Place: Midwestern America
Time: November, 2009
With the rate of violent crime rising exponentially all over the world, doomsayers were having a field day. Turns out things were even worse than anyone thought, when an epidemic seemingly similar to Ebola spread like wildfire among the most heavily populated areas. People began to drop like flies, and governments were thrown into a panic trying to find an immunization. No-one, however, realized how sinister the disease was until those who died from it got up and started to walk again. And eat again. Many people had proven to be immune to the original, airborne form of the illness, but no one could survive once they had been bitten by a walking corpse. The military response could be described as 'harsh' at best, 'a slaughter' at worst. Innocent, uninfected civilians were imprisoned in entire cities, left to fend for themselves among the walking dead. Those who managed to find their way out of quarantine areas were immediately gunned down.
Now, it is one week into military control, and we join our small group of survivors as they attempt to stay alive, trapped in a small public school in the center of town.

Any characters that join this thread will start out in the aforementioned school. If we can get this thing off the ground, I'll elaborate a bit more.
