CHAPTER FOUR;
[ BETWEEN THE FENCE ]
[CONSTELLAION || GLENN RHEE]___
Athena had decided to take a nap in the RV while Glenn took watch. She was still tired, especially since her shoulder had popped out of place when she first arrived at the farm. Luckily, Hershel had moved it back into place, but it still hurt like hell. Perks of trying to jump over a fence Glenn had teased.
Speaking of Glenn, she was willing to take over for the guy so he could go talk to Maggie, the Korean boy telling her all about the situation he was currently stuck in. Athena knew she was right all along: Glenn had found out about the walkers by accident and Maggie didn't want him to say anything, explaining where the gifts of fruit and jerky had come from. Athena had laughed when Glenn told her he couldn't lie for shit, and she told him she knew because it was written on the boys face when he did. Of course, Glenn was the only one besides Beth, Lori, Carl, Andrea, and Maggie who actually spoke to her, so she had offered that she take over to go fix things with the brunette. He denied and said he had already tried and instead persuaded Athena take a nap, changing the subject as usual and saying he noticed the dark under eye circles evident on her pale skin. Athena didn't protest and instead did as requested and knocked out on the couch. That was until she heard shouting coming from outside.
She blinked her eyes before getting up and stumbling out the RV just to see the group looking over at the forest. Athena averted her dazed eyes and saw Rick pulling something on a leash.
A walker.
"Oh shit." she mumbled before looking over to see the entire group dashing over to the scene. Athena did the same, her hand immediately going to her waist, resting a hand on the axe she carried with her before taking off.
She watched as Shane seemed to loose it, yelling out a string of profanities as he advanced onto Jimmy, Hershel, Rick, and the two walkers. His face was beat red with rage as he ran with the gun in his hand. "What the hell you doing?" Shane called as he threw open the gate to the barn, Athena barging in right after.
"Back off Shane." Rick warned as the group merged in.
"Why do your people have guns?" Hershel yelled as he pulled the walker away from Shane. "Why-"
"You see?" Shane interrupted, "You see what they're holding onto?" he addressed to the group, completely ignoring Hershel.
"I see who I'm holding onto!" Hershel retorted and Shane shook his head.
"Nah, man, you don't see!"
"We can talk this out." Rick told him, but Shane shook his head and wiped his forehead.
"There's nothing to talk about, Rick!" Shane protested. "These things ain't sick! They're not people, they're not alive! They don't got anything to feel! Cause all they do is kill: these things right here, they're the things that killed Amy, they killed Odis, they're gonna kill all of us if we don't-"
