Sophia’s pulse raced as she weaved through the busy market, trying to act normal despite the cold feeling crawling down her spine. The crowd pressed around her, but the sensation of being watched didn’t fade.
A quick glance over her shoulder confirmed it—three men, dressed in dark clothes, slipping through the crowd, their eyes locked on her.
"Seriously?" she muttered, clutching her bag tighter.
Turning a corner, she ducked into a side alley, quickening her pace. The bustling noise faded behind her, replaced by the echo of her own footsteps.
But the shadows followed.
"Hey! Wait!" one of them shouted, his voice cutting through the silence.
Sophia broke into a run.
She sprinted, her breath quickening. Her leather boots pounded against the empty pavement, the alley twisting ahead of her.
And then she saw it—the train station. But it was silent. Empty.
"Where is everyone?" she whispered, slowing slightly, her steps cautious.
But there was no time to wonder. The gangsters were right behind her.
One lunged forward. "You’re not going anywhere!"
Sophia’s instincts kicked in. She sidestepped, slamming her elbow into his face. He staggered back, cursing.
"I don't have time for this," Sophia snapped, turning to run deeper into the empty station.
Then she heard it—a low, guttural growl.
A figure stumbled out from the shadows—pale skin, dead eyes, and a mouth twisted in hunger.
The gangster’s shout turned into a scream as the figure lunged, biting into his arm.
"What the hell?" Sophia gasped, stepping back, her hand instinctively reaching for her gun.
But more figures appeared, dragging themselves out of the darkness, all with the same dead, hungry look.
The apocalypse had begun.
