Less than human
Chapter 3: The party
Previous ChapterThe 31st of October. 17.00
All people were wearing costumes of different creatures: ghosts, vampires, etc. But what they didn't expect to see 10 people who were looking like zombies. They were all like real. Everyone was just staring at them. Then the highest one made a roar, and children ran away.
"Did you need to roar, Tank?" asked Boomer.
"They were staring at us. Witch doesn't like it. You all know what happens when she is watching for a long time." Everyone nodded in understanding. Soon they approached the school, where the party will be. Then they saw a poster, which said that the party will begin at 18.00.
"Great, now we need to wait," said Smoker.
"Calm down, we just need to wait and that's all," said Spitter.
"Yeah, but will people find it strange that 10 zombies are standing in front of the school."
"They'll just think that it's costumes," said Charger. Only Witch and Jockey didn't say a word since they entered this world. After 50 minutes all infected were bored. Some of them were hitting their head at the wall. Suddenly the door was opened and Principal Celestia showed up:
"Can you please stop doing that? Do you want to break the wall?"
"I don't mind," said Charger.
"What are you doing here anyway?" asked Celestia. Then he saw three guests that were here yesterday.
"Oh, I know you. You're Screamer, Hunter, and Robert."
"Yeah," said Robert.
"So are you here for the party?"
"Yeah," answered Hunter.
"So that's your friends?" Suddenly the vice-principal with Mane 7 came out of the building and infected.
"Wow, you guys have cool costumes. They like are real," said Pinkie.
"So, what're your names?" asked Twilight.
"That's Smoker, Boomer, Witch, Tank, Jockey, Charger and Spitter," said Robert. Girls looked at infected and were a little scared of their appearances. Jockey had a creepy wild smile, Spitter had an ugly face, Tank was giant and had no jaw, Charger had a right large arm and left small one. But they calmed yourself down by knowing that it was just costumes.
"Are you waiting for a party?"
"Yeah, what time is it?"
"It's 18.50. C'mon you can wait inside," said Applejack. With those words, all entered the building. Soon they were in the sports hall. Then people in costumes began fulling the hall and then Principal from the stage said:
"Good evening everyone. It's a pleasure to meet all our students here in Haloween. Now let's get this party started." said Celestia into the microphone. Then the music turned on and the party began. All were enjoying the party except infected. They didn't have a party in their world.
Hunter
Hunter was sitting on the floor in the corner and looked at the party. Everyone was having fun, but he wasn't. Suddenly Derpy approached him and asked:
"Hello, are you new here?"
"Yes. What you want?"
"I just saw you that you were sitting there alone. It's strange that only I saw you because as you can see I have a problem with eyes."
"At least, you have eyes." Those words surprised Derpy, then Hunter turned to her and lifted the edge of the hood which covered his face. What Derpy saw was horrible. Instead of eyes, Hunter had two black eye nests. She slowly lifted her finger to nest and shoved finger. She quickly covered her mouth, when she realized that Hunter didn't have eyes.
"Oh God, What happened to you?"
"I tore them out. Because of one virus, when I open my eyes, I feel pain. Then I just tore them out."
"But how you can see?"
"Scent and echolocation," said Hunter. Suddenly Derpy hugged him and said:
"Don't worry. Everything will be fine."
"Umm, alright."
"Can I ask you a favor?"
"What?"
"Can you teach me how to navigate without eyes?"
"Uuh. Alright."
"Thanks." Derpy hugged Hunter stronger.
"I can't breathe."
"Oops, sorry," said Derpy releasing Hunter.
Smoker
Smoker was standing in front of exit and smoking. Suddenly he saw Celestia sitting on the chair depressed. He approached her and asked:
"Hi, why are you not enjoying the party?"
"I want to ask you the same."
"Heh, alright, but can you answer?"
Celestia sighed and said: "I surrounded by idiots. Of course, I like my students, but sometimes they're just really annoying."
"Huh, welcome to my world," said Smoker. Celestia looked at him and saw a cigarette.
"Umm, do you have another one?" asked Celestia pointing to the cigar. Smoker pulled out another one from his pocket and gave it to Celestia. She lightened it and took a deep breath.
"Oh yeah, that' all I needed." She looked to Smoker and suddenly he became looking pretty.
"Hey, maybe we can go for a walk tomorrow?"
Smoker was confused. Did she invite him to date? He simply nodded and Celestia hugged him. It was a little unusual for Smoker, but he just hugged her back.
Boomer
Boomer was eating a cake and watching the party. Suddenly someone poking him into the back. He looked down and saw three little girls.
"Hello, what you want?"
"We just wanted to say hello. I'm Applebloom. That's Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle." said the girl. Suddenly Diamond Tiara and Shining Spoon walked to the table and saw girls.
"Oh look who is here? Talentless girls."
"Leave us alone Diamond. We are having fun here."
"Oh yeah with who? With this fat man?"
"Hey, that's rude you know."
