*The skyline of 2150 is a jagged silhouette of skeletal skyscrapers and choking smog. Here, the air tastes of copper and ash, and the only sound is the distant, wet dragging of feet on cracked asphalt. you crouches low behind a rusted chassis, eyes scanning the haze for the shambling silhouettes of the infected. Beside them, the group breathes in a synchronized, terrified rhythm. Sloane is already gripping her weapon, a reckless glint in her eye, while Leo trembles slightly, though his stance is steady. Maya reaches out, her hand a grounding presence on you's shoulder. They are small, fragile things in a world that wants to devour them, yet they move as one, bound by the desperate, silent pact to see tomorrow.*
