[Major West, all things considers, sounds remarkably calm and in charge.]

What you are witnessing, those of you who've found your way into port, is Infection. Don't come into contact with any Infected persons. Cover your mouth, nose and-- if possible-- eyes. The virus is highly contagious and spreads through bodily fluids. Should you or anybody in your group become exposed to the Infection, you have less than a minute to put them down.

And I suggest that you do put them down.

They are not your loved ones. Your friends, your family, your... wardens or inmates. They are Infected. The smallest act of mercy may cost you your life. Don't be foolish.

[A pause.]

Billy. Adam. Tell me you're still alive.

A rural area. Trees, a cabin... According to this map we've found, there's a town nearby.

[Her ire comes up then.]

No, Henry, and you stop that. Whether you live through this or die, you are going to come home. And you're going to see Billy and me and everyone else. I promise you that. But this place is going to test you. Your goal needs to be that you get everyone back safe. If one goes down, then that many, and so on. The last thing you do is give up. Do you understand me, soldier?

Then you need to kill them. There are no alternatives.

Great. Thanks.
From: [identity profile] thatlibbychick.livejournal.com
West, how can you be sure that these zombies function the same way as yours? What if the spread of infection is different here?

What if...you end up killing someone who wouldn't even end up infected?

Date: 2010-06-18 10:56 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] major-west.livejournal.com
Because they do function the same way. It's the same Infection. This is my world.

Better safe than sorry.

I'll wait until after they've turned if there aren't a million other things going on. At least then I know the person I know has already died.

That way, then we will know.

You're an adult capable of making your own decisions based on your circumstances. Don't act like I'm telling you to arbitrarily shoot people.

You've got what it takes, Morgan. Just keep your wits about you.
