Add probably won’t get nightmares if he watches Jakob go at it anyway, right? Because Jakob highly suspects that very little fazes Add—except something like this. These zombies are, in the end, weaklings compared to the creatures he’d faced off in his previous life. But he doesn’t know that, and knowing that their former comrades are trapped in those bodies is horrific enough.

He wishes he’d wake from this nightmare himself.

“Then watch from a safer distance!” Although the only place of safety he does know of is the shrine, and that’s a ways from here. It’s not that he doesn’t want Add to watch, in the end, but he doesn’t want Add to die while Jakob uses the last of his weapons to finish off Roxas and Ludger. If only he’d understand that…

He ducks at the swipe of a nearby zombie and thrusts the point of his dagger into the creature’s foot, stopping it in its tracks before it can get anywhere near Add. To free his previous master, or to save his current one…he only has three daggers left, and even less time to decide before he feels a slimy, rotting hand grasp at his hair and yank his head upward with force enough to make him drop his weapon with a yelp. Two daggers left, and he has to quickly draw one before this thing tries to get past him and at his master.
