Anthony ended the call in shock…
“ Lucy has the Virus! “ Anthony screamed at Glass…”Tell me how that happened?”
Glass looked on like a moron. He knew he was in soup. Senator Anthony loved his wife dearly and could kill anyone who messed up with her…
“ I have some Antivirus left, I hope it still works on her…” Glass said shakingly
“ You better not hope, pray it works on her…!” Anthony said as he ran off…
Glass knew he had to run for his dear life. He had no wife nor kids, and that made relocating always easy…
**********
Lucy felt her lungs was collapsing….She dialed the medical emergency number of her country and in five minutes, the ambulance was at their residence…
**************
“No! Don’t go with them, I know what is wrong with you and I have the solution to it!” Anthony said over the phone as he raced on top speed back home. The journey back home was a 12 hour drive. He had deliberately built the Laboratory under a rock in one of the unpopular states in the country.
“ I caaa…nn….t” Lucy managed to say as the shortage of air was overwhelming.
“ Madam! How do you feel!” Anthony heard one of the paramedics say to his wife…
“ Can we have your phone madam?” Anthony heard another person say
“ Hello, Hello!” Anthony said but the Paramedics didn’t pay attention to the call….
“ She has passed out!” Said one of the paramedics….
**************
Anthony got to the city in 8 hours. He drove on very high speed on his way back. He went straight to the reception. The moment he was told Lucy’s room, He jetted off but on seeing her, he regretted his actions. Lucy was white and dry. The Virus was deadlier than he thought. He hurriedly gave Lucy some of the Syrup.
He paced around in Fear, he didn’t know what to expect, silently he called on the God he had not called on in years….
“ God please, I am sorry, please save Lucy!”
Just like a deflated balloon, everything that was going wrong with her normalized… The swollen throat went down….
“ It worked! “ Anthony said pacing around…
“ What Worked?” He heard a voice from behind. He turned and saw a male doctor. Anthony quickly trashed the syrup bottle hideously…
“ Prayer!” Anthony covered up…
“Oh!, I thought I saw you giving her something to drink. We saw you through the CCTV.”
“ Oh that! That’s just prayer water…”
“ Oh! Alright… Wow! The Swelling Of the throat has gone down!” The male doctor exclaimed… “Amazing,!”
The doctors didn’t permit Anthony to take his wife home. They said they needed to get back the test results.
Anthony knew if the results came out, he would have a lot of explaining to do… Since his wife was fine, he made up his mind to run away…
In three hours, Lucy was fine, but Exactly what Anthony wanted, started manifesting. All the politicians he shook hands with were dropping dead one after the other, while some were rushed to the different hospital.
There was breaking news about a top politician of Anthony’s country falling down in a business meeting in another country….
Anthony disclosed the truth to his wife and explained he had to run off….
“To where?” Lucy asked
“ Bribia Island !” Anthony said…
***************
In three days , more victims were coming out… A lot of people were dying . The doctors treating the patients also got the virus. Scientists came up to determine what the virus was, but as they were checking the dead victims, the scientists also dropped dead.
Anthony didn’t expect the Virus to have effect on third parties. But it felt like everyone the politicians had met including family members had the Virus.
************
Lucy heard the doorbell…. Anthony had told her not to answer strangers. He had told her once their kids were on vacation, she should come along with them to Bribia Island…
Lucy checked the Screen of the CCTV. Some men in dark suits had pulled up in front of her house… They looked like evil minded bureaucrats . She ran to her phone to call Anthony…
“ Madam, we know you are in there… And we know your children are in the boarding school 4 hours from here, so it would do you good to open the door and give us few minutes of your time. We just have questions about your supernatural healing!”
Anthony was far from his phone, he had gone out for some fresh air….Moreover, he had switched off his phone to avoid anyone tracking him. He only turned on his phone to speak with Lucy.
Lucy refused opening, and that didn’t give the men any other option…
They broke the door down…

“ THE SCIENTIST’S GOD”

“Lucy, We are not here to kill you …unless you force us to…” Said the main woman,who was the only one seated. She was of the African descent. There were two Other ladies and four fierce looking men. The Seven of them were from the seven continents of the world. The fierce looking men stood hovering over Lucy, who was seated on the floor. The two ladies stayed on each side of the boss lady. The lady to the right of the boss lady was Chinese, while the Other was Australian.
“Please … What do you want from me? There is nothing special about my healing, My Husband only prayed for me…” Lucy said in a rush…
“ I haven’t asked you any question and you are supplying answers….” The Boss Lady said laughing “ Isn’t that the first sign of guilt?”
“ I am not….” Lucy said before the Woman cut in…
“ Sh…sh….” The woman whispered and though it was a whisper it carried enough authority to silence Lucy…
“ Lucy, you see… I will tell you who we are and why we need your help. Are you ready to Listen…?” She asked and Lucy had no other option as she saw a revolver tucked in the woman’s suit jacket.
“ Good…. As you know the world is a rowdy marketplace at the moment and for that reason the world’s resources can not cater for everyone. That is why we have so much inequality in the world. Due to few resources available, the world can’t help but have this unfair class system, that is; the poor, the middle class and the rich. The Creator of the Universe ought to stop procreation and let those alive wither away before another generation comes up… “ The woman said and Lucy couldn’t help but look amazed.
Lucy could tell these people were definitely demonic and belonged to a secret cult. As the woman spoke on, Lucy looked at each of them to Find a witchcraft or occult sign. Unfortunately she didn’t see any, except a bulgy part of their left hand close to the thumb. It was the same on everyone’s hand…
The bulgy part was where the chip implant of the cult members had been put…
“…. We therefore want to help the creator trim down the population to match up with the earth’s available resources… and we have been looking for the best way possible to do the trimming down without holding any human responsible… !” She said…
“ Ok?” Lucy asked
“ And Good for us, we just found the right trimming tool. Your husband’s Virus Which Only You has survived from! …..With your husband’s Virus, we can reduce the earth’s population unnoticed.. It would just be a pandemic…”
“My husband does not have a virus or antivirus… What he gave me was Spring water that was prayed on…”
The Boss lady took out the Antivirus syrup bottle Anthony discarded at the hospital…
“ Our scientist tested the liquid from this bottle and nothing in it looked like water…” The Boss lady said affirmatively
“ Well, Jesus turned Water to Wine…” Lucy said quickly…”Maybe the anointed water has become a syrup science can not define!”
The whole room was silent. Lucy hoped her lie had been bought but instead the boss lady stood up and said…
“ Grab her!” She said to the men
“ What have I done?”
“ Since you are the only person who has been able to fight the Virus, then your blood has immunity against the virus. Hence, you will be the sacrificial lamb… We need your bone marrow that will be used for the few humans we want on earth.” The boss lady said…
Lucy knew she had no way out of this. These people were here for serious business… They wanted the Virus to spread and Kill as many people as possible, but get the antivirus for the selected few….
“ We are building a new Earth named the Alpha Center… Your family can be included. It would be paradise. Everyone will have everything they need. Everything will be Technologically driven…. It’s a smart new world. It’s a new life and not everyone can go into that new life. So Lucy, can you see why your husband’s Virus and Antivirus is what we need. Only 1000 families can go into the Alpha Center…If you cooperate with us, Your family will be part of those families…” The Boss lady said and after a long pause she said on a final note…
“ So for the Last time, tell us what you know about the Virus and the Antivirus…”
