When I awakened I was in a strange room with machines beeping all around me. I couldn't remember what got me there, and no matter how hard i tried, I couldn't even remember how old I was, or my name, There were no mirrors in the room, and what was so strange was that I couldnt even imagine what I should look like. It was like I was new to the world and had no idea of myself or anything around me. It sucked horribly though. It felt like I was drugged, and images swirled around in front of me. Images of faces flashed through my brain, people I didn't know. Thats when I saw my board. The board that every patient has in their room.

In a future where humans are genetically modified -- 'altered' -- at the age of sixteen, the world has been, until now, a safe place. Without changing a person's personality, undergoing the Alteration perfects their appearance, IQ, and even their immunity to diseases. No human passes the age of sixteen without being Altered.
In the blink of an eye, things change.
An ominous message is sent out to all of those below the age of sixteen, providing precise instructions that suggest they flee. Simultaneously, a deadly virus starts to spread all about the world, attacking only the Altered -- every human over the age of sixteen. The virus eats at the modified human brain, and soon the Unaltered begin to realise that the Altered are losing their minds.
Home is no longer safe. Friends and family turn on one another, losing control of their own minds and bodies.
The Unaltered aren't safe. Even if the virus isn't attacking them, the ones with the virus are.
Set on a pristine, futuristic Earth, this is the apocalypse like you've never seen it before.
