BLOOD OF THE FIRST MEN 1
Nathan! Nathan! A low and quiet voice called out from the inner room. Laying down on the only wooden bed in the room, weak and pale to the bone, was Nathan's sick mother. A part of her face was burned, making it impossible to recognise her. Obviously, the wooden bed was the only good thing in the room. The ceiling wasn't properly patched up, nor was the window helping out with the cold weather. Not to even mention part of the room that was leaking. Nathan ran in as soon as he heard his mother coughing horribly. It was as if the sickness was only getting worse instead of better. Running in, he stops abruptly on the door, though there wasn't any door there. A thorny piece of cloth was used as a shed in the room. Nathan took a deep breath, cleaned his tears, and then went in smiling to comfort his mother. "Hey mom, how are you doing?" He smiled down at her, grabbed her right palm, and kissed it. He gently placed his mother's palm on his cheek as she caressed him. "You are the best

He didn't study in school, but his English was still good and decent. And that is because his mom helped him study any abandoned test book he picks up on the road or in the dustbin. Taking Nathan to her backyard, she showed him what he was to do. And she told him she was paying him 20 dollars for it. "But Mrs. Smith, the...? "Ma'am". Mrs. Smith interrupted him. "Yes, ma'am, but the yard is way too big for 20 dollars. It should be 50 dollars, ma'am." Nathan tried to reason with her, even though he knew there was no chance of her changing her mind."Are you doing it or not, Nathan? I have better things to do. Than to stand here with you all day.""Fine, I will do it, but can you add a bit of money to it? "Excuse me""Nothing, Mrs. Smith I mean, ma'am." Can I get the field machine so as to be fast?" Nathan asked."First of all, I don't have that; even if I do, why should I give it to you? I am paying you twenty dollars, which is too much for this little field. And yet you are demand

In one of the biggest hospital in Zion. Nathan was seen talking to one of the doctors who was in charge of his mother. He was lucky enough to flag down a cab after many trials. He had carried his mother down the roads of Froberg. None of the taxi drivers agreed to stop and help him but he still never gave up he carried his mother on his back and continued to walk down the street. Still trying his luck with the cab as he kept trying to stop them. Finally one agreed to stop and carry him. Driving him straight to the city hospital collected from him the last money he had from the twenty dollars and took off. "I'm sorry nathan but there is nothing I can do here. I'm just a doctor doing my job. Your mother had a cancer of the heart and you didn't bother bringing her here soon enough. Now we can only offer her an oxygen machine to breathe on." The doctor said. "Then give her the oxygen. She is all I have I can't lose her now please." Nathan pleaded with the doctor. "It's not free

After sniffing the air, it turned quick and fast toward the armies that has been watching it all these while. Sprouting it hands out, it grabbed those its hands could reach and swallowed them as the mouth opened more wider. The more it eat the more it adds up. "Hell no!" One of them shouted. They began to shoot it but instead of the bullet penetrating it only stuck in it's body. They were now all screaming and running back. Their commander required the lieutenant second hand to let him in on what was going on.

Even after searching the sea, mountains even went underground including caves yet they found nothing. It was like the laboratory was not even in existence. While checking if there is a place they haven't search yet, a message came through to them, they were notified on the multiple admission of patients in all the hospital, hitting them like a bomb, they knew immediately that the virus has already taken it's effect on the people. Which means it was released that same day it was stolen, knowing fully well that they have no cure or any lead on getting the cure, they had to calm the citizens down. So they sent their words to the broadcast on what to tell the people, while they decided on what to do with the diseased patients. "We have to get rid of them. Before it spreads any f

By noon the following day, Nathan was raging mad in anger. His mother died before sunset. And the only thing he could think of was why didn't the generals help him, why did the Fredrick's son delay him from finding another solution for his mother. Totally filled with anger and hatred he lost himself in the process. At these points the only thing in his mind was taking it out on the generals, though he had nothing in mind on how to do it, but that didn't stop him from going to the capital. No plans on how to get in, not even on what he was going to do to them or how he was even going to do it. He wasn't thinking straight. His anger and hatred had clouded his mind, nothing was clear to him. He patiently waited through the queue till his turn. The security didn't let him in as there was no ID on him. He was requested to walk out but he refused. He tried picking a fight with them before Kelvin came to his rescue. Kelvin showed his own ID to the security claiming Nathan was his brother
