White Cell Team 06
Cortinian Special Operations-Biological Countermeasures Task Force. White Cell Team 06 Category White Cell Biological Countermeasures Task Force-6 Is a special security unit belonging to the Clandestine White Cell Sub-Organization of the Cortinian Special Forces. Consisting of all hand picked volunteers, it has proven to be an effective weapon against the undead. The WCT6 is based at an undisclosed secret location somewhere in Cortinia, but operates covertly in several Locations around the world. It’s Existence, Members, or Operations are unknown but to a few of the highest members of the Cortinian Government. Its main role is covert containment, and sanitation of biological outbreaks; Retrieval/ Extraction of Evidence and Personnel. Malton- Yorkshire, England 2006. Malton was a large city with a population of around 600,000 people on the day of the outbreak (making it the third-largest city in England at the time), which occurred around July 2007. Some believe that some people escaped and left the city before quarantine. However, this is highly unlikely, since the military-imposed quarantine was so sudden; there was no chance to pack up and leave. Exactly three weeks after the outbreak, a military containment force, numbering about 200,000 troops and crew, was sent in to try to eradicate the numerous zombie hordes, but their war was lost before they even arrived. In the first two weeks, it was estimated that at least 50,000 civilians were killed in riots and zombies. About six months after the outbreak, military estimates reported 225,000-300,000 civilian deaths, attributed to zombie attacks, low food supply levels, disease, and gang violence. About 2/3 of the people initially killed were turned into zombies themselves from zombie bites. Also in those six months, about 45% of the military forces that were sent in were reported to be either KIA or MIA. A year since the outbreak, new estimates said that at least 450,000 people, including the military forces, were now dead from the previously listed causes. As of 2008, there are 15,664 survivors remaining. The Quarantine Zone, the border area that has surrounded the map of Malton has been established since the threat of an outbreak. This desolate territory is utter suicide for both Survivors and Zombies that attempts to cross it. The border is mostly just the area of surrounding city that was once part of Malton, but was then leveled and occupied by the Army in order to keep people out and zombies- and survivors- in. The soldiers stationed around Malton take special precautions that nothing crosses this zone. In places around Malton, the actual old city walls- that are, the medieval walls that were built around Malton back in medieval times and maintained as historic landmarks- have been incorporated into the Quarantine Zone's design. In other places, entirely new walls have been erected. Contingents of soldiers patrol both old and new walls day and night, manning the spotting towers, machine-gun posts, and flame turrets. But in some places no wall exists, either due to the terrain or the needs of the area. These places are possibly even more heavily defended than the walls- the obstacles include long lines of razor wire, land mines, anti-vehicle barriers, and napalm trenches, accompanied by manned machinegun emplacements that target anyone or anything that tries to cross the border. As soon as the incident was reported to the White Cell headquarters, the Countermeasures Squad was sent into Malton, England in an attempt to avoid collateral damage. The team arrived too late to stop the infection, they now fight to keep it contained.
