18 days till apocalypse
---------------------------

It was quite a normal day in Manhattan. Alex wandered through a once beautiful path in Central Park. The few trees which survived the viral outbreak were black and had no leaves. They were infected like every other living creature in this city, so touching them would be deadly for every human. But not Alex. He was immune to the effects of the virus. Why that was, noone other than he himself knew. He never told anyone about it, so it was just yet another secret he held from everyone.

After walking some minutes through the destroyed Central Park, he reached a small business district. The tall buildings had been abandoned years ago, so there were only ruins left. He turned into a small, dark street. The walls weren´t as stable anymore and small plants (mutated like the trees of course) covered them.
Alex reached a part of the wall which was different. It had a little white mark on it, the sign of the Assassins. He turned to the wall and pressed his right hand against the sign. A clicking sound could be heard and the wall suddenly opened and showed a staircase which led into the ground. He went downstairs into nothing but darkness.
The wall behind Alex closed and he turned the night-vision program of his visor on to be able to see were he went.

After what felt an eternity he finally reached a steel door. It opened to reveal a small elevator. The Assassin stepped into it and it went down, even further into the earth. About 30 seconds later it reached it´s destination.
Bright light shined as the steel door opened again and Alex had to cover his eyes to get accostumed to the light after going through so much darkness as he did.
Soon he could open his eyes again to be faced with a beautiful view over the city. Tall houses were carved into the stone and gigantic steel buildings could be seen from his point of view. "New Manhattan" ,as it´s called now, is a city which was build under the streets of Manhattan to save the people from the virus. Life wasn´t easy down here, as it was hard to get supplies thousands of feet under the surface. But as long as the humans were safe from the mutated creatures above them they were grateful to get an opportunity to live here.

The tallest building was a tower built in the center of the city. Alex eyed it with agony, as it held the hq of the Templars, known as Abstergo Industries to the common people. "The people who didn´t know the truth and believed the lies told by the Templars", Alex tought.

But not only the Templars had a own hq in this city.

Alex turned and started walking in the direction of a slum-like district of the city. Many people lost their home and family to the virus and had nothing left, yet they still lived. Some people sat in front of their home made of destroyed parts of the skyscrapers above the surface, giving them a roof to live under ...but nothing more. They eyed Alex curiosly as he walked through the district, but didn´t bother giving him any more attention. He did look like a guy to them who was tough and would fight back if they try to rob him. That´s what they had to do to survive under the conditions they found themselves in, so Alex didn´t blame the thiefs.

WOAH NICE PAINING! Like!

Not only the thieves were living in this part of the city. As Alex continued to walk towards his destination, he also saw many prostitutes, standing at the sides of the streets to show themselves. Just like the thieves they were poor and sold themselves to gain money to get something to eat. Seeing Alex they tried to gain his attention, but he just ignored them.

Wow your not just a good artist but a good writter o.O

He soon reached the next district. This one was crowded with different bars and clubs. Most of them were closed at this time, but at night you could wander through the colorful streets, lighted by the different signs and labels of the buildings.
It was still noon so there were only few people on the streets.

Alex finally stopped, standing in front of a little house between all the clubs. It was small and unsuspicious... just like the Assassins wanted it to be. He went to the entrance and opened the door to be greeted with... well, nothing. It was just a little room, containing some old book shelves and a worn sofa in one of it´s corners.

He went through the room to the wall at the back. A tiny hole was there, which contained a small device. An eye scanner. Alex took off his visor and positioned himself in front of it, so that his left eye could be scanned by the device. After a moment of silence, one of the bookshelves suddenly moved abd opened the way to yet another room. But this one was totally different than the other.

It was huge and covered with metal walls. There were some computers and server-towers in it and on the walls were tables, where notes and papers were pinned on.

In the middle of the room there was a blue-haired woman sitting on a chair in front of a computer, typing something on a keyboard. She was wearing a white jacket just like Alex, but with white panties and black boots. She had two ponytails on each side of her head and ocean-blue eyes. As soon as she noticed another person in this room, she turned on the chair to see who it was. Noticing Alex, she immediately smiled at him. "Hey Alex, welcome home!" Then Anivy jumped off her chair to run towards Alex to greet him fully.

Wow! You should totes post this in a book website, the storys you make are really interesting! :D
