((Funky, I meant, like what city/town. I know she is in her house. xD
EDIT: It is also said in the real Walking Dead, the bite doesn't infect people. The people are already infected, airborne, water and ground. All three ways can cause infections and the bite just puts more of the infection into the body until the immune system can't take it and the host dies. The rest is unknown, like how they reanimate. So, you could reanimate no matter the death or even if you aren't bitten. You would be drinking, eating or breathing in the infection.))
When Michel finally got to the city he saw the streets crowded with people in the stores, all screaming and grabbing things as if the world would be ending or something.
Michel stopped his car because the street was also crowded with abandoned vehicles. He grabbed his backpack and then walked to the street of the hospital, avoiding all the people. The city was in the middle of a riot! All the people was screaming and fighting for the food, the stores where being ransacked and there was no reason for it. Michel started running to the hospital and was also crowded with people, and the marines where holding everyone in the front gates.
He was at certain distance, but, however he catch up the messenge that the Marines where giving to the people
-"Please, Everyone that is still in the streets go back to your respective houses. This place is no safe for you. Stay inside your houses and hear the news, you will be able to see whats happening and the current situation. We will take care of all the people in the hospitals"
I should go to the house of Jason, to see if he's alright. Then he got out of the crowd, concerned about his family, to see if his brother knew something else
((No offense, but that's somewhat bland. No virus spontaneously evolves with the symptoms of the flu, but it reanimates someone after death. I was thinking more along the lines of an ebola virus strain that evolves to degrade not just the intestines, but also the brain, increase both hunger and loss of sanity.))
((Let's all just say that it's some kind of disease that no one knows about and no one can figure out what it is. Everyone can make up they're minds as to what it is, what caused it, that way we don't have so much forum conflict.))

((Have you heard of a virus that evolved from a flu and kept it's symptoms?))
((Let's all just say that it's some kind of disease that no one knows about and no one can figure out what it is.))
((Basically, that is what a zombie infection is, as the study can't be completed either because the scientists died and the outbreak spreads or that the infection is just too complex for us to understand.))
((Yes, where is your character? If you're not impressed you can always leave))
((David is somewhere near Minneapolis, in the middle of a gang war between two fictional gangs I made up. The Deadly Sins from Chicago and Junky Daggers of Minneapolis.))
((If the virus specifications were all i cared about, I'd start my own roleplay. Mind not attacking me for the next 10 minutes while i write a new post to restart my character? Thank you.))
((Alright Electro, think of it as no one knows what it is, that way you can speculate what it might be, but for me, I'm sticking to what the creator of The Walking Dead has stated, he stated that he will not go into the specifics and to just leave it in a gray area, so anyway, let's continue.))
((This is exactly why the setting should have been limited to a specific area. Then, if you guys wanted to go somewhere else, you could have done it in a group. Instead you have a bunch of people in different corners of the country with virtually no way to reach each other in a realistic manner, at least not within a quick time frame.
((Lol, you can say your Character fast traveled to New York. Also I did the free area thing because I wanted to give people the opportunity to spread out, let them do they're own thing.))
((Yes, It's okay, but I'd like to have the opportunity to RP with someone, and not just alone, so I'd like if someone could... er... spawn? near my area P.S: My character didn't traveled yet, I just would like to :D))
Sitting at his overcrowded desk covered in laboratory abstracts, notes, empty test tubes, and slides that haven't been used in the past month, Samuel carefully focused his microscope on a slide of the virus that desperately needs a name if it's going to become a global pandemic that is supposed to kill most of earth's population and reanimate them as zombies. The slide was “borrowed” from the laboratory he worked at as an assistant for some money to help pay for his college classes. “Day 1.” Samuel spoke clearly into his microphone, which was recording at the moment. “The unnamed virus has taken an unusual approach on the inserted mice blood. It appears to be using the blood cells as a host, but also corrupting the blood, as if it were completely altering the organism.” Samuel leaned back. “Oh, right, it IS completely altering the organism.” He frowned, looking at the global news reports he pinned to his wall. Suddenly, someone banged on his door, startling the biologist. “Yes?” He looked up. One of his dorm neighbors, someone he honestly couldn't remember the name to, no did he care to, stormed in. “Someone left the unnamed virus that really needs a name's containment cell open, there's no telling who could have picked it up, now!” Samuel took off his glasses. “Are you kidding me? What idiot did that?!” The other man shrugged. “I don't know about you, but I'm out of here.” He said, leaving the dorm. “Right...” Samuel got up and slowly closed his door. He leaned against the door and called his biology instructor. “Dr. Curtis, is it true that the containment for the unnamed virus needs a name?” Dr. Curtis quickly responded. “Yes, it is true.” “And is it also true that some idiot left the containment box for the unnamed virus open?” “Yes, that is also true, we're trying to clean it up at the lab, we can't confirm that we have cleaned up all of the virus. By the way, one of the slides are missing, do you know where it is?” “No, sir, but the slide I used is still in my microscope at the lab, have you tried there?” “Not yet, but I will.” Dr. Curtis hung up as Samuel laughed. “Yep, it was definitely still on my microscope in the lab.” he chuckled as he returned to his work.
Current location: Charlottesville, VA
Virus Presence: Low
Additional notes: If the virus is truly a virus, then it will replicate as it comes in contact with a cell, simply by infecting the cell. Airborne or not, all it takes is one virus to get into a cell without the immune system catching it, and you suddenly have hundreds and possibly thousands of viruses being produced by that cell.
