May 9, Year 3046. Clark Thorn's log #1. A patient came in yesterday. Name: Nickolus Burns. Age: 48. After some analysis, they appeared to have Stage 4 bone & brain cancer. But something was off... During neurosurgery, some of the cancerous bone tissue on the skull was glowing an orange-red color. The same compound was found on the brain, and on other various bones across the body. A few samples were taken to a lab for further study yesterday. Some of the more notable Sample areas were on the heart, stomach, and brain-stem. I thought I heard whispering while Nick was in stasis- in a voice that, to put it simply, isn't Nick's. It was barely audible, almost as if it was coming from in my head. I also saw areas that looked like they had been surgically cut, but they were areas I hadn't touched. I know that no-one else has worked on Mr. Burns yet, so I have no Idea how they got there. The tests from the lab came back today. Long story short... Burns has a new and mutated form of cancer, Designated "Mortuus Cancri." We are sorry to say that he is almost guaranteed to not make it. Thankfully all relatives of his have all passed away, and he has no kids to notify. All he has is a wife. We have gotten permission from her to see what other tests the lab can perform to see what we can learn from this new cancer offshoot. if he doesn't make it, that is. -------------------------------------------------------------- May 16th, Year 3046. Clark Thorn's log #2. Nickolus Burns past away 5 days ago. We sent him to the lab right before we shut down for the day. We told them to keep the body and subject it to intensive study, with permission from his wife. ##### ######### said that they would be happy to study this new form of cancer. We will be glad to hear the results. -------------------------------------------------------------- May 11th, Year 3046. Dr. Newman's log #1. A new test subject has come in today from the ##### Hospital. Nickolus burns, if I remember correctly. We are currently (eagerly) setting up some tests. We shall begin tomorrow. In the mean-time, we did an analysis on his hand. one notible feature is that they have almost-black colored blood. (press Space for a hand-drawn image of the hand.) A - "Scythes" grow from cancerous material into large blade-like appendages. Each one stabs into the hand, allowing it to be moved in unison with the fingers. B - "Finger claws" extend off the tips of the fingers, then curve. C - The "Thumb Scythe" breaks off from the radius, (one of the 2 bones below hand, specifically the one your thumb) and twists around the thumb. D - The "Finger claws" sometimes knock the fingernails off during growth. E - An immature Scythe. -------------------------------------------------------------- May 12th, year 3046.
