As soon as they entered what looked like the hospital lobby, a figure with bleeding eyes and a blank stare stood behind the reception desk, stiffly watching them. When he heard their footsteps, he even gave them a creepy smile. Freya jumped, startled, but managed to keep it together–for now. Her hand instinctively clenched, only to feel someone gently squeeze back in reassurance.

Realizing it was Louis, Freya calmed down slightly. It’s all fake, she reminded herself. And Louis is right here. There’s nothing to be afraid of. But just as she tried to relax, she heard a thudding sound from the hallway ahead. It didn’t sound like normal footsteps–more like… bouncing?

Wait. Bouncing?

Freya’s brain latched onto one word–zombie.

As the thumping noises got closer, her anxiety climbed. She looked left and right, considering whether they should take the quieter route instead. But Louis and Aiden stood completely still, clearly not planning to move.

“Maybe….

we should go the other way?” she whispered. “I think it’s a zombie. Like the ones in movies and TV. You know, the hopping kind?”

“Freya, you’re being silly,” Aiden replied in a matter–of–fact tone. “At least over here we know something’s coming–we’re mentally prepared. But over there, it’s quiet. What if something suddenly jumps out? That’d be way scarier.”

Freya’s face flushed. She hadn’t thought of it that way. And, well… he had a point. Better to face what you can see than fear what you can’t.

As they spoke, the sound finally reached them. Sure enough, out came a zombie doctor in a white coat, arms stretched stiffly in front of him. He didn’t try to scare them directly, just approached with a lifeless tone and asked, “Who’s sick?”
