Story:
Angela and Scott is making a news regarding the life of the fire fighters. They followed Jake in the fire fighting car and went into a building. They bang a door of an old lady, she answered the door and started to attack. The residents begin to panic as the CDC quarantines the building.

Meanwhile, Angela interviews a little girl named Briana who lives with her mother and dog in the building. Briana is ill, and says that her dog is at the vet because he appeared to be sick as well. A health inspector, wearing a hazmat suit, arrives and attempts to treat the injured people who were bitten, but they too become fiercely violent.

The health inspector reveals that the previous day, a dog with an illness was taken to a local veterinarian. The dog became violent, and killed or infected the other pets at the clinic, later having them euthanized. The CDC used the dog's collar to trace his home back to the apartment building. The inspector tells the distraught residents that this unknown but virulent disease is infecting people and causing them to turn into bloodthirsty savages. More people in the building become infected, leaving Jake, Angela, and Scott to fight them off as they search for a way out.

Jake is eventually killed, and Angela and Scott appear to be the only human survivors, everyone else being either dead or infected. The two are forced upstairs to the attic-apartment, where they lock themselves in. They search the apartment and discover that the owner was charged with researching and isolating a suspected Armageddon virus for a cult. Unfortunately, the virus managed to mutate and become contagious, infecting the man.

The attic-apartment's tenant, now a ghoulishly emaciated figure, begins searching around, unaware of Angela and Scott's presence. They try to escape, but are viciously attacked by the man, leaving Scott dead. Angela tries to escape the room, but is attacked by the infected man and knocked down. As she crawls away slowly on the ground, she is suddenly dragged into the darkness, leaving her fate unknown.
