Describe how your pony thinks the world is going to end : This pony thinks that the whole world is going to combust from an overload of natural disasters! There’s going to be volcanic eruptions that shot up fiery rocks and because the eruption is so strong that the earth begins to crack and open up. Water is going to burst forth and the ground is going to go down but not by much as there is a huge tsunami coming to hit land and cover most of it, even making the magma spewing from the volcano. Then there are going to be heavy rains, maybe tornados and earthquakes triggered from the major eruptions of the volcano then tsunamis. How has your pony prepared to survive the upcoming apocalypse? This pony has gone above and beyond in preparing to survive this catastrophe. This pony has wrapped up fruits into thick leaves and tucked them into baskets made from thin branches and leaves. Make holes into coconuts that can be found to save fresh water in them after enjoying a drink of coconut milk of course.
Then they have made a raft for the floods that would happen from the effects of the tsunami and a large palm leaves as a makeshift sails, it may work.
They are going this alone so as not to be slowed down by anyone especially if someone happens to be hysterical which would only get on the pony’s nerves.
Sailing or even running to higher ground on a journey to search for a spot that is safe for the time being from destruction. It doesn’t hurt to at least try to fight for survival and hope that there is one place that hasn’t been touched yet….keyword is yet. This pony is hopeful for that. Prize Pref List : Raptor Mare 1, Raptor Mare 2, Tasmanian Tiger, Albino Parasaur

Describe how your pony thinks the world is going to end : Doesn't just think, Knows it's going to end with giant bugs taking over the world How has your pony prepared to survive the upcoming apocalypse? This pony has decided to take it in their claws to kill as many bugs as they can. It's obvious they'd be over run from the little critters, though they aren't going to be so small. Some already are too big for the liking. Bugs that will eat everyone from the inside out, or even swallow you whole. They aren't as sneaky as they think they are, this one knows the truth. The more you stomp, the less you will have to worry about it in the end. Now only if everyone else fallowed suit, then there won't be a pending doom Prize Pref List : Raptor mare 1, Raptor 2, Parasaur, and familiar

Because I'm only eligible for the wolf, I thought it'd be fun to do it from his perspective.
Describe how your pony thinks the world is going to end : "Listen up, family!" the hound barked, calling the attention of his pack. The youth wasn't really head of the pack, yet, but dad was out hunting, so he had some respect. "I know this sounds... Out there, but listen to me! I've seen what's going to happen!" He huffed as his family jeered at him. "LISTEN TO ME!" He growled, and, startled, the girls drew quiet. "Alright, so... I've seen what's going to happen. I know we're going to have problems... Lots of them. Big ones, too, each of them is... is four times dad's size!" He gritted his teeth, as the others threw their doubts back and forth. "I MEAN IT! These things are massive, and they come with hard paws and sharp paws and rounded heavy paws. There's feathers like birds, and horns like... like gazelles, but different; long and sweeping back. There's long, long tails, and they're all quick as a whip! And... AND! They're gonna force us to do what they want! They're gonna split us up, like we pick off our meals and seperate them from their herds! They're all going to make us their slaves!" He broiled at their laughter, and had to bark to get their attention again. "HEY! Now, look, I've made some plans... I'm going to go over them with dad, too, when he gets back." How has your pony prepared to survive the upcoming apocalypse? It had taken some major convincing to get mom and dad to listen, and finally, preparations had begun. Mostly because Chorokendri wouldn't shut up about it. Before long, the wolves had investigated a cave deep in the forest, just under a towering mountain. It was big enough for the family and held fantastic proximity to new prey. While mom and dad had trouble hunting, the younger ones had no problem picking up how to hunt, and were soon reversing the teaching roles to show the elders how to catch rabbits, mice, and other small game. Again, the rest of the family began to take to a baffled state, when Chorokendri began working with the foliage, testing it like the lizards did, and pushing it into a rough weave, which he then settled over most of the door, just behind the bushes on either side. When the family was convinced he had locked them in to die, he crawled under an open corner of the foliage wall and shook out his fur, staring at them. "What are you waiting for? You can leave any time you want." He led them outside to show them the wall, how poofy it was and how it looked like the foliage in the forest. He leaned up on it briefly to show them that it was still flimsy, and told them it would need to be reworked once in a while when the leaves died. "Now what?" one of his sisters asked, and he watched her. "Well, we've changed everything, is there anything else we should change?" He realized she was sour, and that he'd overlooked something. He grinned. "Oh, just one more thing. See, now we take turns." His parents exchanged worried looks, parrotting his words. "Yes, we take turns. We, being my sisters and me. We're gonna go find other families to join us. There's other dens up there, we'll all be safe, and together... So I don't have to take care of THEM." He motioned to his sisters with his paw, and it took a moment for his parents to catch on to his meaning. "So, I'll go first." THere were complaints, of course. "Well, I got YOU guys to listen to me, didn't I?" The sister who'd spoken up to ask curled her lips and cringed away from him at the idea of spending her life alone with none but her family. "It's not safe to go alone. You should take one of us with you." Chorokendri grinned, and thanked her for volunteering, and his shocked sister turned sulk, after a few moments. She scoffed and rolled her eyes, glancing at the sky. "So... How long until your 'problems' arrive to enslave us all, Kendri?" she grumbled out in a huff. Chorokendri tilted his head, and glanced at the sky as well. "Hmm... Not sure, but soon." Her eyes lit up with fury and she snarled at him, threatening to attack. Their parents stepped up. "Listen... Even if they never come... Think of how much easier it is to hunt in one place, now. And there's a ready source of water that never seems to get any lower." Mom had always been sensible. Dad took the time to point out that if the lake ever did disappear, there was a cavern that went deep with water at its bottom, too, and that would be immune to heat, so there was a backup. "See? Now, once we get some bigger in our pack, expand a little... We'll get used to it." Prize Pref List : I am only elligible for familiars, so... Taz.

