Frederic Horseshoepin is an obscure background pony who appeared in one episode and was instantly overshadowed by the pony next to him. Usually he's reserved to het shippers who are sick of the Octavia/Vinyl pairing.

I think that they have a good point. He's pretty cool, and deserves more love. And in this shipping anthology, I make sure that he's gonna get a whole lot of love.

Includes "What I Did For Love," a possible sequel to "This Nearly Was Mine."

The time has come. I am to go soon. However, just before I leave, there is a pony who desires to speak with me. We share a few words and she begins to cry. I tell her what is the point if I'm only a pony in the background? Apparently, to her it's so much more than just that.

What happens when you have a miserable life with no motivation? One might say you should give up, others believe that you will accomplish nothing no matter how hard you try. What if you were given a chance, a chance to make everything better. Would you waste the opportunity...or would you finally make your living hell a dream come true.

Blitz knows that feeling of worthlessness all too much. He decides to make a decision that changes his life forever. However, he won't be entering this new life alone. He'll make a couple friends along the way, helping or hindering him at times. But...are these ponies who they say they are?

Each one has a story of their own to tell, some more eluded than others. Can Blitz really trust their word, or are lies being made to hide dangerous secrets. Will kept secrets be holding true evil within them? Truth is, there is evil lurking around in Equestria. But, it comes in a form nopony would have expected.

Join Blitz and co as their stories unfold in the wonderful world of Equestria. It always starts so innocently...

Nothing is known of It's background. There are only stories and legends, most of them apocryphal, passed down through the ages. In truth, It is a mystery for whom the only true biography is description: It is a universal force, a consumer of souls. It is a being of the void, at times corporeal, other times ethereal. A beast between the planes. It is said that even the Great Equalizer fears Der Grosspony; the Tall Pony.

A/N: This is a zombie fic. This is not a gore fic. For the first few chapters I will be constructing new relationships and backgrounds between ponies, giving the first section a light hearted feel I hope to be typical of the MLP universe. However, after that, the light heartedness will cease and ponies will die. Not just nameless background ponies, but main characters. You have been warned.
