The Walking Dead Clementine X Male Reader

Chapter 155: We Need Help

You're walking through the woods. You decide that you don't need your glasses right now, so you take them off and you take your backpack off your back. You unzip your bag to see your old One Eyed Survivor outfit. You sigh. You put the glasses inside and you put the backpack back on your back.

A/N: I was very close to making a tongue twister just then.

You continue to walk through the forest.

You: Now...if I was a guy who wore walker skin and walked through herds...where would I be?

You see a small herd of walkers. You take cover behind a tree and you take out Retribution.

You sneak over to a fallen log and you take cover. The walkers seem to have invaded a campsite.

You hear someone clear their throat, making you stand up and swiftly aim the end of Retribution at the person. It's James. You lower Retribution.

You whisper: James?

He puts his finger to his lips. You put Retribution on your back. You notice a bandage on his arm.

You whisper: You're hurt.

You both take cover behind the log.

You whisper: Did the raiders do this?

James whisper: It looked like they...had people from your school. Why are you here?

You whisper: Those people you saw, we're going to save them. But to do that, we need your help moving some walkers.

James whisper: I could...maybe help, but... My mask is still in the camp. Inside my bag. I can't pass through a herd without it.

You whisper: Okay. Then let's go get it.

James whisper: Please, I just...I just ask that you don't kill them. The walkers. If you distract them, I can sneak over and find my mask.

You look down and you sigh.

You whisper: I--I can try...but it's not always that easy.

James whisper: That's all I ask from you. Just to try.

James sneaks away.

You jump over the logs and you run over to a group of walkers. You see a bottle on the ground and you throw it. Almost walkers get attracted over to the noise, but two see you and decide that you're more interesting.

You: Fuck.

You run up to one of the walkers and you kick them to the ground, but the other one grabs ahold of you and brings you to the ground.

James' POV
You're searching through your stuff, trying to find your mask. You look behind you to see Y/N struggling with a walker.

He looks like he's trying to activate his blade from his wrist.

James: You don't have to kill them!

He listens to you and tries pushing harder, but he eventually has no choice but to activate his hidden blade and kill the walker.

Your POV
*SULK!*

The walker falls over. The other one that you kicked down gets on top of you, so you kill that one as well.

*SULK!*
You push the walker off of you. You're panting. You stand up. James walks over to you.

James: Are you okay?

You look at the walkers, then back at James.

You: ...Yeah.

You walk up to him and you put your hands on your knees, out of breath.

You: I'm sorry... I tried distracting all of them, but those two would've killed me.

James: No, I...I understand. Thank you for trying.

You nod. You stand up straight once you've caught your breath.

You: Look, I need those walkers, man. Those guys have my friends, and we need to get them back... Please help us...

James looks down for a few seconds. He looks back up at you.

James: I need you to do something for me. I need to know for sure that you did everything in your power not to kill those walkers... Then we'll see.

You nod.

You: I'll do whatever you need to get those walkers.

He nods.

James: Then, let's not waste time. Follow.

You start following James to where ever the hell he needs your help.
