Hey, everyone! I really hope you've enjoyed Carver vs. The Governor. If you haven't read it, I recommend it if you want to know how Rick met with Clem and the group and how everything went down. The story continues here!
Episode 1- 30 Days Without An Accident
Recap: Let me fill you in on what happened in between Carver vs. The Governor and now.
Rebecca gave birth to her son who was named Alvin Jr (AJ), Rebecca sadly died during birth(She would be dead at this point in the game and I wanted to keep that the same.)
The Prison- 6 months later
Rick came out of the back door of the prison and walked down the steps and went over to a barrel of water to splash his face. He walked down to the garden in the field. He was raking at the dirt while listening to music on an ipod. He felt something solid in the dirt and dug it out. It was a pistol covered in dirt. When he looked up at the walkers on the fence, he noticed a few had blood-red, bulging eyes with blood coming down. He ignored it, took the clip out of the gun and threw it into a wheel barrel.
(Intro)
Carlos was at the pig pen checking on one of the pigs. Rick took a drink from the water canteen hanging up next to it. Carl was running to him. "You didn't wake me up." He smiled.
"Cause I knew you were up all night reading comics with a flashlight." Rick said.
"What's up with Violet?" Carl asked Carlos.
"Carl, I told you not to name them." Rick said. "They're not piglets anymore. They're food."
"I just thought, you know, until...okay." He sighed.
"I don't know what's wrong with her. Could be sick, could be nothing." Carlos said.
"Get well, Violet." Rick said before smiling at Carl. "Come on, let's get to it."
At breakfast outside, Daryl and Kenny were being greeted like they were superstars."Morning, Daryl. Kenny."
"What's up, Dr. S?" Daryl said.
"My favorite doctor." Kenny said.
"Morning, Daryl."
"How you doin', Ken?"
"Hey, Daryl!"
"Sup', Daryl."
"Morning, Kenny!"
Carol handed them a plate of food. "Smells good." Daryl said.
"Just so you know, I liked you first." Carol said to Daryl smiling.
"Stop."
"You know, Rick brought in a lot of them, too." Kenny said.
"Not recently. Give the stranger sanctuary, keeping people fed, you're both gonna have to learn to live with the love." Carol said.
"Right." Daryl said.
"I need you to see something." Carol said. "Patrick, you want to take over?" She asked the kid.
"Yes, ma'am." Patrick said. He stopped Daryl before he walked away. "Uh, Mr. Dixon, I just wanted to thank you for bringing that deer back yesterday. It was a real treat, sir. And I'd be honored to shake your hand." He said holding out his hand. Carol and Daryl were smiling. Daryl licked his fingers before shaking his hand. He and Kenny followed Carol.
"About today, I don't know if we're gonna be able to spare a lot of people for the run." Carol said walking with Daryl and Kenny.
"That place is good to go. We're gonna move on it." Daryl said as they approached the fence looking down at the walkers clinging to the fences.
"Yeah. The thing is, we had a pretty big buildup overnight. Dozens more towards tower three. It's getting as bad as last month. They don't spread out anymore." Carol said.
"With more of us sitting here, we're drawing more of them out." Kenny said.
"Yeah, and when you get enough of those d**n fence-clingers, they start to herd up." Daryl added.
"Pushing against the fences again. It's manageable, but unless we get ahead of it, not for long. Sorry, Pookie." Carol said.
"Oh, brother." Kenny said after hearing that.
Later
The group going on the run are packing up their weapons and equipment. Beth was walking up to them.
"Hey. I was gonna come and find you." Her boyfriend, Zack, said after putting things in the trunk of one of the cars.
"What's going on?" She asked him.
"Well, the council pulled back everyone on the coal crew from going on the run. They're shorthanded right now. I figured I'd step up to help, go with 'em. Just wanted to make sure I saw you before." Zack said.
"Okay."
"I just-'cause, you know, it's dangerous going out there."
"I know." She said then kissed him.
"Okay, you gonna say goodbye?" He asked.
"Nope."
"It's like a d**n romance novel." Daryl joked walking by with a crate.
(A/N: That scene wasn't needed but, ehh.)
"Hey. I'd like to start pulling my weight around here." A man, named Bob, said walking up to them while they're loading up the cars.
"Bob, it's only been a week." Luke said.
"That's a week worth of meals, a roof over my head. Let me earn my keep." Bob said.
"You were out on your own when Daryl found you." Sasha said.
"Right?"
"I just want to make sure you know how to play on a team." She said.
"We ain't gonna do it unless it's easy." Luke said to Sasha.
