Chapter 6: What else could go wrong
"You still awake?" Jack asked Kyrstin
"Unfortunately, yes." Kyrstin replied tiredly as she looked up at Jack.
"What about Roxy?" Jack asked
"No I think she's been asleep for awhile." Kyrstin answered.
"Kyrstin what do we do if we die? Like who's going to tell our families?" Jack asked
"I don't know. I haven't thought much about that. " she answered while sitting up.
"Well, Kyrstin, I just want you to know I won't let anything happen to you or Roxy I don't care if it kills me." Jack said with a serious look on his face.
"That is so sweet Jack." Kyrstin said as she started to blush.
"Well whatever happens to us I hope we can find something to prevent it from happening or at least slow it down a little." Jack said
"I know but what's worse is we don't know what's yet to come. I mean we could end up like them; those thugs from earlier. Where the only way to kill us is to seriously hurt us or chop our fucking head off. I mean yeah, it sounds cool but I would rather be thrown in prison for something I didn't do than have this happen." Kyrstin explained.
"You know you don't mean that, but I know where you're coming from you know I am in the same boat that's headed up shit creek." After Jack said that Roxy stood up and started to scream. Jack and Kyrstin jumped and rant o her aid to see what was going on.
"Roxy what's going on? What's happening to you"? Kyrstin was screaming at her. Roxy looked up at her with a deathly look on her face "Look at me! Look what's happening to me! The parasites are moving through my veins! Can't you see them?" Roxy screamed.
"Jack, look at her eyes! They're turning to a bloody red." Kyrstin said. Roxy fell over and started coughing up blood.
"Oh my God! Jack, check her pulse." Kyrstin pat Roxy on the box, unable to do anything as the girl stopped coughing up blood and fell over with eyes open wide and blood dripping from the corner of her mouth. "Is she even conscious?" Kyrstin asked
"I am. I am." He put his index and middle fingers on her neck to check her pulse. He felt the blood flowing through her body.
"Don't worry she's still alive." Jack told Kyrstin.
"Oh thank God." Kyrstin said in a sigh of relief.
"We need to get a move on when day breaks. We're going to get the hell out of here. We'll see if there is any civilization nearby. Maybe we should take another look around here to see if we missed anything. Kyrstin do you know how to work a gun?" Jack asked
"I know how to load one. Not fire… but I'll try; let's go now but this time let's stay together." Kyrstin told Jack
"Alright." Jack answered. The two stood up and started to walk around. They walked inside at tent and found syringes with a purple goo in it.
"Eww. Gross. What do you think it is?" Kyrstin asked
"Well I'm positive it has something to do with the parasites." Jack answered. He saw another box like the one earlier, and broke the lock off it. He opened the box and found some papers in it.
"Fantastic, more papers too deal with."
"No wait; I think these have something important on them." Kyrstin said as she pulled them out. The papers said that there is a way to get the parasite out but it was burned from there and they couldn't read it. "Damn. Nevermind. They are useless..." Jack and Kyrstin went back by Roxy and fell asleep next to the fire and didn't wake up until the next day.
Author's Note: After I played RE4 again I found out that Krauser's first name was Jack, but it is completely a coincidence. I didn't know. Seriously. And for those South Park fans: I am cereal.
