We all ride towards a harbor so we can get on a boat. The trip was surprisingly difficult, as nobody wanted to talk except for Iris. And she just wanted to know where Zero went.
After a good 6 hours of driving, you get out of the cars and just have a sit-down. everybody gets some sandwiches from a stand nearby.
Zero won't eat it.
Just tell the thing what happened. It'll be for the best, or at least, amusing.What she doesn't know cannot hurt her.I agree with pink, here. I'm just going to get some fish, and feed him, alright?You'll have to deal with this, you know.You jump, startled by the sudden emergence of sound from right next to you. This the first time she's spoken after Zero's... Incident.
Iris will discover it. How she does it, will be up to you. I'm not coming near that cage.She looks angry. But in that sad sort of way, not furious "
Gonna kill everything" angry. It's kind of worrying.
We'll get to the harbor in a few moments. We can get some fish, he can eat it, he'll be back to normal.I hope that works, but until then he's a liability. A dang-You slap her before she continues. The tension in the air can basically be cut with a butterknife, but Iris thankfully comes leaping out of the nearby bushes.
I caught a squirrel!Sure enough, she has a live squirrel in her mouth. You take it from her, leaving her somewhat disappointed, and you go into the truck and throw it in Zero's cage. You hear sounds of the squirrel being ripped apart.
He doesn't seem to do anything else, so you get everybody inside the trucks again. Iris continues with her questions, so at least you can take your mind off things.
When you arrive at the closest harbor, you're in luck. There are some fresh fish available.
Again, he eats it. Rather messily, guessing from the sounds. Time to just get some zombies in crates for the local cruise ship.
Iiiiiriiiiiis...You look up, startled. The crab you were playing with scuttles off while you are distracted. You knew Zero was still around!
You rush towards the trucks, and open it up, pushing aside the Zero's helpers.
Could you... come a bit closer. Iris? I need something from you.Sure thing! You say. And you walk right up to... A cage?
Weird.
Please... Come a bit closer to the bars.You stand up on your hind legs. Zero's face is smiling at you! You instantly smile untill...
Something's off about him. He's not really looking at you, or at anything from the looks of it. Suddenly his eyes gain focus again, and he looks right at you. His hair is sticking to his forehead, and some blood is dripping off.
You carefully take a step back. He's a bit sc-
Zero lunges at you through the bars but the bars stop him from getting to you. He starts screaming and yelling in the most terrifying voice you ever heard as you sprint out of the truck.
Told you to warn the brat. Now look at this. Fine job, pinkie.It's only temporary, don't worry. TW says whilest attempting to comfort Iris.
It'll be fine, alright? We'll figure something out. Really.Iris just keeps crying. You honestly can't tell if it's from the scare or what's happening with zero.
Or maybe she isn't too happy about you not telling her? Fine job princess.Shut up. You accidently say out loud.
You clutch your head as she continues to chastise you. You stumble off somewhere. You need some time to.. figure things out.
