~The next morning~

{Ohara's POV}

I woke up in the grass this morning. The sun shining in my face and the usual growls of walkers outside the fence. But there was an unusual amount of fence rattling. I got up and looked the direction the noise was coming from and I saw everyone outside with weapons shooting and stabbing walkers and trying to hold up a fence that has begun to collapse. I rush over grabbing a crowbar that was hanging on the fence and begin to stab walkers through the fence. "Why didn't anyone wake me up!?" I yelled continuing to stab walkers. "We didn't want to wake you up-- you needed rest." Dad said while struggling to keep the fence up without getting bit or scratched.

"Just because I need rest doesn't mean I should get it. You guys need all the help you can get." I retort "Everyone get back! The fence is about to collapse." Rick yells and we all run and grab AKs and prepare to shoot. The fence collapses and the walkers rush towards us snarling and growling. "Don't let them get close and shoot anything that moves!" Rick commands and we begin firing at them. After an hour or so we finish shooting all of them and Michonne, Daryl, and I start to pile them up and burn them. About the 30th walker I pick up I start to feel light headed.

I guess Daryl noticed because he came over to me and nudged me in the arm. "Aye you alright?" he asked me and I just shook my head. "Go sit down me and Michonne will take care of the rest." I do as he says and sit down against the wall and I feel a stinging pain on my wrist. I roll up my sleeve and it seems a few of the cuts re-opened when I was lifting the walkers. I quickly roll down my sleeve before anyone noticed.

Thank god I did because as soon as I rolled down my sleeve Dad was walking over to me. "Hey, what're you doing, aren't you supposed to be helping Daryl and Michonne?" he asked me. "Aren't you the one who said I needed rest? so that's what I'm doing." I respond and he sits down beside me. "Can I see you arm?" I look at him with wide eyes. "No! why would you want to anyways it's gross!" "I just wanted to see if you're okay but if you don't want me to see them I won't look" he says while backing up. "sorry dad it's just I'm not the little girl I used to be anymore. I don't need you checking up on me every minute."

"Well I'm sorry if I seemed too worried after what happened and maybe I should just ignore the fact that my own daughter, my baby girl tried to kill herself! I wouldn't need to check up on you if you were just a normal child!" he yells at me and I'm stunned at what he just said "Y-you don't think I'm normal? W-why would you say that? Do you hate me now too!? Well I'm sorry I'm not the perfect child you wanted. Go make a new one with that farm girl." I retort, sadness turning into anger, I get up and walk away angrily from dad.

"Ohara! you know I didn't mean it like that!" I hear him say and he walks after me. he grabs my shoulder and spins me around so in facing him. "I didn't mean it. I'm just upset that you tried killing yourself okay? It's not easy being a parent when you know that your child would rather die than be alive. especially at times like this." he says while hugging me and stroking my hair. "yea sorry for worrying you dad" "I'm sorry for what I said" he lets go of me and looks at me from head to toe. "Wow you really aren't the little girl you used to be. Your like 5' tall now." I chuckle at his amazement. "c'mon lets go help" he says and we both walk over to Michonne and Daryl.

Just as everything seemed perfect... there was an ear piercing scream. Everyone looked in the direction the scream came from and saw Lori. One of the walkers wasn't completely dead and got her from behind. Rick and Carl were horrified and immediately ran to her. Carl stabbed the walker and Rick pulled Lori away from it. The rest of us ran over and cried. "Lori d-don't go. please." Rick cried. "Mom! mom!" Carl cried too. Lori started to drift off and soon enough she was in her eternal sleep. "No no no!" Rick kept repeating while just cried even louder.

~later on that day~

I was up in my tower watching everyone and seeing what they were doing. Michonne and Daryl were still burning walkers, Carol and Hershel were getting water, my dad and Maggie were making food, and Rick and Carl were burying Lori. After watching what happened, it brought flashback of what happened when this all began. A herd of walkers engulfing my mom and brother and turning them into one of them. I get angry every time I think about it. I couldn't have done anything either I was too little, all I could do was sit there and watch. I throw one of my daggers into the wall. The anger building up inside of me.

I was about to throw another dagger when someone knocked on the door. I walk down the stairs and open it and I see Carl standing there hugging himself. "c'mon c'mon" I say while pushing him inside. We go upstairs and sit down. I'm sitting across from him hugging my legs and my head on my knees. "why'd you come here anyways?" I asked him "I don't know. I like being with you. and I wanted to talk about our moms." he says sitting down and leaning against the wall. I sit up "sorry I don't like talking about my mom" I tell him. "I know but it was years ago can't we just talk about it for a little." "f-fine for a little but if I end up punching you it's not my fault"

"What is there to talk about anyways?" I ask him. "like how did you feel, how old were you, did you kill her, was it just her, h-" "okay that's enough questions. I was 6 when it happened and it was my mom and my brother so I killed both of them." he looks at me stunned. "only 6 and you killed both of them? Wow" "when it happened I felt weird because never would I have thought I would have to kill my mom and brother and I felt awful because when they got not I couldn't do anything I only sat there and watched as it happened." "I kind of know how you feel." "yea. can we talk about something else now?" I ask getting up and putting my hand out for Carl to grab and pull him up. "Oh yea sorry. Lets go help Daryl and Michonne."

We run outside to Daryl and Michonne and as we run over I see them whisper set him to each other. "Hey lil lovebirds where've you been?" Daryl jokes "c'mon Daryl lets hurry up and burn these things" Michonne says while smiling. I look at her surprised "you smile too!" we all just laugh. as of right now things seem pretty good but I know that it's never going to be ok.
