Megaville (Edited)

We managed to find a secured rooftop in a small city to call home for now.

"We just need to make the best of it." I said.

Later that day, I went on watch to see an armored Humvee drive around the corner.

"What was that, military?" Scootaloo asked.

"We should follow them. Sunset, Vinyl, and Scootaloo stay here and guard the camp." Applejack said.

We followed their tire tracks until we saw a massive city with walls 4 stories tall. Who knows how thick they are...

"Whoa... Those are big walls." Rainbow said in awe.

I turned to read a sign saying 'Megaville'.

"Looks like a quarantine zone." I said.

"How can you tell?" Applejack asked.

"Nothing's good like this these days, unless it was military property." I said.

As we got closer, I started to notice some things. One, the walls had remote turrets, two, the city was flooded with supplies, and third, there were no soldiers whatsoever. There were a few people though.

"Let's see if we-"

BANG!

My sentence was cut off by a gunshot from within the walls.

"What was that? Zombies?!" Pinkie asked.

Then another one came, then one more. We had to get closer, but I knew we would get shot like Robocop. [You know, the old one.]

"We need to head back. We'll see more later." Rainbow Dash said.

As we were leaving, a bullet JUST passed my leg.

"HANDS!" A voice boomed.

We showed our hands and stepped forward.

"Now, you drop your weapons! NOW!" The voice then commanded.

We dropped our guns and knives along with our holsters.

"What do you want from us?" I asked loud enough for them to hear.

"Your guns. Now, leave!" The voice said.

I managed to hide a knife and my mom's old Judge.

"Now what?" Fluttershy asked when we got back.

"We go to the far end of the city we found and hope they don't try to hunt us." I said.

"There's another place about 10 miles from here. I say it's worth the risk. It's better than military wannabes shooting at us with a Humvee." Sunset said.

"Alright then. Our goals are set, tomorrow, we pack up and leave the city after we search it for weapons." I said.

"What do you mean?" Scootaloo asked.

"They took most of our guns and knives. But they didn't get my gun." I said.

"Good thing we stayed here. Otherwise we ALL would've lost our weapons." Vinyl said.

As we were packing up, I decided to go on a run for some guns with Scootaloo.

"Where are we gonna find guns?" Scootaloo asked.

"Stores, bars, or small houses. There's always a handgun or two in case of break-ins." I said.

We searched nearly every store, bar, and house in a neighborhood. We managed to find 4 handguns and 2 shotguns along with 6 boxes of ammo. As we walked back, I saw a few zombies.

"Heads up." I said.

As they charged at us, I used the baseball bat I found at my house. Surely enough, it worked, and those zombies were goners.

"Well then, that was festive." Scootaloo said.

"Yeah, no kidding." I said.

As we walked back, I managed to find a few batteries for the flashlights.

"We could use more batteries." Scootaloo said.

I then saw an old Christmas tree set up inside a shop.

"Wow. That's a big one." I said.

I saw a small smirk on her face.

"Oh, yeah? You should see the one at the orpha-" She stopped herself immediately.

I knew she was going to say orphanage. I turned to her.

"Wait, you were an orphan?!" I asked.

"Yeah... I never knew my family since... they died. I spent my day after school in the orphanage..." She said.

"I'm sorry... Does Rainbow Dash know?" I asked.

"Yes. There was nothing you could have done. It just was my life back then. Come on, let's head back." She said.

We arrived back to the rooftop and gave the guns out.

"So which way?" Vinyl asked.

"There's a compass to the left of you, keep up the red arrow as close to the N as you can without us crashing." Sunset said.

We kept on driving until we saw a city with a sign saying 'Townsville'.

"The place could use some work..." I said to myself.

By the end of the day, we managed to build a wall out of wooden pallets around 3 buildings. It wasn't much, but it'll hold. As night fell, I saw a few survivors heading our way.

"Sunset, I saw survivors." I said.

I kept watching as they entered a building nearby. I leaned against the walls to listen.

"We should be careful. If they find us, they'll probably kill us or worse." I heard one voice said.

I think I should move in. But they could be armed, or they could be from Megaville. I listened some more.

"I think we should hold off here for a little bit. It could help us against them... mostly Bell." A different voice said.

That was it.

"You know Megaville?" I asked without entering.

I hear a person grab a gun.

"Are you friendly?" I hear a male ask.

"Yeah. I'm not with Megaville if that's what you mean." I say.

I see 2 people come out of the house.

"Good, I was ready to reload. I'm Dexter." He said.

"Alright Dexter, I'm Kyle. Is that your sister?" I asked.

"No, I'm Blossom." She said.

"Alright. What are you doing here?" I asked.

"Trying to escape Megaville. Of course, we see it won't work here." Dexter said.

"Yeah, we have a building near here if you want to stay." I said.

As we were heading back, I thought I could get some answers.

"So, who's in charge there?" I asked.

"Her name's Bell." Blossom said.

"So, should we prepare?" I asked.

"Yeah. Prepare for war once she finds us with your people..."
