In 2011, a plane full of bug repellent was sent specifically to Canada from South Africa. Except it didn't make it to Canada. The plane was secretly flying over the North Atlantic Ocean on it's way to Canada when the blizzard started. Snow coming down in clumps and blocking the pilot's vision, he was controlling the plane downwards without even noticing. Now tired and half-asleep, the pilot continued heading downwards slowly, until the plane was over Virginia. The winds picked up, and the man lost control of the plane. The plane was blowing downwards faster, and the plane crashed into an open field somewhere near Richmond, Virginia. As soon as the plane hit the ground, the man was dead instantly. The impact of the plane from hitting the ground made the cans of bug repellent explode and break open. The repellent got into the air, and all spread all over Virginia, and soon enough, all of America. The gas inside the cans wasn't any ordinary bug repellent. The containers contained some sort of virus. A deadly virus that killed the people who came in contact with it. People who breathed in, or came in contact with the gas died, but didn't stay dead. Mya King was a ordinary young woman before everything started. A few weeks after her 21st birthday is when everything happened. Mya, along with the rest of the survivors are thrown into a world where you trust nobody, and its every man for themselves. How Mya fights to survive, is completely up to her.

The ice deep in the north has melted to reveal a new world hidden under the ice. It holds vegetation and animals that seem unworldly when compared to ours, but hidden in the deepest part of this world is another cave with the oldest surviving strains of an ancient bacteria capable of taking host of dead creatures and reanimating them into beasts worse than before. This strain had grown weak over the ages and was nearly extinct, but the human immune system, never being exposed to this, caused the strain to thrive inside its new unexpecting host and spreads out to the world. It starts small, just a speck on the hands of a few people, but soon, it spreads to door handles, pens, books, chairs, things like that. It continues spreading and now has infected its first corpse, the remains of an ant. This new creature comes and spreads to that ant's nest and then to the animals that eat them. Before less than a month passed, the virus had spread to a graveyard in the hidden grottos of the Yukon. This virus, now able to think from the new minds of fresh bodies, can strategize. In only another week, the epidemic had spread to the northern edge of the United States. Spreading further and further in, people began to notice this strange happening. From people disappearing to entire towns popping out of existence, the bacteria continued to spread. To keep order, the governments had those who disappeared erased from existence, but it wasn't enough. The takeover of those long gone happened in less than three weeks and society collapsed. Spreading overseas, it began its removal of life in Europe, but that's a story for another day. We now come to those few remaining settlements in the collapsed U.S, now called The Crumbled Land. What does this new land hold hidden deep in the remnants of its former glory?
