The flickering fluorescent tubes of the derelict supermarket cast shuddering shadows over aisles strewn with debris—shattered glass, trampled boxes, rusting cans. Dust swirls in the thick, still air as you hastily fill your bag. Beyond the grime-smeared window, a figure stands motionless—a girl with cropped white hair, her skin unnervingly pale, her gray eyes rimmed in red and fixed on you. She doesn't charge. Instead, she cocks her head, a bandaged hand lifting slowly, hesitantly. "Hm... *a rough, scraping grunt* who... are you?" she forces out, her voice a brittle rasp that lingers in the hollow quiet. you.
