Kenny- "Oh my gawd, I can't haul another thing..." He flopped on a mattress sitting in the living room. Bryce was sitting on one end and bounced around from the shock. Bryce- "Ahh... Yeah this could be worse."
Kenny- "Says you! You moved like, that lamp."
Bryce- "Hey, it was heavy. It's like, full of metal I think."
Kenny- "I think you're only used to lifting a doob to the mouth man, haha."
Bryce- "That might be. I've got some kind of talents."
Kenny- "Yeah? Like what?"
Bryce- "Ah, you'll find out. By the time it's too late..."
Kenny- "Whatever dude. Hey, who's our neighbors? I don't even know."
Bryce- "Uh I haven't even been paying attention. I saw Abdul and that British guy. Oh yeah, duh. Stevie. Um, Menkowicz? He lives right over here. Yeah."
Kenny- "Who's he roomin' with?"
Bryce- "I dunno, I just know he lived here right before the soup went down."
Kenny- "Oh yeah, I forgot your parents owned this place. That's weird... Did you like, paint these rooms or something?"
Bryce- "Nah... I just help out a little bit. Nothin' big."
Kenny- "OK so... what do you think about all this shit? All these weird people..."
Bryce- "Honestly? You're weird people to me at this point. But cool."
Kenny- "Better be, or you're sleeping on newspapers, haha. Serious though... I know we can't talk about whether the ladies are hot, but do you think anybody's gonna start some shit or flip out?"
Derek- "Why can't we talk about the ladies? Ah, decorum I guess. You're a classy dude Kenny. Hell, I hope my girlfriend gets back. Her apartment's in this building, that's why I'm here."
Kenny- "Oh damn! That's why you have that cat... That sucks man."
Bryce- "I like the cat."
Kenny- "What do you think though? I think that doctor's gonna go crazy maybe. So weird."
Bryce- "Oh yeah. Straight bonkers. Was either of you at.. Doretta Harman's place last night? Just thinking of bonkers..."
Kenny- "The explody lady? Oh gawd..."
Derek- "...Yeah. I don't wanna talk about it man."
Bryce- *sigh*" Just one thing though... was she just psycho or was she really like, possessed? I kept hearing that word tonight. First I hear zombie and then possessed and--"
Kenny- "DUDE. She EXPLODED. She was floating around and shit."
Derek- "...Yeah. I-I-.. I nailed her hand to the wall because it was trying to crawl away. F-fucked up man..."
Kenny- "Derek, hey, take it easy. Let's not talk about that shit. Bryce, why don't you go look around and see if somebody else knows about that if you wanna know so hard."
Bryce- "Yeah, alright." (Bryce strolled out.)

