"These aren't zombies, gramps."

"Doesn't mean they can't hear, genius."

"Zatknis'!" I grunt.

"Doesn't mean every little sound is going to attract them like stink on a poop wagon."

I follow. "Hey guys, miss me? Of course you didn't."
"I was hoping you'd follow," I whisper.

"Why?" I whisper back.

"Why?" I whisper back.
"Because Mr. Aroth is right. We need the manpower, and we can't just dispose of you without killing you."

"Without killing me? Yeah, that's great for my developing mind!"

"Without killing me? Yeah, that's great for my developing mind!"
"Look, they're the oldest ones. Pay attention to what they have to say or get out."

"That's not what I meant. What I meant was, you saying they couldn't get rid of me without killing me isn't going to help me trust them."

"That's not what I meant. What I meant was, you saying they couldn't get rid of me without killing me isn't going to help me trust them."
"There's nothing else I can say. Sorry if I 'hurt' your feelings. Just trust us. We're not gonna kill you unless you go insane and try to kill us. Okay? Good."

"No need to be an star fish about it. I'm fifteen in an apocalypse with a bunch of men in their twenties and one nearing death by the minutes, of course I'm going to have a little stress."

I continue silently singing my song.
