They said that the end of the world would be long and painful, with plenty of signs and disaster. Well, there were none. Everything was gone in less than a second.

A sudden unknown electromagnetic wave swept the Earth, mutating ninety percent of humanity into fast and strong zombies. Dr William Toh should have been one of them, except he retained his mental capacity and gained a unique physiology instead. 

And he was not alone.

The dangers of this new world lurk in every corner as he embarks on his journey to reverse the mutation wave. Will he succeed? Or will he succumb to the deadly politics and war that could potentially wipe out what's left of humanity instead?

After a few close calls, Elizabeth joined ranks with Sergeant Luke Falls who lead her to a military base. Elizabeth tried her best to navigate the unknown in her post-apocalyptic reality, fighting off infected while trying to treat them as patients. In conjunction with Luke and her new comrades, she discovered some particularly troubling information of the etiology of the disease and must make crucial decisions with the lives of those she cares for most hanging in the balance. --- "This is a bad idea," he warned as I started down the hall. "You know, usually I'm the one saying that," I said with a smirk. "If your crazy-ass ideas are the voice of reason, I can't believe you and your friends have lasted this long." He shook his head. "Someone needs to talk some sense into you guys." "I don't need sense. Just luck." The threshold to the lobby loomed ahead. With one last look over my shoulder, I blew a kiss in his direction. "Wish it for me."
