Mid-2021, the United States are barren, most of civilization has been wiped out. The government had gone too far in the late year of 2020. The riots had gone too far. The government had been at a loss and decided to build machines that could finally stop the people and their destruction.

Buildings, towns, families, had all been destroyed over the course of June and July. By August, many towns had been decimated by their cruel intentions.

Major cities, Seattle, Washington D.C, New York, Dallas, Denver, have fallen and no longer exist. That's when the Government came in. They built massive guns, large bodies of metal to control the rampant people.

The rest of the world has broken into war. Europe, Russia, and China are fighting over their economies and the poor countries in between are caught in the crossfire. Australia had burned, following the riots of June and July. South America died out as well, from starvation and dehydration. 

Even if the majority of the population has dropped from nearly eight billion (8,000,000,000) to barely one million, people are still living, trying to rebuilding what they once had. 

Machines still wander, killing whomever they run into. A boy and his dog run into one of these small societies. He's immediately hated by everyone in the society, but one of leaders take a chance on the boy, seeing as he's been surviving for the past ten months by himself and his dog.

But when one of the members does the unthinkable, the boy loses trust in the whole group, even his newfound lover.

The Altered. by _fiinch_
81 parts Complete Mature
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.)
