I don't know what plot twist to give my story, any suggestions?

Hello everyone! I'm basically really stuck on a story I'm writing. I know what I want to happen in it but I have no clue what ending or plot twist I can give it, heres some of it's story:

This story is a futuristic apocalypse scenario where everyone has a chip in their head (which is the cause of the "infection") and an important detail is that when you get infected you see all infected as human and all human as infected.

As for the story the mc gets attacked in the first chapter and got bit. When she woke up she was somewhere else, basically the second main character comes in and says that she saves the mc. The mc finds out she was bitten and hides it from second mc, and she doesn't seem to be suffering of any effects. Details later and they decided to go to the safe zone which is across the continent. The story is just them walking to there.

My original plot idea was for them to arrive at the camp and second mc gets shot because she was on the last stage of the infected. As for the main mc she was able to be saved since the infection spread slowly. I don't really know about this "plot twist" so any advice would be greatly appreciated <3

What tropes(or plot twists) do you wish to see more of/do you hate?

Hello everyone!! I'm having a bit of plot block. As in I really want to write but idk WHAT to write, or idk what plot twist to give. So I thought why not get everyone's thoughts about it? This can also be used as reference for people who's facing similar issues like me So here's what I'm asking!

What tropes do you wish to see more off or perhaps less of- I know the miserable feeling when its the same predictable trope which will make you loose interest, or when there's very little media about a really interesting trope! I always found tropes very interesting but when they're unique. For example I absolutely HATE the trope of glorifying sensitive stuff to make it a spicy romance, like even if its Bl or Wl its still weird. But I LOVE when it's friends to enemies(With slowburn, like I want them to slowly become enemies and stir up drama as the plot proceeds instead of at the first few chapters, like you get attached and feel the tension)

Another thing I have no ideas of are plot twists, like I see some of the most predictable plot twists that I can't even call it a twist, and it sucks because the ending or the story itself had so much potential! (I'm unfortunately in that category...)

Another thing I would love to hear your opinions about is what character types (like personality wise) would you like to see more?

Thank you so much for reading this and I hope all of you have a great day and or night! ^0^

Can someone give me examples of ways to make a 3rd dimension character?

I want to preface this first, I know how to make it... sort off... I remember that their need, wants and actions must contradict each other or in their dialogue, like they may say "I'm fine with whatever" and then later on say "No actually- lets not do that" or another example may be a desperate character who wants people to rely on them (or look competent) but want others to fix their problems.
You could be thinking, well you know the basics of it already so why are you confused? Well I don't get it. The examples I've listed now is something I heard a while ago. I get the concept and all but I don't know how to attach it to my characters. If anyone could give me tips or examples I would greatly appreciate it :)
Tysm for reading and have a great day/night :D

Hello, for context yesterday I downloaded the wrong file and opened it like an idiot, so the email I usually use is compromised. From what I could tell so far, that thing or whoever hacked me is only able to access stuff related to my email and not my pc since there was nothing else that changed in the pc itself or other accounts/apps I have. The hacking started this morning in my discord, the hacker sent messages to everyone in my contacts, some kind of scam, like can they change their topic omg. Anyways, In the morning it was only discord that was affected. I got the account back in the morning as well since it was paused for suspicious activity, and I deleted everything I downloaded yesterday and ran scans. There were a few viruses which were supposably removed. But now my discord got hacked again (can't even log in anymore lol) and they tried to take over this account (which got stopped because of security, they really don't learn.) I ran a scan again and nothing was detected this time. Anyways I'm not really asking for any help on the discord or email that is hacked because I can always get another, but what I am afraid of is that now it's inside my computer/pc or something. This email may not be important but if it gets into anything else, I'm pretty much screwed. I don't know what to do, I'm scared and panicking. At one point I was terrified that the hacker got my location and broke into my house while I was away (you can tell that I never dealt with hackers before). This is stressing me out. So if there are any ways to remove a virus or any advice, I would greatly appreciate it.
