They say seven is the number of perfection.For Luna Seraphine, it was the number that ended her silence.Six times, she tore the divorce papers apart, choosing love over pride, endurance over dignity, surrendering to the cruel demands of the mate who never cherished her.

Many years ago, a meteorite crashed into earth in New York city and this was the beginning of mankind's unprecedented evolution.

The year was 2030 and humanity had reached a stage that would not have been possible otherwise without this external factor but they weren't satisfied. In the selfish attempt for humanity to once again force their evolution, the search for immortality began.

A man named Dr. Schneider was the man responsible for this feat and he did achieve his goal but like the saying goes, be careful for what you wish for because that immortality came in the form of something perverse and twisted to nature.

It came in the form of zombies.

The world was in shambles or was it?
