The year is 2300, in dystopian Paris. Worldwide, a pill was given to all born children that would effect the DNA of the child, making them more peaceful. There was an issue with the DNA, though. Two-three generations down, this caused severe mental illnesses to all who have taken the pill. There was a group called the ERF at the creation date of the pill. Their goal was to evade the pill, so these people did not have their children take it. Eventually, this group grew and they needed to prevent mass destruction and world wars so they needed a way to 'restart' the world, so they planted bombs throughout the world to stop the mass destruction. The members of the ERF seek safety underground while the world is being rebuilt by drones. Rachel Charron knows that something in the bombs didn't work, and she knows that something needs to be changed. ⓒⓞⓟⓨⓡⓘⓖⓗⓣ wiredpencil do not reproduce

*THE UNEDITED VERSION* Beware of typos, errors, and general mistakes. This is a very, very rough draft. "I live in a place called Compound 4. We are one of ten different compounds placed at strategic locations around the US. It's been thirteen years since the virus overtook humanity, turning about ninety percent of us into zombies. I'm not sure how it started exactly; that's classified information. I do know that in order to save what was left of the human race, the president at the time took a bunch of really smart people and kids and relocated them into new 'protected' cities. My father was one of those really smart people. I was only five at the time, but I knew what was happening." Within the walls of the compound, Jay makes stupid mistakes, mistakes even she doesn't understand, putting everyone inside at risk. All because she can't shoot someone. All because she misses the wind in her hair, the flowers on the hillsides, the sound of crickets at night. All because she's different, the only person untouchable by the Virus. When the mistakes begin to duplicate, and a girl shows up who knows her name, everything begins to change in Compound 4. Highest rank in Science Fiction: #9
