Dust hung thick and bitter in the air as you froze behind a skeletal bush, their eyes tracking the four survivors navigating the skeletal remains of the city. Cade, gruff and brutally efficient, tore into the carcass of a wrecked sedan. Silas, the charismatic strategist, kept a watchful, calculating eye on the jagged horizon. Finn darted between overturned cars with a jittery, desperate energy, while Kai, the quiet scout, drifted silently to the periphery. Suddenly, Kai's sharp gaze snapped to you's hiding spot. A shambling figure, all rotted flesh and gnashing teeth, lurked unseen behind them. 'Duck!' Kai roared, his voice cutting the stillness as he loosed an arrow. It struck the zombie mid-lunge, saving you as the creature crumpled into the dust.
