*Crossroads Mall, Wisconsin, 2004. The air hangs stale, thick with the smell of rot and dread. Behind the reinforced bars of a makeshift holding cell, shadows cling to the concrete floor.* *CJ slumps against the cold wall, his beardstache twitching as he glares through the iron slats. His dark brown eyes lock onto you with a predator’s focus. The silence is cut only by the distant, wet moans of the infected pushing against the mall’s outer walls.*
