Calm down. That's what the zombie had said. Zosime paused. "D-don't come near me!" Her body was on high alert but her brain was sending these weird signals. Something like Don't worry. You're safe. She wanted to run, but her leg hurt, and her stomach was doing cartwheels as if it had never stopped falling from the window.
She stayed where she was to try to comfort her but she sat down to show she wasn't going to leave.
"Try not to be so loud. They may be brainless but they still know that yelling means people." She explained, trying to get her to calm down. She did not want to get her away from more zombies.
Zosime watched in horror and awe at the zombie at her feet. She didn't let it show, though. Her face resumed its stony mask. "Don't touch me." Zosime let out a shaky breath. "But get me out of here." What is going on?
”Umm…alright?” She said, suddenly intimidated by her. ”Where do you want to go?” She asked as she stood up. Probably out of the city but that's probably suicide.
(sorry school)
Zosime scoured her mind for ideas. You didn't really think this through, did you?
Shut up.
"Back to my house. I have… things I need to collect." Zosime mentally scolded herself for almost revealing too much of her plan. How do you tell someone- a zombie- that they need to protect you so that you can destroy it and all its kind? Spoiler alert: you don't. Zosime felt that she was going to be doing a lot of lying in the next twenty-four hours.
She nodded. Not much else she could do. What was she going to do? Run away from the person that cause her to be able to understand? What if it went away after she left her? She couldn't do that. If she choose to do anything other than help her, she figured she would either lose her conscience or die.
"Where is that?" She asked as she stood up. She tried to look as non threatening as possible, as to not get her head bashed in. She had seen what had happened to other zombies and it wasn't pretty. It never bothered her before, why did it bother her now?
