Dawn.

Pinkie Pie woke from her bed with a jump, as she did usually. She immediately began to rant about the party that was tonight, but it wasn't just ANY party, it was a party that PRINCESS CELESTIA was attending, and that put Pinkie in a even more joyful mood. Her pet alligator, Gummy, woke as well. Pinkie quickly picked him up and began to prance around the room, chanting happily.

"Big party! Gummy! We're going to host the biggest party of the year!"

Pinkie put Gummy on a shelf and started hopping cheerfully to the basement, to were her signature party cannon lay ready to fire. "This is going to be a GREAT day!!!"

Edward Richtofen smiled as he looked out of the window of the bakery.

"Today is going to be a GREAT day!"

Richtofen kept staring and thinking. That stallion in the woods had been an excellent subject to question. Now that he was up to date on Equestria's history, he could continue his "business" with the princess. Oh, what a joy it had been to ask a few questions to a guard....then stab him to death with his own horn.

"Ohhhh.... So much blood..."

Richtofen giggled at the memory, and how his companions would react to his body. Richtofen laughed, then heard a knock on the door. "Well, well, well, who could that be?"

He trotted over to door with a big(and somewhat creepy) smile. Richtofen opened it, and there stood a lavender unicorn, who looked worn out. The unicorn smiled and spoke, "Hi, are the Cakes home?"

Richtofen nodded his head, "Ja, but they're sleeping. What do you what?"

The unicorn tilted her head confusingly, then asked another question, "Do you have the cake I ordered?"

Richtofen smiled, "Oh, ja! Right this way, and Eddy Rick will satisfy your catering needs!" He motioned her inside, but she simply shook her head, "No thank you, Mister Rick, I just need to know you have the cake. The one with the Elements of Harmony drawn onto it."

The voices in Richtofen's head screamed at him to kill her, but he ignored them. "Let's see..." He faked a glance over his shoulder, "Wunderbar! We have it! Now you just continue planning the party, we'll be here!"

Richtofen started to close the door, when another pony joined the unicorn, this one was orange, and was wearing a cowboy hat. "Twilight! Come 'ere quick! We gotta darn problem!"

The unicorn named Twilight groaned, "Not again... Alright, Applejack, what's the matter?"

Applejack pointed down the road, "There's a stranger up at the Acres. We're holdin' 'em fer now, but he's beginnin' to to break free! We need a unicorn!"

Twilight stared at her, "Alright, slow down. Now, describe the stranger."

Applejack wasted no time, "He's about yay high. Gotta weird hat on 'em. Tan coat. Large. Drinks somethin' called 'vodka.' And calls 'imself 'Nikolai.'"

At the mention of "Nikolai", the door to the bakery opened and Richtofen came back out. "Oh, wunderbar! Nikolai is here! I was getting very lonely... Now, now ladies, take me to him! I don't have all day."

Richtofen calmly strode past the mares leaving them both speechless.

"Ah, you gotta be freaking kidding me! A hill!"

Dempsey looked at the large mound in anger. It was a LONG descend to a farm below him. Dempsey simply spat in the dirt.

"Nothing's to tough for a marine, so lets dance, hill!"

Dempsey slid down to a ledge, then unhooked his knife from his vine strap. He dug into the wall of the hill and began his descent, only to find it harder than he thought. "Gah, why can't we get teleported to a night club?! At least there I don't have to stuff freakbags or climb FUCKING hills, it'd be nice!"

Dempsey continued to climb down, cursing with both his mouth and mind. His hooves did not grip as well as feet did, so it was a long, tiring climb down, he frequently lost his hold. After about two hours of climbing down, Dempsey finally made it to the bottom, with a selective choice of words.

"If I have to climb just one more FUCKING hill, I'll take this M16 and shove it up the nearest horse's ass!"

"Hey! That's pony to you!"

Dempsey looked behind him, no one was there. He laughed, "And now I'm going INSANE! Thank you, Richto-dumbass!"

