On The Road Again (Zombie Apocalypse Quest)

[Mad Oracle]

Your alarm clock blared, and soon your hand came down upon it like a hammer. Another day, another eight hours of soul crushing work. Better than being homeless, but you wouldn't mind having a large mansion in the rural areas. It would definitely beat the suburban one story house you've got, but time for another job.

Waking up, you shed your PJ's before stepping into the shower. To your shock and subsequent cursing spree, it's fucking cold and you nearly fall flat on your ass.

What the hell happened to the hot water? You had it set on hot, shouldn't it be warm and relaxing instead of tit-freezing cold? Relenting, you take a cold shower to just wake up. A shitty way to start a shitty day, and you've still got work in two hours.

...

After getting dressed and having breakfast consisting of bacon, wheat bread, and eggs, you were seeing the morning news to see if anything interesting has happened.

"In recent news, casualties from the Evergreen Mall are still coming in." You didn't hear anything about that, so you kept listening as the newscaster spoke. "Twenty-three year old Frederick Johnson was found after being missing for three days, devouring a cat behind the mall." A picture of the man in question was up on the screen, showing a bald man wearing a Jersey Saints T-Shirt.

"Bo~oring!" You say as you turn the TV off, before turning to get ready for work. But a scream from outside caught your attention, and curiosity had you by the reigns. Looking through the peep hole, you noticed someone was fighting a group of people off with a shovel.

Mechanical Engineer won the coin flip, now let's get started.

...

Deciding 'fuck that', you decided to close the blinds and make sure none of them were going for your house. The first thing you're doing is grabbing your Revolver from the dresser, some ammunition, your toolbox, and the emergency med kit in the pantry. There was something nagging at the back of your mind, like you were forgetting something important for your escape.

Snapping your fingers, you realized your car keys were still hanging next to the front door. Grabbing them quickly, you ran to the garage before shutting the doors and loading your stuff into the car. Toolbox was in the backseat, med kit was in the back along with some clothes and dry foods you were able to grab. It wasn't much, but it should keep you alive in the days that come.

Opening the garage door, you got into the car and turned the key. Once the engine was started, you hit the pedal to the metal. The road to your left led to the town's exit, all you needed was a clear path and no problems.

...

After a few hours of driving, you were just about a mile away from the town's exit. But there was one problem, one that was keeping you from leaving the town of Evergreen Hills and screwing you over.

The bridge out of town was blocked up by a bunch of cars that had the same idea you had, and it looked like you couldn't fit even a bike through it. You came too far to give up now, besides you could make it out of town within a few hours of walking...

Or you could find an alternate route, perhaps that'll do the trick.

What do you do?

...

[] Ditch the car, try to walk your way through the pileup.

[] Find an alternate route through the...
-[] Dirt Roads
-[] Highway Exits
-[] Fuck it, go around the bridge. River can't be that deep, right?
