You wake up
on the couch of the 'resort' (your little joke to yourself) after a nice nap. Other
than chores, you have really caught up on sleep here. Your neck is twisted in
an awkward position, and unfortunate
trail of drool has dried across the corner of your chin. You feel thick
and foggy and crinkled in the brain, and your neck is aching. The tv is playing
some infomercial, too loudly. Your clothes are wrinkled into the shape of your
body and have the greasy feeling of human oils. You want a shower.
It is then that a vile scent hits you. You realize that you were awaken by a waft of this scent to begin with. Your body goes rigid. The scent is like… rotten broccoli… mixed with rotten eggs… mixed with a leather factory. You brain reels trying to define the odor.
You focus on barely breathing, moving your head slowly, and just slightly, tense to run. In the dim light of the infomercial flashing you see it standing there. One of the infected. It rocks slightly. Bad eyesight. You remind yourself that the news claims they have bad eyesight at this phase of the infection.

You
(either):
You jump up,
screaming “ZOMBIE!!!” to alert the rest of the camp. You sprint 0.25 mile at your fastest pace, to
get away.
The zombie
turns slightly. You have to get to the alarm bell 200 feet away. Sneak as quietly
as you can, crawling if you have to, to get to the alarm bell.
You have 24 hours from when you read
this email to complete this challenge.
