The sickness came seven months ago. A deadly flu that was a troublesome factor for all doctors worldwide, it was a strange oncoming of a disease, and most of the world was infected with it. They came to the realization that it was an extensive (and fatal) form of radiation sickness. Within a few weeks the world’s population had decreased by 4.3 billion, and it kept on going down... fast. Soon there was nothing that could be done, no medication, nothing just the sweet release from this life. Two weeks ago the last humans died, now the world was left abandoned, cold, and alone.... Well, mostly.

Canines. Yes, canines were immune to the sickness. The radiation seemed to do nothing to them, they managed to thrive on. Though some of them went insane from the sudden collapse of the human race, and became ruthless killers, savages, hellbent on destroying all that dared oppose them. These beasts were known as the “Tainted Ones” the ones who no longer saw the reality in their actions, and were turning into mindless beasts. All dogs knew to avoid these, and they usually grouped up in small packs or hoards to make sure that they would be protected from everything that the Tainted opposed. There was fear growing, fear that they would all turn into these monsters and that there would be no hope for them; that the world was really lost. But as all, where you find darkness you find a light.
Those dogs who had the mental capability to ignore the taint began to grow smarter, faster, stronger. They didn’t hold the natural instinct that all dogs had, they could now speak, and were able to feel more than basic emotions. They were starting to turn into four-legged furry humans. Though whether this is a good or bad thing is yet to be known, as now the dogs started to know more of what was happening, and they were starting to learn that the world was now theirs. That they were now the most powerful animals in the world, and that they were on top of the food chain. Still, they knew that before that they could get ahead of themselves they would have to do something about the Tainted Ones. That those who didn’t have their new found minds were still a threat, and that they could easily wipe them out. So what would they have to do?

Some dogs posed an attack on those who were tainted, though others thought that this wouldn’t be a good plan, that the Tainted Ones would overwhelm them, that running into this would be the same as committing suicide. As the Tainted were starting to turn into more ghoulish monsters than dogs, with sharp claws and glowing eyes, clearly the radiation was affecting them - but in a bad way. Now the dogs are arguing over what will happen with the Tainted Ones, if they can defeat them or not. If there’s in hope in thinking that they will be able to, or if this is just a waste of time altogether. But whatever they decide with they’ll need to come up with something fast as the Tainted Ones are growing more powerful and deadly with each passing day, and that if they really don’t do anything that hope will end up truly being lost....
