Clementine had travelled with Omid and Christa for 2 years after the death of Lee which sadly she can't remember but Christa and Omid always make sure she won't forget him, Christa herself had lost a baby and Omid but she never lost her sanity, she had kept Clementine safe but a terrible incident caused Christa to get bit by a walker and Clementine bit by a dog.
They both found a set up camp, but of course the food and people where gone, Christa watched Clementine walk around not realising the walker behind her and before she knew it, it had taken a clump of flesh from her skin, as much as she wanted to scream she knew that it would cause Clementine to run, and as she got it off her she noticed a dog had been biting at Clementine's arm.
"Oh shit!" Christa ran towards the dog and kicked it away from Clementine and picked her up, her arm was bleeding badly but so was Christa's neck, "Sta?" Clementine's quiet voice caught her attention "Yeah?" She replied and looked down towards the girl who had tears running down her cheeks, "Neck!" She spoke again and Chritsa knew she was talking about the large bite in her neck, she ignored her and took her hand and led her forward on.
Christa had collapsed out of energy and life, "Clem? C'mere sweete!" Christa held out her arms and received a hug from Clementine, "Sta!?" Clementine cried into Christa's neck, Christa wanted to hold onto her forever but she would end up as a walker and perhaps eat her so she pushed Clementine away gently and closed her eyes "I gotta go sweetie, try and find someone or someplace safe!" She leaned her head against the rock but she could feel Clementine lightly hit her chest with her hands, she peeled an eye open and saw her teary face.
"No! No, Sta stays!" She cried again and again, "If only sweetie, if only, but right now i have to sleep" She started at Clementine and saw tears flow from her eyes and her cheeks turn pink, with a raspy chuckle she leaned forward and placed a kiss on her head, and with one last breath she whispered "I love you".
"Sta! Sta!" Clementine started to shake Chritsa's body hoping to wake her up, she didn't know why she had to go, she was fine twenty minutes ago but now she's sleeping, she sat beside's Christa's dead body and brought her knees up to her chest, herself was starting to feel dizzy because of the bite wound on her arm.
"Why are we even out here Pete?" Luke mumbled while kicking rocks underneath his feet, Pete and Luke had been told to scout ahead to find supplies or food but both of them knew that everything was gone, "Because Carlos told us too and we both know what he can get like" Pete sighed and rolled his eyes continuing his walk.
"Yeah, a pain in the ass is what he can be!" Luke chuckled to himself before hearing a soft whimper and tiny cry's, "Did you hear that?" He pulled Pete's shoulder causing him to turn around to Luke, "No? What was it?" He looked around and saw nothing but trees,rocks and dirt.
"I think its a walker!" Luke pulled his machete out and carefully watched his steps as he reached the rock where he heard the noises, he walked around it only to spot a young girl and a dead woman.
"Holy shit!" He cried out and put his machete away and kneeled in front of the girl who had her head tucked in between her knees, Pete had decided to join Luke by his side but he was mire focused on the woman, "Is she okay?" Clementine jerked her head up at the voice her face still teary "Away! Go" She pushed Luke who only giggled slightly but had concern written on his face "Are you okay!?" He went to reach for her but she pushed him away again.
"Sta, said not to talk to strangers!" She sniffled and looked towards Christa, who moved slightly which caused Luke and Pete to eye her cautiously, as Luke looked her up and down he noticed the bite mark "She's bit!" He tried to reach for Clementine once again but she pushed him back once again.
This time Christa had awoken but all she wanted was flesh and the first thing she flew for was Clementines neck but Luke had grabbed her away from the undead Christa, Clementine didn't like seeing Christa like this and buried her face in Luke's chest, Pete had shot Christa in the head with his cross brow which made Clementine cry slightly when she heard the bow penetrate the skull.
Pete,Clementine and Luke had walked back towards the cabin in silence before Pete spoke up and broke the silence "Why did you stay with her?" Luke had shot Pete a glare and was about to speak up but Clementine had spoke before him, "She went sleep!" Due to Clementine's age she couldn't exactly speak big words or speak in sentences but she tried her best to sound understandable.
Luke tightened his grip on Clementine, "I didn't catch you're name?" Luke wanted to change the subject and it worked "Clementine" She smiled at both of the men, "Well I'm Luke and this here is Pete", "Hey there!" Pete waved to Clementine, she waved back but whined in pain, "You okay?" Pete looked towards the girl, she lifted her t-shirt sleeve and revealed the dog wound, Luke panicked and dropped her.
