Dr. Hall:
I was trying to find the connection between the baby, and Peter Jackson. I found something interesting with Peter, and eventually it led me to the connection between the two. Peter drank Sterno, a type of fuel. Sterno is made from alcohol, but it is much more dangerous to drink. Because he drank this, it made his pH level in his blood rise.
The baby cried a lot, which caused it to survive the Andromeda Strain. The virus can't like in acidic or alkaline environments, which the baby and Peter Jackson both created. After we discovered this, the virus escaped into the lab, and the entire level was placed under quarantine. Luckily, we discovered that the virus had mutated into a harmless form. I was able to stop the lab from being blown up because of contamination, and it was fine because of the mutations.

The Andromeda Strain
Dr. Stone:
The baby and Peter Jackson were both vital to us understanding the virus. We had to establish a connection between the two, but that was Hall's job. Leavitt and I were studying the virus to learn about how it grows and what it does to kill people. We found that is was green, and it turned purple whenever is started to grow. We also found that it grows well in many different situations, and it can even grown in a place without oxygen, (this is how it survived in space).
Leavitt and I also studied the satellite. We discovered that a very small rock had collided with the satellite, and the virus was on the rock. We also found a couple other spots on the satellite where the virus was growing. When studied at very high magnification, the rock almost looked like a mini-planet, and ideal place for the virus to grow. We also believe this rock caused the satellite to fly out of orbit and land near the town of Piedmont, which it wasn't supposed to.

Dr. Stone:
When we searched the rest of the houses, we found some people that had killed themselves, and some people that seemed to have died instantly. In one house, a family was sitting down for dinner, and it didn't seem that they noticed anything wrong. We believe these people were killed very quickly, before they had time to react to the virus. In other houses, we found people that had killed themselves. We believe the virus had driven them insane instead of kill them, and we aren't sure why. Then we discovered something very important.
We heard the screaming of a baby. At first, we thought we had imagined it, but we listened carefully, and we heard it again. We searched the town, and finally found the baby. It appeared to have nothing wrong with it, which was good because now we knew there was some form of immunity to the virus. We took the baby with us, because we imagine it could give us key results in finding the cure. As we were coming back from the helicopter, an old man came stumbling toward us. His name was Peter Jackson, and he was also a survivor of the virus.

The Andromeda Strain
Dr. Stone:
Today, I flew with Dr. Leavitt to Piedmont. We flew in by helicopter, and had to wear big plastic suits so we wouldn't get infected. Before we could land, we had to kill off birds that were eating the dead bodies so they wouldn't transmit the disease to other places. When we could finally drop into the town, it was horrible. There were dead bodies all over the streets, and there were a bunch of them. We looked around for the satellite, and we finally found it.
The satellite was in the town doctor's house. He had opened it with a chisel, which we believe started the spread of the infection. When we inspected his dead body, we found something very strange. All of the blood had completely coagulated. This means that all of the blood in his body had completely hardened into a solid. We searched other houses, and in one we found a man that had shot himself in the head, but there was no blood anywhere in the room.

Dr. Hall:
Today, while preparing to perform a surgery at my hospital, I was pulled from the operating room and taken to a car. I was taken because of Project Wildfire. I was very angry I got pulled from the operation, because I don't like to interrupt routine on surgeries. Anyways, when I was in the car, I learned all about Piedmont and the strange deaths that occurred there. I was mystified, because I had never heard of anything like this. I know of no virus that can kill within seconds. I was then flown to a secret lab in Nevada where we would study the drug.
The lab was very strange. On top, it was disguised as an agricultural center for the government. But, the 5 levels underground were anything but that. They had very strict sterilization procedures, like full body immersions in pools of chemicals, and even UV light sterilization. We had to wait a certain amount of time on each level before going to the next. We even had to wear certain clothes, and change them periodically. We finally reached the bottom level where we started our research.

Today, my wife and I were having a party at my house. People from the government came to my house and took me from the party, and I learned why when I got in the car. They had come to pick me up because of the Wildfire Organization I helped form. The Wildfire Organization was formed to study and cure any unearthly organism that could cause potential harm to humans. When I was on the plane to the lab in Nevada, I learned about the incident. It was in Piedmont, Arizona.
In Piedmont, a Project Scoop satellite landed outside of the town. The people in the town went to get the satellite, and when they brought it back, almost everyone in the town died within minutes. Most of the deaths occurred within seconds, but those who didn't die went insane and died soon after. I, along with 3 other scientists will research the virus. We are required to write our notes in a journal while researching the virus, so I'm sure you'll hear from all four of us. There are supposed to be five of us, but the fifth man is sick in the hospital.
