The New Dawn: Awakening

On the morning of her first day of 9th grade, Sadie wakes up to a world that seems eerily different from the day before. After a night of celebration for her dad's 34th birthday, she is met with a barrage of frantic messages from her father urging her to stay indoors and avoid looking outside. Confused and worried, Sadie finds herself trapped in her home, with the streets outside strangely silent and empty.

As she turns on the TV to seek answers, she discovers a chilling broadcast from the Vaccine and Research Development Network (VRDN). The announcement reveals a dangerous new parasite that turns its hosts into aggressive, spreading threats. With the city in quarantine, the parasite's spread must be contained, and the public is advised to stay indoors and avoid contact with anyone who seems unwell.

As Sadie struggles to grasp the gravity of the situation, she must navigate the new reality of a world on the brink of chaos. With her father's warnings echoing in her mind and her future uncertain, Sadie faces the challenge of understanding her place in this changing world. "The New Dawn" follows Sadie's journey through fear, resilience, and discovery as she confronts the threats lurking beyond her blinds and the hidden truths of her new world.
