The elevator descended into darkness. The doctor stood like a statue apparantly enjoying the suspence he was creating and after several long moments it became apparant why.

As the doors of the elevator opened Sophie was able to estimate  they had probably arrived in some sub level of the building. And the doctor ushered her straight out into a lab.

Her knees turned to jelly as the first thing she saw was a zombie strapped to a vertically raised table. It had apparantly been autopsied but sitting in its chest cavity was a large spherical ball. The zombie was very definately dead. This thing inside it wasn't. It was strapped in place with leather and nailed into the bones of the zombie's ribcage with rivets. It was moving.

She felt panic rising.

She calms herself enough to hear what the doctor has to say

Uh oh. No one's written this branch yet. :o

Crymzon "Actually I tend to think of the ending first and almost work backwards when I'm writing a plot.

Well here it is. Hope it's alright an all that.

Crymzon "This is open to so many possibilities. I'm really looking forward to reading more. I'll more than likely branch myself when I figure out which way to send the plot. I'm hopeing it'll be alright whichever way.

Definately well written.
