I'm not feeling great... but i'll get to that...

Me, [[Lincoln]] and [[Tesla]] took 2 of the [[Pure-One]]s to our water basin. They explained that the green color was from tiny plants living in our water! Not healthy tiny plants I guess... [[File:powder.png|140px|right]] But at the Pure Plant they had white powder that could help make it clean again. A few handful should do it. Great news! This could solve our water problems!

The rest of the morning I helped with the museum project, it's going to be great! I found a great spot for that book about the mutant Deadpool, so everyone on the Ark can learn about this mutant from the Ancients and his amazing powers! 

The [[Pure-One]]s were not welcomed here, most of the people didn't trust them at all. So we decided to bring them home as soon as possible. But with all the unrest here at the Ark it would be best if [[Lincoln]] would stay here.

Only [[Bolt]] was missing, but [[Rianna]] found him outside of the Ark next to some broken vehicle. We could convince him to join us by making clear we wanted to use the bus. That way we could bring the [[Pure-One]]s home, and get the bus across the river to our Ark. [[Elona]] was sad to see us go, but understood and wished us good luck.}}{{NotebookPage
|page=We crossed the river with the raft. [[Bolt]] had the crazy idea to put the raft on top of the bus, and surprisingly it worked?! The first part of the journey was known territory, from L-16 to L-17 to K-18 to J-19. It went surprisingly fast with this bus!

Then we came to a new zone, I-20. It looked fine, decent roads and buildings. In the distance we saw 1 bigger building that stood out. [[Tesla]] saw some weird beasts next to it through the ''"goggles that make things bigger"''. I also had a look, and those beasts had to be Bitterbeasts! I've read about those in chronicler writings... they can spit acid and are bad-tempered. Better not go there! Also after an hour or so in this area we started to notice Rot-effects, so we moved on.

To H-20! It looked worse, more ruined buildings. But we could find a "nice" spot to spend the night under the overhang of a building. [[Tesla]], me and the [[Pure-One]]s slept under that overhang, [[File:leech.png|120px|right]]because there was not enough room in the bus.<br><br>In the middle of the night I was awoken by the screaming of a [[Pure-One]]. He yelled: "Get it off me!". It seems there were big black worm-like created sucking themself onto people. They were falling from the overhang! I took my knife and tried to stab the one attached to [[Tesla]]. But no luck, their skin was really thick.}}{{NotebookPage
|page=Others started to pull them off, and [[Rianna]] was burning the ones on the ground with fire. I saw one sliding towards me so emitted concentrated Rot on it... wait, did I hit my own arm? Paralyzing pain went through me and all went black...

I'm not sure how much time passed, but I woke up when [[Rianna]] was bandaging my arm. I was in the bus, but it was on a different location now. I really have to be more careful next time... but first lets get a few more hours of sleep...

[[File:lightburst.png|150px|left]]The next morning I already felt a bit better, [[Rianna]] did a great job. But then suddenly, when I resist the Rot in me, I felt something weird happening... It triggered some mutation and my skin felt different... I can now force it to emit a burst of light, and maybe even obscure myself by bending the surrounding light. This is scary and amazing at the same time!

I should try it out later, but first food. I cooked the contaminated grub and water me and [[Tesla]] had and gave most of it to the [[Pure-One]]s. It was all the water and grub I had, but I assumed [[Lutrell]] could give us some grub and water for the way back.

We were almost there, G-20 had less building and more dead vegetation. It was wet, but at least the roads were good enough. At some point we saw a square with a big black pillar.}}{{NotebookPage
|page=It had a weird metal-shine and was not rusted at all? Also we saw no doors or seems in it. What was that? [[Tesla]] wanted to have a closer look, but got a weird feeling when approaching it. So we decided to continue to the Pure Plant.

When we arrived at the lake, me, [[Tesla]] and the [[Pure-One]]s left the bus and started walking through the water to the Pure Plant. The others would drive the bus around the lake.<br><br>
