Chapter 14

That's when I ended up in one of your containment facilities that I learned all the story behind my wanted status. She had discovered that in my blood, I had the most concentrated version of the protein and this version was mixed with the DNA of a plant. Since she inadvertently, probably because of the shock of her findings, put the petri dish containing a culture of my blood cells in the wrong fridge and was able to hold her tongue about it, no one knew where it came from. But they finally found their Zero Patient. It had to be me.

I also learned that my success with women was only caused by a pheromone that I was the only one to emit and that were driving affected patients sexually crazy. I finally found out what was so different about her. She simply loved me for me, I know it's pretty corny to say so, but that's also what I destroyed when I offered her this damn pill.

Of course, I know that you should have extracted a cure by now since it's been nearly six month that your top scientists are working on it. But it didn't take me long to understand that it was not in your best interests. Since you were making a fortune out of the pill, that the epidemic relaunched the economy because of all the changes it provoked and that this strange protein had solved some of your political problems, why put the world at risk once again. After all, this disease had cured nearly all the most lethal illnesses known to Man and societies worldwide adjusted to it amazingly fast.

My month spent in solitary confinement after my botched escape, damn I sucked on this one. Gave me time to think about your options. Instead of looking for a cure, you were finding a way to infect the male population. And as I've seen when your two 500 pounds guards brought me here, you did succeed.

I realize that with all my knowledge of this, I'm never to see the outside again. Well, life is not so bad down here, the females around are very “friendly” to me and you are kind enough to provide me with nearly all of what I could ask. Since I lost her, freedom doesn't really matter to me now.

Now that against all my recommendations they put you in charge and I noticed how you were looking at me during this past few hours and knowing that you took care of my well feeding and that you closely monitored my weight, which is around 400 pounds now. I also noticed that you went into liposuction recently since you seem to have gained at least 200 more pounds since we last met. I must admit that they suit you more that well, especially what it has done to your abdominal part.

We shall meet again in my room soon enough, Ms Alexander...
