Opeeennn uuuup!

Huuurryyy!

Z-Z-Zombies! They're real zombies!

Huh?! Wh-What exactly is going on?!

Th-That's what I wanna know!

We didn't talk about this during the meeting. Rina-chan board says, “Question mark?”

Leeet usss innn!

Eeek! They want in!

Don't be ridiculous! There's NO WAY we're letting them in!

Whyyy is this haaappeniiing?

Ahhhhh!

H-Hold on. Umm… Those zombies are…just part of the prank, aren't they?! Please say they are!

They're not! Or I wouldn't be freaking out like this! First of all, if this were a set-up, who do you suppose those zombies are then?!

That's a good point. All of us are here right now. So that means…

Like. I. Said! They're real zombies!

Nico's behavior doesn't seem like an act at all. If it was, she'd be an award-winning actress.

However, beings as unrealistic as zombies shouldn't even exis—

Ooopeeennn uuup! Ooopeeennn uuup!

Th-Then what're those?

W-Well…

Eli-chi, this is getting interesting—

I can't hear anything… I can't see anything…

Oh, she's escaping from reality.

So this means the ghost story about this island from earlier really happened! And the girls from that story are wandering around here as zombies!

WHAT?!

The island ghost story?! You're saying it's real?!

What else could those zombies be?!

I told you, I have no idea!

It doesn't matter whether or not that ghost story is true right now! The reality is that those zombies are after us!

But it looks like they can't get in here.

We have to make sure they can't!

Nico-chi, those zombies really have nothing to do with your ruse?

Absolutely nothing! Why is this happening?!

It doesn't matter why, but we can't stay like this. What should we do?

I'm just as lost as you are.

Whaaat arrre youuu doooing?

First, let's make sure we are safe. It would be quite the problem if they managed to make their way inside.

The locks! Did we lock everything?

I'm going to check the front door!

Then I'll make sure we didn't leave any windows open. Rinari, come with me.

Okay.

We might want to build a barricade on the off chance that the locks aren't enough.

Good idea. Let's take some tables and any other large, heavy objects to block off the entryway.

Oh yeah! We should call someone for help.

Our smartphones don't have service here!

The landline should still work.

Nico, can you get the phone working?

Impossible! After I spoke to the owners about the prank, they disconnected the phones for fun.

Oh no. The owners were kind enough to play along, but now it's coming back to bite us.

So does that mean we can't get in touch with anyone until the boat comes back to get us in two days?

Actually, I was told there was a radio for emergencies around.

Then let's use that to call for help!

It's out in the shed. You think we can really go out there with the zombies wandering around?

*Whimper*
