The air in the hallway was damp and heavy with the stench of decay. Light from the access hallway recessed bulbs flooded the hallway but it did very little to ease the atmosphere.
Mia crouched low, her twin daggers glinting faintly. She tightened her grip on the hilts, sweat trickling down her brow.
Her breathing was steady, but her heart pounded in her chest as she stared down the hallway, where two zombies shuffled aimlessly.
"Alright… I've got this," she whispered to herself, more to quiet her nerves than to boost her confidence.
She stepped forward, her footfalls light, deliberate. The daggers felt awkward in her hands. Though Ves and Miguel had given her some pointers, handling the twin daggers was still new to her.
Her movements were slow, cautious. Though the twin daggers gives her a +10 Agility boost, it only brought her speed up to the same level as the zombies age fighting.
