They ran through the woods at full speed, walkers coming at them from every direction. Gunfire lingered in their ears. Deafening them. As they ran they stumbled on tree roots, they couldn't fall, if they did it was life or death. 'It's funny,' she thought to herself,'even tripping over can get you killed now'. She thought long and hard about the events that had happened since it started. Part of her was knew that Sophia dying was a good thing, it meant she didn't have to grow up in this shit hole we call the world. A single tear fell down her face, thinking about her, they life they had before. Her life before wasn't great but at least she had her little girl with her.
Carol stumbled but didn't fall. She fell into one, a walker. At first she fought it off with her hands but then she stopped. What was the point of trying. What was the point of living. Suddenly an arrow whistled past her ear and hit the walker straight in the eye. She continued to run, Daryl close behind her.
They stumbled through the prison gates, and as soon as the gates were closed behind them Daryl said, "Are you hurt, bit, sick."
"Answer me!" he shouted when she didn't reply.
"I'm fine." she said looking down at the ground. As soon as the inner gate was open she walked to the guard tower.
She sat in the guard tower, tears started to roll down her face. She pulled out her knife. She held it tightly between both of her hands. She heard the sound of someone coming up the ladders. Daryl pushed the trap door open. She jammed the knife into her stomach. "NO!" he shouted
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." She trailed off into sobs. He ran out onto the balcony of the guard tower.
"HELP! I NEED A DOCTOR!" Daryl shouted at the top of his voice, fighting back tears.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..." She said again and again.
"Shh, shh, shh." He cupped her cheek in his hand and wiped the tears away from her face. "It's ok. I called for a doctor, someone will be here soon... What happened out there? With the walker."
"I didn't see a point." she said, struggling to breath.
"Carol there is always a point, you're loved, by everyone."
"Daryl, I killed Karen and David. I'm sorry. I thought it would stop the disease."
"It's ok. You made a mistake, everyone makes mistakes." He tried not to sound shocked. "Carol...I love you."
"I love you too." She said smiling and laughing slightly, as tears continued to roll down her cheeks. Doctor S barged through the trap door and started helping Carol. "She will be ok. She just needs rest, I don't suggest moving her right now." he said after a few hours.
"Thanks." Daryl answered.
Hope you enjoyed...the next one should be up soon 3 3 :P :P :3 :3 LOVE YA!
