Chapter 2 : The Grand Escape.
When I arrived at the docks, I wasn't the only one. Thousand and thousand of ponies wanted to get on the Gustloff. But you needed to get a ticket, due to the status of "Important Military Docks." I got a ticket (I was lucky!) Then I boarded the Gustloff. I needed to find a room, and quick, before they were all took. So I went to the pool. I saw there was at least 300 ponies. But I had no choice. I was going to sleep in the pool. (The pool is empty, by the way.) I installed my stuff ; radio, camera, soft bed, pillows, etc. then an hour later, it was time.
The Gustloff had took sail for the first time in 4 years.

Chapter 3 : The night aboard the Wilhelm Gustloff.
I was trying to sleep. But sleeping in a small pool with 372 people in it, thats quite hard. Even if you have everything to sleep. It was hot and disgusting, smells everywhere. So I descided to go up to the upper decks, realising that everything was covered with ice, even the anti-aircraft guns and the lifeboats. They were out of usage. Lifeboats cant be dropped, Anti-Aircraft guns cant be manned. So I took a walk. Then I visited the ship, then I went back to the pool. I finally got to sleep. "It will be a good night's sleep" I tought. then I got sleepy.
I woke up because of a strange sound, then I heard screams and water rushing into something. I instantlly knew the ship was sinking. then I got up and climbed up the pool's stairs. And when I was about to scream "Get up!, the ship is sinking!"............... The glass dome broke, letting water rush in, sharp ceramic and metal peices flying everywhere, then I saw Derpy Hooves running away from the pool. I did like her. Out of the 373 ponies in the pool, only 2 survived. Me and Derpy. While I was running in the corridor, I heard another boom, then I couldn't see anything.
Chapter 6 : The Unbeleivable Truth
When I woke up, I was in the lifeboat. Thousands of corpses were floating around it. I puked. I remembered the Wilhelm Gustloff and the Sinking. It was still night, and I did not saw any pony alive. I saw some red and green lights and an officer's corpse gripped to my lifeboat. I found a dry firework gun. I took it then shot in the sky. I heard a ship horn, then a not-that-large destroyer came. I recognized it. It was a little Germane M-Boot type 1940. I shouted "OVER HERE" and they threw me a rope. I got in the ship. I asked the ship's captain if I was the only survivor. He said no, that there was also 990 other lucky people who survived. I was like "Oh. Plenty." Then I remembered the number of people who boarded the ship.
10 000.
I said "Never mind" and went heat myself. I remembered how hungry I was. So I got to the dining room (not luxurious at all) and served myself a sausage with Frankfort. Yummy. I asked where we were going, the cap'n said ; Marelin.
Chapter 5 : The Final Stand of the Gustloff
...The third torpedo had hit the engine room. No more electricity. Complete darkness on a sinking ship. I stood straight here, without moving, like an idiot. then I felt some ice cold water going around my hooves. So I started walking slowly, trying to know where I was going. I bumped my head on 5 walls. My ear sense said to me that the ship was capsizing. No! It was just sinking by the side... By the side I was trapped in. I thought I was doomed. But then... the lights went on. I was like " huh? ". The rescue generator was on. So I managed to escape the ship maze. When I went to the upper decks, I saw that only one lifeboat was dropped. Because I was the richest one on the ship, I had some rights that the other ones had not. So I asked an officer how many ponies was on the ship. He said that 7564 were registered. I told him that 10,000 people were counted in. He said to me "Oh really, Sherlock" and he slipped on the ice and fell in the water. I saw a completely filled lifeboat and said to myself "At least theres people who survived this." But then an Anti-Aircraft gun broke free of ice, slipped on the deck and fell on the lifeboat. The ship was really tilted now. I heard screams below me. I looked over the fence of the deck (The ship was tilted so I could see the side of the ship) and saw hundreds of ponies crying for help in the indoor promenade deck, trying to break the bullet-proof glass. I then turned my head and saw thousands of them trying to break free the lifeboats of the ice without a tool. I also saw lifeboats falling on ponies, Officers shooting their own families then shooting themselves, I saw the four captains---- on a capsized lifeboat, watching the ship sinking in horror, thousands of ponies who felt fear, desperation and helplessness as their only was question was "Will i live or die?" I saw fillies, babies, everyone was panicing, crying desperately for help. I then jumped in a lifeboat, the ice cracked, the lifeboat was not hanging on the falling side of the ship. I then started to chew the ropes, with no success. I stole an officer's Luger and shot the ropes. The ropes cracked and the lifeboat fell. I watched the boat sink in awe. the ship was completely on its side now. A captain and an officer tried to break the bulletproof indoor promenade deck glass. Then they got pushed off by wind. The ship completely disappeared, and I fell.
Just Darkness.
