Shattered|| a Carl grimes fan fiction

Chapter 6

Carrisa POV

5 days later

I haven't been able to visit Emma for the past few days because my while city has been in lockdown. The reason for that is that the dead are coming back to life and are walking the streets.

----Next day---

I've tried to get out to see Emma but the walkers have been swarming by my house. My parents decided a few days ago to go to Texas for a " get away " so now I'm ALONE.

My dad is a hunter so I went into our gun cage and grabbed a rifle and a few knives.
As I walk to the living room I realize that I'm starving. I grab the bread, peanut butter and jam. I took out 2 slices of whole wheat bread and then I opened the peanut butter and spread it all over. It ends up being like 1 inch think though because I LOVE PEANUT BUTTER. When I was a kid I always had peanut butter and banana and id get in trouble for eating to much peanut butter. I wasn't paying attention and I flung the jam ALL OVER MY FRICKEN FACE. " UGH!!" I screamed. " can't I do anything right??" ugh. I'll just calm down before I break something or attract those stupid walker things.
Now, I'm stuck with the hardest decision yet : to rescue Emma, or to find Carl..
I don't know if Emma is even alive. But I have to try. That's what she would want me to do.

After a long time thinking I decide what to do. I have to rescue my friend first and then find Carl. Who even knows if it hit where he is.

20 min later.

After I got all I need in a small backpack : Mockingjay ( I love reading ), two walkie talkies, some canned food, fruit and my phone. But who knows how long that will last.
I was about to walk out the door when I realized that I didn't leave a note for my parents if they come back.
So, I just scribbled a quick note on the paper and left. The note said:

Dear mom and dad,
The world the last few days has been terrible. I've decided to go on my own to find Emma and Carl. I couldn't wait. I just had to know if they were okay or not. I've left one of my walkie talkies so you can talk to me if you ever come back. Chanel 4. I hope you guys will be okay with out me.
I promise I will turn this walkie talkie on every morning at dawn.

I love you guys so much.
Be safe.

Love Carrisa.

Those last few lines killed me. I started crying. But I told myself to get it together. You not 12 anymore.
And then I left. My childhood behind. My family. My friends.
All gone...

How was that?

Stay safe
