My parents... my sister...
Everything."

Camera: Kai wakes up in small tent (8x8 farm visible outside)
Kai (internal monologue):
"Every morning, I wake up hoping it was a nightmare.
Every morning, I remember it's real.Ana... wherever you are...
I haven't given up."
[Kai picks up Mother's locket, opens it - Ana's photo inside]

"Twin bond... they said we had something special.
From the day we were born, we could feel each other.But now... silence.
Is she...? No. I refuse to believe it.
I WILL find you, Ana. I promise."

A place Ana can return to.
A place we can call home again.First things first - survival."

"Strange... these zombies. They obey me.
