The Flu

Chapter 13

"This place is empty! No sign of anything Nana!" Nella gave up looking.

They had been in the warehouse for hours and saw nothing. It seemed they were the first to actually visit since it was shut down. But they had spotted a car an year ago. What was it doing here? Unfortunately the car's number plates were blurred so nothing showed of the car except the model. A white premio.

"But there is something. The laptop points out here. See." they looked again.

Nana walked in circles then lay on the ground listening.

They watched her and then she told everyone not to move. She smiled,

"This place has an underground. The entrance is not on this side. It's somewhere on that direction. I can hear movement. It's just not normal movement. Let's split!"

"No one is splitting out yet! Hands in the air where I can see them! Catherine! What a nice surprise!"  called a drone high on their heads.

They did as ordered. Nana was surprised to hear someone call by her spy name. A name  only few knew. She decided to reach for her gun and shot at the drone. It fell off and exploded.

" Get in everyone! We got to keep moving! The people behind this know everything about my spying days. We got to go..."

They scattered in as she coughed the engine and drove off. She was still shaking as she drove. No one was following them but she had to make sure they were on the main road.

" Nana, what was all that about? " Nella asked.

" We should stop looking into this. It's no good i swear." Nana replied looking so frightened.

Ephy had never seen Nana like that so he knew this was real trouble. He held Nella's hand so tight that she pulled it away and shook him.

" What has gotten into both of you! You look so frightened both of you. Epy is even worse he is pale... What's with your breathing. Epy! Honey! Come on!... He is hot, i can't feel his heartbeat! You got to stop!" Nella was now screaming.

Minutes later she felt choked and darkness knocked in. Nana came to a halt and climbed to the back seat. She pulled out the flu kit and injected each. No one showed a sign of waking up. She had been too busy dealing with the situation at hand that she didn't hear the on coming cars.

"Cathy! You thought you do get away like you did before! You never give up, do you?"

She stopped and cried. She wasn't prepared for this. Stanley had caught up with her and her history.

Back in the early days before she was elevated to a DCI, she had been a government spy on an initiative in a medical research. It was said pregnant women were been abducted and their children stolen after they had given birth for some medical research.

In the process, she had to get pregnant and stay on the abduction prone areas. She did get a child, sperms from a donor of her choice and was ready to die for her country.
It wasn't long before she got kidnapped too. Her pregnancy had been too big seeming almost 9 months but it was only 6 months.

The abducters had to wait on the kid to be born. She had not felt attached to the kid in any way but the moment she experienced the abduction camps, she got attached. She decided she was going to protect her child and the country.

At one time she got involved in serving meals for the other women which proved her strong. Stanley had spotted her then and decided she was an asset. A friendship grew between the two. Stanley's fantasy of making love to a pregnant woman was easily fulfilled now without having to force the women. He used Cathy.

In such moments of intimacy Cathy had almost dropped her whole mission. She had stopped giving feedback to the government and just followed Stanley in the bunks.

The whole system was built underground and from the maps in his room, she could always draft an escape route or an attack one.

Then she gave birth naturally like promised. All the other women had been forced to a C. S and mostly under no medication to keep the pain out. They just watched horribly in pain as a child was pulled out of its mother's womb, cord cut and sewed back carelessly. Some women couldn't survive the orge. Some died, others breed themselves out and died with their kids. Some just hang themselves out on the bunkers and died "easily" as they were calling it.

She was given only a minute to have a look at her baby boy and then he was snatched. She had agreed with them that whatever they were to do to her kid, she wanted to be there and watch. She was allowed but sparingly.

This had caused an argument among the bosses for allowing a victim to get into their babies lab but with Stanley already falling in love with her, they just had to let him be. He was the main boss after all.

The whole hall was filled with baby beds and incubators. Around 30 babies had been in the incubator at that time and over 100 laying around asleep. It just seemed weird not to hear any baby sounds, no cry no turning.

With how they were placed, incase one baby cried, all of them would wake up and follow.
Her son had been too heavy and big. Something Stanley had said was a gift. They had injected him and he had fallen asleep like every other baby.

On one end of the hall were two men in heavy boots and gloves. They seemed to be collecting babies and throwing them in black plastic bags.

"My God! What are they doing!" she had exclaimed.

Stanley had explained that the babies were dead. That most of them didn't pick up the serum well.

"What is the serum for?" she had asked fearing for her baby.

"It's non of your business! Now go back and rest my love." she had to be dragged out screaming and shouting. Her baby lay on the bed named SPECS 1180. Each bed had a number. Meaning over time they had stolen over 1000 babies.

Back in her banker she was sharing with Stanley, she was locked in her room. Unfortunately the guys had not locked it well and she walked out and found the research documents of Stanley. She read them and managed to cut out strips from it. It was a medical research, a Free disease prone man was the target. Suggested under it was also :make man look invisible when moving around.... Foolish fantasy, she had thought.
