We hang around like a bunch of , until Tiberius finally stirs "We’ve gotta get out of here"

"What about Danny?" Mark asks

"Do you have any idea where his cell is?" Tiberius replies

"No"

"Then forget about him"

"Wait aas I stare at the remains of Dr Cerveris

"You want to tuck into his brain?" Cathy sneers "Good luck - I doubt Rage left h now that you mention it"

Scraps of brain dot the interior of the dead doctor’s head Ignoring ers around it, then suck theer blobs When the rest of the zom heads see that, they push in and copy ers, though I got the lion’s share of as left

When we’ve scraped Dr Cerveris’s skull completely clean, I return to it, stick a hand into the hole in the doctor’s head, then feel around until I find the back of the eye that Rage didn’t puncture I push softly while cutting around the flesh at the front of the socket with ?" Cathy squeals "Has she gone mad?"

"I don’t think so," Tiberius et out of here, we’ll have to get through doors that require fingerprints and a retinal scan"

Dr Cerveris’s eye oozes froently in onna cut off one of his hands?"

There’s a pause Then Gokhan bends and starts slicing

"This is so gross," Cathyand I can tell she’s trying hard not to s too It shouldn’t be funny, but it is I’m sure I’ll feel awful later when I look back on this, but right now I’h

"Nice of him to lend us a hand," Tiberius deadpans, and I alhter I’m not the only one

"Come on," Mark snaps He doesn’t find this in any way entertaining "If we’re to escape, we’ll need to be quick, before they find us"

"Who are they, Worm?" Peder snorts

"The soldiers or the people who attacked" Mark shrugs "One’s as bad as the other, right?"

"What if they’re here to free us?" Cathy says "Maybe it’s an army of zom heads co and the spiders "No," I sigh "I don’t knoho or what they are, but they haven’t coht We need to split ASAP, before we end up like Dr Cerveris"

I start off in the direction that Rage sent us, not wanting to risk a run-in with him, and after a moment of hesitation the rest of them fall in behind me

I think about the butchered Dr Cerveris as we progress, worrying about what happened It wasn’t the fact that Rage killed hie of losing control The sight of the brain triggered so inside me, and I almost switched off and went into full-on zombie ht then If I hadn’t recovered one after Reilly If I’d killed him and feasted, that would have been the end of me I know that fresh brains are essential for revitalizeds, that I need to eat to hold on to iven in to risly, inhuladly, all too happy to leaveontonow Soon I’ll hit a critical point and then it’s bye-bye, Becky Smith, hellooooo, zom-B!
