“The Undead are here and they are feasting on the living.”

The message was simple enough: “Stay in your homes. Do not come into contact with anyone who looks suspicious. And whatever you do… DON’T GET BITTEN.” 
It’s been three months since the first cases of the Carrier virus or Mortis Re-anima took hold in human patients. Now we are fighting off those who have come back to life. Will someone please tell me … WHY THE HELL WON’T THE DEAD STAY DEAD! 

Set to the backdrop of a Post Apocalyptic Philippines, two individuals are to be put the test both struggling to survive and both struggling to fend of the idea of becoming another victim.  The world around them has crumbled and all remnants of civilization are either sparse or non-existent. 


The Soldier

Battle hardened and tested, fighting off rebel liberation armies in the north, Captain Nathaniel Ibarra has fought his way down to reach his home town San Fernando which he now finds in ruins. His saving grace may just be an American marine left stranded by the outbreak. 

The Girl

Virulence Immune by LittleRaven94

It took barely over a month for the epidemic to spread across the globe. Contrary to belief, the world didn't end with a bang and neither did it go quietly. No. It ended one scream at a time. A little more than a year has passed since the outbreak swept over the planet and annihilated a good portion of the living. Perri was one of the lucky ones who managed to evacuate with the military escorted buses in those early days of the spread. But, that luck didn't last. After one too many tragedies, she had decided to finally leave the, so called, "safe zone". With her main objective being the search for her best friend, she finds more than she bargained for. Her blood is death. Her blood is virulent. Her blood is life. Salvation is hers to give.

The Hollowing by MartinNeue

The dead have never been so alive. After a deadly contagion reduced the world's population into mindless, undead monsters, the ruins of America still teem with activity, as some of the dead have regained their intelligence and created their own society; one free from the living's touch. Now, more than a decade later, survivalist extraordinaire Liam Fenix undertakes a harrowing escape from the uninhabited island that has been his prison since before the outbreak began, only to discover that he is the sole survivor of the civilization he left behind. He is not alone, however, as reincarnated bounty hunter Leah believes that Liam holds the key to reversing the pandemic that created her race. Armed with their survivalist expertise and following traces of the past, the two must traverse the wastelands together and bring back life to an otherwise dead world, even as they are pursued by a tyrant who does not want this plague to end. ------- Top tags to date: #1 in Gritty 12/21/2022 - 1/11/2023 ------- New chapters will be posted on Mondays, 4:00-6:00PM EST.
