Clara’s finger hovered near the trigger as another infected dragged itself closer to the car. Her breathing grew shallow, and every instinct screamed at her to stay inside the vehicle, lock the doors, and let Marcus handle the danger.

But she couldn’t keep sitting there while he risked his life alone.

Clara swallowed hard, tightened her grip around the handgun, and pushed open the driver’s-side door.

The moment her feet touched the pavement, one of the infected turned toward her. Its mouth open

    Clara woke to the smell of freshly prepared food. She sat up slowly, still feeling the effects of the previous night's exhaustion, before washing her face and heading downstairs. The moment she entered the kitchen, her eyes settled on Marcus, who was rinsing a cooking pot, while Elena sat at the table watching him."Look who's finally awake," Elena remarked.Clara pulled out a chair and sat down. "How long was I asleep?""Long enough for Marcus to start worrying that you wouldn't wake up before lunchtime," Elena replied with a grin.Marcus glanced at her. "Don't start."Clara looked at the food on the table before turning her attention back to him, a small smile spreading across her face. "Did you make this for me?""No. I prepared it for the entire station, but everyone else has already eaten," Marcus replied without looking at her.“He's lying. He made it especially for you and kept worrying it wouldn't taste good,” Elena teased Marcus.Clara glanced at Marcus, her smile softening

    The night passed slowly, and Clara barely slept. Every unfamiliar sound made her reach for the weapon beside her. Marcus and the others took turns keeping watch, but none of them managed to get proper rest. By the time morning came, Clara's eyes were heavy, and her body ached from spending the night on an old sofa. Marcus noticed her rubbing her temples as they prepared to leave."Are you alright?" he asked."I'm fine."He gave her a doubtful look but didn't argue. Instead, he checked that everyone was ready before leading them out."We should get moving," Marcus said as he closed the front door behind him.Everyone climbed into the vehicles, and they set off for the station.The journey was quiet. Clara rested her head against the window, watching the deserted buildings pass by as her eyelids grew heavier. She kept forcing herself to stay awake, reminding herself that there was still too much to do and that she couldn't afford to waste time sleeping.When they finally arrived at t

    Clara looked around the living room, searching for anything that could help. Shooting at them was out of the question. They didn't know how many were gathered outside, and firing more shots would only attract others.Meanwhile, Marcus and two of the men continued trying to convince the elderly couple to leave."Please," one of the men said."Leave us alone!" the elderly woman snapped. Clara ignored their argument as her eyes settled on a bluetooth speaker sitting on a small cabinet near the television.An idea immediately came to her.She walked over and picked it up, examining it before looking around for her phone. Then she remembered she had left it inside the car."Damn it," she muttered. She turned toward the men. "Does anyone have a phone?"Two of them nodded."Good. I need one."One of the men reached into his pocket and brought out his phone, looking at her curiously. "What do you need it for?"Clara held up the bluetooth speaker. "I'm going to connect it to this and use the

    "How many?" Marcus asked the man who had reported the infected.“There are about ten on the street. I saw more approaching from the other direction, but I couldn't get a clear count.”Marcus glanced at the others. "Secure every entrance. Make sure the doors and windows are locked. Nobody makes any move without my order."The men immediately moved to carry out his instructions.Clara approached the window and carefully looked through a narrow gap in the curtains. Several infected wandered between the abandoned vehicles, their movements slow and unsteady. One stumbled against a parked car, scraping its hands against the metal as it struggled to regain its balance.A faint groan drifted from somewhere down the street."Our noise attracted them," Clara said, stepping away from the window."We can't stay here for long," Marcus replied. "More will keep coming if they hear us.""We need another exit."Marcus turned toward the elderly couple, who were still standing near the staircase. Th

    "Oh my God. I just hope it's not what I'm thinking."The words slipped out before Clara could stop herself. She turned toward the corridor and suddenly broke into a run."Wait!" the elderly woman cried.Her husband stepped forward, but Clara was already halfway up the stairs."Please, come back!" the old man shouted as he hurried after her, his wife close behind.Marcus exchanged a startled glance with the men before following them."Clara!"She barely heard him.At the top of the stairs, Clara stopped and held her breath. The sound was faint, almost swallowed by the silence, but she could still hear it: a low, uneven noise followed by something scraping against the floor.Her heart began to pound as she turned toward the doors lining the corridor. She moved slowly, listening carefully while the elderly couple continued calling after her, their voices growing more desperate with every step.Clara reached the last door and placed her hand on the handle."Don't!" the woman cried.Clara

    "We don't have time to waste," Marcus said, drawing Clara's attention back to the warehouse. "We should take whatever is useful and get out of here."Clara glanced at the crates before nodding. The men immediately began sorting through the supplies, setting aside ammunition, medical equipment, food and anything else they could safely transport. Clara joined them, carefully moving several boxes into her Vault whenever no one was watching.She prioritised the ammunition and medicine, knowing how difficult they would be to replace. She also stored some canned food and other essentials, leaving the rest for the men to load into the vehicles. After several minutes, Marcus looked around at the remaining supplies."That's enough. We need to leave."He turned toward the men, who quickly secured the last few crates before gathering near the entrance."Ready?" Marcus asked.Everyone nodded.Marcus stepped outside first, his weapon raised as he scanned the surroundings. Darkness had settled
