Hats And Swords | Clementine |

"Take a look at our trump card!"

"Rosie! Where is she?" Clem can hear Marlon shout as they make it outside to the entrance gate. Louis was leaning against the wall. The blonde girl from earlier was there too; looking outside the gate her hands on the bars. But no sign of (Y/n) there. Was she already out there? Clem grew an unexpected worry for her as she looked around again. Maybe she missed her on her way here?

After Marlon gave up he turned to Clem. "You got your weapon?" He asked, taking his own in his hands. The girl nods and shows him her long knife. He nods and speaks again, addressing the rest.

"Good, we need you to put it to good use. We've got a hunting party out there trying to get back inside. Need our help to clear a path." He informed them as they all looked out the gate.

"There are more walkers than usual so be extremely cautious." A voice said from behind them. Turning they see it was (Y/n) walking towards them clicking some straps across her chest with what looked like throwing knives. Clementine senses a new aura from her, almost scary.

Marlon nods at her and goes to speak when he gets cut off. "Almost like something drew their attention...like I don't know an explosion. Or a car crash," Violet said sarcastically, looking over towards Clem as she glared at her.

"Violet, play nice." (Y/n) warned the blonde not wanting another headache caused by unnecessary arguments. Violet quickly looked back out the gate to avoid (Y/n) gaze. "I'm just saying." But Clem wasn't gonna let anyone talk down to her either. She glared back and spoke up.

"Are you insinuating something?"

"Clementine." (Y/n) warned once more making the said female look at her, her eyes softening when (Y/n) sent her a small apologetic smile shaking her head to signal that it's not worth it. "Y'know. Just speculating." Violet retorted back, making (Y/n) sigh softly, shaking her head.

Louis cleared his throat softly, sensing the tension and noticeable irritation from the girls he decided to lighten the mood. Since that's what he's good at. "Hi Clementine . I'm Violet, nice to meet you and I'm sorry (N/n) for not being a well-behaved human being." He mocked Violet's voice.

This made Clem look at him with a raised eyebrow and (Y/n) smiled a ghost of a smile and snorted softly, fixing her straps. Violet glares at the male as she slowly looks over her shoulder.

"Yeah...what he said." Willy looks down at them from the watchtower. "Alright boys and girls. They're starting to fill in!" He yelled pointing outside.

(Y/n) nodded up at Willy and walked past the trio. Pushing the gate open. "Let's get this over with. The sun's going down." She unshelled one of her swords, spinning it skillfully in her hand to face it the right way. Blade out in front.

"Come on." Violet commands as she follows (Y/n) into battle.

"Be careful out there." Marlon warned, taking an arrow from his back pouch and running after the girls. Clementine looked after them and let out a sigh 'and I thought I was a bitch.' Louis walked in front of her and held up a chair leg with multiple nails hammered into it.

"Don't mind violet. She uh... grows on you. I promise." Clem was still looking at the choice of weapon, raising an eyebrow. Louis took note and looked at the chair leg holding it up in front of him. " oh this? It's a chair leg. I call it 'chairles'." He smiled proudly at his clever wording and set off out the gate leaving a confused Clem behind as she shakes her head and follows. Clementine closes the gate door behind her.

The gate closed just as AJ was about to follow Clementine holding the bars as he called out to her. " Clem, let me help!" Clem turns and kneels down to his height " I need you to watch my back. Call out from inside if you see anything. Cool?" She instructed AJ, making him look down, not wanting to just look out. But nonetheless he agreed. "Okay.."
