"Carl!" my dad shouted, running in, gun aimed.  i just stood there shaking, my gun still pointed at her. secratly hoping i missed. but of course i hadnt. "carl?"my dad said, kneeling down infront of me, putting his hands on ,my shoulders. "son ? you okay?" he asked, i just stared back at him. blinking back the tears, he pulled me into a hug, i dropped my gun,and collapsed onto him, sobbing into his chest. "its not fair, its not fair!" i screamed, pushing him away. dad just looked at the ground. i turned to walk towards the door, and saw daryl stood there, crossbow aimed at me, with glenn and maggie stood behind him, knives at the ready. then it dawned on me, they exspected me to go nuts , like dad. i just pushed past him and walked into my room, slamming the door behind me. austin was sat on my bed, with a necklass in his hands. he looked nervous. " hey" he said, standing up and walking over to me. "look kid.." he started " what do you want!" i interruped, tapping my foot imatientlly. "um Emily um wanted you to have this." he held out the necklass. i took it off him and he walked quickly out of the room. the necklass was a dog tag, with the name emily on it. i turned over and saw an enscription on the back. life goes on it said. i smiled to myself, putting it around my neck. "yes" i muttered "yeah, it does"
