UPDATED VERSION OF CHAPTER 2! :D Ill be writing chapter 3 today too! So be on the look out for that everyone!
Chapter RATED M; For language, Gore, Death
RECAP:
I remember killing my first walker; that was one of the worst days I can remember…. it was one of my kids from the school. Having to put one those firemen's axes into sweet little Summer Harrisons' head scarred me good. She was my little volunteer who helped me out in my office. She was only 10 years old and wanted to be a nurse and help people just like me. Well look how that turned out; most of my kids are dead now thanks to those damn walkers. Everyone of them got torn to pieces infront of me as I tried to help them get away. Nearly everyone from the school got killed, all except a few of us. Well more like 4 teachers and a small handful of kids. I got separated on a run when our camp got attacked by those ugly bastards. Now there's only me, I've been on my own for months since this fucking outbreak. I've been camping on the car piled highway leaving Atlanta City, been here about a week. I've had a handful of walkers cross me during my time here. And I'm bloody sick of them and their fucking rancid smell. I haven't seen any living person for fucking months. Maybe I'm one of the last people on earth? If I am, fine. But I want off this god damn highway! I'm sick of it. I'm tired of running and hiding from them I want to find a safer place then this fucking highway. Sometimes i hope a car passes by and i could tag along. But who would trust anyone these days? I sure as fuck done. So i don't except trust from anyone who doesn't know me, trust isn't something that can be easily given now. If you trust the wrong people you can get yourself raped or killed, but most likely both. Ill be damned if that happens to me.
Chapter Two: Well shit, you are alive.
Jane tightly clutched her axe in her hand as the skin on her knuckles turned white from her tight grasp. She kept her head on the ground as the slow dragging feet of the Walkers past by her. She kept her other hand over her nose and mouth to keep from gagging or making any noise. When the herd passed, Jane crawled out from under the silver Toyota Tundra she was hiding under. She held onto her axe firmly as she quickly but slowly dash over the highway railing and to the grassy patched dirt hill beside it, keeping close to the cars and some ways away from the herd of Walkers. She followed after them for some yards behind them. After about 20 minutes of walking she heard a scream, a child's scream. Jane's face paled and her mouth went a gap, her eyes widening at the frighted scream.
'That could be one of my students!' She thought to herself terrified that one of her surviving students could be in danger.
She held her axe at the ready and ran for the scream as fast as her leather boot clad feet could take her. She ran over the highway rail darting between the cars holding her axe with both hands ready to slice at a Walker. Two Walkers that had fallen behind from the herd turned toward her snapping their jaws at her hungrily. She glared at them with venom in her gaze as she raised the axe giving a loud cry and brought her axe down on the first Walkers head, letting its blood and brain parts splashed onto her face and clothes. The second staggered over her trying to grab at her but she dodged. Jane eyes were ablaze as she brought her weapon out of the Walkers head blood dripping from her axe as the Walker tumbled to the ground. She then turned and behead the second letting its head roll as she jumped over them and continued to ran. She passed a few more Walkers on her way to the shouting, she cut them down as well. A RV soon came into her view as she kept on running. She started seeing people crowded around the rail of the highway, she spotted as grey haired woman sobbed into the shoulder of another woman with long brown hair. Jane stood back and watched for a bit as others gathered by the rail. She over heard the people talking so she listened in from her hiding spot.
"Sophia!" The grey haired woman sobbed as the brunette soothed her. Jane frowned sadly at the scene before her, as she heard them talk more.
"She's only 12, Lori...My baby is getting chased by Walkers." The woman cried again as the woman named Lori spoke.
"Don't worry Carol, they'll find her. Rick will find her." Lori soothed as she stroked Carol on the head. She hugged the shaking woman tightly again, Jane decided to make herself known. She slowly walked out of her hiding spot.
"Um...Excuse me. Is everything alright? I heard screaming and-" She was stopped short by two guns in her face held by a man with curly black hair and a blonde girl. The two were glaring at her as she slowly lowered her axe onto the ground and held up her hands. She sighed her lips forming a thin line and her brow knitted together clearly annoyed.
"Who are you? What do you want?" Asked the blonde girl with a scowl, Jane glared at her as she opened her mouth to speak.
"My name is Jane. And i heard screaming and came to see if i could help. I'm not here to hurt anyone" She glared at the blonde. The man then stepped forward his gun still in her face making Jane growl in anger.
"Why would you help people you don't know. How can we trust you? How do we know you don't have a group hiding around here" The man growled, Jane bared her teeth back at him.
"Because there's not many of us left. So excuse me for wanting to help someone. And for your information, asshole. I'm alone. I haven't seen a living person in months! " She growled back. The man glared at her and raised his gun like he was going to shoot her. But before he could his group yelled at him to drop his gun. The man scoffed and lowered his gun storming away from her. She glared at him as he went, an older man soon came to her side as she lowered herself to pick up her axe from the ground. She looked up the older man as her glare softened.
"I'm sorry about him, we never see many people...well alive these days." The older man said as he looked at her with a small smile. "I'm Dale, you said your name was Jane?"
"Well it's Mary-Jane. But just call me Jane, please." She said giving him her right hand to the old man to shake that he took quickly and shook it. She looked over at the rest of the group, she spotted a wounded black man and the two women and a young boy. Dale turned toward his group and smiled.
"Everyone! This is Jane." Dale smiled as Jane smiled alittle at anyone. Jane looked at the small group and looked at Dale.
"Are there more in your group? I heard a man named Rick is in the woods looking for who ever screamed?" She asked looking around at the small group as Dale nodded. He then told her that there were two other members. She nodded as she looked at the two when she heard from earlier. She gave the sobbing woman sad smile, she then looked up at the brunette.
"I'm Jane, what happened here? Who screamed?" She asked gently and the sobbing woman looked up at her.
"My baby...my daughter Sophia, she got chased off by two Walkers..." She sniffled, as Jane gave her a pat on the shoulder.
"Dont worry shell be found. I can help...and I'm sure who ever that Rick man is...He'll find your little girl." She smiled as the woman started to cry again as she thanked her. Jane nodded as she heard rustling in the bushes in the woods. She looked at the trees quickly holding her axe up ready to attack anything that came out of those woods. She soon saw two men walk out of the woods. Her face dropped as the man with the crossbow and the scowling face came into view.
"No fucking way. Daryl Dixon? Well shit. You are alive. Now why am i not surprised?" She said sheathing her axe onto her belt and crossed her arms as the two men noticed her. Daryl stopped for a moment, his intense blue eyes focused on her and he cursed loudly.
"Fucking shit." Daryl said glaring at her with anger as she gave him a scowl that mirrored her own anger as everyone looked between the two very confused.
