Survival is more than air and water when you're being hunted by the undead. Worst yet, when you caused it. 
    
    Willow ascends into what she believes is an answer to prayer, leaving the harsh realities of the world below behind her. But when she arrives onboard Proc 1, nothing is as it seems. She's quickly indoctrinated into the system by her mysterious rescuers, only to learn that she's been promoted to Lead Physicist in the NAMOS program-BioTic Corp's Top Secret protocol on genetic decomposition and mutations. 
    
    The name on file is not her own, but someone else's. Cloaking herself in this new identity, she marvels at the vastness and complexities of the first floating civilization. Her curiosity is cut short as her advanced training in molecular cloning begins. This only drives the knot deeper into the pit of her stomach. It's only a matter of time before she's discovered as an imposter.
    
    The further she digs, the harder it is to decipher the truth from lies. SIND is not what everyone believed it to be. The new world government wasn't trying to save mankind; it was attempting to control it by curing death. 
    
    There's just one problem; no one survived the treatments, until her. With a potential cure pulsing through her veins, will Willow be able to stop the impending apocalypse before she's turned into SIND's next science experiment?

*THE UNEDITED VERSION* Beware of typos, errors, and general mistakes. This is a very, very rough draft. "I live in a place called Compound 4. We are one of ten different compounds placed at strategic locations around the US. It's been thirteen years since the virus overtook humanity, turning about ninety percent of us into zombies. I'm not sure how it started exactly; that's classified information. I do know that in order to save what was left of the human race, the president at the time took a bunch of really smart people and kids and relocated them into new 'protected' cities. My father was one of those really smart people. I was only five at the time, but I knew what was happening." Within the walls of the compound, Jay makes stupid mistakes, mistakes even she doesn't understand, putting everyone inside at risk. All because she can't shoot someone. All because she misses the wind in her hair, the flowers on the hillsides, the sound of crickets at night. All because she's different, the only person untouchable by the Virus. When the mistakes begin to duplicate, and a girl shows up who knows her name, everything begins to change in Compound 4. Highest rank in Science Fiction: #9

He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in.

It's been seven months since the pandemic hit with this virus and the world has been ravaged and left to ruins. Society has crumbled to nothing and more than three fourths of the population have been infected with the mysterious virus that took the world by storm.
