The Audience watch another horror universe, this time involving zombies. (Or at least something close to them.)

Tom: Qrow Branwen

Bill: Jaune Arc

"What can you tell us about this world?" Glynda asked.

"Not really for the faint of heart," Darth Anarchus replied. "Humanity is nearly wiped out by a fungi virus similar to a zombie virus,"

"Wait, you mean. . ." Ruby's eyes widened. The Host smiled at her slightly. "You'll just have to see."

Ruby gulped in response before smiling slightly as Oscar patted her on the shoulder.

"What if it's true?" Glynda Goodwitch's voice asked in the darkness.

People were shown running away, screaming in fear as a car burns.

"Do I need to remind you what's out there?" Taiyang Xiao Long asked.

Ruby and Yang perked up. "Ooh! So Dad's the main character?" Ruby asked.

The Host thought it over for a bit before nodding. "Yes, yes, he is." (1)

"Sweet," Ruby and Yang grinned. "Maybe this isn't that bad."

Qrow facepalmed next to Robyn. "You just jinxed it," he muttered.

A hallway of lockers were shown as the shadow of a spasming and limping figure was shown, growling.

And just like that, Ruby stopped grinning, her face paled, silver eyes widened.

"Ruby?" Oscar asked in concern before the girl hugged him like a kola. "ZOMBIE!" she screamed, her voice echoing through the theater.

"Did someone just say 'zombie' or 'crombie?'. . . 'Crombie' is that even a word? You're losing your mind, Stan."

"The correct term for these things in this universe is Infected," Darth Anarchus said before giving Ruby a glare. "Don't scream like that again." he said before his tone shifted. "And let go of Oscar, you're cutting off his oxygen."

"Oh! I'm so sorry!" Ruby said as she let go of Oscar.

(Cough) "It's fine." Oscar rubbed his neck. "Nothing I'm not familiar with."

"Girl sure can scream," Emerald muttered as she and almost everyone rubbed their ears in pain.

"Once upon a time," Taiyang began as two people were shown walking through the forest as the sun set. He was shown walking up to Junior. "I had someone I cared about. And in this sort of world, that sort of shit is good for one thing. To get you killed."

Ruby Rose was shown loading a bullet into the chamber of a gun.

"Oh great, I'm in a zombie universe," Ruby muttered.

Tai, Qrow, Raven and Summer however focused on what was said by Tai's counterpart.

NAUGHTY DOG

This got chuckles and snickers from Coco, Nora, Yang, Mercury and Cardin.

"We need something smuggled out of the city," Glynda said.

"Smuggling shouldn't be a priority, right?" Mercury asked.

"It is for getting things and people out of the cities safely without being stolen by other gangs or attacked by the Infected." Darth Anarchus replied.

"She's just cargo, Tai," Cinder Fall said to the blonde man who turned away and shook his head.

"Who are they talking about?" Pyrrha asked. The Host held up his hand and gestured for her to wait.

Both Tai and Ruby were shown as they rode two horses.

"I just need simple gear," Tai said, sitting on a chair and talking to someone out of view of the Audience. "Enough to send me on my way."

"I reckon he's got something to do with that girl," Jaune Arc's voice said as both Ruby and Tai watch the sunlight. The camera pans to Ruby.

"He's got everything to do with that little girl," Qrow Branwen remarked.

"Oh, they were talking about Ruby," Oscar said in realization.

"My daughter is not cargo!" Tai said and glared at Cinder. Cinder looked away. Well, that's one difference between the two of us, she thought as she looked to the screen when her counterpart had shown. People are not cargo.

"Well, your counterparts are not related in this universe," Darth Anarchus said with a shrug. The Rose-Xiao Long-Branwen family looked among themselves, unsure how to feel about that.

A guarded city was shown with very few citizens. Tai walked through the streets and looked to the people.

"It can't be worse than in here," Ruby said as she glanced to Tai. "Can it?"

"Bet 10 Lien it's going be just as worse," Mercury said.

"One of the worse things in a apocalypse," the Host stated with a shake of his head. "Human nature."

Tai walks around Junior who is tied to a chair, knife in hand.

"We're shitty people, Taiyang," Cinder said. "It's been that way for a long time."

"No, we are survivors!" Tai said defensively.

