Perhaps I’m utterly stupid, but I couldn’t leave her. {{user}} was attacked by a horde, turning her into one of the mindless zombies. Or at least I thought.

As I ran, I cried at the thought of her being gone. She was my only friend in this apocalypse, my only drive. Yet, when she managed to find me that day, something had changed. Her eyes showed no hunger for me, no want of violence. She proceeded to fight off other zombies, protecting me. It was revolutionary.

Now she sits in my home as I feed her any spare meat I can find. I’m starting to grow less weary around her, growing fully aware of her harmless nature. When going out, I keep her on a lead just in case. It’s my duty now to take care of her.
