//-------------------------------------------------------// When Equestria fell... -by xCoRrUpT-fLaMeSx- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 2 //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 2 Michael looked behind us and turned completely pale. "FUCK! THERES HUNDREDS!" He screams as he puts away his weapon. I took a quick look of my own. And yes, easily there was more than 300. "WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?!" He yells, once again almost making me trip. "Shut up, and calm down!" I reply. "We'll just run to ponyville and start up the shield!" I say again. At this point slowing down cause' of the distance we made between Us and Them. We start to walk but are still keeping are defensive stance. "Just calm down im sure the Princesses are working on it right now."  I say trying to calm my shaking friend. "W-what were those....Things?" He asks. Getting no response he just decides to call Pvt. Jacobs back at ponyville. "I'll radio the Pvt." He says, taking out his radio. I just walked away and stood on top of a hill. I looked at where Canterlot was, only to be greeted by explosions and flames erupting from Canterlot. I don't know how long i was standing there staring. "Whatcha looking at?" Michael comes by and asks, clueless of the chaos happening in front of him. "I didn't get ahold of Pvt." "Turn your head 90 degrees north." I say, Pointing towards Canterlot. I could tell he caught a glimpse of it because of how he looked as if he'd just seen a ghost. "Welp. There goes our hope..." He says sounding sarcastic. "We should get going. the suns going down." He explains to Diego. "Y-yea...lets go.." *** "Derek! Get your ass over here!" Pvt. Jacob yells trying to get Derek's attention. "ugh....What ya want Pipsqueak." Derek asked as he walked over to the giant screen Jacobs was standing at. "Dear Mother Of God..." He stares at the Video recording from one of the Video Cameras in Manehatten, seeing the chaos the creatures have made. "Get me Twilight now." He demands, Walking back over to where he originally was, rubbing his forehead. "Jesus christ..." He mutters to himself, still rubbing his migraine. "I gotta get Diego here immediately." He says pulling out his radio. Just as he was about to contact Diego, Pvt. Jacobs, and Twilight Appear through the door. "What do you need Derek?" Twilight asks, Confused as she see's Derek trembling. She walks over to her friend in curiosity and taps his shoulder with a hoof. "Derek? You alright?" She asks, Retracting her foreleg as he cocks his head over to her. "Look...." He says pointing out the window towards Canterlot. "I-i-its...Oh god.." He stutters. Twilight see's what Derek was pointing at and her blood ran cold. "Pvt. wait till Michael, and Diego get passed the wall and raise the shields...We don't wan't what happened to Canterlot happen to us." Derek says. "SPIKE!" Twilight screams for her assistant. He runs into the room and looks at twilight. "Send a letter to Celestia. We need to know if she's alright." An aura of purple grabs a quill and a piece of paper, and Floats into Spikes hands and he nods telling Twilight he's ready. "Dear Princess Celestia. We see the explosions in canterlot and we are concerned for your safety. Please confirm to us if you are okay." She finishes. Spike sends the letter to Celestia and asks if she needs anything else. Twilight shakes her head, and Spike leaves the room. A couple of minutes have passed and Spike runs into the room holding a letter. "Twilight! Celestia sent a letter back!" He yells while running towards Twilight. Twilight opens the letter only to be greeted by the stench of blood. She looks down at the letter and it has blood all over it, but has something written in the middle. It displays a bloody "HELP". *** "I dont remember Ponyville being this far..." Michael complains. "We don't have a lot of supplies at the moment either. We need to hurry up the pace." He says again, wiping the sweat of his forehead with the back of his hand. "Quiet down. Ponyville's coming up when we pass this corner." I said. Just like i said as soon as we passed the corner we were greeted by my EQUESTRIAN ARMY guards. "Sir!" The left one said, raising his hand into a salute. "Hurry and get in there, We're raising the shields." He said again. Michael, The two gaurds, and I, quickly made our way into Ponyville. "Sir. Canterlot, Manehatten, and part of the everfree are covered in these things." Pvt. Jacobs said running to their side. "They are making they're way towards the rest of Equestria!" He explained. We made our way to the EQUESTRIAN ARMY armoury, And once we got there, Michael, and Pvt. Jacobs have dispersed from me and are now either getting weapons, or talking to other soldiers on what to do. "I'd be surprised if we pull this one off." I Whisper to myself. I made my way farther into the armoury and is now in the HEAVY section. I looked around until i found the six weapons that were assigned for my team. Michael are medic, with his AK-101, and his sidearm ASTRA A-60, Derek are sniper,with his BARRET M95, and his sidearm Colt Anaconda, Viktor are heavy, with his Daewoo K3, and his sidearm Agram 2000, Ricky are engineer, with his 12 Gauge double barrel shotgun, and his sidearm FAMAS, Jordan are explosive specialist, with his M79 Grenade Launcher, and his Colt 1911, and Me, Diego the Captain, with my SCAR H, and my sidearm the MOSS BERG 590. I quickly took my weaponry and moved out to the armour section. Theres not a lot of things different about my armour and the rest of my teams armour. The only things different is that my armour's White, with blood red on the shoulders, also blood red on my Biceps. My armour also has a blade on the arm. I strapped on my armour and made my way to the Command Centre in twilights castle. When i arrived i decided to speak with Derek. I put him in second command, and i trust him the most because he's my younger brother. Anyways, I spoke to him for a bit while Twilight went to go get the rest of the main 6. After a while I went to lay down and rest at my house that the kindly townsfolk made for me, when Rainbow Dash came out of no where. "Hey Diego!" She said with her raspy voice, which i kinda think is cute. "Hey Dash." i replied. I truly didn't want to talk at