Characters: Sirius "Zombie" Black and Severus Snape
When: Afternoon of the 24th
Where: Somewhere in the Safezone
Rating: R to be safe
Summary: Sirius escaped the clinic in the middle of the night and succumbed to the rest of his symptoms somewhere in the Safezone. After his heart finally stops, his transformation into a zombie is complete and he begins to roam the area, looking for something to eat. Snape comes to find him after promising Sirius hours before that he would kill him before it was too late.
Once the dementia and paranoia had fully settled into his mind, Sirius had fled the clinic during the night, wary of everything that was around him. He wandered the Safezone for some time, trying to figure out just what was going on and where a safe place to hide would be. As the fever grew and his brain deteriorated more and as his body began to shut down on him, Sirius collapsed against a building, silently praying that the pain would go away. He sat there for hours, motionless due to the "illness" running through his veins, helpless to do anything to ease the agony.
His mind had left him completely by the time the coma had hit and he spent his last hours against that wall, waiting to die. When that time came, his body laid motionless, growing colder and colder by the minute.
Several minutes passed before his body suddenly made a jerking motion. With a low moan, he opened his eyes (which were still devoid of any sort of life) and scanned the area. There was no food in sight...
He pulled himself up slowly and began to walk, stumble, off in a random direction in search of something, someone, to eat. That was the only thing on his mind right now, the only motivation he had left.
Sirius Black was gone. His reanimated corpse was all that remained.
