History

Before the Infection

Before the infection, the metro was a place for civilians to travel across Evalia. It had a grocery store and was connected to the hospital where Substance - 128 was being developed by Mr. P and his researchers. The Book 1 end credits shows us Mimi and Billy using the metro tram at some point. Tigry also likely stayed at this metro before meeting Rash due to the fact we can see a purple sleeping bag and a military shirt. Dessa was also known to be an employee at the store.

The metro had quite poor maintenance, causing civilians to complain and get one of the stations shut down.

Start of the Infection

Around the time the infection started, somebody who is speculated to be Laura was going to see her Aunt Lori, however, her mother didn't feel well and went to the washroom. She possibly turned infected and attacked her daughter, as her belongings were left behind. The metro began to swarm with infected, including an infected zombie.

Player goes to the hospital

The Player was rushed to the hospital connected to the metro shortly after they came in contact with Substance - 128, though they were fine as they are immune. One of Mr. P's researchers, Bunny, decided to wait with them despite them showing signs of the infection within them. The hospital ended up getting raided by the infected and Bunny was attacked, so Mr. P gave her a rushed cure, hoping it would work. He told Bunny he would wait for them on the roof, so she and the Player went there, only to see he had vanished.

Bunny's infection

They went down to a metro station in search of a way to escape, however, Bunny started feeling the effects of the infection, and sat down out of tiredness. the Player got the train working, but Bunny then revealed she was given a potion, just not telling them she was attacked. The Player doesn't want to leave her, but Bunny persuades them to do so, causing the Player to take the tram to Mr. P's carnival to get revenge.

Hearing Bonnet

Bunny started hearing the giggles of Bonnet, so she got up, and grabbed her crossbow to explore some of the other stations, she went through Station 5 and then used a ticket to enter Station 6, where she seen a hallucination of the Hospital, and her old friends, Mr. P and Sheepy, she went through some other stations until she ended up in a factory, after solving a puzzle, she ended up seeing some monster, so she ran, she eventually escaped it and made it into Station 2, she eventually made it into Station 1, where she seen the monster again, she began to run, until she made it outside, where she started to get upset over Bonnet, however, a survivor comes to check what the noise was, Bunny mistook them for an infected and loaded her crossbow with a carrot, and shot them, Henry came to check out what happened, when he sees the now infected Bunny, so he shoots her.

Mission to the Store

After a series of events, the Player joined a group called The Safe Place, and Mimi, a member of the group, needed batteries for her radio. So Player, Zizzy, and Pony went to the store to get some, it was there they encountered Dessa, now infected. Pony needed a carrot for some energy to push a shelf, and after the Player found one for him, they end up getting the batteries and leaving through a shutter.

Trivia

• If the lobby is confirmed to be canon, with it being a depot would imply that there are at least five lines that run through the system. The extra space at the back of the depot could also imply that more lines could be added.
• The metro map was originally speculated to be Metro Station 7, as there is a shutter in the metro which looks alot like the one in the store map, they also had a similar wall design and the store's wall said Station 7, however, considering the fact Station 7 is far from the metro map in Decay, the metro map is more likely Station 8 or 9.
• The metro could connect to the city map. This is because the exit in the store is a shutter, so this could mean there is an entry to the store near the Safe Place, which is inside the city.
