Based on my theory that 10K could begin making his own antibodies.
—–
10K is wide awake one night and he softly smiles to himself as he looks at the coordinates of where they are. He glances up to Warren shyly and his hand comes up to the base of his neck. He suddenly shudders, like he’s going to faint, and goes white.
Addy is by his side in seconds, with Dr. Sun following immediately after. She takes his pulse quickly and finds it slightly elevated.
“10K, you okay?”
He looked up at Warren and Addy and Dr. sun, his eyes wide.
“Can I try something?”
-.-.-.-
And that’s why they were letting 10K walk up to a Z, his hand outstretched. Not unlike Murphy used to, in fact.
The Z keeps on walking for a moment, and then it stops. The woman cocks her head and stares in to 10K’s eyes. Then her hand flies up and she gives the boy a high-five.
10K turns back to them, glee visible in his eyes.
-.-.-.-
Dr. Sun orders him not to take a dose of the serum and then tests his blood. There are more antibodies and little flecks of deactivated and mutated Zombie virus there.
10K’s blood could save humanity. They wouldn’t need Murphy.
She turns to Addy, wide-eyed and excited beyond belief.
“Hes making his own antibodies. Similar to Murphy’s but, no blue skin. A better antibody serum. This is safe for humans.”
(The human race is mostly saved by the next Christmas. 10K enjoys a nice couple months with his group; Doc being a father to him. Addy being a big sister and letting him use the Z Whacker. They find out Hector is actually related to 10K by his uncle Salvador (making Hector his uncle as well). Warren teaches him how to actually drive well. And Dr. Sun? Well, 10K was her star in her eyes. She taught him to speak Chinese.)
