I woke up the next morning and looked out the window. everyone was huddled in a group talking about what they should do to look for Sophia. the trail they were following ran cold. it became harder to track her. Rick made us all come back to rest and start it this morning. they were planning.
T-dog was holding his bandaged arm after he cut it on a car. he was favouring it, keeping it close. "Well split up into groups to go and find Sophia. t-dog, dale, Andrea, Lori, and carol will stay here and watch the camp and salvage any supplies you can. Shane and me will go down to where I left her and see if she returned, dixons go down to where the trail went cold and try to pick it up again. Everyone got it?" we all nodded and started going to work.
"Can I go with you dad?" We all turned to Carl then to Rick. "ill say you should, he's in good hands with all these people watching his back." dale said with old man wisdom. "Please dad. I wanna find her too. and I wanna know that I at least tried to save her life." Carl told his dad "fine but you have to stay close and do exactly as I say." Carl looked at him. "I promise."
Me and daryl were searching a cabin by the trail we found. In a closet there was a blanket and a pillow. we kept looking around. we heard the sound of something drop and hit the floor with a loud bang. I grabbed my hunting knife and held it out, daryl loaded his cross now and took the lead. "please don't shoot us." a woman's voice pleaded. "come out and drop your weapons" daryl said, his voice booming. wait didn't she say us...
DARYL'S POV
The woman stepped out from behind the counter with a little girl behind her. I looked at the girl it wasn't Sophia. I looked up to the woman she had strikingly beautiful green eyes and the darkest hair I've ever seen. I was stunned, and didn't zone out till I heard the gun drop to the ground. I shook it off. "how many of them are you?" I asked her. "just us, I'm cj, and this is my sister bailey." she pointed to the little girl behind her with dark red hair. they had the same eyes.
"Im daryl, and this is John he's my brother. are u dangerous or can we trust you?" John nudged me "you never ask people if they can be trusted of course their gunna say yes!" he winked at cj. she just laughed. she has a cute laugh. I felt my self smiling but quickly shut it down. she looked at me curiously and I turned away. "follow us, you can stay With our group if you want." and I started to walk towards the camp, it was getting dark.
I hear their footsteps follow quickly behind me. "how old are you?" I heard John ask I turned and looked at them. "I'm 27 and she's 12." c.j responded automatically. Shes not even that much younger then me. "how did you guys lose your family?" John pressed. I shushed him and pushed them towards the trees. there was a herd of walker coming towards us.
We climbed the trees and waited
there for more then twenty minutes. bailey looked at me "is it safe" she whispered just barely audible. I shrugged and started to climb down slowly. I motioned for them to be quiet and follow me. I heard a crack and my head shot up. bailey fell out of the tree. c.j looked at me startled. the herd turned around. I picked up bailey over my shoulder and grabbed c.j's hand an started to to run. John was ahead of us leading the Way. we ran for a long time before we reached the creek where we started.
"are you ok, bailey." I whispered looking for scratches and bruises. "no no I'm fine just my wrist hurts." she sighed. "we'll get it checked out. for now you guys can share a tent with me and John". they nodded their thanks and we started for the highway. "daryl! we were supposed to wait till you got back, we have to go."
Carl was shot in the woods and everyone is at the farm waiting for us. Wait who are they?" carol was rambling on. "this is c.j and bailey. There with me and John their good." she looked at me hurt and something like jealousy. she glared at c.j. "he saved my sister I... he saved us..." she looked at me and I swore right there id do anything to call her mine.
JOHN'S POV
Carol was glaring at c.j. daryl stepped In between them to stop the death stares. "wait Carl was shot" something in me in started to hurt "is he ok..." carol got out of her trance "last I heard Shane and the man that shot him were going for supplies to save his life." My head jerked up "lets go now, i need to see him." We piled into the car and started going down the highway. we saw a huge farm house with a barn and surrounded by fences.
the R.v was parked with tents around it. I didn't have time to look around, I ran up to the steps to see Glenn. "where's carl!?" I panted. he looked at me shocked. his eyes flickered between me and a short haired brunette girl and sighed. "ill show you, come on." I followed Glenn up the stairs. he pointed to a door. "he's in there" he looked at me sadly.
I burst the through the door. Lori and Rick's heads shot up and looked to me. Rick looked pale and Lori was crying. Lori ran up to me and hugged me, I wrapped my arms around her awkwardly. "it's gunna be ok, he's gunna make it. Lori he's tough ok."
She looked at me. "thank you John. for being his friend for looking out for him, he looks to you as a brother."
I smiled at her. she looked tired, so did rick. "ill watch him so u guys can rest, you need to sleep." she hugged me again and went to her tent with Rick."
I sat beside Carl on the bed. "buddy all of us need you to come back. kids are rare nowadays and your keeping us sane. I found a girl your age. you guys would be great friends I can see it. just please Carl don't leave us." I put my head down and looked at his body he was breathing and that's a good sign. I hope he makes it. there was a knock at the door I turned my head to see who it was.
She walked over to me and I looked up to meet her eyes. She had the most beautiful blue eyes iv ever seen. they were same colour as the ocean in the middle of the day. blue with a tinge of green. they were beautiful... she was beautiful. She placed her hand on my shoulder "here I was supposed to bring you something to eat." I stood up and accepted the plate. everything inside me was screaming to hug her. but I put it off. "I'm Johnny." she smiled "I'm beth."
