"Madison, slow the hell down. We don't know if it was someone from camp." Blake yelled behind me as I was running towards where I heard screaming coming from. I rolled my eyes and yelled back "But it fucking could be,Blake."

Of course he wouldn't care. Stupid fucking Blake Dixon. "Madi, he's probably righ-" Glenn was stating as we got closer to the screaming. "HELP ME" I heard a man yell. "Holy shit, your right." I heard Blake scoff as we got closer to the screams.

As we got closer to the screams, I saw smoke coming from a little grassy part in the woods, "Look" I whispered to Blake pointing out the smoke, turning to face him. His eyes widened and he calmly said "Get behind me. Now." "What. Wh-" Before I could even finish, Glenn and Blake were both yanking me behind them. They moved shoulder to shoulder, fully covering me. Not letting me by, not even letting me see what or who they were looking at.

"What do you want?" Glenn yelled into the distance, A man responded "I need a doctor, or medicine!" Holy Shit. There were other survivors. "We don't have anything. We can't help you." Blake stated, grabbing my waist and pulling me closer to his body. Glenn noticed and his face immediately changed. The man was clearly hurt by his voice "P-please, I don't need much. I'm not bitten I swear!" His southern accent came through strong, but it wasn't Georgian.

Struggling to get out of Blake grasp, I moved my head to the side and asked "Where are you from? You ain't from around here, damn not from Georgia." Blake looked angry looking down at me before the man answered, "Montgomery Ma'am. I'm from Montgomery, Alabama." "Just give us a minute sir." I said grabbing the boys, and pulling them behind a tree.

"Mads, you know we can't help him. We need to find our way back to camp. Now." Blake said turning to see if the man was still there, "He's hurt. We need to help him Dixon." I stated. Blake stepped closer, lowering his voice, "We can't trust him. He could be lying Madison" I scoffed, "We can't just not trust people Blake."

"Um guys." Glenn said softly, "Where'd he go?" "Shit." Blake said looking around, "Look what happened Madison." "How is this my fault!" I said in my regular voice before Glenn covered my mouth, "We can't risk it. Let's go." He said slowly going away from the camp. Blake looked at me angrily and followed Glenn. I gave them a few seconds, but I felt someone cover my nose and mouth. My attempts to fight him were unsuccessful, and then everything went black.
