To call it a "virus" is a bit of a misnomer. It crosses closed borders, defies quarantines, survives incineration. But how else do you explain everyone around the world suddenly losing their memories?
Silva Kashanian is one of the few researchers still left capable of fighting the unknown pathogen. But an ominous chain of inexplicable accidents leaves her wondering if perhaps this pandemic isn't as natural, or as random, as the world believes.

When Earth Weeps | The World Enslaved By Virus || (COMPLETED) ||
Months ago, during a study tour to the Government Microbiology Department, a student accidentally broke a petridish with the engineered microorganism. Instead of reporting it, they hid it - the organism mutated into a deadly airborne virus. When the deadly virus engulfs the planet, three young scientists become humanity's last hope. In a frozen, abandoned world, they must race against time - and each other - to find the cure hidden deep within the ruins of what we once called home. But the earth does not forgive so easily. And sometimes, what we save is not what we expect. In this chilling tale of survival, sacrifice, and secrets, the question remains: When the Earth weeps, who will listen? Now, Aarya and her team must: •Develop a cure - find the missing link to stop the virus. •Explore the depths and uncover the incident . •Survive raids, betrayals, and human violence as civilization collapses.

A Different Virus - Laura's Story
This is a second view point from my original story - A Different Virus - Heartfire. I highly advise reading the original book first. Intro: Laura was a happy child without a care in the world. She loved her parents and life was perfect. Nothing seemed like it could go wrong. People started talking about a bad flu that was spreading and sending some into a coma. Her parents grew worried and stocked the house in case of a pandemic. Months later another virus appeared. Her family was shocked when the news people started reporting that zombies were actually real and not just part of a horror movie. They were appearing in every country. Her parents reassured her that none of the zombie sightings had been anywhere close to them. Her life is turned upside down when her father ends up in hospital with the bad flu and mother exiles her upstairs for her safety. She was never allowed downstairs again. Weeks pass and the streets become deserted with the exception of the red eyed zombies that wandered around. One night she notices a swiftly moving figure with glowing blue eyes in the street below. Should she call out or remain silent? Is this fleeting shadow something that can help her or could this mysterious figure be even more dangerous than the zombies themselves? ---------------------- Ranked #1 Apr 10, 2018 (A huge thank you to all who read and voted!) This story is copyright and built from my own imagination. This book was a special request from someone who helped me a lot. This viewpoint has less action than the original.

The Virus Within (Original rough draft)
Back by popular request! The 2017 rough draft of The Virus Within! (Caution: Contains massive plotholes that were fixed in the polished The Virus Within Series. Grammar issues are present, particularly missing commas.) What do you do when you are one of the infected? The virus in my blood is trying to steal my humanity. It alters my very thoughts and reactions. It taunts me by tempting me with desires that it planted in my brain. These bloodthirsty desires would lead to my demise if I ever gave in. I have more in common with the zombies than with humans at this point. Even the fallen zombies accept me as one of their own. Blood is required to retain my grip on sanity, but the sweet-smelling blood from humans is a short path to madness. Human blood is to be avoided at all costs. Humankind around the world was driven close to extinction by the sudden appearance of the zombies, yet small groups of survivors constantly manage to appear and put my control to the test. -------------------------- This is a standalone zombie book. It has nothing to do with A Different Virus. I wanted to try a book with an easily irritated main character and a nutcase secondary character. This book has a slightly darker outlook at the beginning than my usual stories, but it has some humor further along. Definitely not a horror story, although it has its share of action. 4 updates a week: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday! Copyright April 2017. All Rights Reserved.

Starve
Luna, a college student who suffered from emetophobia, gradually discovered that the fear that struck her life had become a deadly and contagious mental virus. The whole world now feared vomiting, and people had suddenly become overly obsessed with hygiene, refusing to procreate, avoiding food that seemed unsafe, unable to distinguish fullness from sickness, and were either dying from starvation or fear-driven suicide, leading to massive and dangerous world population decline. The only group of people who could live normal lives is the ones who had the vomit phobia before the pandemic began, and Luna is one of them. Though immune to the deadly mental virus, Luna's lifelong phobia took a different toll, slowly destroying the lives of those around her and putting them at risk, even as she remained untouched.Complete
The Day the Sea Rose
The tsunami was just the beginning. Triggered by unstable tectonic activity and intensified by rising sea temperatures, a catastrophic wave wipes out entire coastlines. But something older than the ocean is unearthed in the chaos. As floodwaters recede, survivors find bodies washing ashore-strangely intact, immune to decay, and slowly reanimating. Scientists trace the cause to a dormant pathogen, long trapped in Arctic permafrost, now released by rapid climate shifts. The virus is ancient. Aquatic. And it spreads through water. With communications down and the infection crossing shorelines, a small group of survivors must uncover the truth behind the outbreak-before the rising tide brings more than just destruction. #climatehorror #sciencefiction #zombievirus #permafrostvirus #tsunami #apocalypticthriller #ecoapocalypse #pandemicfiction #survivalstory #postapocalyptic #scientifichorror #waterbornevirusComplete

Quarantine
Mankind faces the worst pandemic in modern history. Raymond Roberts is an Englishman teaching English in Wuhan, Hubei, China. It's an underwhelming, mediocre Chinese city of twelve million people, with no notable distinctions to make anyone notice its existence, unless you happen to live there. Until that is, it becomes the epicenter of a viral pandemic outbreak that sweeps the globe. The city is on quarantined lockdown - the largest in human history. Raymond ignored the calls from the British Government when they offered him a chance to leave with other British Nationals. Like everyone else, he presumed the People's Republic of China is overreacting. Quarantined in his tiny one-room apartment, Raymond becomes restless and starts spending his time trying to work out what's going on, through China's restricted social media and the Internet. In doing so he draws unwanted, dangerous attention. A rat who gnaws at a cat's tail invites destruction. - Ancient Chinese ProverbComplete
The Altered.
guys please don't read this anymore lmao i write totally differently now💋 _________________ In a future where humans are genetically modified -- 'altered' -- at the age of sixteen, the world has been, until now, a safe place. Without changing a person's personality, undergoing the Alteration perfects their appearance, IQ, and even their immunity to diseases. No human passes the age of sixteen without being Altered. In the blink of an eye, things change. An ominous message is sent out to all of those below the age of sixteen, providing precise instructions that suggest they flee. Simultaneously, a deadly virus starts to spread all about the world, attacking only the Altered -- every human over the age of sixteen. The virus eats at the modified human brain, and soon the Unaltered begin to realise that the Altered are losing their minds. Home is no longer safe. Friends and family turn on one another, losing control of their own minds and bodies. The Unaltered aren't safe. Even if the virus isn't attacking them, the ones with the virus are. Set on a pristine, futuristic Earth, this is the apocalypse like you've never seen it before. (Rated mature for graphic depictions of violence and mild language.)
