Holed up in the center of the historical museum, the small group attempted to keep the hordes out, but soon learned that was a losing battle. For each zombie downed at least two more replaced it, driving them further back. Luna continued to summon up black fire, while Celestia and Cadance watched her back, downing those who closed in with sword strokes.

Further back Tree Hugger continued to reload and fire off muskets, tossing aside one that had gotten jammed and picking up a new one. She was flanked by Trixie, who wielded an exotic sword/whip hybrid weapon, Flash Sentry who crunched bones under a two-handed war hammer, and finally Sonata who found the boomerang she hurtled was of little help here.

“Here chickadee,” said Hugs who tossed her a flintlock pistol. “Careful with that, okay?”

“Ooh, nice!” Sonata took aim and fired, watching as a hole was punched into a creature's chest. Gore spread over the ruined interior, mixing with fragments of glass and overturned cases, the contents spilled out amidst the viscera. Crunches sounded when they were forced to further retreat. “Um what should we do?! At this rate we're all gonna bite the big one!”

“Damn.” Flash could tell they'd be overrun at any second. He clicked his collar. “Anyone? We're pinned down by a mass of undead at the-” He was suddenly seized by a pair of surprisingly soft but firm hands, staring back in shock at the nude female zombies behind him. His hammer clunked, hands tearing free his clothes, rapidly stripping him down.

They proved much stronger than they looked, pulling him down, thankful he didn't recognize the blonde-haired and blue-eyed triplets before him. He figured they must hunt in a pack, but his mind blanked out when one of them held his arms from behind while the other sisters knelt and started to greedily nibble and suckle all over his rapidly swelling penis. “Sh-shit!”

He flushed and tried not to think anything sexy, but his flesh proved willing despite how he felt, the nubile trio pressing their milky bodies upon him. Worse still similar fates were about to befall his surrounded companions.

A pack of wolves rushed in snarling and drooling with glowing umber eyes, infected by having drunk water suffused with bloody rain and now reduced to ravenous beasts. They could smell Spike's lingering musk in the air, and likewise Fluttershy, who had a pull over all beasts due to her gentle nature. Shy's aroma was all over Tree Hugger, drawing them towards her.

It was hard enough to shoot a former person. Somehow it seemed even worse to hurt an animal, even though Hugs told herself that was silly, that it was now survival of the fittest. She winced and fired, managing to down one of the beasts before they swarm over her, and she screamed expecting them to tear her to pieces. Instead she froze up as they started to tear her clothes.

She went limp knowing what was coming, certain they'd simply hurt her if she resisted. “R-run,” she called to Sonata and Trixie who reluctantly scurried off. Garments shredded loudly, jaws tearing strips of cloth away, removing her blouse and shorts easily. Then they yanked off her bra, which popped open and spilled free sizable breasts, while paws trailed down her thighs and pulled down her frilled panties. She closed her eyes, shamefaced and red, having eaten pussy plenty of times but never having taken a cock. She could smell the stink of meat on their breaths, wondering if they'd eat her after they were done with her?

At least, she consoled herself, maybe her loss would allow the others to survive. A mass of furry bodies were pinning her down, slobbering all over her, warm spit running over her face and tits, pooling on her navel and dripping over her crotch.

Attempting to blank her mind, her legs were forced apart by a particularly bulky wolf, she assumed the alpha who took first claim, driving his red, veiny dick into her cunt which watered on contact. He spread her wide open as he knotted her, his girth filling her, his tongue lapping at her breasts which rolled each time he ran over her soft mounds and growing erect nipples.

She barely felt another climb under her, spearing her ass as he likewise knotted deep in her rectum, while a third pressed his length into her lips, salty precum drooling over her tongue. Her eyes watered as claws raked over her supple flesh, leaving small red nail marks across her. They took her with savage hunts, barking and growling all the while.

She rocked between them thankful she couldn't see what happened to her allies. Hopefully they'd all escaped?

Warm jizz flooded her womb, filled her rectum to overflow, shot in gooey loads that ran down her gullet. But the moment one managed to pop free with a painful tug, another took its place, paws continued to grope and scratch her, tongues lapping and teeth nibbling, her one relief that some of the wolves settled down to sleep once they finished with her.