There was a knock at the door!
Bryce answered. Bryce- "What now?" It was Seth, changed into different clothing and with still wet hair from bathing, presumably. Bryce- "Oh um, sorry about that. We aren't being attacked by giants, are we?"
Seth- "Haha... No. I just thought I'd come see our laid-up young man."
Bryce- "Yeah... Derek. Come in." Seth found Derek on a bed that had been moved into the living room. Kenny, semi-torpid, nearby. Seth- "Is he awake?"
Bryce- "Uh... not really. Sometimes he'll say some weird shit. You should check out that cat, it's huge. It's also a total whore-cat, it'll do anybody."
Seth- "Just my kind, haha..." Seth picked up the large furry cat. It was instantaneously purring. "Aw yeah, good for the self esteem." Kenny blinked and looked at Seth. Kenny- "Oh! Uh, oh yeah. Zombie watch. If Derek taps out, and starts bustin' shells, Pshoo pshoo! Brain exploding fist. It's one of my used-car salesman skills."
Seth- "Haha.. He on some pretty good meds?"
Kenny- "What? I haven't been touching the stuff."
Derek- *snort snore* Seth came a little closer with the cat to look at Derek. He seemed hale, perhaps the reason why Kenny felt free to be jokey about it. His chest rose and fell steadily, and his breathing was clear.Seth- *sigh* "Good sight to see. Hope that new guy's doing this well."
Bryce- "I'm pretty sure Ashley's was worse, but uh.. he'll probably be fine." Seth shook his head, and closed his eyes. Seth- "I dunno man. What would we have done differently? Was this as good as things could have gone? I don't feel like it..."
Bryce- "Nah, I mean... I'm not sure. I was out there, and the only way things could've gone better, was if we knew more about ghosts beforehand, and we didn't."
Seth- "Yeah... Let's hope we don't have to learn everything the hard way."
Bryce- "Yeah."
Kenny- "What else is there to learn? Hope not much. Creeps we run into been fancy enough." Seth shook his head slowly.Seth- "Yeah. Hope so too." Kenny looked back at Derek, and started to settle back down again. Bryce gestured for Seth to go a little bit further into the room and sit down.Bryce- "Really... No way. No way we could've done anything better. Although, my advice for the future, if we don't have a pokey stick, the second you see a ghost, even if it's a mute ghost, flick that Bic.
Seth- "For sure. I'm glad that little nerdy guy talked to me about that, we woulda been fucked. I wasn't even sure if it would work, but he was right."
Bryce- "Yeah, and Sarah gave us the warning about the eyes, though apparently that's just the dark ghosts, that's why Abdul was fucked."
Seth- "Guess it coulda been worse. Yeah. Hmmm..." He snuggled into the furry kitty cat.Bryce- "Her name's Jenny."
Seth- "This is nice, my cat's not the snuggling type yet. *My* cat I say, ha... Maybe their owners will come back tomorrow, who knows."
Bryce- "Yeah... Guess it's still early enough to hold out hope."
Seth- "You lived here with your parents?"
Bryce- "Ah... I dunno. I was just here temporarily. I haven't had a place that was really mine for a while."
Seth- "I bet your parents are fine."
Bryce- "I... really don't even wanna think about it."
Seth- "Sorry..."
Bryce- "What about you?"
Seth- "My parents?"
Bryce- "Yeah..."
Seth- "Hah... they're on the other side of the country, might as well be in China. I don't really care. That's cold, uh.. I mean, I talk to them once or twice a year maybe, just my mom usually. Christmas call, you know. They aren't worrying about me, I 'm sure."
Bryce- "Why wouldn't they be worrying about their only kid?"
Seth- "Oh no, they got others. Two brothers who are still in state."
Bryce- "Oh, I dunno why I assumed that. I'm an only kid."
Seth- "Yeah I went to college here and never went back. No one seemed to mind that hard, though I'm sure they'd prefer if I went back for holidays."
Bryce- "Oh, guess they can't blame you now." Seth laughed a little bitterly, and went back to petting to the friendly cat.Bryce- "I wonder if it is better out in the suburbs. I dunno enough about what's going on, but a lot of people seem to think that it would be. Maybe there's whole countries that haven't been hit."
Seth- "Maybe... Yeah, gotta be hopeful. The trouble for them might be down the road, they run out of food... we got lots to eat around here, lots of places to scavenge."
Bryce- "Yeah... it's complicated. Some people were saying that we oughta get the hell out of here. What do you think of that?"
Seth- "...I don't know. I go out there, I don't know how someone can do it. Where would you go?"
Bryce- "Oh you know, I'm sure they're all picturing us going to some compound in Montana or something."
Seth- "Heh, yeah. I dunno, I really want to help people. I think there's a lot of people around here still, you go far away... there's no one. What do you think?"
Bryce- "Y'know, it was weird... This was some kind of attempt to kill everybody, how well has it worked? Will there be more? I wish I knew more. Maybe I don't..."
Seth- "You're a smart guy... you were quick to figure out that stuff with the ghosts. I bet you'll figure things out before the rest of us, certainly before me."
Bryce- "Oh man... I just don't want anybody to rely on anything... that has to do with me. Haha... Too much pressure." Seth smiled and shrugged.Bryce- "Well, what are you gonna do with the rest of your night?"
Seth- "Oh yeah, I should go visit our other sickly boy."
Bryce- "Alright. You will be missed, sir." Seth gave him an amused sidelong glance.Seth- "Likewise." And then, he was gone. Bryce sat in his seat.Bryce- *sigh*
He shook his little fists."Argh. I better seduce that guy before he gets his fool ass killed."

Another night... Bryce came in the door and quickly went to his bed. Kenny and Derek were fortunately not around to mock him. He lay down on his face, arms curled at his side, and flipped out for five minutes.
When he came to his senses slightly, his mind was spinning. Man, he needed to get into something... Bryce thought- Oh my GOD! You're so fucking lame! What was that shit? How do you not know how to do a basic freakin' sex act? What kind of homo are you? I've totally blown it! He hates me! He was sweet. It was a brushoff! It seemed sincere. It was a sincere brushoff! You suck! "AAAARRRRRGGGGGGH!" The evening crept in like a bastard, and left him hungry and weak.

