The Yogscast Walking

Chapter 8- Confessions

I stand beside Lewis and we listen to their story.

"Okay, so after you two left to go check the perimeter, me and Zoey guarded the camp. We saw Ridge and Rythian together discussing somethin', but we didn't know, or really care about what they were talking about. Then, Duncan went over and the three talked for what seemed like the whole day, staying in Ridge and Rythians tent the whole time." Martyn says and looks at the ground, fiddling with his knife.

"I asked Martyn what he thought was going on, and he didn't know. We didn't think that they would be planning something without you, Lewis, because you're our leader. Then you two didn't come back. We thought you were gone. We thought Sips and Sjin's group had killed you." Zoey says and me and Lewis share a glance.

"That's sort of what happened. We found a group of walkers, and Sips and Sjin appeared. Sjin almost killed me, but we managed to get away before either of us died. Then we ran from the zombies and hoped that everything at camp was ok. Then we came back and, well, you know the rest." I say and the two nod.

"So, are they dead? Sips and Sjin?" Zoey asks, with a mix of hope and hurt in her voice.

"Well, we aren't exactly sure. Lewis and I knocked them to the ground then we ran. We didn't stick around long enough to find out." I say and Zoey sighs.

"So, after you thought we were dead, what happened?" Lewis says and they continue.

"Yeah, so, right before morning, these guys showed up in camp and Ridge and Rythian greeted them like they'd known them their whole lives. Zoey and I immediately didn't trust them, and we still didn't know what happened to you." Martyn says and a pained expression covers his face.

"Then two men dragged Duncan out of the tent. They'd beaten him to a pulp. Martyn, Martyn lost it. He stormed up to the guys and started arguing with them, and I had to calm him down. Ever since they met, those two have been like brothers. Anyways, we packed up and slipped away. They must have left and done something with Duncan, because when they spotted us, and chased us, and we got back to camp, Duncan wasn't there. Then, you know what happened after that." Zoey says quietly and Martyn looks torn apart by sorrow.

"So, we have to find Duncan. He obviously wasn't okay with whatever Ridge and Rythian were doing, if he was beaten up. And the four of us stick together, no matter what." Lewis says and we all nod and keep walking.

Lewis and I end up side by side, and I smile lightly at him.

"We'll be okay, you know. All of us. I promise." I say and he nods, thinking but he smiles back at me.

A serious one, but hey, it's still a smile.

Zoey and I walk together talking, and the boys are in front.

{Lewis's p.o.v}

I watch Hannah go back and talk with Zoey and Martyn walks by me.

"I think I might know where Dunc is. He might be in that little shack that we found. Ya know, the one with the bronze roof." Martyn says hopefully and I nod.

We keep walking, and I see Hannah and Zoey behind us, talking, and Hannah's got her sword out, and Zoey has her gun.

"Girls, what's going on? Why are your weapons out. You look about ready to kill someone." I say and they look at me.

"Just to have something in case a zombie come out of no where." Zoey replies and Hannah nods.

"Ok then. We're headed to the shack we found a while back. Remember, Zoey." I say and Zoey's eyes light up.

"That makes sense. Let's go!" She says and sprints forwards to Martyn, who has taken the lead, her fiery red hair whipping around her face.

Me and Hannah laugh slightly, since Zoey can be quite the kid sometimes.

We walk towards the shack, and I know that something terrible is going to happen.

Something none of us will be able to control.
