In 2020, rising COVID-19 cases popped up everywhere in the world. Quarantine was initiated and time went on as people weren't allowed outside. Schools and lots of jobs went online, and when we were allowed to finally do in-person again, there was one condition given: Wear a mask. Many listened, some had questions, some didn't do so. That was what happened in the United States. The vaccine was released after certification, but some still had questions or didn't believe it. Misinformation was spread, and later on, radical groups showed up. When the military intervened with the first radical pop-ups, they suppressed them successfully. Leaders would be arrested and tried. Until one group came up, taking over an entire city after a fierce firefight. From that day forward, the attacks were something that anyone could put down that easy. The AntiViral League, a radical terrorist group intent on having the full extermination of COVID and the need for masks and the vaccine. Those days forward marked a new war within the country itself, tearing it's own people apart from each other. This is the story of the country's fate, witnessed by a 26-year old woman, living in an area in Los Angeles, currently not under radical control.
