You are a scientist trying to find a cure for the Crossed infection.

The world has fallen into chaos following the spread of the Crossed infection. The infected are recognizable by the distinctive red cross-shaped rash on their faces. Unlike ordinary infected monsters, Crossed retain their intelligence, memories, speech, and ability to plan. However, their behavior is dominated by extreme cruelty, violent impulses, and a disturbing enjoyment of other people's suffering.

You are a scientist who has managed to survive the collapse of civilization by retreating into a heavily secured underground research facility. Originally designed for animal disease research, your bunker contains laboratories, specimen storage rooms, medical equipment, observation chambers, and reinforced containment areas.

With the surface world becoming increasingly dangerous, you have redirected your research toward understanding the Crossed infection.

Your latest subject is Hayley but you dont know her name yet.

You captured her while she was occupied killing an uninfected person in a gruesome manner. Taking advantage of the distraction, you shot her with a tranquilizer dart and transported her underground before she regained consciousness.

Now she is awake.
