Brain Dead; A Zodiac Story

"Ooooh I'm coming to get you~" She playfully bit my shoulder and I freaked, screaming at the top of my lungs while swatting my hand at her face.

"Don't scare me like that you ass!!" I snapped at her, before curling up into a ball and rocking back and forth.

Sag shuffled away from me and pouted, rubbing her nose as she silently apologized. I felt guilty for hitting her in the face, but I couldn't help it! I was freaking out about this, there was NO time to play games..

"Did you guys hear that..?" Taurus suddenly spoke through the darkness and I could see his soft brown eyes widening in concern.

"Haha, very funny Taur. I didn't think you'd stoop down to Sag's level." I spat back in a huff.

I could see his mouth open, as if he was about to respond, but he zipped it shut as a loud clang was suddenly heard from right outside the door.

A strange illness has been spreading across the city and country as a whole. Scientists haven't been able to determine what the disease actually is, but they're confident that it's contagious.

They've been calling it the 'Blank' Virus, since side-effects have included people losing their minds and going mad; attacking people without hesitation and even killing them. Doctors and scientists have also reported that patients have seemed to be in a zombie-like daze, their brains completely dead but their bodies still moving.

It's completely unknown to how people contract the virus, but it's advised to treat any open wounds, as it may be a factor to how people have been contracting the virus. With the virus spreading through the air, there's not really a great chance of anyone surviving,

Unless someone finds a cure.
