The Walking Dead The Story Of Two

Part 17

Mike: Jesus. He coulda killed you. The fuck is wrong with him?

Joel: I don't like how he's getting cozy with him.

Y/N: I don't like it either.

Jane: You're up.

Looking over Jane was looking at Clem who was sitting up after falling asleep.

Jane: Kenny's out back, trying to get some stupid truck started.

Clem stood up and sat next to Jane who had a can opened.

Jane: Here. You should eat something.

Mike: You okay?

I looked back at Mike as he was still by Arvo.

Arvo: Thank you.

Standing up I noticed Mia wasn't here, so I walked outside to see her helping Kenny with the truck.

Kenny: My daddy always had a half dozen wrecks he was fixing up. He was a mean son of a bitch. But he taught me respect. Girl like Jane could learn a thing of two about that.

Y/N: Maybe she needs a bit of time to get used to the group.

I made my presence known as Mia waved at me from the driver seat.

Kenny: Hey, Y/N. Maybe you're right. Hell, I didn't know what to make of Lee at first. Course, he helped me and mine more times than I can remember.

Clem: Jane helped us back on the road.

Behind me Clem came out as well.

Kenny: Alright, Mia give it a turn.

I heard the keys jingle a bit, but nothing happened.

Kenny: We're so close, kids. With a little bit of luck I can get this thing running and then we can get out on the road and really make some distance. Wellington's gotta be out there. Those rumours can't all be bunk. I mean, hell, there's gotta be something out there other than snow and goddamn Euro trash.

Mia: Yeah, Wellington.

Clem: Sounds good to me.

Y/N: Better than going back. Who know what condition the damn store is in.

Kenny: We're gonna make it, kids, I know it. Alright, turn it again.

I hear the keys jingle again but nothing from the truck.

Kenny: Did you turn it?

Mia: Yeah.

Kenny: God DAMN IT.

Kenny kicked the truck

Clem: Kenny, are you okay?

Kenny: We gotta keep moving if we're gonna keep AJ alive. We're running out of time. I gotta get this thing to start. Gonna try warming up the battery. You three go on inside. I don't like leaving him with that girl.

As I walked inside Mia and Clem sat with Bonnie for a bit as I heard AJ in the room beside me, and when I went to check Jane was there looking outside towards the truck.

Jane: Hey.

Y/N: Evening, why are you both in this room?

Jane: Mike and Arvo wouldn't shut up, so I moved him in here.

We heard Kenny outside bitching about the truck.

Jane: I've seen that look before.

Y/N: So have I. Plenty of times.

Jane: Then you know what's about to happen. I know Kenny's a nice guy, Y/N. I bet Carver was a nice guy too, once. Probably had a nice job, and a nice pretty wife. Then all this happened. And one day, he caved some kid's face in and realized he could sleep at night.
