Dawning of the Dead Chapter Nine

Definitely the most difficult chapter yet- took four false starts to get it going and progress was hampered by events in the real world. I had intended this chapter to be quite different but it just didn't work out that way. A new set of characters do turn up though so that should all a little interest to events. At least one major character was due to make an exit here but he, or she, got a reprieve- for now.
