Chapter 2
The woman looked at the ground for a few minutes before she turned her attention back to Rick. "Are you sure that you don't mind?"
Rick shook his head "Of course not. You were going to make sure that Judith was going to be with someone that made sure that she was going to grow up to be a woman. I'm Rick by the way, and this is my son Carl and you've already met little Judith here."
The woman smiled at them and said "My name is Lacey. I've been on my own for a long time and I hope that I'm not going to be a burden to you."
Rick smiled and together the four of them left the prison never looking back.
As they walked for a few minutes they heard the sound of a walker to their left. Rick looked over at Carl and Lacey and gave them hand signals to them.
Lacey went around the side that Rick told her that she should go around and as she did, she pulled out the knife that she had hidden inside of her boot. But as soon as she got close to the walker, she tripped and fell directly in front of the walker. The walker bent down and went for Lacey's arm, but before it could bite her, Rick who took the middle when the three spread out shot the walker in the head.
Lacey lifted up her head because she was afraid that she was going to bit. Rick bent down and helped Lacey up as Carl ran up to them. "Are you ok?" Rick asked as he made sure that Lacey wasn't bit.
"I'm fine, Rick. I'm just clumsy is all." Lacey said as she looked into Rick's eyes.
Just then they heard the sound of rustling in the bushes that wasn't all that far from where they were standing. Rick held up his hand motioning them Lacey and Carl to stay with Judith while he checked it out. He turned the corner and he saw Daryl Dixon staring at him. "Daryl, what are you doing here?"
Daryl laughed as he hugged Rick. "I heard the walker and thought that I'd come kill it, but I see that my services were not needed."
Rick laughed and then looked over at Lacey and Carl and motioned them to come over to where he was. As soon as they got there and Daryl saw Carl and Judith he hugged both of them tightly and then he noticed Lacey and pointed a gun to her head.
Sorry about the cliffhanger. But I thought that it was a good place to end. Thanks to the 1 review and follower. I won't let you down with the story and I promise that Judith is going to stay alive through the whole story. I don't have the heart to kill her.
