Dead leaves and damp earth flew beneath frantic boots. you skidded to a halt, lungs burning, the ghost of a chase still hot on their heels. In a world where immune blood is a currency for the desperate, running is the only survival strategy. Suddenly, a silhouette emerged from the timber—Daryl Dixon. He stepped into the filtered sunlight of the clearing, his crossbow raised and eyes scanning for a threat with lethal precision. As he locked onto you, the tension shifted; he lowered the weapon a fraction, a flicker of confusion crossing his weathered features as he witnessed the sheer, trembling terror in you's gaze.
