Jessamine Dixon lives in the apocalypse

Some Guy

The truck thought they had the jump on us. They didn't know we were there. But they were in for a surprise.

Daryl was driving the bike and I was sitting next to Rick in the Jeep. We were behind Daryl and he was going as fast as he could.

The rifle was hanging by my side and we just needed to get close enough to them.

"They know we're here!" I yelled and grabbed the gun. I pulled it so it was against my ribs and Daryl tried to shoot at them.

They dropped the hatch and the thing that could tear us apart was aimed right at us. They shot at Daryl but he went into the ditch and I would only have to hope they didn't shoot his limbs off.

Rick kept driving and he was leaning to the side.

"It's now or never!" I yelled and brought the rifle up to my eye.

Rick was veering to the each side of the road over and over again and they were still shooting at us.

The rifle was still in my hands it just made it harder. Rick started falling behind but the man driving the truck in front of us started veering.

The man shooting at us fell over and I looked at Rick.

"You need to get bumper to bumper!" I demanded and stood up in the seat. Rick was veering from the walkers too and I held onto the top of the windshield.

The man was up again and I sat down as he started shooting again. I sat on the seat and waited.

I put the rifle to my eye and leaned to the side just a little bit so I wouldn't be shooting the glass, but it could also take my head off.

I shot the man but something got hit on the Jeep and Rick started going to the side.

"Get next to it!" I yelled and Daryl finished the man off. Rick started pulling up to the side of the truck and I stood up in the window again. I sat down where the window would come up from and held the gun up. 

The man in front of us was going the opposite way and I held onto the top of the windshield. Rick got next to the truck and I climbed to the back.

I jumped into the truck and held onto the bars above. 

Rick jumped into the passenger seat and left the Jeep. The man got out a gun and Rick had it. I leaned over to the driver side and watched Rick.

Rick stabbed the man in the front and I grabbed him by the ponytail. I slammed his head into the dashboard and had to bend down so I didn't hit my head on the top.

Rick had the wheel and I kept the man's head there.

We were veering down the road but Rick looked at me and we pushed the man out of the truck. Rick hopped into the driver seat and I grabbed onto the bars on the back.

We hit the rail and started going down the side.

"Rick!" I yelled and held onto the bars and hard as I could. The truck kept going down and it I realized we were on a hill.

"Rick, we gotta go!" I yelled and jumped from the truck.

We were walking out and we saw Daryl staring at the car and he looked like he was about to lose it.

"Hey." Rick said and Daryl looked down at the bushes we were climbing up. Daryl pulled me up and Rick was further behind me.

Daryl pulled me into a hug and was taking shallow breaths.

"Jee, did you think something happened?" I asked sarcastically and he looked at me like he was going to cry.

"Hey, we're fine. We're okay. We're the ones that get to live, they didn't." I said and I looked behind me to see Rick.

Daryl helped him up and I started dragging myself up the rest of the hill.

"I'm gonna go get my bike." I told them and looked back to see them staring at the truck at the way bottom of the hill. 

They started walking down the hill and I sat down on the hill.

"I need a moment. Just give me a--you know you guys got that." I told them and laid down on my back.

They had me doped up on medication this entire time. I also had to lie whenever I felt something for the days before we started this. There was something wrong with my ribs, lungs, and probably everything else. I should not have survived that fall, but here I was fighting for our lives. The only thing that kept me from dying was the meds, otherwise I should be dead right now. I probably would be by the end of this.
