We are all running in the direction Otis said "How Far?!" My dad shouts. "Another half mile that way. Hershel , he will help your boy" Otis replies . "Elodie , you run ahead make sure they know we're coming and that they are ready , ok!" My dad shouts at me and I nod , I give one last fleeting look to carls bloodied body and run past them.

My Heart is pounding in my chest and my lungs are struggling to expand but I carry on going. I use all my techniques Mr Smith drilled into my head. I don't think I've ever ran this fast before, I barley feel my feet touching the ground anymore. I feel the pain in my arm deepen but I can't stop , Carl needs this I can't let him down. I won't. I see a farm house in the distance , this must be it.

I get to the porch and I see a brunette girl shouting for her Dad. Then a group of people come outside in front of me, I try catch my breath so I can form a sentence. "H-Hershel?" I ask , an old sweet looking man steps forward "yes that's me" he replies with confusion plastered on his face. " My brother was shot .. by your man , he he said you could help" I let out in a panicked tone. "Otis?" I hear a women say and I nod. " my dad he's got him , they should be here shortly" I state. Hershel turns to go back inside "Patrica get my full kit and the quest room ready" , "Aaron, I need painkillers, coagulates, grab everything" A Tall brunette boy nods and heads further into the house"

I stay outside waiting for my dad and Carl, my hands and legs are shaking uncontrollably. My breaths are short as I hunch over in a whirl of dizziness. A blonde girl comes up to me , she looks young around my age. " hey are you ok ? Maybe you should sit down" she says sweetly to me , I nod and sit down next to her on the porch. "My names Beth , what's yours?" She asks I look over to her "Elodie" she smiles before she looks ahead and stands up "is that them?!" She says

I instantly whip my head around and I see my dad struggling to hold Carl as he runs up to us "Dad ! They're getting everything ready in there , go" my dad nods and takes Carl inside I follow. I hear Hershel shout "In here !" As we follow him into a bedroom my dad puts Carl on the bed.

"Is .. Is he alive?" I ask as fresh tears roll down my cheeks at the sight of my little brother. We use a pillow case to put pressure on the wound and Hershel checks for a heartbeat. " I've got a heartbeat, but it's faint" I let out a sigh of relief at least he is alive. "Aaron ,IV" the old man shouts. "What's your names" "Rick .. my names Rick" my dad stutters "I'm Elodie" i say as I grab onto my dads hand for comfort.

"Rick ,Elodie we're gonna do everything we can, okay?" Hershel assured us " you need to give us room. Now" he tell us. My dad wanders out the room but I don't want to leave Carl , I feel someone grab my shoulder and I flinch in shock "Hey come on , Elodie was it? We need space so we can save your brother" he says calmly as he guides me out the room I just let him. I feel him leave and the door shut behind me.

I hear Shane and Otis come in and talk with my dad but I just zone out as I sit on one of the chairs in the hallway. I can't believe this happened and to Carl, we already lost Sophia now Carl might ... No he will be ok , he has to be.
