This story follows a young Anthony Reed, a 19 year old man seeking for something to do with his life, other than being the maintenance guy and the primary caretaker for his eleven year old sister, Willow Reed. When Willow falls ill he must escape to the surface with a curious Lena Hansley to find a cure, or Willow will die. They must face the haunted and surreal forest to hopefully save Willow. Both Lena and Anthony forced to overcome their biggest fears. And who knows, maybe something even greater will come out of it.

« INTRODUCTION »


Only five years ago, what we know as our world today fell into a worldwide apocalypse. Nobody knows how, especially not Anthony Reed. All he knows is it caused a lot of heartache and suffering.


The surface became home to the creatures of the apocalypse and their brainwashed, now alien-like, psychotic victims. Five years ago, the remaining sane people joined together and decided to move underground, where it was mostly safe.


But it wasn't all fair. Only important or wealthy people were treated right. Everyone else was left in the dust, forgotten about.


The chapters in this story follow the events of Anthony Reed's life, five years after the apocalypse.

« Author's note »


Hey! Thanks so much for choosing this story, it really means a lot.


(!Just a quick trigger warning, the following chapters contain violence, mild abuse, hallucinations, ghosts, mental health issues, blood, alcohol, mentions of suicide and death!)


This is an original idea, so please be kind. Also, feel free to let me know how you like the story so far and if there are any grammar mistakes.

I'll try to post as much as possible.

If there are any cross references from other stories/movies/books it is completely coincidental. Thanks again. I hope you enjoy The Beginning of the End!

Let Mockingjay know what you thought about this chapter!

Heika van Walderveen: I had to get used to the style. It’s a lot of switching and getting back into the story of the characters. Also the different timelines were a bit confusing in the beginning. But once you’re used to it, it’s really quite original. The plot is good, but it’s only book 1 (out of 3), but so far so good...
