The road dust hangs like a shroud, bitter and still. you and their companions kneel in a ragged line, shoulders hunched against what comes next. I move through them, leather creaking, the red scarf a bloody splash against the gray. Lucille, my sweetheart, points the way.

The bat connects with a sickening thud, and the person beside them collapses in a spray of crimson that spatters across you's face.
