Even though the whole world went to shit, Kat never felt truly alone 'til now. She always had her family and friends with her along the way. But now, now she was alone and scared. She had no one. Her camp was attacked and her family was seperated for the first time. She tried to get away with them but lost them all in the commotion. Now she didn't even know if any of them made it out alive. Kat ran and walked for miles until she couldn't move anymore. She felt her legs shake as she came to a stop and fell to her knees. She let out a sob that made her whole body shake. The thought of her whole family gone and her alone in the miserable world made her release another sob. Kat felt like she was on the floor for hours until she heard something behind her. She looked over her shoulder and saw two men trying to sneak up on her. She quickly got up and took her machete from the holder. One of the men slowly walked towards her. She looked over between the two.
"Now we don't want any problems now do we, doll?" He said. He held out his hands as he walk towards her. She stared at the huge scar on his face that came from his forehand to his cheek.
The skinny man smirked and took the sight of Kat in. She felt sick. She backed away slowly holding her machete towards them.
"Come on bitch lets go." The skinny one said. Kat growled.
"Now, now let's not get hasty." The man closer said. Then the skinny man behind pulled out a gun as the scar man came closer and attempted to grab Kat. Kat screamed and whipped her machete. The machete cut the mans hand off. The sight of the severed hand and his partner falling to the floor with blood spreading on the floor made the skinny man cringe and shot his gun hitting Kat in the shoulder. She stumbled to her back. Though she was going in and out, she saw the man with the gun helping the one crying out in pain.
"Kill the bitch!" Yelled the handless man. The man with the gun looked at her. He then walked over to her. He loomed over her. He pointed the gun to her head. As he pulled the trigger, nothing came out. He cursed under his breath and reached for a new clip. As he was distracted, Kat reached for her weapon. She struck the man in the leg and he fell to the ground in pain. She quickly got up and ran away. She hissed in pain as she ran. Jumping over logs and dips in the ground. She could hear yelling from at least three different voices and gun shots. She tried to run as fast as she could but the pain in her shoulder was getting to her. She had to find somewhere to hide out. She couldn't take this any longer. She kept running at a steady pace before seeing the trees thin out and saw a small town coming up.
Rick, Glenn, and Michonne searched the nearby town a some miles east of Alexandria. They were starting to run out of personal necessities for the people of Alexandria. Glenn held his list as he crossed the street to the pharmacy. He groaned. He was starting to hate going on runs for people. He just wanted to stay near Maggie. But he knew that he had to do this for his family and the people of his new home. Then he heard a gunshot in the distance. He looked up from his list. He paused in his tracks. Another and another shot rang out. Each closer than the last. He immediately turned around and headed back into the clothing store Michonne and Rick were in. Michonne and Rick looked up from what they were doing as Glenn busted through the doors of the store.
"What is it?" Rick asked. Already getting his gun out from its holster.
"I heard gun shots. They sound like they're getting closer." Glenn said. All of them ran out of the store with their supplies in tow. Glenn and Michonne put the things in the back of the pickup truck as Rick kept watch. He could hear the gun shots getting closer and now yelling.
"Rick, we need to get out of here." Michonne said. Rick raised his hand to silence her. He heard a faint scream. It sounded like a woman's. Rick started to run towards the noise. Glenn and Michonne looked at each other before getting their weapons out and running after him.
Rick ran some blocks following the noise. He looked around trying to find the source. Michonne and Glenn reached him just in time to hear another gun shot. This time Michonne lead the way. She took out her katana as she reached the corner of a building and looked around the corner. She saw a girl running down the street with blood all over her chest. Michonne saw a small group of men running after her laughing. Glenn tapped her shoulder.
"What is it?" He asked. Michonne growled.
"A girl and a group of men chasing her." She said. She looked again and saw the girl turn into an abandon building. The men went in one by one. As the last one as about to enter the building Michonne quietly ran up to him and stabbed him. The katana went straight through him as he gasped. Michonne removed the blade and let the man's body fall. She stabbed him in the head and proceeded inside. Rick and Glenn close behind.
Kat ran into the building and up the stairs. She fell on her stomach as one of the men grabbed her ankles. With one quick swipe she cut the man' head off. She continued up the stairs hearing the screams of two of the men. She reached a room and shut the door behind her. She used what she could to block the doorway. She looked out the window. It was to far of a jump to go out the window. Kat went into a corner and curled up. She felt tears stream down her face, not knowing what was going to happen to her.
Rick and Glenn went pass Michonne and towards the stairs. Glenn looked down at the headless body and cringed. As they reached the top of the flight of stairs. Glenn could hear the men banging on the door trying to open it.
"OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR YOU STUPID BITCH!" One of them yelled as he banged his body to the door. The other man started to join in. But as he was trying to break down the door, he looked at Rick and Glenn holding up guns towards them. He draw his weapon but before he could even point it at Rick and Glenn. Rick shot him in the throat. The last man with the scar on his face and one hand jumped back as he was distracted with the door. He raised up his hand, begging for his life to be spared. As Rick listened to his story, Michonne walked up the stairs. She looked at the situation at hand. Without a word, she ran up to the man with the scar and stabbed him. Rick sighed. Michonne took her sword out and cleaned it off in one swipe.
"I was gonna take care of him." Rick said.
"You took too long." Michonne walked up the door the men were trying to get into. She put her ears to the door.
"It's silent in there." She whispered. Rick moved towards the door and listened. Nothing. He motioned Glenn over to him.
"Go on three." Glenn nodded and got ready. "1, 2, 3!" Both men threw their bodies into the door. It broke open and they fell on a pile of broken wood. Michonne climbed over the men and towards the girl who was limp in the corner of the room. Michonne had her katana ready as she checked the girl's pulse.
"We have a pulse." She said. She looked at the wound. It was a gunshot wound.
"She's okay?" Glenn asked. Michonne nodded.
"Yeah. She passed out from the gunshot wound."
The car jumped from hitting a pothole causing Kat to wake up. She gasped as she looked around her. She tried to sit up but her shoulder wouldn't allow her too. She hissed and laid back down. Glenn turned around and looked at her.
"Guys she's awake." He said. Michonne looked and Rick looked quickly before going back to the road.
"Where am I? What happened?" Kat asked.
"We're taking you to a safe zone. We found you passed out in a room blocked off from some men trying to get you." Michonne said. Kat's memory after going into the building for safety was a blur. It grew silent and Michonne and Glenn turned back around. Rick cleared his throat.
"We were wondering how did you get yourself into the situation?" He asked. Kat didn't want to talk about it. She felt tears in her eyes.
"Well you don't have to say anything if you're not ready." Michonne said. After that the ride was a silent one.
