"Do not get ahead of yourself, Lady." Zeta replied. "I would only be doing this to keep our group together, and so that no one leaves."

The stallion noticed her look behind him at another pony who was apparently shaking, and looked back too. The first thing being noticed was how unstable Racer looked when standing. Clearly he needed some attention and walked over to be used as a support.

"I would say the same thing as her."

Lady gave the stallion an apologetic look, "Sorry... Won't happen again, promise." She assured him. She then returned her attention to Racer.

 

@ DerpyHasClass

Lady didn't entirely believe the explenation she had been given but figured it was best not to question him. "If you say so..."

Grand awoke from her short nap and left out into the main area. everyone still seemed to be chatting. no matter, she needed to go to Ponyville as soon as possible. " Goodbye everyone, I am sure we will cross paths again "she said, heading out in the direction of ponyville

As he was running off to Ponyville, Stephan noticed Grand Finale going in the same direction as he was. He slowed down and was running beside her. "You're one of the survivors from that group. Why are you heading to Ponyville?" Stephan asked in a serious tone. (Please refer to my character as The Ghost when you're talking to him. His identity is secret.)

Josh hoped off the tree and used his wings to make the landing easy. He then walked over to grand "I said I would go with you didn't I?" And when I say something I mean it so I stuck to ya as far as ponyville now. U should get be next time u try to leave" josh smiled

Lady watched as a mare awoke from slumber and announced her departure. Lady bid her a cheery farewell and wached as he began to wlkway. /Ponyville...?/ She had always heard of the place but never actually visited it. The stories of the little town she used to hear about were so interesting. She had always wanted to go but never had the chance. But she had a group now... She had to stick with them.

Her dreams got the best of her, "I'm sorry, I'd like to go whith them." And with that she rushed after the three departing ponies. "Umm, excuse me!" She called as she made it to their side. "I was wondering if I could tag along?" She he a friendly smile plasted upon/her pale white face.

He heard the word Ponyville and immediately perked his head in the direction it was spoken. From the looks of it, a few ponies were headed in that direction, but Zeta knew how dangerous it was.

Murmuring to himself to remember when it happened, having to abandon everything (which was nothing) and make a run to Trottingham.

"Ponyville.. That was one of the first towns to get infected, who knows how it has turned up now."

Stephan (Or The Ghost in this case) Looked behind and saw Lady running behind them. He smiled and nodded. "If you can handle yourself, I don't see why not." The Ghost pulled Lady up to the front with him and Grand. They were now all running together. Stephan sort of felt like he had his family again.

You told me there were survivors there, and thats where I grew up. My family may be alive, and I won't be able to continue without knowing what happened to them" she said seriously. she is normally a happy and cheerful pony, but her family was nowhere to be seen

"im terribly sorry, I got ahead of myself. I do appreciate you joining me, I didnt want to interrupt any of the other ponies, they seemed to be enjoying themselves, and its not very often that we enjoy ourselves anymore" she said

[Guest]

"don't be sorry" Josh said as he flew directly beside the three ponies "I like to sound of going to this ponyville and I also like stretching my wings it's been a whirl since I have flown properly" Which was true josh relished in the feeling of the wind flowing through his wings again

[Dark_Princess_Luna 34]

Lady smiled as she was pulled to the front and they all broke into a run together. /Maybe these ponies will accept me as their friend...?/ She hoped, her mind raced with excitement and no longer fear. After all, you have a better chance of surviving when you travel in a group. On her own she had a slim chance of surviving.

[Timeless Toaster 6]

(Alright, it's about time I started RPing on this site!)

 

In an alley way off of Mane and 2nd street, a dark lump laid amongst the trash. The blue moonlight, once obstructed by the dark clouds, now shinned brightly on the dead city. The moonlight poured gently into the alley way and illuminated a toffee colored pony. A large and bloody gash sat along the side of his head, along the temple. Slowly, he began to twitch; he was waking up. Soon, his blue eyes opened lazily and he groaned a bit. A couple of sparks flew from his back, at the base of his mechanical wings. He turned his head to the wing base and saw busted hydrolics and tattered wiring.

 

"Looks like I'm not flying any time soon..." He mumbled. Shaking his head, he suddenly felt dizzy. Placing a hoof to the side of his head, he withdrew it to see blood. Looking around, he saw the window ledge of which he smacked his head into during his crash landing. Then another thing dawned on him; he was inside the Danger Zone. Looking around, he found a saddle bag nearby and rushed over to it. Putting it on, the pegasus cautiously walked out into the street and looked around.

The Ghost nodded. "I understand. I lost my family to the hoard  a year ago. That is why I take on this persona. I will help you find your family in Ponyville. I'm sure you're very worried about them. Now let's get going!" The Ghost begins to run a little bit faster.

A short time later, Zeta quickly gathered his memories of what he saw just now.

 

We we're at a small campfire, a few new ponies walked in suddenly and more came out in the end. One of which was our cook, unless she wasn't the one with the food..

