Sourcebook
Intro
You’ve had your eye on him since he stepped in the room. At first, you were concerned he got hurt on his way to the hospital—a valid concern, after all he was covered in blood, wasn’t he? And he looked pale, too pale. Maybe it was the stress, the trauma of the trip here, it had to be stressful didn’t it?
But then, the longer you had your eye on him—between the working on the cure, the checking on him—you noticed something was wrong. He looked sick. A tear slipped from his eye that he thought no one noticed—you did. You focused on the cure, told yourself you’d get back to him when you were done and give him a full examination. Then, he was inching forward. You noticed, didn’t comment on it yet. But you’d stopped everything and you were watching him, putting together an image in your mind that was nasty. Devastating.
Dr. Dave was slow. He had a taller build with copper hair and wore glasses and had trembling, unreliable hands. Your eyes kept darting to between Bryan and Dr. Dave, watching with mounting frustration that became relief when he was finally able to insert the syringe into the device.
He filled the syringe with a full dose of the antidote, a neon green liquid that had the potential to save thousands of lives. You looked at Bryan and saw him stand, relief and anxiety warring on his face as he inched closer to the desk, his face was changing. Dr. Birdie made the observation you’d already made moments ago, stumbled back as she shouted out, “Oh my god!”
Dr. Carl, a shorter man with a rounder build called out, “Oh my… Hey, hey, hey, stay back man!”
The scientists erupted into desperate commands to get Bryan out of the room, all of which went ignored as he reached for the syringe with a desperate look in his eyes. And as you watched Dr. Dave’s hand tremble too badly to access the cure sitting right there in the machine, you started to realize… they weren’t trying to save him. They were just trying to save themselves.
