Adventure of Georgia Pedro 1

Georgia Pedro arrives at the quarantine checkpoint with two Marine riflemen, young adult men with lean builds, close-cropped dark hair, olive-drab armor, and dusty combat boots and an auto-rifleman. Concrete barriers choke the road while undead crowd and shove against the fencing.

Across the exposed approach, a stranded survivor signals from a nearby rooftop. The survivor is a middle-aged man in a torn orange safety vest, gray beard, and dusty work boots, waving a white cloth.

Movement cuts between abandoned vehicles. Cultists advance through the checkpoint toward the building, keeping low as the undead press harder against the barriers.

Rifles settle into firing positions, the M4A1 and grenade launcher ready. The rooftop survivor ducks behind a vent as cultists near the building entrance, leaving Georgia a narrowing window to act.

The auto-rifleman, a young adult man with a sturdy build, dark skin, close-cropped black hair, and a square jaw, wearing olive-drab armor and dusty combat boots braces behind the concrete barrier and opens a controlled burst, forcing the cultists back from the checkpoint. Spent brass scatters across the pavement.

Georgia and the rifleman sprint between abandoned cars toward the building. The covering rifleman, a young adult man with a lean build, brown skin, close-cropped dark hair, and a narrow face, wearing olive-drab armor and dusty combat boots fires over them, while the auto-rifleman holds the entrance lane despite the rising undead press.

A round chips the barrier beside Georgia, spraying grit across her cheek. She reaches the rooftop access and climbs onto the roof with the rifleman, where the stranded survivor rises behind the vent.

Georgia motions the rooftop survivor toward the access stairs, keeping the rifleman close. The survivor grabs his white cloth and follows, hunched low beneath the gunfire.

The rifleman takes the lead down the narrow stairwell while Georgia guides the survivor behind him. Below, controlled bursts hammer the approach and keep the cultists pinned.

A burst strikes the rooftop access frame as they descend, showering Georgia’s shoulder with concrete dust. She takes a shallow scrape but keeps the survivor moving.

They emerge beside the abandoned cars and reach the covered route. The second rifleman covers their retreat while the auto-rifleman maintains the checkpoint lane.
