Any more thoughts?? This is just my tongue in cheek take.
Now is not the time to lose your head. Leave that to those outside who are about to realise you are no push over. Keep your cool, knowing even then your body temperature is still going to higher than that of the first undead who is unlucky enough to break through the barrier you have erected. That kid is looking up to you, and rightly so. You are his protector and the one likely to recreate a sense of calm. Not sure though, he should be behind you. If they do break through he is likely to be first in the firing line, but maybe that has been your plan all along. It shows you don't let sentiment get in the way of carrying out your duty. What's a little collateral damage if you have another kid waiting at home anyway. So, what is going to be your weapon of choice when push comes to shove? The hatchet or the rifle? One thing's for sure - you can't use both at the same time, so now is the time to really think things through and do some planning whilst you still have time. Otherwise there is a risk that kid will not be able to carry off the brag at school of "my dad is harder than your dad". Procrastinate, and he won't actually have a dad left to brag about.
