tailieunhanh - The Lazarus Question (cities Of The Dead)

Geoffrey Haversill stared at the monitors showing Hristo Gruev and wondered what the hell was keeping the man alive. He had had nothing to eat or drink since being brought to the Centers for Disease Control’s headquarters a week ago, and the man had not died. Hristo Gruev wasn’t alive, either, not in any sense of the word that Haversill was familiar. But there Gruev was, on camera, swaying from side to side as if he were a blind man passing time listening to the rhythm of the world. | The Lazarus Question By William Young Published at Smashwords by William Young Copyright 2011 William Young Atlanta Georgia - Day 11 Geoffrey Haversill stared at the monitors showing Hristo Gruev and wondered what the hell was keeping the man alive. He had had nothing to eat or drink since being brought to the Centers for Disease Control s headquarters a week ago and the man had not died. Hristo Gruev wasn t alive either not in any sense of the word that Haversill was familiar. But there Gruev was on camera swaying from side to side as if he were a blind man passing time listening to the rhythm of the world. Haversill paused as he thought that line wondering what the musician s name was . Steve Stephen Stevie Not Stevie Ray Vaughan though that was the dude from Springsteen s band. Or was that Van Zandt Haversill drummed his fingers and stared at the man on the monitor the dead man walking. There was no way for him to be alive. But still there he was alive and kicking. Haversill riffled through the paperwork on the desk hoping something unusual or obvious would suddenly jump off a page signaling to him what it was he was looking for. They had tried to subdue Gruev and get samples from him but Gruev had fought them the entire time injuring one of the medical technicians Gruev was significantly stronger than a normal man given his build and had nearly overwhelmed the team. The few samples they had managed to obtain had so far had yielded nothing. Haversill had been watching Gruev now for six days and nothing about Gruev indicated the man was alive other than the fact he was alive. Confined in the small containment cell on the other end of the CCTV deep in the bowels of the building Gruev never complained. Never asked for anything. Made only the most superficial efforts to try to get out. Gruev only reacted to stimuli when one of the technician s would change his meal tray but Gruev didn t eat. He didn t drink. He didn t sleep. He just was. Got anything Sarah Purcell .
