Chapters Chapter 0: Intro
Let me tell you a story that has no connection to the lightning storm that is happening. You believe me right? Right? Yeah, you better. Sit down, grab a seat, and let me tell you how “Horror is Magic”! *lightning strike* HAHAHA!
I was annoying bronies one day while a lightning storm was occurring and I had some games out. Lightning struck my laptop… I’m not exactly sure why I was on the roof though… But that’s not the point. It opened up a portal of some kind, and it sucked up the games that I had: Dead Space 2, Resident Evil 2, Silent Hill 2, wow that’s a lot of 2’s. Back to the subject, I saw visions in the portal. Terrible visions of terrible things happening. The terror was terribly terrible. I was so horrified I did the only rational thing, write about it. So get ready for: Horror is Magic! *another lightning strike*
Chapter 1: Resident Equestria
Ever hear the MLP Theme song sung by the guy who says “Resident Evil”? No? Well it’s scary.
Pinkie, Twilight, and Spike just finished rearranging Twilight’s library for the 400th time.
Pinkie: *staring at the sky* Our theme song seems off today…
TS: I don’t know what you’re talking about, but today does seem a little strange. Aside from you I haven’t seen anypony around.
Pinkie: Maybe they’re playing Hide and Seek!
TS: Pinkie, be serious, they could be in trouble!
Pinkie: Right, serious! *tries to make serious face*
TS: *sigh* Just forget it.
Pinkie: Right, forget. *tries to forget* 1... 2... 3... Poof!
TS: Oh look! There’s Lyra, she can give us some answers.
Pinkie suddenly puts on a very unsettling face.
Pinkie: Right, answers! *she takes out a spiked bat*
TS: I don’t think that will be necessary…
Pinkie: Shows what you know, everything is necessary… especially bats.
TS: Where did you get that bat anyway?
Pinkie: I have bats stored all over ponyville in case of a bat emergency!
TS: Okay, just be careful with that thing.
Pinkie starts juggling the spiked bat.
Pinkie: Careful is my middle name!
They walk up to Lyra, who is stumbling around rather awkwardly.
TS: Are you okay? You look a bit green… more than usual I mean.
Pinkie: I think she’s a zombie!
TS: Don’t be silly Pinkie, she’s not a zom-
Lyra’s arm falls off and she turns around, showing her bloody face. She grabs Twilight and jerks her head back, preparing to bite.
Pinkie: ZOMBIEEEE!
Pinkie hits Lyra with the bat and Lyra’s head bursts like a melon, her body crumples to the floor like a puppet.
TS: *eye twitch* Okay… keep calm Twilight… Pinkie didn’t just kill Lyra…
Pinkie: *covered in blood* I told you we needed the bat!
TS: But- but you just killed Lyra!
Pinkie: She was a zombie anyway, she doesn’t care.
TS: I- I don’t know what to say about that…
Pinkie: Can you say it to them?
Pinkie points to a shambling herd of zom-ponies approaching the two.
TS: We should get back to the library….
Pinkie: Why? This is a lot of fun!
TS: Pinkie…
Pinkie crosses her hooves and pouts.
Pinkie: Fine.
They run back into the library as fast as they can. Pinkie’s bat became stuck in a zom-pony’s brain on the way.
Spike: Back so soon Twilight? What’s wrong?
TS: *hyperventilating* Zombies! Outside! Lyra! Bat! IT’S EVERYWHERE!
Spike: What?
TS boards up the door with boards that happened to be sitting around. The zombies gather at the door start bashing on it.
Spike: Twilight, calm down. What’s that noise?
TS: *calms down* There are zombies outside, and they want to EAT US!
Spike: Well! Look who’s right this time! It’s me! Spike! Master of Prediction!
TS: Spike, this is serious! Everypony in town is infected!
Spike: Well, that would explain why Derpy crashed through our wall…
Derpy: Nope! I’m not a zombie! I just wanted to say hi! Sorry about the wall.
TS: Okay, we need to think of a plan…
Pinkie: Can we throw a party?
TS: No, we can’t throw a party.
Pinkie: Why not? I’ll get some cupcakes! Then everypony can have a big party! The zombies too!
Pinkie hops through the hole Derpy made in the wall and evades the zombies.
Spike: Will she be okay? She looked a bit… crazy.
TS: I don’t know Spike, but I hope so.
Chapter 2: You scream, I scream, the zombies don’t, but they should.
