The last time this supervolcano erupted was more than 70,000 years ago, and scientists believe that it may have been responsible for the 'genetic narrowing' in human DNA, causing human life to almost end before it started...

Scientists are baffled as to why the seemingly dead volcano chose now to erupt, as there was no seismic buildup to indicate that this would be happening. The amount of volcanic material that has been ejected from this event has never been seen on Earth since it last erupted, in BC 79,000, and the sheer volume dwarfs that of the earlier Eyjafjallajökull in Icealand. All air travel to the following countries has been rendered impossible...

More than fifteen earthquakes, ranging from 6 to the never-before seen 10 on the Richter scale have rocked the area near Indonesia... There is an uncountable death toll already in the archipeligo, and one that is looked set to rise as further aftershocks hit the area. In addition, the Earthquakes have triggered a number of tidal waves to begin sweeping their way across the Pacific ocean- China, Japan, India, Australia, Malaysia and more have all experienced these tsunamis... Experts say that the western coast of the US will be experiencing them shortly, as well as further Earthquakes...

Death tolls are rising within San Francisco, and the states of Washington and Oregan have also been put on high alert. Mexican troops have crossed the border in order to supply aid, and US troops are being martialled to provide aid to Baja California. San Diego has become a rallying point for troops of both nations...

Wyoming, Utah and Idaho have all had military presences in the area dramatically increase...

Robin looked at his phone, astonished. "I mean, it isn't quite the virus we expected, but this is... Much, much worse." He shook his head. Already, things were getting colder in the US. Just four days since the Toba Supervolcano eruption had gone off... Everything had gone to shit so fast. "Just be glad we prepared at all. We can survive this." Trixie pecked him gently on the cheek, fiddling with the radio as she did so. She had been flicking through channels for a while- lots of people were suddenly online. One of the channels she switched to, however, seemed a little different than the rest. [h3]"Hello America! My name's Three Dawg! I'll be your post apocalyptic radio host, as the world goes to shit around you! I'll be offering advice, music, news and more every day until I can't broadcast no more, or this whole mess gets sorted out, whichever comes first!"[/h3] The voice that boomed out was loud, but cheery as well. "Huh. He got on air fast." The firefighter cocked her head a little bit. As soon as the pair had heard about the National Guard moving into California, they had quit their jobs- dropped them like hot coals. They did not want to be on the frontlines of them and potential wildfires, or whatever else might ravage their county. No thank you. Was it selfish? Yes. But they would only survive by being selfish, and as ruthless as possible. That would be the new world. "Reckon he's a nutjob?" Robin drummed his hands against the side of the sofa as his phone moved achingly slowly. The internet and phone lines were intermittently overloaded. This seemed to be one of those times. Servers were probably crashing, although the power grid was still working fine it seemed. "Nah, I don't think so. I just think he's a massive Fallout fan who's living out his prepping dreams." His girlfriend gave a laugh and stretched out a little bit. "Apparently the Chinese place is still delivering. Want to get some takeout whilst we still can? Y'know, before the entire country gets locked down, and we're dealing with another supervolcano blowing its top to boot." "You reckon that it's really going to go? I mean, it seems to be indicating that way, especially with the one in Malaysia..." "Indonesia." Sorry, with the one in Indonesia going off so suddenly like that." "Yeah, I reckon so too. Man, it's getting chilly, isn't it?" "Yeah. 'Global cooling.' All the ash from the eruption is getting into the atmosphere. They're recommending that people start wearing those filter masks if they have to go out, and staying within cars rather than walking or biking to places. Good job we were prepared for that too." "I just can't... Oh. Oh dear." "What?"

"Because they are?"
