A Broken Crossbow and Mic

Ch.6

"Niall, can I-" I was cut off by a loud thud then the bus stopping.

"What the he'll happen?" Daryl yelled waking up from his much needed nap.

"I ran over a couple walkers!" Liam shrugged.

"A couple?!" Daryl hollered going on a rampage.

"Daryl, calm down, mate." Zayn soothed him.

Daryl's eyes focused on him rage still in them. "Daryl, please?" I whispered. His eyes softened at my words. "Let's just go figure this out." I said grabbing my bow.

"Fine." Daryl scoffed grabbing his and making his way out the bus. I rolled my eyes following him.

When we came outside six walkers were piled up under the front left tire.

"Sh*t!" I cursed, shooting the top two Daryl stabbing the others.

Everyone else came out.

"The engines fused." I stated. "From the pressure applied to the gas."

Heads turned and eyes layed on Liam. "Sorry?" he shrugged looking at the ground.

"James, don't mess with them." Harry warned the curious child who was playing with the dead walker bodies.

Suddenly a shriek left the child's plump pink lips. A walker on the bootom we had missed was biting him. James cried and screamed jerking on his hand. Liam shot the geek, James clasping in Beth's arms.

For good measures I stepped on the walkers head. A dark slimy crimson colour poured out covering the ground beneath my beaten up converse. I rushed over James, Beth conforming the dieing child. She caressed his forehead running her fingers through his soft chocolate locks.

Harry's lip wobbled staring at James his mini-Harry, pal, brother from another mother, whatever they called each other.

"I can save 'em." I whispered.

Harry's eyes lit up. "How?"

"I h-have to." I said in a hushed tone looking up and meeting Daryl's gaze.

"No." he murmured.

"Daryl, I can't let him die."

"Well I can't bare to see someone go through what Merle did! Especially a child of his age!" Daryl bit.

"Guys shut up!" Eleanor yelled. My eyes widen. Eleanor's always been a shy quiet girl but now she was a angered woman. "Help him." she whispered.

I frowned but carried on. "Harry hold his other hand for support. Hold 'em down." I placed a makeshift gag in his mouth as the others held the dieing boy down.

"I'm so sorry."
