Survival is more than air and water when you're being hunted by the undead. Worst yet, when you caused it. 
    
    Willow ascends into what she believes is an answer to prayer, leaving the harsh realities of the world below behind her. But when she arrives onboard Proc 1, nothing is as it seems. She's quickly indoctrinated into the system by her mysterious rescuers, only to learn that she's been promoted to Lead Physicist in the NAMOS program-BioTic Corp's Top Secret protocol on genetic decomposition and mutations. 
    
    The name on file is not her own, but someone else's. Cloaking herself in this new identity, she marvels at the vastness and complexities of the first floating civilization. Her curiosity is cut short as her advanced training in molecular cloning begins. This only drives the knot deeper into the pit of her stomach. It's only a matter of time before she's discovered as an imposter.
    
    The further she digs, the harder it is to decipher the truth from lies. SIND is not what everyone believed it to be. The new world government wasn't trying to save mankind; it was attempting to control it by curing death. 
    
    There's just one problem; no one survived the treatments, until her. With a potential cure pulsing through her veins, will Willow be able to stop the impending apocalypse before she's turned into SIND's next science experiment?

The Hollowing by MartinNeue

After a deadly contagion reduced the world's population into mindless, undead monsters, the ruins of America still teem with activity, as some of the dead have regained their intelligence and created their own society; one free from the living's touch. Now, more than a decade later, survivalist extraordinaire Liam Fenix undertakes a harrowing escape from the uninhabited island that has been his prison since before the outbreak began, only to discover that he is the sole survivor of the civilization he left behind. He is not alone, however, as reincarnated bounty hunter Leah believes that Liam holds the key to reversing the pandemic that created her race. Armed with their survivalist expertise and following traces of the past, the two must traverse the wastelands together and bring back life to an otherwise dead world, even as they are pursued by a tyrant who does not want this plague to end. ------- Top tags to date: #1 in Gritty 12/21/2022 - 1/11/2023 ------- New chapters will be posted on Mondays, 4:00-6:00PM EST.

Immune by AmyJohnson895

*THE UNEDITED VERSION* Beware of typos, errors, and general mistakes. This is a very, very rough draft. "I live in a place called Compound 4. We are one of ten different compounds placed at strategic locations around the US. It's been thirteen years since the virus overtook humanity, turning about ninety percent of us into zombies. I'm not sure how it started exactly; that's classified information. I do know that in order to save what was left of the human race, the president at the time took a bunch of really smart people and kids and relocated them into new 'protected' cities. My father was one of those really smart people. I was only five at the time, but I knew what was happening." Within the walls of the compound, Jay makes stupid mistakes, mistakes even she doesn't understand, putting everyone inside at risk. All because she can't shoot someone. All because she misses the wind in her hair, the flowers on the hillsides, the sound of crickets at night. All because she's different, the only person untouchable by the Virus. When the mistakes begin to duplicate, and a girl shows up who knows her name, everything begins to change in Compound 4. Highest rank in Science Fiction: #9
