Samantha ♀ ------ Akodah ♂ ------ Dr. Maxis ♂
Are they real?
And do they feel?
Is all the pain,
Just inside my head?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Yeeeeeeeeep!"
Maxis shook his head and sighed. He tapped his pen vigorously on the clipboard. The testing wasn't going as he planned. He expected a few failures; 10 at the most. But twenty-five unsuccessful tests in the past 24 hours? Humiliating, beside the fact there was only a limited supply of the substance most imperative to the mission.
"Incinerate this one. We used too much 115... to unpredictable." He growled to his apprentice.
The man walked over to the Grid Chamber and flicked a switch. Maxis watched the subject burn in the Test Chamber, his eyes flickering with the dancing of the flames.
"Noo!" it rasped, its voice sounding like knife on stone.
After the incineration process was complete, 3 scientists entered the chamber, completely decked with Maxis's Anti-Morbus gear. They swept away the ashes and disposed of them in the RMC.
Maxis closed his eyes and sighed.
"Infect test subject 26... and send him in. Use... 3 pints less of the 115 this time, Rechjik." he called to his apprentice.
"Yes sir," he said, then running off to his colleagues, ordering them, and coming back to Maxis's side.

Subject 26 approaching Test Chamber
The voice boomed through the speakers 3 times, then shut off. The titanium doors slid open in the plexiglass chamber, revealing a horribly gruesome sight. Scientists on the outside had to look away, but Maxis in awe, watched the grotesque creature stutter forward.
"Yes, yes," he murmured excitedly.
He wrote down the experimental code down on his notepad. And grinned excitedly. After 25 years of research, it finally payed off. This subject did not explode, become enraged, or send itself to an oblivion.
"What a joyous occasion for team SX," he cried, "job well done, everyone!"
"Daddy... is that..."
Maxis looked to his right, and saw his daughter, Samantha by his side.
"Yes, my dear, it is-" he cut himself short.
Samantha? He took a double take and startled himself.
"Who let my child into the chamber?" he roared.
"I followed you in, Daddy. I've been here the whole time! But someone was too stubborn to even notice their daughter right next to them!" she protested, one hand of her hip.
"Agris and Stan," Maxis growled.
"Sir," Rechjik called to Maxis.
Not hearing him, he continued,
"Please escort my daughter back to her room," he said, narrowing his eyes.
"He doesn't deserve this, Daddy!" she cried.
The two men, Agris and Stan, took her by the arms and dragged her back to Maxis's house.
"You would never zombify mom!" she screamed before the doors closed.
Dr. Maxis looked down, and closed his eyes. The electrifying pain shot through his body. Elena. Just the thought of her name sent chills up his back. The long obsidian luscious hair, sea green piercing eyes, a smile brighter than the moon. All gone.
"Sir," Rechjik yelled, snapping his mentor back into reality.
"Apprentice, do not interrupt me when I a-"
"Subject 26," Rechjik stammered, "he has escaped."
<---- That was Elena (:
