Written By Louise Mills.

Authors Note: This is quite a far fetched story, but its been playing in me mind for someone time. It's what if story, what if Lucy had a twin and she was really the one who died. Of course she was already a doctor ad she worked in Africa. So knew what to do as a medical student. She was also in trouble with the authorities in Africa, so she develops a new virus and infected Lucy. So now the year is August 2001 and Lucy is in a coma. And please note, the medical accuracies are not right, but it's necessary for the story.

Dr Heather Hamilton was sitting in the dark room at the CDC offices in Chicago. For the pass year her team's energy was drained. They were trying to find a cure for a man made virus, and finally it seemed they were starting to make headway in finding the cure.

The door to the lounge slightly opened, "Dr Hamilton are you in here?" "Yes, What can I do for you?" The figure standing at the door came in and handed her a parcel. "A delivery for you Dr Hamilton." "Thank you." She signed for the parcel.

She opened the parcel, and it contained Documents after documents of molecule structures and gene sequencing formulas and a note attached.

Dear Heather,

I know how frustrated you are and you will be more so after reading this letter.

Firstly the person's blood we have been sending you is your cousin, Lucy's. And I know what you're thinking, but she dead. Well she isn't Rachel manufactured the virus and gave it to Lucy and traded places with her. Rachel was in a lot of trouble with the authorities, but we don't know exactly why she was in trouble.

Now that you know your trying to save your cousin, I thought you would like this information contain in this parcel. We only found them a few days ago and at first one of our new doctors thought the documents were just junk. But as she flicked though them she noticed the gene sequencing formulas and realised they were the kind of formulas to make a virus.

She gave me the documents and I have sent them to you. Heather they are the formulas and sequencing Rachel used to create the virus. And we knew you would be grateful with this information.

I thought you should know everyone has been informed about Lucy's situation today. So it could be a good idea to go to country general and fill them in on how the search for the cure is going.

Hear from you soon,

Leah Harris.

Heather had to read the letter five more times until the information in the letter sunk in, "God I knew there was something familiar about the DMA of the person." They had done a DNA profile of the blood when it first arrived, just in case the virus had an affect on the molecular level, and then she thought the DNA looked familiar.

Heather walked out of the room and towards the lab where her team was working. She walked though the doors and dropped the parcel on the table next to Brian. E jumped from the sound it made hitting the table. "Brian I need everyone to stop what they are doing and read though this parcel for any clues." He was confused and he stared at her. "Don't look at me that way, thinking I've lost my mine, well I haven't. This parcels contains the research notes of the person who developed the virus. And I want to have some answers tomorrow morning, I want to know if we can find a cure or not, then inform the patients friends and family."

******

It was now the next morning and her team had results for her. There was a way to fight the virus and they were starting to work on finding the cure.

Heather had told them to rest, but after finding out it was, Lucy, her cousin. They had told her they weren't resting until they found the cure. Heather was touched then they said that, but she insisted they get 30 minutes break every two hours, at which they had agreed to.

Heather was preparing to go to county general she knew they would be glad very soon, because they would have the cure hopefully in the next few weeks or months.

She had phone her Aunt and told her Rachel's Documents and that they now knew in what direction to go to find the cure and were hoping it would be soon. Barbara had screamed with joy, and she was hoping for the same response from the hospital.

Part three coming soon…