Perhaps if she helped them along this nightmare would end faster? She took a couple of slippery cocks between her palms, stroking them, their pre oozing down while she stroked them. Pushing her head down on the wolfhood in her maw, she worked them over quick as possible, humping into the wolf currently fucking her in hopes he'd empty his balls sooner.

She also clenched her lower holes, having practiced her kegels with Shy during all their nude yoga sessions, her canals vice-like when she strained them. Precum and spunk mixed within those warm, squishy walls of hot pink.

Dignity didn't seem to matter right now. Merely continued survival. She lost track of the times they ejaculated all over her, smearing it into her supple skin and drenching her dreadlocks and face, leaving her a ragged, slippery mess while they continued to mount and breed her senseless. She knew Shy would understand, but still felt like she'd betrayed her.

Again-and-again they pounded her until she was thoroughly sore, covered in small cuts, bruises, and bite marks all over, gaping wide each time their knots ripped free and left bubbling cum oozing out and churning in her packed uterus. Thankfully she eventually blacked out, the wolf pack mercilessly pumping her unconscious form until their balls could spill no more...

Trixie huffed and wiped her runny eyes on her sleeve, dropping a pair of smoke bombs that exploded into colorful plumes which covered their escape. “What happened to Celestia, Luna, and Cadance?” She'd lost track of them in the bedlam. “I'm such a coward,” she mumbled to herself. “Anyone?” She tapped her collar, hearing muted groans between the buzzing.

Ahead of her ran Sonata who headed towards the cold room to protect the remains of her siblings. But long before she could reach it, she skidded to a stop, seeing the bare shapes of Adagio and Aria headed their way. “S-sisters...?”

“Keep away from them,” called Trixie who unfurled her sword into a chain whip.

“Wait!” Sonata sobbed, spreading her arms wide as she came between them. “Don't hurt them!” She yelped when the flesh dolls suddenly seized her, starting to tear away her clothes, hoping to make her like them, to show her how wonderful it felt.

“Sonata!” Once more she readied her chain whip to strike, but she was in the way, her massive jugs unleashed with a wobble as they tore away her blouse and jacket. Her skirt and panties were pulled away almost as easily, leaving the shapeliest Dazzling denuded while their hands wandered all over her. Their nails were more like claws once extended, and blood erupted from the vampiresses backs, as bat-like leather wings instinctively rippled free, a power neither had tapped into.

“Sisters,” sniffled Sonata with a sob when Aria seized her ponytail, ripping it loose from its band and forcing a kiss on her, a warm tongue fishing into her throat. She simultaneously sunk a pair of digits into her shaved bare slit, molesting a heavy tit, while Adagio similarly traced her buttocks, sinking a few fingers up her asshole while they tortured her with pleasure.

Trixie debated whether to press her attack or run. Maybe she could get help? But before she could decide another blockade of revenants clogged the hallway, and she lashed out, managing to strike down a couple with her wild lashes before they closed over her. “H-help,” she cried with rapid taps of her collar, being lifted into the mass like she was crowd-surfing.

She shrieked and trashed when strong hands hatefully peeled away her attire, seeing her as nothing more than a piece of meat to sate their lingering lusts. Her bra snapped loose, and her panties were slipped down her bare pussy and down her ankles, as they beset her from all directions, running a train on the hapless magician as they drilled into all her entrances.

She'd rarely had sex before and never with a man. One lifted her up by the legs, ramming into her vagina. “Unf,” she cried, barely having a moment to rest before another pistoned into her backdoor. They started to thrust her back-and-forth, trapping them in a spitroast between them, balls smacking each time they fully sheathed themselves in her.

“You'll break me,” she wailed only to have her hair seized, another jerking her sideways so that his cock was forced down her throat. She gurgled and sobbed, confused by a mixture of ambivalent feelings overwhelming her, walls rippling with agony and ecstasy each time they bludgeoned her cervix-deep. Vaginal honey smeared her inner thighs, dripping over her speared anus.

Her eyes went wide in absolute terror as they moaned and started to let loose in her, hosing down all her tunnels, sending her over the edge as she came hard all over the brutes currently taking her with waves of lady cum.

Sonata whimpered too, denuded save for her socks, shoes, and the geode which swung on its necklace between her voluptuous titties. “Sssstttoooppp,” she shrieked and the black-and-green rock lit up. Suddenly all the creatures frozen in place. She blinked a couple of times. “Let us go,” she ordered and the horde, including her sisters, dropped them and parted.

