The Unraveling

The camera turns towards two ponies wearing high-end equipment and nice looking suits that probably cost a lot of money. The lights flick on, the ponies start to talk between each other.

"Today on PonyNews11, we have a few interesting articles to talk about for the next hour," the first news anchorstallion starts.

"We have a building collapse, random attacks and a mare states she saw a 'zombie pony'," the second news anchor states in a creepy tone. "Today The Rich Building collapsed in Neigh York today, 29 and counting have been killed and counting and 57 have been injured, but sadly among the deceased was Mr. Filthy Rich, the owner of The Rich Building, is one of the deceased."

"Our hearts go out to the families to those of the deceased," said the first anchorcolt. "Also today, a few ponies have been killed via being eaten alive. One of the victims was one of the friends, or more like nephew, of Princess Celestia. Prince Blueblood was found dead in an alleyway behind some restaurants and clothing establishments. All over ponies have been found with eaten flesh. The murderer or murderers have not been confirmed nor caught, but the police and royal guard are on high alert."

"Today, a woman stated she found a 'zombie pony' oooh, spooky, but all jokes aside, she caught this video on her camcorder, but she does swear, so all you little fillies and colts leave the room," the anchormare. A projector comes down out of the ceiling. "I love having fun toys."

"So do I, but you know what I love more, all of our wonderful viewers out there," the anchorponies told the camera as they stepped away from the podium and let the videos play. You stood up and walked over to the anchorponies and held up my new camcorder that I had been saving up for forever.

"Hey, guys so I'm going out to celebrate my marriage tonight, do you maybe want to come with," you asked them as you recorded them.

"Yeah sure I'll come, but why are you filming us, Silver," the anchorstallion asked.

"I'm recording you because, uh, I got a new camera and want to see how good it is," you told them as you continued to film them.

"Yeah, sure I'll come to your party, where at," the anchormare asked.

"It's at the bar on sixth and main, but you two are back on," you told them.

"Thanks, come on Aura, we got a broadcast to finish," Royal told her. They got back to their broadcast after a short commercial break. "And we're back after a short commercial break, now that video, was it an alleged zombie pony or a pony on bath salts, go to our website to leave your view, and we'll see you tomorrow at 11:00, only on PonyNews11."

"Hurry up Talik, me and Cherry are ready to go," you yelled up to your roommate from college.

"I'm coming, hold on," Talik yelled down to you. For being different, he's rather funny. His jokes run from murder and rape jokes to the top of the line quality jokes. The only thing that makes him different, is his family. His family was strange, his father was a zebra and his mother was a pegasus, which made him, but other than that you've been friends longer than you could remember. You saw the striped pegasus walk down the stairs and fly past you and your wife. You followed your friend, who stopped on the sidewalk looking down the alleyway that separates your apartment block and the restaurant. You looked where he was looking and saw a mare and a stallion was going at it in the alleyway, and from the looks of it, they had been going at it for a while. "Hey, stick it to her bro."

"Sure thing dude," the stallion started to go faster, but before the show got too bad you continued on down the sidewalk towards the bar. Talik flew up to Cherry and you and walked the rest of the way with you. You met up with Aura and Royal inside, and from the looks of it, they had been there for a while. The two had a crowd of ponies around them as they hammered down shots. They were on their 20th shot. You watched as Royal fell out of his chair, but still got his drink down. Aura stood up and fainted next to Royal. You laughed at their drunken stupor but were on your way there.

After about 7 cups of Applejack Daniels, you started to feel your buzz, but you needed more beer to get fully drunk, and you were also trying to drink more than Talik, who had already had 12 cups, Cherry, on the other hoof, had 5 cups and passed out. You looked over to Royal and Aura to see that they had gotten into a booth and started to make out. Two other stallions were recording it on their IHays. You pointed this out to Talik and he laughed a hardy laugh, stood up and went over to the jukebox and put on a song. You waited for the record to load to listen to the song he had selected. He had choose Watching Dragons On Top Of The World.

You finally decided to head home when Royal and Aura started to have sex. You quickly awoke Cherry who had been asleep for about two hours now. Talik had officially beat you in your small drinking game, he had drunk 32 cups of Applejack Daniels and you only had 26. Talik said he was gonna stick around and drink some more. Cherry and you made your way back home slowly but surely, almost getting flattened by a speeding carriage, but you got home. You quickly made it to bed and past out, hoping your hangover isn't that bad in the morning.
