ENGULFED (Chapter 5)

Captain Tuckers is seen on a gurney headed to the ER,
while a group of doctor were yelling medical terms. In the X-ray room, Nurse
Melissa is reviewing Captain Tuckers bone damage.
“In total there are 432 breaks or fractures” Said Melissa
“What the hell happened to him?” Doctor Richardson.
“His wife said that his legs gave out and he hit the
floor.”
“I don’t understand, Even with brittle bones this
couldn’t have happened. The only damage to his skin is some bruising on his
chest.”
“He most likely got it when he fell.”
“This isn’t human. These bones didn’t just break,
they decayed.”
Suddenly a nurse burst into the X-ray room.
“Doctor Richardson, come quickly” The nurse said
frantically.
The doctor and nurses rushed to the OR. The nurses
sat in the observation room and the Doctor prepped for surgery. The nurses sat
down as Doctor Richardson entered the OR.
“Oh my lord.” The doctor said as he looked at the
body.
Captain Tucker’s skin was pale and blotchy with
black spots. His body was deflated because all his bones were now mush. The incision,
the doctor made, showed that his lungs were limp and black, like a smokers. Suddenly
the captain’s left arm hung off the table and melted off like wax. Everyone was
disgusted and one doctor ran out the door with her hands on her mouth and
stomach. The Captain’s body grew darker by the second until it was black and
reflective. Suddenly the body lost its figure completely and the room was quiet
except for a continuous high pitch beep.
