The Variant

A/N: Sorry I haven't posted much again. Been super busy and working four, twelve hours shifts in a row plus overtime on one of the days, for a grand total of 54 hours in 4 days. Monday I am off so I plan to pump out 4 to 5 chapters, and starting Friday I am off for a week. So there will be steady at least two a day release.

There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.

Everyone crowded around the walker. They were curious to examine it. The walker was around 7ft tall, and had really thin limbs. Its arm span was longer then its entire body. Rick had Shane find some plastic to wrap it up in. While Xiang Fe was sent to kill any walkers that were turned, or still alive in the building. Carl was next to Rick he was staring at it curious as to why it was so different.

"Dad why is this one so different?" (Carl)

"I don't know. Maybe it is like when a virus mutates and changes to be more resistant or spread easier. The virus that is making the walkers is mutating too. I will have it taken back to the hospital and have them look at it." (Rick)

Shane came back with the plastic wrap.

"Rick you have to come see this." (Shane)

Shane led Rick and Carl to the freezer area of the store. Inside there were dead bodies everywhere. All of them appeared to have been eaten. A few of the corpses were clearly walkers but it looked like someone was still munching on them.

"I wonder if that strange one was eating these, and does it eat walkers too?" (Shane)

"I don't know. Do me a favor take Carl, and go get Xiang Fe. Will you load up the one we found? I am going to look around some more." (Rick)

Shane took Carl and went to find Xiang Fe.

"Hermes what is this thing?" (Rick)

"Sir this a variant. Before you were sent to this world, I had informed you that some of the zombies would mutate. This is one of them." (Hermes)

"A variant, is there more like this one?" (Rick)

"Unknown, normal zombies will not evolve without outside stimulation. Something made this one crave both human and zombie flesh. Eating infected meat caused it to mutate rapidly. But with any forced or rapid growth there is side effects. From what I can tell this one was fast in a straight line. The shots that missed or were just grazes were caused from it moving its upper body. The lower half did not dodge or deviate much, and when it moved in a zigzag pattern it would easily lose traction. The setting in this building allowed it to thrive. The aisles are in a straight line, and the ground was flat and smooth. If this was a forest or had a textured ground, or uneven surface it would not have been an effective hunter." I also believe that the zombie will take on characteristics from the human they were. This one may have been a person who use to run a lot. (Hermes)

Afterwards Rick had the zombie removed and sent another team back to clear out the Walmart. He called ahead to the compound and told Dr. Khattar what he had found. The doctor was excited and he notified a few of the research staff, and had them prep a surgery room.

Rick arrived at the compound had the truck take the dead zombie to the hospital. The hospital had a special research room for the doctors and a few geneticist to research the dead. There was four people waiting in the room. Rick helped load the body from the cart to a table. The doctors then asked Rick to leave the room and they would get back to him with anything they found.

Rick went back to his room to take a shower and change clothes. About halfway through he felt hands wrap around him from behind. He turned around and Maggie was hugging him in the shower.

"I missed you."(Maggie)

"Missed you too." (Rick said while giving her a kiss.)

Maggie kissed him back passionately. Their hands began to wander around each others bodies. Rick slipped his hand between her legs. Maggie leaned into his body and began to moan as she kissed him. Rick began to move his fingers in and out of her pussy. He started with one finger and slowly worked a second finger in. He kept going faster and faster and eventually Maggie began to shake all over. She then came all over his hand. Rick held her up and began kissing her even harder. Once she stopped shaking he picked her up and put her against the glass sliding door. She put her hands on the glass as Rick grabbed her hips and pulled her close from behind. He took his dick in his hand and lined it up with her pussy and pushed forward. Maggie gasped as she was taking him in. He pushed in all the way, and held her there. He then pulled almost all the way out and then slammed himself back in, he kept thrusting over and over as Maggie moaned loudly. Rick was getting close to cumming, and didn't want to finish yet so he pulled out and spun Maggie around and started to kiss her chest. He sucked on her nipples and played with her pussy. She then got down onto her knees and grabbed his dick. She started licking the shaft from balls to to tip, she took him into her mouth and began to bob on it slowly working herself further down. After a few minutes she was taking him deep and gagging on his cock. Rick could no longer resist and came into her throat filling her stomach with his load. She kept sucking on him and playing with his balls, it didn't take long for him to get hard again. Maggie stood up and leaned against the shower wall again. Rick positioned himself behind her again, he grabbed his dick again and lined it up with her pussy. Maggie stopped him and pushed it up higher. Rick knew what she wanted and used her pussy juices and his cum as lube. He slowly pushed into her tight asshole, taking his time and going inch by inch. Once he was all the way inside her she told him to just wait. After enough time she began to throw back against his dick in her ass. He started to meet her thrust and and began to pound harder and harder into her ass. He could feel her body starting to spasm again and she cam again harder then he had ever scene before. He kept pumping and eventually started to cum deep into her ass. Both breathing heavily he pulled out and held her into his arms. Afterwards they washed each other off while talking about everything that had happened.

"Rumor is you found a different kind of zombie." (Maggie)

"We did and Carl was the one to put it down. It moved really fast, and it took out four red shirt guys." (Rick)

"Do you think there will be more like that?" (Maggie)

"I don't know, maybe. We just need to take more precautions. We got arrogant after clearing out so many without losing anyone. (Rick)

While they were talking the phone in the room rang.

He Rick come down to the research lab, you're going to want to see this. (Dr. Khattar)
