It was the morning after the night before, as I stand up, my foot steps on something, as that something made a squeal.
"Carl! What are you doing?" I shout, the something I stood on was Carl, 'whoops'
"I needed to speak to you."
"I have no words to say to you." I say.
"Please, she isn't what she seemed."
"And neither are you Carl. You know the amount of shit I went through as a child. You knew. And I trusted you, I fucking trusted you, the idiot I must have been." I say, slumping back down on my mattress.
"You weren't the idiot. I was."
"You could say that again."
"I plan for you too." I mutter under my
breath.
"Pardon." He says, his voice soft and gentle, as if he was trying to lure me back in.
"Carl, I don't want to-"
But my sentence was interrupted by gun fire, and the worst kind.
An enemies.
Me and Carl run outside, desperately grabbing ammo and guns, becoming fully loaded.
And the worst horror scene I could ever fantasied appeared in front of me, laying on the cold cement, covered in their own deep red blood, was Beth. Judith was lying next to her, splattered in blood, screaming.
"Holy shit." I say, running towards Beth's side, and cradling Judith in my arms, trying to stop her from crying and attracting the walkers, but as I rise my head, I notice Brian, Martinez by his side, machine fun dangling by his hip.
But then the worst scene emerged, Alexa accompanied him, a knife covered in blood, and as I look down to Beth's side, I notice a deep knife wound.
"You bitch." I shout at her.
"Takes one to know one." She mocks.
I back away, back behind the safety of the fence, yet I was still close enough for a bullet to pass through my head.
"So we meet again." Brian says, fiendishly laughing, as he stares down at Beth's body.
"Don't worry. We didn't hurt her brain." Alexa says.
"She was your cousin!" I shout.
"Lauren." Carl says, holding my wrist.
"What!" I scream in his face.
"This what I tried to warn you about." he spoke, explaining Alexas plan to find out our defences and send them back to Brian.
