I woke up to find myself in a room. I got up and noticed I was naked. I looked around But no one was there. Then suddenly the door opened and I jumped back. It was a beautiful woman wearing a skin tight black leather suit, she had short black hair and pale skin.
But one thing was wrong, her eyes were white and without pupils. I grabbed a wooden plank off a nearby desk. She shook her head.
"Don't worry. I'm not a deadie." I cocked my head in confusion. Did that deadie just... talk?
"I'm an Immune. A survivor. The virus infected me but worked. Well minus a few look adjustments." She gestured to her face. "But I'm still human."
She looked down at my crotch. I dropped the plank and covered it, embarrassed. She laughed.
"Looks like you're pretty human too."
She walked towards me and I backed away until I was on the wall. She took a bandage and wrapped a gash I had not noticed on my arm. I was tense. Waiting for that burning sensation.
"No," she said, "It doesn't burn. See?"
She placed a hand on my chest and I gasped. But felt nothing but skin. Nice... Soft... What am I thinking?
"Who are you?"
She stepped back.
"Ella. Ella Wayne. And you?"
I gained my composure and stood up straight, revealing my crotch, which for some reason seemed to keep getting her attention. I couldn't tell, those eyes were too white.
"Specialist Michael Hamburg of the United States Marines." Ella smiled. "Nice to meet ya Michael. Follow me and- Oh. Your clothes are over there." I looked and saw my clothes on a shelf. Wish I had known THAT sooner.
