OK Peter definitely needs to barricade the door. Nothing good can come of those number combinations!

WV: rearvisp. A defence mechanism for when one is being chased by slowly-shuffling animated corpses. Visps are anathema to zombies.

Hehe, Darren, you signed your post using your V word :)

Peter is getting quite the reputation around town, eh?

I hope Peter has his cellphone nearby.

At least Charlotte earned her bedpan injury.

I had hoped the zombie would turn out not to be evil. Oh, well.

Aaaaaaaah! I'm scared! There's nobody around to help Peter out of this one!

Never good when a creapy dead person smiles like that at you. At least she didn't get the restraints and strap him down to the bed.

Well get the bed pan ready, Peter is going to hit it with the pan if it comes in. Then again this thing could just be messing with Peters mind.

I hope everything is going ok for you Darren, getting a little worried.

(Sorry, in a place where access to teh internets in limited...but you guys waited for me!)

Very much enjoying the story so far - it's a real horror story, in my opinion the scariest so far, perhaps rivalled by the Trick-or-Treaters. Peter just can't catch a break - shunted from crisis to crisis...

Also thank you Um the Muse for being nice to me a few pages back.

Why would the wound be cleaned if his clothes were still on?Normally they cut off the clothes and then wash the body,and only when they are going to do the autopsy. WV:proodleg.What happens when you die,become a evil zombie,and discover your leg is broken.

I hope that you are just waiting to write the thirteenth comment or something. This isn't like you. I hope everything is OK?

Hey everybody,

Sorry about that. I just posted an explanation on the main page for my absence, but I wanted to tell you guys thanks for your concern and sorry I didn't say something sooner.

I just literally don't have another page to post yet, and I kept thinking "TODAY I'll write more," and yet I never got to do it. I'll try hard to get at least a few pages scraped together this weekend.

Sorry...guess the unlucky confluence of 666 and 13 got me...

And I like your suggestion, Um. I think...

...I'll do...

by Darren Pillsbury said...

...JUST THAT!

BOO HAA HAAAA!

Again, sorry I've been out of communication. I'll let you know more over the weekend.

Whew. Good to know you're alright.

Hey, maybe we can all pitch in for different directions that the story can take.

I'm thinking that Peter will need an ally, especially if this isn't the only zombie out there. Therefore, I see three possibilities: one or both of the nurses help him, the wheelchair lady goes to get help, or the zombie master is so sure of victory that he *wants* Peter to get his grandfather.

I still think that the two nurses know at least something (since the wheelchair lady does, and nurses are notorious for gossipping) and are probably in on it.

If you're looking to add a new character, wheelchair lady might know of someone (maybe a priest or some kind of mystic?). It might be nice if Peter got some kind of weapon. He could sure use one!
