Just a one-shot feel good fic. If it gets enough requests, I might make it into a full story.
Lee had been bitten. Clementine didn't know what to do. Shoot him so he doesn't turn into one of those damn things, or leave him there to turn. It was too much to ask of her.
She shook her head. "I can't, Lee. I'm sorry."
He nodded, weakly. "It's okay, Clem. You don't have to do this. All you have to do is go find Omid and Christa. They'll keep you safe."
She turned to leave. "Lee..." she started, tears forming. "I love you."
He smiled. "I love you too, Sweet Pea."
She left, leaving him alone.
At least, so he thought. He realized he was wrong, when an orange heart with flaming wings shot into him, to fast for him to even try to dodge. He then saw a kid, around his early twenties, run up to him.
"That got you, right?" He asked. The kid had orange hair, but not ginger orange, like a flame colored orange. His eyes were red, matching the color of his shirt and shoes. He also wore a plain pair of jeans.
"Hello?!" He said waving his hand in front of Lee's face, bringing him back to reality. "Did that hit you?" He asked again.
Lee nodded. "Y-yeah, what-t was it an-nyway?"
He smiled. "Phoenix's Charm: Rise From the Ashes. It brings you back to life after you die. I can only use it once a year though, so that's a setback." He looked over, only to notice he was talking to a walker. "Eh, might as well take care of that."
He conjured up a small fireball, and shot it at the walker, obliterating it, leaving ash and scorched ground. Then, an orange triangle opened up, and Lee crawled through.
"I'm Phoenix, by the way. Say hello to your new partner. But enough chit-chat, don't we have a girl to find?"
