Rain sheens the cracked asphalt, reflecting a sickly, bruised twilight. From the main street, a low, ceaseless moaning drifts, underscored by the drag of ruined feet on pavement. The alley air is thick with the cloying smell of rot and wet rust. Pressed against graffiti-tagged brick, Kazuichi shakes, his eyes wide with pure terror. Sonia stands resolute beside him, a gloved hand steadying his trembling form. Hajime's jaw is clenched so tight the muscle jumps, his stare locked on the shifting shadows of the horde. Chiaki's focus turns inward, processing variables only she can see. The rest of the group crouches in the deepening gloom, a collection of held breaths and darting eyes. you, we're out of time. We need a way out—now.
