From the Zombie Roleplay a while back.

Kim sighed. There wasn't any time for these petty needs. She nodded and followed the girl eagerly, ready to blow this Popsicle stand.

"You said that this happened in Japan? How long ago did it start?" The more she could learn about this...situation, the better. If that's what you could call it...

At the next level of the apartment complex, the song "Mary Jane" by Tom Petty was blaring through the open door of an apartment. A girl screamed and stumbled out of the place, very disheveled and fearful. Her eyes were stricken with horror at the sight of whatever was out of view of Kim and her newfound comrade. Kim stepped forward, gripping the rod. A zombie stumbled out and lurched for the girl. In a strong swoop, Kim's curtain rod collided with the zombie's skull, making an awful cracking sound. The zombie seemed to move, so she slammed him one more time, this time crushing it's skull between the rod and the brick wall of the apartments. He drooped down to the floor, lifeless. She was breathing hard, disbelief of her actions coursing though her mind. She shook her head, pushing the thoughts away and forced her eyes onto the terrified girl who still stared straight ahead.

"He...he attacked me as soon as I came home...we were in a fight this morning but..I-I don't..." The girl managed through short, terrified breaths. She began to tremble heavily and Kim turned to Mura.

"Here, watch for other zombies while I check her." Kim knelt down and grabbed the girl's arms. She pulled them where she could see them, seeing a bit of blood but no marks or signs of being bitten. "Listen to me," she said, shaking the girl a bit. "Look at me now or you'll end up like him." The girl tore her eyes away from the dead body and turned them to Kim. "What this is...it's a war. We're still living and it's our job to keep going forth. If not, we'll end up dead, kill off our families and friends. Do you want that?! Answer me!" Kim slapped the girl to bring her attention.

"No..what can I do?" The girl said, wiping her tears away.

"You're going to go into that apartment and grab a weapon. Anything, I don't care. Kill Bill here has a sword, I've got one gun and a curtain rod."

"That's a nice curtain rod..." The girl stated. Fear still haunted her eyes, but she nodded. "Okay, I can do that..." Her voice was soft.

"Mura, where's your apartment? I'm going to keep with this girl while she gets something if you want to go ahead. If not, wait with us, alright?" Kim turned her attention to the girl. "What's your name, anyways?"

"Lily," she said as she rose to her feet.

"Alright, Lily, you're good. We can do this."
