The world didn't end with chaos. It ended with silence. No warnings. No bodies. No explanation. One moment, everything was normal - the next, people were simply gone. Cities left standing, but empty. Quiet. Watching. Nia Dalton is one of the few still alive, struggling to survive in a world that no longer makes sense. Then she finds the phone. Cracked. Almost dead. But still working. At midnight, it lights up. "Don't go outside tomorrow." She ignores it. Then it happens exactly as warned. More messages follow. Each one accurate. Each one impossible. Desperate, she replies. The answer changes everything. "I'm you. Three days ahead." At first, it feels like a miracle - a way to survive. But the messages begin to change. Warnings become instructions. Instructions become commands. "Don't help him." "Leave her behind." When Nia meets another survivor, Jace, he warns her: the phone isn't helping - it's controlling her. And as reality begins to break, Nia must decide: Trust the future... Or fight it. Because the most dangerous message she will ever receive- Is her own. (For The Wattys)

Camelot died the day Arthur Pendragon took his last breath. The kingdom that once echoed with laughter, tournaments, and the clash of golden swords slowly became a land of silence. The knights disappeared one by one, the castle walls cracked beneath time, and magic once feared, once hidden faded into whispers carried by the wind. But Merlin never left. For centuries, he waited. Bound by destiny and a promise he could not break, Merlin lived through the fall of kingdoms, through wars, through endless winters, carrying the ghost of Arthur in every memory he could not forget. The world moved on. Merlin did not. Until the day Camelot called for its king again. When an ancient darkness awakens beneath the ruins of Albion, strange signs begin to appear across the land - lakes glowing beneath moonlight, forgotten prophecies burning themselves into stone, and a sword rising once more from the depths of Avalon. And then... Arthur returns. Not as the fearless king Merlin once knew, but as a man torn from death into a world that no longer belongs to him. Camelot is gone. His knights are legends. His kingdom remembers him only as a myth. Yet the throne still waits. As old enemies rise from the shadows and secrets buried by time begin to unravel, Merlin and Arthur are forced back together to rebuild what was lost while facing the truth of everything left unsaid between them. Because some destinies never end. And some love survives even death.

They survived the mall. They survived one hundred and twenty-three floors of darkness, hunger, and monsters. But survival doesn't mean safety. When a fractured radio broadcast promises supplies and refuge at the Incheon Harbor (South Korea), Jungkook, Taehyung, Namjoon, Jin, and Soohee take the risk. The road is open, silent, and wrong-fuel runs dry, time slips through their fingers, and the world outside feels far more unforgiving than the walls they escaped. By the time they reach the harbor, it stands intact. Powered. Stocked. Empty. It was a safe ground once. They just arrived too late. As night falls and the truth begins to surface, hope becomes dangerous, the infected are no longer predictable, and the line between saving others and saving themselves begins to blur. Some wounds fester. Some people change. And not everyone will leave the harbor the way they entered. In a world where safety expires and time is the real enemy, how far will they go to survive-without losing what makes them human? READ TO FIND OUT! WILL THEY SURVIVE THIS?
