Half of the credit goes to Hungergamesfangirl100, this story would probably not have been made without her. *THERE IS SOME SWEARING, SORRY ABOUT THAT.*

Clove's POV

Cato & Clove looked all around the district, no luck. Clove knew there wasn't any fuel in the district, but Cato persisted. By sundown, they had given up the search & decided to get some rest.

"Why don't we go check District One or Three? There must be some fuel there." Clove suggested.

Cato nods. "Or Five."

"Fine. I'll meet you back in that alleyway tomorrow. Get some sleep, you'll need it."

"I will. I'll bring you your armor tomorrow, too."

"Okay. See you." Clove turned to walk away & find a safe, abandoned apartment.


Clove woke up in a bed of an apartment she had found. Her pack by the bed, and her clothes clean. She took inventory of her pack & belts.

13 knives in her belt, a full canteen, a small tarp, five boxes of matches, some non-perishable foods & an extra jacket & belt.

She packed up all of her things, & headed out to the alleyway to meet Cato. She passed a few walkers on the way, but let them live. She needed to preserve her energy.

Clove leaned against a wall in the alley, patiently waiting for Cato.

Soon enough, Cato came walking to her with a large bag. She raised an eyebrow when she sees the bag. He hands her the bag, saying "Here's your payment, you're going to need it."

Clove sets the bag down, taking a quick survey of the contents, a full set of peacekeeper armor & some food.

"I didn't need all of this. I thought you were just getting me light armor." She picks the gloves out from the bag & puts them on. "These are good, though." She says while she packs the food in her backpack.

He nods "I keep my promises, even if it's you."

"Alright, you ready?" She puts the extra armor behind a dumpster to come back for later.

He nods then takes a gun and sword "I'm ready to fuck shit up"

She laughs. "As long as you don't fire that thing near me." She starts to walk out of the alleyway.

He nods and starts shooting then smirks "Whoops."

"Whoops is right." She says & glares at him, pulling her knives out as she hears a few of the walkers scream.

He smirks and pulls his sword out "Put the armor on."

"What? No, it'll just slow me down."

He glares at her "if you want to be safe, put it on!"

"I know how to fight & be safe." She glares back at him as she runs out of the alleyway to prevent from being cornered.

He nods as he sees walkers "here they come!"

"I'm not blind!" She calls back to him & throws a few knives, hitting the zombies square in the head. The walkers she hit slump to the ground as she slits more of their necks with her knives. "A little help here?"

Cato looks at her before slicing at them, flinging limbs & blood everywhere, more of the infected being attracted to the fight & replacing the ones who have been killed quickly.

"It's not worth it, just run! They'll keep coming!" Clove runs past Cato, grabbing his arm & tugging him after her.

"I've got your back." Cato runs after her while Clove clears a path for them as they run. She nods as they make their way through the district, avoiding the main streets. They slipped underneath the fence, and into the wilderness.


A/N: I'll try making the chapters longer, I know, I'm working on it, trust me.
