"Michael!"

Jenny dives toward Michael and knocks a ghoul away from him with her rock. "Get Tom!"

Michael turns to look at Crazy Tom as the man strides toward them. Michael lashes out with the weed puller and jabs a hole in the man's neck. It doesn't even bleed. Crazy Tom growls and lunges with his knife, and Michael defends with his weed puller as he backs up, retreating from him.

Jenny has to look away from the fight as another body approaches her with bad breath and reaching hands. She hops out of reach and fights two women off, trying to get a chance to kill one without getting killed by the other. Finally, she smashes one's head in, then the other's. She looks back over her shoulder for Michael and Crazy Tom, but they're out of sight. She runs toward the nearest escape route: the alley beside Henry's house.

She doesn't see anyone inhabiting the dirt lane. She turns in a circle, searching for them and listening, but they're gone and she doesn't know where to look. More people are coming from the left, so she runs down the street to the right and turns the corner.

She hears an engine; a car is coming. She runs out to flag it down, but the pale, frightened face she sees through the glass a split second before the car swerves and hits her is not in the frame of mind to pick anyone up.

Jenny is knocked out instantly as her head hits the pavement, saving her from having to suffer through being eaten by the nearby ghouls that immediately congregate to feast on her.

She rises several minutes later as one of them.