Describe how your pony thinks the world is going to end : 100%, it's going to be mutant bugs. Centipedes the size of t-rexes. Megalospiders. Eggs being laid in everyone's brain.
Spiders aren't bugs! Someone protests.
BUT THEN THEY WERE EATEN. BY MEGALOSPIDERS. How has your pony prepared to survive the upcoming apocalypse? Naturally, we'll all have to eat a diet of giant bugs from now on. Yes, even the herbivores. Giant locusts will spread, devouring all plant life, so you'll have to glean the undigested fibers from the bug's thorax. The water will also be infested with bug eggs, so everyone is just going to have to drink bug juice.
In preparation, we've gathered lemons. Lemons to throw at bugs. Bugs hate lemons, everyone knows that.
The best place to take shelter will naturally be a giant bug husk. We'll just carve that right out. The bugs will think we're one of them. We'll live like bugs. Eat like bugs. Talk like bugs. It's best to start practicing now. Everyone make a buzzing sound and rub your face on a flower.

Describe how your pony thinks the world is going to end : It won't happen right away, and in fact many won't even realize things are ending until it's too late. But slowly things will start to disappear. That's right, disappear! That's why it will be hard to know at first. It will start with small things, a few blades of grass here, a small plant there and the next thing you know whole trees and then forests will be gone. Living things will start vanishing and we won't be able to stop it. Before long we will live in a wasteland where only the strong and prepared will survive until the world rights itself (if it rights itself). How has your pony prepared to survive the upcoming apocalypse? "Listen up, I'm going to go over things. I know it will be a lot of information, but you must know what has been done already so that we are truly ready. I'll break everything down into categories so it's easier.
Food: I think it's obvious to say that we will need to eat. But food will be even more important once things start disappearing. That grass and tree leaves we are so used to eating every day will be gone eventually. So I have collected plenty to tie us over until things are better. But! I want to be clear, this is not something to start eating right away and we must ration it out. We must take advantage of the plant life that still remains while we can, and then, and only then, will we move on to the food stores. Hidden at our home and in a number of other locations is small stores of food. These consist of grass, leaves, fruits and a few herbs. They have all been dried and stored out of the light. Some are buried under ground, others are well hidden under rocks. There is enough at each location to last a few days, but only if we take care not to eat too much too quickly. This will allow us to travel to the next location and so on, retaining our strength for the coming days and weeks of struggle. Here's another important thing. Seeds. Some of the food I have stored contains seeds inside, like the dried fruit. We must save these and bring them with us. This will allow us to eventually plant them to grow our own food. This planting won't happen right away, so we must save the seeds and carry them wherever we go, gathering others along the way so that one day we have enough and when the lands are good again, we will have the ability to grow our food until the plant life fully returns and brings us back to a normal life.
Water: Water is another item of high importance. Without it, we will die. But have no fear! I have prepared for this as well. This part was a bit harder than finding and storing food, but I have prevailed. Through trade with the two-leggers, I have managed to gather a number of water skins. While not overly large, they will hold enough water each to get us to the next water skin, or body of water if we are lucky (and they are still around). Much like the food, we must ration our water, and take advantage of the lakes, rivers, ponds and springs while they are still available to us before digging into our stores.
Shelter: I'll admit, coming up with shelter was a bit of a challenge. Usually we would use was is around us, but with everything poised to disappear, well that's not really an option. It will work at first, but eventually we will be left exposed. But don't you worry, we won't be stuck out in the elements. You see, I've been watching those two leggers and they have a good idea with their shelters. They are light weight, sturdy and can be taken apart and brought with them as needed. So, I have developed a few similar shelters as well. Using blankets, a few poles from dead trees, or even a small pile of rocks if needed, we can construct a shelter to keep the sun, wind, rain or anything else off of us, when and where we need it. The blanket can be folded up and taken with us, carried in a pouch, and even the poles can be lashed together and dragged behind us if needed. The vines we use to put the shelter up, can be also used to bundle up the poles, as well as any other use for tying up something - or someone, if needed. Now, we can also use natural shelter whenever possible. Caves will be a welcome site, however we must be cautious using such obvious shelter and others may have the same idea and not all of the survivors will be good. Predators will use caves as ways of getting easy meals, but they will be an option if needed.
