Equestria Ninja Halloween

by Jebens1


3. The Haunted Cave

At Canterlot High, out on the soccer field, the Wondercolts, Flash Sentry, Sandalwood, Micro Chips, Lyra & Bonbon, Octavia, Bulk Biceps, and Derpy were learning some dance moves from the Shadowbolts, Sour Sweet, Sugarcoat, Indigo Zap, Lemon Zest, and Sunny Flare.

"Okay, once more, from the top!" Sour announced and they all performed a spectacular dance number. "That was great!"

"We rock!" Indigo Zap declared.

"Thanks for teaching us some awesome dance moves for the Halloween show tomorrow night," Flash said.

"Thanks for letting us be a part of it," Sunny replied.

"No problem, dudette," Sandalwood said.

"It's going to be so epic!" Lemon cheered.

"It sure is!" Derpy agreed.

"I'll say!" Bonbon said.

"YEAAAHH!" Bulk exclaimed.

"Considering all the dance moves we've been practicing, it should be," Sugarcoat stated.

"I for one can't wait for tomorrow!" Indigo said.

"You mean you can't wait to dance with Keno tomorrow, dearie!" Sunny teased, and Indigo playfully nudged her.

"Well, I for one sure can't wait to bust a move!" Micro Chips said.

"And I'm glad the Turtles and all our friends from New York will be joining us," Octavia added.

"Like I said, it's going to be so epic!" Lemon cheered again.

"Yeah, but practice would've been more fun if we had music to practice to," Lyra noted.

"Wasn't DJ-Pon3 suppose to bring the beats?" Micro Chips asked.

Octavia checked her phone. "I sent her a text, telling her to meet us all here, but she hasn't responded?"

"Maybe she got held up in traffic?" Bonbon suggested.

"That's highly unlikey," Sugarcoat said. "The roads are mostly empty at night."

"Then what could be keeping her?" Indigo wondered.

"You don't think she ran into trouble?" Lyra asked, in worry.

"Oh no!" Lemon cried. "What if she got into a wreck or ran into the Purple Nightmares?!"

"Calm down, Lemon!" Sour broke in. "I'm sure she's fine."

"I quite agree," Octavia added. "She probably just got distracted by a noise that sounded like a beat."

At that moment, a car horn sounded and Vinyl Scratch aka DJ-Pon3 drove up in her car.

"Told you," Octavia said. Then she walked up to her friend and asked, "What took you so long? We had to do practice without music."

Vinyl rubbed the back of her neck sheepishly before she raised a finger, telling them she had something to show them. Then she reached into her pocket and held out what looked like a gold coin.

"Whoa!" Everyone said in awe.

"Ooo, shiny!" Derpy said.

"Is that gold?" Sour asked, and Vinyl nodded.

"Where'd you get that?" Sandalwood asked.

Vinyl got out her phone and showed them a picture of a cave.

"You found it by that cave?" Flash asked.

"Hmm, that's very perplexing?" Micro Chips said.

Lemon gasped. "What if that coin's just one piece from a pirate's treasure?!"

"Pirate treasure?!" Bulk asked in excitement.

"That's ridiculous," Sunny rebuffed. "There were no pirates in Canterlot."

"Well, maybe it's not a pirate's treasure," Sugarcoat spoke up.

"Huh?" Everyone said.

"What do mean?" Flash asked.

"Well, I heard an old legend about that cave once that does mention a treasure," Sugarcoat began. "Years ago, a gangster called Poker Face robbed an entire bank vault and buried it inside that cave. But the police captured him before he could return for it. Now they say his ghost haunts the cave, guarding his loot. Many who've ever tried to find it are met with a fate so horrifying and horrendous that it can't be described! Or so I was told?"

Bulk and Derpy held onto each other in fright, while Indigo just said, "Wicked!"

“Bull- oni! There’s no treasure and there’s no Poker Face!” Sour Sweet scoffed.

“Well Vinyl had to have found that somewhere,” Octavia pointed to vinyls bracelet.

“And that’s your answer for everything, Sour,” Sugarcoat pointed out.