Trixie coughed, vomiting up thick wads as she toppled naked onto all fours, still huffing and heaving. “D-damn,” she whispered thankful to still be alive despite all the horrors they'd endured. She tapped her collar again. “Anyone there?!”

“Bzzt...on...way...” A scrambled voice sounded.

Sonata clasped the geode and offered a hand, helping the trickster up. “Let's help the others, okay?”

“Yeah...” Trixie wiped herself off with the tattered remnants of her now useless costume. Following her ally, the sea of zombies parted, the shells of Adagio and Aria following after their sister, primed to stick by the one familiar part that sparked in their brains. She looked upon her siblings with a pained expression, still hopeful she could somehow revive them.

At her insistence the invaders stopped, including the wolf pack still breeding the well-mounted Tree Hugger, now completely slathered all over in their slimy spunk. Knots popped loose with lewd squelches and she landed with a thud in a huge puddle of animal semen. The triplets also withdrew from Flash, his loins aching from how many times they'd thoroughly blown him.

“Never thought I'd get laid too often,” he said with a wince as his nethers burned. “Are you all okay?”

“Could be worse I suppose,” said Trixie with teeth clenched. “We're still alive.”

Stumbling over to Tree Hugger, he used a shroud from a case to wipe her down, wrapping her in it and picking her limp form up. He used another to reclaim some semblance of dignity, as did Trixie and Sonata. Small explosions sounded outside, more windows shattering as Luna continued to fight off the attackers with Celestia and Cadance outside.

“Stop this,” called Sonata when she strutted outside and the revenants immediately froze up. “It's kind of like my siren's song,” she observed with a bemused giggle. “Everyone accounted for? Whew. Hey, think this'll work on Sombra, Tirek, and Sunny?”

“Probably not,” said Luna who snuffed her flames, drenched all over from the power she'd been forced to exert. “I think they...are only controllable...because they're...near mindless...” She suddenly collapsed.

“Sister,” cried Celestia who caught her. “It's okay. She simply winded herself.”

Cadance nodded, she and Celestia's dressed sticking to their bare curves from all the sweat and blood they'd spilled. “Without you we would've died for certain. You're a heroine.” She smiled tenderly and kissed her temple.

Sonata studied the masses around them. “But what should I do with them...?”

The survivors stared at the torn down historical museum. It no longer seemed safe. But was anywhere now?

The sports car pulled to an abrupt stop. Rainbow Dash put it in park and rushed out, Pinkie Pie and Rarity trailing behind her when she rushed to Twilight Sparkle's and Moondancer's side. “Got your message, Fluttershy.” She hid behind her thick hair and looked down, hopeful they'd forgive her call for aid under the circumstances. “Everybody still kickin'?!”

“One down,” said Applejack who walked out followed by Spike. “The Sphinx here took a deadly blow for 'em.” She pointed a thumb behind her into the forest. “Buried her. Figured it's the least we could do, after she helped us and all.”

“Poor creature,” lamented Shy who petted a whimpering Spike. “There, there, I'm here for you.”

Rarity pursed her lips. “What about poor-”

“Twilight will be okay,” assured Moondancer. “She's simply asleep. Now where is Sunset?”

“Gone on ahead alone.” Dash shook her head. “Said it's too important, that there's no time to explain!”

“Of all the stupid, harebrained-” AJ tapped her collar. “What the hay are you up to?!”

“I have the means to stop this mess. Each time I've purified someone I've become more powerful,” explained Sunset to everyone who tuned in over the devices. “When I peered into Tirek's soul I saw how this hole in reality could be undone. But I wasn't certain I could manage it at the time. Adagio, Aria, Inky...they've all helped make this possible.”

AJ stomped a foot. “Why didn't ya wait for us?!”

“Because every second wasted means another life could be lost. Including all my friends. I don't care about being a hero. Think whatever you like about me. But I have to do this. I'll be at the source soon.” She cut off the connection.

“Why that dern blasted fool!” She restrained an urge to rip off the collar and crunch it.

Flutters bit her lower lip. “Um, what if she's right...?”

“Guess we'll find out soon!” Pinkie skipped over to them. “In the meantime, let's head over to back her up, huh?!”

Moondancer carefully lifted up Twilight and placed her in the backseat of the sports car, sitting beside her. Spike laid at their feet, while Fluttershy, Rarity, and Applejack awkwardly crammed in, Rainbow taking the wheel and Pinkie by her side. “Keep that marshmallow butt outta my face,” warned AJ who tried not to stare at those plush alabaster cheeks with a slight blush.

