All the windows were boarded up by the time we got there and all the cars had been left open and unlocked. We must have just missed the initial wave and wandered in around the time they'd all gathered over the other side of the compound.
Lucky for us - less so for whoever they'd cornered.
You never quite realise just how loudly people can scream until you expect them to be right behind you and instead see them being thoroughly disemboweled a good two or three kilometers away. In our case they were even closer than that.
We might not have worried if we didn't know what to expect after they finally killed the poor bastard.
They'd likely circle back around to the front of the compound to check for stragglers - that being us. Not wanting to die in the face of a slow and brutal demise makes you surprisingly creative. Within a minute or so of arriving we'd formed a human chain and pulled each other onto the closest roof.
Now we weren't safe by any stretch of the imagination but we were safer than before and had somewhat of a buffer between us and the innumerable snapping maws that had finished their prey by the time we'd shuffled away from the edge and laid ourselves flat to wait out the next wave.
Maybe someone inside could see us and might loosen a board enough for us to crawl inside.