“Do you think we should check it out?” Flash suggested.

“Might be dangerous,” Sandalwood stated.

“And why would that stop a couple high school students who don’t know any better?” Lemon grinned.

"Because we DO know better," Sour stated.

"Unlike some of us," Sunny added, looking at Indigo and Lemon.

Indigo rolled her eyes. "Come on! It'll be fun! And when was the last time we had an adventure?"

Sugarcoat listed off, "The Friendship Games, making that dance video, our class trip to New York, the pet show, the Friendship cruise."

"I ment recently," Indigo frowned.

"Well, I'm totally in!" Lemon said.

"Me too!" Bonbon chimed in.

"And me," Lyra added.

"I'm for a treasure hunt," Sandalwood said.

"And I am curious to find out if there is a treasure," Micro Chips stated.

"I would like to find out as well," Octavia said, and Vinyl gave a thumbs up, signalling that she was onboard with the idea too.

"But what if there's a ghost?! Derpy asked in worry.

"I'm scared of ghosts!" Bulk added, fearfully.

"Hey, don't worry, guys," Flash eased them. "I'm sure we won't run into any ghosts."

"And even if we do run into something, we've got our ninja training," Lemon put in.

"And I'm pretty curious myself," Sugarcoat admitted.

Everyone looked at Sour and Sunny, while the two Shadowbolts' eyes darted left and right.

"You've gotta be kidding?" Sunny said.

"You do know what they say about curiosity?" Sour noted.

"But it's not a sin," Indigo said. "Don't you wanna find out if the treasure is real?"

"You know you want to," Lemon tempted.

Sour and Sunny looked at each other before they had looks of reluctance

"I guess I'm a bit curious to what we might find," Sunny admitted.

Sour sighed. "Fine, we're in."

"Yeah!" Indigo and Lemon cheered.

"But this better not be a waste of our time," Sunny warned.

"Oh, I have a feeling it won't be," Indigo assured, as they all left the soccer field.

But what no one knew, was that watching them from under the bleachers were Trixie, Snips, and Snails.

"A haunted cave with a treasure hmm?" Trixie said to herself. "Snips, Snails, are you two thinking what I'm thinking?"

"We should go find the treasure!" Snips answered.

"Yeah!" Snails added.

"Actually, I was thinking of something more, spookifying..." Trixie gave a mischievous smirk.


Later, the Wondercolts and Shadowbolts were walking through the forest. By now, it had gotten dark and a thick fog blanked the trees.

“Wouldn’t you know it? It had to be foggy during our little treasure hunt,” Sour complained.

Sugarcoat just rolled her eyes. “It’s just condensed water that-“

“Like I care!” Sour interrupted. “It’s depressing! And it’s ruining my hair!”

Octavia then turned to Vinyl. “Are you sure this is the spot, Vinyl?”

Vinyl replied by nodding her head before scratching her noggin as if to say ‘I think so?’

“I’m getting some nerve racking vibes about this,” Sandalwood looked around.

“Maybe we’re getting close!” Lemon suggested.

Sunny looked around. “I don’t see anything that looks like buried treasure.”

“Maybe it’s in there,” Everyone looked to where Flash was pointing to. It was a cave and there were multiple Keep Out signs all around it.

“That could be it,” Micro Chips blinked.

Just then, Indigo perked up and looked around.

“You alright, Indigo?” Sour asked.

“I could’ve sworn I just heard Pinkie and Mikey just now,” Indigo kept looking around. “You guys heard something?”

Everyone looked around but didn’t see or hear anything. Or see the two ride past them on a horse carriage in the distance.

“Cmon! Let’s go in!” Lemon gleamed.

But after they all went in, a group of shadowy figures walked up to the cave, carrying bags.

Using the lights from their phones, the Wondercolts and Shadowbolts made their way through the cave, traveling down a long tunnel.

As they walked, Bonbon noticed Lyra was dropping some jellybeans, one at a time, from a bag.

"Lyra, what are you doing?" She asked.

"I'm making a trail so we can find our way back," Lyra answered.

