Stories set in the Oversaturated World, some silly, some less so.
"Two months," Sunset groused. "It's only been two months, and there's a zombie outbreak."
Twilight coughed. "I don't think it can be considered an 'outbreak.' Lab accident, maybe. And they're contained, and... well, it's lab rats, Sunset." She paused. "Unless some of them escaped--?"
"No, we're lucky the scientists were smart enough to lock the cages." She gestured at the online video of a partially dissected rat skittering around its enclosure. "I just... There isn't such a thing as zombie ponies in Equestria."
"Why not?"
Sunset opened her mouth... and paused. "...You know, I don't actually know. Hold on." She pulled out the magical world-connecting journal and quickly wrote something down in it. "Let's hope we get an answer soon though. Honestly. Zombies."
"Lab rats, Sunset."
"ZOMBIES!"
"...I think they're ghouls, technically." Twilight looked over her shoulder at the video of the rat trying to tug its own entrails free of the hamster wheel. "They still retain some some self-control."
"...what, there are classes of undead now?"
"Trust me, when your brother plays as many fantasy games as mine did growing up, you learn these things."

Be glad they're not rat liches or vampires. Even a swarm of rat wights would kill you with the sheer weight of negative levels.

Rat lich.
Rat lich.
You badly misspelled journal.
Other than that, hilarious.

And thus began the first experimental uses of Sunset's cutie mark as a positive energy focus (or "holy symbol," according to the thaumologists who first proposed the idea.) She wasn't happy about it, but it did work.

Well, Masterweaver misspelled it and I missed that in the transcription. Still, fixed.
*snickers* I think I need a picture of that poor rat with his entrails stuck.

Pretty certain I remember that happening in a game and I was stuck trying desperately to escape waves of zombie, skeletal, and wight rats as a the Rat Lich kept on undoing my buffs.
Think it might have been Tales of Maj'Eyal.

Oh sure, it's just a couple of undead rats. That's how it ALWAYS starts.
Next thing you know, the streets are flooded with zombies, ghouls, or worse, strigoi.
And then you're REALLY fucked.
7584736 This outbreak is obviously magical in nature, so it can't be spread by the zombies. That only works if the plague is viral.
Uh, this may be more dangerous than you think. Did nobody here read the "Vampire's Rat" Chapter in The Land of the Lawn Weenies by David Lubar?
I really, REALLY hope those rats don't have fleas...
Oh, sure! Sure! Take a look.