"This is our chance-" Cinder began but was interrupted by Tai. "IT IS OVER, CINDER!" he shouted.

Qrow, Tai and Ruby were shown, riding on horses on a hill that overlooked a city before it switched to Tai and Glynda looking around a large city.

"People do terrible things when push comes to shove," Darth Anarchus said during the interaction between Cinder and Tai.

"So, this Tai has been through a lot?" Summer asked, feeling sympathetic for the counterpart of her husband.

Ruby glares angrily. "What are you so afraid of?" she asks Tai.

"You're treading on thin ice," Tai said in a warning tone.

People were shown with guns, walking past a crate that Ruby and Tai were hiding behind. "What do we do?" Ruby asked. The camera zooms on Tai's face. "We make every shot count," he replied.

Tai holds a shotgun with a flashlight in a dark room. An Infected was shown eating someone in front of him before it looked up to him. It quickly rose up with a growl and ran to the blonde man.

Tai hits the infected with a pickaxe so hard, blood splattered the screen. Tai was then with a gas mask. He was then shown grabbing a man and ramming his head into a glass window.

"Good skills," Raven said in a impressed tone while some turned green from the short glimpse of the gore.

"Oh no, Dad!" Ruby shouted when she saw her dad being attacked by an Infected.

"Shoot it, shoot it!" Yang shouted before she saw Tai killing it with the pickaxe. "That works."

"I like this Tai," Tyrian laughed. Most of the villains rolled their eyes.

Ruby and Tai held up their hands as someone out of view aimed a gun on them.

Tai shoots an infected as it tried to jump Ruby.

Ruby runs with a shotgun on her back. "You see, I believe everything happens for a reason," Tai said as he was shown falling down an elevator shaft. Then he holds back an Infected that was trying to eat him.

"If we ever get the chance to visit these different universes," Nora spoke to Ren. "Let's not put this universe on the "To Visit" list." Ren nodded.

"Not to mention let's hope that a zombie doesn't show up during an intermission," Cardin added with shudder and this reminded the Audience that they could be visited by their counterparts and one of the first was Dracula. Who's to say that a zombie would be summoned on accident like Dracula? The teens hoped not.

"You don't have to do this." Junior said fearfully. "You know that right?"

A man was shown begging while Tai picked up a bloody machete.

Tai fights another person before being shown drowning.

"I didn't think all of this would be happening in a zombie apocalypse," Weiss stated in shock.

"You're telling me," Summer said in agreement. "Every time I see more, I get more worried." she said in a worried tone for the counterparts of her daughter and husband. Although she didn't show it, Raven felt the same.

"After all we've been through," Ruby's voice said as she and Tai hid behind a wall from Infected before they were being blown up. "Everything I've done," The silver haired girl aims a gun at Taiyang.

The girl's family and friends gasped. Family or not in this universe, it was still a shock for them to see Ruby aiming a gun at her father.

THE LAST OF US

"It can't be for nothing," Ruby finished.

"Well. . . thoughts?" Darth Anarchus asked when the screen went black and the lights

"Ignore the family drama," Roman stated, "I enjoyed this a lot. I think this version of Taiyang's a cool guy."

"It's not what I expected," Amber admitted.

"I guess the only thing we could take from this is more information to prepare us for a zombie apocalypse," Oscar stated.

"I guess," Pyrrha said in uncertainty.

"This makes me wonder, what's worse zombies or Grimm?" Jaune said.

"Zombies! Definitely zombies!" Ruby exclaimed. Salem frowned. Her Grimm were worse compared to a walking corpse. Oh wait. . .

"Grimm don't have souls," Darth Anarchus said without missing a beat. "Zombies more or less still do. Zombies were once humans. Grimm aren't humans to begin with. Zombies could start as anyone. They could be a total stranger. . . or they could be your friend or family member before they are infected with whatever virus had taken over them."

This silent everyone, except Tyrian and Salem. None of them had really thought of it like that.

"Now then!" the Host stated. "Time to move on."

1) Joel is my favorite overall character in this franchise. Enough said.

I got to admit, I enjoyed writing the Easter Egg to Gravity Falls.

Now next will be the trailer for The Santa Clause! After that will be a few AMVs for Valentine's Day and then another multifandom video with Vengeance by Zack Hemsey.
