The apocalypse began on a beautiful spring afternoon deep in the Amazon in a vast unexplored region of Vale Do Javari, Brazil that bordered Peru. It did not come heralding in with the trumpets and vengeance of an avenging angel. At first, it moved slowly, unsteadily like a crawling infant, then came the confident strides of a tracker, and finally the amazing and fearsome flight of a predator. Its beginning was so innocuous and innocent that news stations around the world announced it as a major historical occasion worthy of celebration until an antibotic-resistant plague wiped out over half of the world's population.
Shortages of basic necessities spawned bands of militants seeking dominion over others. Neighboring communities went to war with each other. Small pockets of civilians fortified their communities for a relatively safe place to begin anew. The lucky ones were left in peace; Mayhem, Oklahoma was not one of the lucky ones.

ALPHA WAVE
When my parents kicked the bucket, I thought that was the universe's way of saying "screw you" to me. But little did I know, life had an even bigger "screw you" in store. Then one sunny summer day out of nowhere, the Infected appeared. And man, were they ugly. Feral, bloodthirsty, savage beasts that looked like they'd been hit with the ugly stick- no scratch that- the ugly tree one too many times. But fear not, for Phoenix Corp arrived on the scene, wielding their science skills like superheroes. They cooked up a cure that saved the day, rescued us from the Infected menace. Or so we thought.... Suddenly, everything I knew was turned on its head when Phoenix agents showed up at my door at midnight and demanded access. I never thought I'd find myself allied with the Infected, the very creatures I saw as my mortal enemy. It's like friends became foes and foes became friends, and I'm left questioning everything I ever believed. But hey, at least I've got a front-row seat to the apocalypse. It's a wild ride, and I'm strapped in for the long haul. Who knows what craziness is yet to come? Oh, did I mention the infected had mouthwatering abs?

The only thing left was a rugged world where you fought to survive another day without getting eaten by the dead or killed by the living. You had witnessed how cruel the people had turned so you chose to remain alone, not trusting another human fellow. But everyday left you more unclear on what you continued to live for, survive for.
