Experiment Gone Wrong (iv): The City

William turned to face him looking all dead and scary.

"Junior.... Junior.... Junior....." She called out looking for her son in the crowd. "Junior....." She screamed seeing William chasing her son.

"Mummy...." He called out in a high tone running back to his mom while the scared looking William kept chasing him.

"Junior...." She screamed also running back to her son.

"Mummy....."

"Junior...." She screamed looking really terrified as William had already bitten her son. "Junior...." She screamed and pushed William away. She fell on her knees and tears started dripping down from her eyes. "Baby...." Scooping him in her hands. The world had screeched to a halt for her in midst of all the chaos going on. People screaming, running and more were getting bitten but it was as though she had gone deaf to all these things.

She shook her son noticing how is body was changing. "J....." Crying and shaking him. "Don't do this to me baby. Mummy's here. S...stay calm okay. I'll be right back. Stay here." She stood up in a haste, about to run to go get something, only for her to get bitten on her neck by Mr Louis.

She fell on her back, gritting her teeth and arching her back, making weird noises as her body began to change.

More and more people got bitten, more were transforming and the rest ones running and seeking shelter.

Outside, the sun was hot. The citizens were enjoying the summer. There was a sea of traffic outside.

"Be quiet children." Said the teacher in a school bus stuck in the traffic.

"Ms Emily, I need to pee." Cried a child.

"Oh dear. What...."

"Run..... " Crowds from behind were coming out from their cars screaming and running for their dear lives.

The children started getting all tensed up looking at the chaos going outside.

"No need to panic children. Stay calm and have your seats." Trying to calm their tensed bodies.

"Ms Emily." A child screamed looking at the back window.

She ran to the direction of the child and the children had started screaming. They saw tons of people getting bitten and their skin and eyes transforming.

"Drive.... drive.... drive...." Ms Emily screamed.

The driver quickly stepped on the accelerator pedal, but it was already too late. A child screemed and got bitten by the zombie that had already entered the bus. More and more of them entered the bus, infecting the children, the teacher and the driver. Their bodies arched and they were making weird sounds as their bodies began changing.

Half of the city had gone chaotic in a day. Some used the tool they had in their hands including a machete to fight them, but the more they cut, the more their cut out bodies regenerate. Bullets were neither killing them. Within twenty-four hours, forty-five percent of people, both adults and children were already infected in the country. From the capital country, it spread to other parts of the cities in the country.

The chaos and more people getting infected went on till the following day. It had been shown in all news channels world wide, and is currently the headline of all the news channels. Governments from different countries sent in men to help assist the country. Unfortunately, even the troops they sent were getting bitten by the zombies. The governments ceased all operations not to send in more men to the country. For the ones sent, none came back.

Many countries have shut down all boarders and closed down any means of transportation including airlines and sea transportation coming from the country. So far, only twenty-five percent of people were able to escape the country. The rest were left behind. Seventy percent of people have turned into zombies in just a matter of two days. The remaining five percent went into hiding, hoping not to get caught by the zombies - but some still got caught and were bitten by the zombies. The city had been destroyed. No normal humans were seen on the road.

TWO MONTHS LATER:

The matter had been a crucial one to the UN, the WHO, and many other countries. No cure or solution had been found yet. For the last two months, no zombies could be caught and brought to them. And that is the major issue in finding the cure. They had no idea of the source or any of the infected ones, to carry out an experiment with.

They tried sending more men few weeks back into the capital city, which is in the heart of the country, where everything began. The plan is to get to the lab where people believed it started from to get more information. Unfortunately, the men they sent also got bitten by the living dead.

It was a really difficult one because the lab is in the capital of the city. The city that had more numbers of zombies than the others. A lot of health workers, armies and scientists all tried their best to reach the lab or if possible, capturing one of them. But all their efforts all resulted to negativity. None sent their had come out back.

It had become known to the citizens in the world about those who are sent in to the country and not returning. Because of that, the country had been popularly known to many citizens around the world as Zombies Territory, a place of no return.
