Violetta Ravenwood has lived the last seven years striving to be the best version of herself she could be in honor of her dad's memory. At 25 she's now a spinal surgeon in one of the country's best hospitals. It was supposed to be a night of celebr...
They gathered supplies and clothes for the Jones while waiting on Addy and her family before leaving. Once the twins were settled with Violet in the back seat Shane and Rick took point, the Lings behind them in their 2009 Tiffin Allegro 32 followed by the Jones' family in Shane's '06 Jeep Liberty. Dean took up the rear with Carl in his RV as they made their way towards Atlanta.
With Cordelia
That Night, Just Outside Atlanta
"Shit." she mumbled hitting the steering wheel.
"What is it?" Carol looked over at her from her right.
"We're still to close to the city. Everyone is trying to get to that refugee center and crowding the streets. We should be clear once we reach the highway."
"Tell me again why we're taking the girls to the quarry instead of the center?"
"Just one of those things get into the center and it's game over for everyone. Hell just think about it, Carol. If Sophia was bit could you just leave her? If you still had hope for a cure, it you didn't know? I know I couldn't."
"If I hadn't seen one of those things up close and actually though it was a sickness? Yea, I'd hide the bite. Lets get out of here, turn right on the next block." Cordelia glances at her, an eyebrow raised. "Shortcut." As they speed along the highway out of Atlanta they see the cars lined to get into the city. "All those people, they're heading right into a deathtrap." Once a few miles out they slow down. Jets fly over overhead and than they feel just as much as they hear something similar to lightning striking coming from the city, moments later. They both share a look before turning around.
"Stay here!/Stay in the car!" They get out and watch, with others that were heading into the city as Atlanta is bombed.
~Violet's POV~
When we arrived at the quarry Cordelia had yet to arrive. As more time passed I became more nervous and I could tell it was affecting the others. Luckily, all 5 of the kids had already crashed on the sofa after watching Lion King. "Come on, we'll take the jeep real quick see if we can't find her on the highway. It'll make you feel better than just walking back and forth here. Rick'll be fine with the boys and if anything the others are here too." Shane said and I nodded. Dean and I shared a look.
"I'll hold things down here. Go, you need it more than I do." He said.
"You two come back safe." Jenny called to me after I came back out from letting Rick know what was going on, while Morgan passed the keys to Shane. We were maybe a mile or 2 outside of Atlanta when we got out of the car to look for my sister and Carol in the pile up, having parked it on the road leading out as we heard choppers above us.
A/N: For Video. Lori is obviously not present so imagine Violet taking her place.
Begin at 2:46.
After Watching Bombing of Atlanta
"Shane" I gasped as he held me in his arms. It was moments later after we walked back towards the highway that I heard her voice from just ahead of us. "Cordelia? Cordelia!" I ran to her once she turned around and we gripped onto each other.
"We're supposed to be meeting at the quarry. We're agreed we'd meet at the quarry. Wait a couple hours then go looking." She said after pulling back
"We did. We've been waiting on you for hours. Hey Carol." I pulled her into a hug as Shane hugged Cor.
"It's good to see you, Violet." She smiled at me
"Aunt Vi. Hazel, Sophia! It's Aunt Vi and Uncle Shane!" I went to the car to give them both kisses, happy they were all safe.
I listened as Shane was approached and spoken to by an older man that had noticed his uniform. And while Carol, Cordelia and I watched the girl, we kept an eye out for any walker or person that might try to surprise us. We were all ready to defend ourselves and our family guns hidden just out of sight but easily accessible nonetheless.
Minutes later Shane had managed to calm a group of people down and even tell them that we were heading back out to the quarry we had made camp at, inviting them along. He told them there was safety in numbers and soon enough a number of them were getting in their cars to follow us back.
Once Back at the Quarry
Dean's POV
It was just past 11 pm when I saw headlights coming up the road to the clearing. I grabbed my rifle and took aim as I let out a long whistle signaling the others to be ready. I could see Rick had opened the one of the few windows that opened on the tiny house, colt in hand facing the entrance. Morgan came up the ladder I dropped for him and settled beside me while his family was safe inside. Sun Mei had her gun and Shin his bow.
The headlights flashed once, twice, and then stayed on before turning off completely and turning back on. Shane. I raised my hand silently telling them all to stand down. Car after car pulled in after his but the only other one I cared for was the Chevy Silverado Black Ops attached to the RV I'd helped design. The girls. I climbed down and made my way to them pulling Cordelia then Carol into a hug. People started exiting their cars looking around some in fascination and others in disgust. Shane moved to handle the crowd.
"Let's all settle in our vehicles for tonight. We'll introduce ourselves in the morning."
"Dean!" I turned around only for a blonde head of hair to collide into me. Roses and vanilla.
"Amy." I wrapped my arms around her, lifting her and she wrapped her legs around my waist as I kissed her.
