This is my theory on why the "
Little Ones" are little and different from the rest of the infected. I thought of this from the chapter where
Lizzy is with
the Mallers when they are ambushed in a tramp set by the zombies. After
Tardust gets in the truck a Little One reaches in to grab him and get in.
Bricks tears the arm off the Little One and drives with the rest of the convoy escaping the ambush zone. After reaching a safe distance the mallers group up outside the vehicles and Bricks is still carrying the Little One's severed arm. When everybody looks at it Tardust says it doesnt even look like it was ever human.
My theory is that the Little Ones are infected babies. I think that they could even be babies that were still in the womb unborn perhaps. I think that the virus would be in a more pure form in babies since they are still developing and therefore lead to the difference in their appearance compared to the common infected.
I thought of this after watching the second Alien vs Predator movie (which sucked!!!!!!!!!!!!) after watching the seen where the hybrid alien walks through the maternity ward and you see the babies in that room with the little cribs. Figure
the hospital plays a big part in this obviously, especially after
Riley and
Kalani see him there while trying to make their way to the generators.
