The days passed, and Violet began to settle into the routine of the safe house. She helped the group with chores like cooking, cleaning, and keeping watch. They had all become a tight-knit group, and they looked out for each other.
One day, while on a supply run, Violet and one of the members, a woman named Sarah, stumbled upon another group of survivors. They were huddled in an abandoned store, looking scared and desperate.
Violet and Sarah cautiously approached them, not sure if they could be trusted. The other group looked just as scared, but they welcomed Violet and Sarah with open arms. They introduced themselves, and Violet was surprised to find that there were other survivors out there.
The other group consisted of a man named Tom, a woman named Kelly, and a teenage boy named Max. They had been on their own for weeks, and they were running low on supplies. They had heard rumors of other survivors, but they had never met anyone until now.
Violet was happy to meet other people, but she couldn't shake the feeling that something was off about this group. They seemed too friendly, too eager to trust. She wondered if they were hiding something.
As they talked, the group heard a loud noise coming from outside. They looked out the window and saw a group of zombies approaching. The two groups quickly banded together, fortifying the store and fighting off the zombies.
They worked together seamlessly, and Violet was impressed by how well the two groups worked together. They had different strengths and weaknesses, but they complemented each other well.
After the zombies had been taken care of, the two groups decided to stick together. They had a better chance of surviving as a larger group, and they could help each other out.
Violet felt relieved to have found more survivors, but she still couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. She didn't know what it was, but she knew that she had to keep her guard up.
As they walked back to the safe house, Violet thought about the new group. They seemed nice enough, but she couldn't help but wonder if they were hiding something. She decided to keep a close eye on them, just in case.
