Rayne wakes up with no memories. She has no clue of the apocalypse, who she is, or who her family and friends are. Samael is just a delinquent who happened to find her on a rooftop. They make a deal to survive together in a world where cannibal-monsters, called Murks, roam. Will they survive and find a safe haven?

Rayne is an amnesiac who just woke up. What she sees is a strange guy staring at her, while letting her know that there is an apocalypse going on. She has no clue on who she was and how she got there. Worse, she has to rely on a stranger. She soon makes a deal to protect him at all costs until she is no longer needed. Hopefully Rayne can figure out who she is and how she ended up on that rooftop. Now, she must avoid the Murk monsters and hopefully find a place where there are survivors and maybe some answers to how this all happened.
