Hey everyone. Little thrown by the title? I'll explain.
I was watching the newest resident evil(no comment) awhile back, and I started thinking about putting the characters of Morganville Vampires into it. So basically thats what I'm doing. The plot won't be the same as R.E. but will be similar, along the lines of how some of the characters meet but most will be my own ideas. Also you don't have to of seen Resident Evil to understand this because it don't include any of the main ideas in R.E. or the characters.
Oh, before I start I'm letting you know the changes that have been made.
1.) Claire and Eve don't know Shane, Michael and the rest because they haven't met in my story.
2.) Claire is 17, Shane, Michael and Eve are 18.
3.) There are NO vampires. Just roll with it.
Most of it will be explained in later chapters, so if you don't understand something hang on in there, or Personal Message me:)
DISCLAIMER: Rachel Caine owns the characters of Morganville Vampires
Chapter 1
CLAIRE'S POV:
1 year, 3 months, 2 weeks, 6 days, 4 hours and 15 minutes since the news of the virus was broadcasted. Not just any virus like coughing and sneezing, one that would make you stay in bed for a few days. No. This was like nothing humanity had ever seen before. This... disease, was like something unleashed from hell.
It's not passed through the air. It's passed by biting, an example of this being rabies. Ripping into the flesh and spreading the disease. I guess I should explain more. Once the disease is in your system it spreads like wildfire. Your cells stop, as if you were dead. When the virus reaches your brain it... turns it off basically. Your memories, feelings, knowledge, experience all just... disappears... gone. After awhile your brain restarts like a computer. However this time all the things you had before don't come back. Speech, processing... nothing. Your not yourself anymore, no longer human. Only two things happen. You have a need for something- Flesh. Secondly you can move, slowly at first, but when the need for flesh becomes greater, your speed increases. They will do anything to get the flesh even if they don't need it, or have just had some. They never stop eating.
Their not alive, and they don't look alive either. Their dead. Their organs don't work, blood doesn't move around their bodies and their don't breathe. When you die, you rot. Their walking corpses.
The virus started in the USA, they were trying to come up with a cure for cancer. Instead somehow the virus began. It was passed on within weeks throughout the USA, and then to the rest of the world. A few months and the world was infected. Not the entire world, I have to keep reminding myself. Their are survivors everywhere, tons of them. Not as many as their are dead, but a fair amount considering what has happened. You just have to find the right places to look.
I'm a survivor, and looking for more. There was more in my group but we got seperated, now it's just me. I'm trying to get to Arcadia. For months there has been broadcasts on the emergency signal from a place called Arcadia, which in the broadcast they say that it is safe there, that there's food and it's infection free.
It could be a trap. It might of been safe and now it's not. I don't know. I do, however, know that I'm alone and don't have anything to loose. My family and friends are all dead. So even though I have no idea where Arcadia is, I'm going to make it there, or die trying. Which most likely will be the latter.
Was that okay? Sorry it's so short, it was kind of like a prolog.
My other chapters will be longer and the story will properly start.
R&R Please, reviews will make me update quicker;)
