The beginning of the end. The Apocalypse.
A nuclear fallout wiped out every living thing on the planet, except for a few thousand of us who took shelter in underground bunkers across the globe. Now, after thirteen long years, we were finally able to return to the topside to begin to rebuild.
We thought we were alone. We were never more wrong.
Before the fallout, scientists had worked on creating an anti-radiation vaccine (ARV). The first two attempts failed, but despite the incomplete tests and results, the government approved and distributed the third serum to the masses in an effort to aid those who had no shelter.
It worked, keeping those who remained on the topside alive, but it also altered and mutated them. This new and infectious threat had completely outnumbered us. Now, we not only had to rebuild our planet. We would have to fight for it.
My name is Abigail Park. I’m seventeen, and this is my story.
Excerpt
I walked up to the tarp and knelt
down next to it.
“Abi, I don’t think you want to
do that,” Finn whispered behind me.
“Why?” I breathed. My fingers
brushed the rough fabric.
“Because, it’s just not a good
idea,” he said.
He knew that wasn’t a good enough
answer for me. This was something I needed to see now. I needed to know what I
was up against, so that I wouldn’t freak out and freeze when I saw it for the
first time, alive. This was my way. I knew myself best, and I didn’t like
surprises.
My fingers carefully wrapped
around the edge of the tarp and then slowly lifted. I gasped, but couldn’t tear
my eyes away. Milky white eyes were wide and steeled on me. There was a strong,
putrid smell the mask could not block.
The creature was completely hairless, and its
skin was creased with countless wrinkles, appearing scabrous and leathery. It
was horribly pale. Purplish blue veins protruded and snaked all over its
body. Its eyes were sunken deep into
its skull; the teeth were horribly rotted and looked as if they’d been
sharpened at some point. Each finger was bony and curled. The nails were long
and sharp, covered with filth. I tried to search for anything that resembled
humanity, but there wasn’t much left. It was a sickly, horrifying
mutation.
Thick crimson liquid was seeping
from a bullet wound to its chest. It was something right out of a worst
nightmare. Suddenly its hand shot up and touched my arm.
I screamed and jumped back into
the sturdy arms of Finn.
“Don’t worry. It’s dead. It’s
just the muscles reacting to random impulses from the nerves,” Dr. Banks said,
covering the body back up.” I don’t think the others should see this.”
