The year was 2015. The world had descended into another World War, although it had ended just as quickly as it had started. The governments of the world had dove into chemical warfare, for this was no longer a fair fight. Nobody knows who dropped the virus, "Virus X" as others called it, or when it had started, but all the survivors remember now is it swept over the world in the blink of an eye. What was once just another world war was now possibly the end of civilization as we know it.
Naturally, survivors had fled to areas that were once less populated. The north, the backwoods of the south, even west beyond the Rocky Mountains. There survivors began to find peace. The woods provided plenty of food, while the colder temperatures of Oregon and Washington made day's slightly more bearable. It was sort of a refuge for those who wished to survive easy, if it was possible at all.
As 2 years passed people began to think they are safe, but problems emerged. Some took to cannibalism saying the animals they hunted could become infected too. This was never proven to be true, but that didn't stop the rumor from spreading like wildfire. Some survivors began to ban together, create groups and families in broken down cities, finding comfort in numbers. Some roam alone.

To say she was upset when she left Aria would be and understatement, she felt terrible, but she couldn't stay in that town anymore. Not with her mother and father being the way they were. Still she missed her home town, but all that's in the past now and she needs to look forward. The next chapter in her life is making it to Norfolk, Virginia where boats are leaving to take others to a safe location. Charlotte can only hope that it is true and not some rumor that's being spread around by lowlifes to lure people into a trap.
Heaving a sigh she looked around, currently standing in the small food section of what was a Rural King. Not really much left. Holding her bag she looked at the canned foods, checking expiration dates and throwing them in her bag. She needed to stalk up for winter or she would have no food. Yes, she can just hunt but, by winter all animals will ether be hiding or in hibernation. Not much to hunt for then, maybe a squirrel or rabbit but, that's it.
"Shit," she swore as a can fell to the ground, dropping her bag she pulled out her bow looking around for infected to come out. Hopefully she was alone.
