Survival. That's the only thing that matters now in a world gone to ruins. Everything happened so suddenly in the beginning. A virus, thought to be contained, broke out and turned people against each other. All that was left to do was to gather as many survivors as I can in order to make it out alive. I've been scouring for any signs of more survivors, but most of the time all you'll run into is a horde of infects. I've even managed to run into some faces that I thought I'd never see again. I don't know how long I have left or what to expect to happen next. All I know is that I've survived for this long, and I'm not letting anything stop me now. No, not now that I've made it this far. Not because of some Infects.

**COMPLETED** Several years after the world succumbed to a deadly strain of measles that turned those infected into crazed, mindless cannibals, Charlotte wanders the backroads alone, content with surviving day-to-day. That is until she crosses paths with Nate and his daughter, Emmi. Emmi is not and cannot be vaccinated against the disease, so the only way to protect her and give her some kind of life is to reunite her with her estranged mother in a quarantine zone on the other side of the country. Charlotte wants nothing to do with Nate or the girl who looks like her dead sister. She does not want to go through the grief of losing people again if something bad was to happen. And something bad does happen when Emmi is kidnapped, and it is no one's fault but Charlotte's. Through this obligation alone, Charlotte feels like it is her responsibility to get Emmi back, to right her wrong. In helping Nate pursue his kidnapped daughter, Charlotte inadvertently allows herself to feel again, to care for those other than herself. But with the clock ticking, Charlotte's new found family may just end up like her own, dead and destroyed, if Emmi is exposed to the disease that her father tried so hard to protect her from.
