My Rule

Chapter 42

I pulled away from Carl and ran out of the room with him following behind me. We turned every which way but it was like a gigantic maze. We've only been here a week but the place is huge.

We found a door to the open and we went through it being welcomed by dozens of walkers; dead and half dead. I heard a snarl come from behind me and I turned around fast shoving the knife in its face. It fell flat and I continued with this for a while. I was getting tired. My ankle was hurting.

I heard my name being called and I turned around to see Carol. I ran to her. She grabbed me and we quickly walked to under one of the tables. She shot from a distance as I asked her my millions of questions.

"How did they get in?"

"Glenn and Adam were on watch and he pushed Glenn and *bang* he fell back and they hit the *bang bang* button to open the gate. I don't know anything else but only know *bang* that they definitely weren't watching where the walkers were." She breathed heavily.

We saw walkers coming close and she shooed me out from under the table. I saw Brianna being attacked by walkers. I ran to her but a walker came from underneath me and tripped me. I fell on my hands and cursed.

I turned around and stabbed it in the forehead. "You little shit!"

Man that hurt. I got up and stabbed a couple more in the face. Blood poured out from their decaying toxic faces onto my shirt. Well, it wasn't mine it was Brianna's. Oh I hope she wouldn't mind.

I went to go to her but more walkers blocked my path. "You've got to be freakin kidding me." I mumbled stabbing them. One came up to me snapping its jaws at me. I made a face and punched it out of my way. It fell and I stabbed it in the face.

I looked up and saw Enid having trouble killing a walker. She screamed but everyone else was having trouble getting to her. I sighed in frustration. Although I hated her to the point where I wanted to kill her, it wasn't the right thing to do.

I grabbed my knife and ran to her. I pushed some walkers out of the way and jumped up onto the tables. I carefully hopped on each one getting closer to her. It fell on her and I jumped up and landed down on the walker stabbing it in the back of the head.

She screamed as the blood poured out from its face. I pulled it off my knife but it was stuck. Enid was surprised as to who saved her.

"You?"

"Me. Your welcome." I said looking at her then back at the walker. I tried pushing it off but it wouldn't budge. "SON OF A BITCH!" I yelled shaking it wildly.

"Can't you just pull it off?" She yelled in concern shooting down some walkers.

"The damn thing is stuck!" I yelled. It was stuck between the teeth and neck. I got tired and threw it on the ground.

There were a few more to get out. I was scared, and unarmed. I ran up on the wall climbing the bars to the wall. One bar was unscrewed and I fell. I grabbed onto the bricks and pulled myself up onto it.

I rambling the wall and got to Brianna. I kicked the walker in the gut off of her. It's kinda funny, and ironic. I kicked it in the gut when all it eats is guts. I mentally laughed hysterically in my mind. I pulled Brianna to her feet and asked her if she was okay.

"Yeah I'm good. My shirt..." She said. "I'm so sorry." I said. "Nah it's okay. It was way too small for me. It looks cooler now." She said.

I smiled laughing but it soon faded away as we saw the big mess that we all had made. I heard Rick and the leader of Alexandria ask if everyone was okay. Once we checked everyone the guys started disposing the dead.

Brianna and I got cleaned up and went to dinner. We had deer meat, mashed potatoes, and some day old bread. Carl and Enid didn't really talk at dinner. It was weird.

I put on my pajamas and talked with Brianna. She told me some stories about her childhood.

"Then, when no one else was in the boys bathroom, I put ketchup packets under the toilet seats so whenever someone sat down, people would say, "Man you're a girl?!" It was hilarious in my mind. Plus, I got Zachary once with it at our house."

"That did not happen." He said coming in at the doorway rubbing his hands together sitting down next to me.

"Yes it did. You were taking a shit then felt something roll down your leg and came out crying to my mom."

"No, I sat down to text someone then I felt it trickle down my leg. And I wasn't crying I was sick and had allergies!"

I started laughing and he put an arm around me. "Don't listen to her. She's a liar." He said.

"You shouldn't talk about yourself like that Zachary." She said reading her magazine. I smiled and we all shared stories until we got tired and fell asleep. Zach and I fell asleep with me facing away from him and him facing me with his arm around me. Carl also did this to me.

Ugh, why did I ever disobey My Rule?
