Calvin the zombie searches for food. Horribly, the undead feed upon the living!... Although, in a pinch, a PB & J will do, if you eat it messily enough.

------------------
Violet sat on the rooftop, looking out at the city. She knew that she had to keep moving, to keep searching for a safe place, but she couldn't help but think about her past.
Before the outbreak, Violet had been a college student studying biology. She had dreams of becoming a doctor and helping people. She was passionate about her studies and spent most of her time in the lab, conducting experiments and analyzing data.
But everything changed when the outbreak occurred. The world she knew was gone, replaced by a nightmare. She had lost everything and everyone she cared about.
Violet had been on campus when the outbreak started. She had heard the screams and the sounds of chaos, but she didn't know what was happening. When she went outside, she saw the zombies for the first time.
She ran back inside the lab, hoping that she could find a way to protect herself. She barricaded the door and started to gather supplies. She knew that she had to find a way to survive.
Days turned into weeks, and Violet remained holed up in the lab. She had managed to create a makeshift biohazard suit, but she knew that it wouldn't protect her forever.
One day, she heard a knock on the door. She was hesitant to open it, but when she looked through the peephole, she saw a group of survivors.
They were in need of supplies, and Violet had plenty to spare. She opened the door and let them in. They quickly became friends, and Violet felt like she had found a new family.
But their happiness was short-lived. The zombies had followed them, and they were forced to flee. Violet had watched in horror as her new friends were torn apart by the undead.
Since then, Violet had been on the move, trying to survive. She had seen more horrors than she ever thought possible, but she refused to give up. She had to keep moving, keep fighting, and keep surviving.
As she looked out at the city, Violet knew that she couldn't change her past, but she could control her future. She had to keep moving forward, no matter what horrors lay ahead.
