ZOMBIE TIP

While zombie movement is slow and spasmodic (except when prey is within reach), evidence suggests that a recently zombified athlete or a ghoul with unusually long legs will shamble at a faster rate than one who had been less mobile in life. This may be why no reports of zombie outbreaks beginning in nursing homes have ever been recorded.

Jermaine pulled out his BB gun and fired. Missed, I guess. No reaction from Basketball Zombie.

He was, like, from home plate to the pitcher’s mound now. Fifty feet, tops. Real close.

“Jermaine! Take Honor and the dog and get out of here!” I yelled.

I was the big brother. I was the one with the bat. I had to do this.

But what was I supposed to do when my target was about two feet taller than me?

I ran toward the swings, waving the bat. The zombie changed direction. He was following me. Good. Jermaine ushered Honor toward home. Mr. Snuffles picked up the severed leg and went with them. (I guess it was dinnertime in doggy world.) Maybe I should have just ran to stay ahead of the zombies and then made for home as soon as Jermaine could get Honor and the dog out of the park and away.

Basketball Zombie was pretty fast now he had the scent. He must have been twice as fast as the regular zombies. This wasn’t good.

He cornered me over by the swings. I didn’t have a lot of room. I jumped up onto a swing. It made me taller, sure, but have you ever tried to use a baseball bat from the seat of a swing? The hanging chains were in the way, and I couldn’t get my balance. Dang, this was a bad idea!

Basketball Zombie stretched out to grab me. He had real long arms as well as legs.

Oh boy. I was in all kinds of trouble now.
