Two possibilities exist.. Either we are alone in the universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.-Arthur C. Clarke 
All humanity was gone. Nothing was left of the human race. They had all become half dead versions of who they used to be. The crazies were carnivorous creatures that fed off human flesh. Scientists couldn't find a cure for the virus that had caused the disease that spread through the country and then slowly found its way across the world. No one was left. Or so she thought.
Hope, was a 20 year old girl from Virginia. She had moved to Kansas when she was 20 with her fiance in hopes to start a family with her current pregnancy. When the Virus hit it took everyone she loved and held close to her. Somehow, no matter what happened, she couldn't get infected. It was like her blood was immune to the virus. She figured that since she had survived she could find the cure. She could save these people. Slowly she realizes she can't work alone and meets friends along the way.
