ELLIE?
Chapter 1
Ellie Peered around the corner, holding her breath. She had heard the gunshots almost 30 secounds ago now and Joel hadn't come back.
' Stay here Ellie ! ' he had said as he ran around the corner to check where Tommy had gone. The three of them were on a recovery mission, looking for a Hydro Processor in an abandoned power plant 6 miles east of the camp. Normally on theese kind of assignments Ellie would have stayed behind at the camp and helped the younger chilldren, this time she had begged to come and Tommy had convinced Joel to let her. In many ways the three of them were like Family and both Tommy and Joel saw Ellie to be alot like Sarah.
When they got to the plant, it was earilly still and quiet. Joel and Tommy soon found the Hydro Processor and it was on there way out of the plant that Ellie had heard the familier ' click, click ' of a Clicker. Tommy had gone to check it out and Joel took Ellie to a safe spot.
Two minuetes turned into Three then four and soon it had been ten minuetes since Tommy had split from the group. Joel couldnt sit still he kept standing then sitting and Naturally, Joel wanted to go and find his brother and when he did, it wasn't 30 secounds before Ellie heard the gunshots from the 30mm Revolver Joel was carrying.
But now as she peered around the corner she could not see anything out of the ordinary but neither could she see Joel or Tommy. 2 Years ago, this would not have proved a problem. Ellie would have marched in there picked them both up onto her soulders ( so to speak ) and they would be on thier merry way. However, after being captured and haunted by a horible man who nearly killed and raped her, it was a different story. She knew Joel was in danger and Tommy could be dead but she just turned back around and sat down, with her head on her knees.
