“But if we
train a zombie, we’ll not only win the science fair, we’ll be doing the town a
huge favor.”
“How? By
getting ourselves put in jail or worse like—you know—infected? No! Thank! You! There
are rules about zombies for a reason. They are extremely infectious. You should
have read the pamphlet they gave us in science about zombies,” Chad reminded
Max. “If you had, you’d know that.”
“We won’t
get infected. It’s gotta bite you in order to do that and we won’t get anywhere
near the teeth,” Max paused. “We’ll keep the zombie in a cage in either the
backyard or the basement. And as long as we stay outside the cage, we won’t get
infected. Then once we’ve got it trained, we won’t have to worry about it
biting us.”
