A World Like This [1]

[17]

Edited 12/30/16

I knew one day it would happen. I'd be taken down by either bullets or teeth. I guess I always wanted it to be quick. The world we live in now, no one is ever safe. The prison it should have been my safe haven but I guess when you think about it wasn't. This is the place where Aiden died, this is the place where I will die. This is the place where the people I care about will die.

I came to a conclusion, everyone dies. Everyone dies and its almost never peaceful anymore. I felt the walkers' teeth go through my skin and at that moment I knew it was over. I'm going back to that little white room again I suppose. I tried, I hope my family knows that. I hope that I can see the ones I love and care about from the prison will one day join me. Hopefully they join me in a really long time. It will seem like a long time to them but maybe up there time goes fast.

I'll get to see Uncle Merle and I can ask him all the questions I want. I want to know about his and my dad's childhood, I want to know it all.

I'll get to see Asher, mom, and Aiden again. They'll be upset that I didn't keep going but eventually they'll accept it. This was going to happen no matter what.

I guess I've always been the kind of person who believes in their destiny. I think this was mine. I became close to the people at the prison and I'm glad I did, I'm glad I got to meet them all. I'm glad that my last few moments were with the boy I love, Carl Grimes.

I could hear Carl and Rick screaming. They probably noticed the walkers on me. Despite what's going on around me I managed to smile.

The last few things I thought of were the amazing people I met here. How in just a few months they made a huge impact on my life. I'd miss them, I'm sure they'd miss me too. But that's okay. I'm thankful for everything that's happened to me in the last two years. I've made it this far, and I'm thankful for that. The truth is this isn't the kind of world for a kid.

People die all the time, I'm just another face. I'm just another dead girl. Strangely I'm okay with that. I love everyone I've met. But it's my time. I felt my body being lifted from the ground. Everything was too blurry to see. I didn't mind though. I'm dead, just another walker. Just another person who was killed from those things and oddly I'm happy. I let a smile form on my pale face, I wasn't happy that it was over, I was happy with everything I got to experience, everything I got to do.

I got to go on some pretty amazing adventures with my brothers. I got the chance to meet my father for the very first time. I met some extraordinary people here in this prison. I got to meet my first and my last love, not many kids are able to say that before they die, but I can.

I thought this would hurt. I thought It would be an excruciating death. It's not. It feels... right. That's all it just feels like everything is right in the world. I didn't feel it. I didn't feel anything. I smiled as the world I once knew turned black. Nothing left not even my thoughts. And I slowly and pitilessly drifted away into the cool darkness where I was stuck in limbo never to return.
