He went back downstairs thirty minutes later and found Gareth's five men in the lobby exactly where he'd left them which he took as a reasonable sign and looked at the chain man who seemed to be the one the others oriented around when Gareth wasn't present.
"What's your name," Michael said.
The man looked at him. "Damon."
"Damon. You five are going to clear the floors between here and six. Every Rotter still in this building. You find anything bigger than a standard Rotter you come back here and tell me before you do anything about it."
Damon looked at him. "Just clear them."
"Just clear them."
Damon stared at him.
"Long story," Michael said. "Clear the floors."
Damon looked at the other four men and then back at Michael and then picked up his chain and looked at the stairwell door.
"How are we supposed to know zombies are on the floor?" he said.
"You'll know when you see it," Michael said and went back upstairs.

Gareth found him on the watchtower an hour later.
