Chapter 1: Enter the City of Matthew
In the city of Flint, Michigan, there are a group of male students practicing outside on a football field. They played for the Mason High School football team. The coach then blew the whistle.
"Okay boys that's enough practice for today". Said Coach Williams. "Now remember the game is in two weeks, so I want all of you to be prepared by then, understood?"
"Sir yes sir". They all said.
"Good, now everybody hit the showers." he dismissed
They were all inside the boys locker room changing into their regular clothes. Matthew James, the star quarterback, came outside the locker room along with his best friend and teammate Travis Chen.
"Man, I'm psyched about the upcoming playoffs" Exclaimed Travis.
"I feel ya bruh" Said Matthew.
Both boys walked up to their respective lockers when they were greeted by Sophia Nunez.
"Hola Matt, hola Travis" Sophia greeted them.
"Hey Sophie, how ya doin girl." Matthew greeted
"I'm good, so I hear the playoffs is in two weeks, huh?" she asked
"yeah Coach Williams made us practice like crazy". Said Travis
A few hours later, the three teens exited the school and went across the street. Matthew said goodbye to Sophia and Travis and headed home. On his way, he came across a homeless man, who seemed pretty sick, he sneezed just as Matthew was passing by. Matthew hoped he didn't catch whatever the guy had.
When he arrived he was greeted by his mother Tiffany.
"Hi honey how was practice?" asked Tiffany while greeting her son.
"Hey mom it was great," said Matthew "the playoffs are in two weeks and coach Williams said to be prepared".
"That's wonderful baby, I just finished making dinner now go wash up and call your sister".
"Okay Mom"
Matthew headed upstairs and knocked on his sister's door.
"Yeah?"
"Yo April ! mom just finished making dinner, so ya better head downstairs". Matt told his sister April.
"Alright, I'll be right there".
A few minutes later everyone was at the dinner table.
"So the playoffs is two weeks?" Asked April
"Yep" Answered Matt
"Well we'll be rooting for you baby". Said their mother.
"Thanks mom"
"Don't mention it, now let's dig in."
They all began eating, for dinner they were having lasagna with a couple of breadsticks and salad. Matthew took a big bite out of the lasagna. And here is where the real journey takes place.
Inside Matthew's mouth, the lasagna is being chewed to bits and on a microscopic level. A helicopter, that said MPD, comes flying over the broken down pieces of food.
The mouth 4:20 p.m.
"Saliva # 1 whaddya got? Over" said the voice on the radio.
" We got lasagna coming over." Said the pilot.
"Enzyme breakdown in 10 minutes, be careful out there." said the voice on the radio.
"Ahh lasagna, one of Matthew's many favorite foods." said the pilot.
The pilot was a white blood cell and a police officer wearing a S.W.A.T uniform. "See anything kid?"
Behind him sat another white blood cell, he was young, he had on a brown jacket, a black T-shirt, dark blue jeans, and black shoes. His name was Luke Marrow and he is also an officer of the City of Matthew Police Department (a.k.a the MPD).
"Negative" answered Luke " just a little bit of plaque buildup is all".
"eh nothin a toothbrush won't fix" said the S.W.A.T pilot officer. " so I hear you'll be back out on patrol pretty soon".
" That's right ! " exclaimed Luke " just one more month left until I'm officially no longer on probation, and if I'm lucky, it might end sooner than that."
"Good for you. By the way Matthew's getting pumped up for the big game next Friday". Said the SWAT cell.
"Yeah", replied Luke." his adrenaline levels are through the roof and the Mayor's making sure nothing delays him".
Just then a beeping sound went off as it showed a radar was detecting something.
" Looks like we found our wanted germs. Said the officer.
Below them, a gang of green skinned germs had already entered the mouth and making their way towards the gumline. This was from when that homeless man sneezed on left side of Matthew's face, which caused the germs to enter his mouth.
Once they were inside, The M.P.D chopper was floating above them with the light flashing down.
"Attention, you have entered the City of Matthew !" Announced the S.W.A.T officer cell. "Surrender now and prepare for digestion".
The germs started making a run for it, and the officer took out his radio. " Saliva # 1 requesting ground support".
Beneath the lower regions right next to Matthew's bicuspid teeth, there's a stationed patrol car with two white blood cell police officers. One of them answers the radio.
"Bicuspid # 4 we're in the vicinity, we're on it" said the officer.
The sirens came on and they were pursuit until they stopped in front of the germs.
"Halt, Saliva Patrol." The patrolman stated.
But the germs took out both officers and stole the patrol car.
"Son of a botulism !" said the pilot officer. Shocked at what he had just seen. "They swiped the patrol car ! "
Outside Matthew:
Matthew had just finished dinner, pours himself a glass of fruit punch and begins to drink it.
Back Inside Matthew:
A giant flood of red liquid came pouring down in Matthew's mouth, like a tidal wave.
