    Sarah found a deserted house. She quickly locked the doors and windows, hoping to keep the cold and the zombies out. The house was her temporary sanctuary.

    Inside the house, Sarah found a fireplace and a few cans of food. She managed to start a fire and warmed herself. The fire also cooked her meager dinner.

    As night fell, strange noises filled the air. Sarah peered through a small crack in the window. She could see the zombies slowly making their way towards the house.

    Sarah decided to escape through the backyard. She found an old treehouse and a rusty shed. She quickly climbed up the treehouse to stay out of reach from the zombies.