"Great thinking," Bonbon smiled.

Soon, they all came to a fork in the tunnel with two passageways.

"Which way, should we go?" Flash inquired.

“Maybe we should split up?” Sandalwood suggested.

“We’re going after some supposedly dead guy’s loot and you want us to split up?” Sugarcoat asked, rhetorically.

Sandalwood just shrugged. “Well it sounded like a good idea to me.”

Vinyl looked over to the right tunnel and saw something shiny and went to pick it up. Octavia noticed this.

“Everyone! Vinyl found something!” Everyone looked to see Vinyl pick up another coin.

“Okay. That could not be coincidence!” Lemon pointed out.

“Agreed,” Lyra added.

“I guess we go right,” Bonbon said.

And so they went right. As they walked further into the tunnel, Derpy heard a gurgling noise close by.

"What's that?!" She ask, shaking.

"Uh, my stomach," Bulk said, patting his belly. "I'm hungry."

Wanting to help, Derpy thought about to do when she noticed Lyra's jellybean trail. "Look jellybeans!"

"I love jellybeans!" Bulk picked one up and ate it. But then he paused. "Wait, I think these jellybeans are important for something?"

"Like what?" Derpy asked.

"I have no idea?" Bulk shrugged. "Maybe if we eat more, we'll find out."

"Okay," Derpy said, and they both started to eat the jellybeans as they followed the others.

They continued to track into the tunnel.

“Are we finding anything or are we just sight seeing?” Sunny sighed.

“Maybe that mumbo jumbo about Poker Face was a dud.” Lemon said bummed out.

"Or maybe it's possible that someone else found the treasure?" Micro Chips suggested.

"That does seem likely," Sugarcoat agreed.

"But if someone did find the loot, then wouldn't it be on the news or something?" Bonbon asked.

"That's also likely."

"Then what about Poker Face?" Flash inquired.

"Maybe Poker Face is just dead, like no ghost?" Lyra suggested. "And his bones are laying around somewhere; rotting!"

Octavia shuddered. "Oh that's a comforting thought!"

"I agree!" Sunny added, in disgust.

Suddenly, something in the shadows ran past them. They all turned toward the sound.

"What was that?" Lemon asked.

"I'm getting those spooky vibes again!" Sandalwood said.

“It’s-it’s the ghost!” Indigo shuddered pretending not to be scared.

The shadows ran past them again as Lyra jumped into Bonbons arms and the two girls screamed.

“Whoa!” Flash gasped as a shadow missed him.

However, Sour and Sunny didn’t looked enthused.

“Oh please!” Sour rolled her eyes.

“There is no-,” Sunny started, but when the two turned around.

“Boo, see? Boo!”

There, right in front of them was a figure in a tattered trench coat and fedora.

“Poker Face!” The two screamed followed by the others.

Indigo then shouted in terror. “I love you, Keno! Wherever you are!”

Suddenly, the place turned silent. Indigo blushed as everyone looked at her deadpanned.

“I so gotta get a boyfriend,” Lemon whispered to Sunny.

Then, Poker Face tripped over his trench coat and fell over, splitting in two. The group looked closely at the two parts.

“Snips?” Flash raised a brow.

“Snails?” Sandalwood added.

“Hi guys,” Snails waved cluelessly.

“You were poker face?” Lyra gasped.

Just then, laughter was heard nearby. Everyone looked to see Trixie coming out from behind some rocks.

“That’s right! You were all once again fooled by the great and powerful Trixie!” She said between laughs.

“Why you little!” Sour was about to pounce on Trixie only for Vinyl to hold her back.

“Trixie what is going on here?” Octavia demanded.

"Well, I overheard about you're little treasure hunt and decided to make it more interesting, so to speak," Trixie explained with a smirk.

"Not cool, Trixie," Sandalwood crossed his arms. "So not cool."

Everyone else voiced their annoyance at that. But then, Lyra noticed that Bulk and Derpy were holding some jellybeans.

"Uh, guys... where did you get those jellybeans?" She asked in worry.

