It was dawn.

Waiting were dozens of Peashooters along with some Kernel Pults, Cabbage Pults, and Bloomerangs. All of them tensed up. It was a custom for the zombies to attack in the morning, and so before the sun even rose, Fluttershy had replanted these plants to prepare for a imminent zombie invasion. Twilight was meanwhile examining each plant type in full details.

"So what is this plant again?" Twilight said as she pointed to the Sunflower plant. Sunflower kept moving to the so called 'invisible beat from the earth'. The plant smiled before producing another pocket of sun, 50 in total.

"It's called the Sunflower plant, capable of producing a small amount of sun which could be used to plant more plants. Essentially it's the factory of the plant army and while it can't attack, its very important to keep the Sunflower going." Fluttershy said, a bit more confident in herself. Peashooter nodded along with the other Sunflowers.

"But how is that possible? That's what I'm trying to ask. How is it possible for them to produce miniature suns!?" Twilight said. Twilight was fixing a device of some sort in front of her, a communicator device. "Now let's see if this works." Twilight said as she connected the communicator device to a helmet and placed it on the leader of the Peashooters.

(Minus of course the barrel)

"Can you speak right now?" Twilight asked the Peashooter. Peashooter nodded.

"Yeah I think I can right no-" Peashooter said, before stunning himself at how he could hear his own voice in this Equestrian language instead of his native one. "Wow....that's awesome...." The Peashooter said.

"So it worked! We should begin to add this device to other plants to improve our force!" Rainbow Dash said, who was previously barely awake before the success woke her up. Twilight rolled her eyes but smiled.

"Well that and to find out more about the Peashooters and the other species. Now speak to us Peashooter, ya know it is kind of getting boring to call you Peashooter, hmm.....what should we call you?" Twilight asked the Peashooter. Peashooter thought for a moment.

"How about Majors? He is in fact the leader of his species and the first deployed. Plus that helmet looks like a war time one so why not call him Majors?" Applejack asked. Peashooter, now known as Majors, nodded.

"I can live with that." Majors said. "Anyways it's time to explain some things about us and a company known as Bloom and Doom." Peashooter said as he began to explain to Twilight and the rest of the Mane 6 his origins.

"Bloom and Doom was a company that created various mutant plants. At that time there were no offensive plants, not even defensive types, only ones designed to either make people happy or for some daily use. The first was a plant species known as Marigold. It was a coin that produced coins-"

"What....plants can produce coins?!" Rarity said in shock, along with the rest. Peashooter nodded.

"Yeah, they can produce coins. Usually they produce silver coins, sometimes even gold coins, which was a rare occurrence. They generated a minimum of $10 per day, and I believe they do it by producing silver in their cells and then it unifies into this one coin. Those were our first. Now if you're going to ask how they're primal seeds, you have to just wait." Peashooter said, before Twilight or the rest could begin to pound him with so many questions.

"Alright, everything was going pretty well until a guy named of Edgar came in. He would later get fired from the company as he created illegal plants or created unoriginal plants. He would become known as Dr. Zomboss, who is responsible for all of this madness."

"So where do you come from in this story?" Pinkie Pie asked. Peashooter frowned at her.

"Well soon enough, Edgar was back and was storming the whole place down, and he basically burned down the whole place down. But then a chain reaction occurred which destroyed most of his zombie forces there, but by then he was already out conquering the rest of the world. What had blew up was a secret facility with a new type of plant under heavy inspection. Tiny little seedlings that looked very strange but would soon protect the world with all of what they got." Peashooter said, gazing into the beyond.

"You?" Fluttershy asked, knowing that was the answer. Peashooter nodded.

"My owner, Crazy Dave, who was just Dave then, searched through the place looking for any survivors. Most of them were already dead if not they were captured, but he did find us. For a few years in hiding he helped us grow and he trained us. By us I mean me, Sunflower, Wall Nut, Cherry Bomb, and Potato Mine. He eventually was able to produce a more greater variety of us which really helped in the long run. And from that moment we would begin our careers of stopping the zombies from killing any one else." Peashooter said. "And we'll be doing the same to your world."

"So how does this show how Sunflowers can produce....sun?" Twilight asked. Peashooter gestured a Sunflower to come next to him.

"Okay so you see these yellow petals. Well the company that originally housed us predicted - since we were just little Peashooters and Sunflowers, and other little versions of who we are - that these yellow petals had a ability to absorb and trap the most sunlight. When she glows, that's her concentrating solar energy into one spot to produce a miniature sun. They predicted that if enough sun was to be concentrated in a seed pocket, it would instantly produce the plant. Scientists predicted that we could potentially live to up to 50 years with proper supply of sun or by a continual recollecting and replanting method, which most follow. We have yet to see any species properly follow the life cycle." Peashooter said. Sunflower nodded.

