20 days since the first infection in Serbia have passed… And things weren''t looking so good on Sirogojno, a village situated in Serbia, known by locals to have a great museum and a priest who helped ever Christmas Eve the small kids who were in local Orphanages either from its village or from another town.


    At this day, the priest, Sava, was on his church, his ordinary orthodox church from the village where he was doing its everyday work. He was talking with an old lady, hearing her things who were on her soul. Saying it to her everything will be forgiven in the God''s eyes and she will be forgiven. The old lady confessed to the priest that she has beat her husband to death, after he bite her arm and tried to tear its flesh apart. The old woman also told the priest it took more than a push from the ledge of the house, because even if the husband had fall on its head, he was still moving, growling and attacked her like nothing had happened.


    "And what happened after that?" asked the Priest to the old lady.


    "I pushed him again from the ledge. B-But this time… He raised up and run after Gretchen." says the old lay distraught.


    "Oh no… And? He was arrested?"


    "W-Worse… He was killed."


    "Killed?"


    "By a cop. H-he shoot him in the head. And told us to be safe from these kinds of monsters. He… He left after that."


    "Dear God…"


    Then, the old lady, as she was wiping her tears, she started to cough in a loud tone. She coughed so hard the woman threw blood from her mouth. She then, fell from the confession onto the floor, and starts having a seizure. Sava, the Priest, quickly left its spot, and came to help the old lady, but when he approached her, the old lady eyes started to turn white, and pigments of green appeared on her skin.


    "Are you sick, Olga?"


    "I-I-I am, Sava… Please… Call the… Call the doctors." says the old lady.


    Sava quickly took its phone, and calls the emergency number. But it was pointless, because they weren''t responding to the call. Sava tried to call them several times, but every time, the same thing happened, they did not pick it up. nobody picked it up.


    He tried to save the old lady, but after a few minutes f trying to keep her alive on words, the woman draws her last breath. Sava, remained on that point, crouched near the body of the old lady who confessed earlier her husband weird behaviour. When the old lady drew her final breath, Sava raised on its feet, he prays to her, hoping she would reach the Kingdom of Heaven.


    When he was about to finish his prey, he hears a growling sound coming from the old lady, he looked at her, flabbergasted by the fact the old lady was once out of breath, now she has risen up from slumber. He looked shocked by this, but his shocked has transformed to fear when the old lady skin pigments become more in number, and greener, and she lunges to the Priest. Sava has tried to hold the lady back, but it did not work, she managed to get a bite on the neck of Sava, which made him scream and elect violence. He pushed the lady from him, and he runs to its praying room, there, he managed to lock the door with a sturdy furniture, all the three doors and remain isolated in there.

    The man looked on the bite mark with a small window glass handle who was in this room, let probably by him to arrange his long brown bear it has grown since he was in high school, second year of Theology. Sava remains in that room, looking at the window, where he sees the old lady running from the church after three teenagers who were cycling near the church. Thankfully, the three teenagers did outrun the old lady. But Sava did not see enough because the boys and the monster have left its field of vision from the window.


    Sava as he was about to leave, he trips over, and falls on the floor, hitting its head on a table and falling unconscious. The body of the priest remains laying on their room for about five hours, and when he wakes up, he wouldn''t wake up as a normal zombie from movies or TV shows, he would wake up as an Undead.


    On the next day, Sava zombie was still in this room, locked from outside, standing still, looking at a picture of Jesus Christ on a cross, saying some miserable words as he continues to look at the portrait. The zombie remained in that position, looking at the saints, while outside, the outbreak has started its process and has claimed the life of quarter of this village population. There weren''t any people on this day who weren''t trying to enter the church, because all of them were preoccupied to outrun the deads, or to fight them off, but there were little numbers who were fighting the deads, while most of them were focusing on outrunning them.


    On the next day, the body of the priest, is seen in the same room, standing like yesterday, staring at same portrait of Jesus Christ in a cross, and muttering some intelligible words to himself. He continues to stand in the same position for the entire day, until at night, he finally let out a word. A word who could be heard and understood by humans.


    "God."


    On the same night, the creature, who was still undead, looked on the portrait, he blinked every three minutes, which is a new thing because it never did this type of thing before. It was staring at the portrait, for three days straight. Ignoring the destruction outside, buildings on fire and people running around because of the zombies who have taken control of the village.


    On the fourth day, the zombie stands still looking at the portrait of Jesus Christ, this time, the thing was looking at it, and mutters some kind of prayer to himself. But he says the prayer with doing anything religious related, he just stands on its legs, looking at he portray, white eyes wide open and slowly moving to the left and to the right. He does this for about three more hours, until a door inside of the church gets opened.


    When the door got opened, three people are swarming inside of the church, as they are chased by five zombies, including the woman who infected and transformed Sava four days ago. The three people, when they''ve entered the place, unarmed, they were looking desperate anywhere to save themselves from these monsters. They tried to hold them back by suing some chairs they''ve found in church, threw some candles holders at them, and one even tried a portrait to a zombie, but it destroyed the portrait upon the impact of zombie''s head. While chaos was emerging in the church, on the room where Sava is locked, the Undead zombie stopped from muttering, turned around, and walks to the locked door, then, when he reached there, he scratches the furniture object he sued to lock himself in. But as you can guess, this did not help Sava escape from the locked room.


    The three people have fought the five zombies, but the odds were against them. All three males, were eaten alive by the zombies, who were pinning them down, one by one, and eat their insides out. The zombies were not even killed on this confrontation. and even if they could, this church did not offer any strong material to help the three survivors knock these things from moving.


    When the noise stopped, Sava turned around, walk to the portrait of Jesus Christ, and continues to mutter to himself a praying as he is looking at the portrait. He continues to do these things for two more days, when everything will change for the remaining population of the village and for the Undead Sava, who will jump on the next phase of Undead creatures. A phase that not many Undeads have managed to achieve it.
