EPIDEMIC

[On hiatus.] What would you do if the apocalypse started right now, forcing your entire town to its knees within twenty minutes (1,200,000 milliseconds)?

It was a generic summer day when Ben and Nate Healy's parents accidentally caused an apocalyptic viral outbreak, leaving the two teens to fend for themselves in the disease-ridden state of Florida. They're left with nothing but a series of videos and an entryway to a mysterious set of underground tunnels to find their way to the safe haven their parents have locked themselves in. However, after realizing the first video was broadcast to the public, they discover they're not the only ones looking to stay healthy.

Max and Margot Iyengar will do anything to get into that haven. After losing a friend to the virus, they make a pact to stay together and keep each other out of harm's way. But Max starts to see a different side of Margot-- the side willing to sacrifice anything to find a cure for the virus and save her girlfriend from the label of "Infected." Including Max and anyone else who comes across her path.

Fighting for their lives and a spot in the Haven, these four angsty teens team up to take on the other teenage gangs and the conscious diseased that roam the chaotic subworld of the tunnels. But can they survive the Epidemic without becoming Infected? Or will the hazardous disease of insanity get to them first?
