This is your 27th exploration since you first joined Fins group a month ago. You have no idea where you are. No one knows where anyone is. The undead attacked the main power and radio stations around a month ago, just as you were joining your group. Nothing works; cellphones, televisions, radios-- Anything electronic. None of it works unless you can make your own solar-powered energy, or a map to get around.

You're not in charge of weaponry, so you get no weapons besides the ones you find when exploring. So, until you find small abandoned bases with corpses around, you use your fists and things around you like twigs, branches, large sticks, rocks, small pieces of metal, etc. At first, you usually doubt it but find a way to defend yourself and live eventually.

You arrive at a crumbling, cement building that seems familiar. You're checking a clipboard for areas you were assigned to scavenge from, and you find yourself in front of one of them. It's a large building, surrounded by what seemed to be a moat. There's a stone bridge that allows you to cross over, and you do.

About halfway there, you suddenly hear a crash somewhere ahead of you. You stop dead in your tracks and stare at two zombies. One of them is an ugly green, a rotting colour, with dark hair, and it's batting at another zombie with its half-hanging, blackish-greenish hand. The other zombie looks pale. It's got a blonde, almost bleach-colored hair. He doesn't look half as dead as the rotten one, but he's definitely an undead. 

You're watching their little battle going on for about 2 more minutes when the pale one notices you, and it points with a loud groan. The ugly green zombie starts limping towards you, and the pale one follows close behind. They're not as fast as a living being, but they're quick. You run your way around them, just feet away from being snatched by their grimy hands.

You enter the building and stare at your clipboard. You need to collect logs, food, and water. You search the building, just at first glance. It's empty. There's almost nothing. Opened cans of food are scattered along the floor. You slowly make your path across to the other side of the building and find 3 cans of food, a log of wood, and a water bottle. You get to the back of the building, realizing this was an abandoned refuge once most likely owned by other survivors, whose corpses are scattered along the floor, half-eaten. You figure you need to leave quickly, knowing that it's not going to take long for the virus to take effect on the bodies.

Grabbing what you could, you start to turn back, checking off your clipboard. You turn around a few times, searching for the back exit when on your third spin you stop in front of the pale zombie. He's not attacking. Quickly in fear, you stumble backward onto the ground and fall on your lower back with a low-pitched squeal. The zombie stares at you for what seems like minutes before it reaches out its barely rotting, cold hand, offering to help you up.

"Are you okay?" He asks.
