"Gabe? Gabe,is that you?!" Clementine's voice said.

Gabe shook his head and raised it off the ground. He saw Clem looking down at him from a few feet away,with worry and hope on her face.

"Clem?" Gabe said smiling and spitting grass out of his mouth.

"Gabe!" She ran up to him,as he got to his knees, and pulled him into a hug.

Gabe breathed a sigh of relief, "You did it Gabe! You did it! You fucking saved her!"

"You came back!" She said tears in her eyes as she pulled away.

"Yeah...I did, I had to save you, Clem." Gabe said grabbing her hand. His heart was racing.

She looked at his hand holding hers and gave a little laugh, "Thanks!" She said.

Suddenly Gabe heard a rifle fire and Clem dropped dead with a bullet in her head.

"NOOOOOOOOO!" Gabe yelled,falling to his knees and quickly turning her onto her back, hoping wildly it was somehow just a graze.

To his horror Clementine had turned into Mariana who looked at him with dead eyes. "No,No! This is wrong!" Gabe said crawling backwards.

Mariana turned into a dying Kate, "Gabe..." She coughed, "Gabe...where were you? I-I needed you, Gabe."

"I-I'm sorry Kate, I-I-" Gabe choked up, "This isn't real,this isn't real!" Gabe told himself, but it didn't do anything.

Kate turned into Javi with blood gushing from his neck, "Gabe.....buddy....I'm sorry." Javi said crying.

"No, I'm sorry. I s-shouldn't of left you!" Gabe said his voice breaking.

David came running from behind Gabe, "No Javi! No!" David said falling to his knees beside Javi.

"Brother...." Javi choked gripping David's arm one last time as he breathed his last.

David breathed deeply before turning to Gabe. "This....is your fault!" David said standing before Gabe.

"I-I tried-" Gabe stammered in horror.

"You tried?! You fucking tried?!" David said angrily.

Gabe stumbled to his feet,backing away from David, " Face it Gabe." Said David but it wasn't just David. Gabe could hear Clem's,Mari's,Kate's and Javi's voices behind his. "You can't save anyone. You killed all of us!"

Gabe spun around and saw them approaching him in a circle. There was nowhere to run. "Please.... I never meant for any of you to die!" Gabe begged.

He turned to Kate who looked at him with disgust, "I-I was trying to do the right thing, I thought I could-"

"The right thing?", Kate said with the other's voices behind hers, "You left me,your stepmother who loved you,to run away with your deserting father? You killed me with your stupid thinking. I'm ashamed to have you as my nephew." She hissed.

Gabe felt like his heart had a hole put in it as he turned to Mariana, a never before seen look of hatred on her face, " I didn't know what was going to happen! I didn't want you to-"

"I loved you,Gabe and how did you repay me?" Mari said her voice on top of the others now, " With a bullet in my head? Couldn't you just take a look around to spot the armed men in the woods? Your laziness cost me my life. I can't believe I loved you." She looked away from Gabe. Gabe staggered back.
