The Bridge of Sickness

Shes Infected

The next morning Ansley wakes up earlier than everyone else so she makes some eggs for everyone. Right after Clare wakes up and walks to the kitchen. Clare sits on the stool beside her sister, Mari. Clare puts her hand on her sister's back and hugs her, "Thank you." Clare says then looks up at her sister, Mari looks down smiling "Your welcome-" Mari gasps and her eyes widen and her eyebrows raise, Mari's hand quickly goes over her mouth in shock. Brooke and Ansley turn their heads to look at what was so wrong. All of them gasp once they laid eyes on Clare.  Brooke jumps back with her hand on her mouth and looks at Ansley, Ansley's eyes quivered and looked at Ansley with a horrified expression. "Clare.. whats on your face?." Mari asked. Clare looked confused and touched on her forehead but didn't feel anything so she felt her nose still nothing, but then once she touched her cheek and felt her skin was tough and what felt like a pimple but was a few blisters and the tough green skin ran throughout her cheek onto her right ear and was expanding. Clare gasped and almost touched her mouth with that hand but Mari grabbed her arm stopping her hand from touching her face. "Clare you're infected and you touched it with this hand, go wash your hand it's gonna spread quicker" Mari told Clare.  Clare nods and jumped off the stool to go wash herself, Once she left the room everyone looks at each other. "What do we do we're probably all gonna get infected" Ansley says with her hands covering her face and started to sob. "What are we supposed to do" Ansley Shouted

Mari knew she had to be quarantined but how could she get away with it and heal her before she was fully infected, Mari couldn't imagine what would happen if that happened. Clare walks in the kitchen crying. "I'm gonna die" Clare yells as shes sobbing "Clare calm down come here let me cover your cheek, you need to stay away from us we cant let it spread, i'm sorry" Mari told Clare. She took a few steps toward her sister and Mari put some cloth and tape to fit onto the infected part of her face. "There now go into the guest bedroom.  Brookes mind is racing with thoughts "whats my mom gonna say when she comes home, what do i do, i cant just kick them out" She thinks to herself. Clare steps away crying and goes into the bedroom. Mari washes her hands, Brooke sits down and lays her hands on her face just thinking. Ansley couldn't stand the silence and had to break it. "There has to be a solution, i can look it up maybe there has to be something." Ansley said nervously, she just trying to help." Brooke sighs "There has to be something" They all get on there internet to search for anything to help or try. "all of these things don't seem real" Brooke says. "Click on that website" Mari said. Ansley clicked and scrolled pass the article of the story till they find the heading "How to Heal the Sickness" 13 people have visited the bridge taking on the challenge 8 have came out to have caught the sickness all have died after the virus took over the body. But only 1 has survived the virus. Still alive today, Though we have very little knowledge on how to heal the virus but to get more information meet the lady who survived and get the information. All we know is that you must talk with the spirit calm her and ask for it to be removed. Brooke looked at both Ansley and Mari. "We have to find the girl she can help us." Brooke yelled. Ansley scrolls to the bottom of the page to find her information and how to contact her. I found a phone number we should call. Mari calls on her phone but no answer. "She didn't answer.." Mari told everyone. Everyone laid back disappointed but suddenly her phone rang Mari went to go pick it up "It's her! She's calling back"
