apocalypse monster parasite suspense zombie

SV-7: a parasite that hijacks the brain, sending the victims who don't die of the infection into a spiral of delusion and deadly rage. It's spreading like wildfire, and the death toll is rising. With billions dead, survivors are suddenly  thrown into a world with no time to run, and no one to trust. 

But that's not even the worst of it. If the survivors even had a fraction of hope that the horror would be over with the death of 90% of the planet, they'd be dead wrong.

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.

The city breathes decay. A miasma of rot and despair hangs heavy in the air, clinging to the crumbling buildings like a shroud. Within the dilapidated apartment complex that serves as the backdrop to our story, something far more sinister lurks. A parasitic infection, born from the shadows of unchecked scientific ambition, is transforming humans into grotesque parodies of themselves - monstrous creatures driven by primal urges and a hunger for flesh. Into this nightmare stumbles Luna, a young woman previously bound by debilitating physical limitations. But the very infection that ravages her neighbors also grants her extraordinary abilities - the power of movement and speech, a strength beyond comprehension, and a terrifying control over the very parasite that threatens to consume her. The world she once knew, confined to the confines of her own body, is shattered, replaced by a maelstrom of violence and survival. Armed with a katana - a symbol of her newfound power and defiance - Luna navigates a landscape of horror. Her journey is not merely a desperate flight from death, but a relentless struggle for control, for identity, and for survival. Her path intersects with Lucca, a fellow resident of the building, who finds unexpected strength as a reluctant ally. Together they face not only the hordes of infected monsters, but also a shadowy private scientific group that seeks to exploit Luna's unique abilities for their twisted experiments. This is a story of metamorphosis, a brutal and beautiful transformation. It is a descent into darkness, a journey through a landscape of fear and violence, where hope is a fragile flame flickering in the face of unrelenting horror. Prepare to witness the rise of a warrior, born from the ashes of despair, a heroine forged in the crucible of survival, ready to confront not just the monstrous horde, but the deepest darkness within herself. The fight for survival is only the beginning. The true battle lies within.

What Lasts in Us by monstrousbeauty

**COMPLETED** Several years after the world succumbed to a deadly strain of measles that turned those infected into crazed, mindless cannibals, Charlotte wanders the backroads alone, content with surviving day-to-day. That is until she crosses paths with Nate and his daughter, Emmi. Emmi is not and cannot be vaccinated against the disease, so the only way to protect her and give her some kind of life is to reunite her with her estranged mother in a quarantine zone on the other side of the country. Charlotte wants nothing to do with Nate or the girl who looks like her dead sister. She does not want to go through the grief of losing people again if something bad was to happen. And something bad does happen when Emmi is kidnapped, and it is no one's fault but Charlotte's. Through this obligation alone, Charlotte feels like it is her responsibility to get Emmi back, to right her wrong. In helping Nate pursue his kidnapped daughter, Charlotte inadvertently allows herself to feel again, to care for those other than herself. But with the clock ticking, Charlotte's new found family may just end up like her own, dead and destroyed, if Emmi is exposed to the disease that her father tried so hard to protect her from.

The Altered. by _fiinch_

guys please don't read this anymore lmao i write totally differently now💋 _________________ In a future where humans are genetically modified -- 'altered' -- at the age of sixteen, the world has been, until now, a safe place. Without changing a person's personality, undergoing the Alteration perfects their appearance, IQ, and even their immunity to diseases. No human passes the age of sixteen without being Altered. In the blink of an eye, things change. An ominous message is sent out to all of those below the age of sixteen, providing precise instructions that suggest they flee. Simultaneously, a deadly virus starts to spread all about the world, attacking only the Altered -- every human over the age of sixteen. The virus eats at the modified human brain, and soon the Unaltered begin to realise that the Altered are losing their minds. Home is no longer safe. Friends and family turn on one another, losing control of their own minds and bodies. The Unaltered aren't safe. Even if the virus isn't attacking them, the ones with the virus are. Set on a pristine, futuristic Earth, this is the apocalypse like you've never seen it before. (Rated mature for graphic depictions of violence and mild language.)

A Different Virus - Laura's Story by CrystalScherer

This is a second view point from my original story - A Different Virus - Heartfire. I highly advise reading the original book first. Intro: Laura was a happy child without a care in the world. She loved her parents and life was perfect. Nothing seemed like it could go wrong. People started talking about a bad flu that was spreading and sending some into a coma. Her parents grew worried and stocked the house in case of a pandemic. Months later another virus appeared. Her family was shocked when the news people started reporting that zombies were actually real and not just part of a horror movie. They were appearing in every country. Her parents reassured her that none of the zombie sightings had been anywhere close to them. Her life is turned upside down when her father ends up in hospital with the bad flu and mother exiles her upstairs for her safety. She was never allowed downstairs again. Weeks pass and the streets become deserted with the exception of the red eyed zombies that wandered around. One night she notices a swiftly moving figure with glowing blue eyes in the street below. Should she call out or remain silent? Is this fleeting shadow something that can help her or could this mysterious figure be even more dangerous than the zombies themselves? ---------------------- Ranked #1 Apr 10, 2018 (A huge thank you to all who read and voted!)

The End by Borahae_ARMY_BTS

We all were hiding in random places, apparently any place we could find. There were a ton of zombies, the whole place was full of them. Many people from our group were lost to the virus. Muffled voices, blurred vision and heavy breathes were heard. The ship which everyone had longed for soon arrived. The plan was to run to the ship and never look back. The ferry was anchored at the harbor and on the signal, everyone ran for their precious lives, not daring to look back. Some people couldn't make it in 'The End' . The ones who survived were the last of us. Will the people make it in time? What hardships will they encounter along the way?
