In my opinion, nothing can beat the Terminator franchise's Jon Conner when it comes to leading humans against their war with the AIs.

What do you mean a zombie's opinion don't matter!?

You shouldn't discredit my feelings and views just because my teeth have all but fallen out, my skin is flaky at best on good days, my limb movements are a little uncoordinated, and I sprint with a limp.

Anyway, none of those things matter. What does, is that my second in command, Dead-but-can-pass-off-for-a-human or JustDead, as I like to call him, has just shared some good news: the third world war was almost upon us!

For all their so-called intelligence, humans are dumb as fuck. Brains are wasted on them. At least, eating them has paid off for us. Over the years, we have gotten better at rational thinking and planning for the future. My army of zombies is ready to leave the drainage pipes (our kinda-permanent hideout) and show our might to the humans, who have a one-track mind: spot zombies, kill zombies.

Frankly, I am dead tired of their supercilious attitude. Yes, I am aware that we are not that appealing to look at. Fine, I admit that puke-inducing force is strong with our race, but in my defense, we still look like runway models compared to our six-feet-under counterparts.

Moreover, it was the humans who came at us first. I mean, is it our fault that the first of us were clueless and unorganized? Should we be hunted, killed, and defamed just because the ones who came before just wanted to survive? Was it their fault that they could only digest human brains!?

I am aware that we have caused a million or two...hundred deaths, but that's all in the past. On regaining our mental bearings, hadn't we graciously offered the humans an olive branch? Our proposal was mutually beneficial. They were to supply us brains, and we would leave them alone. We were not picky; any kind of human brain would do as long as it was fresh.

Alas. The humans, we-don't-negotiate-with-zombies, had rejected it outright. As a previous member of this race, I can attest to it that humans are unreasonably stubborn.

I don't know what prompted one of the so-called developed nations to opt for nukes (show-offs, the entire lot of them) to get rid of us, but I am sure things had not gone according to plan, leading up to the now imminent third world war.

I was in the vicinity when the explosion had happened. It had killed thousands of us- RIP my soulless brethren. However, those of us who had survived had evolved. I was one of them.

I have always been proactive, a quality that I retained when I embraced the zombie life, and now when the opportunity in the form of the war has presented itself, I am not going to let it pass.

Everything is going according to plan.

Even after realizing that we are no more an unorganized lot, only concerned about our right-now needs, human beings continue to overestimate themselves and underestimate us.

Unlike humans, we are not greedy. All we need is a constant supply of brains. We have, as of now, done away with wastage. We have taken over large cold storage units and started stocking them with brains. Facilities have been set up to contain and breed humans.

Having anticipated that at the rate at which humans are being turned into zombies, we would soon run out of food (our bite was our curse, and there were too many of us already), we came up with an ingenious method to curtail our growing numbers. We trained our fiercest soldiers to use their limbs rather than their teeth. And those who found it hard to comply submitted to the alternative: mouth restraints, willingly.

Now there are enough of us to overthrow the human race. With us in charge, we will achieve what the humans hadn't: world peace. So what if it turned humans from being the ultimate predators to merely a source of sustenance...our sustenance.

It's only a matter of time before we overthrow the human race and rule the world. I, Jon Conner, an enlightened zombie, am the leader of The Resistance, and the future is ours.
