Apocalyptic Love

Alone Again- Chapter 5

Leslie and Carl are learning how to survive on their own. It's been weeks. Leslie says "When will we find them again?" Carl says "Maybe soon..." Leslie says "We need to find them soon..." Sophia searching the area for walkers says "There are no walkers. We also need to find them quickly. I don't know if we can survive long. We are only a couple of 9 year olds..." Leslie says "Yeah, we have been searching everywhere but we can't find anyone. It's like they all died when we got attacked, or maybe they are in places we haven't searched..." Carl says "We have to stay positive, they are out there and I know it." Leslie says "Yeah, I know, just like my parents are out there too..." Carl says taking out his knife "Alright, Leslie you stay here with the camp we have set up, me and Sophia will go and scavenge for any supplies." Leslie says "Why can't I go with you guys?" Sophia says "Because I need to learn how to fight off walkers. You already know how to." Leslie says "Yeah..." Carl says "Don't worry, we will be back, Les." He hugs Leslie tight and then leaves with Sophia, holding her hand. Sophia follows Carl. Leslie stays sitting down on the floor, staring down. Leslie says "I wanted to go...why does Sophia have to go? She is good at watching the camp, and she is getting better at fighting off walkers, I wanna go scavenging with Carl...we are best friends, not Sophia..."

With Sophia and Carl. Sophia is following Carl, crouching down. Carl is searching every corner to make sure no people are around and no walkers. Carl and Sophia go into a store, an abandoned one. They look around for supplies, all they get is canned food and medicine. Looks like who ever scouted the place before needed all the water. Carl turns to Sophia and nods at her, signaling that it's time to leave the store. As they leave the store they see some guys fighting. They look like two brothers. Carl takes a closer look and they are the people who were at their camp, the one that got destroyed by all the walkers. Carl had a feeling that they wouldn't recognize him so he and Sophia ran away. They ran straight back to the little camp set up they have. Carl breathing heavily and Sophia trying to catch her breath. Leslie looks at them and says "Your back so soon?" Carl shakes his head no. "We were supposed to be back in about an hour or two, but we saw the two brothers that were at our camp, and they were fighting! We don't really talk to them so we thought they would probably chase after us here! So we ran away before they can spot us!" Then there are gunshots. Sounds like a pistol. Carl says "Start packing up anything important we may need, we are going to scavenge the rest of that place and be on our way." Leslie and Sophia start packing up while Carl covers them, making sure no walkers get near them. They then leave back to where they were scavenging, they barely find any other supplies. They do find a huge street where a bunch of cars are depended together. Leslie thinks to herself maybe this all happened when the walkers started to come. Carl says "These cars must have all been scavenged. They look empty, either empty or have walkers inside of them, or even dead people." Sophia looks around "Those Guys we saw earlier aren't here." Carl says "We heard gunshots, I hope they didn't hurt each other, or attract any walkers." Sophia says "Yeah."
Some groans start coming closer to where they are, doesn't sound like normal people. Leslie says "Walkers!" She hides under a car. Carl hides with her and Sophia goes under another car. Leslie signs to Sophia to keep her mouth closed. Sophia nods. Carl holds Leslie's hand tight. The walkers limp through, not noticing that anyone is under the cars. Sophia puts her hands over her mouth to keep quiet. Leslie stares at the walker's feet. Carl looks to see how many more could be coming, Doesn't seem like too many walkers are passing through, just about 50 or less. When they all pass by, they still stay underneath the cars, until they are officially gone. Then they all crawl out. Sophia brushes off any dirt that may be on her. Leslie and Carl do the same. Carl fixes his hair, and Leslie does the same thing. Sophia shakes her head fast causing dirt to fly out her hair. Leslie and Carl laugh. It's shocking how the group hasn't found them yet. No adults, just a couple of 9 year olds surviving on their own. That's something you don't see everyday. These kids are true survivors.

THE END
It took me awhile to write this because I have no ideas on what to do since I don't have much memory of the walking dead, I can still remember a lot of the places they went to and can make my own ideas out of it, but next chapter, I'm going to make them 11. Yes, they have been surviving out on their own for about a year because their birthdays are gonna pass soon, and then next year they become 11. So Carl's appearance is gonna change a bit, so is Leslie and so is Sophia. Sorry for any grammar mistakes if there are any, stay lovely my loveliesss!!