"I don't care."
"If you won't fuck off, I will make you do it."
"What did you just say? I'm Diamond-" she didn't end her sentence because something covered her. She saw a green substance and it smelled bad. She looked at Boomer who was wiping the same thing from...his mouth. After realization, Diamond Tiara screamed and ran away. Shining Spoon just looked at her boss and headed to the dancing crowd.
"What was that?" asked Sweetie Belle.
"Did you just puke on her?" asked Applebloom.
"Yes, I am," said Boomer. After a few seconds, girls began laughing.
"Hahaha, oh god, I had to take a camera," said Scootaloo.
"Yeah, hehe, that's was funny. Thanks, Mr..."
"Boomer. Just call me Boomer."
"Cool name. Can we be friends?"
"Huh, alright."
"Yay!" shouted girls and hugged infected. Then he hugged them back.
Tank and Witch
Tank was sitting at the corner and keeping the eye on Witch. Witch strangely didn't even sob. Tank saw her eating the pink cupcake. Suddenly two girls approached them.
"Hey you, back away," said Lighting Dust.
"We can't have a cupcake because of you," said Suri Polomare. Tank backed away and girls began picking up cupcakes. Suddenly Lighting Dust turned to Witch. She approached her and said:
"Hey you, give me that cupcake."
"Why did you need it? She had already bit it."
"I'll tear out the bitten spot. Anyway, give me that."
"You would better get away from her."
"Or what."
"She'll tear you out." Then Witch got up and sliced the wall and there were 4 scratches on the wall.
"Believe me. Her claws are real."Suri Polomare ran to the crowd. While LD wanted to slap Witch, but she was grabbed by something. Then he saw a Tank, which was holding her with his arm.
"Wait, how the hell you can lift me?"
"Let's just say. That's not a costume. I'm real." said Tank with a low tone. LD's pupils shrank and now she was scared.
"Now go," said Tank releasing LD. When she landed, she instantly ran away. Tank and Witch chuckled and continued eating the cupcake.
Jockey
Jockey was jumping on the table and laughing like a psycho. Everyone just didn't pay attention to him. Suddenly Pinkie Pie approached him and said:
"Hi there."
"Heheheheh," said Jockey.
"Ou, so how are you?"
"Iamfinethanks."
"Wowareyoutoospeakingfast, don'tyou?"
"Ohyeah,Iam"
"Coolandawesome. Wewillbethebestfriends." said Pinkie. "MynameisPinkaminaDianeOie,butyoucancallmePinkiePie. What'syourname?"
"IamJockey."

"I.E. climbingonthemandusethemlikehorse." Jockey just rapidly nodded.
"Haha,Ithinkitisfunny."
"Hey you, can you shut up?" said Blueblood.
"HeyBlueblood. Itisrudeyouknow." said Pinkie.
"Talk normally."
"Okie-dokie-lokie." said Pinkie.
"Alright, now can you please keep the silence? I want to eat in silence."
"But there is loud music here?"
"How did you suppose to eat in silence?"
"It's possible without your annoying voice."
"Hey, that's rude you know."
"I don't care." Suddenly Jockey jumped on Blueblood and was holding him by his face.
"Ahhh, get off me, get off, get off me," shouted Blueblood. Jockey was riding him into the crowd and then he jumped off and pushed him into the table with cupcakes. Jockey was laughing and jumping to Pinkie. She was lying and laughing on the ground.
"Hahahahahahahahaha, That was very hilarious."
"YeahIknow."
"Youareverycool.Let'sbefriends."
"Yeah," said Jockey. Then he jumped to Pinkie and hugged her.
Charger
Charger was staying near the music system and drinking the soda from the little tube. Then he saw Fluttershy who was sitting in the corner and petting her rabbit Angel. He approached her and asked:
"Can I join you?"
"Yeah, of course."
"My name's Charger."
"My name is Fluttershy. It's nice to meet you." After a few seconds of silence, she asked:
"How did you do that?"
"What?"
"Your costume."
"It's not a costume. It's really what my arms look like."
Fluttershy gasped and covered her mouth.
"How is that possible? I didn't saw such a mutation."
"Ugh, I used to it," said Charger. Suddenly she was pushed to the ground. Charger looked at the girl who pushed her.
"Your time is over," said Glida. She took the chair, but suddenly Charger said:
"Why did you push her? She didn't do anything to you."
"Fuck off, ugly. I am not talking to you."
"What makes you think that you can treat others?"
"Listen here, hillbilly. I can do whatever I want, and no one is-" Charger grabbed her by his hand and said:
"Listen here. If you harm Fluttershy again, you'll deal with me. Are you understand that?" Charger squeezed her stronger. Glida yelled and said:
"Alright, alright I understood." With those words, Charger threw her to the exit door.
BAM
"Ouch. That's hurt," said Fluttershy. "Thank you for this, but you didn't have to do that."
