apocalypse contamination infection survival thewalkingdead twd virus zombies

It was not the end of the word - it was just the end of a world everyone used to know. 
Everything had changed since the so-called Solanum virus broke out at the end of August 2013. The blood-borne disease caused everyone infected to die before they rose from the dead with a voracious appetite for human flesh. The virus spread across the globe rapidly. A month was all it took to turn the world into a goddamned place that was taken over by the undead.
  
  This story is about Joyce Violet Parker, a twenty-six-year-old woman from Kentucky that tries to survive in an apocalyptic world that was brought low by a global zombie infestation. 
  
  The plot is a mashup of facts I got out of the book "The Zombie Survival Guide" by Max Brooks, "The Walking Dead"(TV series and computer game), "The Last of Us" (PS3 game), zombie films I've watched and my imagination.All Rights Reserved

Death is only the Beginning (EDITING) by A_Sinful_Writer

The Wildfire Virus. That's the illness the eggheads have called dubbed that has spread alarmingly fast all over the world. No could figure out at first how and where it came from or how even spread so quickly. I was on leave, visiting brother in Boston when the infection hit. Yesterday, the world was normal with its own conflicts. The next, millions get sick, hospitals are overwhelmed, and any sort of space was converted into a makeshift hospital to handle all the sick. On day 2 the sick died and awoke attacking the living. I tried to get out of the city, but the military closed off every major access point and now I'm trapped within, along with millions of undead. I must get out of the city with any means necessary. Winner of 28 awards including: Unknown Story, Best Cover, Random, Voted King of Action, and Voters Choice

if we survive by -eightiesflick

ORIGINAL STORY The world as we know it has become infested with bloodthirsty corpses.

It was a miracle, until they started killing everyone and everything with a heartbeat. The world went into total chaos. Ashton Fitzgerald and his family had to fend for themselves until a cure was found for the infected. Two years after the outbreak and the infection only grew, this was the world now and all they had to do was survive. Ashton's parents didn't get that memo. Nathalia Colman was separated from her family the day of the outbreak and had been on her own ever since. She never came in contact with another human being until she stumbled upon a boy... Nathalia and Ashton team up to survive. ⚠️contains sensitive content, be warned⚠️

The Virus Within (Original rough draft) by CrystalScherer

Back by popular request! The 2017 rough draft of The Virus Within! (Caution: Contains massive plotholes that were fixed in the polished The Virus Within Series. Grammar issues are present, particularly missing commas.) What do you do when you are one of the infected? The virus in my blood is trying to steal my humanity. It alters my very thoughts and reactions. It taunts me by tempting me with desires that it planted in my brain. These bloodthirsty desires would lead to my demise if I ever gave in. I have more in common with the zombies than with humans at this point. Even the fallen zombies accept me as one of their own. Blood is required to retain my grip on sanity, but the sweet-smelling blood from humans is a short path to madness. Human blood is to be avoided at all costs. Humankind around the world was driven close to extinction by the sudden appearance of the zombies, yet small groups of survivors constantly manage to appear and put my control to the test. -------------------------- This is a standalone zombie book. It has nothing to do with A Different Virus. I wanted to try a book with an easily irritated main character and a nutcase secondary character. This book has a slightly darker outlook at the beginning than my usual stories, but it has some humor further along. Definitely not a horror story, although it has its share of action. 4 updates a week: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday! Copyright April 2017. All Rights Reserved.

The Risks by EmJayRey

*****THIS STORY IS CURRENTLY UNDERGOING A MASSIVE REWRITE - FINAL WORK IS CURRENTLY BEING POSTED AS A NEW STORY ON MY PAGE - UPDATES SPORADIC ***** "You can't tell me there isn't something here worth risking everything for." [New Adult Apocalyptic Romance] Summary: Most of the population is dead, some have turned into vicious, crazed creatures who want nothing more than to eat you, and a small percentage are left to try to survive. Nothing is the way it was. With not much more than a pistol and a vague idea of what she's doing, Claire Harrington ventures out into this new, unforgiving world with only one real goal: to keep her younger sister safe. The odds are against her, until she runs into Parker and finds herself reluctantly accepting his offer to help. Trust is a fragile thing. Humanity is a construct. Love is a weakness. But these are the thoughts of a survivor, and she's beginning to wonder if surviving is all she wants. Maybe she wants to live.