Bryce got into the room, locked the door and grabbed a chair and jammed it under the door knob. He paused, looked around again, and grabbed the bed that was sitting in the living room and pushed that against the chair.
He went to the corner by the windows, and thought to himself.There should be a fucking chair over here. WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PLACE?! He kneeled on the beige carpet and looked out the window, seeing a very good view of the building across the street and little else.I don't know what that crazy bastard was hoping to accomplish, but at least he got my mind off that shit. OH MY GAWD! Freakin'... Doctor Draculas! Crazy ass damn... stuff!
He started daydreaming about what if scenarios, what if his family tried to come back for him. It was ridiculous to imagine. He saw his mom, imagining something like June Cleaver transplanted into Night of the Living Dead.
She came to the back door and said "Oh could you please let me in dears?" and in pausing for the pleasantries, she got munched on by zombies. They'd bring her inside, she'd have three gaping holes in her back. There'd be so much blood it would run down to the ground, soaking the floor. She'd say "Oh don't mind me, I'll just take care of myself...!" and Melange and Dr. Vampire would be like "No you gotta get sewn up and stuff" and she'd be like "I don't wanna be a buuuurden to anyone... I don't wanna impose!" and they'd be like arguing with her and Dr. Vampire would be like "This is what people do, we gotta sew you up like a grownup and stuff! It's because you had rutabagas for breakfast, isn't it? Get with the program old lady!" and she'd be like "oh no no, I'm fine, really." and he'd be like "You need to face your problems!" and she'd be like "Noo it's fiiiine..."
--and that's when she turns into a zombie.

An hour or so later... Bryce was awakened by a banging at the door. He stirred from his place on the floor. How the fuck did I fall asleep? Whatever, I needed it. bang bang Kenny's Voice: "Don't do it man! There's uh, lots of reasons to live." bang bang bangHe went to the door.Bryce- "Hang on, motherfucker! Just gotta move some shit."
he moved the furniture out of the way, leaving it in a convenient mess.
Kenny's Voice- "Oh good. Man. Stay with me. You can make it through this, bro!"
Bryce- "Don't be stupid, stupid! I'm fine. Just keepin' out draculas."
He got the door open.
Kenny- "Oh shit man, don't tell me we have draculas now, too. Did they bite somebody yet?"
Bryce- "Just that Micah dude, as far as I know."
Kenny- "Shit, man... Man, wait. Are you yanking my crank?"
Bryce- "The yankingest. Welcome back to your humble abode."
Kenny- "Damn I thought you were a goner. That woulda been real depressing."
He came in and sat on the hastily shoved bed.
Bryce- "I don't aim to depress, believe it or not. What's up man?"
Kenny- "Oh yeah, those folks are back. We got some new people. Pretty sexy!"
Bryce- "Oh yeah, sexy art school kids? I take it by your tone they are relatively intact? No zombie-ism or infected wounds?"
Kenny- "Not that I saw. Yeah, you should go see 'em. It think they're hanging around in the community center. I just meant to come in here and brush my hair - make a good impression, if you know what I mean, haha."
Bryce- "Art school, huh? I wonder what their orientations are?"
Kenny- "Oh, right right right.. I always forget that, that you're representin' the rainbow. Well, one guy probably is... He's hangin' all over the prez. Like that's gonna happen!"
Bryce- "Damn. Guess I gotta go lay the law down."
Kenny- "Good luck, man."
Kenny got up to go groom his unruly locks.
Bryce- Shit. Really? I never thought of that... Seth goes out and rescues people all the time, they'll be falling in love and shit. Son of a bitch! Bryce comported himself, tried to forget Dr. Acula was likely to be at hand upstairs, and went...TO THE COMMUNITY CENTER!