"Up here, buster!"

Dempsey looked up, sitting on a cloud, eyeing him fiercely, was a cyan colored Pegasus. Dempsey shook his head at the sight and mumbled, "Whose this prick?"

The Pegasus looked offended that he didn't know her, "Rainbow Dash! The fastest and best flier in all of Equestria! I can outrun anypony here!"

Dempsey snickered, it was just so funny to be talking to a horse with rainbow colored hair. It's like he was stuck in the head of a six-year old, "Okay, Rainbitch Crash, where's the nearest town?"

Dash was on the ground and in his face in seconds, he'd pissed her off. "Alright, cheap shot, why don't you say that again? I'll put you in a world of hurt before you blink!"

Dempsey just laughed. However, he didn't expect a hoof to fly into his mouth, and a jolt of pain hit him as some blood escaped from his jaw. Dash smirked, "That'll teach ya!"

That's when the butt of Dempsey's M16 smacked Dash in the face. The hit didn't break anything, but it had enough force to knock Dash down and bloody her nose. Dempsey wasn't done yet though, and although Dash recovered fast, Dempsey was fast enough to tackle her, and they both went rolling down another hill.

"I- I've never felt so much power!"

Nightmare Moon felt the presence of almost ten thousand figures in Equestria, beings the filly Samantha had called "zombies." For the past half hour, Samantha had told her about how zombies worked, what could be done, and that she was more powerful than most. Nightmare had never thought she'd EVER hear those words from a filly.

"DO YOU REMEMBER THE PLAN, NIGHTMARE?"

"Yes, yes. Make more zombies. Take Canterlot. Kill Celestia. Give the zombies back to you. I could say it all day!"

Samantha laughed demonically, "YOU FORGOT ONE IMPORTANT STEP, SECURE THE ELEMENTS OF HARMONY, BUT DON'T WORRY, I'LL TAKE CARE OF THAT..."

"NOW, TAKE CONTROL! SEND FEAR INTO THE PONIES' HEARTS!!!!"

Nightmare hesitated, before today, she had thought zombies to be children's stories, but then remembered how it would help her take over Equestria. Oh, she couldn't wait to have Celestia, Luna, and the Mane Six killed and turned into her minions, so she unleashed her newfound power.

A small horde of zombies suddenly stopped, their eyes changing from yellow, to a moon-like color. They all heard the voice of their new mother, "Go, my armies, strike the living of Equestria while they are oblivious!"

The entire horde obeyed, turning to pink rooftops in the distance, a horde of about one thousand zombies headed to the nearest habited place: the town of Ponyville.

Author's Note

Alright, a little confusing chapter(espicially the Dempsey/Dash fight and the Samantha/Nightmare Moon moment), but next chapter will have zombies(of course), action, and vodka.

I'm gonna hold a little contest: who is going to be the first character killed by the zombies(or Richtofen)? Any character will do as long as they follow these rules....

1- Anyone but the main cast, Zombies characters, Derpy, and any antagonists can be excepted.
2- OCs MUST have a short decription that looks like this:
Name-
Sex/Gender-
Coat Color-
Mane Color-
Eye Color-
Age(child, adult, or elderly, pick ONE)-
Cutie Mark description(not required, but one will be automatically chosen if not put)-
Personality decription-
Type of pony(normal, unicorn, or Pegasus)-

ANY NON PONY CHARACTERS WILL AUTOMATICALLY BECOME INVALID AND WILL NOT BE FEATURED IN THE STORY.

3- The character MUST be killed by zombies or Richtofen.

IF YOU WANT AN OC THAT YOU DO NOT WANT KILLED, I AM ALSO ACCEPTING THOSE, BUT YOU MUST PUT IN THE DECRIPTION THAT YOU WANT HIM/HER TO LIFE. OTHERWISE, I WILL CHOSE WHEN AND HOW THEY DIE.

Night Fury the Black out.
