The walking dead - New Beginnings

Chapter 11 - Time is slowly running out

This is from Carl's P.O.V

---------

I looked over at Robin who had gotten weaker as hours passed. She was very pale and cold and had shallow breathing. She lay next to me asleep. We had to get out of here. We just had too. I heard noise upstairs none of it awoke Robin.

"Where is she?" I heard a familiar female voice ask. There was then a thump as the person must've fell down.

I heard a person come down stairs and fumble with keys. "Fucking hell, Where is the key?" A scrawny horrible voice said. She reminded me off a witch somehow. I then heard a click of the door so she had found the key. The door swung open and an old chubby woman entered. She was very old but surprisingly strong. I then noticed Aurora over her shoulder. We were doomed.

I watched helplessly as the woman chained up unconscious Aurora. The woman then walked off and took a look at me before she left "Be quiet, or the young yin' dies" She crackled pointing at Robin. I looked at Robin concern in my eyes. The woman left and locked the door and I went over to Aurora shuffling quietly because I was weak too.

I shook Aurora until I saw her eyes flutter open. "Mm....Where, Where am I?" Aurora said quietly and then faced me. "Carl? What, Where, Where's Robin?" She asked finally realising.

I pointed to her barely moving body. "Is she dead?" Aurora asked assuming the worst.

"No, She's ill though, She'd also quite weak the woman took her and cut her arm for some reason probably to get you over into the house, she bandaged her up though but she ain't doing well" I answered my voice quite faint. I felt tears in my eyes but I didn't let them fall.

"What do they want from us?" She asked me.

"They're Cannibals" I replied simply much distaste in my voice. I heard her gasp and put her hand over her mouth. "They cut some limbs off and patch you up and eventually you don't come back" I tell her my eyes staring into the distance and hearing faint screams from Bree even though she wasn't here anymore.

"It's alright Carl, The other are coming they will get us..." Her voice but her voice was shaky I could tell she was scared.

Aurora got up still a little shaken and sat next to her sister and stroked her hair worry was in her eyes. "How long has she been like this?" Aurora asked.

"Since we got here really she's gotten a lot worse since......since other girl died..." I told her.

"Other girl?" Aurora asked.

"Her name was Bree, She was younger than Robin about sixteen, She stood up for Robin but they killed her for doing so, Robin Blames herself..." I explained.

"We have to get out of here! I'm not letting anyone touch 'er again! You hear me!" She screamed at the top of her voice.

"Keep yer voice down, She'll come back down" I tell Aurora frightened for Robin's safety.

Aurora looked at me fury in her eyes but she saw the worry in mine and sat back down.

I opened my eyes to the dull room. The whole world was blurry and fuzzy. I coughed and I felt someone hold me. I looked up and Aurora was there holding me.

I smiled but lightly my strength going away with every movement. "You will be ok Robin, I promise" Aurora told me.

I saw Carl at the other side of me. He was just as ill as me but he didn't act it. Boys always acted tough at they didn't need too. I heard noise upstairs. "Gideon! Feed the Dogs!" The woman's voice crackled.

Poor Gideon, I felt sorry for him. He isn't like them but he couldn't help us, He'd die trying. I coughed again and my whole body was shaking. I felt if I would die.
