Hungry Sharks in a Sea of Prey

I used to think that Colin was in the wrong, offering up humans to zombies in order to gain more power, but now that I take a critical look at my actions, could I really say that I was doing anything different? 

 

Yes, I was.

 

I was not doing this because I made a deal with the zombies to save my own life at the expense of others. Rather, I was powerful enough that I was the Alpha of an entire zombie city, something that no other human (that I knew of) was able to say. I didn't need them to become more powerful. Instead, they needed me. 

 

And that was all the difference in the world.

 

I smiled as I looked at the preacher in front of me. "These are zombies," I repeated. "Notice the blue and purple hue to them. Not a speck of green to be seen. So, did I lie, or did you?" I continued, stressing the biggest difference between what he said the zombies looked like and what I did.
