Day thirteen
8 Snowfall ‘04 EoH
“Still nothing?”
“Yeah…” Twilight said, starting to doubt this plan.
“If only we could communicate with our new friend.”
“Wait, thats it!” And with that, Twilight out of the room and came back with a book.
“Now my dearest princess, clearly this is no time to be reading.”
“This isn’t just any ordinary book Discord, it’s a book that allows me to communicate with Sunset Shimmer, and if I could copy the spell from here into an empty journal, then link it to a journal here, then we can communicate using the book.”
But before she could put said action into place, Discord snatched the book out of her magic grasp. “Now Twilight, don’t be impatient, if you send any more magic tricks, you may end up confusing them. I’m quite sure that the letter we sent is more than enough to keep them on the right path.”
“But-” But Twilight was cut off by Discord.
“If what I think is happening, is happening, then we should be perfectly fine.”
This was the second time Discord has stopped her from using a shortcut of sorts in the week following the sending of the letter, the first was Discord forcibly wiping her mind of the time travel spell.
For once it was Twilight who was being uncooperative and impatient.
She wanted this fixed now, she has the ability to easily fix this entire problem, but Discord is telling her to trust these new friends… This is really unorthodox!
After realizing this Twilight thought she was going insane, but kept it together, there are more important things to be concerned about than Discord being the one to remember friendship.
“I guess this means you want to wait it out then?”
“Why yes actually.” He said as he summoned ten chocolate sundaes.

After Derrick went to bed, I found myself unable to sleep, so I decided to explore past an open vent cover and see what there is to see.
In the span of a night I actually mapped the entire ventilation I have access to, which was odd because before I never had this good a memory, did the change give me a new name and a photographic memory?
Anyway, I found myself feeling confined again so I decided to leave, but not before leaving a letter.
Unfortunately, my hoof writing is now terrible and I found it hard to hold the pen in anything but my mouth, but that’s ok since I found I’m just bad again, not terrible like I was long, long ago.
But I was able to make it readable, so that's good. The reason for the letter is because Derrick is still asleep, which is what I expect from the kid who slept through class and bell because he was used to waking up at noon.
After a while I found the vent cover I was looking for, one that was looking toward the vast open sky, and after bucking the vent off I went flying away from the sunrise.
I decided to follow the letter from the pen fighting pair, so I landed on a cloud, to find out which way to go to find them.
"The needles pointing West." I said as looked at the letter.
After two and a half hour flight I found myself back home, literally, the compass lead me back to my house,yellow police tape and all.
Unfortunately, I left the house locked when I left and I didn't take my keys with me when I left and even if I did, I can't hold them anymore so how am I supposed to get in?
I could try the window, but that would set off the alarm, or I could try to find Mr. Paranoids shack, yes I know that’s not his real name but I haven't found miss Rose Tyler, I heard from someone she disappeared with a bunch of ghost in London, before this I would have said that they were mad to say such a thing, but now I’m a candy colored pegasus, I think I will believe anything now.
I decided to not do this until I remember where the key is, and I’ve finally recovered so I decided to explore the world.
It will be a long trip, but I’ll make the most of it.

When I woke up I found no Allen in the vicinity, like she left in the middle of the night.
Wondering where she went, I looked around for her until I found the note, the handwriting is terrible, but she has hooves, what do you expect, at the very least it was readable.
Dear Derrick
While I’d love to stay I can’t help but feel confined, so I’m leaving through the vents to find out where the letter I got will take me, don’t worry I will be back soon.
Signed Patient Zero
Looking it over I found myself uncertain about something. “When did Allen start hating small spaces?”
Whatever happened, I got to get this fever down before I can think about it much.

