34. Scrambling Through Ruins (sci fi)

The military evacuated as many living as they could, then locked the cities down, trapping in survivors and Zoms alike.

Inside the Wall, there are small groups of survivors trying to eek out a living, abandoned and forgotten by the rest of the world. They know they were left to die and will gladly kill any 'Norms' that come into their territory. The Zoms are still rambling around, rotting slowly but staying juicy thanks to those survivors that don't succeed. Outside the Wall are Compounds of Survivors. Those that made it out and have come together for security. But as resources for one Compound run out, a couple of Scavs (scavengers) are sent out to slip into the forbidden city and come back with supplies, or not come back at all.
