I was lying down on a couch trying to get some sleep. My blond hair all over my face. When everyone found this cabin most people were able to get bedrooms. There were not enough rooms for all of us and I volunteered to start sleeping on the couch. Everyone starting insisting for me to use their rooms instead because I was only 12, they all said that they'll sleep on the couch in my place, or let me sleep in Sarah's room. I declined telling everyone that its alright and that i'd preferred that I was the one sleeping on the couch, to be honest I found Sarah a little too annoying and would probably go mad sharing a room with her. Pete promised me we would go fishing first thing in the morning so we can eat, it honestly sounded so good and I haven't had fish since we were all apart of Carver's group. We've all been living off dried noodles for awhile now and we're all scared that Carver's men are going to find us and execute us, or even bring us back the the Howe's Hardware store. I slowly find my blue eyes getting heavier and I get comfortable and snuggle up in my blanket until I then hear a voice outside.
Rebecca: "Would someone mind telling me what the FUCK is going on here?"
Pete: "Now hold on Rebecca"
Nick: "Don't worry we got this"
Rebecca: "Like hell you do. Did anyone even think to ask where she came from? For all we know she could be working with Carver!
"Carver?" I asked myself, I got curious and decided to go outside and see why everyone is gathering, I open my eyes and let out a yawn as I begin to walk towards the door.
Pete: She already told us that she and her friend were attacked and that she was bitten by a dog.
Rebecca: What and you believed her? You should of put her out of her misery right there! Bite mark my ass.
I open the door to see Alvin, Nick , Pete and, Rebecca standing by a girl. She looks like she is about 11, she's wearing a purple t-shirt on top of another long-sleeve shirt and was wearing some washed blue jeans. She also wore a baseball cap of the Arizona Diamondbacks, her left sleeve was drenched in blood.
Clementine: I'M NOT WOR-
Before the girl can even finish her sentence Nick shot his rifle almost gutting the kid and missing her by a few inches. I ran up to everyone.
?: What the hell is going on?
Pete: Keep your finger off the trigger boy!
Luke then rushes out of the cabin.
Luke: WOAH, WOAH, What the fuck!?
Rebecca: You fucking idiot! Every lurker from five miles probably fucking heard that!
Nick: You're the one telling me to fuckin' shoot her!
Alvin: Everybody just call down for a second?
?: The hell are you guys doing?
Luke: Clementine you okay?
Clem: I'm not... I'm not working for anyone... I don't know what you're all talking about. I just need help.
Luke: We have a doctor here okay? He's gonna go take a look.
Luke then turns around and looks at everyone.
Luke: Now what the hell is wrong with you people?! Okay, shes just scared!
Rebecca: We're all scared Luke! Don't act like we're the ones being irrational because we all don't buy this bullshit story!
Nick: No way she's survived out here alone. Why are we even arguing about this?
I saw Carlos walk towards the girl, I really didn't want to drop my 2 cents into the conversation because they probably won't listen to because i'm just some kid, but I really felt worry for the girl. Her right arm must've been bitten by a lurker or wild animal. I decided to step in.
?: Well If I could survive by myself at my age who the hell says she can't. I believe her, she doesn't look like she is lying.
Pete: Adam, what are you doing up I thought you were going to sleep?
Adam: I heard you guys yelling and decided to come outside and see what everyone is yelling about, and you fired a fucking gun.
Nick: What makes you so sure that it wasn't a lurker?
Adam: Just let Carlos look at her arm i'm sure he'll give us something.
Carlos is looking at Clementine's left harm.
Carlos: Whatever it was it got you good.
Carlos was a doctor but for some reason had trouble making a concrete decision about whether or not it's a bite from a lurker or from a wild animal. Nick was walking around in a circle chewing on his thumb's fingernail.
Nick: This isn't how we do things, man if you get bit you get put down, end of story. I'm not going through this again.
Luke: No one is suggesting that!
Of course Nick had to bring up the fact that his Mom was killed by a lurker a few days ago,
Pete: We could take off her arm. I know that worked for a cousin down in Ainsworth we could try that.
The girl then looks at me and starts giving me some Puppy Dog eyes.
Adam: Hm? I'm on your side kiddo don't worry.
Sarah then peeks through the door.
Sarah: Who's she?
Carlos: Sarah. What did I say stay inside!
Clem: I don't mean to be any trouble, I just want to stop the bleeding and then i'll go. You'll never see me again.
Carlos: And where exactly would you go?
Clem: To find my friend Christa.
Luke: Look guys, I know I may be in the minority here but my gut is telling me she is telling the truth. It is a dog bite, probably. I mean look at Adam, he's around the same age and before Carver captured him when he was on his own, we trust him right? Why can't we trust her?
