Outbreak - Week 1

Presidents, premieres, prime ministers, entire governments disappeared instantly, like a fragile house of cards in a hurricane. Some hid deep underground or holed up in fortified strongholds, but most were swallowed up by the dead, never to be heard from again.

Created in a biosafety level 4 lab in Wuhan, China, a bioweapon meant to sicken and quickly kill an enemy population—leaving intact infrastructure, resources, and vast swaths of fertile farmland—instead causes the infected to die and return as mindless, flesh-eating zombies.

When the bioweapon escapes the BSL-4 lab and all efforts to contain its rapid spread within Hubei province fail, the Chinese Communist Party leadership dispatch agents to the United States with one mission: to level the playing field by seeding an unsuspecting American population with what will eventually be known worldwide as the Omega virus.

That last Saturday in July 2011 was the end of “normal” for every survivor of the catastrophe. Now, after scientists’ many failed attempts to develop an answer to Omega, a human intelligence asset (HUMINT) long thought dead reaches out from within the dying communist country.

Armed with information on the whereabouts of detailed notes transcribed during Omega’s gain-of-function trials, Cade and his Pale Riders Team are tasked with retrieving the missing data that may lead to the perfection of an antiserum that could be humanity’s salvation.

While Cade is away, his daughter, Raven, begins her journey down the difficult path to becoming the youngest member of an army whose goal is to rid New America of the zombie scourge.

Will Operation White Horse succeed? Or will Cade and his Pale Riders return home to New District emptyhanded?

Come along and find out who has what it takes to Survive the Zombie Apocalypse.
