You open your eyes to see it is the crack of dawn. You went to bed decently early but your eyes feel heavy and you still feel tired.

You go to stand up. You feel Clem clinging to you.

Clem: where are you going?

You: outside.

Clem: don't go...

She says as you sit up and she wraps her arms round your chest. She has her eyes closed and is half asleep.

You: sorry.

You get fully up and she flops back onto the bed. You put your boots on and grab your coat.

You look at Clem who looks sad. You take your lighter out of your coat and give your coat to her which she clings to and smiles.

Too fucking cute.

On your way out you grab your knife and a torch. You step out of your room to find Finley in walking out of his room too.

You walk over too him.

You: sleep well?

Finley: yeah. Much more comfortable than the floor.

You: yeah it really is.

Finley looks down at your wrist and looks a little shocked.

Finley: is that a walker bite?

You look down at it. It seems to be healing over and you don't think it will scar.

You: errrm. Yeah. It got me like 4 days back.

Finley: what? How?

You: I think that the scientists that were experimenting on me actually made a cure but now I think it's contaminated.

Finley: that's weird. Do you know if you'll turn?

You: no but I'm working on it. You can't tell anyone. Not even Clem. They know about the bite and the experiments but I said that the infection had been combatted and that I'm fine.

Finley: listen this is a lot to take in.

You: I know I'll explain it all later.

Finley: fine your secret is safe but if you are going to turn I need you to tell everyone as soon as you know.

You: thanks a lot man.

You fist bump him.

He walks outside and you climb over the barricade and look around the doors.

You go from door to door until you find the one labelled lab. You draw your knife and go in.

No walkers.

You double check to see if there are any under the tables or anything. You find one on the floor and you stab it in the back of the head.

It's decently light but still a little bit dark.

You flick your lighter on and search the cupboards. You find a lot of pencils and a note pad. You take them out. You keep searching.

Bingo.

Microscopes.

You pull one out and place it on the desk. You keep searching and find some small glass dishes.