"You know he was a medic in the Army." Glenn informed. Bob looked at Sasha for approval but she just stared. "You a h*ll of a tough sell. You know that?" He smiled.
"Okay." She said. They all got in the cars.
At the garden
Hershel was showing Rick tips on planting. He had a prosthetic leg now. "These leaves are gonna be in the shade, so we won't be getting any good fruit from it. So, we just pinch it off here. Things break, but they can still grow. These little bristles, they'll take root and we'll have a whole new plant." Hershel explained.
Near the gate, Kenny whistled to Rick. Michonne was coming back on a horse from looking for the Governor. Rick and Kenny ran to open the doors and gate and let her in. The doors pushed the walkers in front of it into the spikes they set up. Rick, Kenny, and Carl ran to her. "Glad to see you." Rick said.
"Glad to see you, too." Michonne said. "Somebody hit the jackpot." She said handing Carl some comic books.
"No way. That's awesome! Thank you." He smiled.
"I get to read 'em when you're done." She said. "And I found these," She said pulling out two electric hair razors. "Your face is losing the war, Beard Masters." She joked bowing to them playfully. Rick and Kenny laughed.
"You gonna stay a little while?" Rick asked.
"Just a little while." Michonne said.
Daryl was on his motorcycle leading the other cars through the gate. "Well, look who's back." He said pulling up next to them.
"I didn't find him." Michonne said.
"Glad to see you in one piece." He said.
"I'm thinking of looking over near Macon. It's worth a shot." She said.
"70 miles of walkers. You might run into a few unneighborly types. Is it?" Kenny asked.
"I'm gonna go check out the Big Spot. The one me and Luke was talking about, just seeing." Daryl said.
"Yeah, I got to go out and check the snares. I don't want to lose whatever we catch to the walkers." Rick said.
"I'll go." Michonne said.
"You just got here." Carl said.
"And I'll be back." She smiled at him then got in one of the cars.
Rick and Kenny ran to the gates and let them out and they drove off to the Big Spot.
"You want to check the snares?" Carl asked Rick and Kenny.
"We are. You're not. Do your chores. Read comics. Maybe some books, too. Hang out with Patrick. Maybe go to storytime." Rick said.
"Dad, that's for kids."
"Yeah. Now brush her down." Rick said patting the horse on the back.
Hershel approached Rick to talk.
"Nothing wrong with staying close, Rick. Everyone understands. You're growing us enough food so we don't need to do runs soon.
But we do need to find you a good pair of overalls. Make you look like Farmer Rick." Kenny joked.
"Yeah, you need to look the part. A little piece of wheat out of the corner of your mouth. Maybe a bigger a**." Hershel joked.
"Yeah." Rick laughed.
"Listen, the rest of the council; Daryl, Luke, Glenn, Carol, Sasha, Mike, all of them. They wanted me to talk to you. When you go out there, you got to take your gun." Hershel said.
"It's just outside the fence. I have my knife. I get in trouble, six bullets isn't gonna make a difference." Rick said.
"Rick, we want you to be safe. Bring your gun." Hershel said.
The kids were at the fences. They were calling to the walkers by name saying hi to them. "You're naming them?" Carl said walking up with Clementine and Patrick.
"Well, one of them has a name tag, so we thought all of them should." The girl, Mika said.
"They had names when they were alive. They're dead now." Clementine said.
"No, they're not. They're just different." Lizzie said.
"What the h*ll are you talking about? Okay, they don't talk. They don't think. They eat people. They kill people." Carl said.
"People kill people. They still have names." Lizzie said.
"Have you seen what happens? Have you seen someone die like that?" Carl asked.
"I sure have." Clementine said to herself.
"Yeah, I have." Lizzie answered Carl.
"They're not people. And they're not pets. Don't name them." Carl said.
"Come on, guys. We're supposed to go read." She said depressingly walking away with the other kids.
"You coming to story time tonight?" Mika asked Patrick and Clementine.
"Uh, yeah." Patrick answered.
"I think I'll pass." Clementine said, feeling too old for storytime.
"Okay. See ya."Mika said running off.
Carl and Clementine stared at Patrick.
"I go sometimes. I'm immature. You wouldn't dig it. It's for little kids." Patrick said.
"Why don't you go, Clem?" Carl asked her.
"Carl, you know I'm not the type for that stuff. Those kids were basically babied at Woodbury while people like the two of us were out struggling to survive. Seeing and experiencing all kinds of violence. And, you know, because Shel sometimes make Becca go. You know I don't like her." Clementine said.
"Yeah, what's her problem anyway? She seems to have a problem with you in particular." Patrick said to Clementine.
