BANG BANG BANG
The shots rang out leaving a buzzing the ears of those who heard them.
A body dropped to the floor leaving the few bystanders shocked and terrified.
"Target down. I repeat, target down." The murder said into the crackling radio. He listened for a moment before a response came through.
"Copy that. Name your position." The man on the radio demanded.
"Sniper 07, sir. Sniper 07." He responded calmly, heading towards the roof. A helicopter was already waiting on him. Another solder beckoned him in before quickly buckling up.
"Good work out there today, Gabe." He half smiled before sighing deeply. "Exactly how many Vehicles* did you find today?" (* a vehicle are what they call carriers. What are carriers? You'll find out soon.)
Gabe leaned into his seat, "27 total. 8 children, 5 women, and 14 men-" he whispered sadly.

It had only been four days since the first case yet Xylikio Fever was spreading all over the world. As a matter of fact, it already had spread all over the world. Every corner was infected. 1.7 million deaths. Not even all of the people who died, died from Xylikio itself.
The infected turned into zombie like creatures.
It takes a few days of having it until it turnsyour brain to mush. Unlike a classic zombie, you don't creep around slowly with blood around your mouth, feasting on organs.
No. No. No.
Much, much worse.
Vehicles of the Fever act normal for the mos part. The might stop sleeping but one tell-tale way of noticing, is theybegin to act a lot more sexual.
This isn't because it's baby-making-season. They are tying to spread the disease in the easiest way possible... sexual interactions.
If a person trys to reject one their advances, chances are, you're dead.
The carrier will rip you apart with their bare hands... and mouth like a zombie. Limb from limb, ripping out your insides, they will be killed in cold blood. Afterwards the carrier often eats the victim.
The only way to dectect Xylikio Fever is by using a thermal x-ray or lense.
The head will be red with heat while the body will be blue with cold.

Both men fell asleep in the warm copter.
Gabe startled awake to a tap on his shoulder. The pilot.
"We're at base, 07. Please grab your things and exit the helicopter. The Sargent has already requested fresh food be sent to your sleeping quarters. Have a good night." With a slight bow, he headed back up to the front.
I threw my med bag over my shoulder and picked up my sniper.
Making sure my blade was still in it's holster, I left and jogged up to my building. Jakob was no where in sight.
He must have left why I was still asleep. Speaking of which, how long was I out? It was light before and now it's pitch black. Oh well.
I scan my finger print and until I hear the buzz of my door unlocking and slide in to my room as a waze of warmness and the sent of spaghetti and meatballs.
Took long enough. It was freezing out there.
I grab the bowl of spaghetti, a piece of garlic bread, a bottle of root beer, and a fork. There's a note telling me there is more in the fridge, as well as dessert, in case I'm still hungry.
I turn on the t.v. trying to ignor all the news broadcast and eventually just go to Netflix.
I decide to watch one of my many animes and start to dig in.
As soon as the fork entered my mouth, I realized just how hungry I actually was. Work was hard.
A few cans of soda, like three bowls of spaghetti, and dessert later, I was falling asleep sitting up. I turned off the t.v. and lights then got into bed. I was so tired, I dont even remember my head hitting the pillow.
Yah thats right. If you read the description you know, if not here you go:
Gabe is only 16.
He's so young... okay im younger than he is but still. He's 16 and in the army.
Okay I hope you enjoy. Feel free to give me feed back. Like honest, not kissing my ass feedback. Be harsh. I know I can improve my writing so just tell me how it is.
Next chapter soon.
