摘要

"Aftermath" picks up where "Dead Island 2" left off, following the story of four survivors who have managed to navigate their way through the zombie-infested streets of California. However, the survivors soon realize that their struggle for survival is far from over. With resources dwindling and the infected hordes growing stronger by the day, the survivors must band together to find a new home and rebuild their shattered lives. As they journey through the remains of the once-great state of California, the survivors encounter dangerous new threats, from rival survivor groups to mutated strains of the virus that threaten to overwhelm them at every turn. Along the way, they must also confront their own fears and weaknesses, as well as the moral dilemmas that come with trying to survive in a world gone mad. Through it all, the survivors hold on to the hope that there is still a chance for them to find a way to live in a world overrun by the undead. "Aftermath" is a story of survival, perseverance, and the unbreakable human spirit in the face of unimaginable adversity.

Chapter 1Prologue 01 : MC

Marcus Lee was born and raised in a small town in Texas. Growing up, he was a curious child who loved exploring the outdoors and tinkering with machines. His parents were both hard-working people who instilled a strong work ethic and sense of responsibility in him from a young age.

As he grew older, Marcus became increasingly interested in military history and strategy. He read every book on the subject that he could get his hands on, and dreamed of one day joining the armed forces himself. After graduating high school, he enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps and completed several tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan.

During his time in the military, Marcus saw things that no human being should ever have to see. He witnessed the horrors of war up close, and was forced to make split-second life-or-death decisions on a regular basis. He lost friends and comrades in battle, and came dangerously close to losing his own life on multiple occasions.

Despite the trauma he experienced, Marcus remained committed to his duty and to the ideals of the Marine Corps. He was a skilled fighter and survivalist, and his years in the military had given him a wealth of knowledge and experience that would prove invaluable in the post-apocalyptic world of "Aftermath."

However, Marcus also struggled with PTSD, which manifested itself in a variety of ways. He was prone to flashbacks and nightmares, which left him feeling exhausted and on-edge. He had a tendency to isolate himself from others, afraid that he would hurt someone if he lost control. And he was haunted by the memories of the people he had killed in combat, which left him feeling guilty and ashamed.

Despite his struggles, Marcus remained a fiercely loyal and determined person. He was willing to put himself in harm's way to protect his fellow survivors, and was always willing to share his knowledge and expertise with the group. He had a strong moral code and a deep sense of honor, which sometimes put him at odds with the more pragmatic members of the group.

As for nervous ticks, Marcus had a tendency to clench his jaw when he was stressed or anxious. He would also occasionally mutter to himself under his breath, a habit that he had picked up in the military as a way to stay focused and calm during tense situations.

Overall, Marcus was a complex and fascinating character, whose past experiences and personal struggles added depth and nuance to his role in "Aftermath." His strengths as a fighter and survivalist were matched only by his weaknesses and vulnerabilities, making him a compelling and relatable character for readers to follow.

Elden Ring: Miquella's Consort

(A/N: This is yaoi/gay/boy's love story, featuring the Miquella and Tarnished, in case you didn't figure. If you bitch about it, I'm coming for YOUR asshole instead.) I died, I met an Omnipotent being, and he granted me some wishes. Pretty cliche at this point, right? Can't get any originals in these times, am I right? But that's where the cliches stop. Why? Well, what do you think my wish was? To be overpowered? To have a massive, useless harem? No, god no. I hate harems, damn it! (Ahem ahem, but some worlds are exceptions.) So what was my wish? Pretty original, I wanted to be a Multiverse myself! Not as in own a Multiverse. But as in be a literal Multiverse myself! Pretty cool, right? But what kind of Multiverse did I become? Simple, I became a Parasitic Multiverse, where I would send pieces of myself to different Multiverses and copy their sources of powers and such to make myself even stronger than them! Comics like Marvel, DC, Invincible, movies like Transformers, Godzilla, Harry Potter, cartoons like Rick and Morty, TMNT, Kung Fu Panda, animes like Dragon Ball, Bleach, Naruto, and games like God of War, Assassin's Creed, Devil May Cry! I want them all, I want every power available in each and every one of them! So I sent my soul pieces to every one of them! But not as overpowered beings. Nah, that would be boring. I don't want to just copy their powers, I want to experience and venture around too! So what about this soul piece? What's it going to do, and what Multiverse will it go to? Doesn't the damn title make it obvious?! This is the tale of me, a reincarnated of no renown, upgrading to a Tarnished of no renown in the Elden Ring instead! But fuck the "in the search of the Elden Ring," I'm in the search of Miquella the femboy's bussy instead! Get some popcorn, drinks and snacks, cause it's time to hit the grind!

