We Have A Reason For Our Responses

Bekky's pov#

''What did I miss?'' Katelyn says bursting through the door out of breath. Why was she here? What the hell is going on?

''I told him'' I say throwing my hands up in the air in aggravation. I didn't bother glancing back at Chandler before walking over towards Katelyn who was standing in the door way.

''Be prepared for a fight'' Was all I said as I step past her and out onto the porch, down the stairs and continuing down the path.

Katelyn's pov#

I look down to the ground in utter shock. A fight? We were ready but it's so soon, I mean we have only got Alexandria back up and running for 3 months now, well they did we helped as soon as we got back here.

''You think it will come down to that?'' I ask, still standing in the door way.

''No, Dad will never let it get that far'' Chandler says positively, walking into the living room with Judith still in his arms, now sleeping peacefully. She was so beautiful.

''What if it is already too far?''.

''Your being over dramatic'' He says getting annoyed.

''Am I?'' I ask, leaving the question hanging in the air as I shut the door on my way out.

''Bekky!'' I call out. She stops and turns around with her hands down her sides, looking completely helpless, we both feel the same way.

''I can't do it again Kate'' she says, her voice breaking slightly.

''I can't go through losing the people I love again, I can't watch them being torn into pieces in front of me, not when I will just stand there, not being able to do anything but scream'' She says honestly. I stop and stare as she continues.

''I think we made a mistake coming back'' She says heart broken. I shake my head quickly and walk up to her, wrapping my arms around her in a tight yet comforting hug.

''We didn't make a mistake, we are here for a reason, we are here to help protect everyone and this community, we have a reason'' I say. She loosens her arms around me and I do the same, pulling away. She wiped a tear away that slipped and softly smiled.

''You really think that's the reason for our response?'' she asks.

''Yes, I do, Sam and Blake would think so too, they would want us to stand up and fight if we must'' I reassure her, wrapping my arm around her shoulder as we begin walking back home.

#Next Day#

*BANG*

*BANG*

*BANG*

What the fuck was going on?I jump out of bed and quickly put on a pair of shoes, flying down the stairs and towards the front door. It was well and truly past midday by now but it was my day off from work so I slept in. I swing open the door and a lot of people were racing around in a mad panic. I join and try to push through the crowd that has gathered, what was going on?

''Andrew?'' I ask as I make my way over towards him in worry.

''It's not here but close, a bunch of us are going out to investigate, everyone stays and no else is to leave okay?'' He says to me hurriedly, quickly running off again to scramble Morgan and Chandler. They were out of sight and leaving before I could even configure words to leave my mouth. I ran. I was running back to Andrew's and Chandler's, well I guess also Danai's as well, she is just working a lot so she is hardly there. I burst through the front door for the second time in two days.
