And here it is! Months in the making! I started writing this beast in May, but with an entirely different idea. I wanted a chapter to focus on the relationships of the ponies, as is evident with the first half. But as time went on, I lost interest. I didn't want to write this chapter. I wanted to skip ahead to the next member of the Mane-6. Which should be pretty soon.
But anyway, I lost interest. I planned on ending the story here. Post my plot outline and call it a day. But, thanks to tow people, I didn't give up. Although, you can tell from the writing I really didn't want to work on it for a bit. The part that brought me back is the sniper character. I came up with her idea in July while pushing carts at the grocery store I work at as a summer job. I love it so. I came up with her and fell in love instantly. You'll see why.
But here it is as I promised! Not the best, but it's decent. Adds to the story and sets up some important parts!
So leave a comment, like, fave, whatever. And share this story with your friends! I want more people to read this. Get everypony you know to read this story. Spread the zombie/ pony fun! LETS DO THIS.
*Fun fact: the part where Valor tries to talk Pinkie out of telling everyone was originally going to be interrupted by Dark Lightning and Rainbow Dash snickering. They were going to joke around about something... sexual. About how they thought Pinkie Pie and Valor banged or something. And that's what Pinkie wanted to talk about. but valor was embarrassed or whatnot. I wish I kept that part as an extra. I wanted to see how that all played out...
This chapter is dedicated to Bookworm and professorriversong. You two are amazing. Bookworm, you are the reason I write. It's amazing knowing how much someone likes my stories. Thank you! And Prof. River Song, you've edited for me for months and put up with me in more ways than I can imagine.
That pinkie telling everything moment reminded me of The Walking Dead.
Because this story isn't based off of it or anything
Anyways, I waited SO long. I mean, SO LONG for this. Is it actually going to be worked on now or is it going to be another half year before another update?
1540238 I already started the next two chapters. I know you all waited a long time. And I'm sorry. There will be a small wait for the next chapter because writing here in Germany just... feels wrong. I can't place it. But there will be more chapters and much more frequently than this last wait. I PINKIE PROMISE.
1540238 And this story is based on it only in name. And a bit of the beginning. The first chapter was from the comic books. After that, I've pretty much made myself. Like a boss. A bored, bored boss.
1540563 Ewww that's just NASTY. Although I do like Michonne. And spoilers! But I noticed you just favorited my story. You didn't have it faved before? My heart! She is broke!
1588104 1) Confession. I HAVENT SEEN THE NEW SEASON OF WALKING DEAD. THEY KILL T-DOG?!?!!?? OH GOD NO. Please noooooooooooo 2) If you drew a comic version I would love you FOREVER. This would be so much better as a comic! I didn't even describe Valor much as a pony yet! I always leave it to the reader :P 3) SPOILERS. But there will be death's. Main? Maybe, maybe not. Minor? Maybe, maybe not.
1597082 You know, there's a whole idea of a side story I've planned from this chapter. It's actually essential at some point in the story I have planned. God, I wish I was two people. Then one could go about and do shit while the other one wrote all these ideas I have.
1673768 I was unable to express in words properly the dark subtleties to their laughter. If I could make it a tv show or comic, I'd have them laughing while the camera panned out from the library. This would continue as it revealed more and more of the town (the library visible still) with TRottes walking toward the building, silhouettes cascading over the library in an overly creepy fashion.
1680614 I own the comic. I wanted the story to be based on the comic much more than the show, as I feel it's subpar to Robert Kirkman's original story. As for Valor and Amethyst, I had a small reference for her written in the latest chapter, but I deleted it last minute. I really just needed a pony that was kinda recognizable but wouldn't piss people off if he/ she was dead. As for the new chapter, I realized I wanted Valor to have had a lost love, kinda like Lori. But you wouldn't actually meet her, and that valor knows she's dead. But having him see her in Chapter 2 would have screwed up my plan
1809814 I can hardly wait to finish it :P After this one is done I'll really get back into the swing of things and become more productive. I'd say it'll be ready and out by LATEST the end of January. (Time off for Christmas and finally seeing my family after 6 months)
Ooh, another Trotting Dead that isn't complete crap! I'm sorry, it's just that I'm the author of another one and I am pleased to find that some else finally did it right, that they focused on character relations rather than the majority of people whom think that zombie stories are about zombies, gore, and being a badass. Favoriting, liking, and good writing!
1823594 Ah thank you! I too have been struggling to find at least a few other good zombie stories out there. I've downvoted the hell out of so many... But thanks for the fave and like and everything! I hope to have a new chapter started soon
2050221 Oh it shall be! I got about half of it done, so expect it within a few weeks (or less I hope ) THings have finally gotten away from the wall I was writing myself into

The next chapter is going to be good. I can feel it

Hey! What about me?!
