Kai / 10k fanfic / Znation

~41~

We all know who will Kai meet in this chapter don't we?

Kai's pov.

We found Mack and Addy. I still didn't really want to forgive her but she apologized so I tried to forgive her. It wasn't easy but I really tried.

We found Warren a couple of hours ago. Now we were on our way to get Smurphy's ass back. The whole way my wound started to throb again. Luckily Doc managed to stitch it back up and it stopped hurting. Now I suppose that I either moved a tad bit too fast for the stitches to move so it hurt a bit.

I ignored the pain and focused on my thoughts. Something is telling me that this will be a day full of surprises. I heard someone talk so I blinked a few times and focused on the person talking. It was a small chitchat between everyone. I got involved a few times but I was in no mood for chitchat.

*time skip*

We had arrived to a small town. It was the closest so we figured that Murphy would be here. We drove into the town and when I tell you that this was the busiest town I've seen since the downfall of humanity I mean it. There were people in groups or alone sitting in their cars waiting for a chance to attack.

"Folk's are friendly here in Cheyenne." Addy said and suspiciously looked around.

"Friendly aint the vibe I'm getting." Doc replied in a tone that made me push a laugh back.

"Let's find Murphy and get the hell our of Dodge." Warren replied to Doc's comment.

"Cheyenne." Doc corrected her and I felt like laughing but what Warren said afterwards broke my attempts to remain silent.

"Whatever." She replied and that's when I chuckled. I earned a look from her and I immediately stopped.

"Sorry." I muttered and looked around taking in all the buildings around us.

After some time Warren spoke up.

"Okay so we all need to think like Murphy." We all sat in silence.

"Get inside his zombified head. And I know it's a scary place to be." She said and I made a mental note. Yeah for all of you except me apparently.

"But where would you be if you were Murphy?" She asked directing her question to no one exactly. There was another moment of silence until 10k broke it.

"Hey hold on!" He said and looked at Warren.

"You say think like Murphy?" He asked her and pointed at something. All our heads turned to face the direction he pointed in. I chuckled and whispered.

"You motherfucker." I shook my head at that and Doc spoke up too now.

"Hell, they might as well have his picture on the sign." Doc said and I chuckled again. This time I didn't get a glare so I felt somehow relieved.

We all took our stuff and went in the club. It was pretty dark there and there were colorful lights everywhere. If it wasn't for the decaying bodies everywhere hell I might just come here. I took a look around and noticed Murphy leaned against the counter.

I nudged Warren's side and nodded my head his way. She looked that way too and I could see her anger rising. Before I could try to calm her she walked up to him and had an intense conversation. I ignored it because Warren wouldn't kill him and also because once person in particularly caught my attention. Cassandra.

She was still alive. Except she now had that weird bitemark on her cheek, her eyes greenish-hazel sticking out in the dim light and her outfit inappropriate for apocalypse. I breathed in and slowly made my way to her. Nobody noticed me so I kept walking.

I was just a few inches away from her before she growled and pushed me back sending me flying back. I hit a table and it collapsed under me. Once I collided with the table the air in my lungs was stuck. I laid there looking at the ceiling trying to breathe.

Then I heard some shouting and 10k came up to me. He held out a hand for me which I gladly took. He hauled me to my feet and cupped my cheeks inspecting for any injuries. I kept looking in his eyes and I couldn't help but smile at the short distance between us.

He noticed too and blushed. I chuckled and gave him a small peck on the lips.

"I'm fine don't worry." I assured him and he nodded. Once he let me go I walked closer to Murphy. He had his smirk on his lips.

"What did you do to her?" I asked with no emotion in my face nor voice. His smirk disappeared and he spat right back.

"Saved her life. What did you do?" His words felt like a dagger in the back. I felt like killing Murphy right here and now but I knew that then Warren would kill me. I clenched my fists and went to find a quiet spot to sit in.

I found one besides the counter. I slumped down against the counter and took out all my guns. Then I tore a piece of one of my shirts that I didn't use anymore. There was still fallout but we weren't in the danger zone anymore plus I already wore one shirt and it was too hot to wear both.

I started cleaning my weapons and I listened to conversations between the team and the blueberry bitch. I smiled at his new nickname and kept cleaning my guns. It was until someone kicked the door we came trough open. The person in there seemed male and I couldn't see his face due the light that fell behind him which was at least million times brighter than the light in the club.

I stood up packing my stuff and ignoring the man. He spoke and looked around until his gaze fell on me. He stopped talking making me look up to him. Once I did a sigh escaped his lips. I still couldn't quite see him so I had no clue who he was.

I kept putting my stuff in the bag and I looked around to find some new clothes. I found some sweatpants and an oversized hoodie. I sighed and pulled off my shirt. It was stained with blood, dirt and sweat. I chucked it to the floor and then looked around to scold anyone who was looking. To my luck no one was but the man had stepped further in the club. He was speaking to the team but I ignored everything.

I quickly changed and picked up all my stuff. my hair had grown out a bit so now I could tie it back out of my face. I did look like a boy but who cares. As I went to the team  the man spoke up.

"Diego" He spoke which made me stop in my tracks. No one ever used my middle name to call me except one person. My dad.

I turned around to look at him. He had a protective vest on him. A gun in his him holster and another one in his hands. His face was full of pain. It was indeed my own father. I didn't know what to do so I just stood there staring at him. I pulled a confused face and shook my head a 'no'.

"Well if that so why do you have the same scars and eye color as her?" He asked with a smirk. Now that he was here I wanted to just drown. He chose the wrong timing to show up.

Tysm for 900 reads. Anyways the chapters will become a bit longer (around 2000 words) because I still feel like they are too short. It takes around 3-4 chapters just to finish a dang episode. Anyways stay safe love yall <3
