Overnight, my life, along with that of the twenty-eight other passengers, had turned into a nightmare. No chains or shackles bound us; we’d committed no crime. And yet, betrayed by our own bodies, these walls would become our new home—our jail.  \nI scratched the back of my shoulder, the constant itching driving me insane. My nails, scraping over the hardening texture of my skin at that spot, provided me with no relief. From looking at it through a handheld mirror at the hospital, where it first manifested, I believed some sort of scales had started growing there. They counted among one of the many symptoms that had landed me here.  \nStealing furtive glances at the other passengers, none of them appeared to have any visible symptoms. Then again, my clothes hid mine. Theirs probably did as well. I rarely sat at the back of any bus, but this time, I’d gone straight for the farthest seat. Although it partially made me feel trapped, it also gave me a sense of security and safety not to have any of those strangers behind me.  \nSince the first cases of mutations started appearing a year ago, there had been plenty of stories of ‘infected’ people going crazy on the drivers taking them to quarantine. To prevent further incidents, the CDC had put old prison buses back in service to protect the drivers. It made sense but made my situation feel all the more hopeless.  \nStrangely enough, seven of us had clustered at the back, with everyone else piling at the front, except for the couple of oddballs sitting by themselves a few rows in front of us. Even during our wait at the hospital to board the vehicle, our little group had naturally gravitated towards eachother. We didn’t speak, having exchanged barely more than a greeting nod and worried glances. Nevertheless, the two men and four women surrounding me felt almost…familiar.  \nAs the vehicle slowed down, I stretched my neck towards the window to see what awaited us outside. One of the men in the front rows fired questions at the driver, again, as he’d done through most of the trip here.  \n“Hey! Driver! What is this place?” the man demanded.“How long we gonna be here? What’re y’all gonna do to us?”  \nHe and three of the other front-row passengers had been complaining almost non-stop over our one-hour drive to the quarantine zone.
