Almost evening…

The door of the wooden cabin was forced open, startling Flos from doing her usual household chore of sewing and patching up clothes.

A man comes in and his appearance is of a man who has survived through a jungle of wild beasts. He takes a few steps forward and falls to his knees.

Flos: CALA!

Flos puts the clothing aside and quickly moves towards him.

Cala: Flos…

Cala recognizes his home and his loving wife even he feels weak and tired with injuries all over his body.

Cala: Flos... We must leave this place…

Flos: Leave?

Cala: The dead... The dead now walk among the living!

Cala says before he faints into the arms of Flos.

Flos: Cala, don’t scare me! Wake up!

Flos tries to shake Cala awake.

Shang: It will not do him any good if you do that. Bring him to his bed.

Shang says when he comes over after hearing the commotion.

This is a first time Flos seeing this situation and she has no idea what to do. She can only rely on Shang.

As Flos brings Cala in by lifting under his shoulder, Shang takes a look outside.

Shang’s thoughts: The dead now walk among living…

Shang thinks as he looks at the moon in the sky.

He then looks down on the ground and notices that the usual color of the ground has become black.

Shang goes down on one knee and is about to touch the ground when he hears Flos’ cry for help.

Flos: Shang, come here quick! That’s something wrong with Cala!

Forgetting to close the door, Shang stands up and goes into Cala and Flos’s room.

Shang: What happen?

Shang asks when he enters

He sees a bandaged and half naked Cala on bed and his expression looks pale.

Flos: I don’t know. I think he’s dying. He isn't eating anything I have given him.

Flos says with a pale expression.

The man she loved is dying in front is something she does not want.

Shang: Calm down. Let me take a look.

Shang goes over to Cala and checks up on him.

Shang’s thoughts: Is this poison or zombie infection?

Shang thinks as he notices the black veins coming out of the bandaged injuries.

Shang’s thoughts: Maybe Antidote might do the trick.

Shang: Flos, if you don’t mind, I will feed him something that might help him.

Flos: Whatever you do, please don’t let him die.

Ale: Mother? What’s with the noise.

Ale enters the room while rubbing his eyes.

Flos: It’s nothing, dear. Be a good boy and go to your room now.

Flos tries not to alarm her child.

Ale: Yes, Mother.

Flos: I leave him to you, Shang.

Shang: I will do my best.

As Flos takes Ale back to his room, Shang takes out the green potion and forces it into Cala’s mouth as he does not want to drink anything.

Shang shuts Cala’s mouth before he can struggle and vomit the contents.

His pale expression changes as the Antidote kicks in.

After a while, Cala stops struggling and pats Shang’s hand to release his hold.

Shang: How are you feeling?

Shang says as he releases his hold.

Cala: Slightly better. You’re the worst healer I ever had. What kind of healer forces their medicine down their patients’ throat?

Shang: Sorry, I am no healer. If you want a nice healer, your wife have to walk for miles to look for one and by the time she comes back, who knows what you have become.

Cala:... I am sorry.

Shang: I am all good. I am more interested to hear about the dead now walks among the living.

Cala: Yes, the dead...we have to move out of here first.

Shang: The man of the house is in bed. Do you think they can move without you?

Cala: I…

Shang suddenly rises up.

Shang: Are you being followed when you come back?

Cala: Not that I remember. Why?

Shang: We have intruders.

Shang runs back to the area where he left the door open.

As he enters, he sees two skeletons who are wearing the same medieval armor which he had saw in the forest, walking in the living room area of wooden cabin and one more skeleton entering from the door.

Shang’s thoughts: Dead man walking huh… But to me, It's Clobberin' Time!

Shang slams both of his fists together.
