Before, it was usually Wayne Warner and Leo Hale who walked the dog.
They usually chose to do it at night when there were fewer people around.
But this time, as soon as the door opened, Treasure seemed to catch a peculiar scent and bolted off in one direction.
Wayne Warner heard the commotion downstairs and followed Nina Jacobs out the door.
The two of them followed behind Treasure.
Nina Jacobs couldn't help but wonder what Treasure had found.
As they went further down a more secluded path, she realized something was wrong.
It was the smell of blood.
The metallic stench grew stronger the farther they went.
It was accompanied by a putrid odor she recognized.
'Is this... the smell of a zombie?'
Nina Jacobs raised her guard, and behind a row of red bricks, she found a convulsing figure on the ground.
It was a woman.
Her condition was clearly a precursor to zombification.
Treasure was barking incessantly at the woman.
"Treasure, quiet."
