Ravaged Lands

by A Derpy King Boo

In the once peaceful Equestria, an epic infection arises, turning everypony into flesh eating zombies. I try to last as long as I can, but fail in the end and become one of them. However, I can still use my brain to control my infection. With some help from an old friend, I try to get some help before time runs out. Rated M for later parts.

Ravaged Lands

Chapter 1: The Last Moment

I kept running as fast as I could. I looked back and saw a dark gray sky along with dozens, if not hundreds, of unicorns, Pegasi, and Earth ponies chasing after me. I saw Fluttershy, Rarity, and Applejack all chasing after me, leading the herd of infected. I wasn't too sure if Twilight, Pinkie Pie, or Rainbow Dash were gone too, but I couldn't stop and make sure they were all fine. I swung my head back around and continued running.

I outstretched my wings and tried taking off, but the pain Fluttershy gave me earlier had caused me to stay grounded. I tried very hard to fly away, but failed in taking off. My hooves were growing more tired by the second, but I couldn't stop, not now.

I'm not tired! I'm not tired! I encouraged myself. I had pushed myself beyond my limits but still was forced to keep going.

In front of me stood a giant cliff. I came to a halt and peered my head over the side, revealing a long fall ahead. Turning around, I saw the herd of infected running straight towards me. I turned back around, shut my eyes, and started rushing off the side, but not before my left hind hoof was struck.

I groaned and screamed in pain, looking down to realize that my Fluttershy was the one who bit my leg. I managed to shake her off and glide down to safety inside a thick forest. I stood in the forest for a while, tending to my bitten leg. I couldn't put any weight on it, so I was walking on the other three legs. It was much slower than how I'd been traveling the last few minutes, but I was safe for now.

At least that's what I thought...

When I heard sounds coming from behind me, I stopped and turned around to see where it was coming from. Nopony else was there with me, so I decided to hide myself inside the tall, aluminizing grass.

I hid myself from any obvious sight and peered my head out, just a bit. I looked around and heard the sounds coming closer. When they finally stopped, I took one long last look to make sure the coast was clear. When I figured I was all alone, I got back up, and started limping my way over to safety. However, when I started moving, I was treated to my last remaining memories alive:

I was tackled to the ground, looked up, and saw my Fluttershy bite ferociously into my chest, where my heart was. She snapped my heart out and tossed it aside and thus, I have died.
