「 chapter 8 」
_______________

I shove my things into the duffel bag I was given. My blankets, pillow, sheets and some spare clothes.
I zip it up and grab my backpack, I leave the empty room after once last look and head outside to the cars.

As I walk towards one of the cars, I see Rick's face in the corner of my eye. He looked like he wanted to talk to me, but I don't want to. I've been avoiding him, I'm too annoyed. After being told the Governor was planning an attack on us, I can't help but wonder why Rick didn't kill him earlier. He was in the same room as him, if he's that dangerous, why didn't he do it?

He chases after me quickly. "Ellie," His hand latches around my arm, but I pull away without a word and keep on walking, he gets the message and leaves me alone, for now.

Beth looks at me as I come up to her, I hand her my bags and she packs them into the boot of the car for me. I notice she also gives me a look, probably wondering why I'm being like this. I just ignore her and walk away.

Not long later, Rick hunted me down again.

"Put it on." He holds out some kind of vest, it looked rock hard. I think I've seen soldiers wear these.

"Why?" I ask.
Shit, what the hell were we about to face?

"Don't argue, just put it on." He repeats with a sterner tone, I sigh and take it from him. I slide it over my head and it sits on top of my hoodie.

"What's this for, Rick?" I ask with a tired tone.

"Well, I don't know if he has the heart to shoot a kid, but I'm not takin' any chances. Some of these were on some dead ones wearing military suits when we came to the prison." He taps the shoulder part, making a firm tapping noise. It really was rock hard.

I raise an eyebrow.

"They're coming!" We hear Glenn yell from a distance and people run in all directions to their positions, my heart skips a beat.

"Alright, go. Go!" Rick turns around and rushes me outside with Beth and Hershel. Our position was in the woods, behind a large rock. We got the best view, we could see the whole prison grounds.

"Be safe." Rick says before I turn and run with the two. We head through the bushes and trees until we're at the rock. I load my gun and watch over the top of it, getting nervous.

"Military cars? Jesus." I mumble as we watch two large cars drive up the gravel towards the prison gates.

The two guard towers out the front then blow up, making me swear quietly to Beth beside me, she was just as scared as I was. All I could think about was how much infected will be attracted to the sound.
