The Walking Dead Clementine X Male Reader

Chapter 57: The Search

You and Clem sit next to each other, leaned against a brick wall. Clem knows that you don't like to talk about your cancer, so she understands how hard it is for you.

Jane walks around the corner.

Jane: Oh, hey.

Clem: Hey.

Jane: You guys alright?

You shake your head.

Jane: Look, I don't wanna gloss over that whole conversation, but everyone thinks that we need to find the others; bring them back here.

Clem: What do you need from us?

Jane: We should scout ahead.

You stand up.

You: What are we waitin' for?

Clem stands up.

Clem: I don't think you should be going.

You: I'm fine.

Jane: We need all the help we can get, Clem.

Clem looks at you, worried.

You: Hey...it's like you said; we're a team.

Clem smiles.

Jane: Alright, then. Let's get goin'.

You all walk into the forest. You make it to a trail and you talk on the way.

Jane: Look, I'm gonna level with you. You should know that finding your friends...that's a shot in the dark.

Clem: I don't know about that. We shouldn't give up before we've even looked.

You: Agreed.

Jane: I wanted to talk to you both, away from them. You two wouldn't have made it this far if you weren't smart, but I still...I just gotta warn you guys.

You all stop walking.

Jane: That group is cracking. I've seen it before. And, well...a lotta times, it's better to be on your own.

Jane continues to walk, so you both follow her

Jane: I know you both see what I'm talking about. You don't want to be here when they start...turning on each other. Turning on you.

Clem: These are good people. We help each other. I can't leave that.

Jane: You'd be surprised. How much help is Kenny gonna be? What he's going through...he's more of a liability than anything.

You: Kenny can go fuck himself.

Clem: Y/N!

You: What? I'm not gonna take what he said as "nothing personal."

Jane: Look at Kenny... I don't even know where to begin with what a liability he is... And Rebecca's "situation" is not making things better back there. You get enough broken people together... And all you're gonna get are broken decisions.

Clem: How can you get along without trusting anyone?

Jane: That's exactly how I get along.

You make it to a rusty, broken down car.

Jane: For what it's worth, I like most of the people in your crew...but groups fall apart. People get killed.

Jane checks the car. You and Clem walk towards the car.

You: Then why did you bring us with you?

Jane: I'm just trying to give you two the tools you need to make it.
