It was a late Sunday afternoon, the setting sun was showing, the cicadas chirping, it was April in Jefferson City Missouri, and in the busy city you could see in all of the traffic, the bustling city streets, that one 22-year-old woman was currently haggling in a local convenience store... Her name is Eri Kojima, of Japanese American descent... now not much people know in Jefferson city know about her is the fact that she is an avid collector of anything to do with the military and weapons, taking after her Japanese American father who served in the army during the late 1980s in his late 20s and got out around 1994, he was a weapons collector and after he passed away he had all of his collection grandfathered to her or what he hadn't sold yet anyways. Eri was an avid hunter and survivalist who had only recently moved from Rolla to Jeff City for better living conditions and business as the next week she would be opening her very own gun store in the ground floor of her two-story building since she had gotten her FFL passed, she only had to receive the shipments of ammunition and weapons the following week and set them up in the store over the next week before she could open. As her collection is quite small consisting of around 30 firearms 14 of which grandfathered and another 2 modern pistols she got for conceal carry you could say she is not such a huge collector but she has all of the fun toys...

She was arguing with the owner Tom Blake over the fact that he's charging a whole 3 dollars more for iced bottled coffee than what she could get down the street at Kwikshop when all of a sudden they saw through the glass a car drive up to the front of the store and crash into a tree at the end of the parking lot; "HOLY SHIT!" they both said in unison and quickly tom took up the landline phone handle off the receiver and dialed 911, While he was doing that Eri quickly rushed out of the store forgetting to pay saying as she ran "I'm going to go see if they are alright ill pay in a second!"

Eri rushed out of the store and ran up to the crashed ford sedan to see if any survived arriving at the right side of the hood she looked inside to find the driver buckled in through the broken glass with the steering wheel caved inside of his chest with blood everywhere, something that would obviously kill someone since the airbag didn't deploy, what shocked her... No terrified her was that the man in the driver's seat was facing her with part of his neck bandaged biting and snarling at her like some rabid animal shrieking and yelling incomprehensibly... At this point, she knew what was going on... And boy was she going to get the fuck out of there... Eri bolted to her Nissan d21 4x4 pickup truck unlocked it in a hurry, got in, started it and sped off to her mixed-use apartment and shop building, on the way she saw several police cars with sirens and lights on pass her by and even an ambulance..., She pulled up to the garage behind her store and proceeded to open it drive in and park and then close it, sighing and letting out a bunch of steam from her nose she finally rested for a split second and looked up to the sunroof of her truck "That was a mother fucking zombie wasn't it..... oh god... were all so fucked..."

She then checked the gun rack behind her seat and saw her Benelli super 90 there and grabbed it along with its 25 round box of flechette shells on the floor and stuffed the box in her duffel bag she brought with her in the passenger seat since she was just about to head home from the gym when she stopped to buy some coffee, with the bottle of iced coffee in her tracksuit jacket pocket and super 90 loaded and ready in her hands she opened the door of her truck and got out vigilant, locking the door of her truck soon afterward's seeing that there's no one inside with her she peeked out of the garage side door window to see the coast is clear outside... Readying her shotgun she opened the door and quickly locked it behind her before dashing as fast as she could to the back door of her shop quickly unlocking it in a frenzy and getting inside before locking the door behind her... "Holy crap that was even more intense..." Eri said while leaning against the wall panting to take a quick rest... Quickly around 3-4 minutes passed by and she started hearing gunshots outside and sirens blaring... Knowing she should stop resting now shit is starting to really get serious she started clearing room to room in her building, walking down her hallway she checked the metal-reinforced door on her right to her collection/storage room seeing it was locked, then passing by it down the hallway she opened the next door to her right leading to the other small hallway that leads into the store, opening the second door in front of her she went into the storefront, seeing that the metal shop blinds were all down and secured on top of the fact she knew that she had bars on the windows to prevent robbery she was finally relieved a little bit, going back to the first hallway locking the doors behind her from the inside she then went to the end of the hallway she climbed the stairs on her right to the second floor to check her apartment, going to her apartment space door she unlocked the metal door and went inside and checked all of her rooms, seeing no one broke in she closed the blinds and decided to go back downstairs and look over her inventory hearing all of the violence and chaos going on outside, but suddenly she remembered something that she was greatful for "I am so glad I didnt put up the signs outside yet as they were still being custom made, having that sign outside is basically asking for people to show up!" she said, with enough of that she

went downstairs and opened the metal-reinforced door and came inside her main storage and collection room, inside she checked everything and found everything in place, here's what she has:
