xiphiasSo: you are in the mall when the zombies attack.
You get:
What do you choose?
Weapon: Clearly, I need something that will be very effective at wiping out zombies, which requires only minimal skill from me, and which will NOT harm bystanders and things that AREN'T zombies.
I choose . . . SWARMS AND SWARMS OF GENETICALLY- MODIFIED SUPER-BLOWFLY-MAGGOTS!!!! And maybe other decay-eating organisms, too!
See, this weapon will release vast clouds of blowfly maggots that have been engineered to be even more rapacious than normal blowfly maggots. They will eat all dead flesh nearby, while leaving everything else absolutely untouched. While they may be gross, they'll be no more gross than zombies, and they will swarm through the mall and then through the city, engulfing and eating every zombie, reducing them to piles of disconnected bones with no ability to move, while not harming any living thing.
That should pretty much deal with 'em good.
For the song, I dunno. I can't think of a song that would match well with it. Maybe something from the music to Pier Gynt by Edvard Grieg -- "Anitra's Dance", maybe. That'd be good.
For the famous person fighting beside me. . . maybe Superman. If a zombie gets through the swarms of decay-eating critters, he should be able to take care of it. Or maybe Sun Wukong, the Monkey King. Yeah -- Monkey would be able to take on an arbitrarily large number of zombies. Actually, the only problem with having Sun Wukong as your partner would be that he might get bored if the blowfly maggots are working too well.
You get:
- One weapon
- One song blasting from the speakers
- One famous person to fight beside you
