I headed North in to the wilderness to escape the bean wars taking place in the coastal cities. I managed to find food and drink while avoiding the zombies. I was beginning to feel pretty confident as I was looting another small village when I seen a Deer Stand near the woods. Yes! That's where you can find night vision goggles, I'd been looking for these for ages and it was beginning to get dark.
I climb up the ladders but sadly there was nothing in there. As I'm leaving I hear a zombie shrieking, he's wearing an Army uniform and running towards me. I scarper in to the woods, running for ages but he won't give in. I turn around, ready to fire and nothing happens, I check my pistol's ammo, it's full, I try again and still nothing. The zombie is now attacking me and knocks me to the ground. I keep trying to shoot him but the gun will not fire and I can hear a loud sizzling noise. Shit, is this zombie spitting acid at me? I keep trying to fire as the zombie breaks one of my legs, I'm losing blood and the sizzling is getting louder. My character is screaming and so am I. Then I realise what's wrong, I don't have my pistol selected, I have the flares selected, in my panic I'd been throwing flares without noticing. My player is almost unconscious and is shaking but I manage to aim the pistol and finally kill the zombie. I crawl away from him and for the first time can see the whole forest lit up with all the flares I'd been throwing, all of them making a sizzling noise.
I bandaged myself up, took morphine for the pain, and ate some beans. I'm low on blood but I think I can make it if I can find someone to give me a blood transfusion (or if I eat a lot of beans). In retrospect I should have climbed back in to the Deer Stand and shot the zombie while he climbed the ladders.
