My name is Raven , it's been 8 years since the break out I've been alone ever since .... after the first week ...... when my dad and his gang abounded me .... I've been surviving by myself ever since , until one day I'm caught and trapped by Walkers...
I woke up to the smell of bacon I hadn't smelled bacon in forever that's when I noticed Carl wasn't next to me so I quickly changed my clothes to the folded pile that was laid out on my cot

before rushing downstairs and into the kitchen where I saw my cowboy cooking
" Good morning " he called out once he noticed I was standing by the counter
" morning and thank you " I replied as he handed me a cup of coffee with 2 spoonfuls of sugar and 1/4 a cup of goat milk just how I like it
" no problem I was hoping you'd stay asleep so I could do breakfast in bed but this works to " he said smiling down at me before hurrying to flip his beginning to burn waffle causing me to chuckle a little
" So how's your goat milk sugar coffee " he softly asked while placing the waffle of a plate
" There's nothing better then hilltop goat milk " I chuckled as Carl added another waffle to the plate with the slightly burnt one before sliding it over to me
" Thank you for making breakfast by the way " I said just as Rick came walking down he grabbed a cup of coffee and a piece of bacon before Carl placed some on my plate
" so Carl I was thinking you should go on a run with me just you and me " Rick said while sitting next to me
" umm sure " he slowly replied before going back to dishing out breakfast
( Carl's view )
I was quickly eating my share of breakfast while Raven was writing in a thick notebook
" what's that " I asked motioning to her book while still eating my breakfast
" oh its just my journal I write down anything I think would be important to remember or i want to remember " when she got up and went to put her journal up a picture fell out I picked it up before she could when I looked at up her eyes had gotten wide with fear as she met my eyes
When I looked down at the picture I knew why she was scared there stood a younger Negan , with a beautiful thin blonde woman and a little girl who looked like a little version of Raven just not as grown up looking with a chocolate lab puppy
" who's that " I asked pointing at the blonde I was surprisingly not mad at the fact she was Negan's daughter I mean who cares he thinks she's dead after all
" that's my mother " Raven said in a hurt almost ready to cry tone
" what was her name " I asked curiously while putting my plate in the sink
" Lucille " she said making me realize something about Negan I had never realized he had cared for someone he had loved someone besides himself at one point in his life

Soon Carl hugged and kissed me goodbye before slipping off towards the gates as I went to the garden where I spent most of the morning early afternoon weeding and planting seeds
I had turned to get the water hose just in time to see Enid swinging a shovel nailing me right in the head knocking me on my side everything became a hazy blur as i tried to get back up I was hit again and suddenly everything went black
when I finally woke up and had gained the strength to open my eyes I saw that I was tied to a tree by a house outside the wall's of Alexandria as I looked around vi saw Enid walk out of the house holding a knife in one hand and a kitchen timer in the other
" this is what you get for stealing Carl from me , he was supposed to love me not you ...not some poor runt from off the road " Enid spit out in anger her eyes were almost pure black she moved her hand quickly cutting my collar bone area with her knife
" please Enid think this through this isn't you " I tried to calmly say in hopes to calm her down but it was all a failed attempt After a few more cuts and being stabbed once she left leaving the timer going off at my feet and a fire heading my way saying " if the fire doesn't kill you the walkers will " she said with a smirk that would send shivers down anyone's spine
I could see the walkers heading my way I cried out in agony and desperation that someone maybe even my cowboy would come save me as the flames roared higher and the walkers groaned louder I began to cry mainly cause the smoke was burning my eyes it became harder to call out it seemed like the smoke was smothering my voice
I watched as a walker walked threw the flames her jaws chomping while her shirt caught fire just as I let out a raspy call for help just as I was about to give up a gun went off and the walker fell down I saw Carl lowering his gun he was gonna run towards me when his dad grabbed his arm and stopped him I bareley heard him say " son it's to late the flames are attracting more walkers then we can handle a flash of disappointment or anger appeared across Carl's face when suddenly he jerked his arm free and ran into the flames to find me a bleeding coughing mess
( Carl's view )
As I patted down my shirt to kill any embers I could see Raven barely holding on that's when I saw it Enid's timer at Raven's feet I tossed it out towards my dad before cutting Raven free from the rope she almost fell into the fire , if I hadn't of caught her she would of
I picked her up bridal style ignoring my dad's yells for me to leave her but I didn't listen to him I just ran as fast as I could through the roaring flames I didn't even stop not with the mini herd of wakers
" is ...she was all my dad asked
" no .... She's just really hurt ... I know who did this to her " was I could say between gasps for air before we hid in a empty house waiting for the walkers to pass I quickly opened my first aid from my bag and began to clean the stab wound with it being her main source of blood lost
