The memory continued.
The Hale family was still inside the estate.
The vehicles had been gathered near the exit, the remaining bodyguards were trying to clear a path, and beyond the walls, the world had already begun falling apart.
The Hale estate gate stood between them and the road.
It was the last barrier.
Once they got through it, they could finally leave the estate behind.
But getting there was proving harder than anyone had expected.
The vehicles moved forward slowly as the bodyguards tried to clear the area around the gate. The infected had already begun gathering outside, drawn by the noise coming from the estate.
Some stumbled against the walls.
Others wandered between abandoned vehicles.
A few had already reached the entrance.
The moment the first vehicle approached the gate, several zombies moved into its path.
"Stop!"
The driver slammed on the brakes.
Everyone inside lurched forward.
"What happened?" Veronica demanded.
"Zombies."
The answer came quickly.