Carlos then walks towards everyone and we all group up.
Adam: So was it a lurker?
Carlos: Bite like that, it could be anything. Only one way to find out.
Adam: How's that?
Carlos: We wait,
Adam: the hell?
Carlos: Tomorrow morning if the fever sets in we know shes going to turn, in the meantime we'll lock her in the shed.
Adam: Okay i'm not trying to white knight here but are you fucking serious? That's just cruel. Look at her arm dude it needs to be cleaned, stitched, and bandaged or it's going to get infected. If you lock her inside the shed she'll die.
Luke: The girl is in bad shape Carlos!
Alvin: We have all that stuff in the cabin, we could probably get by with-
Rebecca: Alvin please!
Alvin: Yeah we can't help you.
Carlos: I'm not wasting supplied on a lurker bite, if it turns out you're telling the truth i'll clean it up and stitch it in the morning.
Clementine starts whimpering,
This is fucking crazy I thought to myself, everyone is okay with letting a little girl's arm get infected? We all start walking towards the cabin. Rebecca starts going off saying how we shouldn't waste our supplies on her. Clementine clearly see's how upset I was and starts talking to Luke and I.
Clem: My arm really hurts.
Luke: I don't know what to tell you but to just hold out best you can. We'll see what we can do in the morning.
Clem: Maybe you can get me some supplies? (Looks at Adam)
Adam: I don't know about getting you supplies but the right hand corner inside is busted. I left a hammer inside the shed, maybe if you want you could escape using that. Just don't try to kill us, I would hate to have to put you down. You and I are very similar, I think that's why i'm helping you right now, don't tell anyone I told you.
Clem: Okay, thanks.
We open the shed to let Clementine in.
Nick: I can't believe we're doing this it's fucking dumb.
Luke: It's safer this way, I rather be sure.
Adam: ...
Alvin: Group Meeting in 5 minutes!
We all go inside the house, I quickly head to the bathroom before meeting up with everyone.
Carlos: I've made my decision.
Pete: Well, Luke has more to say I guess. Where's Sarah and Adam?
Carlos: Shes got her book. She doesn't need to apart of this, and Adam said he'll be here in a second.
I then enter the kitchen.
Pete: There you are son, now what does everyone have to say?
Nick: Well she's obviously connected to somebody! There's no way shes out here all by herself.
Adam: Didn't she already say that she was with her friend before she was bitten by a dog?
Luke: Exactly what I thought, she said she was attacked by a group while cooking a weasel.
Everyone is discussing whether or not we should just kill her until I look to see Clementine, she's eavesdropping on us, she notices me but instead of ratting her out I signal her to go to the other room,
Adam: Oh sorry guys, i'll be right back um, my stomach isn't feeling good be free to discuss without me.
I walk over to Clementine.
Adam: So? I'm guessing you left using the broken hatch?
Clem: Yes, thank you, I need some supplies to stitch my arm.
Adam: Alright I could tell you where some are, We have a needle and tread in the bathroom. I'm sure Sarah has some peroxide you can use to clean your arm. Don't tell anyone I told you, got it?
Clem: Thank you, really.
Adam: Hmhm.
I then leave the girl and go back to the discussion, we all start talking about how she is with a friend and if she has more people, they're all scared thinking that if her group comes and they find out that we have her basically as prisoner inside our own shed that they'll attempt to kill us.
After what seemed to be about half an hour we start to hear screams and cries of pain from the cabin. Nick grabs his rifle and I grab my 9mm Beretta as they run towards the shed. So after they arrive they hear the sounds of a lurker inside the shed and Clementine grunting. I start to think that maybe she was killed by a lurker from the hatch that she used to get in.
Adam: Oh shit! Open the doors!
As we open the doors we see Clementine covered in the blood and brains of an impaled lurker. Clementine then pulls the hammer out of the lurkers head. Adam notices her arm is stitched up.
Clem: I'm Still... Not... BITTEN
And that was chapter one I hope you all enjoyed it. I like making these, but before the chapter ends I want to give a brief physical description of Adam (The Protagonist/Narrator of this story)
He wears a black shirt and on top of that shirt is a green jacket. He wears black track pants and has black and red basketball shoes. He's around the same height as Clementine (and potential love interest i'll decide whether or not to go down that path). He has blonde hair about medium size length (making him easy to grab) but has a white toque on. He carries a 9mm M9 Beretta since it's bullets are easy to come by since it's the most used caliber in the states. He carries a Bowie Knife in a holster on his left leg to use.
I would enjoy and feedback and criticism please.
I do not own The Walking Dead.
