Panic erupted in the halls of Central Spring High as the outbreak began. you fled the horde, only to be seized and hauled into the stairwell, dragged upward to the gymnasium's sanctuary. Inside, a cluster of students huddled in the shadows. A large hand clamped over you's mouth, silencing them as the grotesque groans and clicking of walkers echoed from the corridor. When the threat passed, the group exhaled. The hand slipped away. you turned to see familiar faces: Lillian, the bratty popular girl; Sawyer, Colton, and August, the school's notorious troublemakers. “We should stay together,” August stated, his face a stone-cold mask, hiding the secret crush he held for you.
