Chapter 1
How much was one person supposed to take?
The fever overtook me a week ago. Because I was a girl, no one considered the possibility that it was anything other than a normal virus. The boys around the res were flipping like pancakes, all with the same symptoms as me. But when I got a fever, I got sent to bed with some medication instead of into the woods where the others could help me. I stayed there for a few days, getting hotter and hotter, until I couldn’t take it any longer.
“Mom,” I called, staggering out of my room, down the hall and into the living room, my comfy pj's and t-shirt soaked through with sweat. “Mom!”
“She’s gone to the store. Do you need something?” Dad asked.
“Dad, I . . .” I swayed a little. It was so damned hot in the house. I was shaking, trembling all over. Wasn’t that what people did when they got fevers? But I thought I was supposed to feel cold, not so damned hot. “I really don’t feel well. I think I need to go to the hospital.”
I barely got the words out before the bone-rattling vibrations began. The urge to stretch out as far as I could pushed at my skin from the inside. Flesh prickling itchiness burst out all over my body. I squeezed my eyes shut against the sensations. When I opened them again my dad was on the floor, fallen backwards over the ottoman. His head lay against the leg of the coffee table; his eyes were closed.
“Dad! DAD!” I tried to scream but all I could hear was a deafening, yelping noise. When I tried to lift my hands to cover my ears, I realized I couldn’t, not without falling down. I was standing on four legs now, instead of two.
