My name is Collin Zahn and I live in Chicago, USA. I had just started my first day of work at an unnamed government facility and not gonna lie it was pretty calm for a virus testing facility. I didn't get to work with any of the viruses but I did get to design the algorithms for them. You see I work as a scientist designing algorithms but I never knew what they did, that's what the next level scientist did, but I have a lot of fun doing what I do I just wish I got to know what they did. I made a couple friends (Séan, John, Jenny, Jeremy, and Matt) who, just like me, wanted to know what they did so we came up with a plan. About a week later we would sneak in. John found ways in and out of the facility after hours, Jenny was the one who would help us gain access to the labs so we could see what they were up too, Matt would keep watch for the janitors who would be there cleaning, Séan would hack into the camera feed and loop the footage and Jeremy would use his key card to get us in. The night we snuck in was awesome. We all did what we had planned but something didn't feel right. I felt as if something bad was gonna happen. I put that feeling aside and opened the door and what we saw was terrible and we realized why they kept the door closed at all times and why they chose a handful of people that would have access.
