Alone

1

I remember being infected, the bite of whatever that thing was the needle like teeth imbedded in my flesh as the virus pumped into my veins. I remember my skin turning grey and cold. My eyes a burning red, and the augments that joined in a few days later. My muscles shrank down but gained strength. My eyes gained an ability to see in the dark. I grew small horns, my muscles had wires inside on them. But the last change was the worst, the hunger.  I had been infected twenty two hours ago there had been a few others but they didn't look like me they had all organic modifications. Spikes, longer teeth, smaller brain and purely instinctual. I was alone as my kind, intelligent but ruthless. Human but monster, I remember seeing a family that saw me and prayed to live, my body lurched after them when they started running. I hadn't wanted to hurt them but the hunger was just so painful. I was going to bite down on the mothers head when I saw the little girl, she was wearing a red dress, her blue eyes stared into my red ones. I froze, that's when I learned I could think. I dropped the mother and ran away. I had helped those two, from the shadows , to get them out of the city alive. It took almost a week they kept running into other zombies and I had to distract them. Then the military arrived. They stood no chance against the horde of undead that hid until night where they rushed the base and killed all of them. I stayed behind and killed some of the undead to lessen the number of them. It was a few more weeks before a new team was sent in. They called themselves rainbow I had stalked them for almost a full day now. I had been infected for six months now the transformation had finished almost two months ago my eye glowed like LEDs at night, my limbs had grow slight armor, my teeth now razor sharp and metallic. I had started to kill the other zombies whenever I could. They'd been attempting attacks for months now and I'd been killing them.

Current time-

I watched from the rooftop of the hospital where a doctor had been working on a cure as long as the outbreak had been going on, when I figured that out I started protecting her. Now there was a helicopter of three people attempting to extract her from the hospital. One of which I had known in my past life. She had her fathers helmet and gun. She stood silently at the ready if anything were to jump up onto the helicopter. I saw a few more people in the back of the vehicle a red head and a guy wearing a black vest, they landed on the roof next to me I crouched down and kept watching them. They threw hooks on the roof I was on top of then they started climbing up. The red head got up a solid minute before the guy in black, the last ones hook broke and she started to fall. I hadn't even finished thinking it through as I rushed forward and grabbed the rope it cut through my flesh quickly but I prevailed hoisting her over the lip. I saw her eyes through the slit in her helmet. Wide blue eyes full of fear. I dropped the rope and started walking away.

"Ronin?"

I turned around and looked at her. She held her hand out to me. I put one foot closer to the edge, she stepped closer to me twice. I held my hands up and tried to get her to stop. I turned around again and started walking away again she rushed forward and grabbed my shoulder. I spun around and accidentally scratched her helmet now she had three extra lines in her steel face mask I could see the side of her face her pale white skin glinting in the red light that my eyes produced. She didn't let go like I thought she would, instead her arms wrapped around my midsection. I slowly raised my clawed hand and pat her head.

"What happed to you?"

"Heeeeeh Satellite crashed, sent metal in eye. It change me slowly, in a monster. Nothing hurts as much as you think it strange"

She crushed my side hugging me tighter. I groaned in pain ever so slightly.

"But how did you not loose your mind?"

"I not know"

"You're English is very broken"

"It my second language and I have relearn it all"

I saw an small zombie crawl up the side of the building, I threw one of my spikes hitting it dead in the skull. The man in Black flinched he aimed his shotgun at me. I pointed at the now dying creature.

"Thanks, Uh was it Ronin?"

"Yesss"
