[@PrettyWings] I'd love to do some plotting and hear your ideas. 

Let's put it to the others. Do you guys want in on what could go down, or do you want surprises?

I'm more of a 'like to be in the know' person xD But if you want to lay in surprises am fine with that <.< I've recently been making my way through The Walking Dead season 5 so pretty loaded up on zombie inspiration myself :P

I meant what would cause it.

I can't think of a solid reason why someone would choose not to fight in events such as these, save mental illness, or some great belief in the divine. You'd have to be very good to survive in an apocalyptic world without fighting.

I looked into the fight-or-flight response thing a little while ago, I can't even remember where I read that the flight or fight response can be 'broken' as such simply by the everyday stresses of modern society :S All links into stress somehow >.< I can't find the place I read up on this any more which is really frustrating but basically what I'm getting at, is a perfectly normal person could suffer from it, something goes wrong in the wiring and instead of fighting or running the person 'freezes up'  

Why not just go for the original 'flight' rather than a 'fight' person? Either the flight or freeze things can eventually be overcome with a little bit of help. Just considering she has been on her own, I'd imagine being someone that would rather run away from the infected rather than fight them could be enough of a reason? :S
