The mother let out a sad whimper and slid to her knees.
Leaning over the childs bed, she kisses her babys
forehead. The doctor let himself out.
The diseased kid was just another of the many that had died
earlier that week. This was becoming normal to Damon, no
longer surprising or mourned by him.

The trail leading from her front door into the woods was
slightly lit up by the moon, she gripped the flashlight like
it was a gun and pointed it forward so she was aware of what
was around her.
Her mind was anxious for resolution, she didnt know how to
deal with her kids, and certainly had no clue how to
approach Damon and discuss his stupid issues. Knowing they
didnt concern her, she wished that there was an off button
to make him stop behaving the way he was.
Now deeper into the forest.
GENEVIEVE
Uhhh.
She sighed abruptly and kicked a branch out of her way.
GENEVIEVE
I hate this place.
Talking to air, there wasnt a word she truly meant.
The walk had gotten her a little lost, however she didnt
realize anything accept for the branch she had mushed into
the dirt.
The forest was dense and isolating to anything inside it.
Genevieves flashlight began to flicker this scared her and
quickly wiped away all other thoughts, besides being trapped
in the dark.
GENEVIEVE
OH NO! CRAPP!!
She bulged her body forward and paused her walk. She slammed
the end side of the flashlight frantically as her heart
raced.
GENEVIEVE
God you piece of GARBAGE! Turn ON!
The "Piece of Garbage" turned back on. To show her relief
Genevieve swallowed a huge gulp of air and blew it out in a
massive sigh. The sigh was so large that she leaned over and
placed her hands on her thighs.

GENEVIEVE
Whoa.
She clawed her fingers through her hair and rested her head
on her hand for a quick moment.
GENEVIEVE
Im going home.
To stand straight up she pointed the flashlight forward,
there was something stretched out on the path about 10
meters a head her.
Genevieve squinted her eyes and tilted her head to the side
like a curious dog would do.
She took short slow steps towards was was lying on the
floor. As she got closer her eyes grew widely.
GENEVIEVE
UHAHHHHHH!
An man was crawling from somewhere. The dark skinned person
had mud that coated his forearms and knees, he had curtailed
blood on the back side of his neck. It must have come from
his face however that part of him was resting in his left
arm.
She, eyes wide open, grasped her mouth to hold in further
screams.
MAN ON THE GROUND
Help me. Help us.
His voice was raspy and deep, he was unable to to fully lift
his neck but got his face high enough to where Genevieve
could see his eyes.
Blood coated his forehead and chin, there were blisters all
around his front side, which clearly meant he had caught a
bad case of the disease that spread throughout the villages.
GENEVIEVE
Whos us? Whats your name? Why are
you like this??
MAN ON THE GROUND
The white, man. He. Did it.
after spitting out his last words the man dropped his head
back into his arms, and died.

GENEVIEVE
Hello? I can help you tell me how
to get to where you came from!
When she didnt get a response she knew he was gone.
Genevieve was left clueless, she reached down his warm and
wet neck to check his pulse. He was dead.
Her flashlight started to flicker once more.
GENEVIEVE
Please? NO!
This time it didnt flicker. The brightness dimmed and burnt
out.
Pounding again and again on the light. She panicked and
stepped over the body, knowing in his shape he couldnt have
gotten very far, and there was no hope in going the way she
came.
GENEVIEVE
What was wrong with him? The White
Man, must be one of the workers.
God help me.
Nothing was visible the trees were to thick for even the sky
light.
She tripped on a couple tree stumps and had another panic
attack before the forest was faintly outlined by dim light.
3 minutes had passed, and she saw a garage type building
which was hidden between bundles of bushes and plants. Tiny
square windows gave out a bright light and drew her towards
it. Here must be where where the man had crawled from.
GENEVIEVE
What is in there, most of the
people dont have electricity.
She stopped and glanced at the windows to figure out what
was inside, however they were too high up to see in.
GENEVIEVE
Nothing good.
There wasnt going to be anything good inside, the man was
escaping. Putting aside that fact she walked closer and let
her curiosity get the best of her.
She circled to the front, of course locked up with chains
the garage was not going to open.

There were dragged lines along the dirt, which she followed
to a corner where a hole no bigger than her waist was carved
out.
GENEVIEVE
You were here!
She whispered to herself.
GENEVIEVE
Uhh! It reek.
The inside let out a horrid smell, she knew the smell.
GENEVIEVE
Something, somebody is rotting.
She pulls her shirt above her mouth and fits inside the
hole.

GENEVIEVE
Honey? Why are you here, what is
this place?
After she asked she got a better look at the girl, and
walked closer to the bedside. On her body just as the man
had, were the same sores. The child was sick too, as long
as she didnt caugh on her she would be safe.
GIRL
Get me out please, the White man
will be here.
GENEVIEVE
What white man, who are you talking
about?
GIRL
Get me out.
The girl was struggling to open her mouth, the words she
spoke were slurred.
Just now noticing, the girls wrists were tied to the side
of the bed. Needle holes swelled up that same arm.
Genevieve backed out of the room she was in, and walked
further down the building.
Approaching the foot she glanced at the body, this one was a
boy.
GENEVIEVE
Tell me what you are doing here?
Please?
He was also clearly infected . She got closer. He had
rashes all over his body. This child had been the same one
that had the seizure at the daycare the day before.
Genevieve broke out in tears.
GENEVIEVE
What the HELL! No, please no? What
are you doing here.
Tears filled eyes quicker than she could breathe. On the
side of the child on a night table there was a note book
flipped open and written on. She picked it up and read.
PRONOUNCED DEAD EARLY MORNING JUNE 5. TESTS CAUSED SEIZURE
AND RESULTED IN FAILURE. MORE PATIENTS SHOULD NOT TAKE SAME
DRUG, FATAL.

GENEVIEVE
Testing? Nobody knew about this?
They are children, my children.
Her crying impaired her speech, she was wrecked from
witnessing what she had seen in the last hour, it was too
overwhelming. She turned around and approached the wooden
desk, which didnt match the glowing white walls at all.
She picked up a picture frame too see what the picture was.
It was of her and Damon sitting on the steps to their hut.
