“That could be simple...” Reagan said, leaning towards the vampire. “We could find almost anyone. We need a name, a photo, maybe something they owned. Some hair or fingernails or blood would be great too.”“The last one we can do,” Volita said. “Her name is Jaqueline Kessler. I sent her to do something, and I haven’t heard back from her in a very long time. But I know her kind well enough to know they don’t die easily. I’d like to help her, but I can’t do that if I can’t find…-

Amie woke from her sleeping bag to the first light of dawn. A glance at her phone told her just how strange that was—an hour and a half asleep, several times longer than she was used to. Odd. But her pony companion was still asleep, so she still had time to practice. She made her way into the bathroom, pulled the blinds closed, then turned up the lamp as bright as it would go.There was a mirror in here, so she could see her own body while she worked.Now if only she could figure out how she was supposed…-

Lauren wasn’t stopped and asked to explain herself by any of the supervising “ponies”. After seeing what had happened to her brother, she tried to see if her condition had been common. Though she couldn’t tell for sure at a glance as easily with these new bodies, it didn’t smell like there were very many stallions in the room. That was the word for a male horse, wasn’t it? The trend continued as she crossed the hall into the classroom where many of the office staff were congregating. The space…-

Lane didn't get nearly as much sleep as she would've hoped for that night, considering what was waiting for them in the morning. But Elisa obviously needed a simpler kind of support. There was no way she wouldn't be there for her, even if it made her a little weaker tomorrow. Besides, there was Cedar's other instructions lingering in her mind, keeping her awake even after Elisa finally stopped squirming. She couldn't make the trip as herself, or else invoke the wrath of enemies…-

Investigate the supercomputer lab on B3. (99%)Elliot had come this far, he wasn't going to just run away now. "Ruby thought there was something in the supercomputer lab, maybe something to do with the disease. We should check it out."Sam grunted noncommittally. "Kinda feels like we're running towards danger instead of away from it, Blue. I don't want anything to do with whatever is doing this to me."He held up one hand, flexing his stiff fingers. Elliot looked away from that too: they almost seemed…-

Lunch shouldn’t have been that exciting, really. Rose could’ve eaten at the stands with her sisters the way she usually did, but she wanted a little privacy. It was hard to stand out there selling flowers and listening to Lily completely ignoring the obvious signs of their ship sinking.At first she was pleasantly surprised to see her new roommate was still awake, and that she might be able to learn a little more about him. Then she saw what was behind him, and was entirely overwhelmed. Screaming…-

Tracy couldn’t help but grin as Bon Bon settled his plate in front of him. In terms of tasting alien food for the first time, this looked like it would be far more alike than it was different. What was I expecting, monkey brains? This isn’t Indiana Jones. Instead it was a velvety-looking pastry, not unlike the breakfast pies he’d seen in the frozen food aisle.“Dang that’s good,” he admitted. “I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that you’d know how to cook for…” He trailed off awkwardly.…

They didn’t have to wait long for the caravan to appear. It wasn’t all that loud, though Moriah found herself impressed by the resourcefulness she saw even at a distance. Most of the vehicles appeared to be military. As they drew closer, she was able to count a total of four vehicles: one cloth-covered personnel carrier, one covered military cargo truck, one fuel tanker, and one civilian semi towing what looked to be a daisy-chain of three different trailers. What the hell kind of engine was in that…-

Weave Through Backroads (87%)Elliot wasn't exactly excited to give up the wheel. But considering their last few experiences with law enforcement, there was only one choice that made sense. They could never pass for uninfected, not looking like they did. And if they actually ran into any healthy people, they might spread the disease!They had Zalenka's journals, and whatever data the supercomputer had calculated. Maybe they had the key to a vaccine, or even a cure. But they couldn't discover that information…
