IntroductionEarth as we know it is thriving at this time. No more sicknesses, famine, or global warming. But the selfishness of the humans has driven them to create a creature that will make Earth thrive even more. Oh but they were wrong, very wrong. They had created a creature that carried a highly contagious virus. The virus only effected canines. It made them highly aggressive, willing them to attack their own pack mates. It caused their colors and markings to morph into the most unusual colors. It also caused deformations in the body. The most unusual of all, it granted them horrible powers.
The infected canine had broke out of the lab. It had run freely into the nearest forest. The virus easily spread into other canines. Soon, the infected canine had formed a pack of the canines it had infected. This is how the Apocalypse Virus became.
