Sci Fi Plague Doctor Novels & Stories

But paradise on earth did not last, as the door rang, breaking everything we had. "Damn!" The doctor spits into the air, while it is clear that he is very upset that they have taken him away from me like that. So he hands me a robe and makes me put it on. I guess I can be grateful that sick gowns exist, which are so easy to put on and cover your entire body, or in this case, the scene of the crime.

Alex said while looking directly at me. Then, Brian and Chris informed Mia and me about the attacks that happened on their pack in the last few weeks. “What did that have to do with the doctor?” Mia asked and we all looked at three of them for some explanation. “When we reached the place where we got the clue that he might be hidden…We saw a different scenario. Different species who have unique powers and are strong enough to destroy a world alone were captured there… Doctor was not there when we went but we freed those people and eventually got bloody because of the fight”.

Lyka said excitedly. Well, I can't blame her. Because Doc Salvie is older for a few years, unlike me and Stephanie, the Doctors who are holding us are still fresh. "It's rude," I whispered then shook my head and went straight to the table where the employees of the Hospital where we were working were standing. "Delicious! The seafoods are obviously still fresh," Steph said. We all shared a few laughs before one of the Doctors with us decided to pray. After that we washed our hands and immediately ate until the food on our table was gone.

"You need to see a doctor." "A human doctor." I said bitterly. "In a human hospital. Far away from here." His lips twitched, not quite a smile but close. "We have a doctor here. Dr. Chen. He studied human medicine for years before.." He stopped himself. "He's qualified." Of course they did. "A werewolf doctor?" I asked. "Is he going to examine me or eat me?" Xavier's eyes flashed with something that might have been anger. "We don't eat people."

The signal. "What did you just do?" "Called for help. You didn't think I'd come alone, did you?” The door exploded open. Frank came through first, gun raised. Six armed men followed. "Dr. Chen. Step away from the doctor." Chen didn't move. "You're making a mistake." "The only mistake I made was letting you breathe this long." Frank advanced slowly. "Drop the scalpel." "Antonio won't let this stand." "Antonio thinks you're a liability. You think he cares about you? One phone call, one planted document, and Antonio will have you killed within the hour."

“The key... it wasn’t a lock. It was a trap for a virus!” The Specialist started coughing. Black ink dripped from his mouth, staining his clean white shirt. The gray frost on the beach melted. Marcus’s mouth moved, the waves started to move again. The Specialist was losing control, infected by human memories. "You... you’ve infected me with humanity," the Specialist hissed, glaring at June. "You’ve ruined the clean room!" He raised the scalpel, but his hand shook too much to hold it steady. "If I can’t remove the mistake, then I’ll remove the Doctor! If you die, the Spark dies. Then this whole world falls into the dark void!"

"Please lie down and take off your pants, sir. I'll do an examination," The Doctor said flatly while wearing latex gloves, then turned her body over professionally. "Are you read—" Luna stopped. Her eyes circled instantly. "Huh!? He... He is really my patient today?!" She thought. Luna blinked her eyes repeatedly, as if to make sure her vision wasn't playing tricks on her. "Ekhheem..." The man in front of him cleared his throat slowly, clearly deliberately.

I watch her eyes go wide and she scoots back, farther away from me. “Easy there. You just got me out of a trap. I may be a vicious Alpha when I’m hunting my pack’s attackers, but I’m not the kind of man who kills someone who just helped me,” I say. Because she didn’t give me her name, I’m resistant to giving her mine until I know what pack she’s from. “You said you’re a doctor?” “I’m studying to be one,” she says, watching me carefully. “For humans and wolves?” I ask her. It’s unusual and I’m in desperate need of a good doctor in my pack. My doctor needs to retire. I need someone young, someone intelligent, someone like my little mate here, to take over my pack hospital.

Dr. Sally Mokena arrived at the lodge shortly after the noon hour. She was accompanied by a man who she introduced as Dr. Michael Murry. She whispered that he was of the alien lineage and was the physician that they all sought care from. I assured her that she could speak freely in front of Roger and Pete, since we’d discussed the situation freely and had all agreed to be open minded and not ignorant about the possibility of aliens living amongst us. I admitted that I was still on the fence of resistance, but that I was leaning toward believing what they said about me was true.

Otherwise, I feared that if the doctor failed, Tom might do what the old women whispered about—the kind of cure that involved a needle and no mercy. Soon, I met the college-educated doctor, Dr. Cole Carter. To my surprise, he was a man. Even though I was a middle-aged woman, how could I let a male doctor examine such a private matter? I was about to leave, but Tom grabbed my hand. "If you don't get treated, how are you going to harvest the crops?" Thinking about how this condition had severely impacted our lives these days, I had no choice but to stay.
