-:Setting:-
January 1st, 2000 all of the world's computers ceased to operate. This event is known as Y2K. As a result banking operations were shutdown, electrical power grids also ceased operations. The world quickly spiraled into chaos. A world war broke out and soon to follow was all out nuclear warfare. The result left the earth decimated as well as most of its population. For those left there was still the problem of radiation. However a chemical was released in the air. It drastically reduced the levels of radiation, but it came with a side effect. DNA of all species began to mutate leaving behind monstrosities.
It is now the year 2102 and you are a dog named Dash. Your owner (Dr. Finch) is a Medical Doctor. On a scavanging trip in an attempt to create much needed medicine, She is kidnapped while you are asleep. When you awake all you are left with is the trace scent of your master. You must track her down and save her!
