Apparently, it's a what's defined as a "Plot Device" type virus. That's not breaking the fourth wall, it's just scientific mumbo jumbo the Labtechs made up.
It's mostly a cellular regeneration formula. When injected into a healthy human, it causes their weaker aspects to be supressed. This causes the infected person to either
A. Get super powers, like Gino, or
B; Go crazy, like Gambino
However there are other results of infection.
The most obvious result of infection is Zombification.
The Zombie was created when while infecting a Grunny with the G-virus, an accident occurred in the lab, killing said Grunny. The Virus infected the grunny's cells, supressing it's weaker aspects (I.E. The whole dead thing) and making it a zombie!
The same thing happened to a labtech. I think it was 247? or maybe it was something else. They all look the same to me.
So anyway, I took a stroll though Gambinos mansion as it was during Halloween 2k4.
(Don't ask how, I just did.)
It was vaugely disturbing. I should have picked up one of those lab coats before the Bomb hit.
Anyways, I snuck into "Ye olde Secret Underground Research Faclity" to grab some info before Bucho made the missle hit.
I found some interesting stuff.
Look at this:
G-CORP: G-VIRUS TEST LOG 867
EXPERIMENT: VIRAL TRANSMISSION PROCESS
RESEARCHER: Labtech1337
SUBJECTS: Two laboratory mice.
DATA: As we have already proved with our previous test, we have found the virus can be transmitted though it coming in contact with the blood. However, we must know if there are any additional methods of transmision, so before we administer the virus to young master Gino, we can prevent any accidental infections.
DAY 1: I've injected the virus into labrat number one. As expected, it's become stronger and more intelligent, but the other mouse remains the same. I'll wait and see what happen to number Two.
DAY 5: Labrat number two is showing no signs of infection yet, but there was a bit of an accident with number one...
I seem to have given him an overdose of the virus, and he's beinig to be over powered by it.
DAY 6: How extraordinary! Mouse number one succumbed to the overdose while in the same cage as the control mouse. When subject number one was about to die, he seemingly absorbed the other subject! The G-virus's lack of living cells led it to mix them with the closest living thing! And Subject two is beginning to show even greater signs of infection then number one! And with no ill effects!
Amazing!
DAY 28: LabtechX has created an Antibody for the virus. He doesn't seem to give a reason for it though. He gave me a Vial in case I should ever need to test it.
DAY 30: Incredible! I've just tested the antibody on my lab mouse!
The reaction was violent. It's cells, which have been made unstable by the virus, violently mutated, releasing massive amounts of energy, nearly destroying the lab! I was knocked back by the blast, but when the dust cleared, I saw Labrat 1 standing there as clear as day! I'm not sure what has happened to subject 2, but this finding is amazing! I must report it to Mr. Gambino, this is what he's been looking for all these years!
END FILE
What could this mean? Was Gambino planing for the events of April fools day the whole time?
I never found out. Silent Flash Protocol hit and I was thrown back to the present day before I ran into a pardox. Time travel is painful.
Anyway, This halloween I'm going to get the dirt on this "G-virus" if it kills me, and then unkills me, and then kills me again!
Take that Cindy Donovinh! domokun
