ENGULFED (Part 5: Revenge of the martyr)

Captain Tuckers is seen on a gurney headed to the ER, while a group of doctor were yelling medical terms. Captain’s watch says that it is 11:42pm. In the X-ray room, Nurse Melissa is reviewing Captain Tuckers bone damage.
“In total there are 432 breaks and fractures” Said Melissa
“What the hell happened to him?” asked 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 operating room.
“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.
