Chapter 4: Companions in Chaos
The bunker's countdown ends with a low hum, and the robotic voice announces the release of its automated defenses. Turrets emerge from the walls, firing at the remaining zombies outside. The group of survivors barely has time to react before a new wave of creatures descends on them. Amid the chaos, two figures appear, cutting through the horde with uncanny precision.
The first is Eliza, a sharp-eyed young woman wielding a pair of electrified daggers that shimmer with energy. Her movements are swift and calculated, each strike bringing down a zombie with surgical precision. The second is Xander, a towering man with a massive, rune-covered hammer that seems to vibrate with raw power. With a single swing, he smashes a group of zombies into the ground, leaving nothing but a crater behind.
Alex watches in awe as the pair clears a path toward him. Shadow growls protectively, but Alex raises a hand to calm the dog.
"We saw the light from the bunker," Eliza says, her voice calm but commanding. "Figured you might need a hand."
Xander nods, his deep voice rumbling like thunder. "Good thing we got here when we did."
Riley, ever wary, eyes the newcomers suspiciously. "Who are you two?"
"Survivors," Eliza replies curtly. "Same as you."
Though Alex senses there's more to their story, he decides not to press the issue. He's just grateful for their help. Together, the group manages to fend off the remaining creatures and secure the bunker.
