Bravo
Some nice explanation of what's going on and a little bit of action. Although, "she concluded that her basement was far enough underground that the noise would not be audible to those above. Unless somepony screamed or made hot, bodacious love on her table..." this is probably going to come up REAL soon.

Hurray for the brave hearted!
I hope after all this misery and death there will be a happy ending... even thought I doubt it...
Nice plot development and all of that mumbo, I haven't found a grammatical error, yet, and it is just the right amount of Dark to be a good story

Happy writing!

Zompony Apocalypse Good

Although I can see Twilight saying fuckasses, I can't see her saying "OI." Seems weird.

Twilight saying OI! FUCKASSES reminds me of something from somewhere but I can see soemone saying that in a zombie appocolypse.
I love it too.

only if they had diamond dogs with them, just dig a tunnel out.

Twilight gets bored and goes outside to save a small child....

Badass Twilight is FUCKING BADASS! Nice there. Good for Twilight going insane and save a filly :D

I like what you did in this chapter to explain what was going on and how it all started, it was well done and didn't stick out like a sore thumb or anything, actually it reminded me of I Am Legend in a way when whatshisface would record his findings and make a log out of it.

Well, we know where Rarity, Applejack, Spike, and Fluttershy are. What about Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie? Also, why haven't they tried digging tunnels underground? There hasn't been a mention about it. I mean the basket system is clever, but I was surprised that Twilight didn't elaborate on the tunnel idea. Scared that the noise would attract The Afflicted I guess?

All in all, a nice chapter with a nice development at the end with Twilight saving the filly. It's nice that she now has some company in that lonely tree house :D. Also, I think that the mention of having to have your leg chopped off to escape becoming affected it going to come up later and I'm not going to like who it happens to :c

Have a good one.

Twilight...you crazy, brave, wonderful pony!

I do wonder though...it says they're attracted to magic....why doesn't Twilight just grab them with her magic and crunch their heads in or toss them away or something...then again, there'd probably be too many to deal with

Jeez, what a story you got yourself here!

Very nice. Please continue. Somehow I can picture one or more ponies getting fed up, grabbing anything they can use as a weapon, running outside and yelling, "Here I am! Come and get me!"

Awesome chapter and a very well written chasing'n'saving scene, congrats man, good job!

Damn this is good, but I agree with V-pony, unless they shoot pure antimagic or something I think a rage mode Twilight would be able to take on quite a few zombies.

I have to admit my adrenaline was indeed going by the time she got into the alleyway, well done.
Those pictures also scared the shit out of me after reading that.

Way to go Twilight! That was both stupid and heroic, but at least you managed to save that filly! The story is definitely starting to tie in to '28 days later' but if the infection as spread by a parasite, that is more understandable; considering it could take over the victims CNS in a matter of seconds (proven in Resident Evil 4 and 5). Really enjoying the story! Continuing to the next chapter!

Wait, i don´t get it. Shouldn´t the Twi who run out to save the filly have a cut in her face as well as red eyes like those infected? Why would the filly trust her to jump down once she sees those eyes?

Actually... Yeah. It takes just a few pounds of pressure on the inner brain to kill someone, so I see why that would work. THEN AGAIN, the magic would attract much more.

"We're fucked. We're totally fucked.

Me: "CELESTIA DAMN IT! I won't shed a manly tear over this!"
Then it was too late.

Also,

Thank... Luna. and OI! FUCKASSES!!

Well, she isn't foaming at the mouth or growling. Also she spoke, I don't thing The Afflicted can speak. At least, let's hope not

One thing Twilight doesn't mention is how the Afflicted know who else is afflicted. How anything gathers information precedes any action it does or does not take.
