This Is It the Apocalypse — Daniel Smith

“What is the Phoenix Project? We exist because civilization will collapse. We cannot stop or prevent the collapse from happening. The collapse will happen. Then why does the Phoenix Project exist? To rebuild civilization after it happens. Our recruits are specialists in medical, engineering and the military fields with the knowledge needed to rebuild. They and the necessary supplies and equipment will go into cryogenic hibernation to sleep through the collapse. At the appropriate time, they will awaken. Then like the preverbal Phoenix rising from the ashes, we will rise to help rebuild the country from the ruins. That is the Phoenix Project's purpose.” “Exert from the Phoenix Project indoctrination.” Phoenix Reconnaissance Team 13 is unexpectedly awakened by a natural disaster forcing them to flee their cryogenic center. Finding themselves near the shattered remains of Los Angeles. Fifty years after the apocalypse with no contact with Phoenix base the team ventures out in to the shattered city in search of answers. They soon become embroiled in a war for power. As they travel through the city infested with gangs and crazed plague victims. The team searches for somewhere safe to stay and contact Phoenix base. Until then they must rely on their training, equipment and one another if they are to survive in this new age.
