The world was over...the end of modern-day society occurred after the planet had been ravaged by a plague that was simply unmanageable and many, many people died. When everything started to go wrong the population of the world ranged around 8 billion people but today, no one really could know since global communication had broken down but at best guess evaluated the remaining populous was under 2 billion...

Over the 10 years since ‘The End’ nature had started reclaiming the planet from its decimated occupants, streets, cities, have vanished into the regrowth of vegetation...the remaining population branched off from the large cities into more manageable communities in small villages, towns.

With the loss of so many people, even normal services suffered...the gas stopped flowing, the electricity went out, even the water stopped flowing reverting the population back to a much more primitive time and with that the strong began preying even further on the weak than before. Resources would be stolen from those who couldn’t protect themselves, even women became a commodity as people scrambled to continue their way of life and keep their communities populated.

Your character would be a single girl, a rare find indeed, with a hint of an independent streak...she insisted on going with teams on scavenging missions to collect rare resources or even just supplies needed to keep different machines operating in their community.

On one such expedition, she would duck into the remains of an old convivence store to have her eyes fall on a rare item...a case of old-world water bottles...completely clean water... Delving deeper into the store she wouldn’t even notice the multitude of traps that had been setup in the building...she also had no idea...that she was being watched...

She may not even be aware there were people out there in the world still in the possession of technology and equipment that is far advanced from the days before the end...and he was one of those people and she would soon be introduced to this new normal.
