Chapter 6, Section 4 Continued: Ashcroft Awakens (Part B)

(Susan rushes over to a shanking, scared and confused Ashcroft and begins helping him to his feet as she says)

Susan - shhhh... it's alright... were here to help you...

Ashcroft - Who are you?

Susan - this is Dr. Smith and I am Dr. Susan... whats your name? (asks Susan gentily with a warm and soft voice).

Ashcroft - I... I dont know... Ashcroft I think... I can't really remember... where am I? how did I get here?

(Smith rushes over to body of a near by dead gaurd lying in the hall way just outside the room and graps his gun before rushing back to Susan and Ashcroft as he says)

Smith - Well Ashcroft it's nice to meet you but right now we have to go and you have to come with us it's not safe here any more see for your self.

(Ashcroft walks over to the door and looks out into the hall way just staring down at the dead body of the guard that Smith had just taken the gun from and then turning to the other two he says in voice shaky with shock and horror as if trying to suppress the urge to puke)

Ashcroft: wh... wh... what happened here? HOW DID I GET HERE? WHERE THE FUCK ARE WE?

(Susan rushes over to smith and places and wraps her arms around him trying to calm him down as she says)

Susan - shhhh... calm down... be calm... we found you here on this island a few days ago near death... unconciouse... alone... we brought you back to this facility for medical attention... only not long after we found this awful storm began (susan walks Ashcroft to a near by window to show him the blackend and storm skies above) and everythings gone to hell since then... not long after the storm began lightening torn through our communication center and as such we have lost all communication with the outside world and as if that was not bad enough... a few days ago people getting sick.. some unknown virus they began to die and there was nothing any one could do... and now it appears that us three are the only once left alive in this entire facility...

(Smith begins to walk towards Ashcroft as begins to speak to him saying)

Smith - yeah and that's not the worst of it just an hour ago an excplosion tore open the Armory of this facility the guards were overwhelmed it appears the virus had some how infected all the remaining healthy here on the island and had turned them into blood thirsty monsters and the real scary thing is that just moments after that we heard of reports that the dead in this facility Morgue have begun retrurning to live and began to attack the gaurds in that section... so it seems that if you die by the virus you are also brought back by it and transformed in violent ferral husk of your former self... we've activated Qaurentine Lock-Down Procedure but this area still is not completely safe thats why we need to get the hell out of here and get to a safer section of the facility fast... well tell you more when we are all some place safer okay?

(Ashcroft nods his head understandingly as he says)

Ashcroft - okay lets go...
