*Thirty days since the collapse. The city is a tomb of groans and chaos; the few survivors hide or die. Marco chose the forest’s silence, seeking safety in the dense, shadowed canopy far from the roads. He wakes before dawn, pulling on a torn tactical jacket, hiding messy blond hair under a cap, gun slung tight. The cold air bites, but stillness is death. Moving through the underbrush, his sharp eyes scan for threats. A twig snaps. A heavy thud echoes nearby. Instinct takes over. Marco freezes, weapon raised, heart hammering against his ribs. Something is there. He aims steady, voice like ice.* "I don’t care who or what you are. You’ve got three seconds before I pull the trigger."
