The Walking Dead: Levi's Story Part 1

A New Beginning

Levi felt a deep drowsiness, something he had not felt in a long time. He couldn't see or hear. It was like he was in a void and he felt a deep emptiness. His mind flashed scattered memories of his life right up until what happened to him recently.

"Zeke!" He yelled, bolting up right as the man flashed through his head. He immediately regretted it and deep pain flashing through his ribs, forcing him back down onto the bed in pain.

Wait, bed?

Levi turned his head, looking around but saw nothing familiar in the small but decorated room. Where was he? He felt a pain deep in his ribs and pulled his shirt up to look at the damage only to find white bandages that looked a bit dirty. He grunted at them not liking them but not too keen on removing them as he saw a small patch of fresh blood that meant he was still bleeding.

He would have to keep them on for now but he seriously couldn't wait to find fresh bandages. He decided after 10 minutes of staying up that he would go back to sleep. He had been fighting it off and he hadn't heard any voices wherever he was and reasoned to himself that whoever healed him wanted him dead they would've done so while he was out.

In the next couple of seconds, he was out like a light.

XxX

He woke up to a very unfamiliar man wrapping bandages around him and I startled him. He rose quickly and before the man could even back away, Levi tackled him. He tried to hit him in the face but Levi grabbed his arm and slammed it onto the ground, pinning the man in an unbreakable grip.

"Where am I and who are you?" Levi demanded, glaring down at him.

"My name is Carlos and you're at my camp." He answered quickly.

His camp? Levi thought briefly. "You said camp. You have a group with you? How many of you are there?"

"T-there's 7 of us. Well 8 now if we include the new one." He answer after a second of counting in his head. Levi thought he was telling the truth enough.

"I'm going to get off you slowly and I want you to wait until I'm up completely before you get up." Levi instructed slowly. "You make any sudden moves and I'll smash my foot down your throat so far you'll be shitting teeth tonight. Understand?"

Carlos nodded and slowly Levi began to back away and stand up straight. Carlos did as instructed and didn't move until Levi was completely up then he got up slowly himself.

"Sorry for attacking you." Levi suddenly said after a bit of silence. "You startled me with your wrapping."

"That's ok. Speaking of that, won't you mind sitting back down?" He gestured to the bed. "The bandages aren't completely wrapped. It'll only take a second."

"Fine." Levi decided after a moment of thinking. He sat on the bed. "But wrap it while in front of me. I don't trust anyone behind my back."

"Alright." The next couple of minutes were filled with silence as Carlos wrapped the bandages around his ribs all the way to his belly button. He caught the deep gash that had traveled from his ribs down to his belly button and wondered how long it would take to heal.

"Alright, almost done." He announced.

Levi nodded.

Suddenly, the door opened and another man came in. "Hey, Carlos. Rebecc- Wait, he's awake?"

"Yea, he's awake." Carlos responded turning to him. "What's going on with Rebecca, Luke? You were about to say something right?"

"Aw, yea. She just wanted to talk to you downstairs. I don't know what about though." Luke answered.
