So has anyone figured out his disease?
Well I hope someone does ^_^ ….Course there is a bunch of diseases out there…
Oh well! Read well :D


A man sat, quietly, silent – almost like a phantom. His body wrapped tightly up in a blanket. He was shaking as if freezing from the warm touch of air that surrounded him. Suddenly, but still silently, he coughed, each lurch from his lungs becoming more violent. Once the fit subsided he slowly pulled back his hand and was greeted with yellow and green muck. Shivering violently he quickly wiped away the muck and breathed in – or what he called breathing in. His lungs only expanded to a curtain small length until he felt horrific pain shoot through his lungs and up his throat.

How long had he hid this cold?

Only so long…People around him started to get anxious, thus his Captain sent him to his apartment to, "take some time off, mate."

Once his mind settled he was once again invited into the shivering world.

Unexpectedly, a loud knock came from his apartment door. Gary looked at his clock, 10:56…

Shrugging off his blanket the sergeant slowly walked towards the door. As his hand settled on the doorknob, a louder more frantic knock rattled the door – piercing Gary's ears in the progress, "I'm coming!" Gary snapped silently.

Opening the door, Gary was met with harsh light.

"Roach!" Two men screamed at once and flung them selves on Gary who, in returned, screamed as the two men sent him to the floor.

"Oi, don't hurt the bugger now," A heavy British accent sighed as he walked past the three men on the floor.

"Man Roach," Meat laughed as he stood up and looked around Gary's apartment, "Nice pad!"

As Royce helped Gary stand, Roach passed another coughing fit. The room fell silent as the young sergeant coughed. As he died down Meat winced, "Still have that cold?"

Gary shook his head, "Don't know why its not leaving though…"

"You sure you went to the doctor and checked it out?"

"Yup," he lied.

"Well…" Royce paused noticing something in Roach's bedroom.

Gary paled as Royce made his way to his room. As Gary made his way past Royce, Ghost made his way in the bedroom. All four men stood silently in the room.

"What is this?" Ghost demanded walking swiftly to Roach's pillow. Picking it up, Ghost made a fuming face towards the sick sergeant.

"I-I can explain!" Roach cried.

"Oh ya? Then explain the blood on your pillow and blankets!" Meat snapped.

"I-I….um…"

"Don't tell me your pissin' blood Roach," Royce shook his head.

Gary, unable to think up an explanation only dropped his head in despair.

"We're taking you to the doctor," Ghost tossed the pillow to the ground, "Get dressed."

The other two men followed Ghost out of the room.

Breathing in Roach slid down the wall, cupping his head in his hands, Roach tried to slow down his rapid breathing.


Gary sat on the small, stiff bed of the doctor's office. Ghost, Meat and Royce leaned on the wall across from the sergeant, glaring daggers at the man.

"You could have sat in the waiting room, you know…" Gary muttered harshly.

"Nah," Meat shrugged.

Glaring at the three men, Roach was about to complain when the door opened and his doctor walked in holding a clipboard.

"Hello Gary," the doctor greeted, and then nodded to Ghost, Meat and Royce. "Well I have some…news for you."

"That all I have is a bad cold and you're going to send me home with a smiley sticker that says, 'I did it!'?"

"Not exactly….your symptoms only really point towards one disease. You have blueness around your throat, coughing up blood and yellowish/greenish muck; you also have a fever with chills, shortness of breath, high heart rate, and headaches and mood swings."

"Doesn't seem that bad," Gary sighed and plopped out of the bed, only to be stopped by Ghost who grabbed his arm.

"That is not the case Gary." The doctor paused, "It seems you caught a very deadly disease…and we also caught it to late."