"We found them on the ground," Bulk answered.

"In a straight line," Derpy added.

"Those jellybeans were there so we could find our way out!" Lyra exclaimed. "We're lost!"

"What?!" Flash said in disbelief.

"We're lost?!" Lemon echoed.

"I'm sorry," Bulk apologized. "Nobody told me? And I was hungry!"

"And that makes it okay?!" Sunny snapped.

“Well in his defense, you could’ve told us about the jellybeans!” Derpy cried.

“Didn’t your mom tell you not to eat off the floor!” Bonbon snapped back.

Everyone argued back and forth until Flash had enough.

“ENOUGH! Look at us! Arguing is not gonna bring the exit to us!”

Everyone realized that the teen was right and calmed down.

“Sorry I ate the jellybeans,” Bulk apologized.

“I’m sorry too,” Lyra nodded.

After everyone apologized, Sour spoke. “Flash is right about one thing. We need to find the exit.”

Trixie cleared her throat. “I know where the exit is!”

Everyone looked at each other then Sandalwood said. “Okay, Trixie. Lead the way.”


So everyone followed the magician girl as she led them through the tunnel. But as they walked, everyone noticed that the further they went, the less familiar everything looked.

"I don't remember coming this way?" Snail finally spoke up.

"Huh, yeah, me neither?" Snips agreed.

"Trixie, are you sure you know the way out?" Octavia asked.

"Of course Trixie knows the way out," Trixie responded. "I think?"

“In that case, we’re really lost,” Sour whispered to Sugarcoat who nodded in agreement.

“I heard that!” Trixie called out. "The Great and Powerful Trixie always knows where she- whaah!" As Trixie leaned against a wall, it suddenly sunk in and opened up, causing Trixie to fall through a doorway.

"You okay, Trixie?" Indigo asked, as everyone stepped in and gasped at what they saw. Trixie sat up and looked around before her mouth dropped open.

Right before them were piles and piles of Gold coins.

"The treasure!" Lemon cried. "It's not a dud!"

"Finder's keepers!" Trixie exclaimed.

“I'm wealthy!” Sour cheered.

“Nice to be financially secured,” Sugarcoat smiled.

“I can buy that new guitar I had my eye on!” Flash gleamed.

As she cheered along, Octavia then noticed Vinyl just sitting there.

“Is something wrong, Vinyl?” She asked.

Vinyl responded by showing her one of the coins. Octavia saw that the coins were marked.

“oh my goodness! They’re counterfeit!” She gasped.

“What?” Everyone cried.

“She’s right! Look!” Snips held up another coin with the same markings.

“There goes my guitar,” Flash grumbled.

“Maybe there’s chocolate inside!” Snails cheered. He bit a coin only to whence. “Nope. No chocolate here.”

“Really?” Indigo smirked.

"So, there really is no treasure?" Lyra asked.

"Looks like it," Bonbon said.

"Aww!" Everyone said in disappointment.

"Although, this does create a new mystery," Micro Chips noted. "Who made all these?"

"Hey, yeah," Lemon agreed. "If these are all counterfeit, then who's the counterfeiter?"

"Uh, guys," Bulk spoke up. "I hear something?"

Everyone else listened and sure enough they heard multiple footsteps coming from another entrance.

"It must be the counterfeiter!" Sunny said.

"Or the ghost!" Derpy shivered.

"What'll we do?" Sandalwood asked.

"Hide!" Trixie exclaimed, and dove into one of the piles.

"Bad place to hide, Trixie!" Sunny noted.

But before anyone could pull her out, the footsteps grew louder and everyone ran and hid behind some rocks. Then walking into the cavern, carrying bags, were non other than Night Terror and the Purple Nightmares.

"The Purple Nightmares!" Flash gasped quietly.

"And I thought The Purple Dragons were annoying," Indigo whispered before Sour shushed her.

Night Terror chuckled. "What a deal! We're gonna a make a bundle out of our stolen marked coins!"

"But boss, wouldn't the coins being marked make'em counterfeit?" Crunch Bar asked.

