While Alex and David were battling the army of rats in the underground passages of Montreal, somewhere across the Atlantic Ocean, a young boy was in a special hospital room for the fourth time in a single month.
Winston Jr. Was having another plethora of tests done on him again, this time about things a little more serious than just dust or pollutants. His doctor was introducing a very light strain of the cold into his system, to see how his regrowing immune system would react.
Of course, during the tests and for a few days after, he would stay right there, under perpetual observation. But if everything went well, Winston's doctor had promised him some serious changes to his lifestyle.
