I'm done.
i have lasted long enough. But I don't want to keep moving. Breathing. Living. I'm done with this fuck up world. I'm done being on a run every single day. I'm done scavanging. Starving. Running. I'm done with all of it.
I hear some moans not far away from where I am sitting. They are coming, I know, I couldn't care less. I check my gun, 2 bullets. One for me, one for Jake. He seems asleep, peaceful in some way. I need to put a gun in his head before is to late. But it is far more complicated than I though.
I take of my jacket as I take a look on my wound. Messy, bloody. Fuck off, I though. "Don't be a pussy, deal with it", I said to myself. Avoiding any thoughs I pull the trigger, BAM!. Great, now every single of those geeks will come to me. "Clever, Sarah. Let's face it, you have to put a bullet in your brain ASAP." I though. " You have to fucking kill yourself RIGHT NOW!"
Easier said than done.
I'm feeling dizzy too. Jesus, they are coming. I hear the moaning. I stand up and walk to the nearest tree. I climb it, slowly, but i did. I sit down in the tree, putting the gun in my pocket and taking my bow. I see the geeks, around 10 or so. They are almost around Jake. I take an arrow and I shoot them right in the head. I kill them all. I hear a noise on my left, still feeling dizzy from the pain, I turn and I shoot another arrow. I hear yelling, people running. "Jeez, did I just shoot a living person?", I thought as I go down my tree.
- Don't move kiddo, I'll kill ya 'fore ya even realise. - Said the man with a crossbow.
- I….I...I'm sorry … I don't want any trouble…
- Oh yeah? so why did you shoot my son? .- said the other man, he is helping a boy getting up .- I'm gonna fucking kill you!
- DAD! .- shouted the boy.- I'm fine!
- Look...I'm sorry, ok? I was just killing those geeks, I heard a noise and I thought you were one of them. I'm sorry.
- Ya r bit?
- No, just wounded.
- Show me! .- the boys dad shouted to me .-
- Ok, ok. - So, i show them.
- OK, Im Rick, this is my son, Carl, and the guy with the crossbow is Daryl.- He seems to be pacing.- You are on your own? do you have a group?
- Yes, I'm on my own. It was me and Jake till today.
- Ya coulda came with us, we have a group, food, medicines….even a doctor .- Says Daryl.- But, you have to answer some questions 'fore, alright?
- Ok.
- What's your name?
- Sarah.
- How many geeks have you kill?
- I dont know, too many to count.
- How many people have you kill?
- three.
- Why?
- Why what? - I snap.-
- Why did ya kill 'em?
- Oh... well, one tried to rape me, another one tried to kill us….and the last one, well I did what I have to do.
- Ok, fine, you can come with us. We will pach you up and then we will vote if you can stay or not. You agree?. - Rick says picking up my bow and my gun.
- OK, fine….yes I agree!.- We start moving.- Can I have my gun and my bow back?
- No gun, no bow until we decide that we can trust ya, kiddo.- Says Daryl, making a grim.
- I'm not a kid anymore, stop calling me that.
- How old are you, then, kiddo?
- 15.
- Then, ya are a kiddo for me, sweetheart. - he is really having fun.
- Whatever, redneck! -
We keep walking for at least 1 hour. They are really ignoring me. Rick and Daryl are talking, keeping their voices down. I hurry up and approached the boy:
- Er...look...Carl, right?
- Yes. - he says pointing his blue eyes to me.
- I'm sorry, I'm really sorry 'bout 'fore….I didn't mean to hurt you.
- You didn't.
- Well, still, I'm sorry.
- Fine. - He says without even looking at me.
"Fine, Sarah, no even the boy will be your friend! Just like in the old times!" I thought to myself as we get a full view of the camp they have. They are living in a prison. Awesome!.
