(TWD) To Good For Me [On Hold]

Chapter 6. Pregnant

After a long warm hot shower i put on some clothes and wrap my red and black flannel shirt around my waist.

I met some of the newcomers. They seemed like decent folks. Some more complicated then others

After that Rick called Daryl and Shane over to meet over at one of their cars Rick asked my dad to join aswell i followed because i was curious. Eventually andrea joined aswell and Rick started telling my dad about Sophia the girl that got lost.

" How long has this girl been lost?" My dad asks while looking at the map he had placed on the hood of the car.

"This'll be day three." Rick answers

"County survey map. Shows terrain and elevations." Dad tells him

"This is perfect. We can finally get this thing organized. We'll grid the whole area, start searching in teams." Rick says

" you got a death wish or  something?" I tell him.

He looks confused and lost for words. It looked kinda funny actually.

"You gave three units of blood. You wouldn't be hiking five minutes in this heat before passing out." My dad explains to him.

Rick nods and looks at Shane. I follow his gaze and shake my head.

" i dont think you should push yourself just yet Mister. You'll make it worse."

Shane looks at me and takes his police cap off rubbing his head.

"Guess it's just me." Says Daryl finaly joining the conversation. He looks at me as to wait for me to make a smart ass comment. But i didnt. i put my hands up in defence.

"I'm gonna head back to the creek, work my way from there."

"I can still be useful. I'll drive up to the interstate,
see if Sophia wandered back." Says Shane

"All right, tomorrow then. We'll start doing this right." Says Rick

Shane shuffles on his feet "That means we can't have our people out there with just knives. They need the gun training we've been promising them."

My dad gives him a dissaproving look "I'd prefer you not carrying guns on my property. We've managed so far without turning this into an armed camp."

"All due respect, you get a crowd of those
things wandering in here..." he had a point but there was no point in even trying. My dad doesnt like guns. We had a Shotgun for you never know what and grandpa's old Revolver But other then that?, no way.

" We're guests here. " says Rick taking out his revolver " This is your property and we will respect that." He puts it on the hood" after Shane puts his gun down with doubt Rick speaks up."First things first, set camp, find Sophia."

"I hate to be the one to ask, but somebody's got to. What happens if we find her and she's bit? I think we should all be clear on how we handle that." Shane asks.

"You do what has to be done." Rick answers. That was the answer i was dreading. I knew my dad didnt agree with that.

"And her mother'? What do you tell her?" I ask
