You also become uneasy, and share the suspicion. You're sure it's not zombies, as they'd not just sit back and observe you, and you keep your weapon up and ready to fire.

Just as you're coming into a clearing, from above you in one of the trees comes the click of the safety being turned off of a gun, and a voice comes from the tree.

"Drop your weapons and go back the way you came," the voice instructs.

From the side of the path, a second person raises up from a ditch they'd been hiding in, baseball bat in hand.

You can barely see the person in the tree, as they're mostly obscured by branches, which makes a clear shot difficult. The person on the ground has no noticeable weaponry aside from the baseball bat.

Based on the blood trail you saw at the campsite, you know that being unarmed in these woods would be especially dangerous as there is evidence of a zombie presence within the woods.

You have:

The two handguns with 10 shells in each (One for each you and the woman)
The five remaining shells
Several knives from your original kitchen implements

The woman immediately drops her gun and begins backing out of the clearing.

What is your course of action?
