The city was in ruins, with buildings destroyed and streets overrun with the undead. The group quickly realized that the rumors of a safe haven were false, and they were on their own. They set up camp in an abandoned hotel, fortifying the entrances and gathering supplies.

As days turned into weeks, the group encountered other survivors, some friendly and some not so much. They also discovered that there were different factions of survivors, each with their own agendas and beliefs.

One night, while they were gathered around a campfire, they heard footsteps approaching. The group quickly got into position, weapons at the ready. To their surprise, the person who emerged from the darkness was a young woman named Sarah.

"I'm alone," she said, holding up her hands. "I'm not here to hurt anyone."

The group was hesitant at first, but they soon realized that Sarah was telling the truth. She had been traveling alone for weeks, trying to find a safe place to rest.

"You can stay with us," Jake offered, offering her some food.

The group welcomed Sarah into their makeshift family, and they continued to explore the city, always on the lookout for supplies and other survivors.