The Synthesis Wizard

In a world where elements lay barren and powerful wizards had abandoned their homeland a millennium ago to explore the multiverse, Sunan found himself reincarnated as a noble scion stripped of his title. This world, once brimming with magic and wonder, had fallen into a desolate state, and wizards had become mere legends. Sunan was acutely aware that after a thousand years, the elements would awaken once more, heralding the return of the wizards and ushering in a new era of prosperity. He understood that his path was clear: he must train diligently to become a wizard himself and survive until this glorious age arrived. “Resources are scarce?” he mused, determination flickering in his eyes. “Then I’ll just have to synthesize them myself.” With that thought, he activated the Synthesis Cube, a device that granted him the ability to combine materials into something new. This Cube was not just a tool; it was a symbol of his potential in this world, reflecting his status as a player in a game he once played. As he set to work, the Cube glowed with possibilities, presenting him with a myriad of options. He had a few basic materials at his disposal, remnants of his previous life and the knowledge he had accumulated from his past experiences in the game. Sunan began experimenting, combining herbs and minerals he had gathered. Each successful synthesis filled him with a sense of accomplishment, inching him closer to his goal of becoming a wizard. Days turned into weeks, and Sunan’s skills improved rapidly. He crafted potions, improved his understanding of magical theories, and honed his mental abilities through intense meditation practices. The Star Ring Meditation, one of the first techniques he mastered, allowed him to tap into the latent mental energy within himself, enhancing his cognitive functions and magical sensitivity. As he progressed, whispers of his endeavors began to circulate among the remaining noble families and the common folk. Some viewed him with suspicion, while others saw potential in the young man who dared to challenge the status quo. Sunan knew he needed allies. He began seeking out individuals who shared his vision—a return to the age of wizards. He discreetly approached the remnants of the nobility, the few who still held some influence, and began to forge connections. His reputation grew cautiously, and with it, the opportunities to gather resources and knowledge. He learned of hidden libraries, ancient texts, and artifacts that could aid in his quest. One fateful day, while exploring a forgotten ruin, he uncovered an ancient tome detailing the rituals of the wizards who had once thrived on this land. The pages contained knowledge that could accelerate his growth, including spells long lost to time. “This is it,” Sunan thought as he carefully transcribed the contents into his own notes. “With this, I can not only learn the spells but also improve my synthesis techniques.” As he delved deeper into the arcane arts, he realized that the key to his ascension lay not just in personal power but in understanding the intricate web of alliances and rivalries that defined noble society. He had to navigate these treacherous waters carefully. In the back of his mind, Sunan always remembered the impending return of the wizards. The time was coming when he would have to reveal his true potential and lead the charge into the new era. With each passing day, he grew stronger, more confident, and increasingly aware of the responsibilities that awaited him. The world was changing, and Sunan was determined to be at the forefront of that change—a wizard in a world that had forgotten what it meant to wield true power.

NieR Automata: Life's Meaning

In the face of the impending extinction of the human race, initiatives such as Project Gestalt and Project Snow White were believed by those involved to be the key to humanity's salvation. There were many more like it, all making use of the mysterious energy known as maso along with other elements foreign to their dimension. Project APEX, or the Augmented Progression of Evolutionary Xenobiology, was a privately funded venture that took a far different approach. Instead of using elements not native to the dimension Earth resided in, researchers attempted to synthesis a human carrying artificial genes derived from native biological material that displayed an innate resistance to maso. Humanity was wiped out long before any could see the result of the experiment but that didn't mean it never bore fruit. Abruptly awakened from a lifelong slumber with nothing but an AI as company, the young man born from the experiment takes on the name Apex and emerges from an underground lab unsure of what the future holds. *** art by...huh, I think the original artist might've taken down their account or the information I have is outdated so I'm not sure how to credit it. I'll just put my trust in the reddit post and say its from a X(twitter) user formerly known as @09_Ziezzzzz. Allegedly. I see some people put update schedule information here so I'll do the same. My current work contract plus schooling on the side keeps me pretty busy and since this is mostly me dipping my toe into something my friends do, I can't say I'm fully serious or anything like that about writing. I'm think three updates a week at most? That probably pushing it so two is the safe bet. As for the time of these updates, probably near the start of the week since those are my slowest days. Plus this won't be my only story so we'll just have to wait and see how I do. Update schedule currently looking like Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and an extra one over the weekends if powerstone goals are hit.
