Chapter 33-3 Red Winter

[Witch_Doctor]

For all of you who say Denver could not go down in 2hrs, remember the world went down in 2 days and this is a nastier zombie who infects other much faster.

For fun I set up a spread sheet that tracks how fast Denver could go down. I assumed one Inkling could kill 2 people and infect 2 people in populated area in 5 minutes. Result: every one gone in under 1.5 hours. Happy to run other numbers for you, but here is the result of the 2 + 2 in 5min assumption.

I haven't run the simulation yet, but here's Boulder.

EDIT: OK, I just ran it. Funny as all get up. You should have this conga-line of zombies chasing some poor schmuck around a park.

After listening to episode 46 of We're Not Dead, when they mentioned the new forum member pointing out that both Ink and the Inklings have normal eye color instead of the glassy eyes of the other zombies, I thought of something.

Could Ink be an Inkling? Specifically, are they same type of being?

Both the Inkler and the Inklings have normal colored eyes, stand about 2.15 meters tall, seemingly bullet-proof skin, speed, strength and agility.

We are given a glimpse of Ink's super human feats in Chapter 11 part one in the tower where he survives two shots from Burt's rifle (assumed by Saul to be due to body armor), Jumps from the 2th floor of the tower and runs like Steve Austin while Burt Lee Harvey Oswald's him in the hand.

Are his teeth Inklish too? Michael mentions his few remaining broken teeth as he grinned and stood over 6 and a half feet tall.

What about the pale skin? Well, we can't tell because he's covered in all of those tattoos.

If I wasn't being told by the forum button to 'spread around the reputation'....you would be getting some.

Oh dammit...but then...Why the numbers/tattoos/nails on the floor in the hospital?

Little One => ADLO or Inkling?
ADLO sounds log dog-food; Inkling may imply a direct link between Ink and the Little Ones too heavily, although the theories and thoughts about it so far are very solid and none I would dismiss as too far-fetched or not valid ...

How about this one: GULO ... Grown Up Little Ones ... ? Or is it too close to Gollum???
f*ck ... Why do I even consider things of WND worth to be translated into dead-horse postings ...

GOLU sounds as apropo as any other.

Sounds like a Super Saiyan Zombie

One thing about this episode is that it got me thinking all the way back to chapter 10 (Purgatory), where Datu was trapped with Samantha and Kalani at the arena.

In this episode we hear a lot about these ADLO's/Inklings and that they resemble Ink far more then normal zombies, and are clearly far more advanced then the normal ones running around. Its got me thinking that these new zombies are potentially a product of whatever ink was doing to captured survivors. Its suggested in chapter 10 by Sam that people were taken down there, "played around" with and then eaten, but neither she or Datu ever actually watched it happen.

What if zombies infected by Ink personally become these "Inklings" and only the uninfected can in turn, become new "inklings". That could explain why there isn't already a surplus of them running around LA. What with most of the cities inhabitants already having been infected by the "normals".

Basically what I'm saying is what if the special zombies aren't some kind of evolution of the species but originate from a single source that has so far been unable to hit larger numbers like the normals were. That could explain why there's only been around 6 Behemoths/Big ones seen, and why the "Jumpers" have basically died out. Because either their source infected either died off or has yet to be able to hit larger numbers of people.

Thoughts?

Reasonable.
