Alone Again - TWDG/TWD

Arc 3: Chapter 20

I run into the frozen forrest. It's gotten so much colder. I don't know if Luke is following, I hope he isn't.

After I've ran a good distance from the cabin, I begin to feel weak and my legs get tired.

I stop running and start to walk. The snow fall has gotten heavier and its gotten even colder. I trudge slowly through the snow. I just realized I don't even have a weapon... I don't care anymore.

I sit down in the deep snow and start crying. The tears freeze to my face. I keep to my thoughts, crying about everything. Everything is so fucked. The cold snow and wind beat against me.

I put my head in my knees and close my eyes. I'm alerted by something grabbing my shoulder. I look up, more tears run down my face. It was Luke. He looked at me sadly.

I yank my arm away from him.

"Clem."

I give him a sharp glare.

He sits down next to me.

"Leave me alone." I say.

"Clem," he wraps his arm around me.

If I had a knife I would stab him in the arm. I didn't want to be coddled. I didn't want anything.

"I don't think you're a liability. I'm just trying to keep you safe, I want you to be safe." he says.

I don't respond.

"I can't risk something happening to you. I can't live with that." He says.

"We just need to go. Don't worry about me." I say.

"Clem, I can't not worry about you."

"Luke we have to go, we'll die if we dont." I snap.

"Clem..."

"We have to!" I beg.

He sighs, "fine get Carl, lets get movin'."

We make our way back to the Cabin when we see a trail of blood. I get chills as we slowly follow it.

When we approach the source, my heart sinks. I breathe heavily, my body freezes in place. Its Carl.

He lays in the snow, bleeding out. His organs are spilt out on the ground as a walker feasts on his dead body.

I have no words to describe this feeling. Luke takes his machete and kills the walker. I get one final look at Carl before my eyes roll to the back of my head and I black out.

-

I wake up in Luke's arms, AJ lays on top of me asleep, bundled in several blankets. He carries me through the snowy forrest. Everything is foggy, my head hurts so bad.

I remember Carl. I begin to panic.

"C- Ca- Luke!" I shiver.

He looks down at me sadly.

"C- Carl...?" I say.
