Jillybean let out a little shriek and jumped. It was Christian. He had come creeping up behind her sometime in the last five minutes. Although his cocksure smile had not changed, the rest of him had gone through a bit of a transformation. His torn-up white shirt was no longer white. It was black and damp with more zombie blood. In the few places it was still dry, it was grey with dirt. His blue jeans were torn and filthy, and on his head, somewhat like a tea cozy, was a thick mat of cobwebs.

The simple act of taking all of this in provided the little girl with enough time to get over her fright. “I was just going to get another barrel in case you needed an extra helping of rescuing.”

“I didn’t need help to begin with,” he told her. “As you can see, I got out of the situation on my own.”

Did you see that? Ipes asked, speaking out of the side of his mouth. A spider just went into his shirt. I swear I saw it. It just crawled in and now there’s no way of knowing where it is. It could be in his bellybutton or his…

“Hush Ipes.”

Or his armpits. I bet they’re hairy and I bet the spider is all nestled and invisible, just hiding in there making babies. I think I might be sick. Jillybean, we need to check each other head to toe. Start with me. Look for egg sacks. Oh sweet Lord! I felt something on my back!

Christian scratched himself, making Ipes gag. Jillybean whispered, “That’s enough, Ipes. Do you want to go to timeout?”

“Something wrong with your friend?”

“Nothing a ziplock bag won’t cure.” She had meant it to be a threat, but Ipes was all for it. In his mind, suffocating was a better way to go out than having spiders burrowing into his brain.

This brought out a grunting laugh from Christian. He came to stand next to the little girl. “Man, did you see those things? The big zombies I mean. They were like…” He could only blink dazedly. “I don’t know what they were like. They had to be over a thousand pounds and they were unstoppable. How on earth did they get so big?”

“They eated a lot. You know, a lot, a lot. See those silos? They came from there and all they do is eat and eat. It’s horrible.”

“Who votes that we get the hell out of here?” He had his hand raised. “There’s no way we’ll get any gas with those…those creatures around. This place is a death trap.” Jillybean was slow to say anything. She was watching the monsters watch the fire while his words: This place is a death trap swirled in her mind.

Christian took her silence to mean she was still mad at him. “Hey, look. Maybe I shouldn’t have been so blunt back there. You know, about the cursing and me telling you what to do. So, I guess what I’m saying
