The first two chapters of a book I attempted to write back in 2010, but only got up to five chapters before giving it up. This was back when I was new to writing fiction, so it's very amateurish. The premise is that a plant wielding healing properties is discovered and experimented on by scientists. However, the DNA of the plant proves contagious when it's also revealed to act like a virus, infecting people, turning them into half-plant hybrids in a kind of hive mind.
