After a week stranded on the ship amid a zombie outbreak, the group has moved all supplies to a private storeroom and is trying to survive with limited contact to the outside world. The protagonist calls home, learning zombies have reached their village, where family members barricade themselves for safety. At night, while keeping watch from the cockpit, the protagonist notices the city is dark and silent. Suddenly, a thud under the ship signals something striking the hull. Alarmed, they call Susie and Benny from the recreation room and check the hull surveillance, spotting a massive shadow moving underwater, suggesting a new threat has emerged.
