478 years ago, the world as we know it ended. Those lucky enough to survive formed one city, the Athanatos.
Some called us heroes. Some called us villains. Some refused to believe we existed. They hunted, killed, trapped, and kidnapped us. Millions of us died, but some went into hiding. We waited for the day to come when the Elxi, the city guards, stopped chasing us. That day never came.
Now we are ready. Ready to fight. Ready to die.
Ready to Shift.
My name is Kira Blanchard and I am ready.

Through Blood and Ash
Through Blood and Ash. What's left after everything burns? --------- They warned us. We didn't listen. Now the world is dead - and the dead are all that's left. The year is 6062, and humanity has collapsed under the weight of its own arrogance. A cure meant to save us twisted into something monstrous, turning loved ones into soulless predators with only one instinct: kill. Cara has lost everything - her family, her home, and the illusion that safety still exists. With a small band of survivors, she clings to life on the run, haunted by the screams of those she couldn't save... especially her brother. But when a desperate choice forces them back into the infected zones, Cara will have to decide what's worse: the monsters outside, or the guilt that's been tearing her apart from within. In a world where hope is dying and nightmares walk in daylight, survival comes at a cost - and not everyone is willing to pay it. -------------------------------- REWRITTEN I've gone back and rewritten this story from the ground up. As well as changed the name. The original had a strong foundation, but I knew there was more I could bring to it-more depth, more heart, and a better reading experience.

Without other purpose (Zoro x reader)
The world was in chaos, the outbreak had wiped over half of the population if not way more. The only thing left was a rugged world where you fought to survive another day without getting eaten by the dead or killed by the living. You had witnessed how cruel the people had turned so you chose to remain alone, not trusting another human fellow. But everyday left you more unclear on what you continued to live for, survive for. Days seemed to get easier to survive, but at the same time they turned hard to get by. You could think again, ponder the reason for your existence and purpose to continue. You didn't have anything anymore, everything once familiar to you was gone. But maybe life wasn't so one dimensional after getting a new traveling companion and leaving the brooding thoughts behind.![[1] Apocalypse: Third Rebirth](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/359868585-256-k543700.jpg)
[1] Apocalypse: Third Rebirth
What would you do when four men come into your life and completely turn it upside down?... All I wanted to do was hide away on my ranch with no one to bother me, but apparently, they had different plans. Luckily for them, this was not my first zombie apocalypse. If they learn to listen, we might just get out of this with our lives. If not, maybe I would finally be able to rest in peace. Li Dai Lu was born and raised Canadian in her first life. This meant that she was taught how to share, how to put others first and to keep the peace as much as she could. However, that all backfired in a spectacular way. Reborn in a new time and place, Li Dai Lu did her best to protect all those that she could from the zombies that were wiping out the human race. Unfortunately for her, those she rescued were not as grateful as they should have been. Killed by the very people she saved, she held her breath and waited for the calm, peacefulness of death. But the Fates were not too accommodating and our heroine woke up in her third life, a year before the zombie apocalypse. This time she would live life on her own terms, and to those that disagreed... well, she would have a few words for them. With four men at her side, she will shed the cloak of civility and become who she was truly meant to be. WARNING!!! This will turn into a Reverse Harem. Mature Content and Vulgar Language on board, and Rage Bait at the start.Complete

The Beta Horizon: A Post-Apocalypse Chronicle
When the sky bled for three days, humanity thought it was the end. It wasn't. It was the beginning. Now the world belongs to them - the Beta forms. Monsters born from human ruin, constantly evolving, learning, adapting. Each one carries traces of what it used to be... faces, voices, instincts. Some whisper names they shouldn't remember. Survivors hide among the wreckage of cities long forgotten, clinging to the illusion of normalcy. But every safe zone is temporary, every light draws something closer. As the mutated world stabilizes, a darker truth begins to unfold - the Betas are only a phase, and humanity's next evolution may already be among them. This is not a story of heroes. It's about what remains when survival replaces morality - and how far a person can decay before becoming the very thing they fear. This is not a story of heroes.

Before the Fall: Rebirth of the Cannon Fodder
She was never meant to survive the story. Qi Yue was just a forgotten name in a tragic novel-a fake daughter, cannon fodder, a girl who died early in a zombie apocalypse no one remembered. But when Lin Yue, a terminally ill girl from the real world, awakens in Qi Yue's body one year before the world falls, she refuses to meet the same end. Armed with foreknowledge of the plot and a mysterious space-type system called AURA, she breaks away from her twisted adoptive family, escapes the shadows of her past, and begins rewriting her fate-brick by brick, bullet by bullet. In a world collapsing under viral mutation and human greed, Qi Yue rises from pawn to player. With cold intelligence and burning compassion, she builds safe zones, tames the wasteland, trains warriors, and uncovers the devastating truth behind the virus-and her own existence. Alongside loyal allies like the reserved but unwavering Shen Jin, she fights back against corrupted power, monstrous mutations, and the very authors of the apocalypse. But survival is never enough. As war ignites and enemies close in, AURA evolves into something more than a system-it becomes family. When the final choice comes, it's not about who wins, but what you're willing to sacrifice for the world you want to protect. From forgotten cannon fodder to commander of humanity's last hope-this is the story of a girl who was never supposed to matter, and how she rewrote the end.Complete
