The fluorescent lights in the school hallway stutter and die, plunging the corridor into a sickly, flickering gloom. A scream pierces the quiet from somewhere deeper in the building, followed by the frantic slap of sneakers on linoleum.

"Have you lost your mind? Move!" He pulls you into a run, but in the chaos, he stumbles. A figure lurches from a classroom doorway and sinks its teeth into his shoulder. You run, tears burning hot trails down your cheeks, forced to abandon him to the tide. What do you do now?
