After a few seconds, Pierre leaves the store and goes to Raoul, where he immediate puts his phone back into his pocket and gets up from that bench. He sees Pierre climbing down the stairs with his coffee on his left hand.
"Are you ready?" asks Pierre to Raoul.
"Yes." responds Raoul.
And now, these two are heading to a car, a Mercedes-Benz type, parked on the street. Raoul said to Pierre it is a nice car, and Pierre thanked him for this remark. Raoul is sitting on the back seat, while Pierre is going on the front seat, which means he is the driver of this car.
While Pierre is driving to a place, Raoul takes out a small notebook from the pocket of his jacket, together with a pen. And he starts to put some essential questions.
"So, you said there was an unusual thing happening here?"
"Yes." responds Pierre while he was driving, and he is noticing that he takes notes from him. "The thing I saw last night, before I was heading home, was a lady who walked on the street, with her clothes ripped."
"At what time did you see that lady?"
"I believe it was 22:12. Or much more later than that. I am not good with time, dude."
"Alright." says Raoul while he is noting the information Pierre is giving to him. "Did you do something when you say the lady?"
"I approached the car there, stopped there, and when I did, that lady just jumped on the window. Growling and screaming something I did not understand."
"Really?"
"Yeah. I believe this lady was probably on drugs or drunk, because when I tried to get off and talked to her, she jumped over my car and used her nails to attack me. She also bites my arm."
"Really?" asks Raoul curious.
"Yes. Look here."
He shows to Raoul his left arm, he sees that it has a small bite mark there. There is also scars on the left arm which means it was coming from the lady nails rather than her bite. Raoul doesn't know what are those bite and scratches, but he thinks the lady it is drunk, or she consumed drug substances, but he doesn't know that this problem is deeper and more complex than he thought.

A few moments later, Raoul and Pierre reached the street where everything was happening. Pierre re-explained the story of how he got bitten by that crazy lady, and he also told how he immediately run into the car and drive to his house to call for the police.
"And they found her?" asks Raoul while he was noting something on his notebook.
"No, they didn't." responds Pierre. "They came here, and they didn't find any clue here."
"So. Let me get this straight. You called me from Paris, to come here and cover a story of a drug addict? Do you think I have time for that?" asks Raoul feeling angry.
"No, no. Um. I know it sounds stupid for a reporter who covers the most important news, but this one might be your ticket to the popularity."
"Popularity? For what? For seeing a drug addict. Yeah, no, thanks."
Raoul leaves Pierre while he is still insisting for saying that the story is true and there might be something crazy going on with that lady, but while Pierre was walking to Raoul and tried to convenience him here it is the real deal, Pierre is suddenly coughing, which made Raoul turning back and looking at him. He sees Pierre falling on his knees and coughing like he got hit pretty hard on his stomach by a metal ball.
"Are you feeling alright?" asks Raoul going closer to Pierre which is coughing harder. Then, the blood came out from his coughing, and Raoul back away and calls the ambulance to come and pick him up.
While Raoul was calling for the ambulance and speaking with the operator there to come and take care of Pierre and explaining his situation, the man called Pierre stopped from coughing, and he sees the arms. He looks horrified to see them becoming pale in just a matter of seconds, then, he sees blue veins coming out from his arms. He also sees the red one who are becoming darker.
Raoul turned back to see Pierre how is holding, and when he sees him becoming pale in a matter of seconds, he drops the phone, and he looks shocked at him. Thankfully, Raoul called an ambulance to come and pick him up to the Emergencies and to the nearest Hospital from here.
"Hey! Hey!" says Raoul to Pierre coming at him, and shaking him up. "Are you alright?"
"L-Leave. Me." says Pierre to Raoul with a dying voice while his eyes are starting to lose his pupils.
"What? Why?!"
"Leave me... You better hide... Now..."
Raoul backs away from Pierre, very scared by this situation he got himself into. At the moment he gazes at the poor Pierre who is screaming in agonizing and sees his body changing the colour and all, he remembers the same thing it has happened in a movie once he watched with his brother when they were little kids. He remembers that the transformation this man is suffering it is the equivalent of transforming into a zombie or meat eater creature. Raoul decides to run away from that location to somewhere else safe where this thing will not haunt him down.
While Raoul was running, Pierre in zombie mode is raising from the ground, and he walks to the direction where Raoul fled. He walks into a very slow walk, like a human who got a broken leg, and he tries to show to the crush that he is feeling alright.
