July 4, 1863: The fields of Gettysburg run red with the blood of the living as they valiently confront Wood's army in the last major defensive of the Seven Nation Army. Wingate is ordered to retreat with a warning to Washington and only just escapes.

06- Explosions in the Sky - A Song for Our Fathers
August 13, 1863: DC, weakened by the complete blockade of zombies that surround it, puts together a final unit of soldiers to punch through to the south and gain escape for the president. Just as the brave coalition platoons are about to strike, the blockade lurches into synchronized movement and closes upon the city from all directions. Wingate himself spirits Lincoln into the sewers to try a covert escape, but loses him to pursuers at the last moment. Nathan, lost and alone with only his gun, his saber, and his guitar, steals a horse from behind enemy lines and flees to the hills of Virginia.

07- Morcheeba - Fragments of Freedom
1864-1869: Just as Washington, DC was left a burning, hellish pit of despair, cities fall one by one all across the east coast. Richmond, Charlotte, Charleston, Miami, New Orleans, and finally, completely surrounded, Atlanta. In light of the government's fall, the slaves are emancipated, and a general call is given for all, black and white together, to flee. Many make it to the frontier, but many more fall along the way. The Zombie Legion grows with every victory.
