Part 17

****continued

Kaleb: He was just acting weirder than usual.

Flashback:

Kaleb: Grandpa are you alright? (Kaleb says in the kitchen standing across from his grandpa.)

Grandpa: Yeah im fine just tired. (He says coughing up blood.)

Kaleb: We need to bring you to the hospital. (He says grabbing his grandpa as he falls down to the ground.)

Kaleb: Ill be back I need to get my phone upstairs. (He runs upstairs to get his phone on his bed but gets detracted by the tv.)

Tv news reporter: There seems to be some sort of outbreak of some kind of virus. We advice everyone stay in doors with supplies. And stay away from any one who seems to have the virus. This includes vomiting blood and cannibalism we aren't sure at this time of any other affects to this outbreak. But gather your family and stay indoors unti it is contained. We will be back with more updates in a few hours.

News reporter: Thanks carrie back to you jim...

Kaleb: (I zone out for a second. Wait what outbreak?! My thoughts are interrupted by mara screaming.)

Kaleb: Fuck I forgot grandpa! (I run down stairs to see him bitting maras leg and shes on the ground  screaming trying to escape.)

Kaleb: Get the hell off her! (I push him a little to hard and he hits his head against the edge of the coffee table. And starts bleeding from there.)

(I run to him)

Kaleb: (I check if hes okay. And for a pulse but hes not.) Hes dead. (I say with wide eyes and fall to the ground. Oh crap mara. I walk over to her.)

Mara: (shes crying and wincing)

Kaleb: (I grab a kitchen towel to stop the bleeding. I need to get something to clean it.) Ill be back keep pressure on it.

Mara: (she nods while still wincing from pain.)

Kaleb: (I run to the downstairs bathroom to find something to clean it with. Why the hell would he do that? I killed him! What if mara dies from to much blood lose I need to bring her to the hospital. Is this part of the outbreak? All those questions are running through my brain while I look for the peroxcide. I find it and run back to mara but shes not there.)

(Instead theres a trail of blood going into the living room. I follow it and see her leaning over the cat doing something.)

Kaleb: Mara? (I get a closer look and it doesn't look like my sister it has red shot eyes and veins popping out everywhere. As its eating the cat... wait what?! I step back alittle. She notices and turns around and tries to attack me. I run to the kitchen and grab a knife and before I can think I stab her but she doesn't stop. So I stab her in the head.)
