Hershel "Lucky" Davis is a scavenger, the only one in his area. His job isn't that complex, really; all he has to do is find things in the abandoned and burned villages around the cities of Corton and Biggol. Things get a bit dicey, though, when a young girl named Rosemary Berg enters the picture. Giving Hershel no chance to say no, she makes him take her on as an apprentice.
Through many trials for both Hershel and Rosemary, the pair find out about a place that still has water: a place known as 'paradise.' Now, the only challenge is to trek through the miles of wilderness it takes to get there.

Release Me by anna_rose01

Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.

Brassworks by OfficerManKorn

There is a saying in the Badlands: There are many ways to get to the Brassworks, but all leave in a box. The Old World is gone, smashed beneath the heel of the great mountain, King Abaddon, many generations ago. A new civilization has risen from the ashes, struggling to survive in the new and harsh landscape. At the edge of a poor governance, in a dying town, a young blacksmith just ran afoul of the law. In some cities, that would mean a trip to local jail or court. In the Badlands, that means the Brassworks. Theo Palmer can't recall why he ended up in the hellish prison, but he knows he'll never leave. The Warden needs workers for the Forge deep underground. The drums of war are beating to the north, and only a twisted weapon from the past can save the people of the County. But there are many powers in the Vale of the King. Some seek to preserve the peace, while others aim to end it. Some hunger for justice, while others hunger for flesh. Theo has fallen into a violent world of monsters and metal, and his very survival depends on which side he chooses.