"That's right." Sunflower said as she picked up a pair of sunglasses with a mic with this plant translator activated. "There are some plants like Repeater and Twin Sunflower who are more better than us, but they required double the sun to plant, sometimes a bit more even." Sunflower said. Twilight after noting down everything, nodded.

"Okay, I think that's enough for now. Let's go back to the battlefield....." Twilight said before the head of the Cabbage Pults came to Peashooter. He whispered something to the Peashooter, which made Peashooter's face look incredulous.

"W-what?" Peashooter asked. Cabbage Pult nodded, confirming what he said. Peashooter did a face-leaf. As Cabbage Pult left, Peashooter gave the news.

"Well....it seems we could leave for the Bad Lands with no problem, cause it seems that the zombies.....they ain't attacking today." Peashooter said. Sunflower widened her eyes.

"T-that's impossible! The zombies always attacked us, whether they were ready or not. Does the doctor have something up his sleeves, or....." The answer hit both of them at the same time. Peashooter began packing up all of his materials.

"They're saving up their army for a massive invasion, just like the first time the zombie war happened. Twilight, we gotta leave now for those extra plants, before the zombies plow through where ever their plan of attack is." Peashooter said before landing on the ground from the table. Twilight nodded as they began to pack up. She bumped into Starlight who was passing by who was checking the whole mess.

"What in Equestria happened here?" Starlight yelled as she saw everything on the floor, as if they were in such a rush that not even Twilight had time to organize things. Twilight just stared at her, her eyes twitching.

"Where in Equestria were you in!?" Peashooter exclaimed. Starlight become silent as she noticed the Peashooter, a strange plant, had just spoken. She recovered.

"Oh I was at Trixie's place, ya know, travelling around the world to complete my friendship mission..." Starlight said. "But what actually happened here?" Starlight said. Twilight gave her a rough summary of what happened. Starlight was silent for a good five minutes after.

"T-that.....actually...."

"It did." Twilight said. "We're going to leave for the Bad Lands." Twilight said as she prepared her things. Starlight raised her eyebrow.

"So soon? Aren't you like worried that they might just attack you out in the open with no type of aid from the plants?" Starlight asked. Twilight nodded as she grabbed her things.

"Yes. I'm worried but we have no choice. The zombies are saving up their army and increasing its size, so we need to find some of those missing plants now!" Twilight said. She glanced at her student. "You're going to come with us, right?"

"Shouldn't I stay to defend this place in case they attack here?" Starlight asked, not really wanting to become part of a possible next meal for the zombies. But then yet again she would be part of another possible battle if she stayed here.

"No. We already got that covered." Peashooter said. Starlight after thinking about it and comparing these two alternatives, nodded.

"Well I guess it wouldn't hurt to come right?" Starlight said aloud. Twilight smiled.

"Alright! Let's go Starlight!" Twilight said as she and the rest headed for the train station which would leave them to the closest place to the Bad Lands. A figure followed them with his binoculars.

"They're moving sir." Commander Zombie said through radio. "All-Star move out."

A red figure crept close to the Commander. He sneakingly swept past the plant defense, heading to the place where they found the huge stash of metal buckets. He and the other Bucket Zombies started to search.

"A screen door? That could be useful." All-Star said as he handing it to a basic zombie. "Plant Pot? Better take it so that they can't use it if we were to attack on a roof." All-Star said as he handed it to another basic zombie who placed it on his head. All-Star face-palmed. "We'll dispose it of soon so don't put it on your head." All-Star said, before lunging at the zombie as the basic zombie was starting to drop the pot. All-Star managed to just barely save it. "Are you insane or what?! The sound will alert of our presence!" All-Star yelled softly. The zombie nodded and just carried it with him. "Take this shovel too. We might need this to disrupt their line of defense later." All-Star said as he handed the zombie the shovel. After taking as much of their things they could carry, they left.

"We're coming back." All-Star said through the radio. The commander did a nod.

"Good job men. You can go home now." The commander said through the radio, before returning to a military device which was recording every single move a specific pony was doing. "I got something....royal to deal with." The commander said as he motioned the tiny robot bug to follow the solar princess. He redirected his radio signal to Dr. Edgar Zomboss's coordinates. "Sir, do you receive my message?" The commander asked. On the other side of the line, Dr. Zomboss after setting down his wrench, nodded.

"I do receive your message Rommel. So what's the issue present?" Dr. Zomboss said. James who was working with Dr. Zomboss laid down his mechanical tools to hear about what Commander Rommel said. Rommel gave a grin.

"I have two news. One is not good but not really bad either, and the other is not bad but not good either." The commander said. Dr. Zomboss was confused, so silence was heard on the other side. The commander pressed on. "Okay here it is: The girls are moving out, so that means that they're beginning the search for more plants, but that also means that their defense is weaker. The other thing is that I know how to make the sun disappear, but she's protected by a army of her own."

