General Waldrop stood next to the scientists with his nerves wracking. Lead Scientist McArthur cleared his throat, `` Gentlemen, today,'' his voice caught in his throat, `` today we have made the death of humanity the easiest thing possible. Behind this door we have the power to ruin the world.'' General Waldrop gulped. The war had been horrible but he did n't want to kill the entire world. 
 After the banning and destruction of all nuclear missiles the world's `` peaceful'' standoff ended and erupted into an old fashion war. Trenches, bullets, bombs... it had been horrible. He hoped to use this to end it all, but at what cost? McArthur straightened his coat, `` shall we see men? Let us see our own personal Grim Reaper.'' 
 The door let out it's pressurization and opened. General Waldrop winced not knowing what to expect. 
 A moment of silence passed. 
 The men looked at each other. 
 A quiet `` meow'' was let out and a tiny kitten bumbled his way out of the holding tube. He looked up at the men, their hearts melted with joy. 
 McArthur picked up the tiny kitten, `` well, looks like we failed, but it's the best failure I've ever seen, is n't it little guy, is n't it?'' The men crowed around the kitten petting it. A minute passed and they were enthralled with tiny little ball of fur. 
 The kitten sneezed. The men giggled. 
 `` Look at his little face,'' General Waldrop was the happiest he'd been in years at that moment. 
 McArthur coughed. He coughed again. 
 The scientist next to General Waldrop wiped at his nose and had blood on his hand. 
 The men looked at each other in fear. McArthur put the kitten down and walked a few steps back. He coughed again, bringing up blood this time. He began to convulse. 
 General Waldrop felt his heart speed up. It continued to beat faster and faster. His vision began to blur. He looked over at McArthur who had started to choke on his own blood. He turned to the other scientists who had all fallen to the ground dead. General Waldrop wiped at his mouth. Blood. He looked at the kitten, it meowed. It began to rub against his leg. 
 He picked it up. He tried to put his hand around it's neck and break it but he was too weak. The kitten licked at his hand and it burned him. 
 He put the kitten down, coughed, walked over to a chair and sat down. He could feel the blood running from his nose. He watched the kitten bound out of the door of the lab. General Waldrop looked up trying to see God. `` Forgive us.'' He coughed again wishing he'd never become a soldier.
