His new reality

meeting those dog was unexpected, during his hunts these days he only meets week zombies or normal zombies that are easy to kill, maybe was the vicinity of the city to cause the rising danger, but he wants to go just a little further because there is a place that he wanted to go, so after he pulled out his pole and cleaned it from the blood with a piece of cloths obtained by tearing a zombies clothes, he started walking, walking to a place that can answer his doubts.

"Theo, will I find Theo there? It's impossible, I only wish that he left some kind of message there"

after a dozen minutes of walking silently, he reached a park, that park was the place that Jack and Theo usually meet on Sunday, at the saw of the park, a nostalgic feeling filled his heart, he couldn't cry but if he could he probably will tear, there was nothing, the usual sound of playing kid and chatting people could not be heard, the lake in the middle was now filled with fallen leaves no ones to care about it

'This park is like me, lonely and void'

[Host will not jump down in the lake right?]

'oh just shut up will ya?! I'm trying to have some deep thought'

Jack was hoping to find some clue about the whereabouts of Theo and so he searched everywhere until he reached a bathroom, there was a zombie in front of it, but he managed to kill the zombie quite easily and searched the insides, nothing there until he found a big mirror, in the mirror there was him, his face visibly shocked, with half-rotten hand, he touched his face, half of it was completely burned off without skin and muscles beneath it was visible, an eye was bloodshot, a big scar cut thought his other eye, his skin kind fells like... dead, his clothes drenched in blood, he was horrible and disgusting even for himself

'this... is... I? well, I kind of expect... this but... this is.. not me'

a feeling of angry possed him as he punched the mirror hard, the shattered mirrors cut his hand and fragments cut his face

[host suffered damage,-1HP]

'This is sick'

his face was a mixture of disgust and angry as he walked out of the bathroom, the sight of the once joyful park welcomed him again, he put aside those thoughts as he focused on his primary objective again

'nothing there, Theo I wish I could be with you right now, maybe then this feeling of loneliness will no longer strain my heart'

the night falls quickly as Jack walks toward his base, as a zombie, he doesn't need to sleep but moving during the night was too dangerous.

and again he was walking on the same paths covered in leaves, not a single soul can be heard, maybe even animals abandoned this forsaken city or worse..., he walked calmly with the mind full of thoughts at this moment nothing seems like to have sense.

he arrived at his base made by a big tree and bushes that cover his surrounding and a bag which Jack put in everything that could be useful, as every night Jack was making some maintenance to his weapon so that doesn't deteriorate

'damn this weapon is in a bad shape, I don't think it will keep up for too long...'

he knows that he has to find a new weapon, and he knows where to find it and the morning comes quickly as Jack organizes his thoughts.

a common zombie, after a person is infected or died it will most probably become a common zombie, nothing special and is only slightly stronger than a weak zombie

[zombie dog]

a normal dog that was being infected or died will become a zombie dog, they are not very strong but people should fear them, as they normally hunt in a group so if underestimate them, it could be a fatal error
