Nano Z (20 page)

In a facility, thirty miles from Los Angeles, sat a scientist named Chris Granger. He was slowly falling asleep in his chair. In front of him was a computer monitor that hadn’t been turned off since the outbreak. Its purpose was to send and receive messages from any Galatea facilities that still survived.

Chris pulled the overnight shift. He hated it but at least it meant that he could spend time with his family during the day. It had been months since the last communication, so sleeping while on duty didn’t make him feel particularly guilty.

Moments away from fully falling asleep, Chris was awoken by beeping noises from the computer in front of him. He couldn’t believe it. Someone was sending a message. Curious and excited he read it.

In need of immediate evacuation. Send clean up squads. Location: Las Vegas Facility - CEO Ted Gorman.
