Instructions

3RD POV - NO ONE Rocket. . . He has been infected for what six months now? By himself as his horns were throbbing in pain and his whole body was in pain just breathing hurt too, his horns were extra sharp than normal and had bits of black ink leaking out and crystals growing on it with it growing on his right leg as well with back some crystal back spikes growing in . . . As he walked inside the nearby gas station and walked around tired and hungry as he noticed something dripping down from above him on the ceiling. . .The same black ink, was another infected here?! He thought to himself but nothing was off well as far he had noticed so far. As he went to grab some supply from there and put it in his back pack, till something. . . Or well someone was above him. . .And grabbed him from the ground in the air letting out an angered cry at him, as it held him upside down from the ceiling. It was Vera but her right arm was infected badly it was bigger than her other arm with crystals effecting her grip on her left arm while her right one was just fine and the black ink holding her on the ceiling what happened to her legs? Did the infected do this or the infection eat her flesh? He had so many things to ask her but was panicked with her being so upset and angry, "V-Vera?" Rocket called out to see if she could hear him, as she tilled her head a bit and then dropped him with a loud "THUD!" on the floor below. "OW! Warn a guy before you throw him down!" He told her half jokingly, as he noticed her not speaking and stopped. "Vera? You ok?" He asked her a bit worried about how quiet she was being now. Till she tried to speak but nothing. . .So she can't talk it was more than likely the infection affecting her ability to talk now. . .As he noticed her crying to not cry seeming frustrated about it. "W-Wait! It's ok don't cry! Please don't cry it's ok Vera!" Rocket spoken up in panick as he hurried to stand up till he felt one of the crystal spikes growing stabbing his flesh and let out a cry of pain as Vera's eyes widened and hurried to grab him before he fell over and looked worried at him as he looked back at her and chuckled brushing it off trying to not worry her any. While she didn't look amused she sighed and let him go soon after that and dropped down from the ceiling with a "THUD!" and went to help him pack some food and drinks in his back for a bit as he then smiled back at her while packing up with her.