Both James and Edgar understood the first part, but the second one confused both of them. 'Her'?

"Please explain to us what you mean by....'her'?" James asked, confused. The commander began broadcasting a white female alicorn walking to the baloney. To the two scientist's surprise, her horn glowed and the sun began to set from view. They were both stunned.

"B-but that's impossible!? Scientifically that isn't possible!" Dr. Edgar yelled. James nodded. There was no way that the sun could be rotating the planet. It was logically impossible due to the difference of mass. And even so the energy required to even move it would be impossible!

"It is, but think about it. I scanned and haven't detected any being that could raise the sun, which gives us a advantage if you know what I mean." Rommel said. James started to shake his head and started to look panicked.

"You're not suggesting to kidnap the princess to hinder them of using the solar energy?!" James said a bit shocked. Dr. Edgar only shook his head.

"I would like to follow you on that but, if she has that amount of energy to raise the sun, I think she could defend herself really well if we were to attempt capturing her, let alone turn her into one of us. And that's not considering the number of guards willing to risk their own lives to protect their princess."

"Well we could always use those new recruits to enter through their defense, then capture the princess when she's the most weakest, and take her as ransom. We could then divert the Mane 6 from their mission of collecting all the missing plants, and with a good strike, plow through everything in our path!" The commander yelled. Dr. Edgar thought for a moment.

"Well we could try. But this is a gamble that might cost is more than we have. Fine. Rommel, prepare the surprise attack on their solar queen. But we'll have to figure out how to do this without flaw...." The doctor said. The commander started to laugh.

"I don't think we'll have to think any further!" The commander said as he showed the Princess staring at a massive cake before eating it completely in a matter of minutes. Edgar smiled evilly as he starts to hatch up a plan....

The next day.....

"You got the cake ready Jester?" Rommel said to a figure that was holding a cake. But it wasn't any ordinary figure. It was a undead pony who was dressed to look like a living being. The grayness was hidden by the pony's natural color. And the cake he was holding was no ordinary cake. It was a trap.

"Eft as i'll ev'r beest! alloweth's crasheth this party!" The undead zombie said, his personality so similar to Jester Zombie who came from the Dark Ages. His real living name was Party Crasher so who would be a better job in capturing Princess Celestia other than Party Crasher?

"Good Old Ponish. Now do it." The commander said as he pushed the undead pony forward. The pony came to stop at the castle, where he met the Royal Guards.

"A delicacy f'r our queen. May h'r life beest prosp'rous!" The undead pony said. Not knowing what the heck he just said, but seeing the cake and knowing how Celestia loves cakes, they let him enter.

The undead pony is given permission by all the guards who he all says the same sentence. He gets to the palace where Celestia is sitting with the rest of the nobles.

"I say we got for them the moment we can!" Blue Blood yelled. "They've killed 500 of us! We must take down ten more at least if not all!" Blue Blood said. Fancy Pants nodded and shook his head at the same time.

"While I agree with getting revenge on the fallen, we can't suddenly attack them without knowing what advantages and weaknesses they have. If I'm correct some survivors commented that some are immune to magic and they use whatever they find as a shield. We don't know what we can encounter, so we have to plan first. Plus forming a army this quick would produce a small unorganized group of ponies. We can't risk losing more than we have to." Fancy Pants said. Suddenly they all stopped as Jester came in view with the cake.

"A delicacy f'r our queen. May h'r life beest prosp'rous!" Jester said. Celestia gratefully used her magic to lift the cake to herself.

"Thank you...."

"Jester." The undead zombie said. But something was off about him. Luna spotted that. She spotted something flashing inside the cake, and also a grey spot on the pegasus's wings.

"Why do you have that grey spot?" Luna asked the undead pony. The pony shifted a bit.

"I wast b'rn with yond spoteth" The pony said. His eyes darted to the cake, which was about to be eaten by Celestia. Luna pressed on further.

"That accent of yours was dead hundreds of years ago, yet you still use it?" Luna said. Jester started to become more anxious.

"Prithee stand ho criticizing mine own accent princess!" Jester said. Luna placed a hoof down right there.

"You're eyes are telling lies. What is inside the cake that my sister is about to consume!" Luna yelled. Jester sighed before doing a wicked smile.

"Thou art wrong as the lady'll nev'r receiveth a chance to consume t" Jester said before pulling out a button. He pressed it and it formed a vortex which started to pull on Celestia.

"What th-" Luna said, before starting to dash towards Celestia to help her escape. But it was too late. Celestia was already half way into the vortex when Luna reached her. And to make matters worse, Luna was pulled into the vortex as well. Jester did a laugh.

"Two in one!" Jester said. The nobles panicked, some running away, others charging at Jester, but a flash of light occurred and the trio were gone.
