Chapter 12

Glenn said that we couldn't go through the front due to walkers, so we had to make the detour to inside. Glenn opened the door and banged on the walls. Silence. Aiden was ready to walk in but Glenn raised his hand up. "Give it a second." He said. "It's a big place. There could be some in there." I mentioned. Glenn agreed. "So let's say they are." Aiden assumed. Glenn looked back at him. "Let's move. Let's be safe." Aiden added. "All right." Glenn agreed. We turned our flashlights on with our guns in hand. I stood by Eugene since he was already close to me since he was scared. I could hear the shakiness in his breaths. We watched behind our backs within each step. Don't need any walkers sneaking up on us. That was when we heard a continuous metal rattling. "Shh." Glenn called out. We listened again and there was the same metal rattling, along with the snarling of walkers. "Shit.." I mumbled. "They're stuck behind something." Glenn mentioned. "How do you know?" Aiden asked. "I don't.." Glenn added. Well great. "But they aren't here." Glenn mentioned. That is true. "All right. Let's go." Glenn ushered us. He began walking and we did so behind him. Eugene was still shaking all over. I held his free hand and he calmed the shaking a bit. But he was still scared. As we kept walking, the snarling got louder. We approached next to a metal gate. Suddenly a walker came up and I screamed and fell back. Someone caught me. I thought it was Eugene. "Don't worry, sugar." Aiden's voice spoke. He kept trying to reach for my breasts. I bit his hand and pushed him off. "Guys stop it!" Nicholas exclaimed. I made a smug face at Aiden. "All clear." Glenn called out. "You know your stuff." Aiden told him once he walked next to him. "We were out there for a long time." Tara mentioned. "There could be more." Glenn said. "Let's get to work." Aiden called. Tara turned and pointed her flashlight in Eugene's face. "You're up." Tara said. Eugene looked at her as if she was crazy. "I'll go with him." I told her as I walked up to him. Tara gave me a smug look while I just smiled like, once again, I didn't give a shit. Eugene and I walked off and we were shining our flashlights at boxes. Eugene wouldn't let go of my hand. Eugene let go of my hand, suddenly. "This one here." Eugene pointed to a box. I grabbed my knife and began cutting up the box, standing on my tippy toes. "I see you've been squating lately." Eugene pointed out. I turned around and gave him a joking smug face. I laughed afterwards. "I'm kidding, ya goof." I told him and continued cutting the box. First off, came out was a lot of styrofoam peanuts. And then a black box. Eugene peered over. "Yeah." Eugene approved. "We found 'em." I called out. "Here's another." I told him as I handed him another box. "Alright, Eugene." Glenn congratulated him. Aiden then walked out, scouting for walkers. "I'm so proud of you." I told Eugene as I stood up and kissed him. Eugene smiled back. We all stopped when we heard Aiden shooting. We walked to see where he was and found him trying to shoot at a military walker that had armor. And grenades. "It's got armor. Let it come closer." Glenn called to Aiden. "I got it." Aiden said. "Listen to him, damn it!" I screamed at him. He ignored me. Aiden kept shooting at the walker. "Aiden, stop!" Glenn yelled at him. "Sto-" My world suddenly went black.
