Fight For Their Lives
Blood Will Spill
Previous ChapterThe hooves of the zombie scraped on the glass, leaving streaks of blood on the window.
Sapphire and Spike Jr hid behind their parents.
Fluttershy quickly flew over to her daughter.
"Twilight!" AJ exclaimed as more zombies began to pound the glass of the window.
Twilight began to use her magic to take anything she could find and build a barricade on the windows and doors. "Guys! I need help!" She yelled over the pounding noises.
Soarin quickly flew and kicked over a bookcase and struggled to move it, but managed to push it over to the rattling door. Then he flew over to protect Dash at any cost.
The door and windows pounded as if they would bust at any moment.
" Twilight, it's not safe here! We need to get out of here" Rarity squeaked.
"I'm working on it guys" Twilight said. Her horn began to glowed with a pink aura. Sparks began to fly off of it. "Every pony stay close" Twilight said through gritted teeth.
The door broke down with a heavy thud. The glass broke a second after. The zombies began to slowly come on to Twilight's library. They closed in to the group of huddling ponies (and dragon ).
"TWILIGHT!!!!!" Pinkie screamed
The zombies finally reached the ponies.
_____________________________________________________
The center of Ponyville was dark and quiet. Suddenly a pink spark created a temporary light. The ponies were teleportated to the town center, where thankfully, there were no zombies in sight.
"Wow that was insaine" Dash said with a bit of amusement in her voice.
Applesweet began to wake up. "Mom, where are we?" She said still half asleep.
"Shhhhh. It's ok Applesweet. Just relax" Fluttershy whispered. Surprisingly she was was really calm.
Spike looked at Twilight, who was breathing heavily and sweating from the intense spell. "You did it Twi!" He cheered.
Twilight sighed. "Thanks....." She groaned.
AJ looked around. "Now what?" She asked.
There was a shriek. It was coming from up ahead. Every pony quickly went over to the source of the screaming sounds of ponies.
Twilight slowed her pace as she approached the ponies who where circled around something. Twilight's eyes were full of grief as she saw what they were looking at. There, in the circle of the ponies, was Berry Punch. Her body was stiff and lifeless. Her eyes were pale.Blood trickled down her face and pooled around her, and some parts of her flesh was ripped.
Berry Punch's sister, Pina Colada was staring at her with eyes filled with sorrow. She cried heavily at the list of her sister in front if her.
"What happened?" Twilight asked.
"I d-don't know w-what happened. I j-just came out here a-and saw her" Piña Colada cried.
Fluttershy flew over and held Piña Colada in her arms. Applesweet did the same. "I'm so sorry piña Colada....." Fluttershy said, sharing her grief.
Twilight stood tall and looked and the shock-stricken ponies. "Listen every pony, we must stop this from happening again." She announced.
A cream colored earth pony steped up. "How can we if we don't know how Berry died?" She pointed out.
"Well, Bon Bon," Twilight started. "I don't know how she died, but I have an idea of how it did happen..... There are zombies coming"
Dash could obviously tell that they were about to freak out. "Don't you DARE scream" she commanded. The ponies did as so. They must have been so shocked at Berry's death, that they were too confused to do anything else. Dash nodded for Twilight to continue.
Twilight continued, "Please listen to me. We need to do something so the zombies don't kill or hurt anyone else. We need some sort of place were all Ponyville citizens can survive until the princess has finished her evacuation plan."
"What if we don't find a big enough place that won't be cramped untill the princess is done?" A minty green unicorn asked. "Lyra is right" a pony said in agreement.
"Look, ther won't be a perfect place. We just need something that we can survive in." Twilight argued.
"We could build something to keep us same?" Pinkie pie suggested.
"Ya" Soarin agreed. "Like a safety hole or something." Dash shook her head.
Twilight's eyes lit up. "Ya we could build some sort of wall or barricade that will protect every pony." She said. She turned to Soarin and AJ. "I need you two to find something to build with" she instructed. "And I need Pinkie and Spike to look for survivors."
With a nod, the four spreaded through out the city."Watch for zombies" Rainbow Dash called out before they disappeared.
"We need all the help we can get" Twilight said. "Try to lend a hoof wherever you can."
The ponies began to slowly walk around keeping an eye out for any zombies"
"What about....." A pony started to say, but then looked down at Berry Punch's torn body.
Twilight sighed sadly. "If you could, dig a hole and we'll bury her."
The stallion nodded and used his hooves to dig in the soft soil.
Twilight watched as they carefully lowered her body into the hole. She looked at the dull, starless, sky and sent out a silent prayer. "Oh Celestia, lets hope we make it in time..."
