I Give You a Rose to Stab All the Zombies to Death

In Earth's final year, only two people remain.

Beneath the wreckage of the land, those things no longer look like bloodied, flesh-and-bone creatures.

Two children stand at the very top of the world. The last flower in an oxygen tank scatters its petals among the dust of the mutants.

"Did you see it? The rose?"

"I did. It was just us two."

"Shh, they're back."

The boy raises his gun and points it at the girl. With one last sigh, the two fall into a pool of blood among the corpses.
