I looked at Caroline who's face was blank
{Does she know about this?!}.
Mr. Hans then continues to speak
"But of course we can't just wait for such gadgets to be made,so for now a small device will be used for the mean-time"
One of the people among the group came forward before saying
"My apologies if we startled you,you may refer to us as the 'Executionals'"
My eyes widen in shock to does words and the scientists were surprised as I am
"Um…can I ask a question"a scientist raised there hand and said
"Go on"
"What do you mean by executionals,is it what I'm thinking"
I looked at the person and also thought
{It is the same thing I'm thinking as well,if the people they haired are referred to 'Executionals', doesn't that mean they plan to eliminate the infected?}
I grunt, glaring at the Executional
"Why of cause we intend to-"
"Brian!"
Mr. Hans interrupts the man who's willing to answer the question
"No more…just go ahead with what you came here for"
"Okay sir"The executional who's name is Brian said smiling reluctantly
"I will now proceed to examine you all"
Brian said approaching me who's still glaring at him.I gulped seeing the small device in his hand
"your neck"
"W-what?"
He glared back at me
{I had to be the first person to be examined hah?!}
I turned sideways revealing my neck as he places the device which automatically sticks to my flesh
I flinched seeing as the device light up in green
"What does this mean"
I asked as I was concerned.
The man looked at me with a faint annoyance in his face before turning to Mr. Hans
"She's disease free sir"
"Thank goodness"
Mr. Hans sighed holding his chest,on the other hand Caroline was staring daggers at the Executional
{I'm certain now that she dislikes everyone}
The executional Brian then stood in the middle of the room and lifted the device a little
"Green means negative…but if it was to show red it means positive signifying that the people is indeed infected. But as we may know this method is slow,we can not examine everyone, that's why the gadget is being invented for faster detection"
The man then proceeds to examine the others followed by the people who can with him
…
As the others were examined and turned out that they too are not infected
{of course the probability of a person being infected by the disease here was low}
"I think we are done here"
One of the Executional said as they all left except Brian
"Mr. Hans…about the gas masks"
"Oh,yes yes, I've contacted the man to deliver them,it will be arriving tomorrow morning"
Hans replied smiling
"Okay then,fair well everyone…"
As he was about to leave he turn his head looking at Caroline
"...see you"he whispered before existing the place
Li turned to the angry Caroline who stood up and walked out the door
"Ha…I also have to go"
"Same here, thank you Mr. Hans for inviting us"
The scientists all stood up smiling nervously before leaving mean while Mr. Hans stayed silent
I looked at him before also getting up
"Thank you for allowing me to partake in the project…I will also take my leave"
As Li was about the leave,she stopped and looked back again before saying
"Where am I going to meet with the rest to begin working on the cure"
Li asked nervously as she was not told when and where to meet with the other scientists.
Mr. Hans was silent for a while before opening his mouth
"Here of cause,we have provided you all the facility you will work on"
He said with a strange smile on his face sending chills to Li
I smile slightly while thanking him again before escorting myself out the building
That day Li ponderd on what happened at the office,the executionals,the device and what Mr. Hans said about agreements and contacts
{They are taking it to fast, even though it's a good thing to prevent more harm…how am I sure they're not up to something secretly that wasn't told to us…for now I'm sure that they plan on executing the infected,I wasn't able to bring myself to ask but maybe Caroline may know a thing or two}
"It's decided,I will go meet with her for more information before gathering with the scientists"
.

Li once again had a nightmare but it was a little different from the one she had before, this time she was lucid dreaming
I found myself in the middle of a road,I know that I'm dreaming but it feels so real,I looked at the ground I'm on
"W-what's this…blood"
I startled in horror, the blood was thick and bearly allowing be to walk, people then began to appear around me, their skin like rotting corpse as they approach me
{A feeling of Déjà-Vu}
"Ugh"
I began to run forward, isn't this like those dreams where you can control any actions
Then why do I feel limited to do so.
I stopped seeing a woman in a long dress standing mid way form me,her face was covered in black fog not letting me to see her properly
She opened her mouth slowly and whispers
(…)
"What?!,who are you"I asked confusedly
She then again whispered,{I can't hear what she's saying}
I then attempted to leave as she didn't look to friendly{how do I wake up from this damn nightmare?!}
The woman once again whispered something but this time she was closer to me.
