Wilted.

16; A hero and a fire.

Hours had passed. Barely a day had gone by. Alex changed. The disease process had sped up. Azrael lost it, he ran toward the meeting area where a fire was kept, Sam, Michael, Issac, and Phoenix sat there. "WHERE THE HECK IS HE?!" He demanded, eyes wide with fury.
Keegan stepped out from behind a corner, a grin on his face again. The yelling had caught the attention of the rest of the group. Fear rose in Issac's chest. "Az-?"
Azrael grabbed a remote from one of the metal shelves, and ran over to the man, throwing a punch into his face. "YOU SPED IT UP." He yelled, throwing Keegan back a bit by the impact. The scientist chuckled darkly. "I was doing her a mercy! She was in pain!" He admitted, his tone had laughter in it. Azrael grabbed the man by his collar, dragging him toward a forklift that held a wooden crate in the air, they tied a rope around his neck and looked toward Phoenix and nodded. A signal. The shorter survivor ran away from the group, understanding the situation.
Azrael stood on the platform, a device in his hand, a crazed look in his eye." YOU HAVE RUINED ENOUGH FOR US. I'VE SPENT DAYS. WEEKS. MONTHS TRYING TO PROTECT MY FAMILY. MY FRIENDS. AND IN DOING SO LOSING THE ONLY PERSON WHO WAS EVER THERE FOR ME. HE GAVE ME UNDERSTANDING AND LOVE WHEN I NEEDED IT MOST AND NOW THAT YOUNG MAN IS DEAD BECAUSE OF THIS DISEASE... SICKNESS YOU'VE CAUSED. YOU HAVE HURT SO MANY PEOPLE. YOU'VE KILLED THOUSANDS MORE. YOU ARE NO DIFFERENT THAN A DEMON OR THE MONSTERS YOU'VE CREATED. AND NOW YOU WILL SEE THE FURY OF A CHILD. A SURVIVOR. AND THE WRATH OF GOD." The boy pressed a button, and what can only be explosives began to explode. Phoenix grabbed Issac's arm and ran out of the factory with Sam and Michael close  behind. Issac squirmed, his eyes flooding with tears and smoke. "WE HAVE TO GO BACK FOR HIM!" Sam grabbed Issac, and carried him in his arms. "IF WE GO BACK WE'LL DIE TOO!" He yelled back, Michael stared at the explosion consuming his son and the man. Eyes wide with shock and fear. "AZRAEL-" He screamed.

Outside, the rain killed the burning building, thunder boomed in the air and Michael crumpled to the ground, Isaac crying behind him hugging Sam.
"Azzy!-"
He screamed, his voice cracking with sobs.
The water of the sky causing the fire to slowly dissipate.
Michael got to his feet, Lobo behind him and whining,
He ran into the basically destroyed building, calling for his son. He spent hours looking for a body. Only for nothing to show. Could have his body been destroyed in the blast? The only body that showed was the scientist.
He looked through the debris, moving burned wood, metal and other materials. He found a log book. He read through it, he recognized the handwriting.

'Last Log. Azrael Maize.
Hey Dad. This isn't exactly the log I planned on making.
As you saw, I've been logging since Day one. Not daily... but occasionally. Anyway. If you're reading this. Alex turned or died which resulted in me killing the scientist and myself. I love you. Find mom. Find Cameron. Salem. Tell nana. I love them all. I love you. Fly high, old man."
