The Zombie War (Original)

I had nothing. No-one as a friend, just insults. But then someone finally looked my way; her name was Hatsune Miku. She accepted me as a friend and equal. But once she looked at Len, Rin lost it.

She ordered her death the day after. Once she died, I was alone again...

Then, her rule was ended by a city of survivors and a Resistance inside. She was dead and we were happy. But I was on a run to Sanctuary, and I saw her walk out. I plan to follow them and kill her.

I saw as Scootaloo and Rin walked out the gates.

"Don't worry, Kyle. I know Scootaloo. She's not our birth child, but she has her mother's courage." Riku said.

"I know. It's just... I don't trust Rin. Do you?" I asked.

"Not as much as she does." Riku said.

"Yeah. I think she has potential. She was a leader of a Kingdom. If we can't use that-"

"Why do you trust everyone?" Riku asked me.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"When Rainbow left, Scootaloo shut down. No-one talked to her but you and three other people. So why did you talk to her that day?" Riku asked.

"Because I was able to relate to her. Back when I was at Crystal Prep, I was treated like crap all the time. You see, everyone there had something. Something that made them special, something that defined them. Me? I lost what defined me a long time ago. My dad, dead. My home, gone. I was nobody. But at CHS, I saw how she was treated. It was like she was invisible. If that's how nobody's were treated there, I wish I was there a long time ago." I said.

"Wow. You are really good at monolouging." Riku said.

"I know." I said.

I was with Scootaloo and the others looking for Kyle's sister.

"The local farms from here are Greenwood Farm and St. John Dairy. We should check St. John's first. It has a big field and an electric fence. If anyone has a camp, it's there." Daisuke said.

"I've seen the place before. It's gone." I said.

"So if anyone's set up here, it would be-"

I tried to raise Scootaloo, but all I got was static. I tried raising Daisuke, nothing. I started to worry after Rin didn't pick up.

"What if something happened?" Riku asked me.

"Don't worry. We'll send people out, we'll find her." I said.

Before I could say anything, a loud explosion was heard. I ran out and saw people- The Kingdom's people- with their guns raised and Shining, Daisuke, Rin, and Scootaloo hostage.

"KYLE! Come down here. We need to have a talk." A voice said.

I ran down and saw a person on top of a tank who looked like...

"Who are you?" I asked.

"My name is Yowane Haku, the leader of The Kingdom."

"What do you want with us?" I asked.

"Her." Yowane pointed at Rin with her gun.

"And if I say no?" I asked.

"Then they die." Yowane pointed at Daisuke and Scootaloo.

"How do I know you won't kill them anyway?" I asked.

"Why will I? Killing innocent people? That's low even for me." Yowane said.

"Kyle, do it. Trade me for them. Save your family." Rin said to me.

"Kyle, don't do it! She'll kill us anyway. Save Rin!" Scootaloo said.

"Kyle, Riku, I'm sorry." Daisuke said.

Then came the most amazing and heroic thing he's ever done. He got up and kicked a guard in the face, grabbed his gun, and blasted Yowane in the shoulder. But he was blasted by a still conscious Yowane.

"NOOO!" Scootaloo screamed.

"Now, choose. Rin or Scootaloo?" Yowane said.

Before I said a word, I heard a gunshot in the crowd. I turned around and saw Riku with tears streaming down her face.

Before I could stop her, the tank came driving in and the walls came crumbling.

"RUN!" I said.

We all ran for the nearest building and opened fire. More vehicles came charging in from the walls. We were watching as more people came and destroyed the walls.

But that wasn't all they had in mind.

5 buses came in from behind and drifts around and opens. Over 50 Walkers and 20 Runners came out. We've dealt with bigger hordes before, but with our walls up to keep the rest out. We found that the Runners could let out a type of pheromone that just attracts more when something big comes their way. With this many around us, we knew more would come from further away.

Scootaloo.

I was about to run out when Rin came in.

"Where is she?" I asked.

"Yowane took her. I tried to get her, but I was attacked." Rin said.

"Which way?" I asked.

"You're not going alone." Rainbow said behind me.

"Alright. She went that way." Rin said.

We ran towards the tank and tried to find Shining. We found some rope on the ground and a gun from Daisuke's corpse. I took a moment and looked at him.

"Kyle, I'm sorry..." Rainbow said.

"He was like a father to me. I hope Scootaloo's alive. Let's go." I said.

We went to where Yowane took Scootaloo. We were confronted by Shining and Cadence with Gold Lily.

"Oh, thank God. I thought you guys were guards." Shining said.

"Where's Scootaloo?" I asked him.

"I don't know." Cadence said.

"There's a building up that way, an office building. We've secured it." I said.

"Okay. We'll see you there." Shining said.

We ran to find Yowane, but we saw Scootaloo's machete, it was there sheath and all. But something was wrong, it was covered in blood. We saw a trail and followed it. We ran to a room and saw a body with its head partially decapitated. I saw the hoodie- Scootaloo's hoodie.

The look on Rainbow's face said it all. She started breaking down at the sight. I saw a Walker and fired a shot, then another, then another. I kept shooting until Rainbow grabbed me from behind and I broke down.

"We gotta go. We need to get the others." Rainbow said to me.

We ran to the building and had a close encounter with a very familiar Runner. The corpse had bright purple hair, its face covered on blood, and a deep bite on the side of its arm.

Maud.

I stabbed it in the eye and looked. She'd only been here for a week and a half... But we saw more. Frank, Big Mac, and Keito were ready to charge at us.

"Keito..." Rainbow said.

"Rainbow... I'm sorry." I said.

"No, I'M sorry. I know her, that girl. When her friend liked Len, I was power crazy. I made him kill her." Rin said.

Then, Shining ran out with a small Runner eating his neck. He died a few seconds later and the small Runner looked at me.

It was Fluffy Heart.

I was about to shoot it, but then an arrow hit it.

"We need to leave." Sunset said behind us.

I turned around and saw Sunset with her hair messed up, her jacket torn, and her arm bandaged.

"She's right. The others are either gone or dead." Rainbow said.

"Let's go." I said with my voice cracking.

We took an armored car and drove out the wrecked gates. I told Sunset to stop so I could change the sign.

It's been a while, but I found it. I saw the smoke and read the sign.

NO SANCTUARY

I took off my hood and looked around more.

"Adagio!" My sister called.

"What, Sonata?" I asked her.

"It's gone, but those people we saw might not be. Come on." Sonata said.

"Sonata, he's not here. Let's head back." I said.

Sonata sighed and pulled out her C.B.

"Cole, we're heading back. Tell Ali to get ready to open the gates." Sonata ordered.

"Sure thing. And Starswirl's doing fine." Cole said.
