Anno Zombus Year 1 (Book 9): September - Plot & Excerpts
morning Apocalypse Girl snored next to me as I lay awake for most of the night, wondering what fucked up situation her mother, my Boss, was likely to send us into next. As far as I knew there was only The Righteous and the extraterrestrial bastards that had overrun what remained of Sydney. Which would we have to deal with next, and how much of a break would we be likely to receive before being sent out once more? As I watched her sleeping, I wondered what might have happened between us had the world not ended almost as soon as the two of us met. I realised that the Dead probably began rising at least a day or two before the end of the year, maybe even as long as a week. It hit me that just about anyone dealing with it at the very beginning would have had a hard time believing what he or she might have been seeing. Nobody is really prepared to have their dead loved ones trying to take a bite out of them, after all. It wasn’t that long before she began to stir, opening her eye to look into my own. Had she not met me, she’d at least still have both of them. She’d likely not be pregnant, too, and thinking about it, would likely not have survived as long as she had. Neither would I, for that matter. In the last nine months, there were precisely two people that I’d trust with my life itself. Fortunately for me, Viking went out every time I did. As for Apocalypse Girl, we’d saved each other more times than I could count by now.
