Sirens are blaring, smell of blood and rot is overwhelming. The infected are roaming the streets, their gazes empty and pupilless. They feel nothing, but ravenous, endless hunger for flesh.
The military fell early in the apocalypse caused by the virus - they soon joined the ranks of the undead. Now the uniformed, infected alphas patrol aimlessly for the faintest hint of a morsel. Even some infected omegas in tattered nurse -outfits wander, but not with the intent to heal or save anyone.

There's stories shared by survivors of such encounters - how the special infected are growing increasingly more intelligent to chase down their prey... Some even claim that some of them have learned to talk.
