Things to take note: The story is in Alex’s POV , two nights before Ivan (the smoking cousin) a.k.a Haze got infected and turned into a smoker.Alex got rabis infected when he was a child , there were still faint trails of his “dog state” when he was angry, the rabis infection also prevent Alex to turn into an infected.

I had been lost more than ten times ,mostly physically though ,but there this time I was lost metally - in my sleep , in my nightmare. It was my worst nightmare.
My sleep started normally-at first. Dreamless and thoughtless in the cold and harsh night. “God , this is really getting awkward ! I cant’t even sleep !” I roared , my rabid side slowly showing. “Hey , stop shouting and GO BACK TO SLEEP ! We all need to rest !” screamed my smoking cousin who was puffing right next to me.”Shut up and sleep!” “Fine.” I muttered , putting my stone-hard pillow above my face and trying my best to sleep, or was I choking myself? Well ,never mind , this ‘method’ turned out to work well and I was soon asleep due to the lack out fresh air.
Dreams , since the day I was bitten , was red , bloody red - the result of my green-flu-carrying blood ,where I got this so-called infected vision when sleeping.But this time my vision was dark red , so dark that it was almost black , and it has this green haze with the smell of burned tar drifting around.The haze was somehow familiar to me , as the smell reminded me of what I am - a chain smoker
As time passed ,the dark-red vision of mine slowly turned to normal - back to the standard infected vision . Slowly ,my vision cleared and the haze seemed to have condensed a little, revealing that I was in an old mansion that I lived when young, but this one seems to be a little distorted ,or rather ,haunted. The floor board were all snapped ,all the painting on the walls were either inverted or were dripping blood. But worse of all ,is the family portrait- almost all of my relatives’ eyes were glowing , among theme , some are puffing smoke ,while others eyes were all dripping blood. But the weird things is that my face was completely alright , with the exception that all the smoke and blood were flowing towards the face , it looked as if I was surround by my whole family of infected , special infected -hunters , smokers and witches.
Then out of no where , I heard a noise which was similar to the sound when I was riding in an old elevator. I span towards the sound instinctively ,only find myself looking at some sort of labyrinth. As I was still wondering whether to enter , I notice a red glow appeared beside me  ,and a female voice wailed in a tone that was as cold as death , “Run Alex , RUN !” At first I hesitated ,but upon seeing that the one who had just spoken was actually Mandy , my beloved cousin who was presumed dead after being mobbed by an entire horde of commons.She was stilled dressed in that blue hoodie which I gave her for her birthday buy her face was twisted in an awkward angle and her fingers had turned into a pair of fearsome claws with the length of nine inch and as sharp as razers. She stared at me idly for a while before jumped onto her feet and gave out a completely soulless scream, with that , four tentacles exploded out of her back. “That scream ,the scream of a witch and the tentacle of a smoker, did she turned into a witch-and-smoker hybrid? No , that was not possible , it was just a dream , Mandy is alright , nothing had happened to her !” I reassured myself before took off running.
The red dyed vision of mine swap around the endless maze as I search for the exit , which ends in vain .As the I was sprinting at my top speed with Mandy charged after me, it was just like a predator chasing her exhausted prey , and exhausted mean that the prey will be hunted in no time. The prey was me,who was panting and whizzing ,trying to get as far from Mandy as possible , but luck had left me 4 dead - the road was blocked by a huge stone. “No!” I screamed as I tried to remove the stone in front of me , but it did not budge at all!
Suddenly , I felt some slippery rope coiled around my leg and a second later , I found myself flung through the air straight to my cousin , the reason? Her tentacles had wrapped around my ankle and tug me off with titanium force. As I landed hard on my back right next to Mandy, who were now a horrible looking mutant , purple smoke gasped out from her mouth and almost immediately , I started to feel dizzy and my eyes started to grow heavy. I tried my best to keep them open , only to find that Mandy was standing just next to me, ready to stick her claws into my chest.
With the last bit of strength , I whispered :”No.....no.....no....”
Alex 's dream before Ivan turns into a smoker.There might be grammatical error , as my english is not that good ......