“Excuse me,” retorted Rarity with a hand raised to bosom. “Kindly keep that freckled derriere out of mine!”

“You could always sit in my lap,” teased Pinkie with a snicker. “Or you can keep talking about butts! I don't mind!”

“Tou know how she gets about butt-talk,” teased Rainbow who revved up the engine. “So hold onto your asses, we're goin' in fast and hard!” She and Pinkie cheered when they sped off with a tire screech, hitting top speed to make up for lost time.

“Besides,” called Pinkie who stuck her head out the window as the scenery raced by. “We all know Fluttershy has the biggest butt!” Shy couldn't help but burn red and tried to shrink into her seat, always self-conscious of her voluptuous form.

“At least we're all back together, darlings. Aside from Sunset, mind you.” Rarity sucked on her lower lip.

Lost in idle banter they were temporarily able to forget their circumstances. On the way Celestia contacted them, sending them an update on their situation, but also warning them not to turn back since they'd managed to resolve it. With the majority of zombies having cleared out it was mostly a straight shot to their destination, where the final confrontation loomed.

Parking her motorcycle some distance away from where the warehouse once stood, Sunset stayed low as she crept closer, a hellish rust-colored whirlwind churning overhead. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw her counterpart in the distance, the nude she-demon now a titan, having drank down so much blood from the clouds her belly was now rounded as if she'd been impregnated. She was busy rubbing more crimson nectar into her swollen breasts which rolled under her palms.

She moved in near silence, wishing she had Wallflower's invisibility about now. The memory of what had happened still pained her. Another friend she'd lost forever. She'd forsaken revenge, but she'd see that justice was somehow done.

Ever closer she crept. All it would take was one touch of her palm and she could hopefully purify her. She stared up at Sunny from behind, about to lay hands on her, when a spear sailed out of nowhere, striking her in the calf. “Oh?” Turning and plucking the object that pricked her free, she suddenly seized Sunset by one leg, dangling her upside-down.

There was no time to worry about who'd broken her cover. Sunset swayed helplessly as she was lifted up and studied by her doppleganger, her geode seeming to dull in the presence of the dark aura she emitted, until her markings receded leaving her nude. “Don't do this, Sunny! This isn't you! Fight the darkness! You've seen what happens to those who embrace it! It made Adagio and Aria psychotic! Is that how you want to end up?!” She was already starting to dizzy as blood rushed to her head.

Sunny's mouth twisted into a predatory smirk when she drank in her supple flesh. “Why not? It's far more fun. And besides, at least now I'm not useless. Yo, maybe I should suck the geode right out of you?” She wiggled her eyebrows, sticking out an impossibly thick and long forked tongue, worming the muscle between Shimmer's thighs and into her waiting snatch.

Tensing up with a shameful moan, Sunset felt the intruder wiggling into her velvety pink walls, fishing all the way to her cervix, and then spearing past it, to slurp at the walls of her womb. Heat built in her core as her moistness dribbled from the spread wide slit, down her navel and tits, her wetness dripping over her face and into her parted lips until sweet honey filled her mouth. Lewd schlicks and slurps sounded while she cleaned her insides with deft strokes.

A free hand flicked her swaying boobs with a single fingertip, the flesh orbs jiggling under repeated flicks. She was the she-demon's personal plaything, to be toyed with at her leisure, as she siphoned her essence straight from her uterus and out of her cunt into her own stomach. A heavenly warmth filled her as Sunset's eyes rapidly fluttered from multiple, messy climaxes.

Her eyes crossed and she nearly passed out several times. Her midsection bulged from the invader spearing her slippery core. She'd never been taken anywhere near this deeply. Even Flash, Adagio, or Twilight hadn't been able to give her a sense of bliss quite like this. However no matter how wonderful it felt, it was ultimately empty without the intimacy she craved.

“S-Sunny...please,” she called weakly to her mirror who simply smiled at her.

Summoning another spear the ancient warrior crafted from the darkness within him, Tirek chuckled while he watched the she-demon ravish her prey. All the demonic centaur needed do now was wait until the others arrived, and when they were whittled down from their pitched battle, he'd swoop in on their broken numbers and claim the power denied him for his own.

