On Our Side

I slowly walked down the steps and towards the metal gates that were like the gates of heaven in front of me. If, of course, there was a whole horde of zombies waiting for you on the other side of heaven.

Then again, for all I knew, there might be.

I straightened my back and shed the aspects of humanity that I seemed so desperate to cling to no matter how much I told myself otherwise. Taking my hair out of the bun it was normally in, I let it fall down my back in a black waterfall until it reached my ass. My hair was growing faster and faster, but I didn't care.

I put my right hand to the gates, swinging them back into the crowd of zombies, and stepped forward, unconcerned about the possible consequences. I would take all their souls before they had a chance to harm me as they did in my last life.
