Peyton's POV

I was sitting on the bench, enjoying the view from the porch. When I suddenly saw something running closer to our house. Was it one of those things? Wait.... no he's holding onto something. I thought to myself. I quickly ran inside and yelled, "Ma!"

"What's going on?" She asked looking over to me.

"Ma, hurry there's someone running our way... he's holding a boy." I informed her.

"What? Dad!" She got up to get Hershel.

We all ran back outside. "Was he bit?" Hershel asked the man.

"Shot. By your man." He answered panicked. 

"Otis?" Patricia asked.

"Come on hurry bring him inside." Hershel was going to need to operate. "Patricia I need my full kit. Maggie?"

"Yeah?"

"Painkillers, coagulates, grab everything."

"Got it."

"Pey clean towels, sheets, Alcohol."

"Ok!" I ran to get the supplies.

Rick began to whimper about his wife not knowing what happened. Ma offered to get her, she went outside about to get on the horse, but I stop her.

"Ma, do you have to go? Can't I come with you?" I asked her.

"Honey I don't think that's a good idea." She says bending her knees to be face to face with me.

"But, Ma... you know how Rick said he has more people on the highway? I could show them the way here." I continued to beg. She sighed.

"Fine. But if you hurt you even a little bit you tell me." Ma said finally giving in.

"I will Ma I promise." I smiled.

"Good! Come on let's go." She says, giving me a hand to jump up onto the horse. We rode on the horse until we heard screaming. Ma grabbed a bat out and hit the monster away from the lady on the ground. "Lori...Lori Grimes?" Ma calls out.

"I'm Lori." A lady with brown curly hair walks up. We look at her, then at each other. I nodded and got off the horse.

"There was an accident, Carl's been shot." Ma explains. Lori stood there in shock. "Rick needs you come on!" Finally Lori moves and gets on the horse. Just before Ma turned the horse around she asks the remaining people, "Rick said you had a camp back at the highway?"

"Yeah." The Asian guy answered.

"Bring Pey with you, she'll take you back to our farm. You'll see the mailbox, name's Greene... Hiya!" She rode off with Lori. The monster sat back up groaning. I took my knife out.

"Oh, Shut up!" I said as I stabbed it in the head. I turned to the group, "Well we better get going cause they need me back there!" I said. We all walked to the highway and we talked while we were getting ready. "So, what's all y'all's names?" I asked.

"I'm Glenn, the one you guys saved back there is Andrea, the guy with the crossbow is Daryl, and the other woman is Carol." Glenn answered.

"Okay, do you guys have any other people in your group other than Rick, Carl, and Lori?" I asked him.

"Uh.. Yeah there's Dale and T." Glenn replied.

"T?" I was confused.

"Yeah. It's a nick-name, T-Dog." He answers.

"I see, that's interesting." I said.

"Here we are, turn here." I told Dale. He drove the RV and the other cars followed down to the farm. I saw Ma waiting outside through the window of the RV. Once we came to a stop I opened the door and ran out. "Ma!" I called out.
