Against The Dark Page #3

except, oh, they crave blood.

And until they get it,

they're insane killing machines.

I pulled some of the first victims

back here.

- Back when the attacks just started.

- No sh*t.

You know, some of the wounded

were immune...

...and others,

man, they just changed.

Just changed right over.

And everybody thinks

that they're vampires.

But they're not. They're mutants.

Maybe so.

But what's the myth based on?

Being a slave to blood and flesh.

Everything you do,

everything you think about...

...is just getting more blood.

No mind of your own.

No feelings.

Sh*t, man.

Guess they just wanna feed.

- Move the trolley.

- All right.

Not vampires, huh?

B*tch sure looks the part.

Then make sure it never gets out.

Come on, let's go.

Come on.

- What kept you guys?

- Great news.

There's definitely a few

of our little friends on this side.

And they know we're here.

Come on, let's go.

All right, we've gotta get going, now.

So, what? You saw one?

- You might say that.

- What was he like?

Are they getting weak?

- What?

- Great.

The dope's kicked in, he's wasted.

There's a cafeteria up ahead.

Maybe we can find some food

before heading down to the next level.

Everybody's starving.

We have to keep our strength up.

What if there's one

of those things there?

Then we'll kill him.

What if there's more than one?

Then we'll kill them all.

Come on. Let's go.

How old do you think this food is?

Could be months old.

The thing we always do

is look for food.

Trouble is, most of it is junk.

Just shovel it in.

- Be thankful it's here.

- Yeah.

Because no one else

was able to eat it.

It's too bad we can't just stay here.

We got three hours till dawn.

It might take that long

just to get down to the next level.

The hardest thing is finding stairwells

that aren't blocked or welded up.

We were all safe where we met up.

There was no food left

and we were losing power.

And we would have died, too,

if we stayed where we were.

The one thing

that we have to remember...

...is that we can control

our own behaviour.

Anything else,

deal with it as it happens.

- Morgan.

- No, Dorothy.

I'm telling you the truth.

I'm telling you all truth.

We could take a chance.

We can break a window or something

to the outside.

- Well, at least we'll see them coming.

- Yeah.

Okay, let me ask you.

What do you think?

Two hours ago, you didn't even

wanna leave the old side. I mean...

Just have to get to the security doors.

It's as simple as that.

Why don't we ask him?

What's your take, Ricky?

Whatever.

Are you bleeding?

Well, it's just a little cut.

I must've fallen on something

when I got knocked out.

It's just a little scratch.
