A new report issued by the a Government of Graeae, Deparment of Health and Medical Protection year 3057753Please respect copyright.PENANAbi4PT85vJI
Recent research has shown that the epidemic Hydrocaps aniema, commonly known as Dots is a virus that can be caught by humans of various ethnicities and health. Observations tell us that this virus causes the subject to develop a pattern of small black dots on any part of the body. We do not know what the causes of this disease are nether are we aware of what the other side effects of the virus could be and therefore nether do we know what the dangers of this virus are.753Please respect copyright.PENANAINq1OkBc4z
The Department has put together a plan of action to protect the majority of the human populace that is uninflected with this virus. 20 Health clinics have over the period of the last 6 months being built to house the infected populace, about 5-10% . There the patients can receive top class care in hopes of not only learning more about the virus but also in due course cure it.
In order to protect the populace the government has come to conclude that all infected humans must be placed into one of our top class health clinic. So as of 20th September 3057 it will be a crime punishable by death to knowingly not report or harbour a infected member of the populace. We stop to remind you that the above stated changes and rules have being put in place to protect you and we encourage all civilians to comply with the action plan put in place for the better good of Graeae

“Kizan Heartfree?"753Please respect copyright.PENANAW9uO1xe8JN
The spectacled man sat down on the opposite side of the table placing a notepad with various scribbles on it in front of him.
Every other week on alternating Thursdays and Tuesdays. At 2:00 I had a consul session. I sat down on a uncomfortable metal chair while Dr Frenz Jurger talked to me for half an hour then we completed a series of tests, strength, speed, agility, and aptitude.
The day before my first consul I had being sitting with Julian. He had come over to me, a very urgent look on his normally gleeful face. He bent down closing that large distance from my face to his. Out of instinct I moved back but he moved with me. "Kiz whatever you do don't do well on the tests tomorrow, and don't tell the man anything that would make it sound like your improving on anything, do you understand"
I nodded " but why"
" people who do well get taken away"
" why would they do that?"
He opened his mouth to say something but then a monster came over
" your too close step away from her now ! " and with that Julian ran off. I never got another chance to ask him again. And after a while I didn’t feel the need to.
"Now Kizan how is everything going" Dr Frenz Jurger asked pulling his glasses to the top of his bald head and leaning back in his chair
"Fine"
Dr Jurger sighed wrinkling his nose and making his square moustache bounce up and down above his thin lips "Every time I see you you tell me the same thing; does anything ever change?"
"No"
Dr Jurger pulled his glasses back down and looked at his notepad. His eyes scanned for a while then he laid it back down in his lap and smiled at me triumphantly. “Your lying to me Kizan it says here that you've made a friend, or at least found company in a girl… called Sadie Unerg isn’t that something to be happy about"
" she's not my friend"
“oh,…. well that's a shame, you know you really need to get use to the idea of being here and make some friends, you can't keep siting by yourself"
" I like to sit by myself"
He sighed again and looked at his notepad. " it says here that you had a outburst with your visitor this week... Do you want to tell me about that"
" no"
" you sure"
" yes"753Please respect copyright.PENANARotOZcLMi5
"Kizan I can't help you if you don't talk to me"
" can we just do the tests please"
With one last sigh the doctors placed his notepad on the steel table in front of him and stood up smoothing his long white doctor’s coat and walked over to the treadmill he tapped in the setting on the keypad then motioned with one hand for me to come over “very well" he said
I did what Julian said I didn't do well at the tests and tried my very best to suck at them while being convincing. If it meant anything Dr Jurger said nothing
"Thank you Kizan, the Cerberus will escort you back to the yard"
The two monsters that had being waiting outside the office door came in and proceeded to push me towards the door. And down the corridors to the yard once I was there they turned around and walked back into the office building, not even glancing around.
I looked back at the yard. It was empty I scanned to concrete square. No it wasn't empty everybody was crowding into the left hand corner. I started walking over. Then I began to run.
What was going on? Where all of the Monsters? Then I saw one in the centre of the crowd leap up ten feet in the air then fall back down with an audible thud.
I reached the crowd.
" What's going on". I screamed not really expecting anyone to respond.
" Kiz...Kiz!". It was coming from inside the crowd I bent down looking between the gaps trying to see what was going on. It was Sadie, she was trying to exit the crowd her normally pale face a bright red from the struggle. I reached my hand in towards her then I pulled yanking her from the crowd. She took a deep breath once she stood beside be placing her hands on her knees and panting like she had just ran a marathon.
“Oh my gosh....I thought...I was going to die in there.... Everyone is so big... Thank...God u came Kiz...or ... I might have never got out."
"Sadie". I said “What’s going on". She didn't respond still bent over and panting. I felt an irritation raise. I grabbed her with two hands pulled her up and shook her "What’s going on Sadie!" She looked at me her big eyes shocked her face still red. I almost felt bad. I let go " sorry Sadie; I was having a consul I have no idea what’s going on I'm worried. Just as I said that another monster went up in the air, some of the crowd shouted others cheered
" it's George". She said rubbing her shoulders, another tinge of guilt ran though me. " he's gone crazy"
"What do u mean". She turned and pointed towards the wall, I looked over and gasped, I couldn't believe I hadn't noticed it. One of the 9 foot metal pillars which held the speakers on top that told us any new information. Was broken in half the bottom half still stood in the ground while the other half lay a good 10 metres away from it on the left hand side. " George did that?"
