Along the edges of Raccoon City lays the Arklay Mountains, a vast and heavily forested region. For the past few weeks hikers have gone missing, and the few hikers that have turned up have been found ripped apart and eaten by some kind of animal. To deal with this, the newly formed S.T.A.R.S (Special Tactics and Rescue Squad) sent out their Bravo team to investigate. When a freak storm comes out of no where and cuts off communications with Bravo the S.T.A.R.S Alfa team head out to find them and see if they can uncover what is happening to anyone who ventures into the forest. Though they manage to discover what's responsible for all of the deaths, that discovery leads them down a path of horror and pits them against a powerful and corrupt enemy.

(Note - For anyone familiar with the Resident Evil universe: Some Resident Evil characters have been replaced with ones from MLP. Plot wise this will not be an exact retelling of the games simply with ponies. There is enough different that it shouldn't be clear what's about to happen simply because you are familiar with the series.)

Having completed her final exam of the year Dazzle happily trots home, stopping by her favourite convenience store to pick up a well earned snack. Perhaps it's the lack of sleep, the poor diet all college students are prone to adopt, or the stress of exams, but Dazzle finds as the joy of finishing school wears off she begins to feel rather odd. As if chill of early Autumn wrapped itself around her bones and the air itself solidified around her, trapping her.

"Rest and a decent meal." She thought as she forced herself to continue home, where she hoped she could find sanctuary from the strange sensations invading her day. Perhaps it was all punishment for some wrong doings, or maybe just the natural progression of life. Either way, Dazzle would like nothing more than for her current state of being to come to an end.
