Official date: ok, it's obvious I don't know where I am or when it is so imma stop with these intros. It's no use.

"So with the passing of time it's getting harder and harder to tell what day it is. The immunity has started to wear off, so I have to reapply. But not only does it halt the transformation for a few weeks, it slows it once the effects wear off. After re-applying it like sunscreen, the bite marks faded, disappearing almost immediately. I turned the mine shaft into a bunker, and it's actually pretty cozy in here. I found an old mattress in one of the trash heaps the bitten had mysteriously created. Plus I raided a store and found a kerosene candle lantern as well as extra candles and I found food. This will hold me over for a few weeks, hopefully. Rations will be in place to make this last as long as possible. I'm just kinda glad I'm the only one here. Although it gets pretty lonely. I haven't seen anyone I recognized other than the girl I had shot over a week ago. No sign of my family... or any of my friends... I miss them. It's so lonely here. All I have is time to think, and thinking is bad. Every time I close my eyes, I see his face. We were separated in school. The alarms went off, and all the students thought it was all a drill. It was a code red, but they told us instead of staying in indoors, to go home, get our families and get below ground. The entire school was in panic, thinking it was something really terrible. He and I met up in the courtyard, as well as a few of our friends. Deriah, Sasha, Skie, Christina, Stephanie, Elisa, Emerick and Jalieke were all there as well as me and Ashton. Hexicaius was at his school and i never got to see him that day. That was the last time I saw any of them. I didn't even get to say goodbye. I never would've thought we would've been separated. We had agreed to stay together and collect our families and get to the bunker we had built in our free time together. But we were attacked. We all fought side by side against the people we thought were our friends. I was fighting back to back with my Ashton, and then suddenly I was alone. I didn't know what to do, so I ran to the nearest shelter. That's when I was chased into the office building. The world was in chaos. It was as if Discord had taken over our world instead of Equestria. And every time I close my eyes, I see his face, a disappointed look on it, as if he was blaming me for us being separated. I hope they all found shelter somewhere, and aren't out there right now, roaming as mindless corpses. i had found the bunker we had built as a joke one afternoon. it was in shambles, which was to be expected. it was only made out of tree branches and twine. but seeing it broken had almost made me lose all hope. but i know this new bunker will be better. it's made of reinforced steel and is sealed off and hidden so they can't find me. i just hope it's enough.

This is Amy Rose signing off, as I hope for the best, not for me, but for my friends.
