The night sky was a canvas of crimson and orange as the flames devoured everything in their path. The once peaceful town was now an inferno, crawling with the undead. Among the chaos, Sarah and Jim fought their way through the horde of zombies, their military training the only thing keeping them alive.
"We have to keep moving!" Sarah shouted, her voice barely audible over the roar of the fire and the guttural growls of the zombies. Her eyes, fierce with determination, scanned the surroundings for a way out.
Jim nodded, his jaw set in a grim line. "Captain Lee is waiting for us at the extraction point. We can't let him down."
As they pushed forward, they were joined by Zara, a survivor they had met earlier. Despite the terror around her, Zara showed no signs of fear. "The alleyway up ahead is our best bet," she suggested, pointing towards a narrow passageway that seemed to lead away from the worst of the flames.
