Zach arrived at the crash site before anyone else. Looking around he couldn't help but be a bit amazing and afraid all at the same time. Madison arrived shortly after cautious of being spotted by Zach. She gave it up and finally approached him. "Find anything interesting?" She spoke curiously. Zach jumped at the sound of her voice before realizing Madison was there as well. "Well. Finally decided to join me huh? And yes. I did. There seems to be a weird type of goo around the whole ship" Zach reached forward to touch it and as he did the goo sent an electrical current through his body. He crumbled beneath his legs unconscious. "Zach!" Madison shrieked in horror. She ran over to his body and picked him up. "Zach... please wake up..." Madison spoke softly now, afraid. Still, Zach remained lifeless and limp his arms and legs jelly hanging from his body. Madison set him back down and grabbed her small phone from her bag and began to dial 911. She stopped. "I can't do that" she said. "How am I supposed to tell him he was near the crash site messing around?" "Damnit" she muttered under her breath. She looked around for any other signs of people or life for that matter. Suddenly, over a hill in the distance a small speck appeared. "Help!" Madison yelled to the thing. As the small speck began to run toward her the speck became a dot and the dot became a silhouette and the silhouette became a figure and the figure became a person until she reached them. "What is the problem? And what are you doing here. This is a restricted area." The figure said to Madison. "He was messing around. I couldn't stop him. He touched the goo on the ship and it electrocuted him. I can't hear him breathing. Please. There has to be something you can do!" Madison pleaded. She couldn't lose him. "I might have something. Let me check" She said. "Thank you. Thank you so, so much." The figure rummaged through her bag and wrapped her fingers around a small bag and a needle. She then grabbed the needle and injected it into the bag, pulling out the strange liquid and injecting it into Zach's arm. Nothing happened. "How long is it supposed to take...?" Madison asked, beginning to lose her voice. "Around an hour. If it doesn't work. He's dead." The figure spoke softly. "Who.. who are you?" Madison asked quizzingly. "My name, is Daniella. But my friends call me Dani."

Sam reached the top of the hill, overlooking the crash site. Below he could see people already there. Slowly he made his way down the hill careful to stay hidden. As the people came into view he recognized two of the faces. Still he didn't call out but stayed hidden watching. As he watched he noticed one of them wasn't moving. He didn't know why. But it confused him. He slowly moved forward a little more before accidentally stepping on a twig. "Who's there!?" One of them called out. Sam slowly stepped into view and moved closer. "Oh! You're that guy we met at the monument. Right?" Madison said. "Yes." Sam responded

Zach could hear the voices. But he couldn't move anything. He couldn't let them know he was alive. His eyes remained shut unable to be opened and his arms were paralyzed. He couldn't cry the tears. He was in pain. Terrible pain. 'Maybe I'll just take a small nap' He thought to himself. He slipped away. Slowly, the voices stopped being voices. They became garbled. And soon, they stopped all together. 'Here it comes... I'm going to die. I know it...' Zach lost his feeling in his legs first. It slowly crept up to his waist, then arms. And he slipped under the spell of the mysterious goo.
