"It's perfectly normal for people to die. Do you know what's decidedly not normal? People dying left, right and center. By suicide.  Sounds bad? Well then, get ready for worse. Because, these 'people' are children.  The scientists say it's because of some psychological rubbish. A mental disorder of sorts. To them, these children are victims. The unfortunate ones. But to us, they are the luckiest. 
In my world, it's better to lose. And because they lost the battle and passed on, they didn't have to see what we did. They didn't have to be what we are. They didn't have suffer as we do. We ... are the ones who were left behind.  
 And I'll bet the one who said 'Pity the living, not the dead' never dreamt his words would turn true like this." 
***
When a mysterious disease begins killing off children and teenagers all over the world by the thousands, Ellys Davidson is one of the survivors with nothing except the clothes on her back, her own eleven-year-old self and mysterious powers she understands nothing about. All she knows is that they are her punishment for surviving. She is cursed with power.

Crimson Loop by Emmanei

A perfect world for Amelie has twisted into her own personal hell. July 27th -- the day that should have been her happiest -- has become a prison she can't escape. No matter how closely she follows the script, no matter how carefully she plays her role, the story resets, dragging her back to the beginning. Now Amelie is haunted by two questions: How long can she survive when fate itself toys with her? And can she ever break free from the curse that binds her to this endless loop? *** Amelie was supposed to be the Female Lead. The story should have been hers - romance, friendship, a perfect future written in her favor. But when the world around her begins to rot into chaos, when her classmates turn into shadows with blood in their eyes, Amelie realizes the script is broken. The Male Lead she was meant to protect slips further from her grasp, and the story she thought she belonged to twists into something unrecognizable. And then it happens. A stranger steps out from the faceless crowd - an "extra" she was never meant to notice. Someone who shouldn't exist suddenly reaches for her hand. Hope comes at a cost. Every death writes her deeper into the crimson loop. And Amelie can't help but ask: ❝If I was written to be the heroine... then why does it feel like I'm not the main character anymore?❞ *** This is a work of fiction. The cover's from Pinterest.

Once Again by DragonSwirl

"It's human nature. It's instinct to survive, no matter the cost." The world has fallen into desolation. The apocalypse has already started and finished, leaving some of the surviving ones with strange powers and mysterious scars. The world has ended, according to some, and is now in a state of rebirth. Others say it hasn't ended yet and that it's only going to get worse. The remaining people have grouped together in packs and gangs, raiding the desolate cities and avoiding the ones called the Destroyers, who capture and torture the remaining survivors. No one is safe. One fifteen year old boy knows this better than anyone. He and his older sister lived together, sticking to the dark alleys of their abandoned city, and survived for years after the apocalypse, until the Destroyers came and took her away, reigning terror on the few who remained in the city. The boy, desperate to find someone to help him save his sister, leaves the city and finds one of the youngest cooperative packs in North America, called the Raiders, comprised of unwanted individuals with the strange powers left from the destruction of years past. Their leader, a destructive insomniac, promises to help him in return for the skills and usefulness this young boy seems to possess, but something disrupting sends waves of unease through the Raiders, something about a forgotten past and talk of a mutiny. "Maybe there's more to life than just surviving." ... Rated C for Caution. Though it's rated mature, there is no bad language or vivid descriptions of sexual contact. It does have very strong themes. Please read the two important notices in the intro. Read at your own risk. Thanks.

They Made Us Monsters by Niyah7212

In a world ruled by disease, fear, and government control, survival is no longer a choice-it's a rebellion. After a virus devastates the population, the U.S. government uses the crisis to seize control, turning teenagers into test subjects in brutal experiments meant to create super-soldiers. Those who are captured vanish into labs where their memories are wiped, their bodies are altered, and their identities are erased. Those who escape are left with scars-and the crushing guilt of the ones they couldn't save. Artemis Cross was never supposed to be a leader. But when she's captured and stripped of everything she knows, she becomes Subject 88, forced into a nightmare of pain, injections, and psychological warfare. Her mind begins to fracture-but one memory refuses to die: Z, the boy who once held her together, the boy she can't forget no matter how deep they dig into her brain. Outside the walls, Z is haunted by her absence. He can't eat, sleep, or breathe without seeing her face. As he and a fractured group of survivors drive through a collapsing America-riddled with graffiti, riots, and people fighting to the death over scraps-Z promises he'll find Artemis, even if he has to tear the system down piece by piece. But the deeper they get into the truth, the more twisted it becomes. Friends begin to betray each other. Love starts to fracture. And the world they thought they knew is far more dangerous than they ever imagined. Because this isn't just about surviving the system anymore. It's about burning it to the ground.

HIDDEN- Sides, Truths, Secrets by NavroseKaur88

Rose knew she isn't normal. And neither was her family. Like which family force their daughter to live alone and change her house every single fucking year, definitely not a normal one. She wanted to find answers to all the hidden secrets kept by her family and she got the chance when one day, during her 'annual ritual' of shifting houses, a group of zombies attacked her........ and she met him. ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ "Creature?" "Well, it implies to all kinds collectively. Both of bright land and dark land. The world is roughly segregated into three categories. First where humans reside alongside hunters, second Bright land, where all the mermaids, fairies, Pegasus, etc. creatures of the day live and on the contrary, third, the dark land where creatures of the night like vampires, werewolves, zombies, dragons, etc. live." ------------------------------------But what she didn't know was she has inherited the curse which had destroyed her mother's life before and is about to do the same with her. ------------------------------------ "So I am not a human? I am half dark and half bright land's creature?" "And that's what makes you human. How do you think the first human was born? Humans are hybrids of creatures of dark and light. But the firstborn humans had superpowers. Power no one can control. But with evolution, most humans lost their powers. Some are still left, those are known as hunters, but their powers are nowhere as strong as the firstborns." "So if Damon found out that I am a half-half hybrid, he will kill me?" "Without a doubt." First I couldn't be with my mate because he is a vampire prince and I belongs to a family of werewolves and now this. Fuck my life....... ------------------------------------

