Cleo's P.O.V

We were walking back to camp. I felt my stomach boiling, partly because Kim was stupid enough to leave, and partly because that boy yelled at her.

"Why did you leave?" I asked her. Putting my hand on her shoulder.

She took it off, "I'm bored of being cramped up in that tent."

"But you could've died!" I say. "Who is that boy?"

"He tried shooting me." She says, "Wow, that came out bad. Uh, he's lost."

"Okay. But I don't want you by him. He seem's dangerous."

"Really Cleo?! He's fine, you're acting like he's a murderer."

"If he isn't he was about to be." I say. She scoffs and runs away. Rikki and Bella come from behind me.

"It's fine, Cleo." Bella says.

"I know. It's just, I'm stressed." I say, and start to tear up.

"I know, you can talk about it." Bella says.

"Our powers. I can't use it in front of Kim, or the new guy. What would they think?"

"I'm pretty sure you can use you're powers. It's not like any one will do test on you now, or can." Bella says. I smile and walk off.

Carl's P.O.V

"Why are you here?" A man asked.

"I already told you!" I yelled. "I'm lost."

"Okay. Fine." A girl came in and he got up and whispered something to her.

The girl came in and said, "I'm Cleo."

I stayed quiet. I guess she didn't notice, or didn't care, because she kept going.

"Do you want help finding you're group?" She asked.

"Yes." I said.

"Then stay here, we'll feed you, hel-"

"No, I can't stay here." I said.

"We'll feed you and-"

"No!" I said.

"Then you're going to die!"

"Fine." I snapped out.

Kim's P.O.V

I sit by the fire Lewis made. Cleo comes out of a tent and annouces, "Were leaving on the road today. And we also have a new group member."

I go into the tent that Cleo came out of. Carl is in there.

"Hi, are you part of our group now?" I ask.

"Not for long." He says.

I sit down by him. "So how old are you?" I ask. It's a stupid question, he probaly doesn't even know since no one's kept time. Well, I have. But I'm sure he hasn't. But, at least it starts a conversation.

"I'm fourteen." He says.

"I'm sixteen." I say.

Cleo makes us pack up. And then were on the road again. We find a small house to camp out in, it has a small supply of food. But it'll do for now.

We all sleep in the frontroom. Except for Cleo, who's upstairs keeping watch with Lewis. I go upstairs to go to the bathroom, when I hear Cleo.

"I just can't keep this secret anymore." I put my ear to the door to hear more, "It's just so frustraiting, and it's the only way I can fight the walkers."

"Then I'll teach you too use a weapon." Lewis says.

Cleo's P.O.V

Everyone's asleep, which is good. So, I stare out of the window. I see someone, I never expected to see again. Walking across the road. I thought they died, it was...

A cliffhanger! Yay! Sorry the focus has beeen about Carl and Kim, the upcoming chapters is more about the mermaids ;)
