Is This Real?

Safe Haven?

Emma's POV

We walk for about fifteen minutes but are soon surrounded by freaking walkers. Honestly, I thought it'd be safer with these people.

At first everyone, even me, seems surprised. I am the first to recover though.

I look around for a few seconds but I soon lunge towards the nearest walker inserting my blade on the top o his head. I take my blade out and spin around putting my knife straight into the area between the walkers eyebrows.

I hear shooting and bullets whizzing around. Ugh, newbs.

I take a better grip on my knife and take down four more walkers. Die you little undead freak!

Soon the area is cleared and I wipe off my forehead with my fore arm.

When I turn around I see everyone looking at me in disbelief. I shrug and gesture for them to get moving.

Carl shoots me a glare and I roll my eyes. He is such a piece of work!

"Alright we should go... right?" the Korean proposes.

The sheriff nods again and we all walk except Daryl who stays behind to collect some of his arrows.

I hear Carl and the sheriff talking quietly in the front.

"I don't trust her. She put a knife to my throat! She may be a danger dad!" Carl whispered angrily to the sheriff who appears to be his father.

The sheriff shakes his head. "She wouldn't have lasted long and you saw her back there, we need her. We did sneak into her house to so she had the right to do that".

Carl sighs and looks away. "I guess but if she makes a wrong move we're taking action".

His father nods. "That seems fair enough. Anything else that you would like to address?"

Carl thinks for a little bit. "I want her to sleep in my cell so I can keep watch".

The sheriff shakes his head again and ruffles Carl's hair. "You really are a good leader figure."

Carl fixes his hair but keeps moving.

We keep moving and soon we are in the courtyard of the prison.

A man with one leg and crutches makes his way to us. "who is this?" he questions the sheriff.

"A girl who we found on the way." He tells the elderly man.

I roll my eyes. They broke into my house. Im pretty sure you don't have to sugar coat it.

"Where's Mag?" questions the Korean looking worried.

"Shes just in your cell" he say pointing his head towards the building.

The Korean nods and heads in leaving me with the elder man, Carl, Daryl, and the sheriff. Oops, looks like Daryl already disappeared so its only the elder man, the sheriff, and Carl.

"Would you want to go to your cell?" the sheriff asks as he turns to me. I nod and adjust the strap on my bag.

He leads my into the building and i can feel Carl's eyes hot on my back.

We walk into a bustling room with cells pretty much everywhere.

"Here you go" he says showing me to the cell that is the second to last.

I suck in a breath. "Should I take the bottom or top bunk?" I ask.

He seems shocked that I talked at first. But still he said "Umm. Top bunk I think"

I nod and climb up onto the bed and lay down.

When he leaves the entrance to the cell I curl up into a small ball and hide under the covers.

I'm so scared. I try to make people think I'm mature and i can handle everything but I cant. Im only 13 in this hell.

I feel a tear slowly slide down my cheek. I need to be at better place if I'm gonna cry.

I poke my head out of the cell and see a small stair case. I wipe my eyes and tears and start up the stair. When I get up there i smack right into a woman with very short blonde hair.

"Sweetie are you crying?" she asks in a caring voice.

I look up to her and let the tears fall completely. I crumble into her and she smooths my hair while I cry into her shoulder.

"Honey whats your name?' she questions me.

"Emma" I say between tears.

She nods. "Thats a very pretty name"

I shrug wiping my eyes. " I guess so.. whats your name?"

"Carol" she says with a tight smile.

I nod. "Thank you Carol" i say as I stand up.

"Are you the new girl?" she asks as I start to head downstairs.

I turn my head and give a smile. "Yah, I guess so".

I hop down the stairs and go into the cell. Behind me someone clears their throat causing me to jump.

"May I help you?" I asks as i turn around to see Carl.

He shrugs. "I want to know what your plan is".

I give him a weird look. "Excuse me?"

"You have a plan for being here, I know you do"

"Umm... last time I checked you came into my house and your group told me to pack up"

He shrugs. "I guess you're right but there's one thing I still don't get"

"And what is that?" I ask full of curiosity.

"How you lasted so long and what happened to your family"he says casually.

I look down at the ground and sit on his bed.

When I look back up I look straight into his eyes. "Can I trust you?"

Authors note::
