"I don't say anything so I can let you shine."

2nd Person

Lee: "Please, don't hurt her."

Walkie (Stranger): "Hurt her? I'm not the one who hurts people."

Y/N: "Are you saying we hurt her?!" You yell.

Walkie (Stranger): "I'm so lucky there's an ocean of walkers between all of us, and if I can thank God for anything anymore, it's that!"

Lee's eyes sadden and he slowly sets down the walkie, attaching it to his belt holdings. He thinks for a moment to respond but instead mutters himself a promise.

Lee: "Just hold on, Clementine. I'm coming for you."

Y/N: "We are going to find her."

Kenny: "Yeah, don't worry, Pal. We'll get her back."

Lee turns around to look at the rest of your group and nods all the same. You notice Christa, Duck, and Omid start to stare at his bite, which seems to not have any difference over the past hour.

Christa: "How's that feeling?"

Lee: "Doesn't matter. It is what it is."

You and Omid look down, still trying to believe this is really happening.

Christa: "We don't have much time."

Before Lee can respond, the hole in the wall starts to fill with loud walker groans, again. This time it's not an echo, but the actual walkers are there, slowing crawling their way through the hole.

Kenny: "We're about to have a lot less! We'll all make sure nothing gets in. You two are still the smartest motherfuckers outta all of us, try to find another way out of here."

Y/N: "You two?"

Kenny: "You and Lee." He slams the door of the basement shut, using all of his weight to keep it closed.

You nod at his response start to quickly search around with Lee. There's a half built wall in the middle of the room with a sink, counters, and come cabinets. Lee takes a look at the surgical supplies left behind on the counters while you take a look in the cabinets. It takes the third cabinet you open to find something useful, a rib spreader.

Lee: "Egh." He groans in disgust. "Can't imagine that being used on a body."

Y/N: "I can't either." You shake your head and quickly grab it.

You and Lee walk behind the half built wall and see... elevator doors? But they're shut. Damn.

Y/N: "Maybe this is our way out."

Lee: "Yeah."

Together, you both use your strength to slightly pull apart the closed elevator doors, and jam the rib spreader through the open space.

Y/N: "There, easy peasy."

Lee hums in agreement and starts cranking the spreader, causing the space between the doors to open wider.

Y/N: "Here, let me do it. You sound like you're gonna take your arm off."

You start cranking the doors open and after a few seconds, you over-crank it and the spreader snaps, shattering and falling on the floor... but at least the door's open.

Y/N: "I got it open!"

Lee: "Come on!" He yells at the others.

The rest of the group hears and rushes through the doors that take you to an open space where the elevator is supposed to be, but there's a ladder that climbs up floor to floor.
