Man on an island, day 363

We reach home just before dawn, it's pouring with rain and me and Belatrix are soaked to the bone! I hastily open the gate to get us inside, while keeping an eye open for any suspicious activity. I bundle us inside before fetching some firewood I stored away. I am dying for some good stew! After the last couple of days, it feels so good to be back home and to be sitting in my rocking chair at the fire. I will have to go back later to fetch the bigger items and I want to have a look inside that military base, maybe send out an SOS or something. I slumber away with Belatrix on my lap, the sounds of the fire soothing me when I hear something...a scratching sound...could it be rats? then I hear a sneeze! It's coming from under the bed! I rush over and grab the person by the leg and I pull! You!!
