pounce dash!"

"On it!" She half-yelled as she jumped onto Fluttershy making her shriek as she watched her pony get torn to shreds by Dashs' zombies' claws.

Twilight was firing at Spike and kept missing with her shotgun, as Pinkie ran over to shove Dash off of Fluttershy when she heard a cry of a charger stampeding towards her. Pinkie moved back and started spraying Applejack with bullets from her Uzi. Applejack died fairly quickly and Pinkie shoved and killed Dash as well before she could kill Fluttershy. Twilight had finally managed to shoot Spike and rescue Rarity, and healed her up after she had gotten strangled by the smoker's tongue.

"Okay, so we've used two first aids and haven't made it more than twenty-five percent of the way yet. Well, this is turning out good I can tell." Twilight said once again through her mic.

"Well we can thank Spike's little distraction for dashes little pounce. We just got lucky that Pinkie didn't charged as well, that and I'm happy there wasn't a - JOCKEY!" Just as Rarity said that, a jockey jumped onto Twilight's head and began pulling her away from the rest of her team.

"Ahahaha, I got you Twi! How's it feel to be ridden, huh!?" Dash yelled through her mic.

'Not as good as Spike, though' Thought Twilight. "Would someone shoot this thing before it humps my face to death!?" Twilight shouted to her other teammates.

"On it Twi!" Pinkie shouted back as she sprayed Twilight down with bullets, trying to get the jockey off of her. When she did Twilight was already at half health.

"Well that's nice, now I have to heal - Rarity, a little help here?"

"Sure thing darling - just watch my back." Rarity said as she healed up Twilight.

"Thanks, I owe you." Twilight said as she and the rest of the team moved into town finding Molotov's and pipebomb's a plenty.

"I found another first aid kit and a de-fib unit here." Twilight said grabbing the de-fib for herself, and Rarity picking up the extra first-aid kit.

"I've got the kit dear, now let's go and quickly before they re-spawn and make our day miserable again." Raity said as she moved outside the store they had walked into, only to walk into a puddle of corrosive spit. "Oh good heavens!" Rarity shrieked and jumped a little in her chair from the shock.

"Ahaha, got ya' good Rares!" Said Applejack as she cackled like mad in her seat at the sound of Rarity shrieking again when she tried going out the back way, only to run into Dash, who was a boomer. Rarity, in her surprise, simply shoot at it, coating herself and Pinkie in bile, which attracted a horde of zombies for them to fend off.

After they spent the next half a minute fighting off more zombies and killing both Applejack and Spike, who had come back as a Smoker yet again, they made their way all the way to the floating bridge and crossed it after another battle with a horde of zombies and a few more attacks from Spike and Co.

They had just started to trudge there way up the walkway when they hard the one thing they didn't want to hear coming.

"TANK!" Twilight shouted, as her and the other's scrambled to get away from the hulking beast of a zombie and avoid getting their faces rearranged. It took a lot of bullets, a lot of faces being punched in, and a lot of swearing from the four survivors. When all that was said and done, they were now down all of their first-aid kits save for the de-fib just incase one of them died and a bottle of pills that Fluttershy found; she always seemed to find those things.

Twilight and Co. made their way to the first safe house, only getting sidetracked slightly from the others, and made it to the next map where they switched sides and the other got a chance to try and get to the safe house.

This is how the game pretty much went on for the next hour or so; the girls jumping each other, making it to the end, or not making it to the end, as it tended to happen sometimes.

By the end of the game both teams were very close in regards to points, but Twilight's team won in the end.

"Yes! Zombies ain't got nothin' on this!" Twilight exclaimed as she stood up and struck a very sexy pose, that when Spike looked up and saw her he swallowed and nearly choked on his spit.

"Something the matter Spike?" Twilight asked as she sat back down, giggling at the drakes expense.

'I'm so going to get you back for that.' Thought Spike as he finally regained his composure.

Rarity let out a yawn, which caused Pinkie and then everypony else in the room to yawn.

Twilight looked at the clock and saw that it read ten o'clock p.m.

"Wow, it's really getting late girls."

"Oh my, is it really," A yawn cut off Rarity mid-sentence. "oh my goodness, terribly sorry, I'm only just realizing just how tired I am. I think I might call it a night girls. I don't believe that I will be opening tomorrow, at all."

"Aaaaaaahhhhaaahhh," Yawned out Applejack as she stretched and popped a few joints, relieving her back from the position it's been in for well over the past hour or so. "I'm with Rarity on this one, I'm beat."

"Yeah, I have to feed Gummy before it's morning again, poor little guys been back home, alone for the whole night, he must miss me." Pinkie said standing up.

"Oh, I hope angel hasn't gotten lonely too," Fluttershy said before she too stood up and stretched.

"Okay, well thanks for coming by tonight girls."

"Not a problem, darling, just uhh, don't tell anypony that I actually play these kinds of games. I have an image to maintain after all."

"Ahh, don't worry yur' pretty little head there Rares', nopony's gonna go tellin' everypony that you like these here games." Applejack said as she put an arm over Rarity's shoulder, making said unicorn to roll her eyes at her.

Once everypony had gotten up and turned off their computers, Twilight poofed them and the table and chairs away again until next time.

"Bye everypony, goodnight." Twilight called out to her departing friends, minus Dash, as she stayed behind and was lounging on the couch with her feet propped up on the armrest.

Spike and twilight looked at each other then back to Dash's laying form before they began creeping up on her. They were within a few feet of Dash before she popped an eye open and saw both Twilight and Spike hovering just above her head.

"Uhhh, what are you guys doing?" Dash asked with a nervous grin.

"Oh nothing," Twilight said wriggling her fingers.

Dash's eyes widen in remembrance to yesterday.

"No...no, stay back you two, I remember what you did last night, it ain't happening again." Dash said with a serious expression.

Spike and Twilight looked at each other again before Twilight spoke again.

"Yeeeeeaaaaahhhh, no."

And then Twilight and Spike tackle Dash onto the couch and begin the second night of tickle torture.

~~~~

"You guys...suck." Dash said in between breaths as she tried to calm herself down from her scuffle with her two herdmates.

Spike stood back up from his spot on the ground. "You didn't say anything while we were tickling you."

"Well, you were busy making be laugh, I couldn't say anything."

"Hmmm, too bad I was focusing on making you laugh instead of," Spike leaned over and brought Twilight close enough to nibble lightly on her ear, making her shiver. "making you feel good. Don't think that I'm not going to get back at you two for teasing me so much tonight."

Dash swallowed hard as she thought of what was to come, no pun intended.