the moment. "Why are you Evacuating Clouds Dale?" She asked. She knows i only Evacuate when its an emergency. "You didn't see Canterlot or the Video recording yet?" i said. "What about Cante-" She was cut off when she saw the ruins of Canterlot. "WHAT HAPPENED?!" she yelled. "Somethings...Changing ponies...Its reanimating them from the dead. They're eating innocents...Who they kill don't stay dead." I say looking away from Dash an into the distance... "Now its getting late...We'll speak tomorrow again about whats goin' on." I said before walking home. "Hey but wait! You cant Leave yet!" She yelled to me. "GOODNIGHT DASH!" I yelled back. //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3: Scavenging gone wrong //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3: Scavenging gone wrong It was a new day. Yea there's an Apocalypse going on, but still a good day. I awoke to the sound of knocking on my door. "Who is it!?" I yelled. "Michael! Get your fat ass out-a bed! We got scavenging to do!" He yelled back impatiently. I thought to myself for a quick minute then replied. "Why do we need to scavenge? and What is it we need to scavenge!?" I said as i opened the front door. "Food." He said again, growing very impatient. I told him i'd be just a sec and shut the door. I walked towards my room and put on my armour, I then walked to my closet and got my weaponry. "Took you long enough." Michael said as i opened the door for a second time. "Why do we need to even scavenge?" I asked. I didn't get a reply so I decided to ask later. The EA guards loward the shield so me and Michael could leave, and they shut it back up again. "GOOD LUCK!" One of them yelled before raising the shield again. About an hour has past and Michael, & Me are near ManeHatten. "Damn it's creepy out here..." Michael said, kinda stuttering. "I know right. But what did you expect. It's an apocalypse." I replied."Hey why do we need to scavenge? I thought we were good on supplies." I said again. "Pinkie." He replied back in a, dark, low voice. I chuckled and noticed a body up ahead. "Remember how to kill these things?" He asks me. "Yea." I said raising my gun. I walked towards the corpse and realized it was Princess Luna. Her head was torn off her body and was placed beside her body, her eyes were ripped out and her ribs were showing. Blood everywhere. "Fuck me..." I said covering my nose from the smell of the rotting princess. "Know who it is!?" Michael yelled. I vomited. "Holy shit that isn't pleasant." He says. We continued are walk and got to ManeHatten quite quickly. We split up and searched for a bit. We went back to are meeting point and got a lot of good supplies. Just as we were walking away one of those things jumped into Michael, knocking him down. I raised my weapon and fired at the creature. It fell limp on Michael. I helped him up and checked him. There was a bite mark on his neck. "Shit. I'm infected ain't I.." He said before more came. "Take this!" He said to me as he gave me a piece of paper. "Give it to AJ when you get back. I'll hold Em' off!" And he charged towards the horde pulling out both of his weapons firing into the zombie ant hill. I sprinted for it picking up some of Michaels things he found. I looked back to see an explosion and the things fly in every direction. More came...more and more and more. I knew he had sacrificed himself for me. I slowed down and took a breather when I got a far enough distance. Something fell out from between the paper. It was Michael's Dog Tags. "Oh god..." I thought to myself. An hour passed and I made it back to PonyVille. The EA guards noticed I was alone and they looked at each other with concern. When I got into PonyVille they raised the shield again, and I collapsed. //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 1: Prologue //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 1: Prologue It all started in ManeHatten. It was a peaceful day, Ponies trotting around buying their goods and such. And i was with Michael. We were talking about something and i wasn't paying attention so i didn't really listen to what he was saying. When he finished talking we turned a corner only to be greeted by 2 Mares running and screaming in horror as they ran the opposite direction, Yelling to every pony to run. All the others did in return is look at echother blankly, some chuckling, and some shrugging it off. "Whats their deal?" Michael asks. "Eh. i wouldn't worry about it, their proba-" I didn't get to finish my reply because i turned around and saw what they were running from...The Blood, The limbs of ponies, and the things flipped and such. "H-h-holy Shit..." I said again. Raising my 1911 pistol, and Getting into my usual defensive stance. And Michael did the same, That is until i told him to get every pony the hell out. He did as he was told and starting yelling at ponies to leave immediately. As he did so I started slowly walking into the madness...Blood starting soaking my boots. And i heard a voice behind me. "I ain't dyin in this damn horror scene." Michael said, almost getting his brains turned to mush by one of Diego's bullets. "Oh...geez im sorry." He said again. I only rolled my eyes and turned around continuing what i was doing before, but this time something seemed a little more creepy about the situation than before. It was quiet...to quiet. And i heard what seemed to be a moan. I turned to where i heard the disturbing, deformed sounding moan, And saw it. A stallion with has his face covered in blood, mostly around the mouth, He had flesh hanging off is face, And Bone showing. I was shocked, And by the looks of it. So was Michael. The thing started walking towards us. "FREEZE!" I yelled, Hoping to get the stallion to stop. It didn't. "STOP NOW OR I WILL SHOOT!" I yelled again. Still not stopping i fired a couple of rounds into his chest. He kept going. I fired my entire clip into him and still nothing. He still slowly made his way towards us, Slowly picking up speed. "What..The..Fuck.." I Muttered to myself. Then michael fired a round into the stallions head, leaving a brand new corpse on the ground. Just as i was about to say something, More came. Hundreds, Thousands! Me and Michael looked at each other and ran as fast as are legs could carry us to ponyville.
