The moment they were released from decontamination, people swarmed forward like bees on some kind of mission.
Word had already started to spread that they had gone beyond the wall to tackle mutated beetles. Someone had added the words cannibalistic, so everyone was calling them the cannibalistic bees.
Embraces and relief continued to flow like a flood among family members and friends but not for the billionaires.
They finally found Sheldon who was being helped to the medic bay. As soon as they noticed his missing hand, questions poured like hail.
"What happened?"
"How the hell did this happen?"
They swarmed him, their panic louder than the rest of the crowd.
"We need to get him to medic bay now." A doctor told them.
They heard him and yet continued to crowd Sheldon who was wailing like a baby now that he was safe again and about to undergo the first surgery of his life. He was afraid that he was going to die on the table.
