Plague- Prologue

Day 4- September 29, 2023.

Another day. Just another day trapped inside Degrassi High School. As much as the students dreaded being in such a boring place, they were grateful to still be alive, to still be healthy. It was their sanctuary. What they now called their home

It was 5 days ago when it happened, that one day changed the whole world. Leaving the human race completely startled, shocked, and horrified. Most took action immediately; others already knew they didn't have a chance, not a single chance to survive. They were aware of what was going on but instead spent the last few days, maybe hours, with their loved ones instead of fleeing to a safe place that didn't exist.

Those who did flee were either never heard of again or became one of the infected. The virus spread, spread and spread. No one knows where it started from; no one knows how it started. All they knew was someone, from somewhere, carried this unknown disease into the world and destroyed it.

It made you go mad. Made you crave to sink your teeth into the sweet taste of human flesh. A single bite into a healthy person will transform them into one of the infected in a matter of seconds. Putting the body in an agonizing pain while you let out a shrieking howl; as blood trails out the mouth and nose. The once pure eyes turned into complete white orbs. Instead of smooth, living flesh, it turned into a gray, dead flesh.

Those who were infected didn't have such a stable ability to walk, but their sense of hearing was strong enough to hear from far distances.

The town of Toronto was one of the many that started to evacuate. In the process, an infected woman limped into traffic and attacked civilians. She'd dig her teeth into their necks and tear off a chunk of meat. While she feasted on it, the once healthy human transformed into her kind and attacked others.

The students of Degrassi were quickly brought back into the school, not being allowed to go out no matter how much they wished to see their family one more time. It was the safety of the children the adults cared of more, more than themselves. They blocked all doors and windows to keep out any of the infected. On that day, the once safe town was a danger zone for any healthy human.

The population of healthy people is around 2,600, those only being the ones in the school. Most students wept for hours, not wanting to know what happened to their family but at the same time having an urge to know if they survived or not. Yet they all knew they all turned into one of them.

Others curled up in a corner, looking somewhat mental, rocking back and forth, and tried to escape what had happened. They didn't want to believe it, they wanted to believe it would soon be cured, that everything would go back to normal. Little did they know, practically the whole world was now infected and the numbers of survivors were slight.

At night was the most terrifying. The students would huddle up in a group as they tried to get some sleep but knew it was impossible, for the infected banged on the doors and windows. Most came out at night because they were too sensitive to light, but others were able to withstand it and wandered around during the day.

Just another day but not a normal day. 5 days since the incident, 5 days since the world had completely changed. Unfortunately, 5 days wasn't enough to let the students get used to it. And no matter what number of days, no matter how long it is until the world turns safe once again, everything, including them, has changed forever.

Aha, Well there it is for now. I wouldn't mind a couple reviews :)
