What happens next? You can use your imagination and create any ending that you want. Post the ending that you have created on your blog.

1. I looked around the room. Nothing seemed unusual, but then.... "Blarghh." there was a zombie standing around the corner.

2. I knew it was going to be an unusual day when my mom came into my bedroom and said "there's a zombie apocalypse." and added " you should start packing we leave in an hour.".
