Am I dead?

Darkness surrounds me and memories of that machine being used on me resurface.

My whole body aches.

I guess I'm still alive then.

I look around the dark. A figure moves and I nearly scream but its tall and familiar.

"T-Thrax?"

He grunts back at me aching from the change as well.

He finds my hand and leads us towards something, I don't know what.

"Where are we?"

He doesn't answer too focused on something else. I squeeze his warm hand noticing that my own are very cold.

"Are you okay, your so cold?"

I'm a bit angry he dodged my question but more shocked by his concern.

"I-I'm fine, are you alright?"

He tenses, I can tell he doesn't believe me.

"I feel like shit but its nothing, I think we are in a hair follicle."

After some time we spot light in the distance, reaching this entrance I look out to see a strange sort of microscopic city. Cells and bacteria living within strange buildings and driving cars on roads. Its bizarre but by now I should have been expecting it.

"We will need to stay out of sight."

I look up at him confused.

"I'm a virus and your some sort of foreign entity, this means we aren't exactly welcome around here baby."

I nod my head smiling.

"Guess we are on the run again."

Laughing we make our way to a virus friendly part of the body.

 Thrax decides on a particularly terrible neighborhood to hang around. It's gross but I trust his judgment, for some reason. There is a large amount of green deformed creatures lazing around glaring at us as we pass.

"Thrax, what are those?"

I whisper staying as close as possible to him.

"Bacteria, germs, filth... whatever term you prefer."

His confidence is greatly reassuring.

As we continue forward the area gets more decrepit and filthy. I nearly step in dead germs multiple times but am able to avoid them. Our journey takes us to an unpleasant group of creatures yelling at each other. Thrax smiles wickedly and I know he has a plan forming in that nasty mind of his.

"Hello filth."

They turn their hateful eyes from each other to Thrax and myself. One of them slurs back.

"What dya want ya red cyst?"

His smile remains.

"I was just wondering who's body I'm in."

He looks at his claws like a woman inspecting her nails. Looking back up at the germ's scowl he awaits a reply.

"We're on a lab rat ya dumb bastard."

He barks loudly in Thrax's face.

"Thanks, you are no longer of use to me."

I look on in horror as a heated claw is plunged into the midsection of the overweight germ. It tries to fight back for a moment but soon it's membrane boils turning him to a strange green puddle on the ground.

The group that had been with him recoils in fear and scatters, running from Thrax. Thrax boredom watches them sprint away flicking the germs remains from his hand. 

"Common baby, let's blow this joint."
