Chapter one of this coming of age apocalyptic story
A special thanks to my best friend Cici for being there for me when i thought I would be all alone in a world that I didn't understand.
And a special thank you to my mother for teaching me how to love everyone no matter their flaws.
All say, "How hard it is that we have to die" - a strange complaint to come from the mouths of people who have had to live.

Palinoia
I frowned. "If insanity is a mental illness then madness lies within us all. Think about it. We develop illnesses from different pathogens such as the common cold. That's an illness. Some people are just better immune to sickness than others..." 'All suffering in the world is born from one individual's incompetence.' Do you believe the saying is true? Has it ever crossed your mind that all the war, hatred and pain was the result from the actions of your own species? These were the type of questions that not only Sebastian Turner thought but haunted his very soul. When his once-beloved country's peace is interrupted by those who want to interfere with the peace, you immediately take action and defend because YOU are the victim, right? And of course, aiding your country automatically makes you a hero, correct? Well....if only that was the case.Complete

Dangerous People [COMPLETED]
They said that "Changing is part of LIFE.", at least that's what the CSD (Change and Save Department) used to say. They thought they created a "cure". A cure to save many people's lives from sickness, cancer, and all. Unfortunately... They were wrong. It was fine at first... However, their first test subject? It was for no good. Instead of a cure, they made a "virus". The virus is incurable for now. Many people protested against the CSD and the government. It changed.. but it was never saved... They said that once they bit you, in an hour the virus will spread throughout your body and kill you, then you'll be alive but not like you used to be. There are many survivors, but there are also many who have been turned into monsters. They call these monsters, "zombies". The CSD promised that they'll find a cure, but much-lost hope, lost hope for being alive, lost hope for survival. A 17 yrs. the old girl was in between that. Everything might sound and look horrible but she never lost hope for survival. "I'm running out of food.." she kept on talking to herself since there was no one but her. She saw a grocery store nearby so she checked it out if there were food, and fortunately, there was. She stuffed the food in her bag until she heard something. "Is someone there?" She asked, she hoped it wasn't what she thought about but there it was. The zombie's legs were twisted so it will have a hard time catching her. However, she never encountered that close. She stuffed the last food in her bag and ran. She ran to the girl's restroom. When she opened the door there were zombies! It almost caught her but fortunately, nothing happened to her. She ran back but there were more! "Please don't say this is how I'm going to die!" She said to herself. Is she going to die? Who will she meet? Will they survive this cruel world??

F*** Cancer, This One Did Us All In.
There's not a lot that can freak me out in this world. Only large animals with sharp claws, too many people touching me, bullies, hives, horror movies, sitting underneath fans or lights or anything that dangles from a ceiling, glass or wooden bridges, my mother, mosquitoes, public situations, taking a shower with nobody in the house, taking a shower with too many people in the house and crocks. Oh, and zombies. Zombies is definitely on that list. It's almost a shame too, that I have to race through a city packed full of them to find my missing family. Packed full of zombies, by the way, not crocks. (Although I don't know which situation is worse.) Now I have to not only keep my feeble body alive, but also protect (or be protected by) my two best friends in the entire world as we all try to survive in a city packed with the Dead.Complete