Z-BITES by Renaissance1111

[The Nano Watt 2023 Shortlist] [ONC 2021 Longlist] The world as Evren once knew changed massively from doing homework to fighting for survival in a zombie infested planet. Countries were wiped out within months some even days. Bringing a global impact on food and resources. But the infected wasn't the only thing Evren had to worry about. Her last group encounter had created a major target on her back when they found out what she had been keeping a secret. Surviving on her own after the tragic events that left her scarred, she realized the living was far more wicked then the dead. Which brought out a reluctance to trust anyone ever again.... Until she wakes up in the arms of a boy she thought was dead. ✨Round One Qualifier in Open Novella Contest✨ ✨Round Two Qualifier in Open Novella Contest✨ ✨Round Three Longlist in Open Novella Contest✨ 🥇Fist Place in Mystery/Thriller:Lucky Charm Awards(May 2021) ✨Longlist in The Nano Watt 2023✨ ✨Shortlist in the Nano Watt 2023✨ #ONC2021 | Prompt 38 | Prompt 2 ‼️Content/Trigger Warning: Contains gore, violence, some strong language.

Lunar Virus ✔️ by its_really_not

Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258!

What Lasts in Us by monstrousbeauty

**COMPLETED** Several years after the world succumbed to a deadly strain of measles that turned those infected into crazed, mindless cannibals, Charlotte wanders the backroads alone, content with surviving day-to-day. That is until she crosses paths with Nate and his daughter, Emmi. Emmi is not and cannot be vaccinated against the disease, so the only way to protect her and give her some kind of life is to reunite her with her estranged mother in a quarantine zone on the other side of the country. Charlotte wants nothing to do with Nate or the girl who looks like her dead sister. She does not want to go through the grief of losing people again if something bad was to happen. And something bad does happen when Emmi is kidnapped, and it is no one's fault but Charlotte's. Through this obligation alone, Charlotte feels like it is her responsibility to get Emmi back, to right her wrong. In helping Nate pursue his kidnapped daughter, Charlotte inadvertently allows herself to feel again, to care for those other than herself. But with the clock ticking, Charlotte's new found family may just end up like her own, dead and destroyed, if Emmi is exposed to the disease that her father tried so hard to protect her from.

Fortuna Verto by Luminaeris

Third Book of the Body - Celesi Veil Trilogy A girl's luck changes when her world changes upon itself, sending her back and forth between a world she knows and another that shouldn't even exist. Working with her parallel self from that other world, the two must adjust to their alternate form when visiting the other's world, as they search for a way to escape the chains of misfortune they are bound to. **{While this story is the conclusion of the trilogy, it is also fully capable of standing alone in its own light, taking place on a completely new world far from Celese that returning readers will be otherwise incapable of recognizing. However, it is highly recommended to leave the final "Trilogy Chapter" until the entirety of the trilogy is completed.}** _____________________ Arcs (Much like the first book): * Arc - / Chapter 0: Teaser * Arc 1 / Chapter 1-10: Breaking the borders of existence * Arc 2 / Chapter 11-20: Lost between uncertainties * Arc 3 / Chapter 21-30: Learning secrets from the void * Arc 4 / Chapter 31-40: A coordinated approach to chaos * Arc 5 / Chapter 41-50: Unmaking undesirable futures * Arc 6 / Chapter 51-60: Exploring the expanse of the self * Arc 7 / Chapter 61-70: Beyond the scale of worlds * Arc 8 / Chapter 71-80: Collision of historical futures * Arc ∞ / Chapter ∞: Endlessly beyond eternity (Trilogy Chapter)

Anomaly by Emily_the_wroter

First book in the subject 001 series Subject 001 was never meant to exist. Born from E.D.E.N.'s most ambitious experiment and abandoned just as quickly, Ellie is the girl whispered about in locked rooms and classified files-the mistake too powerful to control, the anomaly that terrifies even the people who created her. After a lifetime of confinement, Ellie escapes into a world she was taught to fear, only to discover it's nothing like the sterile halls she grew up in. With Ava, Mia, Noah, and Liam-kids just as broken, brilliant, and dangerous as she is-Ellie begins to unravel the truth behind the experiments that stole their childhoods. But E.D.E.N. isn't done with them. Hunted by the Governor and the adults who shaped them, manipulated by shadows wearing familiar faces, and haunted by the dark promise Henry whispers about destroying E.D.E.N. together, Ellie is forced into a deadly game of survival where trust is a luxury and power is a curse. As her abilities grow-and her memories return-Ellie must face the truth buried in her bloodline: She wasn't created to save the world. She was created to end it. And in the fight between what she was made to be and who she chooses to become... only one version of her can survive. ----------------------------------- W A R N I N G T H I S S T O R Y C O N T A I N S : → Mild Violence →explicit language → Mild Child neglect ------------------- H I G H E S T R A N K I N G S : 546 #dystopian 25 #Anomaly (most impressive ranking) 2 #powerfulgirl 6 #undergroundworld 2 #geneticengineering ---------------- S T A R T E D →18/8/25 C O M P L E T E → 10/9/25 WORD COUNT : 22.8k
