The sun has just set as the streets emptied, some still walking in a hurry, most of the ponies have already gone home, the sky already darkened as the shops slowly closed. You walk around one of the streets as you notice an alley, light coming from it and a strange sound of something moving. The alleyway seemed strangely empty and dark. The sound of dripping can be heard echoing in the space.

(5 Stages of the Shadow blight =

Stage one: mild coughing, mild muscle aches and sometimes strange aggression. Stage two: the pony starts coughing harder and wheezing, as if they cant breath well, the muscle aches turning into spasms. the pony starts coughing out a black liquid, along with their personality getting more unstable and aggressive. Stage three: the pony's eyes would start turning solid black, black veins coming from their face as more shadowlike growths start. Stage 4: pony starts mutating more noticeably, shadow like growths coming out from their body. They also become fully hostile, turning on anyone who's nearby. Some ponies get shadowy growths all over or most of their body, others get some horns and spikes. Stage 5: is when the pony fully transforms into a mindless killing machine, with no more traces of its original self. They hunt down ponies to corrupt and spread the infection.)