WalkerZ - A Zombie Apocalypse Story by TheOrangutan

As a scout for what remains of the government in a post-outbreak world, Merryn is sent to investigate an old naval supply depot in a nearby city but finds so much more than zombies. ***** A year after a virus leaves the world infested with shambling zombies, those who remain attempt to rebuild a shattered country. Supported by her friends and colleagues, Merryn forges a path through the post virus landscape, finding other survivors, and searching for anything that could help everyone survive. The best and worst of humanity still live, but things take a turn as nature plays another card: a young woman could be the key to everyone's survival as one variant after another changes the behaviour of the walkers, once again threatening the scattered remnants of humanity as they teeter on the brink of extinction.

Project X by BeautyWithATude

"A virus" that's what they said it was, just a virus... What virus you know that causes slow walking, flesh eating, rotting flesh of the undead to rip you to shreds ? Can you answer that? In the midst of a sudden zombie outbreak, a young girl finds herself navigating a world plunged into chaos. As she struggles to survive, she forms unexpected alliances, confronts her deepest fears, and discovers her own strength amidst the darkness. Along the way, she grapples with the moral dilemmas of survival and the haunting question of what it truly means to be human in a world overrun by the undead.

Our fight /The Last Of Us. by Multiverse_girlie

Violet was born in the apocalypse, where mold infects people and makes them go crazy and turns them into zombies, and they have only one goal, to destroy the human race and take over the world. Violet was captured by Fedra, when they discovered her condition and Fedra holds her and does the most horrible things to her, to test their theories, to see if she really is immune to the disease that is destroying the human race and little by little, Violet loses herself and after a while she doesn't recognize herself anymore, when she looks in the mirror she only sees a girl, with an empty look in her eyes, whose soul seems to have left her body and only leaves a shell, of the girl she once was. Daliah is a 38 year old woman in the apocalypse and lost her son to Fedra, when her son was barely two years old and therefore not old enough to remember his mother and since the day that Fedra took her son from Daliah, the woman has only 1 goal and that is to find her son and kill the people who took her son from her, just because her boyfriend at the time, thought she was not fit to be a mother in the apocalypse and thought she was going to neglect her son, but Daliah will not rest, until she puts a bullet through the head of the man who took her son, and all the people who helped him, and Daliah only knows one emotion, anger, nothing else, not since her son was torn from her arms. But everything changes when Daliah meets Joel Miller, a man who lost his daughter the day the world ended and has been closed off ever since and barely speaks to anyone except her and a woman named Tess and through a stupid misunderstanding it happens that Joel, Daliah and Tess have to take two girls to the fireflys and those girls are Ellie and Violet and they might just change the course of the world.

THE RISKS by EmJayRey

"You can't tell me there isn't something here worth risking everything for." [New Adult Apocalyptic Romance] Summary: There are some things that you can't outrun. That becomes all the more obvious when the world is ending, when there's nothing left but the feral creatures that were once people, consumed now by a virus that's made them cannibalistic and ravenous. It might just be easier to end it all, but Claire still has one last thing to fight for. Her younger sister. And she intends to keep her safe, no matter the cost. So, with no other options and her sister in tow, Claire ventures out into the dangers of this new, unforgiving world in search of safety, security, and answers to some long burning questions. The first two things -along with some new, unexpected questions- she finds in an unlikely place: a stranger who she's become indebted to. She has a feeling he can help her answer all her questions, if she can allow herself to fully trust him. Trust, she thinks, is a fragile thing. Humanity, a construct. Love, a weakness. But these are the thoughts of a survivor, and she's beginning to wonder if surviving is all she wants. Maybe she wants to live.
