Today Jurin's morning alarm was a little diffrent, instead of his usual phone ringing it was the disturbingly loud knocking on his door.
"ugh, who in their right mind is that" Jurin sighed, a faint voice replied "someone is in there right? please open the door". It seemed like a female voice but suddenly it went quite. Jurin now fully woken up went near the door, at that instant the door came falling down followed along with a deafening cry "ZOMBIES."
"What? What are you on this early?" Jurin asked angrily. "Just take a peak outside" the lady responded while getting herself together. He went outside, in a single gaze he started trembling, slowly drifting his head towards the lady he questioned "this is- is real?"
What Jurin saw was a man like body standing outside the gate of the appartment, The horrific part was the absent forehead with blood spilling at an alarming rate. It looked dead while at the same time alive. "That thing is very real" in a horrified tone she continued "I- I sa- saw it eat a women alive, it is coming for us now." Jurin picked up a bag and said "let's escape."
"Our best bet would be to jump from that window, its far enough from the zombie and close to my car." "Okay, let's go."
Jurin jumps down first and dashes towards the car followed by the lady. She was surprisingly fast but they both make it safely. The lady starts the car, shifting the gears she speeds towards the road. "I am Alice by the way, um if you have a phone try making calls, mine didn't work." "Nah, there's no signal here too."

This seemed like the start of a apocalyptic era, the buildings were painted in blood, corpses were decorating the lanes and the zombies were flooding the human settlements. 'I still can't truly comprehend this, am I in a simulation?' Jurin thought in his head. "So, umm, I didn't really plan much and have very little to no supplies and my car won't run forever. I will try and get to any survivors before I run out but what about you, would you like to continue with me?." "I- I don't have any other option so yes I would like to go with you and finding other survivors will raise our chances of survival." Jurin replied hastily.
Driving aimlessly they wondered through a city without much problems but soon as they reach the next city, They realized how crazy the situation was. "WHAT, the whole bridge is covered by zombies" Jurin exclaimed. "The zombies must have entered our city from here." "So this like their spawn point?" "We don't have time to think about that, think about how to pass that bridge, maybe we could turn ba-" Jurin intervened "umm, Alice a horde is approaching from the back."
"SHIT. NOW WHAT. Maybe we can run through them?"
"The heck? Is that a zombie breathing flames? What in the bizarre shit is that." Jurin said but he didn't looked scared rather amused by it. He continued "What to do now?"
"We have two options:
1: turning on the car and autopiloting it towards the bridge, I can't confirm but if the car noise attracts the zombies we can safely scale the cliff and swim 'I hope you know how to swim' but seeing how a zombie can breathe fire, I won't be surprised if they can live underwater.
2: rush in the bridge and see if we live or die"
