Violence for love

Red is the colour of love. Red is the colour of blood.

It was supposed to be a whole new world, a fresh start, with endless possibilities.

When the human accidentally inhaled his partner’s droplets of coughs.

They were given a chance to start anew in his life.

And they did exactly that. They multiplied and built a community.

A community where they all lived together. A community where they all loved each other.

Swimming around the body with their little tails, releasing toxins and creating even more friends.

They were happy.

But it didn’t last long. The human started taking antibiotics.

They started dying, one by one. The white blood cells had been killing them with the help of the medicine.

At first they tried to stay strong, they tried to fight back.

But they were too powerful.

No one knew if they would be alive the next day. But they all knew that eventually all of them would die.

He watched all their friends die in front of them, wishing that it could've been him instead.

Life became hell. Everyday was filled with pain and suffering.

Why was this happening to them? Was the crime of existing really that bad that they had to be punished?

He had lost their friends, their family. He was the only one left. He knew what was going to happen next, he knew death would finally come for him too.

But it didn’t.

He waited another day. But he was still alive.

There was only one explanation for this. The human stopped taking the medicine before he reached the amount of days he had to take it.

He gave himself a moment of grief for all the loss. But he knew what he had to do. He knew what he must do to avenge his friends.

He learned the ways the medicine previously attacked them, he knew how to survive it now.

So he multiplied like he used to. Only this time, they would be resistant to antibiotics.

They spread out everywhere. Multiplying more and more. Leaving the human with no treatment for it.

Afterall, what’s the murder of a man who had killed countless of their friends? What’s one more death to avoid all deaths altogether?

Love had brought them to life. And now love will cause his death.
