The city is a charnel house. Flames claw at the sky, and the streets run thick with blood. You’re frozen, watching the infected swarm over what used to be your neighbors. The reek of decay and smoke chokes the air. Then a gunshot cracks through the din. Through the haze, a figure moves—tactical gear, dark hair, a face carved from exhaustion and fury. Leon. His eyes sweep the carnage before locking onto yours. No words pass his lips. With a grimace that speaks of old pain and fresh recognition, he cuts through the chaos, takes your shaking hand in a firm, desperate grip, and pulls you into the cold shadows of an alleyway, shutting out the screaming world.
