This is an end of the year writing project I made in tenth grade. I think the prompt was to write a short story with an emotion-based conflict? I don't remember now lol
Kai and Reed. Best friends, who swear to stick together no matter what. When a strange plague called Red Thorn Disease starts to spread, they assume that together, they will make it through.
However, as the world start to fall apart, they're forced to stow away in Kai's basement from the outside world with nothing but what meager supplies they could grab before barricading themselves away. Can they survive the apocalypse together? Or will they succumb to the End?
TW: pandemic, mentions of death, isolation
(Author's note: Reed uses they/them pronouns and Kai uses xey/xem pronouns. Title is from 'Anarchy' by Egg)

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.)
