Against The Dark

Once the infection hit,

there was little time to react.

People did what they could.

But since no one was immune

to the effects of the virus...

...authorities were ultimately helpless

as the infection rapidly spread.

All who became exposed

and survived an initial attack...

...began their own relentless

quest for blood...

...attacking and feeding

upon the innocent.

There was no vaccine...

...no known reports

of individuals being immune.

Neighbourhoods and entire cities

were wiped out.

The very fabric of civilisation

is breaking down before our eyes.

Many surviving humans lik e us

were left to fend for themselves.

Moving around during the day

and hiding at night.

Barricading themselves

inside secure buildings.

Others formed vigilante groups.

- Hurry, up there. Come on, let's go.

- Let's go.

Come on. Let's go.

Let's go. Come on. Hurry.

Or became hunters.

Swordsmen who were tracking down

and killing the infected.

We were lucky

when we managed to find a refuge.

A place with

some food and shelter...

...where we could survive

until we could be rescued.

But with our location

no longer being safe...

...and the chances for rescue

becoming more and more remote...

...our options were running out.

It was now us...

...against the dark.

Let's get this boy out of here.

Take him to a safe place.

We're not here

to decide right or wrong.

We're here to decide

who lives and dies.

Please evacuate the building.

Evacuation is mandatory.

Would everyone please exit

the building in an orderly manner?

Be careful.

- Okay?

- Yeah.

Watch your hands.

Put that shit out.

No smoke.

Give me a break.

There's none of them around.

Would everyone please exit

the building in an orderly manner?

- What are you doing?

- It's on a loop, Dylan.

We've been listening

to the same shit for months.

Every building

that has any survivors has one.

Ever occur to you

there might be a safe place?

No.

How the hell do you have

so much of that left?

You'd be surprised what you can find

in people's medicine cabinets.

If you look hard enough.

We'll find a safe place to sleep.

We'll get out of here at first light.

Hey.

It's okay.

- It's okay, baby.

- No, it's not.

It's never gonna be okay.

Or safe.

We're in this together, right?

Of course we are.

And you listen to me.

Things may never be

the same again...

...but it will get better.

Okay?

You've been asleep

for almost six hours.

- What's wrong?

- We gotta get going.

The generator's dying

and the food's all gone.

We should start finding a way out.

Come on. Come on, let's go.

Base, this is Unit 12. Come in.

Base, this is Unit 12. Do you copy?

Unit 12, we read you.

We're approaching

a medical complex.

Hope to complete a sweep by dawn.

I'll keep you posted.

Understood.

Standing by for updates.

- Over.

- Out.

It's okay. They're not infected.

She's sick.

We just lost two others

to pneumonia.

We're here for the medication,

that's all.

Is it just the two of you?

I was a student intern here

before the quarantine.

Most of the medication

was stolen months ago.

We don't know these people,

Dorothy.

Sorry.

We haven't seen another person

in three weeks.

Neither have we.

It's pretty safe in here.

For now.

- Charlie.

- I'm okay, Amelia.

Jeez.

Sorry.

We have to take care of our own,

right?

Which way?

The pharmacy?

Down the hall.

We're gonna clear each building

room by room.

Girls, kill anything that

looks infected.

- Yes, sir.

- What about survivors?

If they're tough enough,

we'll bring them with us.

What now?

West doorways and stairwells
