Year 2

Day 369

It's been 2 years

2 years since they started looking

2 years, and they only found a little girl

2 years and X hadn't speak to them

2 years and they looted the entire city

2 years and the city was clean of life but theirs

2 years… and they didn't know what to do

The three survivors were now established on an apartment, they barricaded all the doors that lead to the rooms, excluding the room 101, which was the last and the one the survivors are living in now.

Isaac was on the roof of the apartment, thinking on what they should do now

Samus was chatting whit Clementine about her school days, she and Clem had become real close, Samus was fulfilling her maternal needs that every woman had, and Clementine had some kind of mother-daughter relationship whit Samus, which she missed from her post-apocalyptic days.

They also changed clothes since the winter has arrived (except for Isaac who was already wearing an artic suit, but still he covered himself whit a dark cloak that covered his entire body and he now rarely used his helmet), Samus started wearing a dark brown jacket and ammo belts around her waist and left leg, Clementine changed her dress for a white t-shirt and jeans, she wore her red hoody

-Isaac!

The engineer thoughts were interrupted by Samus´s yell coming from inside the building

-What?!

Isaac yelled back

-We are out of sugar could you get some!?

Isaac laughed at this, a little laugh, that request almost sounded like if he had to buy sugar so they can have a tea party, like if things were normal.

But he didn't have to buy sugar, he had to loot it, they weren't going to have a tea party, they were going to use it in some explosives.

Everything was abnormal which already was normal.

But Isaac shrugged this thoughts of his head and jumped from the building

His boots turned on right before crashing on the floor to decrease speed, and finally landed on the floor harmless.

He walked calmly, anyway in the past few days they exterminated almost all the undead in the city, although others came from the outsides of this city, but that was a rare event

He held in his hand a nice looking desert eagle fully loaded whit silencer, a little scope, laser point and an extended loader. He didn't like long gun really much, but just in case he carried an AA-12 held thigh in his back, covered by his dark cloak. He couldn't find any plasma magazines or universal ammo, so his plasma cutter was in his inventory useless.

His weapon examination was interrupted by the sound of a pistol being shot, right next to the supermarket Isaac was about to loot

-Well this great coincidence, hope it's a survivor or I'll be dammed if those creatures can use guns

The engineer said to no one particularly

He ran in the building at the right of the supermarket, which was musical instrument shop called "Sax".

He entered the door to see what looked like an ubermorph trying to get of its back a dog which was biting it hard, while a man whit brown hair, blue and yellow jumpsuit armored whit some leather pieces, the jumpsuit said 101, the man had his legs torn apart from his body and his right arm looked broken while only his face and left arm looked only whit a few scratches

Isaac took out his AA-12 and shot the ubermorph (being careful to not damage the dog) until it was sliced in half by the weapon bullets, and looked dead

The dog ignored Isaac and went to comfort his agonizing master by licking its face and cuddling whit him. The man looked and Isaac and then at the dog

-Look, I know I don't even know you but, can you take care of Dogmeat

The man said, Isaac guessed "Dogmeat" was the dog that was cuddled whit the man

Isaac thought for a moment, maybe a dog could help the morale back whit the girls, plus it would be a favor to a poor man last wishes, on the other side, it would be another mouth to feed and also the dog may be too aggressive whit unknown people

But he said:

-O-ok

The man looked thankful and looked at the dog

-Do-Dogmeat, this man is going to take good care of you, I will stay here okay

The dog looked sad and also seemed to understand what the man was saying, (which Isaac found weird)

The dog cuddled even more whit his owner not wanting to be separated from him

The man took his head whit his hand and talked to the dog

-No Dogmeat you will not be safe…

The man paused to breath

-…Without someone to take care of you, and you can take care of this man like if it was me ok?

