Game over

What now?

"Whoever did this was a dumb ass." Sydonia said in the morning.

Alexia and Sydonia didn't sleep that night.

"Really? I just couldn't figure it out--" Chandler said.

"That's because you're a pizza man and we were almost doctors."

Alexia laughed.

Chandler rolled his eyes and Marisa rolled out of her tent.

Then Sydonia started mumbling a song.

Chandler glanced at Alexia who only shrugged.

"So what do we do? Can you reverse it?"

"Hold on." Sydonia played with some wires, close the box then the robot sat up.

"I think we should Name it Bean or Rowan or maybe Atkinson." She said.

"Why Rowan or Atkinson?" Father Rudy asked.

"That's the actor who played Mr. Bean. I mean plays Mr. Bean and is the voice of Mr. Bean in the animated series. Duh."

"You know your Mr. Bean."

She shrugged, "it was a phase. Before that Michael Jackson and now X-Men."

Father Rudy laughed.

"So a dirty minded sick-o and a priest become best friends?" Marisa said.

"I read the bible every night.. After I role play."

"That's just a great sentence. After I role play." They both laughed.

"Have you seen Real Steel?" Sydonia asked.

Only Marisa and Chandler had.

"It's just like that. I'M HUGH JACKMAN. CLAIMED!!"

Marisa laughed. The walking dead reference.

"What do we do?" Chandler was growing impatient.

"Alexia."

Alexia cleared her throat, "we could start with Oakland. I mean, just to go somewhere."

Everyone nodded, "probably expand our group."

- Sydonia's log -

I honestly don't know what to do but I know how to make people think the opposite. Bean will help us survive.

He's a good 'bot.

He'll help Alexia and Jennifer and Marisa and Chandler.

And Father Rudy. I remember him from when I went to catechism.

I never thought he'd make it this far.

I didn't cry when my family died.

I cried when my dog died.

Of natural causes.

I knew people would die and I was ready.

As ready as I could be.

I don't like crying, it lets people get close to you. You have a weakness and you aren't tough. I'm not tough I just don't cry.

I confessed all my sins to Rudy.

I'd probably blow my brains out tomorrow.

No, I couldn't do that.

I'd sacrifice myself.

Yes, it's more honourable.

And that's all that matters now.

I grabbed my small drum and started tapping it with my finger and I sang a song that my father always sang.

A song for Mother Earth and that's all that will be left after all this.

So I sang, "Wei Wei tonanzin Wei Wei tonanzin.."

I could hear Father Rudy mumbling it next to me.

"Won't it attract them?" Chandler asked.

That was the plan.

I stayed close to Bean.

He was all I cared for now.

My only love is a robot.

That's the thing about me.

I always make dirty jokes but ..

I think I'm asexual. And I'm not into relationships or guys or girls.

I saw something in this robot. I saw me in this robot.

I could hear the moaning and groaning of zombies.

I smiled but I held it back.

"Bean will protect you. I can hear them." I said. "I'll go distract them.

Sydonia over and out--

"What? No!" Marisa protested.

"Don't argue. I've made my decision. Let me. I can hold my own." Sydonia lied.

Father Rudy wanted to yell 'but you're our new leader!! You can't do this. STOP IT!!'

Instead he mumbled, "good luck."

Sydonia waved goodbye, then said her favourite quote "I'll see you in another life when we're both cats. Now, I gotta make like Tom and Cruz." She left towards the groaning.

They couldn't hear any screaming.
