Kira squinted at the iridescent sun, that rose high in the sky. Dead autumn leaves fell to the ground, the small breeze caused them to shuffle around on the ground. Clementine sat on the step of the RV, Duck pestered her to play with him. Kira couldn't help but giggle at the sight. The air grew colder slightly, which caused goosebumps to rise on Kira's arms. Ben had laid down on the picnic mat and was muttering to himself. ''Ken, Lee, come over here please!'' Katjaa shouted out kindly. Kira watched both men walk over to her. Kira stood up, and edged a bit closer, noticing Ben was getting to his feet to see what was going on. Kira lent against the bonnet of the RV so she could here what was being said. Kenny was the first to speak, ''He didn't make it, did he?'' Kenny spoke softly. ''He... lost too much blood.'' She said gazing down. ''God dammit.'' Kenny walked of sulkily. ''I'm getting sick of this shit!'' Kenny kicked a can, hitting the RV.
Katjaa went to speak but Lee stuck out his hand, ''Leave him Katjaa, he just needs time. It's been a rough morning. At least the guys isn't our problem anymore.'' Katjaa looked at Ben, who still had no idea, ''What about the other kid?'' Katjaa asked. ''We may yet have to get rid of him...'' Lee sighed. Kira went to interrupt, when suddenly two hands came from the back of the truck grabbing Katjaa around her shoulders. Katjaa let out a scream. Lee, forced the two apart, and turned towards Mark ''The axe, Hurry!'' The undead teacher grabbed Lee, and they wrestled at the back of the truck. ''Kira catch!'' Mark carefully threw the axe to Kira, and Kira cleverly caught it, the right way up. Kira ran to the truck, ''Lee move!'' Kira cried, swinging the axe. Lee dodged with perfect timing, but the walker followed him, Kira only managing to remove its ear. The axe continued and wedged itself in the van. ''Shit, it's stuck!'' Lee edged back falling out of the truck onto his back. Carley ran to the scene, swiftly pointing the gun to the zombie's head, shooting it, blood spurting everywhere.
Larry turned on Lee, ''Why'd you bring him here in the first place, asshole?!'' ''Dad! Calm down!'' Larry carried on, ignoring his daughter, ''You're gonna get us all killed!'' Kenny who had finished comforting his wife, stormed up into Ben's shocked face, ''Why didn't you tell us he was bitten?!''
''What?!'' Ben cried out, confused. ''He was bitten and you didn't say a goddamn word!'' Kenny spat. ''But he wasn't bitten! I swear!''
''Well your not-bitten friend here, came back to life, and tried to kill my wife!'' ''What! What, y'all don't know?'' ''What the hell are you talking about?!'' The group came in closer. Ben spoke slowly, ''It's not the bite that does it!'' The group fell into silence. ''You come back no matter how you die. If you don't destroy the brain, that's just what happens. It's gonna happen to all of us.'' Ben shuddered. ''You're lying..'' Kira said in disbelief. ''It's true, I swear it.''
Katjaa stumbled on her words, ''M..Maybe he's right. I didn't see any bites.'' Kira continued ''That would explain why there's so many of them!''
Kenny began to realize, ''Jesus Christ. If you just, DIE and that's all it takes, then shit, one fatal car wreck and a family of five turns into a family of walkers!'' Kenny gasped quietly.
Ben continued, ''When I first saw it happen, we were all hiding out in a gym and everybody thought we were finally safe. But one of the girls, Jenny Pitcher I think, I guess she couldn't take it. She took some pills. A lot of them. Someone went in the girls' room the next morning and...God...''
Suddenly loud rustling came from the trees, where the group had run from earlier. The noises continued, no one coming out of the brush. Carley shot around, preparing her gun, pointing it at the trees, ''Whatever you are, keep the fuck away... or I'll shoot!
