Those eyes belonged to none other than Carl Grimes.
-Flashback-
(The Day The Apocalypse Began)
"psssst Veronica, why couldn't the pirate learn the alphabet?" Carl whispered in my ear. "Carl no jokes please we have to focus." I said trying to go back to what I was doing.
"Because he was always lost at C." he said. I rolled my eyes at the boy. " Carl when do you find the time to come up with these jo-." I was cut off by an announcement .
"STUDENTS AND STAFF THIS IS NOT A DRILL! DO NOT PANIC! TEACHERS PLEASE KEEP STUDENTS IN THEIR ROOMS UNTIL THEIR PARENTS ARRIVE! WE WILL BE HAVING THE SCHOOL GO INTO LOCK DOWN! TEACHERS SHUT THE BLINDS IN YOUR CLASSROOMS! THAT IS ALL FOR NOW!" My teacher quickly shut the blinds but kept the lights on and locked the door.
"Alright class do not panic, I want you all to pack your things and sit lined up on the wall and wait for further instructions." My classmates and I did as she said. Carl and I made our way to the wall and sat.
"Carl what is going on?" I whispered. he turned to me." I don't know but we are going to be ok." he said." Carl I don't like any of this how can you be sure?" I asked. " I don't" he said. I nodded and leaned my head on his shoulder. he put his head on mine and we sat there like that for 10 minutes.
"Veronica your dad is here, I'm going to walk you out ok." My teacher said. I picked my head up and hugged Carl. " Bye Carl." I whispered. "Bye Veronica see you soon." he said.
-End of Flashback-
"well are we pissin' our pants yet?" My dad asked. "I have a feelin we're getting close dad what about you?" I said with a smile. "Yep its gonna be pee-pee city here real soon." he said matching my smile. They all sat there sweating like pigs with fear in their eyes. I loved to see this. watching people shake at the sight of me and my father.
"Which one of you pricks.." my dad said. "is the leader?" I finished. Simon stepped forward and pointed to a man with brown hair and a beard kind of like my dad's. " this guy" Simon said.
"Hi, you're Rick right?" My dad asked. I quickly came to the realization that this is Carl's father. Carl talked about his dad a few times when we were in school but I never met him." I'm Negan and I do not appreciate you killing my men, also when I sent my people to kill your people for killing mine, you killed more of my people." my dad said. " not cool man, not cool" I said. " You have no idea how not cool that shit is." My dad said." but I think your going to be up to speed shortly. You are so going to regret crossing us.." I said. " in a few minutes, yes your are" My dad finished.
My dad started to whistle and I knew what that meant, time to bash some heads in. "I simply cannot decide...wait... I got an idea" he said smiling. I knew all too well what was gonna go down. He was going to play a game, one that he played every once in a while.
"eni............ meni...............minie...........mo.......catch...........a tiger.......by..............its toe............if.............it hollars.........let him go........"he stopped at Carl brieifly ,I tensed up even though I knew he wasn't do yet."my mother told me...............to pick the very..............best ...............and ............................you.....................are............................not.............it."he stops a redheaded man.
"anybody moves anybody says anything, cut the boy's eye out and feed it to his father, you can breathe, you can blink , you can cry....hell your all going to be doing that." my dad said.
"V you wanna take care of this one or should I ?" my dad asked. I shook my head no. I didn't want to hurt anyone that Carl knows it didn't seem right. I enjoyed killing I do, but I miss my old life I missed Carl. The fact that Carl was here threw me off but I couldn't go soft now, 4 and a half years of killing hade made me who I am I am not gonna let anything change that.But I ain't gonna bash heads tonight ." I'm gonna let you handle this one. "I said. My dad looked at me a little confused and nodded. He raised hi bat and hit the man in the head.
"suck my nuts" the man growled. My dad yelled and hit him again and again and again this time he was dead for sure. The whole group started to cry and shake even more. "oh my goodness....I need you to know me... so... back to it." He turned around and hit a korean man in the head twice.
This time the group in-front of me broke. A woman with shot hair started to sob. the man was still sitting up groaning. "buddy are you still there , it seems like your trying to speak but you just took a hell of a hit, I just puffed your stone so hard your eye ball popped out!" my dad said. he sighed "oh hell, I can see that this is hard on you guys...I'm sorry, I truly am, but I did say no exceptions." he said and hit the man again and again and again. the rest of the group including Carl started to sob. My father wasn't sorry i was sorry Carl and I had to reunite like this. And that he had to see this.
