A zombie is dispatched by a shot through its right eye. Its mouth goes slack. A zombie is shot in the forehead knocking it backwards. Its tongue limply falls over their teeth as the head rocks back at an unnatural angle from the impact. Ran crouches down behind the counter as a zombie reacts to the environment trying to find its prey. Ran has both hands on her gun as she steadies herself. Her inner monologue plays through her mind. Then necromancer's finger points to Ran's position while it glows a blue glow that has been seen in the eyes of the zombies. The patrolling zombie lurches its head around in the direction of the necromancer's finger. It is acting against what Ran has described previously on how zombies should behave. The necromancer stands in a hooded robe, smiling. His eyes are covered by the hood. The blue glow lights his face from below.
