The Love Of A Boy |C.G.|

Chapter 52

|Haileys P.o.v.|

"Okay, ready?" Carol asks. I look at James then back at her.

"Let's do it." I say. We walk with the walkers, which is very uncomfortable, until we see fences. We go up the fences and crotch down. There are people preparing to kill the walkers coming to their gates. There are so many that some walkers already broke through. I also see people who look familiar. Oh my.

"Look." I point to Daryl, Rick, Glenn, and another person, who I couldn't make out, being dragged.

"Hand me my rifle and a firework." Carol orders. I do as she asked hand her them along with a match.

"Put your head down and hold your ears."

James and I didn't question her, we did as we were told. After a minute we heard an explosion then another. We poked our heads up and saw a big fire spreading through out Terminus and some more fences were down, allowing walkers to flood in.

"Nice job." I say.

Carol lifts us up over the fence then climbs over herself. "Take out your guns. We are going to split up and meet back here when we get our group. James you go with your sister." Carol tells us. I nod and we split ways.

"Stay close." I tell James. "Okay sis. I love you."

"I love you too." I respond.

We walk with a pack of walkers so we won't stand out to the people. I see a door and we secretly walk into the building. I look around and James follows behind me.

There are candles lit, and names written all over. What the hell? I'm guessing this is their way to remember who they lost. I hear alot of gunshots, moans, and screams outside.

"Sissy!" I hear James yell. I turn around and see Carls hat which is now James hat on the floor and a woman holding a knife to my brothers neck. I aim my gun at her.

"Let him go!" I scream. "Let him the fuck go!"

My adrenaline is pumping and I'm terrified for him.

"Drop the gun." She says. "Not until you let him go!" I yell about to cry.

"Why are you doing this? I thought this was a sanctuary."

"It was, until people came and robbed us of our innocence. People would do anything to survive, and we realized we had to sacrifice others for us to survive." She says. I look at James and he's crying.

"It's either you are the butcher or the cattle. Now drop your g-"

A gunshot went off and the woman fell to the ground and as she did the knife sliced across my innocent brothers throat.

What...?

No! No no no!

I blink my eyes and look at the person who shot the woman, Carol. Her eyes were big and her jaw hung. I blinked again and looked down at my brother who is bleeding out. He reaches his arm out for me, but I couldn't move. I was stuck. His arm then fell limp and he stopped breathing.

"Hailey!"

"Hailey!"

I blink and look up. Carol is shaking me and I snapped out of it. I look at her and start crying.

"No!" I scream. "James! No..!"

Tears are streaming out of my eyes like a water fall. I push Carol out of the way and make my way to my now dead brother. I fall to my knees and cry.

"I wanted to keep you safe! I failed you! I failed!" I cry. "I am so so sorry!"

"I am such a horrible sister!"