"No, I had to do it," said Charger. "You're innocent and weak. Only bad people will threaten someone like you."
"Thanks," said Fluttershy.
Spitter
Spitter was drinking the water and watching the party. Suddenly Twilight approached her.
"Hello, Spitter."
"Oh hi.."
"My name's Twilight Sparkle."
"Oh, so what do you think about the party?"
"Uh, pretty good. But I don't keen on this." Suddenly Spitter took the glass and spat green substance here.
"What is this?" Spitter took the stick and put it into the glass. Then he pulled out the half of it.
"Is that an acid?"
"Yes. My stomach generates her. I can't control it, so I need to spit her sometimes."
"Oh, but it even possible?"
"I'm just was infected by a virus. And it transformed me into it."
"Wait, it's not a costume?" Spitter nodded. Twilight was shocked because in front of her was a woman, whose face was deformed by an unknown virus.
"Is it infectious?"
"Well, actually supposed to be but when we arrived at this place, we noticed that the virus didn't spread everywhere."
"So, it means that it's gone?"
"Yeah, I think."
"Wait, does that mean that all of your friends are.."
"Yes."
Twilight was in shock. Those people were deformed and now they are stuck in such a state forever.
"I should check you. I can create an antidote."
"Don't even try. The virus is always mutating. It's impossible to create a cure. No worries, we used to it." Twilight wanted to argue but gave up. Then she looked at Flash Sentry who was talking to his teammates. She wanted to talk with him, but she was hesitating. Suddenly Spitter said:
"If you like him, don't be afraid of telling him your feelings."
"I know. I just worry that he'll just laugh at me."
"Listen, I don't know you, but you are a good girl. Go and talk with him." After a few seconds, Twilight approached him and asked him to dance. Flash Sentry confused but then nodded and they began dancing. Twilight looked at Spitter, who lifted her thumb.
Screamer
The Screamer was staying in the corridor and watching the wall. Suddenly someone poked him. He turned around and saw Luna.
"What do you want?"
"I'm just wondering why you're not a party."
"Ugh, I just like silence."
"So, if you want to be alone, can I ask you something?"
"Ok."
"Can you come with me?" Screamer lifted his eyebrow.
"You know, I also like to be alone, but also I like videogames. Do you want to play with me?"
"Hmm, okay, it's more interesting than staring at the wall," said Screamer following the vice-principal. When they entered the cabinet, Screamer was surprised to see a big TV with XBOXONE. Luna turned the TV on and connected it to the console. Soon she chose the game "Mortal Kombat 11". Then she gave one gamepad to infected while she was holding her. The battle began: Kitana vs. Scorpion. Soon Luna began loosing, he looked at Screamer who was using the gamepad with his...feet. It surprised Luna so much, that she lost her attention and she lost again.
"How did you do that?"
"Do what?"
"You were controlling the gamepad with your feet."
"Oh that, try to be strapped for 1 year in a straitjacket and then you will learn to use your feet like hands."
"Wait, is it a real straitjacket?"
"Yes."
"And you were wearing it for 1 year?"
"Yeah."
"Ou, so are you from the asylum?"
"Yeah, I was locked because I was writing something on the wall. So doctors thought that I'm insane and locked me up."
"Oh God, why they didn't even check you?"
"Huh, they were worrying more about their money than patients? Anyway, let's just play the game."
"Oh yeah, let's play." With those words, both of them continued playing.
Robert
Robert was walking through the crowd and then spotted the Dazzlings and Sunset talking to each other. He approached them and said:
"Hi." The girls looked at him and also said hi. Then Robert looked at Dazzlings and recognized them.
"Hey, I know you."
"Yeah, everyone knows about us."
"You're that girl with a knife." he pointed to Sonata.
"Wait what? How did you-" Adagio stopped and remembered that incident with Sonata on the 28th of October.
"Wait, you saw that yeah?"
"Yeah, you tried to hug Tank, but he saw a knife and sent you flying into her." he pointed to Aria.
"Wait, is that a Tank?" Adagio pointed to somewhere. Then girls saw a large muscular man.
"So, it's not a bigfoot?"
"No. Anyway for which reason everyone should know you." Then Dazzlings and Sunset told him about their attempts to take over the world. When they ended their stories, Robert said:
"Huh, it's fucked up. But it's better than Green Flu."
"What's Green Flu?"
"It's a disease that turns people into aggressive zombies."
"Never heard of it."
"Indeed, because-"
"Witches!" someone shouted. It was a group of boys and girls.
"Go away," said Aria.
"You should go away. Nobody wants you here." Suddenly Robert approached them and said:
"If you continue insulting them, I will punch you."
"Pfft, did you know who am I?" Them the punch was sent to his face. He landed on the table. Others were shocked by such power and quickly ran away. Then Robert approached girls.
"Thanks for this, but that was unnecessary."
"No, you know that you made a wrong step. You deserved a second chance." With those words, girls hugged him.
"Thanks."
