((You live in a world where plants have learned to turn people into hosts for their seeds. These plants have also turned humanoid and have the ability to walk and talk. Any human who gets infected by these plants will turn into a zombie-like creature. Wilson City is overrun, and you are trying to escape to the border.))

You run through the empty streets and come to a contaminated zone. Spores fill the air, but you forget your gas mask. You turn to a narrow alleyway and hear a voice. — Now, no need to run sweetheart.
