Chapter 3: Nightmare

Y/n's POV:

I walked out of the Mess hall without letting Max get another word out, I decide to find Nurf since he took my weapons the last place I saw him was at the gates so he must be still there, I headed in the direction from where we came.

After a minute I spotted him near the gates so I walked up to him, he notices me coming towards him. "Did he say you have to leave?" He asked.

"No, he said I can stay for the night and leave in the morning." I replied to his question. "Lucky he didn't shoot you right there and then, anyways want do you what?" He asks.

"I just want to know where my weapons are so I can grab them in the morning." Answered honestly. He thought for a moment before saying "They're in that shad next to the Mess hall on the left side." He pointed to a small building next to the Mess hall.

"Why did you flat out tell me?" I asked confused on why he told me. "Because you asked me honestly instead of trying to lie and I hate liars, plus you seem ok you don't look like the type of person who steals from others." He said.

"Only raiders." I said. "Damn right!." He said playfully.

"Well, Thanks Nurf." I thanked him and waved him goodbye and started walking to the small building. "You're welcome!" He exclaims in a happy tone from behind.

I was now at the door of the shad, pulled open the door and damn it was dark as shit but I managed to find the light switch, when the lights bright up the room I was stunned for a moment before walking in amazed by their weapon stock. "Woah! Is that a G3A3! And a MSG 90 over there! *Gasp* they even have a SA80!" I look from gun to gun excitement rising up, I haven't been this excited in years.

"For an outsider you sure know your guns." A voice said from nowhere which made me jump a little, I turn towards the door seeing Max leaning on the door frames. "And so what if I know my guns you probably know them well." I said.

"Maybe but you probably know more than I do."

"I doubt it."

"Ok, what can you tell me about that gun." He pointed one of the guns on the wall. "That's a AK 47, it belongs in the assault rifles family, its rate of fire is 500 rounds/min and its range is 300 meters." I said remembering the information.

"See, you know more about guns than anybody here including me. I didn't know which assault rifle it was until you told me and by what Nikki and Neil told me, your skills in a battle with walkers are higher than anybody here." He said. Is he complimenting me?

"Wow, never knew the jackass boss can complement outsiders." I said with a smug on my face. "Shut up, anyways your weapons are right by the door." He said. I looked to where he said and my weapons are there, I walk over to them and pick up my bow.

"Archery much?" He asked

"Ever since I was little." I replied analysing my bow. "So, are you here to keep an eye on me or something?" I asked him, looking up from my bow to him.

"Actually, I'm going to show you where you're staying tonight." He replied walking out of the building. I put my bow back down and follow after him finally catching up to him, we walked in silence all the way there he showed me the tent that I'll be staying for the night, he said he will send someone to come and get me when it's time for dinner I thanked him and went inside the tent it is small but at least there's a bed, I lay on the going into my train of thoughts until someone comes get me for dinner.

------------- Time skip to after dinner coz too lazy ---------------

At dinner in the Mess hall I meet everyone who live here at the so called 'base' they did give me the stink eye for a while but surpassed that once they heard what happened to Nerris and seeing Nurf being nice to me. I also meet the other adult's the QM as a hook for a hand which creeped me out a bit and Gwen seem ok and then there is David.... how can someone be so happy and loud in this world since it's the end, does he even realize it? I asked Max of how he isn't dead yet? He just shrugged and said life works in strange ways, so that's, that.
