Rewarding Loyalty

While Ryan and the others were waiting to put their plans in motion, Zane had gone out early in the morning after returning from his daily scavenging, and had spent the early morning clearing the undead from the school grounds.

The fact of the matter was prior to the apocalypse, this high school boasted some 3,000+ students, and enough faculty to look after them all. By now, less than a hundred were still breathing. The others had all either been devoured by the Undead or turned into one of them.

And though Zane and his followers had cleared a significant number of Undead from the School Grounds, there were always more entering the campus. Or there had been prior to Zane locking the gates that sealed off the local high school from the rest of the city.
