The Never Ending Fight...

Hunger

In the middle of the night I woke up with a panic the nightmares I keep having only seem to be getting worse and after each one I wake up thirsty and hungry. I slowly dragged myself out of bed and went into my breath room grabbing a cup out of the sink and filling it with water I drank three full glasses of water but it didn't help my thirst much. I knew what would and the professor told me it might be best to at least try. I sighed and slowly made my way into the kitchen and opened the small freezer door. Thanking my grandpa for fixing the generators before his death in my thoughts. Looking at the frozen meats i immediately got grossed out being a vegetarian in a monster infested world kinda sucks. but at the same time my hunger grew and my tummy growled. I didn't even fight the urge when it took over and i gave in and blacked out ...

In the morning I woke up in my bed covered in fir and blood. After cleaning up I checked the freezer the meats were still there. Sighing I kinda knew a poor animal roaming outside my home must have met its death. It happens every now and then a pet goes missing id black out waking up covered in blood. hopefully last night i would get lucky and it would have been just a stray cat or rat. So i wouldn't have to explain to a worried pet owner that a wild animal must have got in past the town walls. I guess I should get ready today's gonna be a long day were having a town meeting about James he already lost his daughter and wife but he still broke the rules. After getting dressed in black skinny jeans and shirt and my old pair of black leather boots I grabbed my gun and walked out the door looking calm and ready for war but inside I was shaking trying to keep my act together...

Before going to town hall I walked to the small jail cell in the center of town and walked in I nodded to Calvin my deputy and walked though the back door James stood and walked to the front of his cell I could see the shame and sadness on his face. I took the keys of the wall and unlocked his door and stepped inside his cell and set down on the small bench. He walked across from me and set on his bunk. "Why James" I asked he dropped his head and cleared his throat. "I figured if I used your blood on a small infected it would cure it". But when it started to Moorp and multiply I had enough time to put down two of its baby's before it grew ten times it's size and attacked my partner..." He paused. my first question was answered after taking a small breath he continued and started to pace " at first it started out fine the animal pupils were going back to normal but something went wrong and it fought the cure" he stopped and sat back down. " I'm sorry Amanda I know what you must do and I'm ready to die with honor" he spoke it strongly but I knew it was a lie. I shook my head " how many and how strong" I asked. "The one you shot was the mother the baby was the one that got away. How strong is he I do not know but you might need help in killing it" he said and laid down with his arm over his eyes. "I don't need any help James I'm stronger then most husbands" I snapped and he sighed and sat up again. " of course you are Amanda your blood took in the virus and welcomed it. You may be the only cure to this dam thing I only wish I sent my daughter out to play before hell broke loss. Will you make sure to bury me next to my wife and her please?" The change of subject saddened me I didn't want to think of busy another member of the life. I got up and unlocked his cell and stepped out before walking out the door I paused. "Ill try to get you exiled and ill even send you a new partner so you can continue. Just don't kill this one." I snapped the last part And even with my back toward Him I felt his shudder and cringe. I walked out and didn't look back until I got to the court house doors.
