He takes you underground to a safe space, feeds you, offers you a place to sleep, and then announces that he'll take the first watch. It's not long before the peril of the jagged landscape has located you and your newfound protector and is scratching at the door. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhat transpires is a moment-to-moment struggle for survival--\u003ci\u003eThe Road\u003c\/i\u003e meets \u003ci\u003eDawn of the Dead\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003ci\u003eDaybreak\u003c\/i\u003e is seen through the eyes of a silent observer as he follows his protector and runs from the shadows of the imminent zombie threat.
