    One day, the sky turns red. Half of humanity stops being human. When a mysterious catastrophe strikes Earth, 50% of the population mutates. Some become Evolved, wielding terrifying animalistic powers. Others descend into Feral monsters, driven only by hunger. The rest remain Unchanged, trapped in a world suddenly ruled by claws, instincts, and blood. Alex, a lonely foreign exchange student living in Tokyo, should have died on day one. Instead, after killing a creature that was once human, a game-like system appears before his eyes. Kill. Consume. Evolve. With every lifeform he slays, Alex changes, Adapts. but power comes at a cost. Certain abilities chip away at something far more fragile than his body: his Humanity. As the city collapses and monsters stalk the streets, Alex must choose what kind of survivor he will become. A protector. A predator. Or something in between. Because in this new world, evolution isn't random. It's earned. And the hunt has only just begun.

    "My girlfriend is a red flag. She cheats on me. Lies to me. Strings me along and uses me. But what can I do? I love her. Isn't it my duty as her boyfriend to set her on the right path? My friends all think I'm an idiot. "But can I somehow dye this red flag green?" Nikolaj is a hopeless romantic. Between juggling assignments and struggling to conceal his identity as an insect-freak, he had more than enough on his plate to worry about without adding a possible toxic relationship to the table. However, if Yuli could love him despite being a monster, then surely she was worth fighting for. So, okay she may not know that he's a monster, and she may possibly scream and run away if she knew the truth, but oh well. Is this toxic relationship destined to spin out of control and erupt into disaster, or can the two red flag's sort out their differences and reach a middle ground? After all, red flags just look like flags when you put on your rose coloured glasses, right?

    If there was a chance of life after death, would you use it? Would you live your life to the full, knowing that every-so-often, you'd have to run from that life again?

Aeldra is one of those people who has been cursed to live after their death, a normal human with a faster healing ability and stuck at the age they passed. A girl stuck in the past with the demons that have followed her through each century and continue to eat at her because she's alone. But what if she wasn't so alone? What if there was more like her, a whole community of them that can help her. To make her way there though, she must face the demons she fights daily first.
