Chapter 1 - Chapter 1

The sun was high by the time Jack woke up. Forgetting where he was he looked around just to realize that he was on the roof of his apartment. Not so sure how he got there he went to check if the door was unlocked. When he heard a gunshot coming from inside the apartment he panicked and just looked at the door wondering whether he should open it or just wait for a while to make sure there were no more shots. But before he could even decide the door opened.

Shocked he moved forward to see who it was when two figures came out of the stairway. The strange thing he noticed was that they both were wearing hazmat suits. Confused and scared he backed away from the door but it was too late to try anything he had seen. Before he could explain they pointed their weapons at him and asked what he was doing there and what was his identification number. He said his number was 571806 and that he had just woken up there and did not know how he got there.

After confirming the identification number he asked what was the last thing that he remembered. Jake answered by saying that he just remembered having a couple of beers in his apartment and the next thing he knew he was waking up on the roof. After Jake answered he asked why they were wearing hazmat suits and why were they looking through the apartment complex.

The two looked at each other and then at him and they told him that chemical weapons had been released in different parts of the world. The hazmat suits were to protect them from it yet here they found a man looking fine and perfectly healthy not affected by the chemicals released in the air.

If anything they looked like idiots wearing the suits. Yet they were hesitant to take them off one of the two said to wait let me test it just in case it turns out to be that this young man is immune and we aren't. While that happened Jack just looked at them wondering if this was a prank set up by his friends.

He was actually impressed that they were keeping in role even in those suits yet when one of the two soldiers took off the mask he could see that he was a man but his skin was growing bumps all over like if he was stung by hundreds of wasps but the bumps were just getting bigger and then they would just start to bleed pus all over the bumps it looked so horrible that Jack and the other soldier were both terrified by the situation that was happening in front of them jack was not expecting that to happen he had expected them to try something but he definitely did not expect this. The other soldier just shockingly pulled out his gun but was not mentally prepared to shoot his comrade. The thing that prepared him to shoot his comrade was the screams. They filled him with sorrow and displeasure he had no other option.

As all this unfolded Jack did not know how to respond he was breathing the same air that killed the man in a suit so what was different from him what let him to stay normal. Jack saw what the soldier did and he was afraid of what he would do next. It was his fault that he took off the mask. Would he be blamed for the death of the soldier Jack did not know if to try and pass the soldier and head into the apartment complex or wait until the soldier calmed down. Jack taught about it and decided to try and head into the apartment complex but right as he was about to try and get closer the soldier stood up and said don't try it.

Jack afraid just stood still until the soldier said let's go I am taking you to the bunker maybe they can explain why you don't seem to be affected by the chemicals. Jack was still afraid that the soldier might get mad if he tried something just followed until they were almost reaching the main floor. He saw the door that led into the first floor. Jack wanted to run to it but just like before the soldier said don't try it.

Jack was wondering how he knew he was going to try something but he was not in the situation to ask questions. As they were about to reach the exit doors of the main floor jack heard some really loud screeching noises from somewhere outside the hotel he looked at the soldier who was standing still until he regained his composure and grabbed jack and went to hide from what jack did not know but if it made the trained soldier worry he should also be worried.

Jack wanted to ask what was happening and what was that noise but the soldier covered his mouth and did not let him speak which did not help calm him down so he just looked in the same direction as the soldier wondering what was beyond the exit doors. After a few minutes of silence jack thought the soldier was just a little to paranoid but then he saw shadows but they looked normal the soldier had said that normal people could not survive without hazmat suits but yet he was looking at shadow that looked like it was not wearing any suits it looked like his shadow would look like but it kept twitching in and inflating in weird manners. The thing was heading inside the lobby of the building so jack thought that he could ask for help from the twitching person but when he saw him he preferred to stay with the soldier because the twitcher (what jack calls them) looked as if his skin was bubbling up but just before it could pop it went back to normal (they twitch because when there skin and muscles get inflated they cause muscle spasms).