Yet something unexpected happened before his dark eyes. Draining the geode's essence from Sunset, Sunny started to undertake a transformation, her devilish visage washed away to be replaced by an angelic one. “Hmmm. I'm not certain this bodes well.”

The broken body of Sombra twitched, his spine having been snapped under a crushing hoof. So much of his power had been stolen back. But refusing to lie down even now, realizing since he'd soaked up a portion of Tirek he could never die due to the passed on curse, he concentrated and vanished from sight, thankful he'd partially drained Wallflower.

Channeling all the strength still left in him, the occultist called upon the black arts, forming it into a sphere of invisible energy. Knowing he'd only have one shot, he cast it at Tirek's head, who howled when it exploded on contact. “Die!” Flesh sizzle and melted, the centaur almost blinded, but his spear struck true, a sickening gurgle sounding when he impaled the warlock.

Sombra bled and hung limp on the pole, unable to maintain his vanishing act. “We cannot die,” reminded Tirek. “But as I've learned we can be dismembered.” He drew the spear-tip through his chest cavity, ripping it open, until he cut all the way to his neck, sawing off his head with a weapon wielded by muscular arms. Once he'd finished, he lifted up his morbid prize.

A long shadow closed over the pair, followed by a glowing white hand, which wrapped into a fist around them. “Hey, what do we have here?” The spear had fallen from the centaur's grasp who struggled helplessly in Sunny's iron hold, Sombra's head likewise pressed between her index finger and thumb like she was about to pop a pimple. “You must be purified.”

“Foolish upstart,” muttered Tirek. “You alerted her-”

Light flooded into Tirek and Sombra, to such a degree it exploded from their eyes and mouths, the sound overwhelming their screams as the very curse which infected them now burned their insides. They withered and mummified before the intense illumination, which simply made Sunny even more powerful, her bared skin now radiating with a soft aura.

Her wings were now an angelic white plume, a halo hovering above her dome. “It seems you two will never change. You'll do nothing but continue to cause trouble, and so I must deal with you!” She absentmindedly tossed the defeated villains, now little more than ruins of dried flesh who were barely conscious, into the void to Hell which they both sought.

Turning to Sunset who she'd tenderly placed down, she said, “No doubt they'll be tortured forever. No less than they deserve, don't you think?” She chuckled. “I understand now. This whole world is rotten. But it doesn't have to be destroyed. Just cleansed of the darkness monsters like them unleashed. It'll be a utopia. Just like you and your friends want, right?”

“Not...like this,” whispered Shimmer who weakly rose naked onto her side.

Watching helpless while Sunny closed her eyes and concentrated, waves of pure light rippled out from her, scouring the earth and sky, burning away the hellish overcast and replacing it with an almost blinding brightness. Blood which suffused the streets turned to water, and zombies crumbled to dust, while the vampiric curse which infected so many was burnt away.

“I'll make a Heaven of Earth,” came the soft voice of Sunny, her dreamy eyes wide but calm. “I understand now. Thanks, Sunset Shimmer. I was blinded before. But now? Well, I'll simply wipe all evil away. And you'll all worship me like a Goddess.”

The cleansing effect continued to carry outward, Spike howling as it passed over him, reverting back from a lycanthrope until he'd collapsed back into a small dog. Luna's head swam as she felt the lingering traces of darkness dissipate. Even the doll-like joints that decorated Rarity were fixed, and she rapidly blinked.

Zombies crumbled to dust, finally put to a rest denied them, Sonata sobbing as her sisters had their bodies likewise crumble, reduced to a dried up pile before her. However, even this healing aura couldn't break the curse upon the soul jars, which rested back in the morgue-like room, the unnatural chill removed under the holy warmth.

Sunset shook her head, resisting the soothing tranquility which poured over her. “What about free will?!”

“There won't be any need for that once everyone's happy!” Sunny recalled how the self-styled 'Nightmare Moon' could manipulate dreams. Why shouldn't she do the same? But this time she'd help them all fulfill their innermost desires, trapped them within their minds forever, while she kept them alive and perfected a planet brimming with strife and waste.

The congealed bubble which surrounded the town broke, turning from scarlet to pristine blue, the water gently raining down on the battered expanse. The warm sunk baked over the land with soothing, gentle rays. A sleepiness began to descend over the populace, who felt their anxieties dwindle by the moment. A new era was about to dawn.
