Project V (Clementine X Male Reader Book 4)

Walkers

Your POV...

Marina: They've been stacking up for hours.

You: All around?

Marina: All around.

You: And they don't move past that point.

Marina: They're trying. We had someone go over and check it out. They swarmed that area until he left and then spread out again. There's like an invisible wall there or something.

Just like the gate at that community yesterday.

Marina: There's a herd of them surrounding us. I haven't seen this many in years.

Brooklyn: Are they fast?

Marina: Not sure. I assume, yes.

Brooklyn grabs your wrist and pauses the simulation.

You: What?

Brooklyn: Emma?

Emma: Hello?

Brooklyn: You can turn the screen back on.

Emma: Mhm, it's already on.

Brooklyn: Oh?

Emma: Whenever you're ready, we can give you your admin privileges.

She changes the subject.

Brooklyn: Um... Right now, then. It would be nice being invulnerable for this.

Emma: Ok.

A watch appears on her wrist with a whoosh sound.

Brooklyn: Look at that!

She holds it up to inspect it.

Brooklyn: Mine is cooler than yours.

You: They're the same.

Brooklyn: Nuh-uh. Mine is cooler.

You look at yours and then at hers.

You: Yep... Yours is... So much cooler.

Brooklyn: I knew you'd come around. Thanks, Emma.

She starts the world again and turns to look at the Walkers.

Brooklyn: Something happened out there, Y/N.

You: Mhm.

Marina: What?

Brooklyn: The screens shouldn't have been turned on.

Marina: What's going on?

You: No, they shouldn't have.

Marina: Guys?

You: Nothing, Marina. Just some stuff on our end.

She sees Brooklyn's watch.

Marina: Oh, you paused.

You: Yeah.

Marina: I wish I could see the world frozen in time. That would be cool.

Thunder. Loud, booming thunder. You didn't see the lightning, but it had to have been close because it was loud.

Brooklyn: We should probably pick up the pace on trying to figure out how to get out.

You: Yeah. Marina, we're going to go over there and check it out.

Marina: Oh, ok... Be careful.

You: We will.

You turn invulnerability on and jump from atop the vantage point you had. Brooklyn jumps down beside you.

Brooklyn: This thing is nice. That should have hurt.
