We're Not Too Far Gone (Rick Grimes)

Chapter 10

The thought played on my mind for the rest of the day, and with nothing to do in here, there wasnt really anything i could do to take my mind off of it. When Rick came over and put his arms round me, i didnt put mine back around him. He leaned back to look at me. "Are you okay?" He asked. "What are we Rick? We sit here and do everything that couples do, but are we even a couple? Or are we just messing around because we have nobody else? If thats the case, i want it to stop, because i do actually like you Rick" I admitted. He looked taken back, then he pulled me into him. "I like you too Em. We're not just messing around, i want us to be together, its just a case of whether you want to or not" He said. "Ofcourse I do" I said before leaning up to kiss him. As i pulled away i heard the door open and there stood Gareth. "Emily, your coming with me" He said. I was surprised that he could use my name. Rick grabbed my hand but i turned to look at him. "I dont want him to hurt you, just let me go" I whispered. He reluctantly let go and Gareth took my hand. He pulled me out and shut the door before slamming me against it. "I do believe we didnt finish something" He said before starting to undress me and himself. It was happening again. I couldnt get away from it. I tried to push him away but he held a knife to my throat, I screamed. "Shhhh, you dont want the others to hear your screams" He whispered. A tear rolled down my cheek, i looked down and saw a gun just lying infront on me. I dragged it up the door with my foot and took it in my hand. While Gareth was biting on my neck i quickly checked the magazine. Full. I knocked the knife from his hand and put the gun against his head. "You let us go, and you tell us where Andrea is, or i will not hesitate to put every bullet in this gun into your flesh, starting from the bottom, until i can put the final one into your skull" I said through gritted teeth. He smirked before pulling out his own gun and putting it against my head. "And i wont hesitate to kill you here and now" He said. I thought of what Rick did when the group Daryl knew attacked us, and how he jerked his head back, so the bullet missed him, hey, i had nothing to lose in this world. So i did it, the gun fired and i was alive. I grabbed his gun. "NOOO!" I heard Rick and Charlotte scream from inside the cart, then i heard the sound of Charlotte crying. I would have reassured them i was okay, but i didnt have the time. I held both guns up at him and kicked his knife away. "Pull up your trousers, pull up my shorts, or i will shoot you" I said. He looked scared and he quickly did as i said. I never stopped aiming the guns at him. "Take me to your people" I demanded. He walked me to where i found 12 people, armed. "Dont shoot her," Gareth said "Put your weapons down" They did as he said. "Come over here, she wants to talk to you" He said. They all walked over. 12 of his people, 20 bullets, easy. "What do you want from us?" One asked. I smirked and stared him in the eyes. "Blood" I said. I shot him dead before starting to shoot the others. When they were all down I aimed both guns back at Gareth. "Get the key out for that cart my friends are in" i demanded. He got out a key that said 'Cart A' on it. I took it from him. "Take me back to the cart" He walked me back. "Stand against that wall, now." He did as i said and i kept on gun aimed at him before unlocking the cart and sliding the door open, i walked back over to Gareth and held a gun at his temple. The others started to appear at the door of the cart, Rick, Daryl and Charlotte were last out, they all looked upset, but those 3 looked awful. When they saw me there faces lit up. "EM YOUR OKAY" Charl shouted, but didnt come towards me. I smiled at them. I got close to Gareths face, "Would you like to tell my group and I where the fuck Andrea is." I said. He was shaking in fear. "We ate her" My eyes widened, but i didnt ellaborate on it. "What were you going to do with us?," I asked. "Why were you giving us food if you want us to die?" He looked me in the eye "We were going to eat you, we gave you food so you would have meat on you" He admitted. "Do you realise you screwed with the wrong people?" I asked. He shook his head, "No," I stared at him. "I messed with the wrong girl" He admitted. "Why did you rape me?" I asked, pushing the gun harder into his head. "Your hot, your not afraid to stand up for yourself and your friends. I like that" He said. This made me furious, I dont know why, but it did. "Shes beautiful and you know it, she is attractive, yes, she doesnt take shit from anyone, but that is not any reason to rape her, you put her, her sister and me through physical pain, watching her come in crying, killed us" Rick said. I looked at him and smiled. "Look, im sorry. What i did was out of order" Gareth said. I slowly started to take my gun away from his head. The others looked at me in shock. I had 8 bullets. I did what i had to do. "Do you know how much you made me suffer?" I said to him. "No" He admitted. "Would you ever want to know? Know how much pain i was in?" I asked. "No" He said again. "Well thats a damn shame" I said before shooting him once in both feet, in his legs, in his genitals, his stomach and his shoulder. I then grabbed his knife and cut his his legs, arms and stomach. "Does this hurt?" I asked him. "YES!" He screamed. "Good, now you can stay here while we get all of your weapons, our own weapons, and anything else that could become useful to us" I looked at the others, "Strip the place clean of weapons, food and supplies, Daryl, get our weapons, Carl stay with your dad, Beth you and Judith stay here with me" I gave out orders. They followed them, noticing i wasnt the happiest of people. I picked Gareth up, only causing him more pain. I threw him into the cart he kept us all in and he screamed out in pain again.

When all of the others got back we split our weapons up so we had equal amounts, and had our own original weapons. I let them all say things to Gareth, all horrible things ofcourse. I was last. I went up to him, gun in hand.

"Goodbye asshole" I said, before shooting him in the head, a moment hes probably been dying for these last few hours.
