There they heard it again. The load groaning and moaning Nicolai and Alfonse have been
hearing every night outside of their Mexico farmhouse. “People” said Nicolai.
“Walking around in our lawn” said Alfonse worried. “ CALL THE COPS!” screamed Nicolai in his Russian voice. “We don’t need to, just go to sleep!” Alfonse shot back, and within 5 minutes, they were asleep. It had been going on for almost 2 months, and almost every morning they woke up to find a dead pig which looked to be eaten. Those mornings they also found footprints , which were fairly big. They finally called Dr. Richtofen the next morning and he studied the footprints and said with a fear that they have a zombie problem, and sure enough, the next morning they seen a dead zombie in the middle of the pig field. Dr Richtofen studied it and said it died of swine flu. Dr. Richtofen also mentioned that the only way to get rid of the zombies is to fight them off. That night they heard the zombies again and had their loaded guns and grenades ready to fight. They went and killed about 50 zombies. They had no ammo left and thought it was all over. “YAY!” they both screamed, and were almost going to go celebrate when about 40 more zombies came out of nowhere.