Medicine: Now, having food, water and shelter is a good thing and vital to our survival. But what if we get sick or hurt? I have spend many weeks, I'm sure you noticed I was gone regularly, studying with healers and herbalists trying to glean as much knowledge from them as I could. During that time I also busied myself with gathering the most vital herbs. Ones that break fever, help with poison, heal cuts, stop infection and even though that can help digest some of the more tougher plants we may end up eating. I have set up a number of caches hidden about the lands and contain these herbs. Let us hope that we never have to use them, but know they are there on the chance we encounter something unpleasant along the way.
Protection: Like it or not, we are going to need to protect ourselves. I have acquired and made a number of weapons which will help keep us safe. These range from short but thick branches which can be used as clubs, to longer, thinner and pointed sticks for spears. Most important of all is a stone knife I managed to get through a trade. On top of this, we will use the natural terrain of the area we are in to help keep predators and others at bay. Large rocks can be pushed off from cliffs to keep them away, or holes can be dug and lined with branches to create a pit. It all really depends on the situation we find ourselves in, but, know that no matter what, we will be protected, either by the weapons we already have or ones we can fashion along the way.
Boredom Busters: We will be busy surviving, yet even I know that there will be times when boredom sinks in. The redundancy of traveling to caches, setting up shelter and then moving on again can affect even the strongest. So, I have planned for that as well. I have crafted a few games to play. One is quite fun. I took small stones, and a few sticks and marked them with five different types of markings. We take turns rolling the stones, keeping track of what symbols pop up. Each symbol combination is worth a certain number of points. However, some symbols take away points and...well it's hard to explain without the game here. I have two sets of this game hidden at one of the supply caches and a few other things at other locations. We can also make up games as we go if needed, but the focus of all of this is to survive.
The Plan: Okay, here's where it gets slightly complicated. I don't know where things will start to disappear, I just know that it will happen. It could happen North of us, or to the West, or it could happen right here in our home. So we need to be ready to move at any time, in any number of directions. The plan I have made will change as needed but here is the basic idea. We will stay here at our home for as long as possible. We have plenty of fresh water and food available. However, we will need to watch out for intruders, those looking for resources to steal. As such, we will need to have regular patrols, but we don't want to patrol the same section at the same time every day, that creates a pattern that someone can notice and will make it easier for them to sneak in and take things. I know patrols sound tedious, but trust me, it will be worth it in the end. During these patrols we need to keep an eye out for any signs that the disappearing is happening near us. Once we see signs of us we will move into the second stage of the plan. Knowing what direction the disappearing is happening in will determine where we will go next. As I mentioned before, taking advantage of the existing food and water in the lands is priority, so we will move away from the disappearing. How long we stay in that new location will depend on how quickly the disappearing catches up with us. Eventually we will run out of fresh food and water and that is when we will start using the caches. I have caches hidden in all directions, so no matter what way we have been traveling, there will be a cache hidden within a day or two of walking. We must be cautious while accessing out caches. Be aware of anyone trying to follow us, there may not be many places for them to hide with everything gone, but that doesn't mean they won't try. If they know we have hidden supplies they could steal from us and risk our ability to survive.
I believe that covers everything. Now, are there any questions?
A map? No, don't be foolish, a map is a terrible idea! Why? Because if we lose it or another steals it then they will know where all our caches are and can remove everything before we get to them. Don't worry, I'll tell you all where the caches are before we start moving. That way if anything happens to me, you will all be prepared. Oh don't worry, I don't plan on letting anything happen, but I like to be ready for all eventualities.
What's that? Will our caches disappear like everything else? Well...no. How? Well it's only the living things that will disappear. Since all the food is dried, it won't be affected. That is why we must take advantage of the plants while they are still around and -- no, don't you worry, we won't disappear either, it will just be the plants. But losing all the plants will affect everyone.
Now, if there are no other questions, I will go over where the --- wait! Wasn't there a plant there a moment ago? I'm certain of it! Which means it has already begun. Alright everyone, time is of the essence, let's put this plan in motion! And remember, don't panic, we are more than prepared for this! Now where the heck did my walking stick go..."

