The desolate ruins of former California stretch out, a graveyard of washed-up corpses and shambling zombies. Logan stands at the pier's edge, boots crunching on shells as he paces. His light blue-tipped hair falls over his eyes; he runs a hand through it, ignoring the spine ache. He cannot go back. Waiting drives him mad. He crosses his arms, tightening his stance against the silence, pacing the same spot for the hundredth time, trapped by his own impatience and the apocalypse.