"Ow!" She cried out, "Fuck! Fuck man, she's been bit!" Clementine looked towards Pete who looked back with a sympathetic look, "No! Doggy bit me" She stood back up and wobbled a little, "I didn't see no dog Clementine!", "Doggy ran away! Sta kicked it!" She cried out again this time looking towards look who had the same sympathetic look, "Maybe we should take her to Carlos, he'll tell us!" Pete looked towards Luke who refused to look at Clementine, "Okay then" Luke walked in front of Clementine, she looked down sadly and Pete put a hand on her shoulder and led her forwards.
"You okay Clementine?" Luke had noticed her trekking slowly, "Fine" She snapped at him "Just asking Clementine!" He raised his hand in a surrender motion and continued down the hill, Pete waited until she was beside him and walked with her slowly while Luke was walking fast towards the cabin.
"CARLOS!" Luke shouted when he entered the cabin and walked towards the kitchen in where Carlos was sitting "No need to shout Luke, I'm right here" Carlos returned to the book he was reading "Carlos, we found a girl who had a bite mark on her arm but she says that she was bit by a dog, can you check it out?" Before Carlos could speak up, he heard a little voice "Was doggy!" He looked behind Luke and saw a little girl pouting angrily, "I thought you would be a little older" He walked towards her but she walked back and looked towards Luke, "Don't worry, he's a doctor".
She walked toward him and rolled up her t-shirt sleeve, he lightly touched it causing her to pull away from him, "I know this is sore sweetheart, but i have to check this" He smiled at her and took her arm and inspected it, after a couple of minutes he stopped inspecting it.
"Its just a dog bite, the jaw line on her arm is too big to be a walker" He looked down towards her "It will need stitching!" She widened her eyes and stepped back, "You can hold Luke's hand if it gets sore, Pete can you get me the supplies? I want to check on Sarah!" Pete walked out of the kitchen and headed up to the bathroom and Carlos towards his daughter bedroom.
"Hey Clementine? You okay?" Luke kneeled down to her level "Will hurt?" She whispered quietly, Luke sighed and looked towards the ground there was no point in lying to her "Yeah it will, but you can hold my hand if you want?", she nodded slowly and heard the door open, Carlos and Pete had walked in, she noticed all of the medical supplies and cowered behind Luke.
"C'mon we have to clean this" Luke sat down on one of the kitchen chairs while Clementine struggled to get up on the other due to her height, Carlos chuckled slightly and helped her up "Thanks" she smiled at him, she took Luke's hand when Carlos laid out the supplies.
After s couple minutes of screaming and crying, Nick wandered in and caught the glimpse of Clementine crying and Luke rubbing Clementine's arm up and down "Shh..shh its okay!", "Uh..who's she?" He pointed at Clementine, Carlos gathered up the supplies "This here is Clementine" He pushed past Nick and headed towards the bathroom, "Hi" She smiled at Nick who smiled back, "I'll tell the others that she's here" He made his way out of the kitchen.
"C'mon and meet the others" Luke smiled softly and pushed the kitchen chair back in into its place and helped Clementine off of her seat as they entered the living room she noticed everyone staring at her which made her uncomfortable and hide behind Luke.
"Now can y'all stop staring at her like she's an animal!" He growled at the rest of the group, "Sorry! I haven't seen a kid for a long time now!" Alvin looked away from Clementine and looked towards his wife Rebecca who was still staring at her.
"Yeah whatever, she isn't staying her is she? It will be another mouth to feed!" Shs crossed her arms and narrowed her eyes at Clementine, "Now c'mon Bec, we cant throw her out, she wont survive for very long!" Pete spoke with an anger in his tone "Tsk, whatever!" She rolled her eyes and finally looked away from Clementine, who stood slightly away from Luke.
"Carlos? Can she stay?" Nick spoke up and stood beside Luke and smiled towards Clementine and she grinned back , Carlos thought for a second "Sure, i have no problem with that" He walked upstairs to inform Sarah about Clementine, Rebecca huffed and got up from the couch and walked towards her and Alvin's room.
"So Clementine, how old are you?" Luke sat down on the couch beside Nick and Clementine sat beside Alvin, "Three" She smiled at them, "Woah!" Nick whistled and his eyes grew a little wide before returning to his original size, "You're only three, god kid i thought you where five!" Luke chuckled out of pure astonishment, "How did you end up out here alone?" Alvin pondered his question at first but curiosity got the better of him, she looked sadly towards the ground "Travel with friend but she dead! Also travel with other friend he dead also" She frowned and felt a hand on her shoulder.
