《How I Survived (Zombie Story)》Chapter Twenty-One
Advertisement
I woke up and heard silence. We had been staying inside the control room, waiting for the storm to end.
Silence... The winds had stopped.
I sat up, looking at my group. The new people, including Sammy, well Alli, were still sleeping. Except for Jone, who was watching me.
I looked over at Ricko, who was leaning against the wall, coughing. He glanced over at me and gave me an assured wave. I waved back, and he coughed again, his shoulders hunched.
Jone had a shotgun in his hands, while he continued to stare at me. "What?" I whisper.
"Walkers." He mumbles.
"Where?" I ask.
"Around the van. The wind stopped. They know we're in here."
"Then we need to leave," I say in a sarcastic tone.
He motioned over to the new group. I shrug. "Are we accepting them into the group or something?" I ask, confused.
"Yes. But stay on watch." He commands. "Okay.." I grumble.
We wait for the group to wake. Miranda wakes up, yawning.
"Hey." She mumbles.
"Hi," I say.
"We survived another day." She says. I nod. "You okay?" She asks.
"I think so.," I whisper.
"Sammy- I mean Ali... Is she talking to you any?" Miranda asks.
I shake my head. She looks over at Sammy, who was up now, and standing near Beverly, drinking a bottle of water. "That chick is rude," Mirands tells me. "Beverly?" I ask. She nods.
"She didn't want to share the snacks she had in her backpack the first night we were here," Miranda tells me.
I rolled my eyes in my mind.
Jone grabbed a green backpack and walked over to me. "Where now, Captain America?" Miranda asks. I held back giggles.

"We should start making our way to the safe zone." He says, ignoring her comment.
"Where the crap is that at?" Miranda asks.
"20 days from here," Ricko informs.
"How do you even know that we will even be alive by then?!" I ask.
"We need to survive. We need to keep moving." Jone says.
I stood, facing him. "Are you sure? Because you're putting our lives on the line.. Why don't we just search for somewhere safe?"
"We should camp in places, and move the next day. And keep going." He continues.
"Unless you wanna split up." He says. "But I'd be taking the van, and you'd take 'Mr. I'm not sick over there," Jone says, motioning to Ricko, who was coughing his head off, and Lucy and Bella was sitting beside him, talking about how Kylia used to always tease them about different things.
Kyle was staring at Ricko, angrily.
"He's not sick," I say.
"And... How do you know?"
"I j-" Hunter cuts Jone off. "Back off of her man," Hunter says, holding my arm and looking at Jone. Jone shoots me a look. He lets out an annoyed breath and pushes past the both of us.
"What was he saying to you?" Miranda asks, standing, Olivia joined her.
"Telling me why we would try to make it to Ohio."
"It's in Ohio?" Miranda asks. I nod. "Hey, guys. Are we allowed to stick with you?" The guy named Todd says, cleaning his cracked glasses with his green shirt.
"Yea," I say. Marvin, his brother I guess, stands beside him. "Thank you." He says. "Anytime," I reply.
"Let's go!" Jone says from the door. I heard the startling bangs from the sides of the wall. We hurried down the halls, one at a time, into the van, Ali got in and Lucy shut the door. Me, Hunter and Jone jumped into the truck part of the camp truck.
We were back on the road.

Artisan
Hi everyone, really, really sorry for disappearing on you guys, illness lead to a deep depressive episode that I'm still struggling with. Been thinking about coming back to revamp/finish writing Artisan and noticed a kind reader pointing out my work has been stolen and published on Amazon. The offending novel is The Artisan by Jon Moremont - obviously a GoT fan who didn't even read the blurb properly and put a wizard on the cover. Just wanted to let everyone know that this book has nothing to do with me, and has no new content. Thanks, and sorry again - LF Superhero Litrpg Skills, level-ups, powers, crafting, and base-building. Releasing a chaplet daily, ~1,200 words. It is 2054 and unemployment is at an all-time high.

Justin, 20 years old and unemployed, has nothing holding him back, and since his government stipend will cover the expense, he signs up to play Imagitech's brand new game: A Time of Heroes. Justin has never been that into multiplayer games, but for a full-immersion virtual reality where he can play a Superhero, Justin is definitely in.

Re:Mento Mori
When Ryuji, a disgruntled salaryman, is supposed to reach an unfortunate end, he is instead thrust into a new world, inhabiting a body that isn't his own. Forced into a world filled with strife and death, can he claim freedom and happiness? Or will his turbulent new life only lead to suffering and pain? As with every time-loop story written by an amateur author, this is heavily inspired by Re:Zero. If I had to explain my book, I would say imagine Re:Zero, but the main character can actually fight people instead of just getting merked every time he meets someone with a weapon. The themes of this story are dark, so be forewarned. This is my first story so keep that in mind while reading it.

The Beauty Of The End
William was abandoned by his family and left with a mother who detests him. He is forced into a life of crime, stealing just to feed his mother and himself. But that changes when he's given an opportunity to turn over a new leaf in a world of magic, war and tragedy. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Beauty Of The End takes place in a fantasy medieval world where magic exists in multiple forms. William is a boy abandoned by his family and left with a mother who detests him, and at a young age is forced into crime just to feed the both of them. But one day he is visited by a knight order who tell him he has potential for magic. Listening to their words, he leaves to start a new life and train to become a mage like them. The Beauty Of The End updates every day and I'm hoping to push out 100+ chapters consisting off, at the minimum, five arcs. Sometimes there might be double uploads to make up for a break I might've taken. I have most of the story planned out in my head and am just writing down where I think the story should go. I have planned up to arc 2 and maybe some ideas for 3, but that's about it. Thoughts and criticism are appreciated, there's obviously going to be grammar and maybe spelling mistakes that'll I'll try to spot and fix. I might occasionally post chapters that explain certain parts of the world, e.g. lore, countries, organizations, species, magic etc.
