One of four short stories about the crew of the Shepherd in different phases of life.  These are based on a SciFi story that I have been thinking about for a while, bear with the slow pace for uploads please.

What if everyone was wrong? What if after twenty thousand years of human evolution, we had no further to go?  Climax at 2020.  What if we were all alone? No life in the universe anywhere else.  How long would it take for the human race to colonize the universe?  My guess is another twenty thousand years, and still no lasers, no warp drives, no speed of light, no cryogenic freeze, only human perseverance and ingenuity, just like the wild west.

The story of the ship "The Shepherd" (A for hire escort destroyer) takes place in this time.  It is 202020. This is about the crew of that ship and the one job that changed the fate of human-kind.

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.
