Infected

Chapter 2

The closest picture I could find of how I'd imagine Carter to look like.

Carter woke up in a cold sweat, he had the same dream he's had since his dad died.

He was running from something, but he couldn't see it clearly. Whatever it was though was unnatural, and terrifying beyond all belief.

The person running closely behind him was Elijah, the transforms into a kid he's never seen before.

That's normally it. Just irrational fear, and a lot of running, but time things were different.

The he abruptly stopped running, slightly tripping as he saw the scenery change around him to early that day, outside his house. Mr. Garcia way laying on the gurney completely motionless. A knife appeared in the air above him. Carter yelled for someone to help, but the only other person there was the guy, who looked just as dead as Mr. Garcia. When the knife fell his scream pierced the air, even though his mouth didn't move.

"That's why we have to stop them," he turned to see the guy turn into Rebecca Green. "If we don't, then this will happened to everyone. Including her." Rebecca pointed to where Mr. Garcia once lay and found his mom with the knife in her chest instead.

"NO!!!" He yelled. As he opened his eyes he needed a second to calm down. "It was just a dream."

He turned as he heard a quiet knock on the door. It opened to show his mom standing there paler than usual. Her eyes were red, and there was a tissue in her hand. Rebecca's voice rang in his head "including her". He pushed it to the back of his mind, his mom was more important than some criminal.
