The Virus

Chapter 1

John awoke with a sudden burst of pain, and not knowing where he was. "Wha-?" john staggered out as he saw an odd red glow. John approached the red light slowly and cautiously, what's making that light?

But as soon as john stepped within five feet of the red glow, the floor disappeared out from under him and he fell until he felt his head make sharp contact with a concrete floor. John awoken to a blur of light, and a deep voice saying "CHEILT AR AN RI NA ARRACHTAIGH" over and over again, then, darkness. John awoke stiff, and cold, he got up, and surveyed his surroundings, he was in a worn down street, all the houses were worn down, and there was no color except gray, white, black, and an occasional faded orange tint to the houses every now and then. He wandered to a house that looked familiar, his house he believed, he approached his old house, now faded and worn down with large holes in the roof and walls. "WOW! My house is a dump!" john stated to himself. He opened the door and strolled in humming a soft tune, hmmm hmmm hmmmmm hmmhmmmhmmm hmm hmmm hmm hm hmmmmmmmmmm,

John yawned and thought to himself what happened to everyth-, but was stopped by a sharp pain in the back of his skull. John spinned around quickly to see a young girl in rags and dirty hair holding a steel pipe, WAIT! DID SHE HIT ME WITH THAT?! John thought franticly, but then he felt the back of his head, and it was fine. The girl ran down a hallway towards the stairs, and john followed after her in anger, "HEY YOU!" said a booming voice, "COME OUT OF THE HOUSE NOW MONSTER, OR WE'LL MAKE YOU!" John turned and ran for the nearest window, and outside was a whole fleet of soldiers with high-tech guns and handcuffs. "YOU HAVE TEN SECONDS! NINE! EIGHT! SEVEN!..." John walked down the stairs and out the door, but the soldier just kept counting, "FOUR, THREE, TWO, ONE! FINE, HAVE IT YOUR WAY!" The soldier grabbed something off his belt and threw it in the window, shattering the glass. After a moment, green gas began to fill the house, and the cries of terror and plea began, coming from inside john's house. John backed away from the door and ran towards the soldiers, "Why did you do that? I came outside the house!" john screamed as he ran at a slower pace now towards the main solider, "You aren't the one we wanted, that's why." the main soldier stated, "WAIT A SECOND! Who are you boy, are you infected?" while saying this the soldiers raised their guns, "infected, what do you mean infected?" john asked, "Boy, just tell me your name!" the main soldier replied, "fine, my name's John Smith." with john saying that the soldiers face went pale. "Very well, men, FIRE!" the soldier said blankly, but was shocked about what had happened to john. John looked down at his chest, he was fine. Then at that moment john remembered something, "CHEILT AR AN RÍ NA ARRACHTAIGH" john mumbled, "What did you say You Demon?",

"NOTHING!" John responded hastily,

"WHAT DID YOU SAY, SPIT IT OUT YOU MONSTER, I BET YOU THAT YOU WERE NEVER LOVED BY ANYONE AYE, AM I RIGHT?"

John's eye twitched, this phrase was meant to snap him into telling them, but it just made him more Insane.

"HEY! ANYONE HOME, MONSTER?'"

John burst out with rage, he was a flash of darkness, and within seconds, half the troop was either unconscious, or their necks snapped.

"Wait-wha-wha-what?" the main soldier stuttered as he looked around at his fallen comrades, then he saw john with blood from his finger tips to his elbows.

"S-S-STAY BACK!" the soldier yelled at john, but john kept walking towards him.

"You killed her…" john stated blankly,

As john stepped within three feet of the soldier, he got a flashback, of this same soldier killing his parents and sister, but then john realized who the girl in the house was, his little sister,

"You killed my mom…...dad….and my sister…."

John ran full speed at the soldier and with one punch the soldier was sent flying into the next door house's front window.

He was dead by the time john got to him, "see you lata" john said psychopathicly, john walked into the house, and laying on the stairs was his sister, dead. John walked past his sister's body and into his room, he layed down, and fell asleep.

John awoke with a burst of energy, he shot up and ran down the stairs, and ran out the door. He ran past the soldiers dead bodies, and ran west.

John walked for hours without seeing any life, every plant was dead, and all that was left was yellow and brown fields, and the skeletons of burnt trees.

John ran until it was dawn, then collapsed on the dead grass, and even then dragged himself four more feet forward, "uuuhhhhgggg," john groaned,

"Just…..a little….farther…" john mumbled as he dragged himself a little farther,

"So…...close…...can't…..stop…" john said,

Then at last john fell asleep, he couldn't go any farther, yet had to, he didn't know that he was being followed, by a whole militia of soldiers.
