A deadly disease, called the Deviant Plague, spread throughout the world. Cities like New York, Tokyo and Delhi were hit the worst. Hospitals began to fill with fevered, boil covered victims. A quarantine was ordered immediately, but the virus spread quickly to new hosts through contact with bodily fluids. Large cities were bombed in an attempt to keep the fallout to a minimum, but two thirds of the population still perished. Those who survived the plague were left on the surface to fend for themselves while being hunted for a cure by the non-infected who live in underground facilities. For a while the infected were powerless to fight back, but some quickly discovered the plague left them with a gift, superpowers.

Sanctuary
Sanctuary. That was what the quarantine dome was supposed to be, a place of refuge from the N-Gel and the deadly Neoplague they unleashed on the world. But we aren't safe here. Senna is uprooted from her rural life in the outer dome when her mother agrees to marry the President of Sanctuary. It was supposed to be a Cinderella story, but Senna can't stand the health and status obsessed city. Her only escape comes from repairing an antique piece of wireless tech, an endeavor that is seemingly hopeless due to the interference that reduced such tech useless after the invasion. Senna believes that if she can get the device to work, she can use it to contact the life she left behind. However, it isn't her old life she reaches when she gets the device to power on. Instead she catches the SOS of a little girl who claims to be held captive in the toxic world outside of the dome. The girl offers a reward for her rescue-the cure for the plague that forced humanity into quarantine and took Senna's father from her.
