House on the side of the road.

From Create Your Own Story

You pull into the driveway of the house. The front yard of the home is overgrown, and it looks as if the place hasn't had any upkeep done in years. Still, there are a couple of cars in the drive and it's just far enough outside the suburban center that it might be safe.

You make your way to the front door with Melanie in tow, and push the front door open and listen inside. There's not a sound, other than the rain falling through the trees behind you. You go in slowly, the floorboards creaking under your feet. You creep through the house expecting the worse, only to find that the entirety of the two bedroom house is empty.

In the kitchen, you find a note on the table that reads: "Mom, if you make it back, we went to the quarantine zone. Come meet us there."

Love, Sara.

You lock up the doors and windows, draw the curtains tight in one of the bedrooms, and sit down to rest.

"What now?" Melanie asks.