"I can't figure her out." Carl said.
"Dude, she's in love with you. Everyday, she has something flirty to say to you." Patrick said.
"Okay, whatever you say." Carl said.
"She likes to bully Sarah. I don't know why. I try to protect her from her, but that just seems to make things worse between me and Becca." Clementine said.
"Well, I'm gonna go head up there. I'll catch you two, later." Patrick said walking away.
"See ya."
The Big Spot
Daryl, Luke, Michonne, Glenn, Sasha, Tyreese, Mike, Bob, and Zack arrived at the Big Spot. There were army tents and vehicles around the parking lot. "Army came in and put these fences up. Made it a place for the people to go. Last week, when me and Luke spotted this place, there was a bunch of walkers behind this chain-link keeping people out like a bunch of guard dogs." Daryl said.
"So they all just left?" Bob asked.
"Give a listen." Sasha said. There was music playing in the distance.
"You drew 'em out." Michonne said.
"We put a boom box out there three days ago. Hooked it up to two car batteries." Luke said.
"All right, let's make a sweep. Make sure it's safe. Grab what you can. We'll come back tomorrow with more people." Daryl said leading the group through the fence with his crossbow ready. The group looked through tents for useful items. Mike was the spearman. His new weapon was a spear made with a metal pipe and a long knife. He also carried around a shield strapped to his back sometimes. The shield was just a tin trashcan lid, but he could still protect himself from walkers.
Daryl led the group to the building. He banged on the glass to attract walkers and sat on the window ledge. "Just give it a second." He said.
"Okay, I think I got it." Zack said leaning on the wall.
"Guess what?" Michonne asked.
"I've been trying to guess what Daryl did before the turn." He answered sitting down next to Daryl.
"He's been trying to guess for, like, three weeks." Luke said.
"Yeah, I'm pacing myself. One shot a day." Zack said.
"All right, shoot." Daryl said.
"Well, the way you are at the prison, you being on the council, you're able to track, you're helping people, but you're still being kid of...surly." Zack said. Daryl, Michonne, and Luke looked at him confused. "Big swing here. Homicide cop."
Luke and Michonne started laughing.
"What's so funny?" Daryl asked.
"Nothing. It makes perfect sense." Michonne said sarcastically.
"Actually, the man's right. Undercover." Daryl said.
"Come on, really?" Luke asked.
"Yep. I don't like to talk about it 'cause it was a lot of heavy s**t, you know?" Daryl said.
"Dude, come on, really?" Zack asked. Daryl looked at him. Everyone shifted in there positions and Daryl cleared his throat.(funny awkward moment)
"Okay. I'll just keep guessing, I guess." Zack said.
"Yeah, you keep doing that." Daryl said.
"Mm-hmm."
A walker finally came to the window and started banging at it. "We're gonna do this, Detective?" Michonne joked.
"Let's do it."
Tyreese dragged out the walker he killed. The group was armed and ready. "All right, we go in, stay in formation for the sweep. After that, you all know what you're supposed to look for. Any questions?" Sasha said.
"Was there ever a time that you weren't the boss of me?" Tyreese asked.
"I had a few years before I was born." She joked. The group went inside.
On the roof of the Big Spot, there was a crashed helicopter and dozens of walkers.
While searching, Michonne came across a cut-out board of a Frankenstein-like monster. She stared at it, unamused, and took out her katana and sliced it down the middle.
Bob came across a bunch of alcohol on the shelves and couldn't resist but pick it up. He was going to put it in his bag, but put it back on the shelf a little too hard, causing the shelf to break and fall over him, breaking all the glass. The walkers on the roof heard the commotion.
Daryl came to Bob. Flashing his flashlight under the shelf to see. "You all right? You cut or something?" Daryl said.
"No, man, but my foot is caught." Bob answered.
"All right. He' caught. Come on, help me get this up. Tyreese and Luke helped Daryl lift the shelf.
"What happened?!" Glenn asked.
"Everyone's all right. We're over in wine and beer." Daryl said lifting one of the shelves to get to Bob's shelf.
"I was moving fast, man. I drove right into the drinks." Bob said.
"Man, you lucked out. If this thing came down on you the wrong way..." Tyreese said.
Suddenly, a walker falls through the roof, and is hanging by it's intestines with blood pouring out. "Yeah, uh, we should probably go now." Glenn said looking at the walker.
"Bob's still stuck. Get him out of there." Mike said.
"We'll get the others." Sasha said.
Suddenly, more walkers started falling through the ceiling and crashing down on boxes and shelves. A walker attacked Glenn, bringing him to the ground. Another one grabs his leg. Mike came up behind it and speared it through the head. Glenn then reached for his pistol and shot the one holding him down.
