Blue's P.O.V

After Daryl cooked off in his tent for a short period and giving me a quick drink of water we made our way over to the front of the stripped fancy sports car. Daryl got his pickaxe back and begun swinging it into the skulls of the dead to ensure they wouldnt be coming back. I layed down in front of the red car and watched his actions ready for anything.

What I wasn't expecting was for Carol to slowly walk over here wet faced and red eyed. I sat up from my spot and gave a small whine towards her to let Daryl know of her presence. He looked towards me then to Carol. Its then that I notice the next corpse is Ed, Carol's husband. Being half ripped apart and eaten he was almost unrecognizable. Carol stood beside Daryl looking down at the destroyed body. Daryl stayed still and quite.

"I'll do it.....hes my husband." Carol spoke suddenly. What?! Is she serious? I whimpered quietly. Daryl then handed over the pickaxe and took a sidestep away. I got to my feet wondering how this was going to end.

Carol stayed still just looking at the corpse for what felt like minutes but was only a few seconds. Small cries begun to escape her lips as she raised the pickaxe above her shoulder. There she seemed to hesitate and looked as she wasn't going to do it. I took a couple steps forward to stand just behind Daryl. Then she suddenly swung the pickaxe down and into Ed's skull with a loud crack of bone.

But what I thought was done got worse, Carol then begun to swing the pickaxe again, and again, and again many times. Both Daryl and I looked on in shoke. This bitch is crazy!  But then I realized she was taking out all the abuse she had taken from him and giving it back in a sicking way.

After a while Carol stopped swing and dropped the pickaxe, crying quietly still. I layed my ears back and nudged Daryl's leg quietly. He reached down and slowly pet my head. What's going to go wrong next...
