Incendiary: Carl Grimes Love Story

Chapter Fifty : Start To Finish

Maya's pov

The ringing in my ears was the only way I knew I was still alive. That I hadn't been crushed by the large clock tower. I groaned feeling my injuries sting at the sudden contact and opened my eyes to the sound of gun shots. My eyes landed on Carl standing in front of me shooting at something and soon the echoing of snarls had caught my attention.

The horde got in.

" Run !" Carl shouted grabbing my hand and pulling me to my feet. My hearing had returned and I gasped at the increase sound of growls and screams sureounding us." Maya run !"

I grabbing a arrow from my quiver and shot a walker the nearest to me noticing already seeing two hundred walkers enter. They frantically moved around the place either with wood pellet sticking through them or pieces of metal.

" Everyone, get back !" Rick screamed firing rounds into the crowd of walkers." Get into your houses, go !"

I felt Carl's hand on the small of my back and began running down the streets of Alexandria. Every turn we made, walkers followed and I was beginning to believe I had ran in a full circle. I pulled the machete from a near by bin and began slicing the top of walkers heads needing a fast move to get out.

" Rick, you copy ?"

I noticed the radio vibrate against the grass and pulled it out knowing Daryl had spoke from the other side.

" Daryl ! The fences fell ! Alexandria is under attack !"

" Say it again ?"

" We need help !" I shouted when a walker came from my side trying to take a bite at me.

I dropped the walkie and stabbed it in the side of the head before helping Carl with a walker. My eyes wondered back for the walkie only to watch a heavy set walker crush it with it's own foot.

" No !"

" Maya ! Carl !" Michonne called from the side.

I grabbed Carl's hand running over to see she was running with Gabriel, Finnick, Lucas, and Ron. Rick soon joined our side and I noticed he was half carrying Deanna due to her bleeding from the side.

" Good. You're safe." Rick breathed in relief," Now come on !"

I noticed the walkers blocking our way and released Carl's hand stabbing at whatever came our way. Suddenly the walkers crossed our path blocking our way from all ends of the street. I felt Carl's hand wrap around my waist and we both raised our gun to fight when the walkers dropped follow by someone else.

" Come on !" Jessie shouted," I have Judith !"

Rick placed his arm out shoving Carl and I first towards the house. I sprinted towards Jessie's house running through the doors and instantly hearing Judith cry from upstairs no doubt from the growls, debris, and gun fire.

Rick huffed turning to look at Jessie," Put her on the couch !"

" Upstairs ! First room on the left !"

I nodded my head racing up the stairs with Carl and swung the door open seeing Rick and Deanna on our tails. Judith wailed again and I ran to Jessie's room seeing she was in her play crib scared out of her mind at all the noise and screaming.