"They'd think that, Crunch Bar, but they'll still be profitable. With the right.... persuasion," Night Terror smirked.

After dumping a bag of coins in a pile, Clubs looked down and saw one of Trixie's magic cards and picked it up. "Okay, who left one of the card decks?"

"Let me see that." Clubs gave the card to Night Terror who looked closely at it. "This isn't your everyday playing card. This is a magic card!"

"What does that mean?" Stryke asked.

"Either one of you studying magic or we have company!" Night Terror glared.

"Uh oh!" Bulk sweated.

"Spread out and search the place!" Night Terror ordered. "And houler if you find anything, or anyone!"

Then the Nightmares took out their weapons and Night Terror drew his sword and they began to search the cavern. The Wondercolts and Shadowbolts stayed silent, not daring to make a sound. Snips and Snails peeked out and were quickly pulled back by the others as Night Terror passed by their hiding place.

"Come out, come out," the Nightmare lead coaxed. "We won't hurt you... much!"

"What are we gonna do?!" Sunny whispered.

"What would the Turtles or Rainbooms do in a situation like this?" Micro Chips asked.

Flash peeked out and saw Riff was close by and got an idea. "Follow my lead..."

Riff was still looking for any sign of an intruder, when he stopped and sniffed. "Hey, I smell jellybeans," He followed the smell to where the Wondercolts and Shadowbolts were hiding and before he could shout, Flash grabbed him and dragged him behind the rocks, where the nightmare was quickly knocked out when Bulk pounded him in the head.

“Ya hear that?” Crunch Bar asked Club.

“Yeah. I think Riff went over there,” Clubs said.

When they headed over to Riffs location, Sandalwood crept up to Clubs and dragged him to a corner covering his mouth.

“Hey, Riff!” Crunch Bar called with no answer. She went behind a coin pile and saw Derpy smile at her. “What the-?” Before she could finish, she was tackled and knocked out by Lemon and Micro Chips.

Stryke was searching close to where Trixie was hiding, when the magician girl suddenly sneezed.

Stryke perked up at the noise. "What was that?"

Trixie clamped her mouth shut, but Stryke looked at the pile and grinned. "Anyone home?" She stalked toward the pile, brandishing her crowbar.

Trixie began to panic, wondering what she could do, when Stryke felt someone tap her on the shoulder. Then she turned around and was punched in the face by Sunny Flare, knocking her out.

"Like I said, bad hiding place, Trixie," she remarked and Trixie frowned.

Pierce was looking around when she noticed the other Nightmares were quiet and went behind a rock.

“Stryke? Crowbar?”

Suddenly, something just narrowly missed her head. She looked Down seeing it was a ninja flute.

“What the-?” But before Pierce could pick it up, she was tackled by Bonbon. The teen clamped the gangster's mouth before she could shout. Then, Lyra came running out of the shadows and knocked Pierce out cold, but not before Bonbon flipped off.

As they looked at the knocked out Nightmare, Bonbon asked Lyra, “Did we ever thanked Mondo for teaching us that maneuver?”

Lyra thought for a moment, “Don’t think we did.”

“Remind me to,” Bonbon noted as the two besties hurried to regroup with the others.

Switchblade was digging in one of the piles, when he heard two voices shout, "Freeze!" He whipped around to see Snips and Snails standing behind him while holding their sparing sticks.

"Prepare for a butt kicking!" Snips declared.

"Cause we know ninjisu!" Snails added.

Then the two began swinging their sticks around while making karate grunts. Switchblade just stood there and laughed at them. That is, until they stepped on some coins and began slipping and sliding straight toward Switchblade, accidentally whacking him all over until Snails hit him in the gut, making him slump to the ground unconscious.

The pair looked at each other, having no idea what they just did, before they struck a karate pose and exclaimed, "Hi-yah!"

Soon, the group regrouped behind a pile of coins.

“Did we get them all?” Flash asked.

“All except for their head honcho,” Lemon pointed out.

Sure enough, Night Terror was not only looking for the intruders but his gang as well.

“Where are you guys?” He bellowed.

