Nora has been running for a long time. The infection gave her a reason to, that didn't feel like cowardice.
When the news broke that the world was descending into a zombie apocalypse, Nora already had her life sorted; she had a home she knew every inch of, all the provisions she needed to keep her on track for a decent while, and someone to keep her company. She's survived like she always has, but she knows her luck will, one day, run out.
Years after the initial news, she's still alive, surprisingly, but she doesn't always feel it. Stuck between perpetual fear, and lasting fight, she needs something to break the cycle. So when a small group of survivors catch her running across the grass at Juniper Green, Adult Village and Holiday Park, she sets her sights on making sure she saves them. What she didn't expect, was them saving her too.

2087's Cure - Draft
-This is only a rough draft of my story I am currently working on the final draft so it will be much different in the final draft- After the events of the toxic woman, Gloria Ramirez, more and more people became "toxic", but as time went on and the earth began to fail due to global warming and pollution, the toxic virus began to change as well. No one really knows when it happened, but around the age of 25 and no later than 35, people began to become toxic, as if it was embedded into the entire human race's genetics. Some say this was caused by mass radiation poisoning, others say this is God's way of punishing us for our sins, but one thing we do know is that when you do become toxic, you don't just become sick and die, you become a zombie. This story follows six young adults as they discover some scary truths about themselves, and have to learn to survive on their own stuck in an abandoned city full of the one thing that can't die, because it already is dead. -This is a story I originally wrote for my English class, where we wrote stories based on real events. This can be a sensitive topic so if it may trigger you in any way you can always just step off my page, I won't feel hurt at all- Word Count: 17521Complete

"You can't tell me there isn't something here worth risking everything for." [New Adult Apocalyptic Romance] Summary: There are some things that you can't outrun. That becomes all the more obvious when the world is ending, when there's nothing left but the feral creatures that were once people, consumed now by a virus that's made them cannibalistic and ravenous. It might just be easier to end it all, but Claire still has one last thing to fight for. Her younger sister. And she intends to keep her safe, no matter the cost. So, with no other options and her sister in tow, Claire ventures out into the dangers of this new, unforgiving world in search of safety, security, and answers to some long burning questions. The first two things -along with some new, unexpected questions- she finds in an unlikely place: a stranger who she's become indebted to. She has a feeling he can help her answer all her questions, if she can allow herself to fully trust him. Trust, she thinks, is a fragile thing. Humanity, a construct. Love, a weakness. But these are the thoughts of a survivor, and she's beginning to wonder if surviving is all she wants. Maybe she wants to live.
