But that soon fell into question when I was met with my last words of that life.
"...We are looking for more to join us." The man at my family's dinning room table pleaded." Can you find it in your heart in anyway to help us Mr Iris...?""

"The Black Cure: Origins of the SCP-049 Plague Doctor.
Prologue Europe, 1600s. The world is broken by pestilence. Cities are smothered in silence, bells tolling for the dead. Plague doctors wander the streets like omens, their masks of beak and glass reflecting not healing but despair. Yet, among them, one walked with a purpose beyond gold and coin. His name is lost to time, but history would remember him only as the Doctor. This is his story before the walls of containment, before the chains of the Foundation, when he was still a man-yet already something more.. Wanna make a SCP-049 known as the Plage Doctor's past a story. There will be tragic, romance, dark and you name it. And no there isn't any BL in it. Wanna make it a beautiful novel story of 049.
The Virus Within (Original rough draft)
Back by popular request! The 2017 rough draft of The Virus Within! (Caution: Contains massive plotholes that were fixed in the polished The Virus Within Series. Grammar issues are present, particularly missing commas.) What do you do when you are one of the infected? The virus in my blood is trying to steal my humanity. It alters my very thoughts and reactions. It taunts me by tempting me with desires that it planted in my brain. These bloodthirsty desires would lead to my demise if I ever gave in. I have more in common with the zombies than with humans at this point. Even the fallen zombies accept me as one of their own. Blood is required to retain my grip on sanity, but the sweet-smelling blood from humans is a short path to madness. Human blood is to be avoided at all costs. Humankind around the world was driven close to extinction by the sudden appearance of the zombies, yet small groups of survivors constantly manage to appear and put my control to the test. -------------------------- This is a standalone zombie book. It has nothing to do with A Different Virus. I wanted to try a book with an easily irritated main character and a nutcase secondary character. This book has a slightly darker outlook at the beginning than my usual stories, but it has some humor further along. Definitely not a horror story, although it has its share of action. 4 updates a week: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday! Copyright April 2017. All Rights Reserved.

A Different Virus - Laura's Story
This is a second view point from my original story - A Different Virus - Heartfire. I highly advise reading the original book first. Intro: Laura was a happy child without a care in the world. She loved her parents and life was perfect. Nothing seemed like it could go wrong. People started talking about a bad flu that was spreading and sending some into a coma. Her parents grew worried and stocked the house in case of a pandemic. Months later another virus appeared. Her family was shocked when the news people started reporting that zombies were actually real and not just part of a horror movie. They were appearing in every country. Her parents reassured her that none of the zombie sightings had been anywhere close to them. Her life is turned upside down when her father ends up in hospital with the bad flu and mother exiles her upstairs for her safety. She was never allowed downstairs again. Weeks pass and the streets become deserted with the exception of the red eyed zombies that wandered around. One night she notices a swiftly moving figure with glowing blue eyes in the street below. Should she call out or remain silent? Is this fleeting shadow something that can help her or could this mysterious figure be even more dangerous than the zombies themselves? ---------------------- Ranked #1 Apr 10, 2018 (A huge thank you to all who read and voted!) This story is copyright and built from my own imagination. This book was a special request from someone who helped me a lot. This viewpoint has less action than the original. The cover was made by @All_AboutAssymetry. A huge thanks to her! Copyright September 2016. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy, alter, or steal this story.

Mean Looking Sweetheart
My breath hitched, the moment he held my wrist to stop me, his grip so light as if he was holding something made of feathers. He pleaded, looking down at his feet, "Then... take me, Ava, to where sinners go. But please take me yourself. So, I can be with you, just for a second more." His voice turned so soft at the end, just a whisper, for a moment, I thought I had only imagined him saying that. That was probably the most I've ever heard him say. Please don't make me doubt my decisions. It's best to stay away from you. I'm not strong enough to face the loss again when it comes. ______________________________ People look at their feet when he is standing in front of them. Salvatore Agosti, the man who was a mystery from the very beginning, they only know him to be a multibillionaire, that's all, no records, no evidence and no witnesses against him. Until now. When everyone targeted and was against Salvatore, him in cuffs, almost vulnerable. The only person who stood up for him was someone he never expected. The feather-like Avalyn, the ex-wife he divorced without ever being involved with, in any way. A marriage is just in name. Well, he can only hope he doesn't regret his life decisions and fall headfirst for this little ball of energy. Or maybe he already does? #11 in mystery-thriller #2 in apologyComplete

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.

Sector 5: The Reawakening(book 2)
(Book three coming soon hopfully sooner then later!! ;3) Previously, in Sector 5: Decades ago, Dr. Allen's cure-all serum inadvertently caused the apocalypse, turning him into Patient Zero and the shifting, monstrous First Blight. He was eventually brought into Sector 5, a fortified city defended by "unwantables" Team 7. Allen, initially amnesiac, slowly recalled his past as a victim of betrayal. His presence ignited Sector 5's central conflict, especially as Nero (revealed as Reno, the First Vampire Lord) and Natalia (a vampire with a unique, blighted connection to Allen) grappled with his existence. The chaos escalated with Belshy's vampiric invasion, pushing the city to its breaking point. During this turmoil, Team 7 underwent profound changes: Sabrina died fighting, then astonishingly reanimated as an angelic being with white wings, defended by Mercury. Joey mutated into a unique cat-like hybrid. The ultimate horror arrived when Allen fully transformed into the towering, rampaging First Blight. Its very presence turned humans feral and reanimated all dead creatures. Reno and Belshy formed an uneasy alliance to fight it. But it was Allen, breaking free from the monster's control and becoming The Plague Master with a formidable purple scythe, who finally destroyed the Blight. His victory, however, unleashed a new world. All the dead, including those from the "Golden Age," began to reanimate as conscious monsters, confused and unaware of the decades passed. Simultaneously, magic began to emerge globally as a "Spark" in children, and soul weapons evolved beyond swords to include ranged forms.Complete
