Not exciting! You are, as usual, too modest for what could be more exciting and dramatic than a bout of flu! The drama! The action packed battles! The heroic quests for redemption! It's all there:
Deep in the sunless back alleys of Cellsville a naive Killer-T cell on his first patrol makes a horrifying discovery. Ordinary citizens are becoming completely unproductive and unresponsive: as if they are dead! And yet they continue to squirm and move and, as they make contact with other previously solid citizens these others become Undead as well! Naive Killer-T cell's frightened cries bring a squad of beat cops (leukocytes) but they are helpless against this rapidly growing Zombie Horde. CSI analysts (macrophages) are called in to autopsy disabled Walkers in the hope of finding a solution to this Zombie Apocolypse.
Martial law is declared and troops (Killer T-Cells) are dispatched to the streets. Despite their best efforts the Zombie Horde continues to grow into the millions! The Naive Killer T cell is unnerved and, to the taunts of his comrades in arms, flees in terror.
And yet all is not lost! For in the wilderness to which he flees the Naive Killer T cell finds a wise sensei (dendritic cell) who teaches him the unstoppable Suio Wave Slicing Technique against which the Zombies are helpless. Taking the nom de guerre "Activated Killer T cell" he fights many pitched battles against the invaders in the bloody streets (blood vessels) of Cellsville. His exploits inspire a whole new generation of Killer T cells! Millions flock to his dojo (thymus). Although it is a VERY tough school (5% pass rate) soon his New Model Army is battling the Zombie horde on all fronts!
Then the crucial breakthrough comes! CSI has determined that the Zombies cannot say the sacred name "C22 H28 N2 O5"! The commissioner (Helper T cell) commissions the "Gaffer" (B cell) to construct a probe that will identify all who bear the taint of the Undead: even before their hideous affliction becomes apparent. Soon all who bear the stigmata are slaughtered.
The purge that follows is ruthless! The heat is, quite literally, turned up so that the rotting Zombies dissolve faster! Whole regiments of Zombies are trapped in tar pits and then ejected into the Void beyond the integument: ker-chew! The elite assassins of the Secret Service (Natural Killer cells) are sent out to eliminate even those who somehow dodge Gaffer's probes. There is some collateral damage (innocent cells and a disruption of whatever that electrical activity that's always going on in the brain) but this is TOTAL WAR!
Soon the entire affair is the stuff of legend (immune system memory) that will inspire future generations and all is well in Cellsville.
