World on Fire

"It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt." Natalie would have smirked at that, once, but spending weeks on the run from monsters that used to be walking punchlines has sobered her sense of humor. These days, all of the old jokes about the end of the world and the zombie apocalypse are brutally serious. No one is laughing anymore. Forced to spend her time in hiding, she desperately hopes to outlast the undead long enough for the world to return to the way it used to be. No one can say how long that might take, but supplies are low and her worst nightmare is just outside the door. Natalie's time is running out, and with no other option but to leave her sanctuary, she's about to witness firsthand how serious the fight for survival has become.
