Year in Review: Prologue

Once upon a corporate time there was a micro-organism which managed to do magic with whatever it had and received. It spent a good while growing slowly but steadily, when suddenly, it exploded like a nova gone berserk, and started gobbling up everything around it including innocent bystanders (an oxymoronic phrase if there ever was one). Most of the victims were assimilated and ceased to exist individually. Others were on the brink of losing it or their sanity. Still others managed to do the unthinkable, and actually escaped, only to be caught by other such predatory organisms, mostly similar in size. The remaining attained freedom, if not in anything else, then atleast in identity. Little did they know that it wouldn't last...but that's another story, for ours deals with Victim #61339...atleast till the moment of his escape.
