Seychelles peaked into the greenhouse, there were many kinds of flowers there. Her eyes glittered in amazment. She had never seen so many flowers before., due to the fact that she lived on an island all her life. At that time, she as giving herself a tour of the place when she spotted the roof. Seychelles viewed the flowers in all shape and sizes when she spotted a very familiar flower. It was the tropicbird orchid, her country's national flower. She inched closer to the flower and gently grabbed the flower buld. She smelled the flower. Then suddenly, images flash through her mind. She was in the living room. Being tutored by her mother. When suddenly, her father ran in. He told mother, " get Seychelles out of here quick before..." beore he ended his sentence, something pulled his leg and he was dragged out of the house. Seychelles could hear the screaming of her father. Immediately, mother shut the door and grab my hand and ran to the highest floor of seychelles house. Wat Seychelles saw was a helicopter and a man waiting for someone. Mother rushed to the man and pleaded for his help. Seychelles turned around and saw human beings, that looked dead and hungry, making their way to her. Seychelles let out a scream. Immediately, Seychelles was pulled into the helicopter and the door was shut. Seychelles looked out of the sindow and realised that mother was still outside. Mother turn her head toward seychelles and mouthed the words," stay safe, my dear." With that the helicopter took off and seychelles saw the terror of the mother eaten alive. Tears rolled down her cheeks non-stop. Through the view of the windo, she could see her people turning into zombies one by one. Seychelles mutered," I'm so sorry everyone," Immediately after the flashback, Seychelles backed off and fell to the ground. She started to weap non-stop.

Singapore was doing a check up on the plants. As a groundskeeper, it was her job to do these kind of things. She enjoyed it though, the greenhouse had a lot of wildlife that she recognized, it reminded her of home. But there were some that she didn't know existed, she learned more about them later on from other countries.
But as she was about to water one of te plants, she heard a sob. Singapore was shocked. She bent closer to the flower and put her ear to it, suspicious of the thought that the flower was crying. But the sob didn't come from the flower, obviously, but it came from behind her. She turned and noticed a small movement behind a row of plants. She walked towards it cautiously, as she did she grabbed a knife from her pocket and put it in front of her. Singapore couldn't be too careful, for all she knew it could be a zombie that had breached the warehouse.
But she was proven wrong, as she looked closer at the movement, she recognized a figure of a nation. It was a girl with brown hair pulled up into two pigtails, she had fair skin, and was wearing a blue dress. Knowing that this wasn't a threat of any sort, she relaxed and kept her knife. She walked toward the crying nation and patted her shoulder.
"Hey, what's wrong?" she asked. "What's your name?"

As soon as Seychelles felt something on her shoulder, she looked up and realised a female nation, worry written all over the nations's face. Seychelles almost thought that it was a zombie. She stopped sobbing and stood up. " Im okay... Thank you... My name is Seychelles... Your Singapore right?" Seychelles forced out a smile.

"Yep, I'm Singapore! Nice to meet you Seychelles!" Singapore answered.
She was certainly happy that she was recognized by the nation and felt a little guilty not knowing the other nation's name beforehand. Well, at least the introductions are done. She looked into Seychelles's brown eyes and noticed that her eyes were watery. So it was her crying after all!
"Why were you crying?" Singapore asked.

As soon as Singapore asked that question, Seychelles had no idea what to say. She was'nt comfortable telling someone she just met her fears."Well... I...um...because..."Seychelles nevously said while thinking of a excuse or topic to say instead, but there wasnt any excuse she could think of, " because....I miss my homeland."
Singapore understand. She knew how Seychelles was feeling now. Singapore patted Seychelles head, " Its alright, i understand how u feel." Seychelles smiled at the fellow nation. She grabbed Singapore's hand and pulled her to her national flower, the tropicbird orchid.
"This is the tropicbird orchid, my favourite flower." Seychelles said,"It brought many good memories...and bad one too." The greenhouse soon was filled with silence.

((SEYS!!!! DID YOU READ MY PM TO YOU??))
Singapore completely understood. She missed her home too. As much as she wanted to comfort her, she also wanted to tell herself that she too was in the same situation. She sighed. What was there to say to her? Singapore was just like her!
Then, Seychelles pulled her to an orchid of some sort and introduced the unfamiliar plant as a tropicbird orchid. It was a rather interesting flower. Singapore observed at the orchid and studied the soil. Even though the flower was new to her, she could tell that it was sick. She carefully plucked a leaf from the orchid and put it up. It was too yellow for its original color. She prodded the soil and sniffed at it. There was something in the soil. She moved some of the soil aside, careful not to uproot the orchid, and found something quite astounding.
She picked up a small... something of what looked like mutated insect. It resembled a bit of a butterfly, but it moved like a worm. Could the zombie mutations also have affected insects?
"This is disturbing..." Singapore muttered.

((I just did... But i not quite understand)) Seychelles saw Singapore picked up the... Insect. Was that really an isect?? It looked...mutated. Seychelles stared at the weird looking insect. "That looks nothing like an insect." Seychelles said. What was worse was that the flower wasnt how it looks like when she first came here. It looked like it was decayimg. The petals were changing shape and colour. The whole flower crumpled into a purple coloured buld.
"Somethings not right, when I came here this flower was not like this!" Seychelles shouted. Immediately, Seychelles pulled the flower out and dropped it on the floor. The roots of the plant was growing longer and longer. Whats happening to the plant?? It is turning into some kind of zombie plant?? Was it possible that even a plant can turn into a zombie??

She saw the flower turn into a horrible color and started rotting. She saw Seychelles rip the flower up and noticed that the roots were still growing at a rapid speed. She didn't understand. Why was a plant turning into something like this? Could it be possible that the mutations have evolved into something that could harm plants? Singapore looked at the plant again and noticed that the roots were already reaching her legs. She pulled out her knife and sliced the plant. Almost immediately, the plant stopped evolving.
"Something's wrong. How can the the mutations affect not only insects but plants?" Singapore asked herself out loud.

Just when the roots stopped evolving, the flower buld itself was growing bigger and bigger. What was happening?
Seychelles stared at Singapore, confused with what was happening. Seychelles took a step behind. She was using her hand to find a weapon nearby. She had not thought of bringing her shovel together on the self-tour. Seychelles hand was fiddling the ground, while her eyes were staring at the mutant flower, growing at the speed of an animal walking. Seychelles' manage to grab hold of something, an axe. What was an axe doing in a greenhouse?? Thought Seychelles. She grabbed hold of the axe firmly, ready for anything that would strike Singapore and her.

Singapore was not just worried, she was scared now. If she had her rifle she could shoot the plant and the sound would bring help at the same time. Unfortunately, she didn't have her rifle. So all that was left was to fend off the zombie plant by themselves. She saw Seychelles grab a nearby axe. Singapore took another knife so that both of her hands were occupied with knives. Singapore watched the plant bloom bigger and bigger. Singapore slashed the flower again and threw her knife into the center the flower. The mutation slowed down, but didn't stop. At this time, Singapore was scared, worried, and desperate.
"Someone help us!!!!!" she screamed.

Seychelles was about to panick. This thing would not stopp growing and Singapore's getting scared. Seychelles remembered someone in her past teaching her the vital parts of a flower. She tried to recall most of it. This was their only chance. She does not want all the other plants turn into some mutant zombie plant.
"Singapore," Seychelles said, " i need your help to cut as many leaves as possible." Seychelles gave Sinapore the axe. "While that happens, I'll retrieve your knife."
They had to work together to get out of this mess