 

This could turn out bad for the main group, considering food was a top priority in this matter. Still there had to be some losses and detours to try and figure another way to survive.

Zeta soon walked back unto his little saddlebag and pulled out his mid-size sheathed knife, twirling it around a bit before putting the small belt loop around his hoof to attach it. From there on, he turned to the rest of the group.

"It is getting late, so get some sleep. I will watch over the camp for the night, and there is no need for switching shifts."

Nocturne awoke to a peculiar sight... two new people had appeared and two people had disappeared.

"Zeta... who are these people and where in Equestria did Grand Finale and Josh head off too?"

 

(I got rather caught up in playing GTA4 which is why I haven't been posting )

Thunder Roller had dozed off while staring up at the sky she awoke to find 2 new ponies in there group and everyone talking about something with Ponyville. Grand Finale and Josh were missing.

Thunder Roller rubbed her eyes and said "Would someone like to explain to me what the buck is going on?"

Fire Horn debated whether or not he would follow the two ponies to Ponyville, it was his... he shook the thoughts from his mind, it would remind him of what happened there at the beginning of the outbreak. Fire Horn had a book levitated in front of him, it was about cutie marks, it was quite worn out.

[Milk Wave 454]

(( Hey you guys, I highly advise you to read my post in the OOC topic, seeming that you missed Lady following them also which makes 3 ponies gone and not 2 ))

"A couple ponies stumbled into our campsite while you were sleeping. They were on their way to Ponyville, and a few from our group joined."

He gave a little sigh of depression, looking a little less neutral then before. "But I don't think they know, how it looks like now."

After not doing anything for a while, Zycrin decided to go for a quick look at the camp of targets. On a hill about 100 meters away from the camp site. He observed the camp to discover that grand and josh where not there. He could only think that they had gone to ponyville. After a closer look he noticed fire horn was levitating a book in front of him. Jusyt for a bit of target practice, he shot an arrow that hit the book, going straight through the book and sticking into it. The unexpected event, suprised fire horn.

[Super Derpy 535]

@Funny Snout

"Thanks for the info"

 

If my family is still alive they would be in Ponyville. I know what I have to do.

 

"Everyone listen! I'm going to Ponyville as well. If my family is alive they would be there and I am not going to sit here wondering if they are. I hope I will see you all again one day."

 

With that Thunder Roller grabbed her bag of food and other supplies and burst off into the night sky.

[Milk Wave 454]

Zeta was a little surprised at how quickly the group disbanded just from mentioning Ponyville. Now there was 6 of them, and it wasn't getting any better.

The arrow Zycrin shot had got his attention like a ninja. Immediately he pulled out his knife and observed the area for any more arrows to come. And from what just happened, it looks to be like somepony is spying on them, or even worse. A lot of ponies spying on them.

This put Zeta into a full on defense, going back to his sattlebag and pulling out a roll of parts. Quickly he assembled them together, which formed into a nice sized hunting sniper with 2 different scopes.

It only took him a minute or two to get set up, and quickly selected the Infared scope to find where the pony who shot that arrow was.

[Child Of Darkness 285]

Zycrin spotted the sniper rifle and decided to fire another arrow, this one was directed at zeta himself, with one quick draw of the bow and fire of an arrow, Zycrin had fired another arrow, Hitting zeta directly in the shoulder, causing him to drop the rifle. With this, Zycrin dropped of the hill and ran before any pony could even see him.

((Fire Horn had no weapon.))

 

Fire Horn just stared at the  book for several seconds, shock became anger. The book had sentimental value, it was a present from... her. Fire Horn threw the book to the floor, the spine was ruined and the pages were a mess. Suddenly, an arrow hit Zeta in the shoulder, causing him to drop the rifle, running over to him, he picked a piece of cloth from his saddlebag, pulled out the arrow and covered the wound with the cloth.

"Are you alright?" Fire Horn asked.

[Milk Wave 454]

Zeta saw the other arrow fire directly at him, but from how dark it was it was too late to try and evade it. It entered his shoulder with a nice penetration, but it only lagged him a bit. Quickly he aimed the rifle up to where he saw the arrow come from and notice a pony sneak away behind the hilltop and disappear from his sight.

 

The next thing he noticed was Fire Horn helping his wound out. It only seemed like he forgot about it just now but got the feeling back when it was ripped from his body.

He prevented him from yelling a bit, then nodded at Fire once the pain went away.

Upon arriving in Ponyville, The Ghost noticed a complete army of undead ponies wandering around. They were breaking down the doors of unsturdy shacks and trying to eat the ponies alive. When he saw this, The Ghost suddenly covered himself with a red aura and began killing undead at incredible speeds.

[Child Of Darkness 285]

I'm sorry for the bit of confusion before, the arrow was directed at zeta not fire horn, sorry if this caused confusion and I did not know that I was breaking rule 1, so ok I will not be as hard to hit and see. Again sorry for the confusion and I am sorry for breaking rule 1.
