Chapter 6 – Fundamental Transformation

We made it back to the boat, but by this time I was fading fast. My energy level was depleting something awful, my head was pounding and I was sweating profusely. As we began to board the boat, my condition became the focus of attention over all of the supplies that we had obtained. I was hoping for a better reception.

Tool took the helm without saying a word as he plotted a course back to our base at Harsens Island.

“What the fuck?” Tommy let out as Jamie helped me sit down, “What happened?”

“He hurt his leg,” Eric replied.

“Thank you captain fucking obvious,” Tommy quipped back, “but I was asking for a more specific answer.”

“I got bit.” I replied bluntly.

There was no bullshitting the situation any longer. I figured if I told the truth back at the pharmacy, I might not have made it back to the boat. At least now I had a chance of getting back to the base and trying to figure out a way around this.

Between the lapping waves hitting me in my good eye, I could make out that it was suddenly gone from sight as I felt myself being pulled into the darkness.

In the darkness I found a quiet place – so quiet it was deafening. Events in my life replayed before me in fast forward, so I was fairly confident I was dead. I was waiting for the proverbial bright light and couldn’t wait to run towards it, but all I had was deafening silence and darkness after the memories had ceased. The lack of light was my first clue that I apparently wasn’t being ‘saved’ and hoped that somehow I wasn’t really dead.
