"Wolfclaw"
Sometime in the near future.
Dutch "Wolfclaw" Freeman is an army grunt currently living in the city. His girlfriend Scarlett is currently a "air hostess" of sorts on a space cruiser. Her cruiser takes patrons from Earth to the Moon allowing them to experience a range of new "anti gravity sports and recreations". She has just left for a month long voyage.
Dutch is woken by a scream from down the hall. Cautiously he picks his baseball bat off the floor and turns the door handle. Shallow moaning creeps in from down the hall and he slowly makes his way out to see a halls scattered with blood.
A dark figure looms over a body that lays heaped on the floor. "Is everything alright here?" asks Dutch, tightly grasping his baseball bat in his right palm. The dark figures head turns with frightening speed, its eyes white, its face scarred and rotten. Blood drips from its mouth. "What...the...fuck?" Dutch murmurs as he starts back peddling towards his apartment door.
The creature watches Dutch with wide eyes, like a nervous animal, and without warning launching at Dutch with a terrifying growl. Dutch steadies his feet and winds up the bat, "Stay the fuck back!". The deranged creature looses no pace and is closing is on Dutch fast. He steadies his feet, swivels his hips and cracks the creature over the side of its right temple. The creature slams into the wall and lands on the floor with a dull thud.
Still in shock of what just happened Dutch hears more screams echoing down from the floors above and below "What the hell is going...." Before he could finish his though, the body which was previously laying dead at the end of hall began to rise. Parts of her face were eaten away, but her skin had already turned rotten. She slowly lumbers down the hallway, each foot slowly plodding after the one before it, her arms hunched at her sides. "Holy fuck!". Behind him coming from the other end of the hallway more people are walking towards him, groaning under the breath as they stagger towards him. More than 20 of the undead stumble towards Dutch. "Jesus Christ, what is going on here?" proclaimed Dutch has leaps back behind his apartment door, deadlocking it behind him.
And now begins Dutch's journey to get out of the city and find Scarlett. Little does he know, but she is having similar problems onboard her cruiser, when a patron suddenly comes down with a high fever.
Wolfclaw is a story of love, hope and mystery. It traces Dutch's journey from his apartment, through the heart of the city and follows him as he tries to uncover the mysterious plot behind the Zombie army. A sinister plot lurks in the shadows.
Will Dutch make it in time to save Scarlett?
