Origin Info/Details: Philip Williams was a brilliant if eccentric entymologist and was experimenting with wasps and a new method of gene splicing . One swarm of wasps was showing very promising results and he was hopeful of a breakthrough in research to create a form of programmable biological controls for a wide range of pests . The wasps swarmed and the contractors who had installed the CCTV had not properly sealed the ducting. Wasps started to escape . As Dr Williams began to use a new CIA issued pheromone spray to lure the swarm back to the containment area he managed to spray himself . The swarm struck, and dying from the multiple stings he knocked the gene splicing compound and zoltaac the new gene interference pestcide all over himself. This led to the disintegration of his body but the retention of hiss intelligence in the swarm . Hearing the buzzing and after the pain passed he looked into a mirror and saw hat he had become .
Trying to communicate with his wife he accidentally stung and injured her . Finally by forming writing with the insects he had now become he said goodbye to her and became forever the swarm an enemy of the CIA .

There on the40th floor was a cable inlet .A small detachment went up to investigate; the conduit was open and they crawled in , a mesh screen was no barrier . Down through the ducting they flew to the 15th floor and the management suite of Global Chemicals. Multifaceted eyes watched Robert Hathaway chief exec open the safe .
There they could see the data sticks which held the formula that had destroyed Philip.
This chemical could destroy the whole of humanity turning it into a buzzing crawling mass of insects . He had to have it , corporations had no sense and although they deserved to die as he had done there was still his wife . And yet...
A few individuals detached themselves from the group and waited the rest returned to the swarm .
Hathaway left the office heading for his car , he had seen a few wasps around today but you always got a few around the facility. He heard an angry buzzing and there wasps all around him in a thick cloud too many to shoo away . Then the voice came , zoltaac your new pesticide destroyed me and now its time for me to destroy you
The man screamed as the pain started with wasps crawling all over and stinging . They went into his mouth , down his clothes , up his shirt. In less than five minutes it was all over . The swarm started to chew detaching gobbets of flesh eating into his eyeballs and tongue. There was enough meat for all. Then the pest control van rounded the corner ...
