Prolologue

The two girls were so desperate to make it home, they didn't notice a sliver of the AI they had just tried to destroy was still alive. Even worse, it was still with them. Still alove, and heading to the Earth that had no idea what was coming her way.

Humanity had reached its peak. Everything you could think of and more. Popoulation was booming, starvation had all but died out, poverty was a thing of the past, and we were this close to figuring out how to colonize space.

At least we could have if they had not came. Sarah Brooks and Ava Turing. The Immortals. They were so deternined to come home, they ended up dooming the home they wanted so badly to return to.

When the returned from their deep space mission, they brought an organism with them. They called it Organism 119. Those who survived the initial onslaught called it LifeSpring, for it was the spring of eternal life.

But no one knew about the monstrosity that lived below us. And the hope that came from it. Her name was Chell, and she was going to save us all.

Chapter I

Europan Ground Base: The women tore at the AI. The AI did nothing, knowing it deserved it. But one of the women, Ava, paused in her tearing- she remembered the friendship she thought she had. Little did she know, her pause would fuel everything. Because of her pause, the AI would still live.

When the two women, Ava and Sarah, left Europa, the AI was able to attach itself on the pod with them.

Their trip was long, but it was worth it, to them anyways. When they reqched Mars, the International Soace Agency, the ISA realized their AI had not done its job. That the virus living in the women would bring the apocalypse.

The people of earth prepared themselves. Using what they had seen in movies, and the rest of their knowledge. But would it be enough?

It wasn't.

The pod touched down. The airlock hissed, and the women stepped out. The organism in their bodies rushed out, infecting and contaminating. Travel was banned. That did nothing. The organism is an extremophile, it could survive the harshest depths of soace, what would stop it? Land borders? The ocean? Nothing would. Nothing on Earth could

Those on death row, got infected before their execution. The switch was pulled- and they didn't die. The stereotypical smirk. Those on death row, the one's with the virus, figured out that if you injured someone enough. To the point where the organism couldn't heal you. Take a stab wound. One will leave you injured, but not fatally injured. But, you keep on getting stabbed. Constant agony, you wish you could just die. But no, the organism tries to keep you alize, your agony is more prolonged, and you just keep getting stabbed.

Society fell soon after that. First it was local governments, the people had prepared, this'll only last a couple days.

But then, the national governments. And finally, everything just fell.

But Ava and Sarah. Their pod landed in Upper Michigan. Little did they know, a beast was biding its time underneath them.

In a wheat field, not far from the original landing site... a woman stepped out of a broken down shed. She had been through many horrible things, she survived everything that was thrown at her. But she had no idea how the world she was stepping in had changed, when the monster let her go, she had no idea what she was getting into. "You would have wished you stayed down here." Her name was Chell, and Earth had changed a lot since she was last on the surface...

An: Technically, this whole chapter is a prologue, but the way I wrote it probably complicated it, but it made sense to me.
