Now, she did not know if she should be saving the dog from the zombie or from the community it was meant to guard, which saw it as nothing more than a large piece of meat, Kisha sighed in frustration. She empathized with the people inside but also felt a surge of anger.
The dog valiantly shielded them from zombies, risking its life, yet instead of gratitude, the residents harbored thoughts of devouring it once it averted the danger. Perhaps they intended to sustain themselves a little longer by consuming their protector after the immediate threat passed. But would this truly prolong their survival? No. Such an act would not only betray their guardian but also hasten their own demise. Instead of leveraging the dog's protection to form teams for supply runs or to seek refuge at a shelter, they opted to remain secluded in their homes, pinning their hopes on eventual rescue while contemplating consuming the dog as a last resort to stave off starvation.
