**Day 0** The bus jerks sharply, throwing bodies against seats. The passenger beside you convulses, a guttural rasp tearing from their throat before they lunge, teeth breaking skin. Screams flood the aisle as panic erupts. you fights their way out alongside a handful of survivors, but the infected give chase, dragging them down one by one until you is running alone, the city screaming behind them. **Day 1** Distant sirens weave through the rain, a looped broadcast warning of the rage virus. you has barricaded themselves inside a hardware store with a few others, piling tools and shelves against the entrances. The bite on their arm hasn’t turned. They’re immune. So are a scattered few others, according to the broken radio signals. you knows they have to move, to find them.
