Chapter 35

"You said a couple of days why isn't she awake" I look up at the darkness to the sound of a familiar voice 'Rick.' "She'll wake up in her own time, and when she does she'll want to see daryl" hershels fatherly voice echos softly in the darkness with silence following. "I know but wha- what if she turns" ricks voice is shakey there's movement before a small sigh is heard "That's not going to happen she's as healthy as she can be, no fever she's okay for now." Hershels voice holds no impatients just worry.

"Okay, I'll take the cuffs off but if there is any sign that she is not gonna make it I- I need to do it." Ricks words echos around me in the darkness before my eyes stare at the black floor beneath my knees. 'I love you' I look up hearing ricks voice again, looking around I see a small tv emitting a dim light. Standing up I slowly walk to it seeing myself laying on the ground with blood pooling around my neck with rick bent over me then the tv disappears.

Looking around again I sigh giving up on trying to find it. Walking back to where I was originally I stop when I hear low gurgling sounds accompanied by sloshing. Slowly turning around I see ricks back to me with me laying infront of him. Taking small steps I softly speak 'Rick' there's no response just grunts and skin ripping. Stepping around I gasp at the sight of rick eating my organs from my torn open stomach.

A small scream forces its way out of my throat when rick starts getting shot in the back from the darkness. A loud bang suddenly errupts shaking the black floor and walls causing me to jump. I watch in horror as the mouth opens and loud screams come from my body on the floor the gunfire getting louder. The screaming turns into baby cries as the body that once was mine turns into baby Judiths with rick still eating. covering my mouth tears stream down my face. Shaking my head I run at a still hunched over rick tackling him then everything disappears and I fall into a black pit again.

My eyes feel heavy as I try forcing them open Judiths screams and gunfire echoing. It takes what seems like forever to open my eyes before I have to shut them from the intrusion of light. Groaning pain errupts from my throat making me unconsciously grab it feeling a swollen line with what feels like fishing line woven through it. The screaming comes back to me and I slowly open my eyes blinking the dull pain away from behind them.

Looking around the foreign cell I remember looking at rick as my neck felt like it was exploding. Grabbing the top bunk I pull myself up with sore muscles before standing up. Instantly grabbing the sink and closing my eyes from the sudden pulsing in my head along with black dots creeping in my vision. Ticking my jaw I blink a few times before looking up at myself in the mirror seeing the bruise on my cheek a light purple color along with the small cut and bruise on my forehead.

Lifting my head up a little bit stopping when I feel a pull. A couple tears fall from the side of my face as I stare at the red bruised flesh pulled together by stitches. Closing my eyes I put my head back down 'Ugly' slamming my hand on the sink I see my pale flat stomach from my torn tank top. Turning around I see my flannel and quickly grab it before walking out and storming to ricks cell to see a still screaming judith. Looking down at her red face I run my knuckle down her cheek removing the tears.

Pulling my tank top off I look at the hair under my arm 'That's gonna need to be taken care of' I sigh putting the tank top on the side of her basket I pull the flannel on quickly buttoning my bottom buttons. Picking up judith I look back at the windows hearing the ongoing gunfire. Rocking back and forth I try my best to soothe the scared baby with pain continueing to rack through my neck up to the base of my skull. 'Everthings gonna be okay don't worry about your daddy and brother' I say in my head smiling trying to calm her down.

The gun fire stops making my nerves sky rocket but I continue rocking back and forth as Judiths cries turn into whimpers and hiccups. The gunfire starts again making me slightly jump startling the baby in my arms. 'Shh it's alright' walking up the stairs to my cell I grab my gun before sitting on my bed scooting back so my back is against the wall with my feet hanging off the edge. 'Please be okay' I silently wish before pulling my knees up leaning judith against them.