“So now what?” Sour whispered.

"We've got to take out Night Terror somehow?" Flash said.

"Easier said then done," Micro Chips noted. "Just look at the size of him."

"Even I have trouble with him," Bulk said.

Sugarcoat glanced up at the coin pile. "Hmm? This coin pile doesn't look very balanced," she stated to herself. Then she said, "I think I've got an idea..."

"Crunch Bar?! Riff?!" Night Terror called out. "Anyone! If this is some kind of joke-huh?" He heard a noise and turned around just as the coin pile was tipping over right on him. "Aaahhh!" He yelled as he was buried.

Everyone cheered at what appeared to have been success.

“Nice move, Sugarcoat!” Sour smiled.

“Naturally,” Sugarcoat grinned.

“We all did good,” Flash high fived Lemon.

“Yeah!” Shouted Bulk.

Trixie walked up to where Night Terror was buried and started to taunt him. “Not so tough now! Are you?”

Suddenly, bursting from the pile was a very steamed Night Terror, taking the group by surprise.

“Care to repeat that?” He growled at Trixie.

Trixies only response was shrieking and running behind Derpy.

“Well, that was a bust,” Sugarcoat deadpanned.

“Run?” Sour looked to Flash.

“Run!” Flash shouted before the group ran screaming.

“GET BACK HERE!” Night Terror roared as he got out of the coins and went after them.

The rest of the gang woke up from their knockouts and joined the chase. The Wondercolts and Shadowbolts dashed through the tunnels, the Nightmares not far behind.

"So where was that way out again, Trixie?" Octavia asked frantically.

"I have no idea!" Trixie confessed. "I forgot!"

"I knew it," Sugarcoat said, bluntly.

"Oh, we remember the way out!" Snails spoke up.

"Yeah," Snips chimed in. " Follow us!" Then he and Snails ran ahead of the group.

Everyone looked at each other and knowing that they didn't have time to question, followed after the two.

Snips and Snails led them down another tunnel and when they rounded a bend, Micro Chips called, "I see moonlight, they were right!"

"Told ya!" Snips and Snails crooned.

"Who knew?" Sour shrugged.

Soon the group raced out of the cave and into a forest with the Nightmares still chasing them. The thugs chased them into some bushes before they noticed that the Wondercolts and Shadowbolts had disappeared.

“Where are they?” Clubs glared.

Little did They know was that they all hid up in the trees. Snips almost fell from his branch, but luckily Bulk grabbed him just in time and put him on a sturdier branch.

“Find them!” Night Terror demanded. “Doesn’t matter if alive or dead! We can’t have any witnesses!”

After they left, Micro Chips spoke up, “What are we gonna do now?”

“No doubt those guys are gonna keep hunting us!” Indigo added.

“Well, as Casey would say, let’s take em down!” Flash stated.

“And how pray tell do we do that?” Trixie huffed.

“I say we tackle them!” Sour cracked her knuckles.

“Well I have been improvising so far,” Flash shrugged.

Meanwhile, Night Terror and the Nightmares were once again searching for the high schoolers.

"Stay alert!" Night Terror ordered. "Those guys won't get the drop on us again!"

Suddenly, they saw a bright light hit the ground not too far off from where they stood.

"What the hay was that?" Stryke asked.

Then before anyone could ask anything else, they heard a scream and Bonesteel came crashing out of the bushes, bumped off of Night Terror, and fell on his back. The gang leader grabbed him by his coat and held him off the ground.

"Hey, what's the big idea?" Night Terror demanded.

"Let me go!" Bonesteel struggled. "I gotta get away!"

"From what?"

"Zombies!" Bonesteel cried.

The Nightmares stared for a moment before they burst out laughing.

"Zombies? How dumb do you think we look?" Night Terror asked, rhetorically.

"Hey, knuckleheads!" Came Indigo's voice. "Up here!"

The Nightmares turned around and looked up a hill just in time to see Bulk rolling down it like a bowling ball straight towards them. The Nightmares screamed as Bulk knocked them down like bowling pins.

