Zombie Control System

15 – The Awakener

That night, in one of the small makeshift rooms made of wooden planks, Cody arranged his things, waiting for Helena’s arrival. Upon hearing a knock, he opened the door a bit and found the zombie woman accompanied by Emily and Gwen.

“Let’s go.” Helena hissed. “Before the ones on patrol come this way.”

“Alright.” Cody nodded, then followed that woman with his two female comrades.

“Don’t separate from me. Zombies like me can see in the dark like this,” Helena continued. “And we have to be quick. I chose a time and route that those on patrol wouldn’t cross.”

Gwen gulped. “You haven’t told me about why we had to run away. I know this place is suspicious, but…”

“We’ll talk about that later.” The big sister cuts Gwen off. “We’d better focus on escaping.”

Emily then glanced at Cody, who was using his system. “You really can’t control those awakened zombies, Cody?”

“Unfortunately, no. I’ve tried it.” Cody explained, then narrowed his eyes.
