Surviving The Walking Dead

Ch:28 Searching for the Guys

I opened my eyes and woke up. Everybody else was still sleeping. I fed the fire and I looked around. Daryl, Rick, and Glenn still werent back yet. A knot formed in the core of my stomach. I grabbed a backpack that Beth found in one of the cars. I emptied all the items into a suitcase. I put 4 cans of peaches in there. I also grabbed the 3 biggest hoodies and stuffed them into the backpack too.

My crossbow was sitting by the log so I grabbed it and loaded it. I swung it around my back as I grabbed the knives from my boots. I took out a sharpener from my left boot and sharpened both of my knives. After they were super sharp I set them back in the holders in my boots. I took my crossbow off of my back to put my backpack on. After my backpack was on my back I swung my crossbow on my shoulder, but it slid off because of the bulge in the backpack. So I decided I would carry it in my hands.

I put some wood on the fire and I grabbed a piece of wood. I took out my knife and carved into it. I said "be back later, went to find the guys, getting really worried about them". I set the piece of wood down next to Carl so he could read it as soon as he wakes up. I quickly shaprened my knife again then stuck it back in the holder in my boot.

I ran away from the group and ran through the woods. I needed to find them before the walkers could get to them. I jumped over logs and dodged tree's as I ran. I told myself  "I could see a lot more if I get onto the road". I made a quick turn to the left and I examined the steep hill. I swung my crossbow onto my back and tightened the strap.

I grabbed onto tree's and roots that were on the steep hill. I was half way up when I grabbed a root that came right out of the ground. I slid back down and grasped onto a tree. I picked my self back up and climbed it again. As I climbed my crossbow kept slipping down my arm. It was getting annoying, but I just kept pushing it up onto my back. I finally reached the top when I came to a small dilemma. There was nothing for me to grab onto to boost me up onto the road. I used my pure arm strenght and muscle to pull me up onto the road.

Aftet I was on the road I laid on my back for a few seconds to catch my breath. I got back up again and ran along the road with my crossbow in my hands. While I ran I noticed a huge truck. It looked like it was an army or military truck. I ran even fast until I reached the truck. I looked into the driver seat and nobody was there. The only thing that was there was a crack in the window with blood smeared all over it.

I ran to the back of the truck and quickly pulled back the curtain. A walker sprung out and tackled me to the floor. I smacked my head off the cement so I became disoriented for about a minute. All that I could to was keep my arms straight to keep the walker from biting me. When my arms gave out there was a loud bang and blood splattered onto my face. I looked up and saw Carl standing there pointing his gun at the walker. I pushed the walker off of me and I picked myself up.

Carl ran over to me and wrapped his arms around me. He asked "are you ok"? I said yeah, but my head hurts a bit". He said "dont ever leave me again, you scared me half to death". I said "I'm sorry, but I have to find the guys". He said "ok, and I will help you find them". I kissed him then said "we need to check the truck". We walked back over to the truck and smiled at what we saw.

There were guns and ammunition piled in the back of the truck. I took my backpack off and set that and my crossbow on the ground. We hopped into the back of the truck and grabbed all of the guns. After the guns were cleared out of the truck we went for all the ammunition. About 5 minutes later he hopped down out of the back of the truck. We looked at all the guns and ammuntion. I smiled and said "I have a good feeling now, I think this is a sign".

I grabbed an army bag that carried the guns. We stuffed all the guns into the bag and put the ammunition into another bag. I put the bag of guns around my back and Carl put the bag of ammunition around his back. I grabbed my crossbow and the backpack. Carl took the backpack from me and carried it.

I grabbed my crossbow and held it in my hands. Carl took a light machiene gun from the bag and made sure that it was loaded. Then he took out another and did the same with it. He put his pistol in he holder that was around his jeans. He handed me one of the guns and said "here take this". I took it and said "thanks". I put my crossbow around my back and tightened the strap as far as it would go so the crossbow wouldnt fall down my arm about  a million times.

 Carl smiled and said "there has to be about 30 guns in there including hand guns. I smiled and said "we hit the jackpot". He wrapped his arm around my neck and brought me close to him. Our lips met and we kissed for about 30 seconds. I pulled away and said "we need to find the guys". He said "yeah" and we started to run along the road.

After about 30 more minutes of running I looked to my right and saw the top of a white building. I said "look over there". Carl looked and said "thats a hospital I used to go to when I was a baby". We ran down the road then crawled down the steep inbankment. I picked up the pace and ran as fast as I could towards the hospital.

When we got there I could see their footprints in the muddy area. I smiled and said "they must be here". I looked around and saw walkers roaming the area. I walked along the hill side. I saw a back enterance that was propped open with a broken arrow. I smiled and said "Daryl". I grabbed Carl's hand as I ran towards the back door.

I smiled again and said "Daryl, Rick, Glenn we're coming"!
