The house of Survival / don't go out at night

My life slowly turned into weeks then into months . It took a long time to realise how long it has been since Myself and Flurryheart left our infected mother.
However now I got to protect my family if they are OK.

A few months after the infection began

I woke up very upset; I kept on shaking , I only had my big sister left. My mum was infected and never heard from other family members since everyone escaped.
We stayed in the castle for a few months and written a diary but...

We had to leave home. Our mum said it was time to let her go. I kept feeling gloomily in my head.
My sister tried hiding everything.
Before we left; we saw our mum leave blood all over the floor with skin and crystals over her skin.
I wanted to hug her one more Time but we could get infected like our other friends and family possibly.

I stared when I left the castle with silently.
The place we used to call home is now like ashes town ( where the infection began).
The houses in the streets were quite and houses had wood over the windows and doors.
My sister and I didn't know anywhere to go but we hopefully would know soon.
We kept walking in the wasteland.
We saw little scratches and blood all over the floor and buildings.
We luckily bringed weapons that we could fit and food supplies.

We remembered when the infections began because many ponies got infected because of many things. I did remember when our dad left and never came back.

As we walked we didn't see any survivors so we decided to walk and hide to find somewhere to see refued.
We didn't know if there were pandemics around still; we remembered when nurse red heart was supposed to head up north but she never came.

When me and flurry made it to a forest he hid in the biggest Bush we could find because infected ponies or creatures would try attack us.
I randomly had a bad feeling that we can't sleep because we would be attacked in our sleep. I told my sister flurryheart about it and she said to me " I will keep guard because your mental health has been bad for months." I agreed and watched.

A couple hours passed and alot of breathing and insane laughing shot into my ears. Tears fell down mu chick's. I later felt my sister's hoof trying to calm me down. Flurryheart tried to use her spells so then no monster noticed us.

I kept on thinking about our mum; her face was bloody with sadness , black showed on to her aswell.

When I woke up flurryheart was sleeping for a bit. I watched for flurryheart and no monster came up to us.
Once flurryheart woke up,I told flurryheart , I watched her to protect eachother. She is all I have left..

We began to leave the Bush even though it could of infected us. We walked even though food could infect us.
We stumbled onto a dark cave and noticed a figure in there.
We both decided to shine our horns. There was a creepy stallion smiling.
Me and flurryheart both decided to run in this forest.

We are only a quarter of the forest.
We always walked by dead animals fearing they could turn into zombies; we were told as foals that they were mare tails but are they?

Later ,Flurryheart decided to try get more food but I suggested it won't be safe because they were probably infected. So we both agreed on that we should rashin.
I told flurryheart a few minutes later that if wanted to clean ourselves at a river or lake we should check if it could get us infected. It is also the same for not cleaning ourselves often.

When it started to become dark we randomly saw a familiar face who wasn't effected.
The light blue mare had tears rolling down her face. Reminding me of when our pets died and vanished one day.

The blue mare was comet. She had lots of dirt and a bag with her needs. Me and flurryheart could not tell how many months she has been traveling.
We only left home; me , flurryheart forgotten about it.
We told comet about what happened days or weeks.

Then we found another place to sleep. Flurryheart watched me and comet again.
A nightmare kept going through my head. I did know these infections were a nightmare. I still never could never think of how mum felt during the early months and before we left her. She was traumatized when she realised the family has fallen apart. She didn't see my brother or skylar not even her auntie. The worst part happened after dad left us. Mum decided to go to the gardens to have space even though we had many rooms. There was survivors but they got infected, and they had to putted into cages like mum later did.

Mum the day she went to the gardens she kept picking things so then we got things to do. I did write a diary which is still on me.
My mum bring crystals home that day with some plants and leaves. She washed them just in case they were infected. We were lucky though but our mum went out again later on.
Then that's when she began getting sick. The sickness began effecting her physical and mental health.

Later her state worsened that we putted her in a cage with things to try make her happy. Flurryheart had a view of this day but it feels like it is long forgotten.
I woke up with Flurryheart and comet with their state changing. I slowly noticed roots on me so got them off before I could get infected.
I did the same to my last hope of survival.
It felt like everyday I had one more or nothing.
Flurryheart knew that having atleast a meal will keep us from not getting infected.
We usually had blackberries because they never got infected like simple food e.g cakes and salt. Fake meat also got infected some point but herbs usually stopped the effect.

I learned what can keep me safe for the few months to come.
