That’s it. I can’t be here.

From what I’ve heard on EQNN, the news channel, Cloudsdale just got put on the infected cities list. That...that confirms Rumble has the Plague, right? Well, anyway, I’m out. I don’t wanna get sick.

I’m packing the last of my stuff now; I’m gonna upload the telecast I’ve been watching on this entry, so I know what to look out for...or so I can tell if I have the Craze myself. Not a pretty thought.

“This is Ink Blot, reporting from EQNN. We have just gotten word that 3 more cities have been placed on the infected cities watchlist, and also informed us to tell you the symptoms to look out for, so to prevent you or your loved ones from falling ill with the Crystal Plague.

Infected Cities Watchlist:

Canterbury

Fillydelphia

Haliflanks

Trottingham

And this just in:

Detrot

Manehattan

Cloudsdale

The Crystal Plague originates from the Crystal Empire, and starts out with flu-like symptoms, but laters progresses to more severe signs such as schizophrenia, migraines, and vomiting blood. The disease is considered to be highly contagious; do not approach those who appear or are sick with this strain of flu. There is currently no known cure for this disease. Celestia has closed Equestrian borders, and several cities have even quarantined themselves off in an effort to limit the spread of the Plague, but it seems that new cities are being infected every week. We can only pray that somepony will save us all and this will all be over soon.

This is Ink Blot with EQNN, signing off.”

All right, about time this thing was done downloading! I need to get out of here NOW before my situation gets worse, and Cloudsdale might get full of sick, and possibly crazy, ponies.

I’m a little sleepy, but I think I can take a flight to Canterlot, cause according to the newscast, that place hasn’t been infected yet. I know a friend of mine who lives there, Lyra Heartstrings, can let me stay for a while, and help me get myself together. If I don’t fall asleep on the way there.

That said, I’d better get going. See you tomorrow.
