Day 1: Subject 23 has begun to show some symptoms. He has started losing brain control and he isn't willing to eat any of the food that we gave him earlier. His skin has been looking very pale as well. This may be due to a lack of blood flow but he seems to be relatively living still. How he is still alive, i'm not sure, but he hasn't moved for about an hour. I will report more symptoms as they arise.
Day 2: He still doesn't seem to want to eat anything that we try to give him. He was eating just fine before we started these tests. Whatever it is that we were told to give the subject, it's having a very negative reaction. If this keeps up, I believe that the subject will be dead on the floor when i get back tomorrow and a dead body is the last thing that I want to clean up on my third day here. I'll have to see if I can get one of the janitors to do it.
Day 3: Great, now I have a headache and I feel slightly creeped out. All I heard all day was the subject in the chamber banging his head against the glass and screaming. I really hate it when i'm wrong sometimes. The only time that he responded was when we tried to send somepony in for testing. The subject instantly charged at my assistant when i sent him in and bit him a couple times on his front left leg, tearing off some of the skin, before we knocked our crazed subject back. I really hope that Checks is alright but, that is a pretty bad bite. I think that the subject has become a cannibal. Maybe later we can send someone that is more protected in there to clean the blood off of the glass. It has gotten very difficult to see in there.
Day 4: I heard when I got to work that Checks is showing similar behavior to subject 23. They had to tie him down when he tried attacking a few of the doctors that were watching over him. He managed to scratch some of them but that is about it. That doesn't sound very good at all though, especially given the fact that Checks was perfectly fine until he was bitten. He is under extreme medical testing however, so they are trying to find what actually caused this.
Day 5: I walked into the observation room to see broken glass and the subject kneeling next to the remains of one of my partners. The experiment has turned him into a full-on cannibal! He charged at me but was knocked back by some guards. Thank Celestia they were nearby to detain him or else I might have ended up like Checks. I don’t know what is going on here but one thing is for sure, I do not want to end up like my partner did. On another note, the ponies that were scratched began to show the same symptoms as Checks. They have been detained as well, so hopefully they can be cured. Whatever this is, it seems to be spreading faster than the cold.
Day 6: I showed up early to work today only to hear more bad news. The other ponies that were showing symptoms had somehow gained enough strength to break the straps that were holding them down and they proceeded to attack the doctors in the area. The victims could not defend themselves and thus all but one died in the attack. The survivor had escaped with a bite on his right hind leg. That area has been closed off for now and they took the injured man to a chamber just in case. I’m going to take a wild guess and say that he will be just like the others by tomorrow. The subject I have been studying hasn't shown any changes other than what looks like a slight increase in size. It may just be my mind playing tricks on me though.
Day 7: Surprisingly, there weren't many problems today except for I noticed that the gates and doors were acting kind of funny. They need to get that checked out as soon as possible, especially with the bad luck we have been having recently. Speaking of bad luck, the bitten doctor from yesterday has become just like the others. I'm really not surprised though. It's really a good thing that they locked him up as soon as they could. Hope we can find a way to reverse the effects before this becomes a bigger problem than it already is. I think that the pony I have been testing on is a little too far gone to help but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to help the ones that were recently changed by this sickness. He still hasn't been eating but nopony is fearless enough to try and force feed him. It is probably just another effect of the disease so I figured I’d take note of it.
Day 8: I knew that there was something wrong with those doors but of course they won’t listen to the scientist that has only been here for a week. The closed off area malfunctioned and opened up. Since they couldn't shut it, the ponies that were contained went on a rampage and a lot of ponies were bitten or eaten alive. This place has turned into something that one might see in a nightmare. The only way that i survived was because i was getting something from the janitors closet when it started. So now all i can do is try my best to stay away from these "things". I have hid inside of a medicine room with a pipe that I found near where the mechanic was working. I will survive this... I won’t become one of them...
Day 9: I found some more help pretty quickly. I obviously have to find a way out but, with nothing on me, I have to get things from around me. While I was looking for some supplies though, I found two survivors. They have probably been running into some of those “things” as well because I almost got hit. They say their names are Atom, a red unicorn mare that i assumed was a fellow scientist from her cutie mark, and Gates, a green stallion that was more than likely late for the job of fixing our doors, and that they weren't able to find much except for an ax and a small hoofgun from area 2. Unfortunately, it didn't come with any ammo so we'd have to see if we could find some along the way. We searched for a while longer before heading to a safe room but still found nothing but clipboards and medical tools. Tomorrow we have to find food and what better place to get that than by heading to the lunch area for this floor?
Day 10: We were able to make it to the lunch area without much trouble but there were some more of those "things" hanging around the area. We couldn't really search much of the lunch area if we wanted to stay alive but that didn't stop us from trying. Atom and I found nothing while Gate found some non-perishable food that could hold us off for the next couple days if we ration it right. We are still short one weapon though, because we can’t seem to find ammo anywhere. I know that this is a lab but you would think that at least one other pony would have something for self defence. Maybe it will be more cleared out tomorrow so that we can search a little more.
