"We will survive! I know you're little and I know it's scary - but you're strong, smart and fast - one of these days, you'll be a warrior."

Mother nature is taking back her land by force. By disease. She's playing a game and mankind are her chess pieces.
I'm Nate Higen. I'm a killer, a thief, a bandit. And now I'm entrusted with a nine year olds life... I was in a group of bandits until now, not out of desire to do wrong but out of desire to survive in this harsh world - for almost a year creatures with a taste for flesh have been roaming and civilization has fallen apart.
But right now my priority is to get this little girl to a military camp up in Washington - I don't know how someone so young will handle this harrowing journey but I will do everything I can to ensure we make it. But the thing is, those creatures? They're are the least of our problems...
