P.O.V. Adelaide.
I walk upfront. Gun raised and the others following.

"Let's find what we need and go." I whisper. Jimmy, Max and Lucy walk into one isle as Mark, Ken, Ned and Hayley take the other leaving me behind to keep watch. Jack is keeping watch outside with Henry. I look around. Shots make me look up. Ned is shooting at a military walker.

"STOP!" Mark and Ken shout. I look at them confused. A huge explosion blows me back. I feel something pierce my shoulder. I look down and see a long iron pen sticking through my shoulder.

"10K!?" Ken screams.

"Help!" I manage to get out. Walkers start pouring in. I kick a few to keep them back. Soon Mark finds me.

"O my god." He says.

"How's Ned?" I ask.

"Hayley got him out." He says as Ken rounds the corner.

"And Jimmy, Max and Lucy?" I ask.

"They got out with the generators." Ken says.

"Good, now go." I say.

"Hell no." Mark says. He and Ken start to pull me off. I try to hold in my screams.

"Almost." Mark says. Soon they get me off and we run for the exit. Jack opens the side door from the van and we jump in as Henry drives away. Jack takes a look at me. What happened?" He asks. I rest against the side of the van. The pain was bearable, I've had worse but it still sucked.

"I don't even know what happened, I saw Ned shooting at a walker and there was an explosion, it blowed me back against the wall and some iron pen pierced me. I say glutching onto my shoulder.

"Let me see it." He says. I roll my eyes.

"I'm fine." I say smiling. He nods and sits back. Soon we arrive back in town where Tara wraps me up. I walk out of the building and am met with Jack.

"You ok?" He asks. I nod.

"I'm fine, Tara stiched it up and gave me some medicine." I say. He hugs me.

"Let's go home, you're gonna rest for today." He says. I smile. We walk to our house where I sit on the couch.

"I wanna play video games." I sigh.

"We can, I found a old ps." Jack says from the kitchen.

"Does it have call of duty?" I ask. Jack nods.

"BRING IT ON GREEN POTATO!" I scream. He chuckles and goes grab it. He hooks it up to the tv and soon we're playing call of duty.

"Jack, 10K, you in here?" It was around 10 in the evening.

"It's open!" I scream back. Mark opens it and walks in.

"You playing call of duty without me?" He exclaims.

"Come join us then." Jack says. Mark joins us and we keep playing for another 3 hours.

"Go to Amy Mark." I chuckle as I close the door. I sit down on the couch behind Jack who's on the floor. I comb my hands through his hair as he leans back against my legs.

"I love you." He says. I smile and place a kiss on his head. He gets up and kisses me. I smile and wrap my legs around his waist. He lifts me up and carries me upstairs. He lays me on the bed. He rolls off of me and hugs me.

"Rise and shine." Jack says. I open my eyes to be met with his ocean blue ones. I smile.

"I would love to wake up like this every morning." I say. He smiles and kisses me. We get out and eat some breakfast before we gotta go on gate shift. Our gate was simple, it was a rolling fence, nothing more. Jack and I just goof around a bit. I poke him in the side as I start running in circles. He catches up to me and wraps his arms around my waist.

"Noo!" I say laughing. A scream stops us.

"What was that?" I ask. Jack let's go of me and I walk towards the fence. I see Jacob, a kid who we found with his sister, standing and pointing a gun at a old wire that connects the curch outside the town with ours.

"JACOB, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" I scream as I see Mark hanging from the rope with walkers reaching up.

"He deserves to DIE!" He says. I open the gate.

"Go get Jacob." I say.

"What are you going to do?" He asks.

"Just trust me." I say. I place a kiss on his cheek and walk out of the fence as I close it behind me.

"HEY, COME AND GET ME!" I say. The walkers turn towards me as I lead them away.

"6079." I say as I kill them a scream sounds and I start running. I look around confused as I run into the town. I climb up the ladder to where Jacob was standing.

"Stay there, I'll blow they're brains out." He says. Jack and Mark both lay on the ground. Mark doesn't move and Jack holds his stomach in pain.

"Jacob, please, don't do this." I say. I slowly grab my gun. His finger goes closer to the trigger. I quickly shoot him as I crawl over to Jack. I take his head and put it in my lap. I pull Mark closer to me as I scream for help.

"HELP!" I scream crying.

"Is...Mark..." Jack asks.

"He's alive, he's still alive." I cry.

"HELP!" I scream again. Jack starts to slip away. I try to keep him awake 'till Tara finally arrives.
