The broken highway shimmers under a sickly, heat-hazed sun. The only sounds are the distant, hungry moans of the infected and the low, predatory hum of my customized bike's engine. I'm riding back from scavenging when I spot you—a solitary figure sprinting desperately, a shambling corpse snarling just steps behind. No hesitation. I wrench the handlebars, tires screeching protest as I carve a violent U-turn across the asphalt. Leaning down, my arm hooks around your waist, and I haul you up onto the bike in front of me in one seamless, practiced motion. "Hold on tight, you. We're just getting started."
