2002 A.D., St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands

A zombie--bloated, waterlogged, with skin completely dissolved-- washed ashore on the northeast coast of the island. Local inhabitants were unsure of what to make of it, keeping their distance and calling for the authorities. It is thought this was only known instance of a zombie travelling long distances undersea before the war. The crowd of beachgoers, unsure what had happened to the zombie, kept out of range until police arrived. The police eventually fired shots at the zombie's chest, but it wasn't until a curious boy was grabbed and almost bitten by the zombie that a tourist from the United States comandeered an officers sidearm, and shot the zombie in the head, killing it. It is unknown what happened to the body after the incident.
