[Video] [Action] Something's Stinky in Everglade
[Heavy breathing. The scene is a bit shakycam--of a rooftop in Everglade. Multiple screams keep erupting in the background.]
This is Wanda Maximoff. I'm on a rooftop in Everglade near the river and we've got zombies. Big goddamn zombies. They're coming out of the dead area. [The camera shifts to focus in on one of the things--twelve feet tall, massively muscled, and lumbering along at an alarmingly fast clip. She zooms to take in the street signs nearest it.]
[These things are tougher than regular zombies by a lot. Fire won't work fast enough unless there is a lot of it. They don't get pinned down easily and blunt instruments are useless unless you smash a whole car into their heads or something. [Her voice is mostly calm but there's a tiny shake down at the bottom of it.] Decapitation, destroying the brain stem, total destruction. Their necks are protected by a lot of muscle and their skulls are way thicker than a human's. But they can die, and if we don't get them all--
[A pause as a low, rumbling roar sounds below, coupled with a human scream. Wanda runs over to the edge, looks down, and gestures. There's a tremendous flash of blue light, followed by a heavy thud. The human screaming dwindles into the distance as the hysterical survivor gets away. She looks back up at the camera.]
There is no way I can get all of them before they start eating people.

She watched the free-form shapeshifting and fire-breathing wide-eyed for a moment. "Like an Undead Martian Manhunter. The Hell are you doing that?"
And then he answered it himself, and she got a huge "aha!" expression on her face even as she tried popping a zombie's head with pure psychokinetic force. She knocked it over but it started getting up again. "Damn, not enough focus." She speared it with a chunk of broken telephone pole instead.
"You're a manifested ghost! Oh that's it! I was wondering how you could shapeshift that much with a meat body. I'm not actually a medium. I know ghosts are around, but I can't see or hear you guys yet normally. It's just that for some reason undead people seem to like me. Even a scary Death Knight once.
"I'm okay with it. I mean, if I let myself be scared away by you guys I'd never get to meet my family."

Betelgeuse switched back to his main form and went back to slicing and dicing the zombies. He chortled, watching her fight with part of his attention. He hadn't had this much fun in ages!
