So when collector droids kidnap her mom, she knows she has to fight back to save her life.

Just when she's sure she'll suffocate inside one of the droids, a group of renegade scientists, the Deathless, save Isla and her mom. They tell her that that droids have been harvesting survivors as forced labor for the government.

100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)

Cyrus doesn't budge, clearly not willing to talk infront of us all. "Alright, everyone pack your bags we are leaving in the morning, and we are taking that car. If you want to try and stop us, just remember you're the ones that trained us," He finishes, dramatically flicking the safety off his gun and holding it at his side. ------- In a world following its fourth world war, Mazlynn, her family, and a few neighbors survive the bombings against all odds.

So I started reading Zombie Apocalypse Guides and in my part they were pretty stupid. My guess is that they came from America. Sorry Americans but most of your Zombie Guides are basically all common sense and stupidity. So if you really want to survive a Zombie Apocalypse. YOU need the Australian Guide, believe me. With the amount of common sense and brains Australians have we would probably survive longer and plus were not connected to the world. OK so if your from America I am really sorry if this Guide offends you. But for your own safety (if it EVER happens) read and follow my Guide to survive a Zombie Apocalypse