Michonne is taking out walkers with her katana, and Luke is using his AK while Sasha is using her SMG. When walkers close in on her, she uses a metal bar to kill them.
Daryl is taking out walkers with his pistol and crossbow trying to get to Bob. The helicopter on the roof is starting to slip and is about to fall on Daryl.
"Daryl, Luke, we got to go!" Glenn shouted shooting walkers.
"Luke, get Bob!" Zack shouted shooting walkers.
Luke got to Luke and there was a leg-less walker coming towards him. He dragged him away and stomped his head in. Luke and Zack held up the shelf and Daryl helped Bob out. Suddenly, the roof started to cave fall apart. "Come on, let's go! Place is falling apart, let's go!" Glenn yelled.
Zack is about to run but is grabbed and bitten in the leg by a walker. The group watched in horror as he was ripped apart. "We got to go!" Mike yelled.
The group ran out as the whole building collapsed.
The Prison- Library
Carol was in the library with the kids reading to them. Becca was in there, looking bored out of her mind. Carl came into the room.
"The children fastened their eyes upon their bit of candle and watched it melt slowly and pitilessly away. Saw the half inch of wick stand alone at last. Saw the feeble flame rise and fall. Climb the thin tower of smoke. Linger at it's top a moment and then..." Carol stopped reading and closed the book when the dad of Lizzie and Mika left the room.
"Ma'am, should I take watch now?" One of the kids asked.
"Yes, Luke, you do that." Carol said. He got up and went to the door.
Carol took out a kit full of different knives. "Today...we are talking about knives-how to use them, how to be safe with them, and how they could save your life." Carol said to the kids.
"I already know how to use a knife. I've been using a knife and gun since this started. What does this have to do with me?" Becca asked.
"You can help teach these kids, Becca. I still need you here." Carol said.
"I guess so." She said.
"Ma'am can I be dismissed?" Patrick asked
"What is it?" Carol asked.
"Can't take the heat, then get out of the kitchen." Becca joked.
"I'm just not feeling very well." Patrick said.
"Sometimes you're gonna have to fight through it. What if you wind up out there alone? You just give up because you're feeling bad?" Carol asked.
"No, it's just I don't want to yack on somebody." He said. Everyone moved away from him. Carol shaked her head and he left the room.
"Okay, today we're gonna learn how to hold a knife, how to stab and slash and where to aim for-" Carol stopped when she noticed Carl watching. "Please, don't tell your father." She said. Carl started to leave but was stopped by Becca.
"Carl, wait." She said getting up and walking over to him. "Can I talk to you privately?" She asked pulling him to the side.
"What is it, Becca?" He sighed.
"Just stay here with me." Becca said.
"Becca, you know I don't like storytime. It's for kids." He said.
"I know, but Shel keeps making me stay, and I can't stand the kids here. I need you here."
"I can't stay, Becca."
"Whatever." Becca sighed. Carl left the room.
Daryl came to Beth while she was reading in here bed. "Hey." She said.
"Hi."
"What is it?"
"Zack."
"Is he dead?" She asked. Daryl didn't have to say anything for her to figure it out.
"Okay." Beth got out of bed and took down her '30 Days Without An Accident' sign. Daryl was just looking at her.
"What?" She asked. Daryl shrugged.
"I don't cry anymore, Daryl. I'm just glad I got to know him, you know? Are you okay?" She asked.
"Just tired of losing people is all." Daryl said. Beth hugged Daryl.
"I'm glad I didn't say good-bye. I hate good-byes." She said still hugging him.
"Me too." Daryl said.
Rick was talking to Hershel about the woman he encountered in the woods, who later committed suicide. Kenny and Clementine were sitting nearby. "You tried to help her. You couldn't. No one could. Some people are too far gone. You're not. You tried to help her." Hershel said.
"How that woman wound up, I got close to that." Rick said holding baby Judith. "If I lost Carl and Judith, if I lost this place-" Rick was cit off by Hershel.
"Not then, Rick. Not even then. You came back. Your boy came back. You get to come back. You do." Hershel said.
"When I lost my wife...and son, I got to come back from it. Sarita brought me back. You can always come back, Rick. That's why I'm still here and kickin' it." Kenny said.
At night, everyone is going to bed. Patrick gets out of bed coughing and starts walking to the shower room. When in there, he pumps the water to make one of the showers come on, getting water over his face. He starts to lose his breath and collapses to the floor.
In the middle of the night, Patrick opens his eyes as a walker.
