Hey guys, I will make this short. This is my first fanfic and I don't own The Walking Dead or anything else that is there except for my characters. Enjoy!

Why I am still here. In this wretched world you called life but the dead walks and hunts the living. Here I am complaining about this world and people helped me which cause them their lives and I am here….weak.

(In the Woods)

Me (Bray Haylens, black curly hair, tan skin, red long sleeved shirt and black jeans 14) and my friend (Jacob Higgins, dreads, orange hoodie with a black t-shirt under it, dark skin, 18) was walking around the forest looking for food, water, and something to drink. "Hey, when you will think we will die?" Jacob looks at me in a shocking expression. "Whoa where this came from?" I looked down but continued walking, "Our family..our friends helped us and they were more experienced in survival than we are but they lost their lives for us to survive. It bothers me."

Jacob stopped walking, making me stop and look at him. "They gave their lives away because they want us to keep going Bray. I know you still kinda shook up about what happened but you can't just moan and bitch for the rest of your life. Look I see a road over there let's go." Jacob resumed walking, I stood standing and quiet. "Bray come on, don't give up now. I know it hurts when you lose someone but we have to keep going and survive. You hear me?" I nodded, "If you die, you know I won't forgive myself right?" I said while starting to walk. Jacob looks down, "same..."

(5 hours later, in a junkyard, Bray POV)

We walked for 5 hours, just wandering around to find somewhere to stay but found dinner (a rabbit) and some left over water we kept. We went to a junkyard where there was a lot of vehicles and junk (as expected). "Bray right behind you!" I immediately looked right behind me and a walker lunged at me causing me to fall. Jacob smashed the walker's head with his crowbar he just found. I pushed the walker off me, still breathing. "you alright?" he asked me. I got up and said "I'm not dead am I?" I smirked as he chuckled. We continued walking as I saw a ladder. We climbed up and saw a shed or somewhere we can actually sleep. "Damn, the door is locked." I looked around and saw little passage way underneath the shed. I went in and kept going until I climbed up from the little hatchet that was there. "Hey I am inside, you gotta see this." I opened the door letting Jacob in. Jacob looked around and said, "Holy shit I think we hit the jackpot! Look at all this pudding, water and medicine. Well the mattresses is disguising it safe to say that we found something we can stay for a bit." I smiled and begin to take a cup of pudding. "Finally food that won't fight back." Jacob laughed as he also got his pudding as we settled in.

(1 hour later)

We heard noises outside which sounded like men. "Shit shit shit Jacob what we gonna do?" Jacob picked up his crowbar and opened the hatchet which leaded under the shed. "Over here now!" We got in as we saw the three men came inside as we stayed discreet from them. "Hey Badger have you noticed something around here?" The man with the hat on (Max) said. "Yea some of our shit is gone!" Badger now was cautious. "But the door was locked. I doubt someone would get in." The African American (Lonnie) questioned his comrades about the situation. "Lonnie is right, maybe we misplaced some things. Let's get some rest, we gotta go back to the settlement as soon as the damn sun comes up." Lonnie begins to pass over the hatchet we was under in and luckily didn't see us. "Yeah I'm feeling pretty heavy." Lonnie laid on his mattress. I begin to shiver from the nervousness from trying to not get caught. Jacob puts his hand on my shoulder and nod as he slowly walked out the passage from the shed. I followed him out. As soon as I got out I saw guns pointed at my head. "Don't move you little shit. What you think you doing her thinking you can just still our shit." Max said as I looked at Jacob who was trying to come up with a explanation. "We are trying to find some food and somewhere to stay, we didn't know someone was staying here. We are sorry." Jacob begins to get up but Badger kicked him causing Jacob to go back down. "JACOB!" Badger looked at me " Shut the fuck up kid! Sorry isn't enough for stealing our food." Jacob was still groaning of that kick. "Badger the fuck you are doing!" Badger in a viscous tone "Showing these assholes how we don't take thieves kindly." Jacob yells "RUN NOW!" I begin getting up but quickly got gun butted from one of the men.

(Sometime later)

I begin to wake up. I saw was inside a truck and a long haired man was driving. "Hey where we going?" The man didn't answer me. "Hey! Where you taking me and where's Jacob!" I asked again with a show of anger. "If I was you, I keep my mouth shut if I you know what's good for you." The man finally talked. I tried processing what was going on. 'Am I going to die? Is Jacob dead? Where they are taking me?' I heard the man "OH SHIT!" as the truck started to crash from a tree. I pushed my self together and saw the man knocked out, I took his gun and rolled out from the truck door. I also see the man regained his consciousness and begin to break for it. "HEY STOP!" I pointed the gun at him. He didn't say nothing so I just lowered my gun and gestured him to leave. Then things just always have to get worse when I felt a gun pointing at me. "Fuck, alright will lower my gun just please don't hurt me." I lowered my gun and sighed, "good, now don't move or I will hesitate to shoot." The voice sounded like a girl so I knew it wasn't one of the men and weirdly it sounded young. I turned around and see a girl with a hat, a blue hoodie, and brown pigtails. "Hey you are kid." Clem looked inside the truck and grabbed an apple. She took a bite out of it and continues to point the shotgun at me. "You too now turn around and open your eyes till I count a hundred" she demanded. "Wait I gotta find my friend. I need to know if he is alright. We was attacked at the junkyard near here. I just need get there." She begins to think. "You said the junkyard near here, I think I know where that is. If you want me to help you will owe me got it?" I nodded, " I just want to find my friend." She suddenly tied my hands, "Just in case you do something stupid. Now move" We begin walking down the road with silence. "Oh...my name is Bray by the way." I begin to break the silence. "Clementine" She revealed her name. "Cool..." this will be a long walk.
