there is only one rule in life....to stay alive lately thats been kind of hard.... a new disease has entered the world, and it all started with an oil spill in the united states which ended up mixing with a toxic waste from a factory. Eventually animals drank the water and spread the new disease. The first sign you have the disease, is a rash which will spread through the body. the second, You will be constantly cold and run out of oxygen. the third, youre ears will bleed and youre eyes will turn white. The fourth, youre skin will turn a light grey and you will eventually suffocate. The pain I've heard is unbearable. Elizabeth and I, are the only ones who arnt infected, or so we think. If there are any survivors....we need help. James wakes up to a light tap on the window. It was mid day and Elizabeth had just finished scouting the area. "Were clear to make camp."She said. "Alright! Lets get started then." James said merrily as he kissed Elizabeth gently. James and Elizabeth got out thier supplies out of the truck and started pitching the tents. It had been a year since the disease had been discovered, and Elizabeth realized that she hadnt really been very "physical" with her boyfriend. "Hey!"Elizabeth turned around at the sound of James' voice. "You know...we havnt had sex in a while." He smiled at her as he took her hand and kissed it. Elizabeth giggled. "Okay, well, im going to the bathroom and we'll do it old school the way you like okay?" She walked off with toilet paper and went towards a shrub. As she walked she noticed a cayote walking towards her. She examined it carefully, it didnt look like it was diseased. But it did look hungry, Elizabeth looked through her bag for something to give the dog. She found some leftover chicken fingers and held it out for the dog. It licked its lips as it smelled the chicken. The dog took it from her hand accidentaly biting one of her fingers but then looked up at her gratefully. But When Elizabeth looked into the dogs eyes she saw that they were pure white. she screamed and the dog scrambled away. James rushed around to her alarmed. Elizabeth qiuckly shoved her bleeding hand in her pocket. "Sorry, i saw a spider." Elizabeth laughed trying to shake off the feeling of fear. She couldnt tell him, they had been dating for three years, she was going to keep this to herself. "Alright then, come over here then girl." James pulled her on top of him. She struggled against him and broke free. "im not in the mood anymore." She said crossing her arms. "Aw come on!" Said James pulling her towards him.
"NO!" Elizabeth cried. "Im just not in the mood okay?"James looked up at her confused. "Okay babe whatever you want." They settled down for bed. Later that night James woke up to the sound of a gun shot. He turned and woke up Elizabeth. "Come on we gotta leave." He said rushing her to get up. She didnt say anything they just loaded up the truck and drove away.
about 30 miles down the road they were stopped by a group of men dressed in blue jumpsuits. The first man loaded up the shot gun he was holding and pointed it towards James. "get out of the car! Both of you!" Elizabeth and James both got out of the car cooperativly. He looked at Elizabeth suspiciously. "Grady, i dont think they are infected." Said another mad beside him. "Shut up John Ill tell you if someone is infected or not. Now both of you, STRIP!" The man named john looked at Grady. "Grady thats unnessisary!" He yelled. "SHUT UP!" Said Grady raising his voice. James had already stripped down to his boxers when he looked at Elizabeth she hadnt moved. "Come on young lady or ill shoot." Said Grady. lizabeth Reluctantly took off her shirt. Everyone stared at her in horror. As they looked at the greyish skin tone on her belly and the purple veins rising to her skin, James broke down into tears. "Get out." Said Grady pointing the gun towards the coupple. James just looked at her in disgust. "I think you should ride in the back." Said James. Elizabeth climbed into the truck bed and cried until she fell asleep. The next day they stopped for gas. James went around to talk to her."Ill drop you off at the nearest hotel and that will be it. Ill leave you with enough food and water to last you 5 days but i doubt youll make it that long." He said trying to fight back tears. Elizabeth called to him."James....do you...still love me?" She asked. James looked at her with tears in his eyes. "I dont know..." Two days went by and James pulled into a Marriot Hotel. He unloaded the food and water that she would need. "Your not really going to abandon me are you?" Elizabeth cried. "Im sorry, You know i am!" Elizabeth started to loose her control, she lept towards him with arm open waitng for him to catch her. But he just stepped to the side and let her fall. She looked up at him tears streaking down her face. "Please.....help me...." she cried. James just got into the car and reved the engine. He looked at her for the last time. " I promise...when they find a cure...I will come back for you." He said. "BUT I WONT MAKE IT THAT LONG!" Elizabeth screamed. "Stay strong. I love you." James drove off onto the dust road. "DONT LEAVE ME!" Elizabeth cried as she ran after the car.
James killed himself a few hours before she died from the depression.....
Elizabeth eventually died after two weeks...
