Chapter 32

So hello guys, here is another chapter.

This chapter again starts to make the story interesting. I had to look up some parts on what had the characters said because I don't remember what the people say, I'm sorry.

But this chapter turned out good and I hope you all liked it.

Stay tuned for the next chapter.!!!

*Carl's P.O.V*

The fact that Negan is here makes everything more troublesome.

I don't even have any words on what to do but we all are gonna have to work together.

My dad isn't here and I have Ali, Michonne, Rosita and a bunch of other Alexandrians here.

I know what I have to do.

I started getting supplies ready. I could just constantly hear Negan say that we have to apologize and whoever had the least worse apology will die.

"What do we have to do?" Michonne asked.

"We just have to survive tonight. This is my show, you said it." I told her.

"Carl's right." Rosita said.

"What do I do?" Ali asked looking at me.

I just stared looking at her and I didn't know what to do.

"Go with Michonne." I said.

Ali didn't know what to say because I know on the look on her face that she looked worried.

"But what about you? Wha are you gonna do? I can't leave you." She said begging me and I had to grab her hand to make sure that she's okay.

"Hey, I'll be fine. Everything will be fine. I'll handle this and make sure everything is okay." I assured her.

"I believe in you." She said and then she kissed me.

I kissed her back and then pulled away.

"I'll see you soon." I said.

She nodded and then went with Michonne.

Then I got ready to handle business with Negan.

Negan was calling for my dad and I climbed up on ladder and onto the little balcony that was there.

"He's not home." I said once I was on top.

"Holy shit. Everybody hold your fire, it's Carl." Negan said.

"Look at you, answering the door like a big boy." He said.

I so badly wanted to roll my eyes.

"I'm so proud. Daddy's not home, huh?" He asked.

I just continued to glare at him.

"Families are here, kids. My little sister." I said.

"Well that just breaks my heart." He said.

I can't tell if he's being sincere or not.

"There's kids at sanctuary. You must've seen them."

"We even had a baby at one of the outposts, I wonder what happened to her." He added.

"None of this shits fair kid."

Silence.

"Hell you know that. You had to kill your own mom."

He just went there.

"That is screwed up."

I just didn't say anything and I would let him run his mouth and then I'll run mine.

"Bad stuff happens but we can figure this out. We can stop this-" I started to say but he cut me off.

"Now you wanna talk?" Negan asked.

"Your dad, he gave my people a choice but not me."

"Now we're gonna need a new understanding. Apologies, punishment-" he started to say but now it was my turn to cut him off.

"Kill me." I said.

He seemed to be taken back at what I said.

"What did you say?" He asked.

"If you have to kill someone, if there has to be punishment, kill me." I said serious.

"I'm serious." I added.

"What about Ali?" He asked.

"I rather have myself die before her. Between her and me, she deserves to live more. I love her and I would always tell her. Kill me." I said.

"You wan to die?"

"No, I don't. But I will. It's gonna happen." I said.

"And if me dying could stop this, it can make things different. For us, for you, for those other kids. I mean, was this the plan? Was it suppose to be this way? Is this who you wanted to be?" I asked.

After I said that, I ran off when I heard noises from cars.

"Son of a bitch, Carl. Was that a play? I thought we were having a moment you little asshole." I heard him yell.

"Bombs away." I heard and then as I was walking away I heard some explosions.

I had to work quick or else nothing will work.

So I begin to work as fast as I can. I had these smoke bombs that will like cause them to not see and it will cause a distraction. It will help my fellow people go to the place where I told them to go to be safe.

As I was setting one of the smoke bombs, I was near a house and then it exploded.

I stopped to the ground and I had to lay still. Not because of the fact of it happening, because I was already in pain.

It's so hard.

After a few minutes, I got up and continued working through what was happening and passing through every explosion that was happening.

I have to go to the place where everyone is. So that I can be safe.

Everything will be okay.

*Ali's P.O.V*

"So what are we doing?" I asked Michonne.

"Finding Rick. I'm sure he's here by now." She said and I just nodded.

We are hoping to find Rick, so that we can go find Carl and the rest of the people.

It wasn't that long until Rick was walking up to us.

"Hey, where's Carl?" He asked.

"He said that there was a sewer that we can go. That's where everyone is." I said.

"Let's go there." Rick said.

So we dodged everything that was happening and we got to the sewer where everyone else is.

We got there and everyone looked all sad and gloomy.

Why do they look like they seen a ghost?

Everyone there was giving us sad looks and I was just so confused. What the hell happened?

We started to walk and we saw Carl sitting down near the end of the sewer and walked towards him.

He looks weak and I start to get worried.

Did something hit him when he was taking care of Negan?

We got to Carl and just got on our knees in front of him. Carl slowly looked at all three of us.

Something is definitely wrong.

"That's how it happened." Carl said.

I didn't understand what he was saying until he did something. He slowly lifted his shirt and then took off a bandage to reveal something I never thought he would have.

A walker bite.

My boyfriend got bit.

Tears are slowly coming and that was when I knew, Carl was in his last moments of life.
