Hunted. Penniless. Stranded in a city emptied by quarantine. And liable to burst into flame. Priya isn't sure what to fear most - herself, the deadly virus sweeping the world, or the shadowy scientists who imprisoned and changed her into something fiery. All she wants to do is ride out the stay-at-home order, and go back to normal life. After all, she's sure she can control her tendency to erupt into actual fire. Well, almost sure. Like... 75% sure. But then a man approaches her who claims to know all about her new power - and that she is not alone. There are others like her, uniquely gifted and uniquely able to fight back against the pandemic. A man who can't die. A woman whose mere presence calms fear. A guy who can see the virus. A time traveler who has seen this future and knows how to prevent something worse. Invited to join the strangest team of superheroes ever, Priya has to decide if it's worth the risk to trust anyone - Especially when her captors and creators are still in pursuit, and something far worse than anyone has imagined takes shape. A rollicking superhero adventure story with a mismatched and dysfunctional team. A spy story with dangerous high stakes and quirky romance. A post-apocalyptic tale set in the dark landscape of TODAY. "Team PANDEMIC" is an ongoing web series, with new chapters daily(ish). -- Note: I will avoid naming the (erm) health crisis in question, simply because I don't want to trigger automatic blocking. Please enjoy. Please stop reading if it's making you freak out. And please throw comments and suggestions at me! I'd love to incorporate some of your ideas :D

guys please don't read this anymore lmao i write totally differently now💋 _________________ 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. (Rated mature for graphic depictions of violence and mild language.)
