Welcome to Gaia! ::

The Mall was boarded up soon after the zombies struck so that, and the fact that most people were more concerned with survival than the latest fashions, few people or zombies saw much reason to come here. Although most of the stores are in pretty good condition, the first floor food court is filled with the smell of stale food and zombies occasionally wander by the windows, so most people tend to stay in the upper levels.

While there is practically no way to get in through the usual entrances, there are rumors that whispers can be heard from the inside. Most think these whispers are of young teens who meet a horrible fate but some believe that there's secret entrance that most people don't know of.

At a certain point, Deadra stopped to inspect her surroundings. Rows upon rows of abandoned stores but, unless she was looking for a new wardrobe, there were few supplies that she actually needed here. "Well this was a bust." She said aloud, the word bust... ust.... ust... echoed down the empty hallway. In the distance, the sound of her voice awoke what used to be a shop clerk. It appeared that he had fled to the mall for safety, but not before he'd already been bitten and infected. The undead man rose from behind a stack of boxes, and began shuffling slowly towards the source of Deadra's voice.

Deadra, meanwhile, had moved on from that position and had wandered down the hallway towards the food court. She didn't expect the food to be fresh but... chances are, it was never fresh to begin with. She stepped through the maze of tables and chairs until she reached a hotdog vendor. She looked inside for something, anything. A knife would have been helpful, but instead she got a handful of ketchup packets. She shoved them into her pockets when a noise from behind made her turn around suddenly. The zombified store clerk had located her and had shuffled right into a stack of chairs, alerting Deadra to his presence. "s**t." She brought out her baseball bat and stepped closer to the creature. She took a hard swing and the rotten flesh separated the head from the shoulders. "I hope you didn't bring any friends with you..." She whispered, as the body hit a table then fell to the floor.
