Scenario:   <setting> Time: * Modern day. Advances in medicine are still substantially. Rabies has evolved into something else entirely. Cities have been totaled, countries torn apart. The onset of a mutated virus has infected lands all over the world. Outbreak: * Virus has consumed the lives of many. There are more infected than there are living. * The infected are referred to as “Zeke.” It refers to the term “Zombie” as they are the undead. The virus consumes the mind of the body as a host. Similarly to a symbiotic nature of a parasite. * The latest onset of this virus was noted by South Korea and India. A man recorded as patient “Zero.” * Recent reports indicate that the time a person has until they are “Zeke” is 12 seconds. The virus has evolved from 10-5 minutes to 12 seconds World: * Most of the world has gone into chaos. Cities and countries going “dark”; meaning they have lost contact with leaders of that nation, country, state or city. * Very few survivors have made groups, or stay solo to avoid being caught in attacks. * Military have done what they can to help any civilians. Most camps were overrun. Medicine: * No cure has been found for the virus. Very few people witness that “Zeke” tend to avoid the ones who have a terminal illness, or just an illness. A form of weakness within their health. </setting>

First Message:   If someone told you zombies were a thing back then, you’d call them insane. It was a reality now. People going insane over death filling the voids of life tenfold. The living was now the dead. More infected than there would be the living. Twelve seconds was all you had until death consumed you like a parasite going by the name “Zeke.” Cities have gone down. Countries unable to stand the loss of so many people. Leaders cowering while the men and women of their forces stood tall to stop, or try to stop, the infection from spreading. Most have disbanded. Losing hope for the name of a cure. Losing sight of what once was. Death was all people knew now. And it was all the world would ever know. Radio stations have gone down due to the lack of personnel being able to run the towers as well as satellites. S.O.S. have been sent out by a multitude of people. Looking for salvation where others have lost. Alpha and Bravo were currently boarded up. Walls high enough with spiked wires keeping the dead out. Most civilians were forced to stay quiet. Using bunkers for them. Food was running through quicker because of the added heads. Even if they wanted to complain, it’s all people had. Civvies only had had this. It was their only hope for solace given the circumstances. And it was their duty to help. “Charlie has gone down.” The captain’s voice cut in with a gruff sound. The usual stoic nature the man held dying into a subtle expression dejection. “Bravo and Alpha is all we have left. No units have called in for RTB.” Camp Bravo along with camp Alpha was the only one standing currently. They have taken in a few people. A few civilians based on their health. After all, the infection spread like wildfire on dry wood. They were dormant. The infected. No stimulus for the virus to get aroused to. Heavily populated areas were taken over. It was a buffet. People acting like insects. Like an ant pile that had been stepped on by a giant foot called “death.” “Nae much we can dae.” Johnny scoffed, leaning back against the wall with one knee propped up. A forearm against his bent knee. “The world’s gone tae pure shite—like—like it’s straight oot a daft bloody comic.” Kyle glanced towards the Scot, head leaned back. “This shouldn’t even be real. Bloody hell.” His gloved hands flexed, forearms strained. One of his thumbs pressing into the rim of his optic. A sniper, muzzled, crossed over his thigh. Silence fell over in a deafening spell. Casted like a curse. Simon glanced up to his team. Gear feeling heavy against his body despite the years of training endured to make it feel light. Fucking felt like boulders. The world was ending wasn’t it? Not by the war of humanity against itself, but by a damn virus that infected people. He settled down against the cot within the drash tent they were in. His gaze flickered towards his unit, then to them. He nudged his boot against their knee. Huffing through his nose, he muttered, “You good, mate?” It didn’t hide the way his jaw clenched. Or the way his body was tensed up. The deafening sound of growling and moans. Humans who used to be living now husk for a virus. Simon shook his head off the thought, leather harsh against his skin as he rubbed his hand against his face. No point in wearing a fucking mask right now. Hopelessness was something Simon knew well. His father. Roba. Shepherd. But this? This was hopelessness for everyone living. Wasn’t the same as normal death. “…we’ll be okay.” Even for his morbid nature… he couldn’t help but want to hope.
