NTX-1 Outbreak

By Caymen Bumgardner

Even after the crash, the city remains attentive.

When NTX-1 went out of control, Clara helped build it. The escape of NTX-1 was not just a violent act, but a transformation rewired. The infected seem to have a very specific goal now; they are attracted to sound, light, and one another. They are not monsters. They are humans who have lost control.

Clara has managed to stay alive by running. It is not going to mend what she broke.

With a few others, she is trying to get through fog, covered streets and buildings that have been stripped of their usable parts. Clara is carrying some stolen research and samples that could be instrumental in interrupting the infections signal. Not a cure. Not yet. Just a way to slow down the fire in the brain and gain some time that can only be measured in minutes and blood.

Every move closer to the truth is a move away from safety. The city sees the work. The infected hear it.

This is a survival story that becomes a reckoning about the guilt that keeps coming up, the science that doesn't forgive if you take shortcuts, and the decision to stop pretending that you haven't caused any damage, even if it can still affect you.

Does Clara and her team have what it takes to find the cure?
