The next days among the camp were flowing easily, the boss, Taehyung, getting the time to stay near Jungkook. Periodically, they would check his wounds and see that he is healing properly.
Until... one day... when they took a probe of his blood...
One of the doctors, which Taehyung trusted the most, found out that inside the blood cells were some "new" cells which seemed to "suture" the places where the boy would have been infected long time ago. His body was healing and fighting against them.
How? They were planning to find out. But for that, they had to get Jungkook from Taehyung. A hard task.

Taehyung's POV:

"Boss!"
"Boss..."
"Hey, are you okay? You are zoning out."
"Don't fucking touch me. Don't you think this is madness?! Whatever you found into that dose could be literally... ANYTHING! In this world, we all can get toxins, radiations-"
"Boss, we ran a test on his wounds and all of them have a base of those cells, preventing it from touching the body. It is clear. He is the cure."
"Bullshit. You just want to kill the damn kid!"
"Boss-"
"Shit, get him!" The nurses said and stole the weapon from a guard, trying to shoot after me. I was fast enough to pick the boy up from the table, shooting her right through the head, glaring at the other doctors which were corrupted by fear. Sirens and red lights were screaming through the whole medbay, but I headed through the shortest route, escape and taking the boy out being the first priority. The guards were against me and the medics were announcing everything thought the speakers, telling that the boy is the cure for the world and that they should stop me at all cost. I felt a little amused by their efforts. However, Jungkook was the one who got uneasy by all the things that were going on, his heart beating faster even if he was sedated.

"THERE! IT'S HIM!"

The bullets passed just a few inches from my head, my pistol emptying after knocking dead the squad at the end of the hallway, the footsteps of the other squad echoing through the hallways. However, they sounded too messed up to be them. What could it be... Then it hit me. The guards were creating a huge noise along with the sirens and the gates were surely less guarded.
"Infected..." I whispered to myself and bent to take the rifle from a dead guard, checking for magazines. It was enough, thankfully. Jungkook started squrming a bit and clinging to me. "Don't worry, I'll get us out of here..."

...

There was chaos, blood, scratches... torment. I was moving through flooded basement just because the base was surrounded with infected, hoping that the door at the end would still lead to the backside of the yard. There, I would have found the car and gotten the hell outta here-

But that was just dreams and hope. In reality, the surroundings had something else planned for us. A hard knock was heard in the metal doors which I tried my best to seal after jumping inside the basement. The sounds were coming one after another and I could tell the infected were trying to chase us. But then.... a voice came from that side. It was broken and it sounded like who ever was talking was using their last breath to make those words.

"Heee...lp...! You bastard...! Gave the world- FOR A BOY!!!" The next thing I heard was a sharp cry, a scream and the roughness of the infected thudding against the doors while supposedly killing the dying man. I recognized the voice as being the one of a doctor, but who cared anyway?

I sighed and kept going forward, avoiding the snaps of lights coming from the torn lightbulbs, the metal doors that fell into the water and the currents that were sometimes pushing me around and unbalancing me. With a constant struggle and a drain of energy, I managed to get up the little staircase which took me to the control panel. It was connected to the backdoor of the base, the one and only escape route I had in mind. I pressed it once ㅡ nothing. I pressed it twice and three times, breaths starting to quicken.