Seth- "OK, here goes..." Seth knocked on the door. No response. He called Bryce's name. He waited a few moments.
A Bryce appeared. Bryce- "Uh... Hi."
Seth- "Hey... You gonna wear that to the party?" Bryce was wearing a tank top, his short shorts, and an open bathrobe. Bryce- "Aw, man. I don't know... Do I have to go?"
Seth- "Aw, I'd really like it. Are you feeling OK?"
Bryce- "I guess. Just... Not feeling sociable."
Seth- "It'll be fun. It's just a casual little get-together. We haven't had one in a long time. Didn't you have fun last time?"
Bryce- "Depends on your definition of fun."
Seth- "Aw, c'mon, sourpuss. You can boogie up with me."
Bryce- "I... I guess I should. *sigh* Give me a few minutes." Seth waited inside the door. Seth- "Hey Jenny. I'd invite you to the party too, but it might be a little too noisy for you." **pet, pet, pet**
Bryce- "Alright. This is as good as it gets. Let's do this junk." Now he was wearing a turquoise velour long-sleeved, collared shirt, with thin goldenrod horizontal stripes. And his short shorts. Seth- "Alright! Slutty's good."
Bryce- "How is this...? Nevermind. Let's go."
Seth- "Hey what happens if you get, you know, excited when you're wearing those? Gotta go face the wall?"
Bryce- "..."

Kenny & Susie were chatting and drinking beer before Susie fell asleep on the couch. Kenny stares off into the distance.

Kenny felt disconsolate. The world sure had gone to shit on him recently. He couldn't bear the idea of facing the others out there. Not yet. They'd be asking questions about his stupid display. Why couldn't they be more like Susie? God, what a sweetheart. She slept peacefully on the couch, curled up with an old sweater like a kitty cat. He longed to touch her face, but more than that, did not want to disturb the peaceful scene. He stood up, stretched, and walked toward the window. It seemed silly, he was walking to the window because he was thinking about Derek and Ione and some ridiculous level of him expected that he might be able to see through that window their return. Outside the world was stark black, and he could only barely make out the outlines of nearby buildings, and vague geometry of the skyline beyond. The stars were brilliant, sparkling in the blue fog of distant galaxies.
Suddenly a face appeared in the window. He thought for a split second he was seeing a reflection, before the face opened its mouth, revealing bloody teeth, and the being whispered to him. Face- "Aw yeah! A yummy believer right at the window for me. Kenny... The fires of hell are waiting for you, ooh aren't they hot? Sooo hot, don't you think?"
Kenny- "..."

A few minutes later, Susie and Bryce came into the room.
Susie- "Um, it's just he's..." Kenny was standing in the living room, looking expectant. Kenny- "..."
Susie- "Kenny, are okay?"
Bryce- "Apparently you were acting weird? Eh...?"
Susie- "Well not weird exactly, but... Are you feeling alright? Maybe, do you need--"
Kenny (?)- "SILENCE MORTALS!"
" ! "

Susie- "KENNY! What--what's wrong with you!?"
Bryce- "He's fuckin' possessed! It's some old Exorcist shit!"
Kenny (?) - "Do you not understand SILENCE?!" Susie and Bryce were thrown against the front door violently."Kenny's soul BURNS IN HELL! Susie, do you feel the fire of HELL?!"
Susie- "N-no! Kenny, stop!"
Bryce- "That ain't Kenny, Susie! But maybe we can save him--"
Kenny- "SUSIE, JOIN US!" He started floating off the ground six inches, black ichor pouring out of his mouth. Susie- "AHHHHHH!!!"
Bryce threw himself on Kenny, trying to knock him down to the couch. It felt like he was jumping on a helium balloon, which slipped out from under his arm, and he landed uselessly on the couch. Kenny- "JOIN US!!"
Little bits of paper and small detritus from the room started whirling around, books fluttering dangerously close to heads. Susie held up her arms for protection as she was scratched with whirling dishes that smashed against the walls into pointy shards. Susie- "AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Ben followed Jackson into Derek's old apartment, finding Stevie holding Susie in his arms while Bryce stood on the other side of floating horrible Kenny. Kenny?- "HAHAHAHA!!! USE THE SWORD, OLD BAG!!! CUT INTO YOUR DEAR FRIEND's SOFT FLESH!!!"

Susie- "NO! Kenny! STOP!!"

Kenny had always seemed a bit 'off' to Ben, but what the hell was up with this? Ben had no real idea of how to handle this. Cutting Kenny with a sword did seem a bit excessive... and breaking his skull with a bokken didn't seem like a better option. And breaking some less vital bones would probably just hurt a lot, except Kenny didn't seem to be in a state where he'd be receptive to pain.
Though that was something Ben could try to verify. Ben- "OUT, VILE DEMON! GO TO HOME!" Ben jabbed at Kenny's abdomen with his hot flare.