Does she *really*? Or merely think she does? She couldn't even fix the original virus in the first place.
I'm looking forward to the coming days as more and more people hit full transformation.
5979323 Zero just has high hopes that Twilight is a deus ex machina, with the letter being a deus ex device (spoilers: there not.)
Soon I will be skipping ahead a little to the next point in time, where things will start getting interesting.
I'm still wondering what will happen when virus will be blown up with nuclear bomb.
5980483 I'm pretty sure that's against international treaty.
5980483 And besides, in my mind anything from Equestria is immune to regular radiation, and unless Twilight traveled 200 years into her future and stole Little Pips balefire bomb, we got no mega spells.
5981346 Just between us I would like to tell:
"I think international treaty is nothing when we are talking about country whose population fastly converts into cartoon ponies which transmit "The Ttransformation disease" to other people"
5981495 Even so, the US wouldn't bomb its own cities!
5981548 But the Russia could do this ;)
I think what when US epidemic will be too noticeable where must be a summit (or something like that) of European Union and CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States,such countries as Belarus,Russia,Armenia,Kazakhstan) (or just Euporean Union).I just don't think what disease,that turning people into cartonn ponie is nothing to worry about.
5981633 I'm pretty sure someone had to have taken Russia's nukes away after the cold war.
5981669 Russia and US have an agreement since 2002.They had to utilize 2/3 of their nuclear weaponry.
However I don't belive those protocols.It's just like bio-weapon utilizing.Nobody knows what happrning in CDC (US) or "Vector" lab (Russia).They can weponize smallpox (if not they not weaponized it yet) or something like that and we will never know about that until someone will show this weponized strain.
And yes,CDC and Smallpox."Vector" lab and CDC are last places in civilized world where smallpox contains.And I do not mentioned Black Plague and Anthrax yet.You can only wonder what will happen when bioterroris will attack CDC in chaos...
5981774 Well the CDC has a new plan Z, if attacked and there's no other option, gas the entire place with H1P1!
5981925 Why not chlorine or zarin?Both are very lethal and effective.They can easilly stop any attack or containment breach.However fill entire place...
However killing all people inside - is not the best strategy.
5981971 H1P1 is non-lethal, and may help in the long run... not that useful, that's why its plan Z.
5981975 However I think what the best option for plan Z - self-destruction of the facility.But I don't think that CDC will risk so much.
However it still transforms people.And yes,using a disease with no treatment protocol or vaccines/cure is a very,very big mistake...
5982072 It's never going to be used, so why have a plan Z in the first place?
5982072
The disease can't be detected since it's partially magical, and no equipment can detect magic on Earth thus far.
It appears to just be a flu with a longer than normal sick time. It's 7 days before the transformation begins and it's apparent that it's not normal, and most people would try to hide the transformation until they couldn't anymore.
In short, by the time it's apparently an epidemic there will be infected everywhere already, and attempting to use nukes will be pointless.
5982205 And using a nuke would be pointless seeing as normal radiation doesn't affect equestrians, it has to be magical radiation (and we don't use it because its not a thing for 200 years!)
5982396
So ponies can wander around an irradiated landscape with no problems at all? Provided it's 'normal' radiation.
5982408 Correct, as long as its not balefire then they should be fine.
5982422
It seems ponies will be living around Chernobyl as a sanctuary, I suppose?
5982500 That is if they find that out.
5982396 Radiation is NOT the primary hurting factor.It is some sort of side effect just because main goal of the bombs is to destroy,not to make land unliveable.
Do not forget about primary non-radiation factors:
Light radiation (or Light emmiting) - thermal emission from luminous part of the explosion.Causes major scorches and blindless
Blast and Blast wave - I think there is nothing to explain.Blast and Blast Wave can easilly destroy almost everything (is not everything).
And yes - Equestrian physics is nothing in our world.
Also,what about PIV (Pony immunodeficiency virus)?
If scientists will create and find the fastest way to transmit PIV through converted (fully transformed) people and their immunity system without infecting healty humans then days of ponies will be counted.
Sounds like fantastic,but hey,we are talking about fanfic about disease that transforms people into cartoon ponies.
5983934 Yes, ponies are not immune to being disintegrated, but the thing is, why would anyone want to do that? I'm pretty sure that ponies evolved weaponized cuteness.
5983955 Note above paragraph. also that is pointless, Ponies are immune to human disease's and the cure for PIV is kept safely next to Celestia's childhood toy's.
5984253 Weaponized cuteness?Probably.But this will work on children and teenagers.I think what paranoia will be more powerful than cuteness.And this is decisive moment.
About PIV cure... We can't cure HIV,what can humans or ponies think about PIV?PIV must be uncureble,fast spreading virus
what tricks immune system (like H1P1 does) making pony's nature immunity uselles against human diseases.
Also how cure for nonexistent virus could be created?
5984401 Simple, MAGIC!
Twilight could cure H1P1 with magic (She can only do this with ponies but thats beside the point) so why not other viruses.
5984410 I really don't know how magic could help with this.
UPD. So I'd like to mention what PIV is uselles itself.But then you use it in combination with weponized [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] strains it is very useful.
5984417 If Twilight can cure the flu without trouble than curing a disease such as HIV should be easy, also there is no pony equivalent to HIV since we got it from chimps, and ponies are never seen with chimps.
1)Capture some fully transformed humans
2)Make expirements on them
3)Infect group wit mutated high-virulent HIV strain
4)Proove effectivity of the strain
5)Release infected group
6)Bomb country with weponized strain of [REDACTED] flu.
7-9)??????
PROFIT!Large amount of dead ponies!
