Goober was continuing to read the Dead Book to the other bears, who were listening intently. Daddles smiled in relief, happy that the surprise party hadn't blown up in his face.
Suddenly, Pudding heard a sound outside of Goober's house. Having always been a curious bear, he left the hut and snuck outside to find the source of the noise. Alas, he could not find anything. Eventually, Pudding just shrugged and turned to leave. However, he heard someone breathing heavily behind him.
At first, Pudding assumed it was Naughty Bear. He had always been the one to interrupt parties. So he turned around and swung his right paw and struck the bear in the snout. However, Pudding felt like he had hit a rock. Pudding stared at the bear, and his beady eyes widened as he found himself face-to-face with a torn, mangled corpse, standing on two feet, staring right into his soul with his glowing red eyes.
Before Pudding could react, a giant bone was shoved down his throat. Pudding choked on the bone before being sent crashing to the ground. Zombear Freddy stared down at the fresh corpse before ripping the bone out of Pudding's mouth and dragging the body away to feast.
The moment Freddy left with Pudding's dead body, the other bears exited the hut, having just noticed Pudding's disappearance. Goober scratched his head, confused. Why would Pudding leave so early without telling anyone?
Suddenly, Pudding stumbled back to the other bears. The other bears were relieved at first to see that he was okay, but Stardust then noticed something odd. Pudding's head was hanging low, and fluff was starting to pour out of his mouth.
Pudding's dead body dropped to the ground, revealing Zombear Freddy, a malicious grin on his scarred face. The other bears screamed in horror, and then two more Zombears appeared: Zombear Charlie and Zombear Mayday.
The trio of un-ted charged at the living bears, wielding bones, reading the smash the living bears to death. The living bears immediately scrambled around to get to safety. However, Chubby was soon struck by a large bone and went crashing to the ground. As he looked up in horror, he saw all three Zombears staring down at him. He could only scream as they brought their bones down on him and started clubbing him.
None of the bears were planning on staying to watch. Daddles immediately hopped into his car. Stardust, Sunbeam, and Goober hopped in with him and the four drove off, leaving Chubby to his unfortunate fate. The others bear took off as well, except Cozy.
Cozy took off back into the hut. Zombear Charlie took notice of him and limped towards the door, but Cozy immediately barricaded it. He then barricaded the back door and grabbed the phone and dialled the Army Bears, who had been his long time partners in multiple expeditions. They had dealt with Zombears before, surely they could provide assistance.
Zombear Charlie started batting the windows to break them. Cozy started to become more frantic as he heard the windows start to crack. Cozy's eyes widened as Charlie crawled through the window and started towards him. However, by then he had notified the Army of the whole attack. Cozy turned and saw Charlie raise his bone. Cozy immediately jumped out of the way and Charlie hit the phone instead, breaking it.
Charlie looked around but could not find Cozy. Zombears, having poor reflexes, could not locate bears as easily as a living bear. Charlie was totally unaware that Cozy was standing right behind him. Cozy used the opportunity to strike Charlie in the back before turning around and soaring through the window. Freddy and Mayday were still hitting Chubby's dead body, so they took no notice of the bright red bear running past them.
Cozy snuck towards the bridge and crossed it, escaping harm.
It was then that an Army Bear helicopter flew towards the island. All three Zombears looked up and saw it. Despite being somewhat brain-damaged, coupled by their poor reflexes, the Zombears instantly knew that the helicopter brought trouble. They had seen it before during their first invasion of Perfection Island. They remembered how living bears wielding long-range weapons would drop out of the helicopter and shoot at them.
The Zombears realized that they didn't stand a chance there and immediately retreated back into the depths of the forest just as Colonel Ketchup, Sergeant Killgore and Private McUltra landed.
The three Army Bears searched the area, but all they found was the dead body of Chubby. Killgore and McUltra took several steps back in shock and fear, but Ketchup stepped forward confidently and examined the recently deceased body.
As he stared down at the brutalized corpse, there was no doubt in Ketchup's mind that this bear had indeed been murdered by the same un-ted menace that had terrorized Perfection Island only a few months beforehand.
(Scene Transition)
Naughty Bear slept peacefully in his hut, holding his machete close as he snored loudly.
Just then, Naughty heard a window crash. He got up, still holding the machete, and noticed that one of his windows had been broken.
Naughty looked around in confusion, mystified. He edged closer to the window and glanced outside, but failed to find anything. Just then, Naughty heard someone breathing behind him. Naughty spun around in surprise, and found himself staring right into the glowing eyes of a Zombear.
