While we were busy with trying out different experiments for the success of the chemical we wanted to make, the time passed so quickly and we didn't even notice it. We worked for almost six months on that project, but it was quite a hard time. We faced many difficulties during preparation of that chemical. When we were making it, we needed some harmful chemicals, for which we asked from few labs ,research Centers .Everyone was concerned about why we needed them...But due to some contacts of my boss,we somehow managed to arrange them. After six months of research and n number of trials to make the chemical , we were finally successful at our mission. It was a very happy moment for me. (But who knew ... this happy moment of mine was just for a short span of time and it would create a whole new world with unfavourable conditions for mankind to survive. )
I was already so exhausted that day, hence I preferred to walk directly towards my home and rest myself. The next day, when I was approaching my office, I witnessed an accident..... A man walking on the street was badly hit by a car. I doubted his survival.... After listening to the talks of some people who were standing nearby, I came to know that it wasn't a accident....it was a suicide attempt... he was taken to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center. It was a serious case, I guess. when I came to my office, boss called me in his office and said in grinning voice, "Ron!! we finally completed our project and now it's time to inspect it on someone."
"But, that's impossible to get an alive person for this experiment. Why would someone risk his or her life for this experiment?? And then.... before trying it on him/her, we have to inform the person that after injecting the chemical into his/her body, he's either gonna turn into zombie or lose his life . After listening to this whole stuff why would someone be a part of this experiment even if it was gonna bring success. " one of my colleagues raised the concern.
Boss continued, " Yaa, you're right. Do you have any other way by which we can get someone for the experiment? We can't move back after working hard for these many months,ron!! we've to think something...."
" I guess, I know someone who won't deny for this." My brain was thinking about the man I had known just before a few hours.... (I now feel....how selfish I had been that time, - I was going to risk someone's life for my own sake.... I wish I had stopped there) I was in such a state of excitement rather I must say greed of getting popular or something like that..... I didn't even think of what I was going to do...
"And this chemical has yet another feature - it also brings a person's healing factor at its peak. The person will heal completely within just a span of few hours , whatever might be the injury.....and will become less prone to several diseases." I continued. I then explained the incidence I had witnessed while coming to the office... we both immediately left for the hospital. On the way to the hospital, boss uttered,"Wow, I think God too want that we should complete this project as fast as we can, that's why he's helping us too. "
It was difficult to make the doctors ready, to give that injured person to us. But, my boss lied to them saying, " We have made a chemical which can make someone heal instantly in just few hours,whatever the extent of the damage is" Before the doctor could give yet another reason for not agreeing to us , James laying on the bed , stopped the doctor and agreed himself....the doctor had to agree too .... hence , they handed James in our custody. His name was James and was a healthy good looking guy , almost of the age:- 25-26 years. James told us - He too didn't have anyone in his family just like me. He lost his father in an accident and, his mother was not able to withstand after that accident and passed away due to an heart attack.That's why he tried to commit suicide as there was no purpose for him to live anymore.
After bringing James to our center, we began to do what we had brought him for.... He was placed in a room full of machines, and in one of those machines, there was that injection kept , to inject the chemical into the body of James. It was important for us to complete the process as soon as we could, because there was no guarantee how many more hours or may be minutes , James could survive..... So, we did all things immediatly.... The chemical was injected in James' body. But, no movement and change in his body was seen. That's why we all thought he's dead ....(but, we're wrong. ) With several depressing thoughts , I moved towards my home... But, Thomas was still there. He thought that James was not dead, the chemical just needed some more time to spread in James' body. And Thomas was right, after sometime James started to shout loudly. He was just shouting, "Help,help,help."
He was turning into a wierd creature, same as a zombie. Thomas slowly went inside the room to check the reason behind the cry. James' body was modifying. He was transforming- becoming stronger, dangerous, and evolving almost 5 hands, which he was able to control. Thomas kept his hand on James' shoulder, and tried to decrease his pain . But, James was still shouting loudly out of pain. Suddenly, James bit Thomas' neck. Blood started coming out from the wound. James ran out of the room and destroying all the equipments , hurting my colleagues , he managed to move out of the centre..... Thomas too, started turning into zombie slowly...before he had transformed completely into a zombie, he called me and said in a painful voice, "Ron, you were right. This project was damn risky and we were not capable and ready to perform this experiment."
I asked, " Thomas, what happened?? Why are you saying like this?? Are you fine??" Thomas replied immediately, " As you said, we can't control the zombie. If it will get exposed to the whole world, the whole mankind will get destroyed. Now, only you can save us.... " I asked, " Thomas what are you trynna say?? I am unable to understand.Th-th-thomas-thomas-thomas, you there- ....you there???" The line got disconnected before I could know the reason behind thomas' regret....
I just understood that , this experiment was going to be known as the only failed success ever on the pages of human history....
