Zombies

How would people feel if the death is following them everywhere? It is going to be like a serious game, which has a strict rule of be brave and smart or follow your destiny. The destinies that humans might get from zombies are either get bitten and altering their nature or die by their attack. It is not easy to take any decision in this case because if there will be 5% percent of mistake the percentage of your death is going to be 50%. Therefore, humans must be more logical and careful in taking decisions yet, that doesn’t mean they give up of taking decisions because there is always a choice. For the people who want to survive, the first question appears to their mind is how they will be protected. Each person will play this serious game as how he/she prepares to survive. There are logical factors must be covered from the people to make sure that they will live at least more time to deal with the situation. Those factors are how to defend, how to be isolated and how to obtain needs.

The first thing to survive from zombies attack is to fight them and know the weakest point they have. For example, if the zombies fear is the fire, people must try to find a way to get more fire as much as they can to defend their selves. It is impossible to know what zombies’ weakest points are, unless facing them at least once; therefore, weapons are so important to defend against enemies even if people don’t know their power. By comparing to military weapons, in this situation humans must create their weapons and being creative in using them. There are two types of weapons the first is called melee for short distance and the second called range for longer distance. For example, people might use glass bottles and gas as bombs even if it doesn’t have the power of bombs but it could at least grab zombies’ attention temporarily to make the way clear. Cars also can be considered as melee weapons in this case because they can be used to crash zombies. Each type has its own situation for use. Regular people must know when to use the melee and when to use ranges because, the majority of range weapons have loud sound, which can attract a group of zombies but for melees majority don't have loud voice which means you can kill zombies without attracting a group of them. In this path humans will keep their nature safe and they will survive against zombies attack.

Weapons are so helpful for humans’ survive, but they are not enough. Second thing that people must find immediately is a place, which can isolate them from zombies to keep them safe. After getting weapons, trying to find ideal shelter is not a completely risk and the way is much easier. Size of shelter is necessary, because they might find another humans who survived and in need for help so bigger shelters are better. Humans must ensure zombies are not able to get inside by checking zombies who surround the shelter and kill them quietly. Moreover, humans must not attract zombies’ attention from inside the shelter. So people have to close lights at nighttime, cover all windows with panels or thick papers and never let any loud sound emerge. The more creative they are the more chance they will have to survive. For instance, humans might dig inside the shelter in case to avoid unfortunate coincidence if happened. If zombies could enter the shelter they have another shelter hides them inside their shelter.it is an idea that lead regular people to survive. Shelter will be humans’ second world, which isolates them from zombies’ world and it reduce the level of anxiety from humans to think more logically in how to survive.

Shelters must include enough food to assist humans to survive. Leaving the shelters is considered as a high risk; for that reason, people have to cover food and drink for longer periods. Also the food must have specific qualities such as doesn’t need to use a lot of gas to be cooked and doesn’t expire fast. The best choice for humans is canned food like the Tuna. Humans might not able to cover huge number of food inside the shelter. In this case they have to be creative; for example, they must find a path to get a covered place as storage for food and drinks. Gas stations’ markets are good if humans attract zombies’ attention then conquer it and cover it. It has some risk to deal with, yet it will guarantee humans will get enough food to survive for longer time. Furthermore, humans must not waste the food so they have to use it to survive not to fulfill their needs because it is riskiness to obtain more. Food is significant to expand regular humans life expectancy .

To recapitulate, surviving of zombies’ attack is not that easy and humans must deal with it in great and precise strategies. There are three main factors that ensure humans will be safe to create their plans. These factors are weapons to defend, shelters to be safe and food to survive. Those factors consider as first three steps guide humans to survive. In my point of view, only smart people who have clever plans will survive, yet the plan it self will never complete without those three factors and good luck.
