At first, the idea of being stuck in this meatbag dwelling sector at night seemed like a wonderful idea. So many targets, such an open field, and so many things that could be repurposed for use as weapons

The bounty hunter ran towards his roommate, calling out his name. Seeing how terrified the assassin droid was, Lockdown gripped his arm and said, "Get ahold of yourself!"

But now was not the time to get fragged over it. "Look, we'll talk about this later. Let's just get to that hardware store."

HK sighed, trying to reroute his brain away from adrenaline production and to focus more. "Agreement: If I am going to be surrounded by infectious drone meatbags, I would rather have something to cut them open with."

But he had to admit, this particular situation threw him for a loop. He'd half-expected to be stuck in town, since sunset came and the nurses didn't. But this? Zombies? Really? What the hell was up with that? Well, there was only one thing to do in a situation like this. He would have been glad to have their Evoker, but that was still all right, really.
One of the zombies got within punching range, and he grinned, cracking his knuckles once before delivering a hard right hook to its skull.
[SEES zombie kickassery time go.]

[from here]The alley seemed like a good idea at the time. This brought to mind the question as to whether Junpei's ideas were ever good. The alley was narrower than he'd expected with dumpsters and the other stuff people stick in alleys. His ankle hurt, but the bleeding had stopped and he wasn't really paying attention to it. He was more worried about the twenty zombies cornering him in the alley ( ... )

At least those first couple of zombies had gone down without too much of a fight, Akihiko thought, looking around for the next wave. Before he found that, though, he heard an all-too-familiar scream from a nearby alleyway.
"Iori? Stay where you are, I'll cover you," he called out, running over to where the junior was. "You take what's right in front of you and I'll take what's behind them."
Without waiting for more word, he aimed a hard punch at the back of the closest creature's head.

Having his senpai there boosted Junpei's confidence a little, feel much better knowing he wasn't going to die alone. Taking the chair with both hands, Junpei swung it hard (and much better) at the zombie right in front of him. It hit with a sickening crunch.
"That's a nasty smell,' he called out, wrinkling his nose at the scent of the goo coming from the broken parts of the zombie. Still, he hefted the chair and smashed it against the zombie again. As long as it even twitched, he'd beat it with the chair. And then some.

That just left two more to clear out, and since Junpei had one of them handled, he went for the second, this time punching it at the neck - hopefully that would wind up being easier than constantly trying to knock their heads in.

He placed a hand over his nose as realization sank in. The men and women around them had turned, no different from the influence of Shadows but with a twist the child had only seen in horror films. What were they called again? Walking dead? Animated corpses? The shock of it all had removed the exact term from his head.
Run. His heart skipped several beats in succession as he eyed his companions. Completely stationary. Run. Or be killed. He couldn't afford to let them be killed.
And so, Ken screamed, reaching out to grab at Phoenix's hand. "RUN!"

For a moment, it was all too much, and he froze in place. None of this made sense. They had just been talking on one of the street corners at sunset, and now? The scene was like something out of a bad horror movie, and it was a little too surreal.
When Phoenix grabbed his hand and yelled, that was enough to break the moment's spell. "R-right," he stammered, trying to swallow down a wave of nausea. "Where to?"

He whirled a head back once to answer Edgeworth. "Anywhere! Anywhere we can barricade ourselves!"

There were zombies everywhere, and Marcus found himself having to knock and smack them aside with his arms as he charged down the street to avoid getting grabbed. They clawed and scratched at him but none managed to bite him.
He could hear Stefan and Scourge behind him, and the fading sounds of the voices of the other team. They seemed a lot slower getting their act together. Marcus wasn't sure if Scourge had any notable powers or not, but now wasn't really a good time to ask. People were running and screaming and fighting Zombies, it was chaotic in the way only large scale battles could be. At least in most of the ones he'd been in there had been some semblance of coordination or battle plans, this was simply mayhem.

"Get away from me!" he screamed as his arms lashed out at the horde, attacking with the one weapon he had left. His clawtips left thin lines across the peeling flesh of his attackers and decayed skin under his fingernails.
Scourge couldn't see the hardware store from here. The hardware store might not even be there anymore. But he kept pace behind Statesman to the point of almost catching up to him, running with the hope that somewhere soon there would be safety and a place to rest.
