So I got to revamping my old stories in case anyone cares to have a read. I have a few of them and I will try to post one each day I have time and remember.
DISCLAIMER: I do not claim to be a good writer.

Audio logs of Chief Science Officer, Lieutenant John Abrams:
Day 1: Strafez poisoning is possibly one of the most terrible ways to die. No one deserves that death, not even these hardened convicts. Alas, we need a new weapon in the war against the increasingly ambitious Marauder incursions. All but a few of the subjects appear to have fatal reactions to strafez infusion. Subjects S07, S13, S32, S44, and S49 are the only ones to survive the infusion. These remaining individuals may be candidates for strain 106.
Day 6: Virus 106 has killed all but one of the remaining test subjects. Subject S32 appears to have incorporated the viral DNA into his own. My lord, he doesn’t even look human anymore! To think it has been less than a week since infection. S32 shows high potential. We’re going to need more subjects…
Day 15: An unforeseen accident has occurred this morning. Subject has come into direct contact with Commander Victor Crowley. Crowley almost died from the encounter, but the subject seems to have somehow managed to keep him alive. My colleagues will not remove subject S32 from Crowley for fear that the action will disrupt whatever is keeping Crowley alive. The virus appears to transform its host’s morphology in the most bizarre manner. Based on this morning’s ordeal, it must also convert the host to a parasitic lifestyle. As far as we can tell, Victor is mostly brain-dead. Further study will be needed. We`re also going to need a replacement officer for Crowley soon.
