Shoot Or Run

|Burned down| Chapter twenty one|

I started to help clear up the camp to move into the house. I wipped the ever falling tears from my eyes and looked to the gun that was in my tent. I picked it up and hugged it to my chest It was something she wanted me to do. I picked up Ginger's stuff and put it in the truck. I was keeping it as reminders of her. She was my mom. I looked down to a small box that had my name on it. I picked it up and opened it seeing a card that read 'Happy birth day' I felt more tears fall from my eyes "She kept track." I whispered and read the card before looking under the tissue paper seeing a locket that was also a. I smiled slightly and put it on before walking out of the room and to the truck putting my stuff in
the truck and walked to the house with everyone
I sat on the porch and looked deeper into the box and saw a . I smiled slightly seeing a note in it
"Got you a hat so you didn't have to keep wearing Carl's all the time." I smiled slightly and put it on as I did with the Necklace
I walked into the house and sat down on the couch before seeing T-Dog come in with a blue tub
I looked down and played with the small box in my hands
I sighed and walked to the barn and climbed the ladder seeing Carl sitting down. I sighed and sat down next to him "It's not your fault" I whispered looking at him
He rolled his eyes and got the bunculars looking over the farm
I saw Rick and heard him say "Lori said you two would be here."
I nodded slightly and heard Carl "I'm looking over the farm. tiered of helping around the house."
Rick looked at me and sighed "I know you two don't want guns anymore. but you need them" He said and held out the guns to us "What happened to Dale and Ginger had nothing to do with you guys"
They died dad" Carl said "Yeah feels like there's a lot of that going around"
"That's why I need you two. No more Kid stuff" Rick said wrapping his arm around our shoulders
"I wish you could have the child hood I had but that's not going to happen." He said
"People are gonna die. I'm gonna die. Mom. There's no way you can ever be ready for it." He added
He kept adding the his words
He handed us the guns including the gun that was Ginger's
After a while T-Dog came running and shouting that Randal got loose. "What?" I asked confused
We ran the the place he was held up in and looked around for any clues until Shane came running from the woods "Rick!" He shouted over and over again "He's armed! He's got my gun!"
Rick gave us orders to get in the house I shook my head and ran into the house while Carl held my hand tightly
I ran upstairs and looked out the window with Carl I looked out to the woods holding his hand while we looked he brought me closer and held my shoulders tightly
"We need to get out there." He said to me
I nodded slightly and opened the window. "Come on" I whispered dragging him onto the roof and got ready to jump down the roof "Ready?" He asked me I nodded and jumped rolling in the process. he followed me and rolled down.
We ran down the field looking over the wire fence
I ran to it and jumped over helping him
I heard a gun shot so I ran quickly to the noise
Rick followed close after and grabbed my hand I saw Rick standing over Shane
I looked at him and held up my gun seeing Shane stand up
Not as a human. as a dead man
I pulled the trigger
We walked back to the farm and tried talking
"How did Shane die?" I asked Rick turning to him but heard walkers behind us. hundreds of walkers.
I turned seeing a horde. we ran to the farm with Rick whispering go.
"We need to get the house." I whispered when we stopped at a tree
"No we nee to get to the barn." He said we nodded and starting running to the Barn as fast as we could
I held my gun and ran in with them We blocked the door and locked it with medal between the handles
we ran and got gasoline from a side room of the barn And poured it on the ground of the barn
I ran up the ladder with Carl hot on my trails . He held the lighter as we climbed and stopped at the top of the ladder
Rick opened the door letting Walkers in and walked backwards for a while until he got to the ladder and climbed it telling Carl to drop the lighter
Carl did as told lighting the the lighter and dropping it down setting the walkers on fire
I took my gun out and loaded it before we ran out
I heard gun shots and looked seeing the group
I shot some walkers and looked at Rick "What do we do!" I yelled at Rick before the RV came driving towrds us
The Rv stopped just below us. we hopped on as it did trying to get away from the Burning barn
Rick got down from the Rv and shot Walkers so it could a bit better when we got down
I jumped down and rolled shooting a walker in front of me
We ran into the woods as fast as we could I looked back seeing Carl right behind me
I shook my head and ran back on to the farm running to the house and saw Patrica get bit.
