Mercy For The Living Dead (Z Nation)

Zombie Road Part One

Season 2 Episode 3 part one

The group were currently hiking through Wyoming, the van ran out of petrol a little while back so they had to ditch it. They were all quiet especially Addy, still reeling from the lost of Mack even Murphy was quieter than usual.

While Ellie was sad about the loss of Mack, she was more concerned about watching Cassandra who was at the back of the group just incase whatever control Murphy had over her lost effect.

"We are going the wrong direction. Again" Murphy complained. So much for Murphy being quiet, Ellie thought to herself

"You left us no choice" Warren said "Too much fallout in the west"

"Again. That That was not my fault"

"How is that not your fault" Ellie said they same time Doc said

"Murphy, don't make me have to explain the term 'failsafe doomsday weapon' again, please"

"How do you even know California's still there?" Murphy said ignoring both of them

"You're looking ripe. You better hope it's still there" Vasquez said stepping up behind Murphy and pushing him in the back forcing him forward "Move"

"You are not the boss of me" He said whirling round to face him as Vasquez got into his face "She is...... and Ellie..." He said pointing at Warren and then Ellie. Who raised an eyebrow at him.

"I can handle this" Warren said stepping up to Vasquez putting a hand on his chest to stop him from going forward.

"Move" she said turning back to Murphy giving him a little shove

"Gladly" He said sarcastically before walking off

"You'll get used to him" Warren told Vasquez and Ellie snorted holding in her laughter as they carried on walking after Murphy

Walking towards the edge of a small cliff they could see smoke coming from the bottom and Warren turned to 10k

"10K, let me see your scope" handing it to her she looked down at the vehicles

"Oh, looky here" she said looking at the truck currently on fire

"What are we gonna do about her?" 10k asked turning to look at Cassandra who was currently giving Murphy a back massage while they sat on a rock a strand of grass in his mouth

"Cassandra?"

"She's not Cassandra" 10k said firmly "Not anymore"

"I still think theres something of her in there" Ellie said turning to look at them

"Maybe there's a way back for her,when we get to California" Warren said

"Maybe" 10k said nodding and he turned to look back at Cassandra with Ellie and as they did Cassandra made eye contact and they both saw a small smile appear on her face before she snapped out of it again. Going back to give Murphy a massage.' maybe there is something of Cassandra left' Ellie thought

"Is that some kind of post-apocalyptic wagon train?" Doc said walking over to them as a big modified 18 teen wheeler truck drove past

"Well, it ain't the 3:10 to Yuma" Warren said as more cars pulled up and gunfire started forcing the big truck to pull over

"Don't get out of the truck" Warren mumbled as people got out and returned fire

"lt's gonna be a slaughter" Addy agreed

"Can't expect to travel through a valley without an ambush" Murphy said unhelpfully "Didn't nobody ever watch Westerns growing up?"

"Only you" Ellie quiped not still looking at the people.
