WHO: Den and Finn and later Finn and Rory.
WHAT: A happy adventure. Except zombies may be involved. And this may not be so happy.
WHERE: Ossining
WHEN: July 3rd
RATING: TBD. Probably PG-13 for zombies.
STATUS: In progress.
Den did not always trust every tidbit he heard from the passing wayfarer. When one told him they believed that the zombies could be cured by force feeding them spinach, he'd politely nodded goodbye. When another told him that wakers were repelled by a mixture of mistletoe and salt, Den had politely changed the subject. But when he'd encountered a stranger who told him about rumors of a rebel safe house at a prison, Dennis had only one thought. If Aurora Everett was alive somewhere, she'd be with rebels.
He reached Ossining in the mid to late afternoon, and had stopped there. Partly because he wasn't quite sure how to proceed, and partly because it seemed like as good place as any to look for supplies. Bullets for one thing, would be good. Den was running low on those, and they were not something he wanted to run out of. The streets of the city seemed clear enough, but Den remained wary. If dogs could sense calm instead of fear, zombies would be like dogs. Even the non-dog ones.
Den was passing near the door to an old video rental place when he heard the door knob turn. The noise startled him, and he took a step back. A zombie strolling out of a rental shop seemed unlikely, but Den had his bat ready anyway. Better to be safe than dead or bitten.
