AN: Hello again! Thanks for the reviews! So this chapter... I think it's shorter than the last, which I apologize for. When you write on an iPod, things tend to be short. All-in-all, this chapter does not do me proud. Well, here you go...


Chapter Two

She turned towards the man. The tall, dark-haired man had his gun aimed at her head. She dropped her arms, sighing quietly, relieved. He examined her from head to toe, his blue eyes lingering in her wounded shoulder.

'Are you bit?' he asked. Her eyes darted to look at her left shoulder, blood already seeping though her shirt. 'No. One of your bastards shot me.' She replied, sizing him up. She wasn't going to risk anything, seeing as she was already weakened and he could easily over power her. He lowered his weapon slightly.

'Hand it over.' he said, referring to her rifle, which was lying on the ground next to her. 'Why should I?' She replied, narrowing her eyes. She reached behind her, gripping her knife. She knew it wouldn't help but it made her feel better. 'Do you want to get that looked at or not?' he said, nodding at her left shoulder. She bit her bottom lip. Did she? Well, yeah, but she didn't want to accept help from someone with a gun in her face.

'How do I know you won't shoot me?' she inquired. She knew it was possible and didn't want to be unarmed. It made her uncomfortable. The man holstered his gun. 'See. Now hand it over.' She reluctantly picked up the rifle and handed it to him. 'Knife too.' She sighed, slightly annoyed and handed him her hunting knife.

'Now come with me.' he ordered, gripping her right arm and dragging the hesitant girl to the prison. She followed him, slightly nervous. Well then, this is it. As they approached the prison, she noticed a brown-haired kid at the kid. Confusion gleamed in her green eyes.

The boy pulled open the gate, letting the man leading her into the main grounds, shutting the gate quickly behind them. 'Who's that?' the kid asked. The man raised a brow, waiting for her answer. 'Cory.' She answered, using her middle name. Everyone seemed to call her by that name anyway, she wasn't a big fan for her first name anyway. 'I'm Rick and this is Carl.' the man said. I nodded as we started towards the prison again.

As Cory was drug into the prison, flanked by Rick and Carl, they approached by another man. He watched Cory apprehensively, glaring at them. 'Who the hell is this?' he asked angrily. 'You can't jus' bring in random people, 'specially one of them.' Cory's jaw tensed. Something about this guy was familiar to her. Rick pulled the man aside, leaving her with Carl. She glanced at the kid, catching his stare.

'Whatchya looking at?' she asked, folding her arms across her chest. 'N-nothing.' Carl said, quickly diverting his eyes to the ground. Cory nodded, leaving it alone. Rick came back, the other guy in tow.

'C'mon. Let's get your shoulder looked at.' Rick said, leading her toward where his group was staying.
