We found it. Cletus McCoy’s trailer, complete with backyard shed. Funny thing is the shed was bigger than the trailer. And this was no meth lab. This was mad scientist Frankenstein lab stuff. Not to mention the secret basement.
The property itself was tucked away in the woods, nice and private. Judging by the sandbag walls and the equipment that had been abandoned, we could tell that the army (or maybe the secret CDC group) had been there, set up a perimeter, and then had been overrun by zombies.
Let’s just say that the news story about Cletus McCoy being some redneck who really REALLY liked Christmas was bullshit. Cletus’s method of demise may have been true, though. There were bear traps littered about and the transformer on the side of the shed had been blown.
Most of the stuff that had been in the shed/lab was gone. I assume it had been confiscated by the government. Seems that whoever took the stuff did not find the secret basement.
The weird thing is that Harold did find the basement. In fact it only took him five minutes. Like he knew it was there. Harold went around the exterior perimeter of the shed, digging in various spots until he uncovered the hatch and went right in.
I think Harold has some explaining to do.
…
Not sure what all Harold took from the basement. Looked like a lot of tubes, petri dishes and random equipment. A ruck sack of paperwork and computer hard drives too. I guess no one told him the power is out.
Fine by me. All I care about is that we are finally back on our way to Tallahassee. Maybe it is stupid or maybe it is twisted, but I really want Matthew to be able to visit his mom’s grave by Christmas. I hope it will give him some closure.
