Opening Theme
Nobody saw it coming.
Not by a mile.
It was totally unpredictable. It caught everyone flat footed, leaving them dumbfounded and mentally lost.
Not just New York, nor the United States, but all of mankind.
Something that had always been believed to be impossible was now reality itself.
Something that was considered to be fun filled fiction was now non-fiction.
Something that was a thing of children and teenagers bad dreams was now a living, breathing nightmare.
This nightmare is the unnervingly advanced and highly evolved case of Bovine Spongiform, or "Mad Cow Disease", which has altered itself into a more durable and more sustainable strain of the human VCJD disease, which derives from Mad Cow Disease.
This new and more advanced breed of VCJD is now plaguing all of New York City, transforming all of those that are infected into mindless, monstrous anominations.
The infected, whom are being referred to as "Ragers", due to their wild, primal, and psychotically aggressive behavior are swarming throughout the city, swamping the streets and storming every building, mercilessly attacking and murdering every living thing they see, human and animal alike.
Many eye witness accounts and surveillance evidence have indicated that in many cases, the victims bodies are then feasted on, wether it be human or animal.
The national guard have been brought in alongside the police force, but to great dismay, they cannot seem to quell the outbreak, as entire barricades and divisions are being overrun and the defendants slaughtered by these virus turned creatures.
In Washington, President Thomas Stewart has declared a state of emergency, putting all of New York State on lockdown and commanding the military and navy to set up a complete and secure land and sea perimeter around the entirety of New York State itself.
The National Guard and the Navy have since then moved into place, completely sealing off entry and exit from the state and effectively quarantining it.Having been ordered to simply keep the area constricted and nothing further, the military have made no further efforts to move into the city or across the surrounding area.They are simply there to keep any infected from getting out and any civilians from outside from heading into the hotspot.
While the politicians in Washington bicker and debate on how to handle the situation and the infected, the people of New York find themselves in a "do or die" situation.
They must gather their wits and strength alike if they are to avoid death or infection.
Not to mention the varieties of danger aside from the Ragers.
Gangs, looters, finding food, supplies, and shelter, it won't be easy or safe.
Survival of the fittest.
