(Kyra's P.O.V.)
As I escaped the room, I felt I should look in the sanctuary. I opened the door and--- Yep. A mix of panicking people and dead people. I looked around the door and spotted a folded piece of paper under a speaker. I swiftly picked it up and closed the door. Sigh.
I whipped around to see a green, hideous, peeling face right in front of me. It grabbed me by the shoulders and I kneed the creature in it's stomach, sending it falling backwards. Then I searched in my pockets for whatever I could use, and the first thing I pulled out was my pen. Eww! I thought. Do I really have to do this? The zombie was recovering. It was getting back up. I had no choice. I stabbed it in the stomach area, sending a fountain of odd green liquid spewing out of it.
"Eeewwww!" I spazzed out. I shuffled around the body, trying my best not to puke. After I made it past the zombie, I found a dark supply closet and stepped into it, then used my flashlight to check for zombies. It was zombie-free. I unfolded the paper.
"Tips for a Zombie Apocalypse," I read aloud.
Okay, this will definitely be helpful.
1. If you pick a place to hide out, check and make sure there are no dead bodies already inside. Eventually, they will turn into zombies.
I checked around the closet again.
2. Don't hesitate to kill a zombie. It may be your best friend, but all she cares about is eating your brains.
3. Don't try and reason with a zombie. they only look like they're paying attention because they're focused on the thought of your brains.
4. If a friend dies, shoot them in the head. If you don't, they'll just turn into zombies and find you when you least expect it.
5. If trapped in a building, stay away from doors and windows. When you step in front of one, a zombie will most likely punch through and grab you.
I took a few steps back after locking the door to the supply closet.
6. If you find yourself running through a crowd of zombies, don't get confident because they're slow. One wrong move, and they'll have you in a death grip.
7. ALWAYS remember to shoot a zombie in the head. Shooting or hitting them anywhere else will just tick them off.
"Shoot them in the head... In the head!? Is that the only way to kill them?" I thought back at my encounter with the zombie. I had only stabbed it in the stomach. That meant it was still alive, although dead at the same time, tracking it's weird green blood all over the church. I noted that and continued reading the list.
8. Never assume it's all over, just because it's been days since your last zombie encounter. Once you let your guard down, they'll attack again.
9. NEVER go upstairs if a zombie is following you. You'll put yourself in a dead end.
10. Limit what you bring! You don't want to be slowed down.
Well I left my favorite shirt and shrug behind so is that good enough?