"Yer, their changing visitation to once a month for health concerns. It really upset George so he broke the speaker pole in half. Then the Cerberus run over trying to take himaway but George didn't want to go he started fighting and throwing the Cerberus up in the air." I stared dumbfounded at the crowd as another monster flew up in the air. George was strong, a big man no doubt, but no amount of gym time could allow someone to do that.
“stay here Sadie" I walked forward and stared pushing through the crowd. It felt like an hour before I reached the front but I did. It was true, there was a purple faced George fighting off at least 20 monsters. I watched along with everybody else cheering when he landed a punch and shouting encouragement, George had done something very dangerous. His show of strength and defence had given has hope.
Minutes later George was still going but behind me the crowd was starting to part I turned around and saw the warden walking up the path forming in the middle of the crowd. I had met him once when I had arrived at the clinic. He was a ridiculously tall man taller than Julian, but well built. He was clearly genetically modified bred for a life time in the army. But GMs lived a shorter life he looked in his late thirties the grey just starting to tinge the roots of his wavy black hair, wrinkles around his green eyes and his drawn but strong face showing the lines of ageing. He didn't have long maybe ten- twenty years at most, which is probably why he was here. But it didn't change the respect his presence demanded. He continued walking past me into the hoard of fighting monsters they stepped back and moving as he approached allowing him to advance. George looked up pausing when he saw him which was enough time for the warden to raise his hand and push a syringe into George neck. Almost immediately George went limp collapsing on the ground. “Take him away." The warden said "we will ship him to the facility tomorrow morning " He turned and faced the now withering crowd as people began to leave, returning to their respective corners distancing themselves from the event already pretending it hadn't happened753Please respect copyright.PENANA5VteXfQybo
So much for hope.
"The events of today will result in the cancelation of visitation this month and hence forth until we are assured it will not happen again." My attention was brought back to the warden “You shall not speak of it with each other or any possible visitors you may receive. Any infraction of the before mentioned rules will result in an indeterminate time of isolation. IS THAT CLEAR!"753Please respect copyright.PENANAmYlIcn3sRc
A wave of mumbled yes's and quiet yes sir's moved through the room. The warden nodded and walked back through the now rather dispersed crowd and into one of the White doors that covered the back wall.753Please respect copyright.PENANA0SWa5rWU0k
It was a different one every time... George!753Please respect copyright.PENANA0xtTu4QOSt
I looked back he was gone the warden had done a good job at distracting us; I hadn't even noticed them carry him off; yet alone where I they had taken him. I needed to talk to Julian. I looked across the yard, scanning, and eyes locked the same time. He had being looking for me too. He immediately turned around and started walking toward the corner of the yard where the bench and the broken light. It seemed to be the only place in the yard the monsters didn't pay too much attention to so we could talk close without being told to step away from each other. I followed him753Please respect copyright.PENANAL2ZAfVfUOr
I sat down next to him. He had his hands in his head and his face was serious. I placed my hand on his back "what is it?"
“he’s not going to comeback Kiz; for all we know he's dead already"
"What do you mean Julian?, you need to explain "
"Do you remember what I said about those tests that the Dr does" I nodded "let's say that George did super well on those tests"
"Julian I don't get why they would take him away for that"
"I told you these dot are a gift from God!" His voice was getting louder and he had raised out of his seat a little. He always got so passionate when he spoke about dots. But since my mind had settled and the haze had cleared I had started to believe him a little less despite the passion in eyes. The dots just felt like a curse and I didn't what to believe any God would realise them on the world. I placed my hand over his; he relaxed a little lowering back down into the bench but he squeezed my hand it hurt but I said nothing "the dots make us different Kiz they make us better, don't tell me you haven't noticed yourself felling stronger or quicker?"
Quicker…
" yes... it was a bit of a blur, I wasn't well. It was at the start when I was still at home I did feel quicker, like a could move faster. But I could swear I imagined it." His eyes lit up and his grip tightened.
"No it wasn't, it was your gift from God Kiz, they want to stop it that's why they lock us up here they’re scared of the strength we've gained" he leaned forward quickly, bending to match my height pushing his face into my neck, kissing it. " I knew you would be special Kiz that you would be gifted too" his other hand moved to my thigh. It was to be expected in a world where intimacy was so heavily restricted people would look for it where ever they could, this wouldn't be the first time. With everything that had happened I wasn't surprised he wanted some comfort, and I admit I wanted it too. But I had too much on my mind. And beside I had started to think that this corner was dark for a reason, we weren't the only people to use it and everyone knows angry prisoners don't make good prisoners at all.
I pulled away and looked at his face confused by my rejection "not right now Julian I'm too worried about George" he nodded hurt but understanding.753Please respect copyright.PENANAJcoUHTa54n
"Your right wrong moment, I need to speak to Heins anyway, meet you at lunch?". I nodded, he smiled, got up and sprinted in the direction of Heins. If Julian had a second in command it would probably be Heins, the too couldn't be more different Julian tall and slim, Heins short and stubby. The only thing similar about them, through the pattern varied, where their dots both of them had sprawling landscapes on their back.
I got up too deciding to have a walk around the yard and think. My conversation with Julian had me confused I wasn't sure what to believe anymore. He was right I had felt quicker...or faster when I first noticed the dots but my mind was so warped then I wasn't sure it was real. I needed to to find out why they'd taken George. 753Please respect copyright.PENANAkDAb6Ndo9g
