When I arrived at the fishing shack, I saw Brody having what I could only assume was a panic attack. Clem looked like she was trying to help. As I walked over, Brody lashed out at Clem before running back towards the school. Aasim with an annoyed shake of his head also started walking towards the school with rabbits in hand.
"Yo... what just happened?" I asked Clem when I was finally within hearing distance.
"We were robbed..." Violet answered me bluntly. Clem was too busy studying the map Marlon gave her.
"Shit really?" I ask, concerned.
"No other reasonable explanation for these strange bible cigarettes we found at the crime scene." Louis piped in with a strange British accent. He started examining the cigarette as if he were an old school detective from a movie. Sherlock Holmes, I think that was his name.
"The train station is the only place that I can think of that would have food... It's not too far from here." Clem stated.
"That's pretty far outside the safe zone..." Violet chimed in.
"It had food when we went through. It's worth the look..." I added in.
"You're sure there was food?" Violet pushed on.
"No, it was all a figment of my imagination. Merely a hallucination." I said, sarcastically before giving her a knowing look. "Of course, I'm sure. I wouldn't suggest going back to that death trap if I wasn't." Violet raised her hands to show she meant no harm.
"Some of it might have been destroyed in the explosion... but there has to be something left! There was so much food there!" Clem said.
"Alright fine... lead the way."
After a long walk, we eventually made it to the now overrun train station.
Clem pointed to the train station and said, "There. That's where all the food is. Lot more walkers than last time though..."
"We're so gonna die." Louis said dramatically. I gave him a slight slap on the back of the head for that one.
"It's either die here or die from hunger. Take your pick. Clem and (Y/N), you should scope things out... you know the place better than we do." Violet said.
"Let me get a closer look. Can't be too careful." Clem volunteered. Clem climbed up and scoped out the area. Every now and then she would say something to Violet. She finally returns to the group.
"You look like you've got an idea." Louis said nervously.
"The noise from that bell could draw a lot of walkers. If one of us climbs up there and starts ringing it..."
"Louis. I vote, Louis." Violet piped up.
"Uh... hold on... I'd like to make an alternate suggestion." Louis said.
"Come on, Lou. You're loud, dramatic, a little annoying... You're basically a walking distraction." Violet coaxed him.
"I think she pretty much summed it up." I added.
"Okay, Prince Charming. Let's see those talents in action." Clem said while pushing him forward a little.
"How could I say no to a face like that?" Louis flirted. Really Louis? You flirt with my sister in front of me? Gross... Smooth. But still gross.
"I'll go with you three. Give you some cover." Violet reassured.
"Fine. I'll do it. But if I die, I'm making sure walker Louis eats both of you first. I'll distract them until I see you guys reach safe cover. Then I'll try to redirect the smelly patrol to give you guys a chance to spring inside the building." Louis gave in.
"When we get into position, I'll signal you. Then you can do your thing." Clem instructed.
"Good luck." Louis said before grabbing the bell and climbing the train car. He started banging the car, ringing the bell, and shouting to distract walkers.
Clem and I went first, killing a few walkers, before AJ and Vi followed us. Clem gave Louis the signal. He climbs down and Clem pops back down. It felt like eternity before Louis started ringing the bell again.
We started running towards the station. Clem gets grabbed by a walker on the floor and she quickly stabs it. Clem, AJ, and I enter the room. Clem finds a few duffel bags and grabs them, opening them up wide.
"We'll use these duffel bags. AJ, (Y/N) do you think you two can go under there and try to find food?" Clem asks us.
AJ and I nodded. I went in first and started searching. The ground was covered in glass shards and blown-up food. I cut my hands on the glass and told AJ to be careful. I found some food and AJ did as well. We both pop up and place the food down. Clem asks AJ if there was more while I went back down to search for some more. We gathered more food until, while giving Clem more food, a man walks in. With a gun in hand, he points it at the both of us. We put our hands up. I exited the secret crawl space and Clem stood up with me.
"Don't yell. Don't try anything. I won't hurt you. If I don't have to." The stranger said.
I spoke up first. "Who are you?"
"The name's Abel. And I'm hungry as hell." "Abel" answered.
I spaced out as I thought of a way to get us out of this situation.
AJ popped his head up and pointed his gun at Abel when he tried to grab a jar of food.
"Well, hey there, squirt. Playing hide and seek are we? It's impolite to point your gun at someone." Abel said, a little irritated.
My brain went into overdrive while I thought of what I could do.
"AJ, CLEM GET DOWN!" I said in a sudden rush of adrenaline. I rammed Abel into the window, shattering it. Walkers hearing the noise grabbed Abel and pulled him outside.
"FUCK! FUCK! YOU PIECE OF SHIT!"
"Holy shit..." I said in disbelief.
Violet ran into the room, "What the fuck?!"
"Just take a bag and fill it up. (Y/N), get back under there and help AJ." Clem instructed.
We grabbed the last jars of food and ran.
"RUN NOW!" Clem called up to Louis.
We started running towards the school.
"What happened in there?" Louis asked.
"JUST MOVE!" Violet told him.
"I'll tell you on the way." Clem said.
