I would like to thank you. You're wondering why, I'm sure you're asking yourself. I'm thanking you for being there, being supportive and seeing success even though I stopped believing In myself. I could sit here and tell you how much I appreciate everything from you, or would you rather me get on with the story? So let's continue and get this story started. The beginning: It was one foggy morning, six came early. It was still kind of dark outside but very foggy, you could barely see anything. It's the time I like the most. The peace, every one was sleeping still. It was nice. You don't get much peace these days, in this world. Walking outside, with the breeze blowing through my hair, that chilly air hitting my neck, making the hairs on my neck stand up. I'm walking down this dark alley getting my daily exercise in. I could see a dumpster, a cat, and a few cardboard boxes. Which was normal for a back alley. It's where all the poor homeless people hang out. I could ask myself why does someone let themselves get that bad, but instead I ask myself, what did the world do so bad that they let themselves get like that. There's a lot of bad in this world but we have to see the good. There is good still, it's just not very common to see anymore. But enough about that. I'm probably starting to bore you. My thoughts sometime get all jumbled and I lose track of what I'm supposed to be talking about. But let's continue. It's the beginning, where everything started. From one sick person, to a poor person on their deathbed. It all includes, the sweats, fever, and painful rashes. You don't think nothing of it till it happens to you, it's not real till it happens to you. Well this is very much real. Thousands to millions getting sick, some not making it out of the sickness. It's a very scary thought for sure. A lot of people dying and the world dying with it. What could have caused this. Was it the government? No one really knows. *MORE COMING SOON*

This story isn’t just about a virus. It’s about the monsters who create them. The ones who decide who lives and who disappears into the void. Abbie is no hero—just a doctor who knows too much. And in this game of secrets, knowing too much is a death sentence. The virus wasn’t about power. It was about playing God. And if they succeeded, entire lineages would vanish as if they’d never existed. Will she escape? Or has she already been infected with something far worse? One thing was certain: If she didn’t get the truth out, no one would know until it was too late.
In a world where the CDC has been dismantled and the U.S. has severed ties with international health organizations, a deadly measles outbreak erupts in the heart of the country. What starts as isolated cases in a rural town quickly spirals into a nationwide catastrophe, with hospitals overwhelmed and government agencies paralyzed by bureaucracy and political infighting. Dr. Byson Mitchell, a former CDC epidemiologist turned independent investigator, knows something isn’t adding up. The virus is spreading too fast, hitting populations that should have been vaccinated. But with no centralized health authority left to coordinate efforts, he must navigate a chaotic landscape of misinformation, public panic, and power-hungry officials more concerned with optics than saving lives. As he digs deeper, Byson uncovers a newly mutated strain of measles—engineered, deliberate, and designed for something far worse than a simple outbreak. Someone, somewhere, wants the world to burn. And without the infrastructure to stop it, they just might succeed. With time running out, Byson must rally what few allies remain—rogue scientists, whistleblowers, and underground medical networks—to expose the truth before the virus reaches its final phase. But in a world where science has been silenced and politics dictates who lives and dies, the real question is: Can the truth survive long enough to stop the outbreak?
