Mercy (Carl Grimes)

Chapter 23

Marina POV:

My head was spinning, while everyone surrounded carl...

This isn't happening
This isn't happening
No it's not happening.

Little sobs still ranged in me, glistening eyes focused on carls body...

I'm a mess, a wreck,

It's my fault, it's always my fault.

I saw tears streaming down ricks face....trembling hands on his head in frustration, in anger...in sadness.

Everyone was trying to help, help is what I should've strived for, but I failed with misery, lingering inside me each time I try...

Blood was splattered all over his flawless face that I loved so tenderly, his eyes were closed, trapping those beautiful sapphire orbs of his, his hair looked a mess, but he still looked handsome to me...

Always...

"Oh carl, why? Why did you have to go?" rick whispered, breaking down in small, painful sobs.

It's my fault he's vanished, it's my fault! I should've taken the plunge! nobody would care anyway! would they?

I never would think anything so beyond inaccurate.

"Is there a way of second chance? is there a way of faith and hope?" I heard a voice mumble.

We all scanned each other, looking for the tiny voice.

"Who said that?" Daryl rambles, taking a double take.

"It's me."
I then saw it was a 7 year old girl that lived in cell block D, such a wise persona.

"charlee?" carol questioned, strolling towards her.
"What do you mean a second chance? You have to remember there is no second chances anymore, there all gone."

Charlee just smiled, "are you positive?"

Carol nodded her head with mighty swift, knowing she was correct.

Charlee twirled her red locks. "You might be wrong ms.Peletier, and how do I know? I have mind, and abilities, and answers, they are all in conclusion, and they are all with hope and faith, and a second chance, so...maybe we can give carl grimes a second chance!"

Without a second glance, Charlee did the unthinkable, with a wave of her hands, and a spin of her figure, she went up and up until she stood above carls body. then, a sprinkle of gold dust wrenched out of her little hands, the dust reached carls body.

"Wait a few." she spoke.

A few minutes later carl twitched, his eyes opening little by little.

I gasped with happiness. "oh my god."

He slowly but Shirley stood up without knowing a single thing of what happened.

Everyone had their tear brimmed eyes on carl.

"C-carl?" Rick trembled, "you're alive!"

"Dad of course I am-"

Before he could finish his sentence, everyone gave him a giant hug, happier than ever.

Carol then turned to sweet, little Charlee, and smiled.

"Sweetheart, how did you do that?"

"It's a gift, a gift for now, a perfect time, but dreadful time for miracles." She said, head held high.

"Honey, I'm so sorry I doubted you! I never knew you were gifted! it seems....impossible!"

"There's always such thing! all you gotta do is believe!"

Carol then wrapped her arms around the sweet innocent gift from god, she saved carl, but most of all, she saved me."

I slowly walked to her, step by step.

"T-thank you charlee, you saved him." I told her, holding back tears.

"No problem, I just never gave up, and I believed, that's all you really gotta do, I still believe my daddy is still here, he's my angel, I love you daddy." she quivered, she started to tear up.

"Oh sweetheart don't cry! you are amazing! but most importantly...i know exactly how you feel." I told, as I reached in for a hug.

She hugged me surprisingly.

Man, I barley know this little girl, but I know, I know! she's my little hero....

I love you charlee.
