Chapter 11 Benny

“ Did someone call my name?.” said a small voice. I looked over and saw Benny in a house with chemicals, in beakers. And a red liquid going thru a pipe and going into a beaker with a blue liquid in side. The red liquid was in a beaker that was tipped over but held up by a rope. And the red liquid was dripping in the blue liquid.

“ I figured you come back so I got to work to work on a cure. The only problem is that I need your blood you're immune to.” Said binny coming over to me with a needle in his hand.  He put it in my arm. Quickly took my blood before I could speak. And pulled it out.

“ Ouch. Dude ouch.” I said showing Benny my arm.

“ Oh Quit your whining I'm saving everyone's skin.” said Benny he poured the liquid in a little basket. And was held up by a blimp. There was a little blade at the bottom of the baskit. That began to spin as benny let go the top. As he was done pouring in the liquid. It flew past me then stopped at the dore it began floating up slowly up into the clouds until we couldn't see it. The clouds began turning blood red and it began pouring red.

“ Is this the antidote.” I asked. 

“ yes. It will take two days until it will stop. By then everyone will start going back to normal. But thay the zombies will start off throwing up all the stuff that thay ate out of there bodys. Then the zombies will go back to normal after that is done.” said benny.

“ And how long is that going to be.” I asked.

“ humm depending on your test results 5 days.” said benny grabbing the clipboard from his desk and flipping thru the pagis talking to me. After he said five he looked straight at me puting the clipboard down back on the desk.

“ Tell me benny how many survived this test.” I asked.

“400.” said benny leaning up against the desk. 

“ Is that good or bad.” I said grabbing the part of my nose where my eyes and eyebrows meat the nose. With my index finger and thumb. Wile closing my eyes.

“ Dont worry Is a really good number. The fact that the population will go down even more is about 1 percent.” 

“ I'm not worried about the damn population. I'm worried if that balloon is going to make things worse.” I said taking my hand off my face then pointing outside. 

“ You asked for my help. And I gave it to you.” said Benny crossing his arms.

“ I DON’T BELIEVE OF WHAT I'M HEARING WITH MY OWN EARS.” I know what you did Benny. Ever since you made that damn discovery you just had to test it on my rat who bit my lag then went into the rest of the world. 

“ Oh come on it wasn't that bad.” said Benny.

“ WASN'T THAT BAD YOU TURNED MY RAT INTO A ZOMBIE RAT.” I yelled.

“ Whate he was the one who started all this. why?.”  said Ethan.

“ Because people thought I couldn't do it. They all called me crazy when I said there was a life after death.” Benny was starting to act like a crazy person.

“ I thought we were friends Soul. I said I could bring billy back and you said yeah ok.” said Benny.

“ I thought you said you would git me a new rat not bring back my old one. I mean who does that.” I said

“ Apparently a friend like him.” said Ethan crossing his arms.

“ look I didn't want a fight. And this cure will cure anyone im sure.  Now git out of my place now.” said Benny pushing us out into the rain.

“ Ugh let's git out of the rain.” I said walking out of the rain. And into the car. I slammed the door. Smoked with bloody red water. The rain was making the windows hard to see thru. Ethan got in the passenger seat and closed the door. He looked at me and said.

“ Well that was fun.” said ethan.

Two days later. We found ourselves camping out at the safe haven. It took a stupid amount of time for the government to begin fighting again. Mostly they were taking the people that were sick and gave them a diagnosis that they had to stay in a chamber until they were done throwing up. 

They called the diagnosis. I was fine but kate wasint. I wish she could see this. Families reunited with their families. Some lost in the fight. Like mine. When everything was sichuated. Benny was locked up behind bars. Without any lab equipment. I later found out he was put in a jail cell that he couldn't see the outside world anymore. Or talk to him. Haven't talked to him in a while. Since then. Ever since that day Ethan was old enough to have his own place and survive on his own. I heard that he got a house down in oregon. He got a wife named Abby and had a son and dotter. cat and susen.And kate I still visit her grave when I miss her. I put flowers on her grave every week. I work as a history teacher. And I read this book to you know I hope you enjoyed the cornerstones to history.
