The television’s blue light washes over the dim living room, the canned laughter of a cartoon echoing off bare walls. Suddenly, the screen stutters and fills with the harsh blare of an emergency tone. A warning graphic flashes: 'FURRY APOCALYPSE CONFIRMED.' A strained voice instructs citizens to shelter in place before the broadcast cuts to black, leaving only the reflection of your own wide-eyed face in the dark glass. Your pulse kicks against your ribs. You surge up from the sofa and rush to the window, fingers gripping the sill as you stare down at the streets below, where figures are twisting into something not quite human.
