System Of The Undead

Many years ago, a meteorite crashed into earth in New York city and this was the beginning of mankind's unprecedented evolution. The year was 2030 and humanity had reached a stage that would not have been possible otherwise without this external factor but they weren't satisfied. In the selfish attempt for humanity to once again force their evolution, the search for immortality began. A man named Dr. Schneider was the man responsible for this feat and he did achieve his goal but like the saying goes, be careful for what you wish for because that immortality came in the form of something perverse and twisted to nature. It came in the form of zombies. The world was in shambles or was it? Jason, a 21 year-old shut in, he was at the bottom of the food ladder due to his life choices, disowned and alone, he was willing to waste the left his life gaming but even with this dedication, he wasn't that great a gamer. But fate had something in store and that was in the form of a 'virus' transmitted through the gaming headset he had on and this would change Jason's life for either for better or for worse.

The Uncertain Fate Of Humanity

Back at the community, Mariam had taken the helm and was on paper the perfect ruler for the community as her ideals were slowly taking shape even though it wasn't much of a democracy, people rarely complained because it had a sense of the old world.

There was food and even a currency to encourage them to work harder but this also meant that theft was one of the few things that remained.

The sad truth was not everyone was useful, not everyone could be assigned a task that gave them a decent amount of income.

So the lower class were beginning to subtly revolt or rather, someone from the lower class.

It was strange that such a problem remained in the first place but that was one of those things that one couldn't escape regardless of the state of the world.

This rise in theft made the people who did meagre jobs be seen as a liability because one bad egg, unfortunately, ruined the batch.
