Outside, Adrian walked with five soldiers and the three girls. They were all covered in thermal blankets as the night was chilly. Around them were the corpses of the zombies.
It was a disturbing sight from the girls but they felt a sense of security by being around Adrian and his men.
"How many were killed in this?" Chandrika courageously asked.
"About 40 of them were killed, five were injured," Adrian replied.
"How did this happen?" Glaiza added.
"We don't know, we are going to figure it out. We believe she has been infected ever since she was in Boracay. Our medical team inspected the body and found out that she has a bite in her legs. She hid it. But what's more troubling is that she took a long time to turn while those she bit turned instantly."
"That means the infection isn't consistent," he continued. "Some turn fast. Some don't. We're still trying to understand why."
Chandrika nodded slowly, taking that in.
