The Broken But Strong

Failure Might Be An Option

(Violet's Pov)

I go over to Clem and I place my hand to her head gently and she wakes up slowly and then she coughs a bit and I place my hand to her side as she has a coughing fit. Ruby then comes over and she gives Clem something and she takes it. I felt so tired and I rubbed the bridge of my nose a bit. I looked over to Ruby as she looked to Clementine a bit and then she looked to me. I then get up and walk out the room as does Ruby and I look over to her.

"Louis filled me in." She tells me and I nod at this.

"Yeah, I assumed he did."

"You think we can take them?" She asked and I think.

"Right now? I don't know, right now I'm just worried about Clementine." I tell her.

"Right... I get it, so Louis said he knocked a woman out?" She asked and I nod.

"Yeah she was with that group, I think they were Whisperers, they were walking with walkers and talking quietly so they have to be the Whisperers we were told about." I tell her and she nods.

"Clementine is still sick so we have to make sure that we just keep her healthy." She says and I nod.

"How are you doing?" I asked her.

"Fine, just wanting to make sure everyone is ok." She says and I nod at this.

"Stressful hu?" I asked and she sighs a bit.

"Yeah, but it's a good thing I know some things." She tells me and I nod a bit. I rubbed the back of my head as I looked to the music door. We go in and Louis is at the piano and I look over to the others for a bit.

"Alright so we can set some traps here and here." Marlon says and I go over to him.

"We have a plan in case that group comes by, I don't think they will come but it would be best to stay on guard." He explained and I nod and looked to the others. They all agreed and I look over to the doors and I feel a hand on my shoulder. I look to see Ruby and she nods to me.

"You know you can stay with her." She tells me quietly.

"I know... I will I just want to help." I then looked over to the others and I rubbed the back of my neck and I look over to the others.

"How about this, you can go back when Omar finishes the soup for Clem, you can help out till then." She suggests and I nod at this. I helped anyway I could and it was time for lunch when I grabbed a bowl for Clem and head to the room. Ruby comes with me of course and We go in the room. I head over to Clem and she was still sleeping so I set the bowl to the side and Ruby checks her head. She has a bit of a fever from what Ruby said and I nod and look over to Clem.

"I'm going to set some cold water for her head." Ruby tells me and I nod at this as she leaves the room. I look over to Clem as she slept some more and I place my hand to her head and pulled back a bit. She rolled over in her sleep and I look out the window a bit. the door opens and I look to see AJ as he comes in and he takes a seat next to the bed and he looked to me.

"Ruby is getting her something cold for her head." I tell him and he nods and looks back to Clem.

"I've never seen her this sick." He tells me and I look back to her.

"Really?" I asked. I don't think you could go so long without getting this sick at least, or I mean in this type of environment at this point.

"Yeah, the worst she had was a cough, not a fever like this." He tells me and I looked to the window and look at the snow a bit. Ruby comes back in afer a while and she has a bucket with her. I grabbed it from her and set it to the side gently so it wouldn't spill. There was snow but in it to keep it cold and She hands me a rag as well. I dip it into the water and place the cold rag to Clementine's head a bit and she shifts a bit in her sleep. Ruby checks on her again and then heads out to the music room and I look back to AJ.
