Hi guys, I'm back. I decided to add a new chapter to this story today because I don't want to wait 9 more days. For those of you who don't know about Captain Carrot, Captain Carrot is an obscure comic book published by by DC Comics in the 1980's. It's like Zootopia, if DC had the rights to it. On with the story -Your 15 year old friend.
Joel woke up with a start. He expected Ellie to be back with the medicine. When Ellie didn't return, Joel became concerned. "Ellie. Where are you?" Joel asked. Joel got up and exited the warehouse and went into the winter landscape. Where could Ellie be? Joel thought.
Byrd couldn't believe what he was seeing. 20 minutes ago, he was working on his final scene on Hoggs and Shaw. When Byrd came home, he was greeted by a 14 year old creature called a "human". This "human" is a girl named Ellie. Now, Byrd was shocked when Ellie showed him her infection. "Oh my God." The green duck said. "Yeah. That's what happens to you when you get bit by an infected person. I got this 5 months ago, and nothing's happened to me." Ellie said. "My name is Byrd Rentals. I'm a movie star." Byrd said. "Cool." Ellie said. "What kind of movies do you do?" "Action, Sci-Fi, all kinds of stuff. I'm doing a movie called Hoggs and Shaw. It's a spin of of the Fast and the Furrious." Byrd said. "Fast and the Furious? No way. Those movies are awesome!" Ellie said. "I like the Fast and the Furrious too. I used to watch them when I was a kid." The green duck said. "How old are you, Ellie." "14." Ellie said. Suddenly, Ellie was spontaneously teleported to the Just A'Lotta Animals headquarters. All of the members of Just A'Lotta Animals looked at her in shock. "Where am I?" Ellie asked. "What kind of creature are you." Super Squirrel said. "I'm a human." Ellie said. "What's a human?" Green Lambkin asked. "You're looking right at one." Ellie said. "Are you a dangerous creature." Bat Mouse asked. "Depends. I got a bow and arrow and a couple of guns." Ellie said. "Are you planning on assassinating us?" Super Squirrel asked. "No. I use those weapons on infected people." "infected people?" Green Lambkin asked. "it's hard to explain. In my word, there is a disease called Cordyceps. Cordyceps is a fungal disease that affects your body. There was an outbreak of Cordyceps that was released in 2013. Nobody knows who or what caused the outbreak The Cordyceps disease ended up infecting 60% of the population of the United States. The people who weren't infected had to be put in Quarantine Zones. It's been that way for 20 years." Ellie said. Ellie rolled up her sleeve and showed her infection to the Just A'Lotta Animals. They were shocked. "When you're infected, it takes 2 days to reach your entire nervous system. There is no cure for the infection. You have 2 options: a) you kill yourself, or b) bite somebody else. I got infected about 5 months ago, and nothing has happened to me." Ellie said. "Can I join your team?" Ellie asked. "Hmm. Let me discuss with my team about that." Super Squirrel said. After a few minutes of discussion, Super Squirrel said "Yes. you can join the Just A'Lotta Animals, Ellie." "Yes!" Ellie said.
