FAITH WAS AT AN all time low. the group tired and losing any hope that fort benning could be good, that it could be up and running. natalia blamed the cdc, it had given them a false sense of hope. natalia decided she wouldn't get her hopes up, she was sure she'd only be let down again.
it was amiracle that the group had made it out of the cdc alive. now it'd be a miracle if they survived, natalia couldn't remember the last time they'd all had a proper meal. the last time she wasn't helping search old cars and vehicles for gas and supplies.
the group was tired, their strength dropping with each passing day, many finding it difficult to get themselves up. knowing the day would only bring scavenging and avoiding the dead, nothing more then the routine they'd created.
sleep had proved to be more difficult then anything, keeping the grimes girl awake each night. her mind plagued with the nightmares of what her mind had been scared with, with what her mind came up with.
the road seemed never ending, driving to fort benning. after the cdc, it seemed the military base was worth a shot. staying in one place would prove to be unsafe, and it had time and time again.
natalia sat in the backseat, the third row of the vehicle they'd found. lee sitting beside her, opting out of being anywhere near his father, a new bruise resting on his cheek, he'd blamed it on when he fell down the stairs two days prior. though he had spilled the truth to natalia late one night, he didn't keep much from the girl, he never could.
she had wanted to go to her father about it, like she had each time he showed up with a bruise. each time it had become apparent it was getting worse. he had shut that idea down as quick as it had showed up, telling her he'd tell rick about what happened at the cdc. so she stayed quiet, with guilt in her bones.
her head rested against the window, her legs resting in lees lap, and a content expression on her face. chills running up her spine as his fingers gently traced up and down her calf. the caravan had slowed. the sea of abandoned cars, clothes and trash spewed onto the ground. the camper van had come to a complete stop in the middle of the sea of cars. smoke coming from under the hood, rick slowed the car to a stop pulling the keys from the ignition.
lee gently patted the girls calf, motioning to where everyone had already began to climb out. natalia groaned as lee moved the seats in front of them so they were down so the two teens could climb out. the two of them jogging over to where the others stood.
shane stood holding a shot gun keeping watch, the two watching as daryl pulled something out of the trunk of an open car. "we can find a whole bunch of stuff here." daryl told, the others silently agreeing t-dog grabbing a fuel canister. "get more fuel for these cars is a start." t-dog told as he looked around the dead abandoned cars.
