Chapter 1: Pete's Revenge

Chapter 1: Pete's Revenge

I peek my head over the wall looking left and right. I see Pete walk out of the newbie's house with a katana covered in blood. I climb down the wall and rush over to the house. Once I'm in all I hear is the crying of a baby and I see the new kid with blood rushing out of his leg. I grab the baby and rush out of the house. I go and run towards the meeting place." Deanna! Deanna!" I screech." Tia?" She asks, I nod." It's the new kid! Pete cut his leg wide open!" I yell at her." What are you doing with my daughter?" The new constable asks," She was crying, I wasn't going to leave her." I tolled him as I bounced her on my hip. She soon stopped crying and laid her head on my shoulder." Wait, did you say Carl was bleeding out?" The constable asked, I have yet to learn there names." I don't know the kid's name, but the boy is bleeding out." I said. I grabbed his arm and dragged him towards the house. Once we get back the boy is pail, like white as a ghost pail, and surrounded by a pool of blood. There's little to no chance he's even alive. I hand the baby to the constable and grab gauze from my bag along with my knife. He was cut right above the knee. I cut his pants leg off a few inches above it." I need water and a rag." I demand as I begin to put pressure on it, he better be glad he's not awake right now. Deanna nods and rushes to get what I asked for." If you knew what you were doing then why didn't you do this yourself without getting us?" He asked. I sighed," Because I need help. I need to keep pressure on it, but I can't do that and get the supplies." I tell him. He nods and Deanna rushes back in with a bowl of water and a rag. She places it beside me and back away. I grab the rag and soak it. I somewhat ring it out and clean the blood away." It's not to deep, nothing was damaged enough for surgery, all he needs it stitches and rest. Well, that and a blood. He doesn't need to much, I believe Pete had those supplies?" I ask. Deanna nods as the constable begins explaining about when the kid was shot." His names Carl right?" I ask. He nods," I'm Rick, thanks for helping my son." Rick thanks me putting his free hand on my shoulder. I nod as I continue to try and stop the blood from rushing out if Carl's leg.

I just finished taking down the IV we set up for Carl. He's already got the blood he need's back and his leg is already wrapped. He's in his bed already. I double check his bandages and look up at his face. The color isn't normal yet, but it's somewhat coming back. I reach out and push his hair out of his eyes. I notice a black, purple, and blue mark forming on his forehead. I grab my bag and quickly begin looking for Rick Grimes." Mr. Grimes!" I call out. He emerges from the nursery." What's wrong?" He asks," There's a bruise on Carl's forehead. Please come and get me when he wakes up. I live in the lone house in the very back of Alexandria." I inform him. I can see the worry in his eyes," Don't worry, he's in good hands. My nana was never in good health, I went with her to a lot of her appointments. I was the doctor for my old group. He's in good hands, now that Pete's gone I'm the best doctor here." I assure him. He sighs and nods.
