Chapter 1 - Call For Safety
We packed our bags, load the car and were ready to leave any time. After we heard what the KV did in the U.S. we knew it would take long to travel the Atlantic and reach us.
This was two months ago, yesterday I grab two blood draw kits from college and the first thing I did when I got home was draw blood from me and my father to check if we are infected. Went back to college to analise the blood, found out that we are both immune.
Just as I found this out the three major channels report an outbreak in the airport, a guy that flew from New York city, some rich snob got himself a private jet and left without checking himself, the guy was shot on sight as soon as he got off the plain, but they didn't shot his dog that ran out of the plain into some vegetation surrounding the airstrip. Of course the dog part was left untold at least for some time.
Because of this police and military were dispatch to government locations, hospitals and medical centers and known labs who could test for infection. Lucky me my college was one of those labs. My father called me:
"Have you seen the news? It got here. Where are you"
"Yes I'm seeing it right now. I'm at college testing the blood, we are immune, don't worry about it"
"Thank God, come home, I don't want you there if anything happens"
"Don't worry. Just let me get my bag from the locker and I'll go strait home"
Just when I was putting my bag over my shoulder the military arrived, and with all the confusion an accident happen, in the testing lab. And some how someone got infected by the KV sample that was sent to the lab to help in the research of a cure. A lock down was instated by the military, people could only leave when they were tested.
I called my father so let him know.
"Dad, someone got infected here, anyone can't leave without being tested. So I just call to tell you I'll be a little late"
"Why didn't you come sooner... Please hurry, I'm worried sick, I told your grandparents you were coming home. So please hurry"
"Don't worry I'll be there as soon as I'm release"
Fifteen minutes later the TV showed some images of infected people in New York, the infected were hairless, without pigmentation and hyperventilating, showing signs of rabies and lose of any kind of humanity, they were like animals.
And when I thought things couldn't get any worse, the infected people from the accident earlier started to exhibit symptoms like the ones from the news. I picked up the phone and hit redial.
"Dad get in the car and drive to grandparents home, don't worry about me I'm fine, just lock the house and leave"
"What are you saying, why do we have to leave"
"Not we, you! People here are starting to show the same symptoms as the New York ones. You know how people are, soon there will be panic, houses will be pilled chaos will break loose, Portugal isn't different. So lock the house and get to Lousã茫"
"What about you, I'm not leaving you behind"
"Don't worry as soon as I can I'll go too, please trust me go to grandparents house"
Suddenly shots were fired, some of the infect broke lose people started to panic and the military started shooting.
"The military started shooting"
"I'm coming to get you"
"NO! Please, go to Lousã茫, I'm asking you, do this for me, no more questions, no more buts, go. You trust me don't you"
"Yes, you know I do"
"Then please, go, I'll meet you there as soon as I can. I love dad"
"I love you too"
Then it came the bads news, KV got airborne.