Pinkie goes straight to Sugar Cube Corner, determined to have a party. She quickly locks the door, to prevent uninvited guests. She spots an ice cream server and loses self control. She begins to eat ice cream right out of the server.
Pinkie: *muffled* Disth is great! *swallows ice cream* All these sweets! I’ll throw a great party!
Pinkie sets out a giant party table full of sweets of all kinds. But nobody comes. She waits and waits, but nobody arrives.
Pinkie looks distressed.
Pinkie: *tearing up* Nobody came to my party? Is it because they are zombies? Are they still my friends if they are zombies?
To test out this theory, Pinkie lets a zombie in, Bon Bon. Bon Bon decides that Pinkie would make a good snack and bites her hoof. Pinkie quickly relinquishes Bon Bon’s skull with another bat from her hidden bat collection.
Pinkie: She bit me… is nobody my friend now? Am I… Alone?
Pinkie’s hair turns flat as she looks at her infected hoof, and then out the window.
Pinkie: *suddenly cracks a huge smile* I’ll MAKE them my friends! I’ll MAKE them happy! I’ll cure them all!
Pinkie finds herself scribbling “Smile Smile Smile” on every wall, Pinkie then opens up a closet full of candy making tools and knives.
Pinkie: Time for a party! *maniacal cackling*
Zombies are gathering at the door, hungry for pony flesh. Loud whirring sounds come from inside.
Pinkie: She bit my hoof… I don’t need it.
Pinkie uses a buzz saw to cut her hoof off, and she replaces it with a giant gumdrop.
Pinkie: It didn’t even hurt! Right hoof? *holds her hoof stuffed with cotton candy up to her head* *bad ventriloquism* Right Pinkie!
Pinkie opens a cabinet of duct tape and starts getting to work.
Pinkie: *singing*
These zombies are all frowning,
Because they took their final breath,
But they should have no fear,
Because I’m the angel of death,
I’ll free them from their frowns today,
And then we’ll have a big par-tay!
So Smile, Smile, Smile!
Because this-is-the-daaaaaaay!
Horray!
Soon, the zombies begin to punch holes in the door. Little do they know that Pinkie has just finished her party planning.
Pinkie: *throws knives through the door* ARE YOU READY TO PARTY ZOMBIES?
Zombies: Grasggsghhhhhhhhhhh…..
Pinkie: *takes out makeshift swords made out of panhandles and knives* THEN LET’S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!
Pinkie: *slashing through zombies* WHAT’S WRONG EVERYPONY?! WE ARE HAVING A PARTY! LAUGH! HAHA!
Her swords break after a few swings and she takes out knives attached to oven mitts.
Pinkie: *slashing* The party’s… not over yet…
Pinkie dismembers over 50 zombies before fatigue finally sets in. Her sugar rush has ended. Exhausted, she faces the sun and she closes her eyes.
Pinkie: I’m… tired… zombies… you can party now… but don’t forget the dessert… I’ve prepared a special treat for you… *Pinkie lights a makeshift grenade full of sugar* It’s a real… blast… Smile… Smile…….. Smile……. Ha!
The grenade bursts in a sugary explosion, crystallizing everything within 100 meters. Pinkie lies in the center, frozen in sugar, smiling.
Chapter 3: Of Muffins and Moon
Meanwhile, Twilight’s barricade is breaking down, leaving Derpy, Spike, and Twilight desperate for help.
Spike: Oh… I wish I could have at least said goodbye to Rarity…
TS: Snap out of it Spike! Nobody’s going to die today, we’ll find a way out!
Derpy: We should give them muffins!
The zombies break through the barricade and swarm the downstairs.
TS: Think Twilight, think!
Derpy: *wearing bucket as a helmet* I’ll save us! IN THE NAME OF MUFFINS! *trips down the stairs* I wonder if I taste like muffin….
While the zombies eat Derpy, Twilight gets an idea.
TS: I’ve got it! *takes out pen* “Dear Princess Celestia, Zombies have attacked Ponyville *the zombies start up the stairs* Please send us away from here *they almost reach Twilight* ANYWHERE!”
She shoves the note in Spike’s face and he sends it with much haste.
They back into a corner, the zombies grabbing for them, and it looks like the end. However, before they can get a pony-brain dinner, a magic force takes hold of Twilight and Spike. The two get teleported away… to the moon. What happened to them, you ask? Well, I don’t think ponies can breath in space.