Describe how your pony thinks the world is going to end : What seemed to be a normal illness spreading through herds turned out to be more deadly. The viruses were unstoppable and the dead littered the ground. Shamans and medicine workers gathered to try and battle the advancements of the cases but all seemed for naught. How has your pony prepared to survive the upcoming apocalypse? Preparing for defeating illnesses they fell into isolation. They encouraged those who were sick or had been in contact with sick individuals to quarantine themselves. Food is stocked in a cave with it's own natural spring and if needed foraging to add to the supplies they go out with protective masks of cloth over their muzzles. Burning of bodies to reduce the spread if they come across dead bodies. Weapons and booby traps to keep their safe haven secure from those that might try to take their preparations for them self.

Describe how your pony thinks the world is going to end : No one has ever believed me when I've told them about "the end of the world." They just laugh and shake their heads. Sometimes they even say hurtful things and call me names. That's alright. Who's gonna be laughing when it all comes true! I've seen the signs. I've studied and calculated, actually hoping I was wrong, but always seem to find proof that I am right. Each day brings us closer and closer. What is going to be the end of the world you ask? What has me so paranoid? Well, it's those damn bunnies. The bunnies! They're going to take over and destroy the world!
I've been watching and counting. I don't know how they do it, but they are increasing their numbers so fast that at the rate theiy're going, soon they're going to outnumber all other species 10 to one!
I know you're probably thinking that there's no way that bunnies can be the cause of the apocalypse though, but that's what's going to happen. They're going to keep multiplying and growing in numbers, and then there's going to be a great bunny uprising!
How has your pony prepared to survive the upcoming apocalypse? Those bunnies are tricky you see. They look all cute and fluffy but it's all a trick! They just want you to think they're small and defenseless, but they're evil geniuses in disguise. They're going to take out our water and food supply first, and then start picking off the larger species one by one. What they lack in strength and size, they make up for in cunning and numbers.
I have a plan though. I'm ready for it. I'm going to create my own sanctuary where I can live when the bunny s**t hits the fan. I have a nice little island where I've began collecting supplies. I've dug myself a large pit where I've been collecting rain water. I've planted a small garden to live off of and set up a perimeter to keep out any pesky bunnies or other trespassers that might want to steal my stash. I've made an alarm system out of vines and coconut shells that alerts me if anyone gets near. I'm sure this plan will work because bunnies can't swim to get to my island. I'll be safe on my island when the great bunny takeover begins!

Describe how your pony thinks the world is going to end : Slowly, so slowly that most others so not even realize that it is happening. But i do. I see how differently the others have been acting day by day, almost like their losing their color, their lives. And the earth we walk on is dying, yet no one seems to care. I care thuogh and im determined to find a way to overcome it and at least save part of nature along with me. Those i mention this to usually laugh in my face, but we'll see who's laughing soon enough.. How has your pony prepared to survive the upcoming apocalypse? I have been busy these last few years making a little slice of heaven on earth, i have been using natural remedies for the earth, some interesting scientific methods, and a bit of magic i must admit, to make a little slice of heaven no one is aware of. Here nothing is dying everything is so very alive and in bloom, there is a beautiful lake, plenty of food, im even growing more. It will be my sanctuary when everything falls. Prize Pref List : 2,3,1

Well I had to bring in 2 more staff judges to help make this decision, some of you guys did a really great job! Thank you for entering and good luck if your still trying elsewhere! Without any further rambling on my part here are the first and second place winners! First place She-Ra of Etheria We loved how you wrote beyond food/shelter/water and thought about your survivors mental well being too! Also disappearing plants was an intriguing take on the end of the world.  By Odet Second Place Capricorn Sunchai Getting your survivors to adapt to a more stable food source and your groups post apocalyptic stance on visitors was a fun read and the idea of a plague wiping everything out was a fun plot idea to think about.  By DeeJaye This leaves the Albino and the purple raptor as the last of our survivors in need of a home. I will be rolling from the below list for them (if you cannot win a pony you've been removed).
