CURE

MASSACHUSSETS

"Sir"

"Yes?"

"We were attack"

"We lost over a hundred of our men"

"To what?"

"Some bandits sir"

"Shit, any survivors?"

"Yes sir, 14 only and they are not fit for travel"

"How long do we have until they are fully recovered?"

"2 months"

"....."

"....."

"We attack at winter, their much more easier to be attacked that way"

"Yes sir"

The soldier saluted and left black blue-lit room. The man looked over through the window and looked over to the many children being experimented on. The director of the FGHE, willing to kill innocent children for their own gain. Believing that the children's purpose is to die for the strong. The Director would go through great lengths just to perfect the DRACO antivirus that M.I.T has left. Despite the failure on every corner of attempts he still cannot stop and give up on the idea that a cure will be created out of his wrong ways.

At the early stages of the outbreak when the virus was new they came in contact with someone who is experimenting with the DRACO antivirus. He started to check through the papers to see if anything comes up, nothing. Every page he picks up, nothing. All of the papers that lead them to every failure led them deeper to no more possibility of a cure.

They have already failed on the early stages of the virus. They were supposed to create a cure after seeing the success on N2. DRACO managed to eliminate the cancer cells but something went wrong when it was tried on a rabies specimen. It "ate" the DRACO antivirus. It was not a perfected antivirus yet he carried on with it, the more he tried to recreate the antivirus the more he started to kill the children.

The director stepped down with the children, seeing them tied down to tables in order for their plasma to be taken and tested. Over a hundred children were in the same room as he is, now only 3. The others were taken away by some group to a different place. He started to walk across every table remembering the lies hat he told every children just to make sure the efforts for a cure or even a vaccine can be achieved.

'You children will be our hero"

"Really?"

"Yes, you have something in you that humanity needs in order to survive for the next years to come"

"Really?"

"I p-"

One of his soldiers came and disturbed him in his little imagination.

"Soldier"

"Sir, we spotted a problem, a horde is coming"

"Horde?"

"Yes sir, what do we do?"

"What we can do, kill them all"

"Yes sir"

The soldier left him to his own vices. He started looking over once more to every single room thinking of abandoning his project. His face and mannerism has started to show that he is slowly giving up on everything. He approached the 3 remaining children and talked to them. He asked the nurse to leave them be and so they did. He sat down with the children and he started to take off the needles inserted into them.

"What will happen to us?"

"Well, you tried your best"

"....."

"Sadly, we can't do things anymore"

"Are we going to die?"

"No, you'll to run away"

As he started to sing to them, an explosion happened. Beta and Foxtrot and their people came in and took the 3 remaining children, Beta can only look at him with her deepest condolences. They took the children away and the director followed them but separated away from the group. The three looked back at the director and they waved at him, Beta and Foxtrot told them that 'everything will be fine'. The children smiled hearing that and the little girl pointed at the director. Wandering what will happen to him. As Foxtrot turned around the Director is already in his own room.

Under his desk he pressed a button and there seems to be a countdown starting. He grabbed a gun under the desk and loaded a bullet. 'it works' He said as he loaded the magazine to his gun and he put it on his temple. As he was about to put his finger to the trigger, Foxtrot grabbed the gun and put it in his empty holster.

"Come with us sir, the kids need you"

The Director looked behind Foxtrot and saw one of the kids with him.

"I'm a monster Foxtrot, I killed children for something impossible"

"Well, luck you... this world has no room for regrets"

"Thank you"

"Now come on"

Foxtrot grabbed the Director and they started to run as the smell of kerosene fill the air. The Director picked up the little kid and they started to run. The room that was once filled with hopes and dreams for a cure turned into a slaughterhouse. An unknown nightmare for the remaining children and a chapter on how far a human's desperation can boil into has now closed.

The building has started to burn down starting from the horrific rooms where the children were being treated as guinea pigs for their failure of a attempt on a cure. The room has started to burn down and exploded. Foxtrot and Beta is being held on by one of the kids and they start to walk slowly against the horde, the Director and the little girl with her also did the same. They are some of the people who understood the dead's behavior.

After they cleared out from the horde they got into the trucks.

"Foxtrot?"

"Sir?"

"How about the other parts of the FGHE?"

"We didn't get them. that was only one of the real army"

"Have you told the people on that town about us?"

"Yeah, well except for you sir"

"I deserve everything from them"

"We told them everything we know"

"Good, we'll need it... and N2?"

"Natalia now, she's fine with one of their higher ups"

"Thank goodness"

After a long drive they finally met up with the other half of SPECTRE who stayed near the bridge after destroying it.

"Winter"

"Sir?"

"We need to prepare when winter comes"

"Why?"

"That is when they'll attack, they might have made it through their first winter.. but its not only the food and the dead they have to worry about"

"They have to worry about a sudden increase in population and a army on their backs... that it?"

"Exactly"

"....."

"We need to go faster"

"STEP ON IT!"

The trucks started to drive faster simultaneously, after 7 hours they have arrived on the town of Washington and now they start to prepare for the worst. They all got down and started to prepare the town.

"Sir"

"YES! I know what happened to HQ, we only have ourselves now"

"What do we do sir?"

"Scavenge everything you can get back at HQ, everything"

"Yes sir"

"We'll need as much fire power as we can to take that girl and continue research"

"The Director sir?"

"I heard he was taken captive by Foxtrot and his crew"
