" You said that if a killer zombie can’t find his murderer and have his revenge, he can start killing and eating anything that gets in his way, right?’
‘Yeah.’
‘Then shouldn’t giving the vampires over to the zombies quiet some of them?’
‘It might, but we’d be giving two legal citizens over to be torn limb from limb. Vampires are a lot harder to kill than humans usually, which means the vamps would stay alive a lot longer during the process.’
He nodded. ‘Makes sense.’
‘That would be a really bad way to die, Nicky.’
‘Yeah.’ He said it as if to say, So what?
‘If we were just going to execute the vamps anyway, and it would save dozens of lives …’ Yancey let his words trail off.
Badger looked at him. ‘You could do that, give someone over to the thing we saw today?’
He shrugged. ‘It’s a thought; we’re just brainstorming and gathering information, right?’
‘They’re rotting vampires,’ Nicky said. ‘If you can’t teach them how to look human, the woman seemed to want to die.’
‘They should have two forms; one should be totally human and as attractive as they were in life,’ I said.
Dev and Lisandro came over to us. ‘What has you guys all serious face?’ Dev asked, smiling.
‘We’re debating on whether giving the two vampires in custody over to the zombies of their murder victims would make the zombies stop killing other people,’ I said.
Dev’s eyes widened and he went pale.
‘Who came up with the idea?’ Lisandro asked.
‘I did,’ Nicky said.
‘You are a sick motherfucker,’ Lisandro said.
‘Yes, yes, I am,’ Nicky said, totally unbothered by the comment.
Lisandro laughed, as if he couldn’t quite believe it, but he did. "
