Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Twilight Sparkle walked around her liberary. The lavender unicorn started to collect a few books for her new magic school. Her purple and pink hair was tied in a pony tail and she had her reading glasses on. "Spike, do you think you could find my book on advanced spells?" she asked. "Here it is" the purple dragon said. Spike had a life with Rarity, but he still worked with Twilight in the library. He was much larger then he when he and Twilight first came to Ponyville and he had grown light green wings.

"Thanks Spike! What would I do without you?" Twilight smiled useing her pink magic aura to pick up the book in Spike's claws. "If you want, you can go home with Rarity" "Are you sure Twi? You don't need any more help?" Spike asked. "I'm fine, really. You should go!" Twilight said nudging her friend. "Thanks Twi." Spike said heading for the door.

All of a sudden, the dragon stopped a few feet from Twilight.  He belched a green flame. The fire transformed into a letter. "Oh! A letter from Princess Celestia. I wonder what she wants to tell me at this time?" she said her pink aura levitating the letter. As Twilight Sparkle read the letter, her eyes widened. Her aura dissapered and the letter dropped to the floor. "What is it Twilight! What's wrong" Spike asked. Twilight was silent, she only whispered, " This is terrible.........".     "What is?!" Spike asked curiously.

Twilight tried to calm down, but it was really hard to. " The Princess has....i-informed m-me.....that there is a threat of.....(gulp) ......z-zombies" she stuttered. "ZOMBIES!?!?" Spike yelled. "I need to get home now!!!!!" "I know, but we have to get the girls. I have no idea where they are now......" Twilight trailed off. "Well, you know where Rarity is, and Pinkie Pie lives at Sugar Cube Corner. Apple Jack and Fluttershy live at Sweet Apple Aceres, and Rainbow Dash lives in Cloudsdale." Spike said.

Twilight stared at him for a bit and then said, "I guess then you should go to Rarity" She said. "Okay" Spike said flying out the door. Twilight ran out and yelled, "Tell Rarity come back to the liberary. I'll start writing letters to the rest of the ponies. Hurry" "I will Twi." Spike said flying off. Twilight went back into the liberary and sat down and began her warnings.

Spike landed in front of a large house. He went inside and found two dragon-ponies coming to meet him. "Hi dad! Your home late. What's the occasion?" one said. "Um...no reason Sapphire." Spike said trying not to say anything about the zombies. "You seem strange dad, what's going on?" the other one questioned. "Nothing Jr., I'm fine......where's your mom?" "In her office" Sapphire said before going back to play with her brother.

Spike entered Rarity's office where she designs clothes. "Hello Spike, rough day in the library I assume?" the white mare asked turning from her work. "Yes........ listen Rarity, I need to tell you something" the dragon sighed. "Of course!" Rarity said, her blue magic aura putting down a sewing needle. "Ok, please stay calm when I tell you this, Equestria is in danger, and it's being attacked by zombies" Spike said quietly. Rarity was quiet for several seconds, and then she started to laugh. "Honestly Spike, you have spent way to much time reading those books at Twilights house." she said. Spikes eyes showed that he was dead serious. Rarity stopped laughing. She hung her head in guilt for denying him. She knew that he just wanted to protect the family.

Spike continued, "Twilight got a letter from the princess telling her about the threat. We must get to the library at once." "Yes Spike, but what about the kids?" Rarity said with worry. "Don't worry, they will stay safe at the library." Spike said trying to calm her down. Rarity thought for several moments, then finally said, "Alright Spike, we shall leave at once." Rarity said.

"I need to go tell Jr. and Sapphire" Spike said heading for the office door. The two opened the door and stopped. Their two fillies were waiting at their door. Their eyes were wide. Spike sighed. "Have you two been listening?" They both nodded silently. "Ok guys, let's head for Twilight's house. Stay close by and hurry" Rarity said heading outside. The four quickly ran to Twilight's house. Ponyville was only safe for a very short time, but in Cloudsdale, the appocolipse had just begun.
