The Dixons And Me - The Walking Dead FanFiction

Chapter Thirteen

The journey to the CDC was a long one. The RV broke down. So did Sam. As the RV stopped and everyone got out of their veichles, Sam stayed in the car and began to sob.

"Ye alrigh'?" Daryl asked as he climbed back in.

"What do you think?" She snapped at him.

Daryl just stared at her. Not knowing what to do. He watched as the tears fell from her eyes. As she bit her lip as if it would stop the tears.

"When we got ta the roof, Merle was gone. All tha' was left of 'im was his hand he cut off." Daryl told her.

She wiped her eyes quickly and a small smile appeared on her face.

"So he could still be alive?" She asked hopeful.

"Could be." Daryl shrugs.

Sam looked over to the RV, and saw Ellie biting her lip and looking at Daryl. She noticed Sam looking and quickly looked away.

Sam cocked her head to the side and looked at Daryl, who hadn't noticed Ellie staring.

"Wha?" He asked confused.

"Nothing." Sam said quickly.

"Jim wants to be left here. He's completely out of it." Lori announced. Rick slowly nodded his head and him and Shane brought Jim outside from the RV and rested him against a tree.

As everyone said their goodbyes, Daryl and Ellie were the only ones who didn't go up to him. Daryl nodded his head at Jim as Sam looked away.

"Sam." Jim managed to croak out loud enough for her to hear.

Sam slowly walked over and Jim smiled.

"You...You're a good kid.."

Sam nodded her head slowly waiting for him to continue.

"I know...I know you...Loved Amy...We all could see that...Don't worry about Andrea...She will come round...And you will find...Find someone to love you...Like...You love them...I promise." He said as his voice got weaker and weaker.

"Thank you Jim. Go be with your family." Sam smiled.

"Daddy's coming home." He smiled before closing his eyes.

Sam walked back to Daryl who wrapped her in a big hug.

"What he say?" He asked.

"Nothing." She mumbled.

The RV was soon fixed and they continued their journey to the CDC.

As they reached the CDC, walkers who used to be soilders layed on the ground, army tanks and vans scattered around.

They slowly came to a stop and gathered their things and slowly made their way through the walker graveyard.

"I think I'm going to be sick." Carol gagged.

Rick led the way followed by Lori and Carl, Shane, Carol and Sophia, Jacqui and T-Dog, Andrea and Dale with Daryl, Sam and Ellie at the back.

Rick reached the door first and began to hit the door hard.

Walkers growls filled the air and everyone began to panic.

"C'mon man we gotta go." Shane said trying to pull Rick away.

"No...No there has to be someone here." Rick growled.

Daryl began to shoot arrows at the walkers and Andrea and Ellie began to fire bullets.

"RICK WE GOTTA GO MAN. IT'S OVER." Shane yelled as he pulled him back.

Rick struggled against Shane, but soon stopped and he looked at the security camera.

"It..It moved. The camera moved." Rick told Shane as he began to struggle again.

"It's probably sensored. Let's go." Shane ordered.

"MOM!" Carl cried.

"RICK!" Lori shouted.

The walkers grew closer.

The growls grew louder.

The smell grew stronger.

"PLEASE LET US IN. YOU'RE KILLING US! WE HAVE CHILDREN. YOU'RE KILLING US." Rick yelled at the camera.

Shane pulled Rick back roughly, but soon stopped as the doors to the CDC opened and a bright light shined in front of them.

They ran inside and were greeted by warmth.

"Anyone bit?" A man asked, as he appeared from a corner holding a shot gun.

"One of the men that was with us, he was...He didn't make it." Rick told the mysterious man sadly.

"What do you want?" He asked.

"A chance." Rick told him.

The man lowered his gun and nodded his head.

"My name's Edwin Jenner. You all take a blood test, that's the price of admission. Once I close these doors, they stay closed." Jenner said quickly.

Rick, Daryl, Shane and T-Dog quickly made their way outside and gathered their belongings. Once they came back, the doors closed.

Sam and Daryl exchanged glances.

They didn't trust this place.
