Getting Ready For Testing

The elevator took a minute to reach the scientific part of the compound, where the testing was being held, and Alex exited it alone.

"You know where to go, kid. I need to go report."

Alex nodded at him, waving his hand at the merc as the doors closed.

He looked around at the dull white walls and sighed heavily.

"I hate places like these… So sanitized, it feels dead…"

He walked directly toward the testing rooms and met with the doctors.

"Mr. Leduc! What a pleasure to see you again! It's been a while since your last checkup. Has Mr. Boudreau finally cleared you for your next round of testing?"

Alex looked at the man with a questioning gaze. But it made sense that Jack wouldn't tell anyone what was truly going on.

The risk of the new spreading only rose as more people knew.
