no rest for the wicked hearted

Danny come on. I called to him

We need to go check on Katie. I said walking into the lab as Danny followed me.

She is still passed out. I dont see any signs of her forming into a Creeper I said.

Danny/ well I guess that is a good thing huh? I replied to him.

Marcus/ yeah, well it seems the vaccine is working so far. She has lost alot of blood Danny. But let's talk outside the lab for a moment please? I asked

Danny/ what's up man?

Marcus/ I'm sorry about your older sister Danny. I knew you where expecting more. But sometimes shit hits the fan, and we have to deal with life. I know it is hard, but I have been where you are before. It is not easy by no means. I really do think you should get some rest, and I will tell you if Katie has made any progress. I said with a light sadden smile on my face.

Danny/ yeah you are right Marcus. But I want to stay here just in case if she wakes up. I want her to see my face first. I said crying.

Marcus/ I understand. I replied back. Danny and I walked into the family room beside the kitchen, I went to go grab us some red wine and some glasses. Might as well drink until we drunk. I said laughing.

Danny/ yeah I here you on that. I grabbed a glass outta Marcus's hand and the bottle of wine, that he had placed underneath his arm. I popped that bad boy open like there was no tomorrow. Well there might not be a tomorrow if you think about it. I said to myself while pouring myself and Marcus a glass. Danny/ so do you think she is gonna come out of the coma. Do you think she is gonna become a Creeper? I asked him looking for a answer.

Marcus/ I really do hope so Danny all we can now is hope and pray. I said drinking my wine

Marcus/ I am really sorry about your older sister. I am sorry that she was turned into a Creeper. I wish we could have done more. But we where surrounded and Katie was bitten. And I did not know what to do. I'm putting all my focus on Katie, I'm going to try my best to save her life. All I can is do keep an eye on her and make sure the vaccine is working right. This is the first time that I have made progress. My priority right now is Katie. I said looking at my glass trying to not look at his eyes that holds tears within them.

Katie/ why is it cold, why do I feel so heavy? I cant move I am so scared? What I remember was Danny, Marcus and myself. We went into the base, and we where packing food and water and clothes that we needed. Then Danny yelled so loudly. I thought my ear drums where bleeding. But when I turned around, I saw my older sister Alinna. She was a Creeper! Marcus came rushing back into the and we rushed over to his aid. But the Creeper who once was my sister grabbed onto my arm so tightly I could not break free! The creeper pulled me to the ground and bit the living the hell outta me. I screamed, I could my heart beat. It sounded so weird? After that, it went black.

Danny! Danny! Danny! I yelled at the top of my lungs, trying to make my voice audible enough for him to hear. I just want my older brother. I just want my older brother to hold me like he did when father left to go find James. My older sister Alinna is dead. My older brother James is dead as well. Who else has to die? Why does everyone I love die around me? I want them back I said yelling at the top of my lungs.

Marcus/ shit did you hear that? I think that was Katie yelling! Come on we need to go to the lab I said grabbing him by his shirt collar. Pulling him along like a rag doll.

Danny and I ran into the lab. We see Katie looking up at us crying and calling for her other brother Danny. The look of horror plastered on her face. Her bright hazel eyes looking up at Danny and I begging for me to let her out. Yelling at the top of her lungs.

Katie you have to calm down, I need to check you first before I even unstrap you from the table. I said. I grabbed the stethoscope off the table near Katie. I listened to hear beat. Everything seems to be good so far. I pricked her finger for a blood sample. I put it under the microscope. I saw the XY virus being destroyed by the rabie vaccine. I said out loud.

Unstrap her Danny and get her some food and water I said.

Danny Katie and I, went the kitchen. Danny cooked something so disgusting that I did not have the heart to tell him it was gross. He said it is moms recipe.

I went back to my room and took a shower. I laid their looking at the ceiling, thinking how we almost lost Katie. I should have protected her better. But I was trying to push her away, trying to make her hate me.
