We have been driving for nearly 3 hours, I Have been asleep for most of the ride. I lay with my head on my Daryl's  shoulder as we come to a stop outside this massive building.

I assume this is the CDC we were approaching, Daryl gets out the car and picks me up out of my seat as I'm half asleep "ugh it smells funny" I say with a disgusted face, "shhh just close your eyes grace" Daryl pushes my head down.

"Daryl cover the back!" Rick wispers, he puts me down as Rick bangs on the doors "hello? Hello?"

I hide behind my dad as everyone was talking over each other, then the door opened revealing a bright white light, "hello? Anybody infected?" The weird looking doctor asks.

"One of our groups was....he didn't make it" Rick implies, "why are you here? What do you want?" The doctor proceeds. I just look at the doctor 'why the all the questions' I wisper. "A chance" Rick reply's.

"Thats asking an awful lot these days" the doctor Carries on, "you will need to all submit blood tests, that's the price of admission" , "we can do that" Rick says. "If you got stuff bring it now, when these doors shut they won't open again!" The doctor said firmly

It has been and hour since we've been here I am sharing a room with Daryl as my dad makes it apparent he don't want me no more. We are sat around a table eating dinner, the room is full of laughter "you know in Italy children have a little bit of wine with dinner. And in France" Dale says, "well when Carl is in Italy or France, he can have some then" Lori replied. "Oh come on what's it gonna hurt?" Lori just looks between Dale and Rick for a few seconds then gives up and lets him have a sip.

"There you are lad" Dale says while handing Carl a small glass of wine, he takes a sip and makes the most disgusted face I've ever seen and I can't help but giggle "yuck that's nasty" he continues, Lori pats his back "that's my boy".

I look at my dad "can I have some?" He just looks at me and ignores me infront of everyone, I felt completely alone like I don't have my dad no more....i then turn to Daryl for comfort "yes Ava you can have a sip" Daryl says while dirty looking my dad "here girl" Dale hands me a cup and I have a sip.

"It don't taste that bad" everyone just laughs, after some time and everyone goes to there rooms to go to sleep, Daryl get my jarmas out and puts me in the shower I may be 8 but I cannot shower myself I haven't learnt yet, I feel very stupid that my dad never taught me I guess he didn't care enough to.

It is the next morning and we all sat down for breakfast, I set next to Daryl as t-dog put eggs infront of me and I just stare at them......I hate eggs. "Come on eat up" Daryl says ruffling my hair "I don't like eggs" I reply, he just looks at me.

Dad walks in with scratches on his neck "the hell happened to your neck? Rick questioned "I must of done it in my sleep" dad reply's.
I can't help but notice dad keeps looking at aunty Lori.....it's weird.

We had come in the massive room where there was a big screen where Jenner was showing how a walkers body works. "That click it's counting down? What happens at zero?" Dale questions "the base meant runs out of fuel, and the air sets on fire" Jenner reply's. My heart sinks but also relief.

"Everyone get your bags now we are leaving!" Rick yells, as we was running towards the door it shuts on us "did he just lock us in?" Glenn says, "you son of a bitch" dad yells, I sit next to Carol and cover my face.

"It's an end to all of sorrow, grief, regret" Jenner continues, it goes some time after everyone was yelling and arguing and Jenner finally opens the door everyone goes to leave but I decide not to move.

"Ava let's go!" Daryl yells.

"I'm not going, I'm staying here " I reply.
