[Rabids 01] • Edge of Instinct

The world is in chaos, and your next breath may be your last…

In a reality where the slightest drop of saliva or blood can leave you with a hunger for your neighbor’s flesh, eighteen year old Amiel Hilden’s life is anything but ideal. Not only does she live in a world of Rabids, her home life isn’t any better. Her power hungry mother controls the entire town, and she doesn’t think twice about using her daughter as a pawn in her ambitions. Yet it isn’t until the death of her beloved brother that Amiel’s world truly spins out of control. With the pain of his loss burning a hole through her soul, she sets out on a dangerous path intent on securing a new and better life.

Amiel imagines a world with friends, freedom, and safety from the things lurking in the shadows. She even entertains the idea of finding love with someone that would meet her approval, instead of her Mother’s. Her dreams certainly didn't include the painful blackouts that left her with no memory, and they absolutely didn’t include waking from those black outs to find herself in a pile of slaughtered Rabids. Making a new life in a dying world is difficult enough, but unconsciously killing Rabids with your bike helmet takes matters to a whole new level of complicated.
