Surviving The Undead: A Southsider's Tale (Daryl Dixon Love Story)

Old Friends

Kims POV:

It had been about a day since the encounter and i had left the mall at about dusk after gathering supplies for me and the baby and began heading to the farm but was cut off by a herd that pushed me further away.

"Oh shit!" I mumbled.

I turned and ran the other direction heading towards Newnan High School.

It was now dark out when i reached the school and it was overrun.

I saw 2 guys hidden behind a police cruiser and they looked like they were stuck.

I crept up to the car next to them.

"Psst what the fuck are you doing here this place is overrun!" I whisper-yelled.

"I could ask you the same little lady." The slimmer man said.

"Man you both are cra-" I cut myself off.

I picked up a discarded flare and held it up so i could look at the men and it's was Shane and Otis.

I chucked the flare guiding the walkers away before embracing Shane completely forgetting about all he's done.

"Your alive!" He said.

"Yeah i am, where's the rest of the group?"

"On the highway but um Kim." He started.

"What?"

"Carl got shot while we were looking for Sophia."

"Oh my god!" I looked up at him with wide eyes.

I turned to Otis and embraced him.

"You know eachother?" Shane said.

"Yeah little lady over here went to school with Hershel's daughter." Otis said.

"Wait Shane you know Hershel?" I asked.

"Yeah he's treating Carl, Otis was the one who shot him." Shane said while glaring at Otis.

I walked up to the bigger man and slapped him upside the head.

"That's my little brother asshole!"

"Right enough we gotta go in and get the stuff Hershel needs for surgery otherwise Carl won't make it." Shane said.

I never realised the severity of the situation until now and was on the verge of breaking down.

I hadn't even taught him how to lock pick, hot wire or nothing yet.

"What are we waiting for let's go!" I said.

Shane looked at me before speaking.

"Your not coming Kim it's too dangerous an-" He cut himself off. "Is that a baby?!"

"Yes and i'll explain later but let's go we got a kid to save!"

We set off towards the school but the flare went out so they were now drawn to us.

"Shit go go go!" I yelled.

We all got into the school and pulled the shutter across but it wouldn't take a genius to figure out that the lock won't hold so we had to hurry and find another exit.

We grabbed everything we needed and we're about to head out the side entrance when the shutters broke and walkers swarmed in blocking the exit.

"HEAD FOR THE GYM!" Otis yelled.

Shane grabbed my arm and yanked me along.

We reached the gym and it was a dead end. All the doors were locked and i didn't have enough time to pick them.
