The Laughing Corpse
“The two in the bathtub were ruined. Maybe spot remover? The smell was thick and seemed permanent. I put an emergency message on my cleaning service’s answering machine. I didn’t give a lot of details. Didn’t want to frighten them off.
I packed an overnight bag. Two changes of clothes and one penguin with his tummy freshly scrubbed, Harold Gaynor’s file, and I was set. I also packed both guns: the Firestar in its inner pants holster; the Browning under my arm. A windbreaker hid the Browning ...from view. I had extra ammo in the jacket pockets. Between both guns I had twenty-two bullets. Twenty-two bullets. Why didn’t I feel safe?
Unlike most walking dead, zombies can bear the touch of sunlight. They don’t like it, but they can exist with it. Dominga could order a zombie to kill me in daylight just as easily as moonlight. She wouldn’t be able to raise the dead during daylight, but if she planned it right, she could raise the dead the night before and send it out to get me the next day.MoreLess
