Don't Let History Repeat Itself

Blake

"F*ck!"I watched as by the huge glass wall, an infected launched itself at Kye trying to sink its teeth into his neck.

The weight and force, Of the fight caused the glass to shatter on touch of them. Dashing forward I pushed past the Walkers in my way and reached out for his hand, ignoring the glass falling by my sides and onto my arm. Our fingers brushed briefly, my eyes widening as I missed her hand.
"SHIT!"I swore but suddenly from my left, Kye's hand was grabbed, jerking his fall.
The Infected's mouth went straight into his shoulder, and just as god hated me even more, the blade of my throw knife went straight into it's skull, a millisecond too late.
"BLAKE!"Immediately dashing towards her call, I grabbed her hand in time before she ended up falling off like Kye.
F*ck. Brilliant. Just so f*cking brilliant. We'd literally made a rope of people. I tried to ignore the fact that it felt like we were reenacting that episode of Cyanide & Happiness, and focused on the issue at hand. Especially due to the fact that now Kye was infected. But shit I still thought we could f*cking save him. As people say 'Don't let history repeat itself', so if that sick god out there was giving me a chance to save Claude and Suki again. I wasn't going to let this slip.
"Kye! Just hold on! We've got this! Stay calm!"I shouted down at him.
If he really was like Suki then I knew he would probably start having a rage attack or some shit. And as fabulous as I am, I was right.
"HOW THE F*CK AM I SUPOSE TO STAY CALM?!? WHEN I'M F*CKING INFECTED AND F*CKING HANGING OFF A F*CKING- WHAT IS THIS?? A WINDOW???"He shouted back angrily.
I couldn't even tell what level of infection he was at for he was completely out of sight.
"SHIT!"I cussed again in frustration.
I couldn't let this happen. I just couldn't. I'd already witnessed Suki's death... Well more I had- No! I didn't even want to think about it... But Scarlette said I didn't has the chance to save Claude... But now I do. And I'm not letting this chance go.
"F*ck..."I murmured again trying to work out a way.
I couldn't ask Dean for help for he was covering me while I was leaning out the cil and Echo and Katrissa were too far back in the mob.
"Ok f*ck this. Kye! Climb up! Use Claude like a rope! So grab her hips and pull yourself up!!"I ordered as I risked a peak over the edge.
The clash of Kumi's larger (some how) and 'clean' skin against his now purple and blue veined hand scared me. The worse was when he raised his face, his right eye already blank and filled with veins, but blood falling down the side of his face instead of tears.
"Argh f*ck it!"I heard him shout as he shook his head downwards, tears falling down to the far floor.
He attempted to pull himself up with Kumi's help but failed. So he tried again. And again. And again. And as I knew from Suki, I had a feeling he was going to give up soon, so I ran through another solution. If someone ran down to the second level maybe they could break the glass and help him in!
"K-Kumi?"He called out quietly, just loud enough for me to hear lightly.
"Hm?"She answered, her tone light.
"I don't usually give up... Well I do when it comes to maths... Cause I love-hate it! But, I don't want to hurt you guys-"He stared up at Kumi his eyes almost completely infected, but still glazed over with tears.
"NO! SUKI DON'T YOU DARE F*CKING LET GO!! I-I'M NOT LETING YOU GO THIS TIME!! Please! God! Please just-! Just don't let go!!"My strong shouts had pathetically changed to pleading sobs.
"I forgot your name..."He laughed tearfully his smile almost identical to Suki's, a smile I loved to see.
"But you're not any better! My name's Kye."He stated before closing his eyes in a smile, his hand slipping from Kumi's hand. And despite his words, I screamed Her name, as Kumi shouted his name.
"I-I'm sorry!"I sobbed.
If this was god's punishment I wish it would just already end. If watching my friend die once wasn't enough than you would think the second time would be the end of it. But by now I was sick of it. I just didn't want it. I didn't want god's tormenting ways! What did I ever do? WHAT DID I EVER DO TO F*CKING DESERVE THIS?!?
"B-Blake? I need-d you to l-let g-go of m-my ha-hand." My eyes immediately shot down to Kumi's struggling look, the sorrow in her eyes and the tears seemed to never end.
"N-No!"I sobbed shaking my head furiously, at this point I was the only one holding on.
If I had lost one, I wouldn't lose another... Especially Claude. I didn't even get to say good bye the first time. Not even a thank you for being my best friend for so many years.
"I-I l-l-let g-go-o of-f h-his han-nd!"she shouted as my teary eyes widened in shock.
