Before I start I want to say thank you, I'm uploading chapter 2 today because I've already had a few people say they like this so thanks :)

"Lee? Why did we leave Dylan?" Asked Clem in her sweet high pitch voice

Lee had no idea how he could answer that, even though this thing was just begining he knew how it would go: You get bit, you turn, you bite.

What had just happened? Lee kept thinking, just that morning he was online gaming or at least trying to every game server was messed up.

The two walked in silence but not for long because around every corner was another... what ever you want to call them.

"Where are we going Lee?"

"Away from town Clem"

"Oh, will mom and dad meet us there?"

"No Clem, no they wont but don't worry I'm sure they're ok"

They just kept walking, Lee tried to keep them off of streets but that was hard to do since he was walking through a suburban town and there weren't exactly any alley ways or back paths they could follow.

"Lee?"

"Yeah Clem, what is it?"

"Why are people biting each other?"

"Eh... they're just sick"

"Oh, is that what happened to Dylans mom? she got sick?"

"Yeah Clem"

"Shouldn't we take her to the emergency room?"

Even though his best friend had just died and he had killed his baby sitter Lee found that last question pretty funny, in a way he was jealous of Clem. She hadn't spent countless hours playing zombie games so she really had no idea what was going on. He figured that her naivety would sheild her from what was going to happen, at least for a little while.

"No Clem, Just Keep quite for a while, we can't get seen by them"

"What are they? I mean what should we call them, the biters?"

"How about we call them biters? Just make sure you keep away from them no matter what!"

After a while of walking and hiding they reached the outskirts of town. Lee decided it might be best to take her to the old Greene farm just a mile or two away from them. What would he tell them:

"Hello can we stay here tonight, we know you don't know us but the dead are trying to eat us"

on second thoughts Lee decided it was best just keep moving for a while and then when it came to it find somewhere to sleep.

They walked for around two and a half hours and it started getting dark.

"Lee I'm tired and my legs are sore"

"Ok just keep walking for another while and then you can go for a nap. For the life of him Lee couldn't think of somewhere to sleep, there was no way they could get back home now with the biters every where.

They were walking on a normally quite road, now a dead road there wasn't a car in sight and they hadn't seen one since leaving town.

They walked past a small park which only had a few rusty kids swings and a see-saw and a bench. Lee looked at it. It wasn't a suite at the four seasons but it would do.

Lee took off his jacket and put it on Clementine

"I know it's cold Clem but we have to sleep here tonight"

"Ok Lee but will we go home tomorrow?"

"I don't think so Clem"

"Lee I'm hungry"

"Me too, we can eat in the morning, goodnight Clem, I love you"

"goodnight Lee"

She fell asleep on the bench with head on Lees' lap. He stayed up all night incase any biters came their way but even if they did all they could do was run since none of them had any weapons. A million thoughts rushed through his mind. Clems safety, his parents were they alive or dead or even worse were they one of them? Dylan. Food. Where would they sleep tomorrow? Would they be alive tomorrow?

Luckily no biters made it to them during the night but both of them were starving, they hadn't eaten since lunch the day before.

"Come on Clem time to go we have to try and get some, I mean we have to go and get some food"

"You look cold, do you want your jacket back?"

"No you keep it just now, I'll be fine"

Once again they were walking down a road to nowhere. In the distance they could hear a car, it was coming from behind them and before they could hide it had pulled up near them. A woman got out. she was quite small and had long, straight brown hair, with big bulging brown eyes.

"Hello" she said "I'm Rachel, are you two ok?"

"Yes, we're just fine" said Lee in a voice more grown up than his own.

"Are you sure? Where are you kids headed?"

"I'm sorry but I don't know you from a stick in the mud and I don't think that's any of your business" he replied defensively

Lee moved Clem behind him.

"Well that's true, I know you shouldn't get into a car with strangers but we're headed away to my sisters and under the circumstances... do you kids want a ride any where?"

"No. No thank you"

"Well at least take some food, we don't know what the hell's goin' on and the least we can do is help".

She put her hand into the car and pulled out some break fast bars

"I know it's not much but-" she threw the bars over to Lee

"RACHEL! we need to get going, come on, you've gave them food, they don't want to come forget about them" Said a voice inside the car

"Ok, let's get out of here"

"Thanks" shouted Clem

"No problem" the woman squinted her eyes and then she bent over and pulled out a gun. She aimed it at Lee and Clem. She pulled the trigger

BANG

Lee and Clem both turned around and behind them was a dead biter.

"Sorry if I scared you that mother fucker almost bit you there"

"Thanks"

"Look this is your last chance, are you coming or not?"

Lee looked at Clem. That was too close a call that walker could have easily bit her there and even if it didn't what would they eat and where would they sleep?

"Ok, we'll come with you" he said still unsure if what he was doing was right

"Lee mom says we shouldn't get into cars with strangers"

"I know and normally we don't but this time it's ok"

The woman then said

"Great. Jump in the back with Tally"

They sat in the back of the SUV, it was one of those soccer mom vans. In the back was a girl that looked about Lee's age, maybe a year or two younger, she was roughly 12 years old. She had her mothers hair but big blue eyes rather than brown.

"Hi, I'm Tally"

"Hey, I'm Clementine and this is Lee"
