We were the worst that the universe had to offer. Humanity. Constantly at war with itself, over anything and everything. Resources, land, politics; it was all the same. We prided ourselves on the weapons we created. Yet, it was these weapons that we used against each other that ultimately destroyed our planet.

With war came devastating and irreversible effects on the planet and the people who inhabited it. Famine and disease pillaged and destroyed what was left. The aftermath left Earth nearly uninhabitable. Most of the land turned infertile and radioactive, causing some to resort to other means of sustenance. Cannibalism. Those that resorted to such lengths often were due to the effects of monstrous mutations. The wars on ourselves soon turned to wars on the mutated creatures that ravaged the land in search of human flesh.

War wasn't the only thing that killed our planet. Overpopulation suffocated all resources that the Earth had to offer, which only continued to lead to our downfall. As our population grew, so did the monsters that hunted us. As time passed, humanity began to adapt and slowly band together to save what was left of the planet. However, it was too late, humanity was fighting a losing war, and they knew it. 

"I come from a dying world where only abominations roam and feed off of what's left."

The Virus Within: The Unranked (Book 4)

50 parts Complete

Season 4 of The Virus Within Trinity is familiar with zombies, being one herself, but when strange zombies start appearing, she realizes that the world she knew might be changing yet again. When a dangerous set of scientific notes are discovered, Trinity and her friends don't realize anything is wrong until a frantic radio call comes in. Unaware of the notes, they race to the south and struggle to determine where the strange zombies came from. The zombies are unlike any ranks previously seen, and they aren't as predictable. Some have new tricks hidden up sleeves, forcing any Stronghold they encounter to quickly adapt to the new challenge or risk being overrun. Secrets never remain hidden, and zombie apocalypses never make life easy.
