All I could do was watch.The heat of the flames touching my skin but I didn't bother to move back.The flames danced in my eyes and 10k pulled me closer to him.But I didn't really notice his touch and I didn't really notice that Doc had said some words

I didn't get why this hit me as hard as it did.Maybe because I was there and basically gave birth to her.Maybe because it was back when times were simpler.Maybe because,even though she grew with each bite,she was technically still a kid

I felt a tug on my hand and realized that 10k was tugging me away because it was attracting Z's.Maybe the heat was attracting them or maybe they knew that Lucy had died.10k pulled me along as I looked back and seen Z's surrounding the fire

We stopped in the middle of the road.But my mind didn't seem to register that the car had stopped until 10k had touched my shoulder

"Are you okay"

"Uh Yeah,I'm just still a little sad I guess"The smile I gave him wasn't real

"If you wanna take,you know im here"He said and touched my leg

"Yeah,yeah.I know,I don't know why I'm so upset.I guess just watching someone that I brought into this world and just she deserved better I guess"Maybe that was the real case of my sadness.Maybe that was the truth,some of the truth

"It'll Be Okay"He said and kissed my head.I looked ahead and seen Murphy angrily beat down and kill a Z

We all knew he was having issues.His daughter died in his arms and he couldn't stop it.I guess what they say is true,out living your child is the most horrible thing to happen to a parent.

"Stop,stop"I looked around me when I heard the voice

"Keep going"Warren said but a lady kept on screaming

"What?No.Stop the car"Murphy said.Oh,how the tables have turned.The car pulled to a stop near a Ferris wheel and an old building

"Aren't you the one who always says,never get out the boat"I asked

"I'm getting out of the boat. I'm killing some bad guys"He replied and Warren tried tried to stop him but without any glance at her,he ignored what she said and kept in walking.I gave 10k a knowing look as we hopped out of the truck and towards a Ferris wheel

"Well what in the hell do we have here?The worlds saddest carnival"Doc asked

"Mad Z's.Four.No,five"10k observed

"Yeah and a lady on the top"I said once I looked at the top

"Alive or Z"

"Hard to tell.Now I'll tell you,it's not the zombies who make the apocalypse suck,it's the damn people"Doc shook his head in disappointment
