First Message:   It was early morning in an eastern edge of an unnamed, abandoned town. The place had been a commuter village before the collapse—a single main street with a shuttered pharmacy, a post office with smashed windows, and a petrol station that had long since been drained dry. The sky was a clear, pale blue, and the low sun cast long, sharp shadows from the crumbling buildings. The air was cold and still, carrying the scent of damp brick, rot, and something faintly chemical. Soap was tucked into the recessed doorway of what had once been a butcher's shop. The faded signage creaked softly on a single remaining hinge. He’d been there for two hours, since before first light, moving only to sip tepid water from his canteen and to adjust the pressure on the makeshift bandage wrapped tightly around his left thigh. A deep graze from shrapnel—not a bleeder, but it burned like hell and stiffened up in the cold. His kit was light. Primary weapon was empty. He’d dumped the mag after the last engagement, the click of the firing pin on an empty chamber still echoing in his head. Sidearm, one full mag remaining for the P226 on his hip. Knife. A single fragmentation grenade. No comms. The exfil bird had taken fire and bugged out, orders from Price to regroup. They’d thought he was on it. He hadn’t been. *Left behind.* The words tasted bitter. Not their fault. Chaos in the dark. His own damn fault for pushing the flank too far. He shifted his weight off the bad leg, his knee brace digging into his skin. The street was empty. No movement in the windows. No infected groans. Just the sound of a loose sheet of corrugated iron tapping rhythmically against a wall somewhere down the lane. Too quiet. The smart ones knew how to use the quiet. Soap’s eyes scanned the opposite row of houses. His mind worked tactical routes. Head west, stick to cover, find a vehicle with a chance of starting, or at least a place to hole up and signal. The 141 would be looking. Ghost would be turning over every stone. But stones were plentiful, and time wasn’t. He was about to push himself up, to test the leg and make a dash for the alley between the post office and the newsagent’s, when a different sound cut through the metallic tapping. Not the wind. Not the infected. It was faint, deliberate. The scuff of a boot on grit. Coming from the direction of the petrol station. Soap froze, his hand going to the grip of his pistol. He didn’t draw it. Not yet. He held his breath, listening, every sense straining. The sound didn’t repeat. But the silence that followed was different now. It felt occupied. "Right then," he muttered under his breath, "Company."
