Outbreak! Virus 'Z'

Chapter 24: Purple Destiny

Ringleader's POV

Purple. The black turned to purple. F*cking purple. Why not blue or green or even red? No, just purple. IT'S NOT EVEN MY FAVORITE COLOR!!!!

Samurai's POV

I wake up to see Larry place a purple rag over Gaby's eyes. He says that it will help her just in case she wakes up with the sun in her face. I roll my eyes and go about my business. I look around camp for Sam-Sam. Ever since Gaby disappeared I had taken the role of taking care of Sam-sam. I find her resting under a shady tree. Once she sees me she sits up and wags her tail. I smile at her and pet her head. She closes her eyes in content. I stop and wave for her to follow me.

I take her on walks around the perimeter of the camp. One, for her to get exercise. Two, to see if there are raised for her to eat. I kind of got used to it by now, and by used to it I mean looking away and trying not to gag. After that we head for a small river that's a short distance out of camp. They finally gave me permission to leave, but not too far, since they're a little on edge from the attack. I don't mind. We reach the river and Sam-Sam jumps right on in, splashing me in the process. Sometimes I join in with her. I laugh while I cover my face. She noisily splashes around just having a blast.

Once she's done she gets out and shakes off most of the water. We follow the river back to camp. Once there I see Larry watching me. He knows my path. I blow a kiss at him and walk towards where Sam-Sam was earlier. That's her chill spot. Lush with green grass so that no dirt can taint her beautiful coat. It needs to be trimmed.

Archer's POV

While Emma was away I watched over Gaby. She kept mumbling things over and over. Like 'purple'. Can she see? I mean of course she can see but can she 'see'. I switch the rag with another that's a darker shade of purple. She complains. Saying things like 'f*cking purple' and 'hate this color'. I'm just glad she's okay. Who knows, maybe she'll wake up soon.

Ringleader's POV

Just my f*cking luck. The purple disappeared only to reappear a little darker. Woopty-f*cking-doo. I wish it had just went back to black.

To be continued...

-note- sorry this is only half the size of a regular chapter, but I wanted to get this out as soon as possible since I finally got a feeling of stress relief today. I really didn't want this to be hanging on me, especially since I finally finished an extremely stressful project that was due at the beginning of school. I just want the rest of my weekend to be calm and quiet. -pancake out!
