I have the best life, friends, a boyfriend, a loving family, and my house isn't bad either. I'm on the Lacrosse team at my school, I'm captain actually. At least I was. I was halfway through my senior year, applying for scholarships, planning which college to go to, and deciding on an apartment to share with my best friend. Then it all went wrong. One of the kids at our school got sick, and he didn't get better.
Cheyanna thought she was prepared for the worst, her boyfriend breaking up with her or not getting accepted into the college she wanted, but this was much, much worse. The people around her started to get sick, and so did people around the world. She was thrust into a new world where survival of the fittest was the rule, the one and only rule. She had to learn to protect the people she loved, or live without them.
This is an older story, I've gotten better I promise.
"I first held a gun when I was eight. I remember a man strolling across a line of other children like me, he said: 'We all have a soldier in us.' I found my soldier. But then, it became all I was. "
Being forced into the army at a young age, Olivia knew nothing more than fighting. But after suffering a debilitating injury, she is forced to retire to her dead parents' home. There she'll find the secrets of her world and her humanity.
