Tuesday: Survive the Zombie Apocalypse

When the students entered the Dangershop today, they’d find themselves inside a deserted Wal*Mart store.



“Today we’re going to talk about equipment. Specifically we’re going to talk about-”

Yes. Columbus hit a button on the remote. And yes more block letters appeared behind him.



“-Traveling light. There’s a trick to this: You need to carry not necessarily what you want but what you need. That not only goes for physical items but emotional ones as well. As much as you might love your friends and family... Well if they’re gone, carrying around a photo album isn’t going to do you much good as much as a good pair of running shoes, several boxes of shot gun cartridges or a first aid kit. And that brings me to another rule.”

Yes. That would be Columbus playing with his remote again.



Yes. Columbus loves his block letters.

“Ziploc bags. Yes, they are bad for the environment. Then again? Zombies don’t recycle. However they are good for one important factor: keeping moisture out. If you’re in a dark place and your flashlight goes out, the last thing you want to find is that your replacement batteries are corroded. Or if you need to reload, you don’t want to find that your supply of ammunition has been soaked with zombie... um. Juices.”

Ew.

Columbus then waved his arm around the room. “Today, your classroom assignment is to gather all the items you would need to survive in a zombie apocalypse. While dodging zombies of course. Pick your weapon from the ones available in the store and let’s see how everything works.”

And with that, Columbus hit the remote revealing zombies wearing Wal*Mart smocks who snarled and then started to run towards the students.

“Good luck!”

Bod had been in a Wal-Mart once before and he still found it massive and unwieldy. He started limbering up though because he figured finding things would be the hardest part for him.

Bod's first order of business was to grab a weapon. That was easily solved in sporting goods where he grabbed a bat. From there, he found a waterproof duffel bag to carry things in next.

A first aid kit, a small hand crank radio (that was a hopeful thing), a blanket, flares, and a notebook got dropped into the bag before he ran into his first zombie.

Bod swung hard at his knees to slow him down so he could run away before that zombie started dragging himself back towards Bod.

Tara went for basics: Energy bars, water, rope, a flashlight, bandannas. She had to use TK to toss a couple things at the zombies, but she managed to distract them enough to fill her basket.

Seifer was a bit glad he had rejunctioned this morning, because he was casually tossing fire spells at the zombies while he shopped. Guns, ammo, easy food stuffs in cans or wrappers, leather gloves and a jacket. Oh, and knives. Big, nasty hunting knives.

Hank... had a shopping cart full of boxes of Ziploc bags.

It turned out, they didn't work very well as weapons against zombies.
