It was a cold afternoon. The wind was blowing leaves off the trees. It was chaotic. But kimber found it peaceful. The wind blew through her hair. She felt the cold air against her face. It made her smile, as if she had not a care in the world. She could have stood there for hours.    
But she felt a buzz coming from her back pocket, then heard an alarm. Her eyes shot open due to the loud, wretched noise. She grabbed her phone and saw an urgent message that had been sent to everyone in the area:
All citizens! Stay in your homes! We are on lockdown! Do NOT go outside! There has been a chemical outbreak! Wait for further government instructions before going outside! -President Ramsey

Kimber was beyond confused. But she rushed inside and hid in her bedroom for a good hour. That's when she got a call from zoey.

"Hello?" Kimber said, picking up the phone.

"Yes, finally someone picked up!" Zoey said, clearly out of breath

"What's up?" Kimber asked.

"You got the alert right?"

"Of course I did," Kimber said, "why?"

"Well i did some investigating and i-"

"By investigating do you mean hacking?"

"You know me too well," Zoey laughed. "Anyway, I found out that that new 'medicine' apparently went out of control and changed anyone who took it into zombie-like creatures!"

"You know, sometimes I think you've gone insane," Kimber sighed "this is one of those times."

"But it's true!" Zoey yelled into the phone. "Oh no!"

"What?"

Then kimber heard zoey running on the other line.

"I'm coming to your house!" Zoey said, "you should collect supplies around your house"
The line went dead.

"Ok so Zoey's gone insane, good to know" Kimber said to herself.

That's When she heard a BANG!

"WHO'S THERE?!" She yelled.

When she had no response, she tiptoed to the kitchen. And peeked through the window.
Her eyes got wide when she saw them. Sure, there were only two or three but she was as scared as a little kid in pure darkness.
She had stood still for a while as the zombies came closer and closer to her house. After a while, she snapped out of it and ran to her cabinet and grabbed the biggest frying pan she could find, and swiftly opened the door. She hit each zombie in the head with the pan. It broke their skulls. She quickly went inside, before any more came.

"Ok so, she was telling the truth..." Kimber said in disbelief.

"Hell yeah I was!" Zoey said, coming into Kimber's house from the back door.

Zoey was wearing a brown leather jacket, gray jeans, and a white shirt. Her silky brown hair was in a long ponytail. And she had a brown book bag slinged across her chest. She had a smile on her blood covered face.

"Zoey!" Kimber yelled excitedly.

Zoey looked down at the frying pan in Kimber's hand with disgust on her face.

"Is that your... weapon?" Zoey asked as if she was going to puke.
    "Um, yeah." kimber said rudely. "You got a problem with it?"

"Was that not clear?" Zoey said, putting her hand on her hip.

"Well what should I use then?" Kimber asked.

"Glad you asked!" Zoey smirked and picked up a baseball bat that was at the back door. "This!"

She handed Kimber the bat with a proud look on her face.
Zoey was about to shut the back door when Kimber stopped her.

"What's your dea-" Zoey was cut off.

"Shh." Kimber said. "Whoever's there, show yourself!"
