Description

IMPORTANT NOTE: I no longer support this couple due to recent current events regarding certain criminal acts. I will leave these fics up for posterity, because I know what it's like to lose access to stories. Still, please take note that this fic represents a moment in time and does not mean that I actively support this person or this couple. I will not be writing any more of this pairing in the future.

It was the year 2039, and Yifan wasn't quite living anymore.

But that didn't mean he loved Zitao any less.

Foreword

Tags: Zombie!AU, Established relationship (married)

Warnings!: Character death, depictions of gore/violence

Influenced in part by the videogame Last of Us. (I only just realized that)

Yifan never had to come back. He could have taken their car and never looked back.

But he had sworn a vow, on that wedding ring, on that warm smile, on those loving eyes.

...and although Yifan's not quite living anymore, that doesn't stop whatever is left of him from remembering -

Find him.

Protect him.

Save Zitao.

Chapter 5: Im not an exo l though I have any idea why im here but im gonna say I would never regretted reading this. This is legit awesome n mind breaking n heart wrenching. The unexplainable feelings of looming yet dull hope each words is giving is so superb. Im mind blown, no wonder this is featured. This is amazing n thank you for writing this xD

Chapter 5: Hi, I'm aware this is old but I really want to know more about the Changed!! What are they really and how did they come about? My own theory is that Earth was so polluted by people that the Changed came about as a way to get rid of evil humans and once the process was done, the Changed turn to trees so that Earth can restart again - sort of like the Noah 's Ark story you know?? But there are always survivors like Tao who became darker because of their ordeal and so, evil will continue to propagate in the 'new' world, hence it's a cycle that continues and Earth will restart again somewhere in the future. But it's just my theory!! I'd love to know what the original thought behind the Changed idea!!
