Synopsis for "The Killing Season Part Three"

Doc is giving a rundown of the sick and infirmed making it a total of 11 and now including O'Brien, Profaci, Lee and Jones and presumably Dr Elsa. He determined the best solution was to hike back to the lab about a six-day journey through the migration season of some wild carnivorous dinosaurs. Presumably Murphy and Colombo were not ill. Doc confronts Dr Elsa, and asked her if she made the virus, and she admits to it. she states that it is "an airborne virus that attacks the respiratory system. it causes edema of the cells, which leads to suffocation and ultimately, death." She states it was created as a weapon but for her she was interested in scientific breakthroughs and no war just progress. She states the maturation of the virus is eight days, and every day after that the likelihood of survival decreases without the antidote. She is pictured with blonde hair and blue eyes and hemorrhagic bullae on her cheeks and below her left eye with some active bleeding.

Shanna, Crowe and another unnamed member elect to make the long journey for the antidote with Doc. They set out on the journey into the woods and see a stegosaurus attacked by a herd of raptors. They decide to make camp and Crowe gets a shiver while urinating and tells his friend " I just got a mean shiver." and clarifies, "'Shiver'. Sometimes when you pee, you get a tingling sensation right up your back called a shiver." His friend replies "Crowe you're one chromosome shy from being a complete Cretin." And about that time his friend got eaten by a giant Tyrannosaurus Rex. Doc and Shanna hear the scream and run to the scene while Doc is grabbing his gun. Shanna recognizes the tyrant reptile king and gives a quick synopsis of the magnificent terrible beast. She adeptly evades the T Rex bite but it struck by the tail. Doc arrives with a gunshot blast to the neck, with what appeared to be a shotgun, but apparently only had one shot, as he retreats. Shanna fashions a lance or pick that she then implants into the thorax of the T Rex as he is charging towards her. She then leans over on all fours peering over the edge as the T Rex falls. She gives a lengthy explanation of the calculated mass and momentum of her adversary and the targeted area with the unknown factor of being would the spear escape his field of vision.

Shanna arrives to the base with a swastika on the door,with her two remaining companions and her little purple baby dinosaur, and states they arrived.

Notes

Reading the story after Covid, the virus described sounds very much like SARS of 2002 or MERS, and perhaps was to be used as a bio-weapon according to the Dr. Elsa, but for her it was only research.