"HOLY MOTHER OF MATTHEW !" screamed the pilot "DINNER'S OVER AND HE'S DRINKING FRUIT PUNCH !"
Just as the flood hit, it managed to wash away all the remaining food and the gang of germs along with it, while the S.W.A.T copter narrowly escapes the red sea of fruity liquid. They made their way passed the uvula, completely unaware of a dark figure hanging from it, they entered the windpipe and spotted one of the remaining grems hanging on for dear life.
"Attention germ, you are under arrest !" said Luke through the megaphone.
After they arrested said germ they continued down the windpipe until they reached a sign that said 'Welcome to the City of Matthew'. Behind it was a vast utopia filled with buildings and skyscrapers, while the S.W.A.T copter was flying over them.
Down below, we see a vast civilization of 37.2 trillion cells throughout the entire body. From crossing the streets to driving on roadways that represent the veins or circulatory system.
Each cell of different color represents the many different functions inside Matthew's body:
Blue- represents white blood cells who are the police force of Matthew's immune system that fight off any germs or bacteria that enters the body.
Red- represents red blood cells who supply oxygen through the bloodstream and handle all types of delivery service.
Brown- represents nerve cells who operate the entire nervous system and handle all the electrical service(phone, television, Internet, etc.).
"Hey johnny we got an order of fresh oxygen down to the muscles ASAP" said a red blood cell.
"On it boss !" said another red blood cell. His name was Jonathan Hemoglobin, he was young, in is early to mid-twenties and was wearing a standard delivery service uniform.
Jonathan was loading boxes of fresh oxygen into a truck and began driving off.
Back at the gumline 5:30 pm
Back up at the mouth, somewhere near the gumline, two remaining cells are on a saliva boat, cleaning up bits of leftover lasagna.
"Man, I can't wait for the weekend after this". Said the worker cell. "Got any plans kid?"
"Oh yeah, me and my girlfriend are going down to the kidneys to see the stones". Said the other one.
"Good for you, they can pass any day now".
As they were cleaning up, they were unaware of another presence that was making its way towards their boat.
"I'm telling ya man, the seasons playoffs is really important to Matthew, which is why the Mayor is making sure he stays focus" said the elder worker cell.
Suddenly he heard a noise aboard the boat.
"Did hear you that?" He asked.
"Hear what?" Asked the young worker, completely unaware.
The elder worker decided to go see what it was, while the younger one was still cleaning up.
Seconds later, he was already on the other side of the boat and his young coworker heard him scream.
"Bernie?" he called "is everything ok over there? Bernie?".
He also went to the other side of the boat to see if his coworker was alright, only to find his workers hat instead and found a sticky substance on it.
"What the heck?"
He then noticed a trail of the same substance, which lead to a hard dome like shell.
"What is this thing?"
Then suddenly the ground boat started to shake and the dome started glow red emitting heat, beginning to crack and burst open.
All the gooey slime went flying everywhere, including all over the young worker cell. And to his shock, something emerged from the dome.
Before him stood a virus, the likes of which he had never seen before. This one was female, she stood about 5 ft tall, had scarlet red skin, yellow blazing eyes with dark pupils in the center of them, purple long braided hair that went past her shoulders, had on a black trench coat, a grey T-shirt that exposed her midriff, dark purple pants, black high-heeled boots, and her hands consisted of long extended claws.
She gazed down at the worker cell in front of her and began to slowly walk towards him, as he was backed against a wall shaking in fear, while her shadow loomed over him.
"Holy spit !" He stated while fearing for his life.
The virus smirked and held out a claw-like index finger, that glowed bright red and emitted heat from it.
"Careful darling, I'm contagious" said the female virus.
Then she poked the cell in the shoulder with her glowing red claw.
At first he thought it was nothing, but then the burning sensation started to spread and his entire body began oozing and boiling.
"AAAAGHH" he let out an agonizing scream, until he was engulfed in flames.
The female virus then dragged her glowing finger across the wall of the boat and the infection began spreading into crack. Unbeknownst to the virus a small germ was hiding in the covers and witnessed everything that happened.
He nearly escapes the infected cracks, until the entire boat bursts into molecular flames. The virus stood behind the steering deck, took out a pair of sunglasses and put them on.
Then she said "time to turn up the heat".
She began to make her way towards the throat while the boat was still ablaze, then she saw a sign above that said 'welcome to Matthew'.
"Matthew huh? Well they better watch out, because Anne Thrax is about to give them a light show they won't forget"
TO BE CONTINUED…
A/N: This fanfic is an alternate version of the original movie Osmosis Jones. It starts off similar, but instead of using a unhealthy 45 year-old man, I decided to use a 15 year-old teenager as the center of attention, only this one is healthy, likes to exercise, maintains good hygienes, and plays sports. I decided to use different main characters, instead of the ones from the movie and make the main villain of this story female. I have already completed chapter 2, I'm still working on chapter 3. I hope you enjoyed reading this fanfic. Thank you !
