Chapter 1 - Blackacre

It's been five years since most of the human race was mutated by an unknown virus. Blackacre, the home of seventeen-year-old Malcolm, is now struggling to survive. Food is becoming harder to scavenge, and the people are becoming more hostile, and Malcolm's mother, Lily, and her leadership are starting to be questioned. When Malcolm becomes infected with the virus himself, he is exiled into the outside world with 'the others' and the infected who have now become rapid, flesh eating monsters. Malcolm tries to fight to survive while waiting for the virus to completely take over, only... it doesn't.
