4. For What Was Lost

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

We lost so many ponies today. You see, we sent a large number of ponies from Fillydelphia to Appleloosa, to see if they could reclaim it, thank Celestia, they did it. Though, it wasn't very long lived. 3 months after they had settled in, a large horde of zombies fell upon the town, setting it ablaze and either turning or devouring most of the residents. Thankfully, a small group, consisting of Fancy Pants, Vinyl Scratch, Octavia, and Shooting Star, a buffalo, had been on a recon mission. Once they had seen what had befalen Appleloosa, then ran to us for help.

Storming Appleloosa would be suicide, as there would be over 200 citzens that might have been turned, 425 zombies, and according to their reports, atleast 17 buffalo. Those odds werent good. Also, it turns out one of those killed by the zed's was Vinyl's brother, Mixer. He was taken out trying to defend a family of 4, who had also mangaged to escape, except the father, who had stayed behind with Mixer to hold off the group of 22 zeds that had come for them. They retreated to Money Marketer, the father's house. Heart was taken down by the zed version of his mother, Apple Sapling. Then, the zeds forced their way into the home, Mixer fought bravely, but it as no use.

We all said a prayer for Mixer, he would be remembered as a hero. The family, minues one, he had rescued, had made it to our fort, we gave them shelter and a place to stay, alongside treating their injuries. The mother, Seastone, was fishermare by trade, goig out to Salt Lake to catch few herring or so. Her husband had been an accountant and part time salespony. They had to fillies, Dumpling, and Prism. A very nice family.

A scouting/scavenging party consisting of Lyra, Cadence, my sister-in-law, and Caramel returned later that day, when Celestia had lowered the sun to about midday. They had come back with some food (Boxes of haygetti and a few cans of sardines), some clothes from a clothing shop in Canterlot, a hefty bag of bits, and a DVD, The Road to El Porado, one of my favorite movies.

We all watched a copy of I Am Pony, a movie about an Earth Pony, who lived a life somewhat like how we ere. We laughed at all of his jokes, and cryed especially when he had to put down his dog.

After that, my beautiful Luna raised her moon and night, showering us in wonderous stars. We snuggled up together in my bed, as the night drew on to another day.
