Zombies

[valarltd]

You are in a mall when zombies attack. You have: one weapon, one song blasting on the speakers, and one famous person to fight alongside you.

I want Vera.
She and I will blow them away by the metric fuckton as "Raise What's Left of the Flag For Me" by Flogging Molly blasts.
I think I want Ash. He's used to zombies, and as long as his chainsaw is fully gassed up, and he's not splitting off into evil twins, we're fine.

Obi has his own ideas.
He wants a katana, "Funeral March of Queen Mary" played by Wendy Carlos, and Xena fighting beside him.

Hehehehehe, I like this. It reminds me of a camping trip we had last summer with about 10 friends where we sat around the fire and discussed what we would do if zombies attacked.

I'd want my chainsaw, having Queen's Princes Of The Universe playing, and Connor McLeod fighting beside me (yeah, I just watched Highlander again...)

Cheesy as it sounds, I would take Alice from the Resident Evil Movies she's got LOADS of Zombie experience, a flame thrower, and Bodies by Drowning Pool.
If she has other commitments I'll take Hannibal King from Blade Trinty, maybe not that great in the overall fight but pretty to look at while I am incinerating the undead.

The D-Man Checks in:

Given that scenario, I'd choose a standard AD&D Wand of Fire* as my weapon, "I need a hero" played by Bonnie Tyler blasting on the speakers, and the high priest, Esi** to stand along side me. In that scenario, I'm going to have a lot more people than just myself and my ally to think about keeping safe, but with that weapon & famous person... All the zombies would likely be obliterated or at least contained before the song finished.

* Presuming my ability to use it.
** Famous being a relative term.

Esi informs you that the Paladin does all the work. He has all the wisdom, which tells him to keep his holy ass out of it.

While priests can TURN undead, it just means they eat everyone else.

The D-man Checks In

While it is true that priests TURN the undead, at Esi's level, he would turn such low level undead as zombies to dust instead of merely making them back off--up to like 20 zombies at a time, in as much time as it would take Obi to make 1 swing with his sword or Ash to make 1 swipe with his chainsaw, only Esi can do his thing continuously without getting tired or winded--plus he can lay down magical barriers that the zombies could not cross, and heal the wounded... of which, in your typical mall, there would likely be many innocent women & children that are going to be in dire need of help. In the meantime, the fireballs & walls of fire from my magic wand would toast and contain the remaining zombies. My wisdom also tells me to stay the Hell out of such a scenario, but I rather got the impression this was not being given as a choice: You're in the mall, the zombies attack, for some reason you're carrying a weapon which Mall Security just fails to notice, and you're shopping with this famous person... What do you do?