"Sorry kid, i shouldn't of asked!" Alvin looked at her sadly, but she just waved a hand in the air "Is okay! They peace now", Carlos had came down the stairs a concerned look on his face which caught Alvin's attention "Everything all right Carlos?" He removed the hand off of Clementine's shoulder and stood up, "Everything's fine but we don't have any pyjamas for a young girl!" He rubbed his face with his hands, "She's three to be precise" Luke spoke up and glanced around his shoulder to see Carlos's stunned face, "She's three!" He nearly yelled, Nick chuckled and stood up and headed towards his bedroom "Night!" He yelled when he reached the top of stairs.
Clementine was starting to doze off and Carlos noticed it "Clementine i think its past you're bedtime" He walked towards her and shaked her lightly causing her to jolt awake "Hmm?" She yawned, "Sarah is upstairs waiting for you, its the bedroom next to the toilet" She jumped down from the couch and walked towards the stairs but as she looked up them they looked steep and hard to climb.
She slowly crawled up them, using both of her hands to grip each step and both of her feet on each steps, she heard quiet laughing and footsteps on the stairs, "C'mere!" She looked up and saw Luke loom over her, he picked up her and led her towards Sarah's bedroom, he let her down and walked away back downstairs.
She knocked on Sarah's door and hear a small voice "Come in!", Clementine opened the door slowly and saw Sarah sitting on the bed reading her book, "Oh so you're Clementine!" She smiled at Clementine and closed the book and rested it against her bedside table, Clementine closed the door and made her way towards the bed, slowly climbing on it with the help of Sarah.
"How old are you?" Sarah asked with sparkles in her eyes and a faint smile, Clementine crossed her legs "Three! How old you?" She started to rock herself back and fourth earning a quiet giggle from Sarah, "I'm Fifteen" Sarah looked around her room hoping to find something they could play with but a knock to the door stopped her search.
"Girls?" Carlos's voice was quiet but stern, "Yes dad?" Sarah got off the bed and opened to the door, "Its time for bed, its quarter-to-tweleve" Sarah looked back towards Clementine and noticed she doesn't have any pyjamas on, "Does she have anything to wear to sleep?" She turned back around to her dad, "Im afraid not sweetie, can you let her borrow one of you're t-shirts?".
"Yeah, night dad!" She kissed her dad's cheek and closed the door, Clementine watched as Sarah opened one of her drawers and pull out an old pink shirt, "We don't have any pyjamas for you but you can borrow one of my t-shirts" She placed the t-shirt on the bed, "Do you want me to help you change?" Sarah stood in front of the girl and saw her nod an approval, As Sarah started to help her change out of her normal clothes she decided to make small talk.
"What happened to you're arm?" Sarah asked quietly and waited for a response, "Doggy bit me!" Clementine whined out as Sarah pulled the old t-shirt over her head and placed the old one over in the drawer, "Aw sorry to hear that, at least my dad fixed it up for you!" She gave Clementine a light hug "Lets go to sleep, my dad will kill me if we stay up any later!".
Clementine noticed a old cot hiding in the corner and seeing as Clementine was young when the apocalypse started she wasn't used to sleeping in a bed and looking at Sarah's bed it looked to big and suffocating, so she made her way to the cot and tried to get in it but she could reach the bars to climb in it.
"You want to sleep in the cot?" Sarah pipped up behind Clementine who looked towards her and nodded a quick yes, "Okay!" Sarah picked Clementine up and stetted her into the cot, she couldn't find any covers "I'll be back in a minute",She walked out of the bed and chapped her dads door, he opened it and saw Sarah "Sarah! What did i say, get to you're bed!" He was about to close the door but Sarah spoke up quickly "I need some blankets, and teddies!".
Carlos raised his eyebrows at her "Blankets and Teddies?, Sarah you have enough covers and you don't need the teddies anymore", Sarah waved her hands "No, not for me for Clementine, she's sleeping in the old cot, i don't think she use's to sleeping in beds!" She entered her dads room and spotted the old teddies and blankets in the corner and picked them up and headed back to her room, ignoring her dad.
She saw Clementine sitting in the cot playing with her fingers and laughing to herself, "Here you go!" Sarah gave Clementine the teddies and laid her down and put the covers over her, "You get some sleep now!" Sarah gave her a kiss on the cheek and made her way over to her own bed, letting sleep take over her and the same with Clementine who was cuddling the teddies with all her might.
