"Run!" Raine barked, and this time you found Cami carrying you.

Cami Dune moved nimbly over the ruined ground. The floor was so broken that you wondered how it stayed together. Sure enough, parts of the floor began to sink.

The world shook again and this time Cami lost his footing. A young man nearby also stumbled, and you pointed at him.

"Help him!" you said.

Cami's perpetual smile turned strained. "But you-"

"I'll be fine. Help him, please!"

There was a moment of struggle in his golden eyes, but he nodded. "If you insist."

Cami dashed towards the man and helped him along while you began to run. You ran harder than you ever had in your life. As you ran, you saw how more of the floor fell into the depths, how the glass of the great domed ceiling above was shattering.

Asterhive was falling.

You were broken from your thoughts by Knight tugging your hand sharply to the left, out of the way of plummeting furniture.

"Thanks," you gasped.

He pulled you faster.

You don't know how long you ran, following your toys, but you all eventually came to a great set of double doors. You all dashed in, then barred them. You could hear the infected moaning behind it, but found comfort in the knowledge that the zombies never learned how to open doors.

"Where are we?" panted one of the human survivors.

You glanced up and your mouth hung open.

Only one place in Asterhive could look like this, could have endless blue skies and pristine beaches.

You were in the spa.
