You feel as if you've been dropped into your body when you realise that your body is just walking through the forest on its own.

Max has control.

You: what are you doing?

Max: I'm finishing what you started.

He says walking through the forest.

You: what did you do?

You say worried for your family. It's weird when talk in his head it feels like speaking underwater. Like no one can hear you.

Max: nothing yet.

You: it's dangerous out here. Take us home you're going to get us killed.

You say trying to push for control but he's been in control for to long now and once he's in the swing of things there's no getting him off of it.

He's holding all the cards.

You: I'll do anything if you give me control back.

Max: right now I want to do one thing and I want to do it myself. I'm solving your problems.

You notice he's wandering towards the raider camp.

You: dude this isn't funny you're walking us towards death itself.

Max: you'd only die because you're to pussy to do what it takes to get shit done.

you: this isn't the time to try proving a point.

Max: this isn't about proving a point. These guys are stressing you out and it's making me... erratic. Plus they hurt...

He trails off.

Max: and all you seem to be hell bent of doing is wait for them to come to you. This lets them form plans, choose when to attack, get the element of surprise. This is how you get us killed. So I'm going to flip it on their heads.

You: just head back and we can make an actual plan.

Max: fuck you and fuck your plan. I'm doing this now and you can't stop me. I'm not spending another minute waiting for you to do my entertainment.

You: killing people is your entertainment?

Max: I thrive off of it.

He says with a grin and you see the orange glow from the fire in the centre of their camp.

You try with all your might to take control and for a second you get it but you get really dizzy and fall against a tree to stabilise yourself. Max instantly retakes control.

Max: better look next time pussy hole.

Max pushes off the tree and you realise he doesn't even have any weapons.

You: what about any weapons. Did you gloss over that important detail?

Max: I don't need them. They slow you down. Clinging to them so much that you become weaker without them when they're meant to be a strength.

You: you'll need them. Don't get cocky.

Max: I've got a plan. Anyway you've not seen what I'm capable of.

You: I saw you attack clem. And you only managed to win that because no one was expecting it.

Max: that's because I was fuelled by blind hunger. Now I'm actually thinking rather than acting like walker. Now shut up I need to focus.

Max reaches the outskirts of the camp.

He watches them like a hawk with pure focus. It's like the max you know as erratic and hot headed slips away and he becomes this calculated assassin.
