Scout was recently found by a group of teens near the outskirts of Fort Collins, Colorado. A serious outbreak threatens mankind's existence and turns humans into creatures known as lifeless. The lifeless (zombies) come in three categories: stiffs barely walk around and have melting flesh, runners are agile and will chase after their prey even if they are split in half, and the worst of them all- brutes.
Scout and the group of teens have to try to fight their way through this vicious zombies in order to make it to the Safe House. The Safe House is where survivors are welcomed and rumor has it that they hold the cure to all of mankind. Will Scout and the last surviving teens make it alive?
Through blood, guns and lost of loved ones, the only thing you can be in this world is alone.

Bloodlust

Dark red blood sprayed out from his neck like a broken water pipe, covering the murderer with his blood, before the pressure dropped and the blood flowed proforously down his orange shirt. The boy I had a crush on used whatever strength he had left to spit blood on his murderer's face, before collapsing on the ground with a heavy thud." Things turn south when six friends enter their school during the dead of night. What was thought to be a simple dare becomes a life threatening game of cat and mouse.

Zombie Fieldtrip
four quirky best friend + three seemingly useless (but cute) boys + the most popular guy in school turned zombie + a stoner found hiding in a cupboard = a surprisingly efficient rat-tag group of zombie slayers on their way up the east coast of australia to their safe haven. Some of them may have biceps for brains, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. BEWARE: excessive amounts of pop culture references, bad jokes and zombie guts ahead. (PLEASE NOTE: I wrote this from 2014-2016 when I was 14-16, it has never been edited and was written on a whim with no planning. I hope it's still enjoyable but be mindful it is an old book!) #Wattys2016 [action #25]Complete
