It was easy for Ranma and Kodachi to know which direction Nanami was in, and they swiftly dropped their morbid acquisitions to head for her. Not only was she their way out of this hell hole, but she was one of them now, and instinct demanded they protect each other.
As they neared her, and each other, they began to smell what the threat was. They smelled them long before they saw one. For a moment, the sight of a dead body lumbering towards them made them hesitate. Fragments of ghost tales and brushes with the supernatural made them shiver as the bio-chemical zombies stalked toward them, moaning dumbly.
There were not many, however, they remembered what Nanami's instructions had been. Also, the other two of their species were through these creatures, and they had to get past.
Once it was determined they had to go through, none of the hybrids had much trouble with the shambling undead, and they were soon re-united.
"This is what you were mentioning before," Kodachi noted grimmly as they met Nanami again, soon after a zombie had lost its head to her tail.
"Did you make this stuff?" Ranma asked Nanami sharply.
"They created it around four hundred years ago," Nanami said. "When I was hired on to this place, they implied they were working on a cure for it. We actually made a few." She took a sample out of her pocket and smiled. "And when this gets to the public, that's all she wrote for the T-Virus, hopefully."
"Let us just leave here, now," Kodachi insisted. "These are not the only creatures we shall have to face if we remain long."
"It's this way," Nanami said, getting them to follow her.
