The Zombie War (Original)

"...He's worse than Autumn was!" Sugarcoat said.

I felt a blow land on my shoulder. I fell to the ground and Jet Set was behind her. They kept launching blows, until I grabbed a fist and twisted it almost 360 degrees.

"ARGGH! Mother- Ah!" Sugarcoat screamed as she held her right fist, now twisted.

I stood up and reached in the back of my shirt.

It's time.

I pulled out the knife and they immediately stepped back.

"Whoa, there, Kyle. You don't want to do this..." Jet Set said.

They thought it was for them...

I hesitated for a second. I liked them this way, with the tables turned. Now they were afraid of me...

I tossed the knife soon after.

"Just do it..." I begged as I took a seat near the end of the roof.

"Do... do what?" Sugarcoat asked in a tone I never heard before.

Worry.

"Do what Cinch wants you to do..." I said, without turning back.

I waited for what I hoped to be the end. I waited for my father's face to shine in front of me.

Instead, I heard the door open and a voice getting quieter.

"CINCH! CInch..."

"KYLE! WAKE UP!" I heard Scootaloo say.

With that, I was slapped back into reality. I looked at Scootaloo, and I was still gasping for air.

"I'm fine. It was just a bad dream, that's all." I said.

"Kyle, you didn't wake up for half an hour..." Scootaloo said.

What?

"Well, sorry I scared you, I just..." I started.

"You had the dream again, didn't you?" Scootaloo asked.

I let out a sigh.

"...Yeah." I said.

Scootaloo sighed and put her hand in mine.

"I know what they did. Sugarcoat told me when I told her that I know you. Kyle, you have to forgive them. I know it sounds hard, but sooner or later, you all will be trapped together. If you don't trust one another, that's bound to go wrong." Scootaloo said.

I drank in Scootaloo's words until I heard a voice call out from downstairs.

"COME ON! IT'S TIME TO GO!" Rainbow cried.

We got up and went down.

"I hear you. Before we go, there's something I have to do." I said.

"What is it?" Rainbow asked.

I didn't want to tell her yet.

"I'll tell you when I'm done." I said.

"Okay..." Rainbow said.

"Scoot, you coming?" I asked.

"Yeah, I'll be right there." Scootaloo said.

I started heading toward where I wanted to go: The tank site.

Where Daisuke was.

I grabbed 2 trash bags and put one on his head, and one on his feet. Scootaloo came up and grabbed some duct tape. She handed it to me and I put it on the bag.

"I'm sorry, Scoot. He was one of the greatest people I've ever met in a long time..." I said as I started to carry him.

We went inside the walls and to our graveyard where I grabbed a shovel.

"Wait..." Scootaloo said.

She took the shovel.

"How about Shining and Fluffy Heart?" She asked.

"Yeah, I'll get them." I said.

I headed out to find their corpses.

Only they found me.

I took out Scootaloo's machete and saw that Shining was still a Runner. He charged at me and I was ready to strike.

But a sword went through him first.

The body fell and I saw Twilight with tears in her eyes. I saw that she took out Gold Lily as well.

"I'm sorry... he was a good man. He would've been an even better father." I said as I grabbed two more trash bags.

"This was his daughter...?" Twilight asked.

"Yeah. He had her not too long before we were attacked." I said as I found a trash bag for Fluffy Heart.

"I... I always felt like he was dead..." Twilight said as she grabbed the body.

"Need help?" I asked as I grabbed an end of the body.

We went to the graveyard when I saw Scootaloo stick a grave where she buried Daisuke.

"Can you give me a minute?" I asked.

Twilight nodded and she started burying Shining. I went to Scootaloo, who was paying her respects.

"You said he was like a father to you once. Did you really mean that?" She asked.

"Of course. My real father died a while ago. A year before the dead started to come back." I said.

"I'm sorry." Scootaloo said.

"I'm sorry, too." I said.

We stayed until Rainbow came up.

"Guys, we can't wait much-" She came up and saw the graves.

We were silent until Scootaloo got up.

"I think I'm good. You?" She asked me.

"Yeah, there's just... one more thing I got to do alone." I said.

I went to an empty area near the walls. I started making another grave for someone else. I took out a knife and carved a name with it.

FLUTTERSHY

I stuck it in the ground and placed the knife there.

The knife I begged Sugarcoat and Jet Set to kill me with.

I knelt down and put one hand on the grave. I felt my eyes start to water. A tear started falling down my eyes and I wiped it away.

We were set up near the gates.

"Where is he?" Sugarcoat asked.

"He's doing something alone." I said.

"What's he doing?" Firefly asked.

"I have no idea." Rainbow said, walking up next to her.

"You don't think he's burying everyone else, don't you?" Rin asked.

"He could be. A lot of good people died here. Daisuke, Big Mac, Fluttershy, Pinkie, Riku, Frank..." Sunset started.

"I'm sorry for your losses." Sombra said.

I was silent after Sunset brought up my parents.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have-" Sunset was interrupted by Kyle walking back down with my machete.

"We should get going." Sugarcoat said.

"I don't think that'll fit all of us." Johnny said.

"Yeah, we have more cars with us. We all drive separate, we wanted to bring everyone back home." Luna said.

I woke up on Scootaloo's shoulder inside the R.V. I looked around as saw Rainbow and Firefly asleep on the bed together. I let out a chuckle and saw that we were stopped. I got up and saw that we were at large gates.

I looked on as the others walked out of the RV. I went to wake up Scootaloo, but she was already awake.

"You ready?" She asked me.

I took her hand.

"I was always ready." I said to her.

We walked out of the R.V and we saw that the gates started to open.

Finally, we were home.
