Past Review//Operation Prison

When you grow up the way I did a zombie apocalypse isn't that bad. When I was born my mother and father fought constantly. My father drank basically my weight and his combined in whisky. Then would hit my mom when he got angry. When my mother left us I was only 5, it was a hell of a time with my father. He stopped drinking, that was a plus, but he became easily irritated and somewhat violet. I still have a couple scars from him. Anyways, maybe a month after I turned 6 he left me with our neighbors who lived down the street, The Greene's. From then on Hershel officially adopted me and I then became Chloe Greene. Otis and Patricia, Hershel's friends really took a liking to me. Patricia taught me how to sew and Otis taught me how to hunt.

When the apocalypse happened, we were safe at the farm house for a while. That is until the day when Otis and I went into the woods, and hunted a deer instead shot a boy my age.

'I giggled as I ran ahead of Otis, "Don't you get lost now Chlo!" He called after me, but soon caught up as I stopped. A buck was seen through the tree line.
I raised my gun to shoot but Otis beat me too it, we heard screaming and took off though the trees to see a man holding a boy and crying from a gunshot, a bloody bullet wound on his stomach, I instantly turned to Otis and said "We need to get them to Hershel"
The two men, one carrying the boy while the other pointed the gun at us, Half way across the field Otis ran out of breathe, and the other man jerked him up "Hey! You move dickhead!"

"Hey! leave him alone!" I shouted back but he ignored me. "Come on get us there!" The same man shouted
"How Far?" The man carrying the boy shouted

"Another half mile this way! I'll take you" I said, and he followed me as we ran that half mile. I made it to the house before him as he trailed behind Maggie was on the porch Ii ran pasted her and inside. "Hershel!" I screamed, and he followed me out with everyone behind him
"Was he bit?" Hershel asked him, but the guy just says "Shot, by your man"
Hershel nodded quickly

"Help me, help my boy" the man begged
"get him inside" Hershel said and the man went to follow but turned to me "Wait for the others please" I nodded, and he went inside with Hershel.
Not long went by and Otis came with the other man
"They're inside" I said, and Otis walked him passed me and inside. I sat on the porch sing with my knees to my chest as the screams started.'

Hershel needed a respirator so Otis and Shane, one of Rick's men, went to get it.

'I watched Otis hug Patricia and I came down and hugged him too "Be careful Otis" I whispered, and he took a breather "I will, watch over everyone now" he said in my ear before letting go.'

Let's just say, Otis didn't come back...

After helping Rick's group look for a little girl named Sofia, Shane and Rick decided they were going to teach people to shoot. I was already skilled in that department, so Rick asked if I'd help teach Carl.

'I stood next to Carl as I held the handgun that he was going to use "Alright, so first things first you want to be safe with it, don't fear it, be safe, the kickback can be killer, but we can go over that later" I told him, and Carl nodded listening to me. "Now, turn the safety off" I told him handing him the hand gun. Carl took it from me and looked it over before switching the safety off. "Hold it up, and Aim" Carl did as tell and held the gun up at arm's length. "Take a deep breath and shoot" I watched as Carl waited a little bit just breathing before he pulled the trigger. He knocked the can clean off the post before putting the gun down and smiling. "That was awesome!" He said and rushed over hugging me tightly. "Thank you, Chloe!" I giggled and hugged him back. "Now try again" I told him, and he nodded before going back in his stance. Carl did my advice to him again and shot the two other cans off the post.  He turned, and we smiled at each other before his dad came over. "I'll go set the cans back up" I told them smiling.'
