Letters To The Dead by KateaStar456

In the wake of a devastating zombie apocalypse that swept through England, Lily emerged as one of the resilient survivors who sought refuge in America. Her life had crumbled, consumed by grief, until an unexpected reunion with an old military comrade brought purpose to her existence. Tasked with navigating the unforgiving apocalypse and unraveling the mystery behind the vanishing souls and a clandestine base, Lily had no inkling that her journey would lead to unexpected love and the forging of a tight-knit family within the ranks of the military unit. Throughout this perilous odyssey, Lily must confront not only the horrors of the apocalypse but also her own inner demons. The search for answers about her family's secrets unravels a profound and chilling truth that could change everything.

HOTSPOT by avior-etc

Teddy lives in a world where chemical warfare has left behind hotspots that turn humans into festering, mutated creatures with no sense of reason. Things have calmed down for her, however-she and her girlfriend live in a multistory car park along with others, a group of survivors managing a struggling existence alongside their decaying earth. Teddy, however, finds herself bored; itching for a fight. Things are too good. Too peaceful. Her secret wish comes true in the form of an attack by a neighbouring group and the arrival of a teenage boy in search of his brother. Overwhelmed, the group suddenly finds itself reeling, crippled and unguarded. In the wake of tragedy, her new companion holds a deep vendetta, and tensions between Teddy and her girlfriend are on the rise. Is it worth the war she so desperately craves? warnings for: violence/gore, death, swearing written for the z-fic novella contest. total word count: 22,822

The Remnant of the Past (GXG) by algae_

We watch the Earth take its final breath. Humankind began to decline, and previously unseen species began to emerge-Earth was a blank canvas ready to be repainted. However, there were still people alive who had tampered with the old Earth's downfall.
