The Blackout
Life on Earth is rapidly destroyed except for a small area in Eastern Europe. No meteorites hit Earth, no terrorists put the world in danger, no atomic war was started, but something did go wrong. Contact between most towns on Earth has been severed. A small ring-like area in Eastern Europe still has electricity, and maybe even life is being reported from the Space. What military forces find outside the Ring is shocking. There are dead corpses everywhere: in stores, in cars, on roads, in hospitals and railway stations. Who or what is destroying all life on Earth? How long will the last outpost of mankind survive? Suddenly, the whole world, except for the territory around Moscow, part of Belarus, Ukraine, Finland (which will later be called the "Circle of Life") is plunged into darkness, the fate of millions of people is unknown. The connection broke with most of the Earth and only a small number of people in the "Circle of Life" survive. People drew a new border, set up a protective perimeter, and sent reconnaissance groups beyond. They realized that there was an attack on Earth, as a result of which almost all living creatures died. To repulse the mysterious enemy, they mobilized an army, and outposts were built outside the perimeter. —Peter-Patrick76 (peter-patrick@mail.com)
