    In the future, everyone who's bitten by a zombie turns into one... until Diane doesn't. Seven days later, she's facing consequences she never imagined. * * * * * As civilization collapses under a relentless wave of zombies, Diane and her friends take shelter in a military base. However, while she's rescuing another survivor, Diane gets bitten by one of the monsters. She hides it and runs away, knowing she only has days left to live. But she soon discovers she isn't turning into a zombie - she's turning into something else. --------- Excerpt: I looked up and stared. My reflection looked back at me in the mirror of the dark room. My eyes were literally glowing, there was no mistaking it. It was not a reflection of light, or any of the other excuses I had used or others had assumed. They were glowing a light sapphire blue color. It was not a bright glow, but it was definitely a glow. Glowing eyes were not normal. Okay, at this point I had to admit it, I was no longer normal. What was I then? For that, I had no answer [[Word count: 495,000]] Copyright August 2016. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy, alter, or steal this story.

    All 13 year old Callista wants to do is lie down on the sofa and binge-watch TV. But instead, she's blasting (slightly concerning) music through her headphones and pretending her life isn't one social disaster away from total collapse. Prepare for drama, disasters, and major embarrassment. Trigger Warnings - second-hand embarrassment, questionable music choices... and... that's it. By the way, I'm pretending that this is a published book.

    Cecilia Moore and Rowan Sinclair meet by chance over the last chocolate éclair. It's brief, forgettable, and meant to stay that way. Instead, they become friends. Slowly. Quietly. Through shared routines, unfinished conversations, and time that keeps folding them back into each other's lives. What they build feels safe because it remains undefined no expectations, no promises, no risk of loss. Rowan grows attached first, though he never says it. Cecilia senses the shift but refuses to name it, afraid that once spoken, it will demand more than she's willing to give. As the line between friendship and love blurs, they're forced to confront what happens when emotional intimacy arrives before readiness and whether some connections are doomed not because they fail, but because they are understood too late. © skiilore

    "I worry the Nexus Syndicate has gone too far this time, soon the Genesis Collapse will be upon us." ~~~~ "What if I can't protect everyone? Would that make me a bad leader?" ".........I want to see smiles on everyone's faces after this is all over. Maybe then I'll know I made a difference." ~~~~~ Zeno-scout Liam adopts codename Zorian after working on a trash cleaning ship called the Cosmic Duster. However, things go south on one of their missions and Liam gets tossed into an action-like adventure he never asked for. Now it's a fight against his ever present identity as Zorian and his past identity as Liam while there's a war going on with the Nexus Syndicate as they plan to kickstart the Genesis Collapse. Their key component to do this? Him! (Photo: curtsy of Pinterest.) P.S: story chapters still subject to change. Key: underlined word = possible change. ***Trigger warning***: possible mention of injuries or injuries happening in the story. Weapon fights but no killing will be involved, Zone distortions. Small mentions of blood but no graphic detailings. Will be mental trauma. Read at your own risk. I do not intend to cross guidelines.

    ???: "To anyone listening who has not been infected, this is a message from the Environmental Logistics & Solutions Enterprise. As you are keenly aware, our dear Earth has seen better days before the Great Desertification. And to make matters even more dire, our own attempt at combating it has turned against us. This planet is beyond our control, and beyond our help. Which is why we have taken to the stars for a fresh new start." "By the time you've received this -- we, among the rest of humanity's remnants, have set a course for the identified exoplanet Si-[**static**] confirmed to support life. As for you and anyone else unfortunate enough to've been left behind, our organization has left a parting gift to help mitigate this global ordeal. And so, we ask that you be well-advised." "If you happen to come across any carrier of the Absolute Zero virus, direct skin contact is to be avoided at all cost. It cannot be treated, and despite our best efforts, there is no known cure. So in terms of safety precautions, long-ranged heat-based weaponry is highly recommended; Flame throwers, explosives, lasers, etc. But keep in mind that they can only slow them down, not kill them outright. The cold from within will not allow that." "Furthermore, hiding from plain sight is not a viable option. They will know where you are. Not by your tracks, but by-[***static***]-atter-[***static***]-verall survival strategy is to stay as far away from the carrier as possible -- and allow our trusted St. Helio units to intervene. Rest assured, they will keep them subdued. And if all goes according to plan, the virus we created will spread no further." "Those of you who remain here have our deepest apologies. As well as our sincerest hope that you may persevere, just as human life has done since the very beginning. Farewell, good luck, and Godspeed. This world rests in your hands now."