The dog looked at his owner, he whimpered in sadness but left his owner and went to Isaac´s side and sat

Isaac was amazed whit the dog obedience and loyalty

-Good dog Dogmeat, good dog, good…

The man said until he lost consciousness and finally died because of his injuries, Isaac couldn't have done anything, the man was just too much damaged

He grabbed the man´s body, and the dog grunted

-Relax I am going to bury him

Isaac said calmly and the dog stopped grunting and just followed the engineer to the street and to the backyard of the supermarket which had a garden

*Obviously whoever who ran this used to live here*

Isaac thought he left the body on the garden and went inside the store to search for a shovel

He found one pretty rusty

He went outside again to find the dog already digging a hole with its front legs

Dogmeat was almost finished with the hole but Isaac helped it with the shovel anyway

When they finished Isaac moved the dead man in the hole and then he buried the body

He then grabbed the sugar from the supermarket and went outside to the streets but he noticed the dog wasn't following him

He returned back at the garden to find the dog sitting right next to its master´s buried body

This dog was special, back at his home dogs weren't like this, although there weren't many dogs since they were almost extinct

Isaac whistled, which caught Dogmeat´s attention

The animal looked at the grave, then at Isaac, then back at the grave and finally got up and went again by Isaac´s side

The engineer started walking to his apartment alongside Dogmeat

Samus was drawing whit Clementine whit some coal pieces they had, they used them as black pencils

None of them were really skilled at drawing but at least Clementine had some practice, Samus had never drawn before and her drawing looked like a two year old kid

-What is that?

Clem asked pointing at Samus´s weird draw

-It's my varia suit

Samus answered

-Doesn't looks like the one you told me of

Clem said whit a puzzled face

-Oh yeah? What did you draw?

Samus asked

Clementine showed her draw:

It wasn't really well drawn but you could recognize Isaac, Clementine and herself in the drawing

Besides the drawing, there was written "My new family" whit some spelling mistakes

Samus felt bad for Clementine, Her parents died, Lee died, and now her world was destroyed, that's too much for a little girl

But Samus also was thankful for this to happen, because she had the chance to meet her and take care of her.

That little girl was…

*Ñiiiiiic*

The door suddenly opened showing Isaac with the pack of sugar, but something was at his side something furry ad four legged

Clementine face lighted up as she saw the dog beneath Isaac

She grabbed the cookie she was eating and ran to the dog

-Hi buddy!

She said as she kneeled besides Dogmeat, who lifted up his head to see a little girl offering he a cookie

Dogmeat gently took the cookie whit his mouth, taking care of no biting the girl

She smiled as she saw the dog eating the cookie

Dogmeat suddenly felt kind of happy and licked Clementine´s cheek whit his tongue

-Where did you get that dog?

Samus questioned happily

-Its name is Dogmeat and a guy who was about to die asked me to take care of him

Isaac answered a little sad for the guy

-Well Clementine sure looks happy for Dogmeat, Thanks a lot Isaac!

Samus cheerily said, and leaned in to give Isaac a kiss in the cheek

The engineer was surprised by this, and so was Samus, she just didn't know why she did that

Clementine was looking at the time she kissed Isaac and laughed

-Tee Hee He

She laughed

Samus´s face was turning red, as for Isaac´s face it had slightly red cheeks

They both avoided visual contact and there was uncomfortable silence

-Ahh… Here´s the sugar you asked for

Isaac changed the subject

-OH!... thanks I'll go to my room to made those explosives

She went to her room and closed the door behind her

Isaac blinked and went to the roof again

Dogmeat looked at Clementine puzzled

Clementine looked back at the dog smiling

-Yeah there is something between those two

Clementine suggested

She made the dog to get in and closed the door

Okay that's it for now folks: D3

Well two years have passed and it seems like Isaac and Samus are in the middle of something

Anyways hope to get your reviews saying your opinions

SERIUSLY IT WOULD BE COOL SOME:

"Good story dude, keep it up"

"Nice job, man"

"You just made my day"

"FUCK YOU AND YOUR LAME STORY"

IS THAT SO MUCH ASKING?!
