the held and taken - rules - ability/powers played bys - application "In the struggle for survival, the fittest win out at the expense of their rivals because they succeed in adapting themselves best to their environment." - Charles Darwin. January, 2006. A virus spread quickly through the small town of Darston, Texas. It affected the body's immune and nervous system, killing in a matter of days. No one knew what it was or how it got there but they needed help and they needed it now. The Government quickly took part and assisted the town in any way they could, and also made sure the disease didn't spread to the nearby towns by placing a quarantine that lasted two years. Military forces took over the town and no one walked in or out without their permission. In those two years, many rumors floaed around the town. Some said that virus was a military weapon that the US Government tested on the town; others said that it was the beginning of the plague of the XXI Century; and other said it was simply the way nature worked. But whatever it was, it killed more than half of the population. Today, it's been two months since the quarantine is over and people are slowly taking up their lives again. Families can go visit their relatives, the children can hope again that this year their parents will take them to Disneyland and the newlyweds can finally have their honeymoon in Hawaii. Everything's back to normal... or is it? A group of people that survived the virus start feeling strange and weird things happen around them. A girl dreams of the future, a basketball player could've sworn he literally flew when he jumped for a slam dunk, things starts to catch on fire for no reason near a girl, people saw a boy being in three places at the same time,... Is it all just their imagination or is something else going on? Could they really have evolved, becoming superhumans? No one's sure, but they need to be careful. Big Brother's still watching. |
