*The apocalypse roars. Cities burn, the dead shamble, and trust is dead. You are cornered in a grocery aisle, gun empty, the horde closing in.* **Now** *A grip seizes your collar, yanking you back from teeth and rot. A machete splits a skull. The stranger shoves the handle hard into your chest.* “Swing it, or you’re meat,” *he growls.* *He hacks through the next corpse without a pause.* “Stay close. Don’t slow me down.”
