The Socially Anxious Little Zombie Forced Outdoors
by 浪里淘浪
Lin An, plagued by severe social anxiety and obsessive cleanliness, rarely ventured outside, preferring to spend his days indoors, shopping via his smartphone and ordering takeout.
As the apocalypse descended, his frail body inevitably succumbed to the virus, transforming him into a zombie.
First Attempt:
The irrational, starving zombie Lin An, driven by a bloodthirsty frenzy, screeched as he opened the door.
Outside, the scene was gruesome with bloodstains everywhere, scattered remains of gnawed limbs, and various items dropped in haste by those fleeing.
Quietly, he closed the door.
Second Attempt:
Hearing human voices outside, the famished zombie Lin An opened the door again, ready to pounce on his prey.
Upon opening the door, he locked eyes with five residents stealthily scavenging for supplies.
Intimidated by their five pairs of terrified, piercing stares, Lin An quietly shut the door again and hid himself inside a cabinet.
Third Attempt:
Finally, hunger triumphed over his social anxiety and cleanliness fixation. Wearing a mask and gloves, he stepped outside.
In the neighborhood, he found fresh 'food', happily dragged it home, cleaned it thoroughly, and prepared for a hearty feast.

The aliens kill every human they catch, or in rare cases, put trackers on them to discover their hidden villages. When Natalie is caught in an ambush, she is unexpectedly released. But there is no tracker. The Saursunes have an entirely different motive this time.

Run. Don't look back.
When Natalie is trapped in an alien ambush, she is unexpectedly released. The first human to ever be let go.
The Saursunes invaded centuries ago, and everyone knows that getting caught is certain death. Natalie is confused but grateful to be alive. As a porter, one of the few humans with the rare ability to teleport between special crystal formations, she must leave the safety of her desert village every day to help gather food.
When other villages increase their raids on the Saursunes' farms, the aliens retaliate by hunting down every human they can find - except Natalie's group. Instead of trying to kill her and those helping her, they bring them food instead.
Is it a trap? Or something else? Natalie isn't sure, but one thing is certain: the Saursunes aren't done with her yet.