From the top of the hill, the Wondercolts and Shadowbolts cheered. The Nightmares and Bonesteel layed in a heap as Bulk triumphantly stood up and yelled, "Booyahkasha!"

“Few! I have been meaning to let out tension since this adventure started,” Sour breathed.

“Did we get them all?” Octavia asked.

Vinyl counted the unconscious Purple Nightmares and thumbed up. Then, Lemon noticed the new face.

“Hey I don’t remember the dude in the trench coat!”

“He also had this,” Indigo pointed to the crossbow.

When Bulk flipped him to his front, Sandalwood gasped, “I know who that is!”

“You do?” Flash asked.

“That’s Simon Bonesteel! He’s a lunatic who hunts endangered species!”

“How dreadful!” Octavia covered her mouth.

“Fluttershy told me about him. She and the girls along with the ninjas faced him with Team Shine and another group. The Digi- something.”

“What’s he doing around here anyway?” Micro Chips scratched his head.

“Well, the Cautious and Sneaky Trixie is not waiting to find out!” Trixie began to walk away.

Suddenly they heard a series of moans coming from the fog causing Trixie to stop dead in her tracks.

"Uh, please tell me those moans are just some kind of wild animal and not what I think it is?" She asked in fear.

Right after she said that, a hoard of zombies emerged from the fog.

"Nope!" Sunny squeaked.

“Where’d they come from?!” Flash gasped.

“Maybe they’re wearing costumes?” Snips hoped as Snails tried to pull a zombies supposed mask off. But He pulled the zombies head off and screamed and threw the head.

“Nope. They’re real!” He hurried and hugged Snips as the zombie put his head back on.

“What do we do now?” Shivered Octavia as the zombies crept closer.

“Everybody,” Indigo looked ready to fight. Only to start running as everyone else was right behind her.

“RUN!” They all cried.

As they ran, Flash saw a house that seemed to appear out of the fog. "This way, we can hide in that old house!"

They all dashed toward the house and pounded on the door.

"Help! Help!! Help!!!" Trixie screamed.

The door opened and there stood a tall Chinese man. It was Jung. "Yes?" He asked.

“You gotta help us, mister!” Bulk begged.

“There’s a whole bunch of zombies trying to kill us!” Snips cried.

Sunny looked deadpanned at him. “Seriously? like he’s gonna believe us?”

Trixie scoffed. “Alright then. There are criminals after us. Whatever it takes.”

“Oh I believe you,” Smirked Jung. “And believe me. The zombies or the criminals are the least of your problems.” Then, he then transformed with pale skin and sharp fangs, shocking the group.

“Yikes! It’s Frankula!” Snips gasped.

“No!! It’s Drakenstien!” Cried Snails.

“It’s a vampire!” Sugarcoat corrected.

"Run again!" Indigo cried, and they all ran off.

"Haunted cave? Zombies? And now vampires?!" Sour exclaimed.

"Wow, these are really one of those nights, huh?" Lemon noted.

Suddenly, a large black dog blocked them off before it turned into Jung. Then he lunged forward and pinned Trixie to a tree.

"No, please!" Trixie begged. "You don't want to drink my blood, it's chicken blood!"

"I don't want your blood, girl!" Jung said. "I want your qi!"

"Wait, my what?" Trixie asked.

"Your life force, Trixie!" Sugarcoat stated.

Trixie blinked before she screamed in terror.

"Let her go!" Flash ran forward only for Jung to smack him away.

"Do not interfere!" Jung growled. "For all of you will soon share her fate!"

Then out of nowhere, a zombie tackled Jung, knocking him off Trixie, who quickly ran over to the group. Then more zombies came out of the trees and piled on the vampire.

“Is it just me or are those zombies trying to help us?” Lemon raised a brow.

“Oh sure! After they eat our brains!” Trixie said snotty.

“Something doesn’t feel right?” Sandalwood scratched his chin.

“Either way, this is our chance to get away!” Flash pointed out.

As the Wondercolts and Shadowbolts ran off, Jung let out a yowl that echoed throughout the night.
