Internal Combustion

3000 years ago there came a plague among the 12 tribes of the Manding people of the coast of West Africa. Thousands died a horrible death as helpless survivors watched. Desperately they boarded ships and sailed west for another land. They sailed thousands of miles before they finally saw land. They believed that they were free from it and all remembrance of it was purged from their lore for fear that to speak of it could cause its return. The legends faded. Visitors came from far away telling of a great priest whose followers were said to become immortal, but unbelievers would see the eternal fire. The legends of the plague resurfaced and mingled with that of the priest said to be the Son of the One True God. The elders forbade to speak his name saying that it would anger the gods and the plague would return. The plague did return, and from remains found in ancient Peruvian burial tunnels, one man’s quest for vengeance brings the U.S. to panic amid an epidemic of spontaneous human combustion.
