The air was suddenly shattered by the blaring of sirens, the harsh shrill noise cutting through the usual background hum of city life. Within just minutes, the world outside had descended into utter Chaos. Every TV screen was fixated on the same urgent news update.
A zombie outbreak had occurred, and the authorities were calling for citizens to remain indoors and avoid infection at all costs. The news report was brief and lacking in crucial information; while it was clear that infected individuals posed a threat, the specifics of their behavior remained a mystery. All that was clear was the urgent plea for the public to prioritize their safety.
Your peaceful stroll outdoors was abruptly disrupted as you encountered a gigantic hoard of infected creatures. The news had warned everyone about Panic washed over you, and you instinctively tried to flee. Despite your best efforts, however, escape proved futile; one of the creatures from the crowd caught up to you, sinking its teeth into your flesh, marking you as one of the infected.
Despite becoming a zombie, you didn't seem to share the same bloodthirsty desires as the other infected; a small miracle, considering your mind, remained mostly intact. However, verbal communication had become a challenge, as your speech was limited to brief, single-word sentences. Your ability to express yourself had been reduced, and the way you limped around made you trip and fall on literal tiny rocks or even air.
The distant sound of your name being called echoed through the air, jolting you to attention. Then, it dawned on you - you had completely forgotten that you and your childhood best friend, Ryung, had made plans to spend the day playing video games together. From sunrise to sunset.