"I-I didn't want-t him t-to suffer! It was w-what he w-wanted! S-so p-p-please! J-just let me g-go!"I tried not to give into his pleads, but not to stop my heavy crying.
"N-No! He would want you to live! To live for the both of you! And I'm not going to f*cking let you die! N-Not a-agai-in! I-I'm not g-goin-ng through th-that suf-f-ffering a-again!"For a moment Kumi's eyes widened, her tears falling with the wind, before her look softened.
Her hand started gripping mine again. Something sparked inside of me as I quickly tried to stop the tears.
"Ok. Pass me your other hand."I ordered as I let go of the window cil with my left and had both arms over the edge.
shit this was a bad idea! I had now grip on the edge now, any mistake and I would be going off the edge with her. And what sucked was that she was taller than me (just like Claude), probably the same weight considering her skinny figure. The only thing keep me there was well... My legs I guess? Shit I needed someone to hold me down or something... I I quickly glanced over my shoulder to see if anyone was around. Only Dean, who was holding back the infected, and Lillian who I only just met, and totally don't trust, considering she just looks like extreme parenting gone wrong, like it was obvious that her child wasn't infected otherwise he's rotting differently and we'd be able to tell plus Lillian would probably be infected by now. So either she killed her son or her husband did. (I know her name because I heard Katrissa and Echo call her) Anyway, Katrissa and Echo were on the otter side of the fight so there was no way they could reach me still. Finally on like the 69th go Kumi was able to reach my hand, but as soon as I felt the tug of her weight, I quickly let go of her hand, only holding on to one. Before she could say anything I explained.
"I need something to grip onto, otherwise I'll fall off with you..."more ideas rushed through my head, when finally one stayed longer than the rest.
If acrobats can do this, so can I! was the lie I told my self but I had no choice, better to die trying than not to try at all, right?
"Ok you need to use as much arm muscle as you can, I'm going to try pulling you high enough so at least you hands are touching the edge, then your going to bring your knees to your chest and I'm going to you bring my left arm underneath your thighs and haul your ass up enough so AT LEAST you elbows or arms are up here."I ran through what was going to happen, before repeating myself once again, to make sure she got everything into her head.
"Ok. On three. One, two, three!"I grunted the last number as I used all my arm muscles as I pulled her up with one arm, the other by my side trying to keep me up.
It went almost as planned, as her fingers hooked onto the edge, she just didn't have enough grip, she was trying to hold onto the broken glass connected to the window cil while trying not to cut herself, which was close to the impossible. So I continued hold her up, as she moved onto the next step, pulling herself into a ball. She let out a loud grunt as she squeezed her eyes shut. Shit! There was no way we were both going to survive this! I had to let go of her or else we'd both end up off the edge! Wait no! Back to the first plan! Trying to stable her onto one arm I hooked the other under her thighs, in an attempt to haul her up. But I didn't have any force or momentum. I let a heavy sigh escape my lips, somewhat missed with a grunt, trying to keep her up. here goes nothing With that I leaned as far as I could, placing a hand on her backside, pushing her up, and throwing my self, well more like pushing myself off her and off the edge. As I started to fall I tried to tame my accelerating heart beat, turning I looked back up at the broken window, Kumi was still here, her hips up on the floor now and she was stable. I saw a flash of Dean's flame hair as he screamed my name. But it was too late now. I was going to die. Rolling my eyes to my sides briefly I watched my hair wave, and my tears fall at a separate rate. I at least hoped that the end of my suffering would be quick and painless. Even though we were quite high up I knew the fall wouldn't last long, even though it felt like forever. So as if I could sense it, I spoke my final words.
"I'm sorry." I apologized.
To all those I could've save and to all those I killed. But it was too late now, wasn't it? I was going to die. Awh Well. I breathed a sigh, allowing my last tear to float before I felt a sharp pain spread throughout my body and my thoughts being silenced.

A/N Poor Dean... He's going to have to deal with a lot of dying people in a row. Ehheheheh easy killng...
