Chapter 38: Infected

[ Glenn's POV ]

I watch as Kadyn sleeps peacefully, curled up in our blanket for warmth. I can't believe we're married; that Kadyn is actually my wife. I'm lucky to have met her. I smile, and an idea pops into my brain.

I reach into my duffel bag and pull out the disposable camera that I found at the Big Spot yesterday. I scoot closer to Kadyn, and raise the camera to my face. With a small click, the picture is taken. Kadyn jumps awake, and I laugh softly. "Sorry." Kadyn smiles and hides her face, realizing what I had done.

"Changing of the guard?" She asks teasingly.

"Yeah. I'll bring you breakfast after perimeter check." I lean down and kiss her soft lips. She lets out a soft sigh when I pull away.

The picture prints out, and I take it. I smile, admiring the picture. Kadyn looks at me suspiciously and reaches out, snatching the photograph from my hand.

"Oh, my God. Throw this away." Kadyn groans and flops back down on her back.

"Yeah.. not gonna happen. It's mine." I grin, opening the trap door. Kadyn kisses my hand as I close the trap door behind me.

Kadyn's POV

I stretch my limbs and sit up, looking around. The sunlight shines through the glass of the guard tower. I reach for my duffel bag and change into my day clothes.

As I lace up my boots, I hear a gunshot from inside the prison. My heart jumps in my chest, and I stand up immediately.

"Help!" I hear someone cry. I grab my gun from the corner and fling open the trapdoor.

I burst out of the guard tower, scanning the field. I spot Michonne trapped outside the prison gates by two walkers.

"Michonne!" I yell, running towards her. Michonne falls over a snare and the walkers start to gain on her. Maggie and Carl are frantically opening the gates for her.

  The incident reminds me of the first time Michonne came to the prison.  She was standing outside of the fence with a crate of baby supplies. 

"You okay?" I ask, helping her sit down on the dirt once we're safely inside the courtyard.

  "Yeah, I got it."  Michonne winces.  "You should get to the cell block.  They need you." 

  I glance at the prison, and then back to Maggie, Carl, and Michonne.

  "We can handle this."  Maggie says, giving me a small smile.  I nod my head and turn to the prison.

I run across the courtyard as fast as I can, reaching the prison at the same time as Rick.

"Walkers in D!" Sasha appears, clutching her gun with an anxious expression on her face.

"What about C?" I ask, my mind already jumping to the worst conclusions. Both Glenn and Baylee are in cell block C.

"Clear. We locked the gates to the tombs." Sasha replies.

"Hershel's on guard. It ain't a breach." Rick says.

"We followed the plan." Sasha remarks.

We run into cell block D with weapons raised.

Everything is chaos; people are screaming and trying to escape the few walkers inside. Some people are already dead. I shoot a walker in the head and advance into the cell block.

"Go, get out of here!" I tell a frantic Woodbury woman.

I shoot two more walkers before checking one of the cells.
