Overview Earth's Survivors America the Dead series takes an
apocalyptic look at a world in ruins. The governments are gone. The
police, the military. The United States is no more. The dead are
rising. Becoming smarter, learning from their mistakes. Our Group
of survivors take a stand in a suburb of New York City called Old
Town. Those that make it eventually find their way out of the city
looking for a place to start over again. A place where they can
began to put their lives in order once more... We were down along
the river checking over some of the old buildings that perched on
the cliffs high above the water. Summer was coming on full and we
knew we had to get moving, get out of this dead city. We had half
the country to cross and find a place before winter came back
around again. I was thinking back to March. Just two months ago but
the world was still the world. And for the next little while there,
we didn't even know about the dead. Dead was still dead. When you
closed your eyes for the long eternal sleep you didn't wake up a
short minute later as something else. No. We were ignorant up until
a few weeks ago when they decided to come after us. Ignorant.
Stupid. Didn't know a thing: Have a clue. We didn't know what the
blue stuff the government planes sprayed us with right after
everything went to hell was. And I am still not convinced I know
all there is to know, but I suspect things. I have been told
things. I met a guy a few weeks back that said he worked at the
Army base. He knew what it was. What I do know was it was designed
to strengthen us. Keep us alive a little longer. Make us stronger
somehow. Some scientist's idea. I suppose it was meant as a help
for us. A help. The world slowed down, fell apart, everything
stopped working. They knew they couldn't get to us. We would die.
So they sprayed the blue stuff on us. And I could suppose further
that some of us survived the last few months because of it. I can't
prove it but I suspect it did help us evolve into... I don't know..
Whatever the hell we are now. I know we're alive? I know our hearts
beat. I still feel human and I truly think I am still human. If it
made changes to the living they are very small changes... At least
so far. But the dead. Oh, the dead. That's a different story. It
did something else to the dead.
