Jessica brushes a strand of hair behind her ear. “I’d like to stop at my house, too, just for a minute. I need to grab a few things.”
You give her a quick nod. “We’ll make it fast.”
Ryan stands in the entryway of his home, clutching his school bag, glancing from you to the staircase behind him. He follows you out, but he looks back through the open door several times, gaze lingering on the hallway as if expecting his mother to reappear.
The three of you move down the street together, keeping low as the evening shadows deepen. You can hear sirens in the distance, the city growing louder and more uncertain with every step. When you reach your house, you unlock the door quickly and usher everyone inside.
You gather all of your gear: rifle, sidearm, spare magazines, knife, water, first aid kit, and clothes. The house feels empty as you move from room to room, collecting what you need for the road ahead.
When you step outside, the sun has nearly set, bathing the street in deep gold and blue.

What kind of vehicle does Elijah have?
Ford F-150 (Extended Cab, 4x4 Pickup).
It’s tough with high ground clearance, able to roll over debris or push through flooded streets. There’s plenty of room for cargo and extra passengers in the cab and bed. The downside is its poor fuel economy and the attention it draws. Thieves know a loaded truck is valuable. The big size makes maneuvering tight corners or dodging stalled cars a challenge.
Ford F-150 (Extended Cab, 4x4 Pickup)Honda CR-V (Compact SUV).
This one blends reliability and fuel efficiency. It handles slick or uneven roads well with all-wheel drive, and there’s a decent amount of cargo space for its size. It’s easy to drive and can slip through traffic. Still, the storage isn’t as generous as a truck’s, and with three people and gear, it can get crowded. Ground clearance is only average.
Honda CR-V (Compact SUV)Chevrolet Impala (Full-Size Sedan).
Unassuming and common, this sedan doesn’t draw any extra attention. It’s comfortable and has good speed, with a surprisingly spacious trunk for supplies. Navigating city streets is easy. On the downside, its low ground clearance means any flooding or debris could stop it cold. It’s not built for off-road, and the trunk won’t fit bulkier items or extra passengers in a pinch.
Chevrolet Impala (Full-Size Sedan).Jeep Wrangler (Two-Door, Hardtop).
It’s great on rough terrain, and if you need to climb a curb or bounce over broken pavement, this is the way to go. It’s also easy to fix and common enough for spare parts. But storage is tight with three people, and the ride is loud. It burns fuel faster than you’d expect for its size.
