"There's a reason why we survived the outbreak, because we're chosen to live and fight for another day." - Dale

some survived.

some succumbed.

some took advantage of it.

When five boys with completely different personalities stuck together to fight for their survival during an unexpected zombie epidemic caused by an unknown virus, do they have what it takes to stay alive together amidst the clash of personalities and the chaos occuring all around them as survivors lose their head  -literally- and the living dead starts to dominate?

Will they manage to finally find a place called home and find their own peace?

Follow the adventure of five boys looking for a fighting chance.

-- important note --

-- the author's first language is not english, here's hoping fellow readers could bear and cope with any grammatical errors et cetera.

-- the flow of the plotline moves VERY slowly but it gets better as the chapters went on, hopefully...?

-- first book the author has ever seriously written, so please understand if there's any amateurism sensed throughout the book!  I'm no professional writer!

-- i wrote this book to challenge myself in english writing, so again sorry if there's any repetitive usage of words or plot holes!

-- most importantly, sit back and enjoy.

[Wattpad Featured Story] #2 in Adventure "I loved this book so much!! One of my favorites. I read it too fast 😭" - KristenDeF "Ready?" Peyton mouthed. Louie took a deep breath, squared her shoulders and nodded. She turned to the on coming threat and straightened her spine. Peyton's knife was the first one to take down a Crawler, the figure crumbling in the back. Louie found her target and let the knife sail through the night, whistling as it left her hand and found its mark. Flashes of metal streaked the night, as knife after knife was thrown, all finding their targets, dark forms collapsing one by one. As Louie sent one of her last knives flying, the Crawler's voice let free one last guttural screech as it tumbled to the ground. The remaining Crawlers looked to the window where Louie stood, their cries punching a hole in the night, filling the every ear with a blood curdling sound. It has been twenty years since the Crawlers emerged and ravanged the world. The remaining part of humanity has broken themselves into Compounds, fighting to stay alive. Louie's lived her whole life within the confines of The Compound, knowing exactly what her future held. But Peyton Jones upset that future the night The Searchers rescued his group of Outsiders. Peyton's only known a life on The Outside where everyday is a fight for survival. When their two worlds collide, Louie will be forced to rethink the future and what she expected out of life. "Best.

(Sequel to Don't Talk To Strangers) It's been a couple months since the zombies had vanished. No more zombies. No more killings. And no more bad people. So they thought... Life is good, until something seems- out of place. Maybe it's a change in the weather or thickness of the air. Or it could be the electronic buzzing noise keeping them awake at night. The gang is suspicious, but nothing peaks their interests until one of them comes home infected. It's only a matter of time until the infection spreads around the rest of their body. It's a race against the clock to help them survive. Because the friends can't part with their own. They're family. And losing another person amongst the world is too much to handle. But if adding in revengeful ex-friends, hot summers, babies AND more zombies to the mix is what it takes to finally make these kids give up, congratulations. You got your wish. Not everyone is as strong as they want to be. Will they make it or break it?

Being Human || Harry Styles by xxellsxx3
27 parts Ongoing Mature
"I'm the one asking questions here, darling. You can ask questions when I say you can ask questions. Got it?" he spat, his tone laced with cold authority. My eyes dropped instinctively to my feet, the sudden rush of fear made me mute. I nodded quickly, not wanting to piss him off more. My heart pounded, reminding me how powerless I felt. ----- It has been 2 years since the the dead spread their shadow across the planet. Danger lurks around every corner in a world overrun by the dead. Humanity clings to survival, confined to crumbling hideouts while supplies are dwindling. The streets run red with blood, and fear is pushing people to their breaking point - forcing them to commit unspeakable acts in the name of survival. Maeve Logan is a 21 year old woman who is resourceful, resilient, and hardened by the horrors she's faced in this world. Maeve has learned to adapt quickly, scavenging for supplies and mastering the art of silence to avoid detection by both the dead and the living. But one slip up caused chaos. Harry Styles is a 24 year old man with a relentless drive to protect the ones he loves, no matter the cost. His moral compass had eroded under the pressure of a world gone mad, leaving him to cross any line - whether it's killing threats without hesitation or taking hostages to secure resources for his group. Sometimes the living are far more dangerous than the dead... A broken world brought them together. She had a shattered soul, and him, a hardened heart. There was much more to face before they saw a future. Many scars, tears and losses to endure before they saw the light.

Guilt (A Zero Spin-Off) by JustACalendarDay
52 parts Complete
**This is a spin-off of my book Zero. Some of the characters will be the same, but this book can be read as a stand alone.** Everyone has made mistakes before, but not everyone has made mistakes that induce the zombie apocalypse. Ella Fairchild is one of unlucky few who can say she's made such a mistake. She didn't know what she was doing. She thought she was doing good for the world. She was wrong. But to her, none of that matters. As the last living person who contributed to the creation of H-26, more commonly known as the zombie virus, Ella shoulders the weight of the world for her mistakes. Nearly a year after the outbreak, Ella has a chance to try to right her wrongs. She hasn't been outside the walls of the safe establishment since the virus spread. Now, inexperienced, weak, and scared out of her mind, she'll do whatever it takes for a chance at stopping the virus. But she's not foolish, Ella knows she can't do this alone. Kyle Russell is a certified bad ass, an ex-Army Ranger come out of retirement to save the world from zombies. He's sinfully good looking, a little rough around the edges, and doesn't sugarcoat anything, but he's the guy you want on your team. He and his team of runners haven't failed a mission yet. Amongst their own, and even civilians, they're rock stars. They're the people who give everyone hope that a war against zombies that can be won. They're the exact opposite of Ella. They're the best, and if Ella is going to succeed, she needs the best. **This is a spin-off of Zero and will feature some of the same characters. However, it can be read as a standalone.
Earth, After ✔️ by talia-v
37 parts Complete
Some fates are worse than death--survival is one of them. In the two hundred years since humanity left the Earth's surface to live in the sky, life on the ground faded to a myth, a tragic memory from which they severed themselves to survive. They floated above continents turned to sand and lands swallowed by the seas, watched storm after storm rage against their cities and their monuments until they broke apart the last vestiges of civilization in penance for generations of human greed. As a lightning harvester charged with flying her ship into these storms for energy, Raina has seen more of the planet than most. She has spent her entire life soaring above its craters and scars, studying the gaping wounds of human devastation, as she honed her skills and became the youngest captain in storm-chaser history. Her ship has flown for generations. Her skills are unparalleled. But none of that matters the day they go down. ~ Praise for Earth, After: "I'm so not ready for this ending. I will reread this for sure. It's honestly my favourite work on wattpad ever, and among my best reads in general, it's insane. I love your creativity!" "Sometimes tearing my eyes away from the page is torture. Gosh...!!!!" "This is literally a movie - the images are so clear!" "oh my god... it has been such a long adventure [...] Youve dried up your surviving characters until the very last drop before giving the end, and my, Im speechless. Out of this world." ~ Highest rank: #17 in Adventure 25/08/19 #21 in Science Fiction 16/11/19 #24 in Action 01/01/20 Trident Awards Winner Trident Awards Judges' Favourite Award The Aurora Awards 1st Place in Science Fiction Wattpad Chronicle monthly feature April 2020
