So I wasn't sure if i was even going to write this journal... but i think i need to do this if i ever want to put it to rest.
I've been reading everyones journals, blogs, and posts about the event on saturday night. It seems everyone has a different story to tell. Its hard to know what is truth and what is fiction from these, its probably due to the fact that people have been upset and want to point fingers. Now I'm not perfect ether, i wanted to put the blame on some people at first too, but thats why i've waited and cleared my mind first before writing this.
Everything you read in this journal is the true, and if there are facts that have not been confirmed as the truth i will say so and give as much info on it as i can. This is not a journal for blame, or for hate, it is to inform you of the events that took place.

To begin, i'll tell you about the start of the con...
Friday night started with us(~
DerangedSpazz and I) heading down to pick up her friend and get to the con. Once we had our passes we met up with some more friends and then we decided to go look around.
After a few hours the jpop dance opened, but even though there we're a number of people in the dance room, no one sayed and actually danced for very long...
Soon enough, Spazz and I had to leave becuase her mom was heading over to pick us up.
On Saturday morning we bused down to the convention and once again met up with our friends. On cet day more things we're open, and there we're panels that we could attend. We browsed though the dealers room and some of us went to the hetalia panel, or due to a typo it was the hentalia panel...
Shortly after the masqurade, I gathered all of our ouran cosplayers so we could prep for our Ouran fanservice panel. Although things didn't go as smooth as planned we still had a blast preforming it and i beleive the fans enjoyed it to.
Although the project d dance/rave (which ever you would prefer to call it) had started shortly before the panel did, we still had a get outcome of people showing up.
Shortly after the panel, a few of us had been just down the hall on upstairs talking to some friends when we heard on of the con staff saying not to drink the water because someone had laced it. I was starting to get worried because Scotty had drank some of the water and she said that she wasn't feeling to well. One of her friends had said before hand that she could use there hotel room, so her and i headed down there.
After she had drank some tea and taken a shower she began to act unusual. But we tried our best to keep it together and remain clam for her sake. Soon some others came to the door telling us that the con was shut down and people we're getting really sick at the dance/rave.
I knew I had to get ahold of Spazz, so I told them to watch over Scotty and I headed down the hall to the top of the stairs. What I saw I couldn't beleive...
There we're people being carred up the stairs and out the main doors, I was ambulances pulling up and stretchers being pulled out. After it sunck in I looked for someone i knew and asked them what had happend.
The answer I got was that a few people had been hit with drugs and crashed during to dance/rave. At that point I knew I had to find Spazz and the others. I ran outside finding some people who said that she was ok, but i still didn't know where she was.
Now knowing the fact that there we're drugs, i painiced. I knew I had to get back to Scotty, but I also knew that I had to find Spazz. So I told one of them the room number of where Scotty was and told them to find spazz and get her to meet me there.
While all of this is happening, more ambulances are pulling up and the cops arrive, people are crying and sobbing all around me and others are carrying out there friends who we're injured or drugged.
I ran back down to the room, we walk Scotty out and to one of the paramedics. While we're walking I see Spazz run by, but because we we're to far away I knew she couldn't hear me, but at that point i knew she was safe.
After Scotty talks to the paramedics I turn around to go see if i can find Spazz, and surely enough we both meet at the door way. But then Spazz's mom showed up to get us, thats when I bursted into tears on ~
Cult-Clueless's shoulders because I didn't want to leave Scotty. My friends told me that they would look after her and to go home.
Spazz and I cryed all the way back to her house, at one point chase called me and told me that everything was going to be alright and that Scotty was taken to the childerens Hospital just to make sure.
Later, Scotty texted saying that they found no trace of drugs in her. It turns out that she was just crashing from the mental trama of the situation. And the next morning Spazz and I got news that everyone hit by the drug had made a full recovery and that the con was still on for sunday.
We decided to go back that day to see how people we're holding up. I saw some of my friends there and we went on with our plans for the day. Still, some of us we're still full of emotion from the night before, you could see it on the faces of those who actually witnessed the event. The ones that had called it a night before the event also wanted to know the story...
There we're alot of rumors spreading around about alot of different things. Plus people where putting out blame on others to how this happend... but everone was still rallied up from it and thats when more problems occured...
Just to clearafy:
It has been confirmed that there we're drugges involved in this matter, on the naru2u website there was an update for it.
Some of the people who where hit DID in fact have drugs in there system.
Yes there was someone who coughed up some blood as well.
If you have actual prof of any of my info is wrong please post a comment, but i do not was any rumours on this journal. I only want facts. You may post your intake on this situation as well.
This event will forever stay in our memories, and hopefull will never have to be expireanced again!
