Kapitel 2: What's going on?
Cassie, Present time
"Hey Cassie, when are you going to give me your hot brother's number?"
One of Cassie's friends at the lunch table asked, making the other girls giggle and start gossiping.
"Not gonna happen." Cassie said not looking up from her lunch.
"Rude!" The girl whined and the other girls laughed.
Cassie ignored the others and looked across the lunch room where Damon was sitting with his friends and joking around.
As she was looking at Damon she saw him look up and over at her making her feel awkward as she was caught looking at him.
Wanting to diffuse the awkwardness she quickly flipped him off and she saw him smirk before sticking up his middle finger at her as well.
"Hey you guys need to check out this video on the news!" Cassie heard a girl at the table loudly yelling to the others who surrounded her to take a look at a video playing on her phone.
"It's on the news. Apparently some caníbal guy got killed by the police while trying to attack them. It's nuts." She said,
Cassie also took a look at the phone and saw a guy on a stretcher bite into the neck of a paramedic before the police started shooting him making her look away nauseous.
"That's what happens when you get the flu vaccine!" Another woman yelled, making the others laugh.
"It's these liberals I swear they will do anything for attention."
Cassie ignored the comments while going back to eating her lunch though she felt something wasn't quite right.

Damon, present time
"Yo, you've got to give me your sister's number." Damon felt his friend lightly punch him in the arm while chuckling.
"Add that to the list of things that'll never happen." Damon said while looking at his friend Darren.
"Come on man, you know I'd treat her good." Darren said with a wink.
"Another word and you'll be eating through a feeding tube." Damon said sternly, making Darren back off and the others at the table laugh at him.
Before he realized Damon glanced over at Cassie and saw her looking at him as well.
He felt a little awkward when Cassie flipped him off making him chuckle and he stuck up his middle finger at her when a boy at his table yelled out making him look over.
"Come on!" A kid banged the table while laughing.
"What's up?" Darren asked wondering why they were all riled up and Damon was curious too.
"Get this. This guy takes a bite out of a dude's throat and it takes like a hundred bullets to put him down." A kid says while replaying the video and showing them.
Damon watches and sees the man get shot tens of times but continues to stand up making him frown.
'Could it be a physically enhanced person or something?' Damon felt his paranoia kick in when another person spoke up.
"It was just on the news. Apparently it's nothing to worry about and it's just a new drug going around."
Damon continued watching the video and noticed that as soon as the person was shot in the head they died but getting shot in the body didn't seem to do anything to the man.
'A drug that can let a person tank ten cops unloading into them? I don't think so.' Damon's mind was blaring an internal alarm at him but he wasn't completely sure.
He had never seen anything like this in his last life. Even when the disease had spread it was never like this. People who were shot still died and he didn't know of any drug that turned a man into a bullet eater.
Looking around Damon also realized that a lot of people were also missing school.
And not just a couple. No, at least a few dozen.
'Fuck! Something isn't right.' Damon didn't like the amount of shit adding up.
Standing up he quickly started walking over to Cassie's table.

Military base
Location: unknown
"Sir the quarantine isn't working!" A soldier wearing a completely black uniform informed another man who was sitting down and looking at a computer that had satellite images of certain cities.
"Which cities are successfully quarantined?" The man asked while rubbing his hand over his balding head with a sigh.
"None of them." The soldier said with a slight crack in his voice his hands trembling a little.
"Fuck!" The older gentleman slammed his fist into his desk.
"I'm alerting the president. It's time to send in the military." The old man went to pick up his phone when they heard screams down the hall.
"What's going on?" The old man asked while starting to sweat.
"I'll go check it out." The soldier said before opening the door but right when he did he was swarmed.
"Ahhh!" The soldier screamed and the old man watched in horror as he was eaten alive and insides ripped from his stomach making him puke before he tried running.
But he was cornered and people with gray eyes and bloody mouths swarmed him.
"Ahhh"
"Ahh"
The man screamed as he felt teeth sink into his skin and tear the meat from his bones.
He felt fingers tear into his stomach and watched as his insides were torn out before a finger reached into eye socket and tore it out making him blind.
"Please kill me." The old man choked out his last words before dying from shock.

In surgery
Grady Memorial hospital
"I'm calling it. Time of death…" the doctor looked over at the hanging digital clock.
"12:59 pm." The doctor said before looking over at the 15 year old boy who died during a heart transplant.
He felt absolutely sick to his stomach and once again wondered why he ever wanted to become a surgeon.
He always put on a confident happy smile in front of everyone in his life but on the inside he knew he was weak.
He couldn't handle the death, the sadness. Sometimes he came close to ending his own life but he had a wife and two kids.
Hopefully this wouldn't push him over the edge he thought.
But a low sounding growl snapped him from his thoughts.
"He's alive!" A nurse screamed and he looked over to see the boy's arms twitching and his eyes opening.
"That's not possible!" He screamed before running over to the child and putting his ear by his mouth to check for a breath.
Out of the corner of his eye he didn't see the vitals machine giving off any vitals but he did in fact feel a breath.
"Growl." He heard a growl
"What the." He turned to look down at the boy and before he could do anything he felt the boys arms pulling his head down and a burning sensation wracked his throat as felt a warm liquid start pouring down his body.
"Gah!" He couldn't breathe and pushed the kid away falling onto his back.
"Cough!" He felt himself choking and his vision going dark.
Screams that sounded far away filled the room and through his hazy vision he saw the boy take down a nurse and start eating her face off before his vision went black.
