You duck beside the tree and peak out, another bullet flies out across the woods. It cracks into a tree beside you, sending wood splintering into your clothes. You grit your teeth, "We don't want any problems!" You yell, their response is sending another bullet towards you.

"Y/N, what do we do?" AJ says from a tree behind you, "I..I. We have to kill them, peace isn't an option it seems." You respond. Clem looks over at you. "Whatever happens, I'm with you Y/N." Clem says from another tree to the left of you. Another bullet flies out towards you. "AJ, do you have that gun?" You ask, he throws it at the ground beside your feet. You quickly pick up the pistol in one quick motion and aim it out from where you saw the bullets coming from and fire a shot.

The bullets stop for a moment then come again, someone starts walking through the forest. You peak out again and realize its the man from the train station, who's now missing his left arm. Its stub is wrapped around with a bloodied bandage.

"Its the guy from the train station." Clem says looking over at you. "I thought he got bit?" AJ frowns, his eyes resting on the man walking through the woods.

"You can survive if you cut off the limb quick enough." You respond.

"Alright, Clem take this gun, fire at him if he tries anything shady. AJ I need you to watch for people, if you see someone. Let Clem know. I'm gonna rush him." AJ and Clem both nod.

You dash towards him, knife unsheathed and prepared. He tries pointing the shotgun but you smack it out of his hands. The gun goes flying to the left of him. He tries grabbing your wrist but you kick him in the knee. Making him drop down onto his left leg. "Tough motherfucker aren't you?"  He grunts, his right knee bleeding through his pants.

You just nod, raising the knife to his throat. Thats when you feel a barrel pressed against the back of your head. "Drop. It." A female voice says from behind you.

You curse your luck and drop the knife while raising your hands. The man grabs his shotgun and hits you in the stomach with the butt of it. The female behind you kicks you in the back, making you fall forward. She then places her boot against your neck.

You look around for Clem and AJ but don't see any sign of them. That's when you see someone coming out from the woods, knife raised high. The man points the shotgun towards your head. You realize its AJ, but wheres Clem you wonder.

"Any closer boy and you might get his head blown off." The man says, AJ stops and the man walks towards him. "Nice to see you again squirt!" He knocks the shotgun against AJ's head and he drops to the ground.

"AJ!" You yell, Both the people ignore you. "I've seen these two. Fighters, both of them, but wheres the other girl?" Abel asks. Pointing the shotgun nonchalantly towards you. He grabs AJ up by his arm; twisting it behind AJ's back.

"Dead, Eaten." You lie, he shrugs and looks around again before speaking, "Well, it doesn't matter. Its still a good catch."

"Yeah. We're looking for a kid here. Runs a community. How about you take us to it." She says, you sigh and flip her off.

"Fuck you." You say, the woman kicks you to the side. Face pointed towards the sky. Thats when you notice who it is. Its Lily the last time you seen her was when Lee left her behind.

"Y/N.. I-You probably don't remember me, I'm Lily, its been a while since we've seen each other. Do you remember me?" Lily asks, you grunt in response. "I remember. You killed Carly." She frowns and offers her hand. You smack it away and stand up on your own.

"Lee isn't with you. So he's dead, then. I don't blame you for leaving me on the side of the road. I was a danger to the group. But keeping that kid, you'll die the same way Lee probably did. Protecting him. It happened to Lee and it'll happen to you." Lily says, her eyes glaring at you intensely.
