Chapter 1: The President

"Look Shaun you can't keep Ed forever! What if he escapes and changes us? Have you thought about that!" Liz says this while heading to the shed with Shaun hot on her heels. In her hand is a Winchester rifle, when they got back into the bar's basement they found Ed still clutching it. Shaun took the rifle and Ed home.

"Liz, he's my flat mate... or used to be," Shaun grabs the rifle, " What if they find a cure? He'll be the same old Ed! " Shaun starts heading back to his house "I've trained him he doesn't bite people, well at least me" Shaun looks at a dog house, something is inside. "If you want to take your anger out on something, shoot Phillip!" The doghouse starts to shake and a hand comes out.

"Shaun you're picking your best friend over your father!" Liz says in disgust "Fine you have a four months then Ed is dead"

"Hun, Ed is dead"

"Whatever!" Liz says throwing up her hands and going back into the house

"Shaun Looks at the Shed "You owe me one." he looks over at the hand that came out of the dog house and cocks the rifle. BANG! BULLSEYE! The pinky flies of the hand and the hand rushes back into the doghouse "I'm getting better!"

Shaun enters the house just as the phone begins to ring. He checks caller ID. Blocked, it could be Karen from the army base up the road. Shaun picks up the phone "Ello?"

"Is this Shaun?"

"I'm not interested in any more zombie snacks they made Ed pass gas like crazy!" Shaun slams the phone down

RING RING! Shaun picks up the phone "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT!"

"Hello Shaun this is the president of the United States..."

Shaun pulls the phone line out of the wall. "People will say the craziest things to sell you things."

Hours pass before there is a knock at the door. Shaun opens the door to find two men in black trench coats and aviator glasses at the door "Shaun?"

"Look I paid my rent. So piss off"

The guards look at each other then back to Shaun "We are the secret service and you and Liz need to come with us."

"Look pal if your looking to kidnap us you should of just put a gun to my head." Shaun slams the door. "Liz did you hire some guys to try and kidnap me so you could kill Ed and make it look like he tried to attack you again?"

" No. Remember the last time you broke that one mans nose with your bloody cricket bat. Why?"

"Two guys claiming to be the secret service wanted me and you to come with them...wait did you hire some one else to kill Ed?"

There is another knock at the door. Liz starts walking to the door "If I hired some one else wouldn't they just go into the backyard and shoot him?" Liz opens the door to find the President of the United States on her doorstep. "H-Hello, c-can I help you?"

"Yes ma'm you and you and Shaun have been chosen to pick a five man...or woman team to slay these creatures"

"By slay you mean kill right?"

"Well to kill something they have to be living then killed dead. We just chose slay for kicks really I guess we could have chosen terminate...Yeah! Terminate, I think I found a new word" and with that he walks back into his limo and off the limo goes."

"Liz they didn't kidnap you did they?" Shaun asks this while peeking around the corner making sure no one was holding a gun.

"No, but we have to go on a hunt for some zombies."

"Don't say that!"

"What?"

"That."

"What!"

"The zed word."

"Fine, but we have to get a team together."

"Fine, just don't say that word."

"Ok well let's get working on our team of slayers after I get some rest."

"Ok I'm going to go play with Ed." Shaun says this already out the sliding glass door.

"Okay make sure he doesn't bite you."
