Mason hates neighbors. 
They're rotten things with pets that defecate on your lawn, engage in loud verbal abuse, don't take out the trash, keep asking for salt and sugar every other day and are all around a nuisance. He has had enough of it, and is moving in the most remote area possible: the top of the new tallest mountain in the world, the La'mba. Only enough space for a small mansion of his, nothing more, nothing less.

However, aliens who've colonized Mars are making a lot of neighborly ruckus, and Mason is the nearest person to bear the brunt of it. How long before he loses his patience? 

Written for the Short Dreams 2021 short story prompt contest. The prompt:
"Earth watched helplessly as aliens move "next door" on Mars.

The Virus Within: The Unranked (Book 4)

50 parts Complete

Season 4 of The Virus Within Trinity is familiar with zombies, being one herself, but when strange zombies start appearing, she realizes that the world she knew might be changing yet again. When a dangerous set of scientific notes are discovered, Trinity and her friends don't realize anything is wrong until a frantic radio call comes in. Unaware of the notes, they race to the south and struggle to determine where the strange zombies came from. The zombies are unlike any ranks previously seen, and they aren't as predictable. Some have new tricks hidden up sleeves, forcing any Stronghold they encounter to quickly adapt to the new challenge or risk being overrun. Secrets never remain hidden, and zombie apocalypses never make life easy.
