Introduction
The Sickness began in 2020. It all started when a mad scientist breeded a nearly unstoppable virus in his lab, then one day forgot to wear gloves as he worked with it. He took the bus home, and developed a cough, fever, and intense migraine the next day. He took the day off hoping to get better, but each day he got worse until he died two weeks later. He had spread it to everyone on the bus, and soon it had spread to everyone in his town. The virus continued spreading until it was worldwide. People were dying faster than they were being born. Scientists everywhere desperately tried discovering a cure, a vaccine, anything. All in vain. Earth's population was down to the millions. It wasn't until 2024 that scientists in America discovered a cure. A vaccine was never found. By that time the world was in shambles. No government, laws, anything. Complete chaos. The scientist took the cure and stached it away, keeping it for his family and friends, and selling it to rich upper class people for a profit. The remaining doses are located in a heavily guarded compound. The remaining people, people who had once been middle class, lived in clusters around the country. Clusters, on the rare occasion they come in contact with each other, are very hostile toward one another, and usually end up in fights. If a person is found roaming alone by another cluster, they will most likely be killed.
Our Mission
The cluster we all live in is a group made of people ages 17 to 23. Our cluster isn't content sitting around waiting until we all get the sickness and die. Our mission is to protect ourselves from other clusters, and find and get The Cure before anyone from our cluster dies of The Sickness. Can you save yourselves? Or will you be too late...
