Dash into the bedroom
From Create Your Own Story
You don't have time for both grabbing the pistol and making your escape. You choose escape, dashing into the bedroom right behind Annabelle. You slam the heavy oak door shut behind you and lock it, then the two of you drag a heavy cabinet in front of the door. Annabelle grabs an axe and points to a corner of the room. You see a baseball bat leaning against the corner. You pick it up, gripping it tightly. The two of you wait with your weapons.
From outside come the sounds of gunshots, thuds, and screams. They continue for a while, then gradually die out. Soon there is nothing but eerie silence.
"Jack? Holly?" Annabelle calls out.
Nothing.
The nurse shouts again. The only response is a low groaning noise. You can't tell if it's zombie or human.
"We have to go out there," you say.
"What if there's a horde of zombies waiting right outside the door?" Annabelle asks.
"There's no way to tell," you sigh. You look at the nurse, then over at old Joe, who is blissfully unconscious on the bed. In a way, he's lucky.
Annabelle calls out again, but once more the only reply is the same unidentifiable groan. You begin reaching for the cabinet to drag it away, but the raven-haired woman grabs your arm. Her grip is surprisingly strong, and despite her slim figure her brown forearm is surprisingly muscular.
"What are you doing?" she demands. "We can't go out there until we know it's safe."
"We can't stay in here forever," you say. You try to break free, but Annabelle is too strong.
"Until we hear from Jack or Holly, we're risking letting a flood of zombies into this room if you open that door," says the nurse.
"What if they're hurt and need help?" you counter.
Annabelle's expression softens and she releases your arm. "That's a good point," she admits. "All right, it's your call."
