In the year 2025, humanity had achieved many great things. Technology was skyrocketing, and human curiosity and greed were growing with it. The once blue skies were now a perpetual grey, as if mourning the loss of humanity's innocence. The world was on the brink of a new era, but little did anyone know that it would be an era of destruction and chaos.
However, on February 22, 2025, an experiment went horribly wrong. Scientists had been merging animal DNA with human DNA, hoping to create a new, superior species. They had been using bio technology to bring back extinct species, but their ambition had come at a terrible cost. The experiment backfired, unleashing a zombie apocalypse that would wipe out 80% of the world's population.
Cranelex, a 21-year-old college student, was caught in the chaos. He and his family had been on the run for weeks, searching for a safe haven. They had fled from city to city, always staying one step ahead of the zombies. But their luck ran out when they encountered a massive horde of zombies while driving to another city.
Cranelex's father floored it, desperate to escape, but the car flipped, leaving them stranded in the middle of the road. The zombies closed in, their moans and groans filling the air. Cranelex's parents told him to leave them behind. "Save yourself, son," they begged. But Cranelex refused.
Just as all hope seemed lost, a tall, armored figure appeared out of the chaos. He grabbed Cranelex and dragged him to safety, leaving his parents behind. Cranelex watched in horror as his parents were consumed by the zombies. He tried to struggle free, but the armored figure was too strong.
The armored figure took Cranelex to a laboratory hidden deep beneath the earth. There, he met the scientist responsible for the zombie apocalypse. The scientist revealed that he had created a serum that could make humans immune to the zombie virus.
Cranelex was skeptical, but the scientist assured him that the serum was the only way to survive in a world gone mad. Cranelex agreed to take the serum, and as it coursed through his veins, he felt a strange sensation. He was changing, his body mutating into something new, something monstrous.
Cranelex soon discovered that he had superhuman strength, agility, and endurance. He also found that he was immune to the zombie virus and could even command the zombies to some extent. But with these newfound powers came a crippling sense of guilt and anger.
Cranelex's desire for revenge consumed him. He attacked the scientist's assistant, killing him in a fit of rage. He then turned on the scientist, ripping his heart out of his chest.
As the days passed, Cranelex struggled to come to terms with his new existence. He was a monster, a creature driven by rage and a hunger for destruction. He tried to kill himself, but his new body was too resilient. He could heal from even the most grievous wounds.
Cranelex soon discovered that he had a longer lifespan and rarely felt hunger or thirst. He also found that he could avoid zombies' attention and even command them to some extent.
One day, while exploring the laboratory, Cranelex stumbled upon the records of the research and videos of the scientist he had killed. He learned that the serum was meant to create a new species of human, one that was immune to the zombie virus.
Cranelex also tried to help a group of survivors by giving them his blood, hoping it would cure them. But instead, they either died or turned into zombies. He realized that his blood was not a cure, but a curse.
In the end, Cranelex came to the realization that he was the only one who was immune to the zombie virus. He had awakened a new species of human, one that was capable of surviving in a world gone mad.
And so, Cranelex set out into the unknown, a monster driven by his own rage and a hunger for destruction. He was the last hope for humanity, but he was also a reminder of the dangers of playing with forces beyond human control.
