Description
The day the water turned against humanity began like any other. The sun rose over the city of Fort Morrow, casting a golden light over the skyline. People went about their morning routines—making coffee, brushing their teeth, watering their plants—completely unaware that the very liquid they relied on for life had become their greatest enemy. In a nondescript laboratory on the outskirts of the city, Dr. Julian Harris stared at the data on his screen, his heart pounding in his chest. What he was seeing didn’t make sense—it defied everything he knew about chemistry, biology, and the natural world. But the numbers didn’t lie. The water samples he had been analyzing were contaminated with something far more dangerous than any known toxin. It was a virus, one that had been engineered with a singular, terrifying purpose: to turn those who ingested it into something less than human. It worked quickly, infecting the brain and nervous system, stripping away reason and conscience, leaving only the primal urge to attack and consume. A biological weapon, delivered through the most innocuous of means. Dr. Harris’s hands trembled as he picked up the phone, dialling the emergency line. He knew he had to alert the authorities, to warn them before it was too late. But even as he waited for the call to connect, he felt a cold certainty settle over him. It was already too late. Across the city, people were beginning to notice something was wrong. The first symptoms were subtle—a headache, a fever, a sense of unease. But soon, the sickness progressed rapidly, and the streets of Fort Morrow descended into chaos. People staggered out of their homes, eyes glazed and bodies twitching, their movements jerky and unnatural. Screams echoed through the air as neighbors turned on each other, clawing and biting with a mindless fury. By the time the military arrived to quarantine the city, it was a lost cause. Fort Morrow was a war zone, overrun by the infected, who were now little more than flesh-hungry zombies. But the infection wasn’t contained. Reports began to flood in from towns and cities across the country—similar outbreaks, spreading like wildfire. Panic swept through the nation as the true scope of the disaster became clear. The water supply, the lifeblood of civilization, had been poisoned on an unimaginable scale. In the chaos, as governments collapsed and the world was plunged into darkness, a small group of survivors banded together, determined to find the source of the contamination and stop it before it wiped out the last remnants of humanity. Among them was Sarah—a firefighter haunted by her past, who knew all too well the horrors of what could happen when science was twisted for evil. Together with her ragtag team, she embarked on a journey through a dying world, racing against time to find a cure for the nightmare that had been unleashed. But as they would soon discover, the enemy was not just the infected. A shadowy organization was behind the outbreak, and they would stop at nothing to see their plan through to the bitter end. The fight for survival had begun. And the water was only the beginning.
