THE YOUNG LINDEN GIRL kept her hazel eyes peeled, staring around her and taking in her surroundings for any explosive traps that could blow her up. Right in front of her, Danielle had watched as an infected walked right into a trap, that she had not seen, and explode right then and there. Crimson red blood and guts had flown everywhere, splattering across the nearby walls.
Ellie Williams, who had explained her experience with explosive traps afterwards, out of natural instinct had reached out, gripping tightly to the grey woollen fabric of Danielle's sweatshirt and had yanked the brunette away from the explosion and out of harm's way.
Both Danielle and Dina learned part of the redheads past. According to Ellie, a few years back she and Joel had been travelling across the states, the reason Ellie had stated wasn't important, when they needed to get a car from this man named Bill. This man had had an entire town to himself, rigged to the nines with explosive traps that would set off anytime the infected or a trespasser would walk into them.
As Ellie told the two of her experience with Bill and swiping a few of his things when he wasn't looking, the image of a smaller version of the redhead sneaking around and stealing from this man ran through Danielle's mind causing a small laugh to fall past her lips.
Though her joyous giggle was short lived once the trio happened upon a mangled up corpse of a horse. Tommy's horse to be specific. Laying before them was the deceased animal, flesh torn from its body, blood pouring from every bite mark. The spring weather brought along a slight heat that caused the corpse to rot faster than normal which in turn had induced a nausea producing stench.
The sound of gagging filled her ears which caused Danielle to turn around just in time to see Dina rushing off of the side to puke her guts out. The smell had caused the already nauseous, pregnant woman to throw up the little food she had in her system.
Ever the doctor, the brunette moved to Dina's side, attempting to comfort the dark haired girl by rubbing her hand along the girls back. Dina gagged and heaved until she physically had nothing left to throw up. It wasn't a pretty sight, to say the least.
"Are you okay?" Ellie asked her friend in concern.
Dina pulled herself back up into a standing position, her hand weakly swiping at her mouth. "Sorry it's just... it's the smell."
"All right." The redhead nodded her head. "He must have taken off on foot. You good to keep going?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Please." Dina was quick to agree before hauling herself over a small opening in the nearby wall. It was the most likely way that Tommy had travelled once he and his horse were attacked.
