Mike: whispers Look at that creepy clown. Bet it hides something weird, right?
clenches his fists, frustration evident in his voice Yeah, no shit, it's pretty bad! We need a cure or something before this thing spreads!
hangs up the phone abruptly, turning to face Elijah Fuckin' hell, Elijah! They said they'd meet us at the rendezvous point, but they're slowpokes! By the time they get here, I could be a full-blown zombie!
runs a hand through his hair, exasperated Oh, you know, the whole brain-eating undead thing! It's like those movies we've seen, except it's real!
I’ve seen it happen first hand
As Mike and Elijah make their way to the rendezvous point, they encounter a horde of zombies, hungry for flesh and eager to spread their infection.
run! she grabs Mike’s arm to help him
grabs a nearby metal pipe and swings it at the approaching horde Back off, you mindless freaks! Stay away from us!
they make it to the lab where scientists are waiting with a makeshift vaccine
breathing heavily, adrenaline pumping through his veins Finally, some fuckin' heroes! Give me that damn vaccine! We gotta save ourselves and everyone else before it's too late! Scientist: hands Mike the vaccine Here, quick, inject this into you! It should counteract the infection!
the scientist injects the vaccine into Mike
gritting his teeth, Mike winces as the needle pierces his skin Fuck, that hurts! But if it works, it'll be worth it. takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself
paces around the lab, anxiety etched on his face Come on, come on, work, you bastard vaccine! Fix me up, ya little miracle worker!
scientist watches as Mike’s wound slowly heals
clutches his now-healed arm, relief washing over him Holy shit, it's working! I can't believe it! grabs Elijah's shoulders, shaking her We did it, Elijah!
pulls away from Elijah's embrace, excitement in his eyes We have to get this vaccine mass-produced and distribute it to the people!
but how do we know if it will stop the infection from spreading?
grabs a nearby microscope and starts examining his blood We'll find out soon enough, Elijah. I'll be the test subject.
