As Jake headed towards the food court he passed by a planter with a couple of decorative trees in it.
As he neared the planter, he might notice that there was a symbol on one of the tiles. Much like the kind of thing Pippi had mentioned to him before. When Jake was within a few feet of it, the symbol pulsed with a strange glow.
The two decorative trees were suddenly gone, and in their place were a couple of slavering zombies.
Just lovely. "Really couldn't have picked an uglier security team," Jake muttered to the air.
Not particularly wanting to deal with them up close again, Jacob grabbed the nearest heavyish object, which turned out to be a food court chair, and swung it at one of the zombies that was approaching him.
The mall speakers crackle to life. Rather then musak a gruff voice is heard...
"Ugly? I'll tell you what's ugly boy! People not being able to properly manage their shopping agenda! Now that's ugly! The mall is closed, you are in direct violation of code 8376D48 slash 72 PREPARE TO FACE MY WRATH!!!"
Technically, Jake was already facing the unseen man's wrath. Part of that wrath took a food court chair to the chest, the leg of which went right through and knocked the zombie to the ground. The zombie is pinned by the weight and awkwardness of the chair. Not having the mental or motor functions to get rid of the chair means that it's pretty much out of commission.
The other zombie is fully functional, as zombies go, and tries to sink its teeth into Jake's delicious neck.
Jake's elbow connected with a dry crunch. The zombie wavered for a moment, as if trying to figure out if Jake had destroyed enough of it's head to kill it. It ultimately decided to rule in favor of itself since it turned to have another go at getting something to eat. It has some difficulty since Jake's hit had shoved the head into an unnatural angle, but it still had hands with which to claw and grasp.
The other one wriggled under the chair anticlimactically.
He was just going to have to approach this the same as he did vampires. Ripping them to pieces... Except this was going to be so much more messy than with the stony, bloodless leeches he was used to.
Jake struck out at the zombie, making a swift grab at it's neck.
Jake growled, apparently getting a bit sick of this particular zombie. "I don't taste that great anyway," he grunted as he went to wrench the neck away from the rest of the zombie's body.
Jake dropped the zombie bits pretty quick and wiped his hands off on his cut offs, before making sure the second one that had been incapacitated by the chair had no chance of getting up, and moved onwards.
He suddenly truly appreciated the clean kill of vampires.
A spacious seating area with lots of seating, table space, and marked trash cans is the only thing that stands between Jake and the food court. It's decorated with low hanging light fixtures and planters containing over grown fichus trees.

Could've done without the decomposition and overpowering stink, though.
Didn't stop him from following his nose, as he headed towards the food court. It definitely wasn't food he was smelling this time.

He'd rather not have had to actually touch them again, but sacrifices had to be made.

The thing claws at Jake's arm and face while coming dangerously close to gnawing on the hand that holds it's throat.

It's mostly zombie free, for now.

He dodged around several, as he tried to make his way across the seating area. How long his luck would last out, he wasn't sure.

The pulled themselves between the tables and chairs on the floor like undead rat-seal-things and thought Jakes ankles looked scrumptious.

Jake kicked out at a couple of the zombies nearest to him. Hard. They better not try and nick his shoes. This was his only pair!
