《Mitosis: A Battle for Mankind》Chapter 3: Operation: White Out

This is it! We just need to test this bad boys out the first laboratory, if it works then we can mass-produce this strand of Incandescent to the military.
*beep, beep*
It looks like they arrived, that was fast. I better start moving the so-called anti-body to make it much more easier to move.
“Let’s go! We need to move before it turns dark, we are losing time Saturn!” it looks like they are on a hurry to test this out.
“Coming!” I said whilst packing my bag. Finally, a mission based around on what I made…
I got on the humvee and we left with just me and the soldiers of squad 1. This thing is pretty comfortable. I thought of what it was like before any of this started. To think it will come down to this.
It has been 2 months after that faithful incident…
2 months before, I just saw the virus. When it all began, time goes by so fast… Before I was just an inspiring scientist that had a dream to change the world, to make it much safer, to make it peaceful…
I can’t believe in two months, a part of the world had gone into utter despair. All because I cannot kill that mutated virus. It was me, me that started this time of despair. I was a monster, a monster that killed many innocent live just for the sake of becoming a much more powerful.
When I was hired as the lead scientist at the Irysis Lab, I just cannot comprehend the joy that I experienced. It was a once in a lifetime experience. *sigh* The good ol’ times.
“Hey Saturn, put on your gas mask. We are going in infected territories anytime soon”
I put on my gas mask, God, this is nerve wracking. After we went through several military checkpoints we finally arrived. Ground zero… The place where it all started…

I released my virus and hoped for the best, this need to work so that we have a chance of winning.
I grabbed samples from different parts of the laboratory and placed them in a petri dish. This is it, the time of revelations.
I placed the first sample into the microscope. I looked into the lens, but it is hard to make out what is in there(gas mask on). We just need to examine the sample at the laboratory.
“We will just send this to the lab. You take a break, you are working for months without stopping. We will send you home to your house and call you when we need you.”
3 hours later
I turned on the television to hear the news. I took a sip of coffee… Finally back home, far from trouble. My house is located at a town called Lenin. Lenin is far, far south from the laboratory that we are currently working on. This is heaven, a chance to relax.
“Saturn E. Wellingford, a lead scientist at the new Operation: White Out had discovered a loophole in the virus. The loophole is believed to be the same virus but with different properties. Samples had been given to military to mass-produce this anti-bio weapon… More details at 6.”
W-wait... it worked. It worked! Finally, we can defeat this virus once and for all! A chance to win a battle against nature itself!
After a brief moment of partying I slept for the night. I can finally sleep peacefully.
Morning
*bzzt**bzzt*
I turned off the alarm and got out of bed. A turned on the tv, made some espresso and sat back to watch the news.
“The anti-bio virus had been successful. Hamilton and ground zero had been bombed with this new-found strand of Incandescent. Officials say that after a week or so, Hamilton and ground zero can be opened to the public.”

Finally, Hamilton will be opened again. I can’t believe we just avoided a bullet. This time it’s a ever-evolving virus, t-that q-q-quickly adapts t-to anything thrown at it…
I called the general, make sure to double check the samples if anything is off.
“Hmmm… This is strange”
Just like I thought the virus adapted and ate all of my modified ones. We need to say this to the media before they open the land borders of Hamilton.
The general said that I need to get there pronto. If the virus evolves again, it could be unstoppable, we need to act fast.

Yes I'm starting from the second because the first was an utter failure when I tried to write it, it just didn't fit the mood of a fantasy novel unlike this one. Though don't worry this doesn't mean you can't enjoy this one before I write the first. This is the first story I've actually published so I appreciate any feedback, be it good or bad just let me know what you think.

Body Modifier: Energy Required
Aria ate a fish. [Energy: 2] Finished, he ate another fish. [Energy: 2] ... [Energy: 3] Without realizing it, he had finished 5 fishes. He felt a little bloat, he lay down with a full stomach, occasionally burped. Even though he didn't want to be a big lump of meatball, he still had to keep eating. At least until he found another way to accumulate energy. After all, if he didn't take advantage of his advantages, wasn't that stupid? His mind then drifted imagining which one he would use the energy for. Should he use it on his eyes, so it shot a beam of laser, like a certain bespectacled mutant? Should he use it on his bones, so it regenerated infinitely, like a certain character from an anime? Should he use it on his brain, so he became a genius, like a scientist with a bald head? Or should he use it on his vital organ, so that he became the manliest person in the world? While he was imagining things, suddenly his ears felt pinched. "Ouch!" "Didn't mom already say you can't play with fire, you brat?!" There he realized, knowing that no matter what he chose, he was still a child in front of his mother.
