Joshua Anderson, a queer millennial from the suburbs outside of Los Angeles, is driving recklessly through a canyon pass when he swerves off of the road and into the bottom of a ditch. Dazed and struggling to stay coherent in his smoking car, Joshua sees a pale, faceless creature appear. His final memory before blacking out includes the sensation of a strong grip wrapped around his leg, pulling him in the direction of burning flames. When he wakes up in a hospital room with his Evangelical father muttering prayers at his bedside, Joshua finds himself forced into a desperate journey to uncover whether what he saw in the foothills was a near-death hallucination, a final warning from God, or a horrific new discovery plaguing the foothills he has called home. With his best friend, Sarah, and his ex-boyfriend, Vincent, by his side, Joshua learns to navigate the anxieties of his mind and the terrors of the outside world as he uncovers a new reality that no one is prepared for.

*All characters are made by me. This is a copyrighted work!* *Currently editing* Nathan Hart is the last person left alive in a charred, dystopian Los Angeles. Alone, he manages to survive for four years in a land of animated death. Most of the world's population has been decimated by a brain eating virus, mutated from COVID 19. It causes its victims to attack and cannibalize other humans, and it keeps them moving even after their heart has stopped beating. While looting a store one day, Nathan stumbles across Nigel, a tourist from Texas who's been hiding from the virus for four years in a Long Beach hotel. Unfamiliar with the city of angels, he petitions Nathan for help. An unlikely friendship begins to blossom between the two males as they make their way across the city in search of a map that will guide Nigel home. Will the pair succumb to the hungry monsters that now control the planet? Or will they be steamrolled by something far more dangerous; love? Trigger warning ⚠️ This is a queer love story between two men. This story contains drug us, gore, foul language, talks and references of homophobia, dismemberment, death, and sexual activity. It's not recommended for anyone under the age of 18. *Currently editing*
