A/N: and here is my apology! A second chapter the same day to make up for the boring previous one. (I know this does nothing to consolidate the people of the future but...I hate the future, how come you guys don't bring us back jetpacks with your awesome time machines?)

The Meeting Place, 7 hours and 23 minuets after Carver's Death

"You're telling me your arms ain't tired?" said Bonnie, as they approached

"Nope! I could do this all day." said Mike, cheerfully, holding both the containers of water

Their attention was drawn by Rebecca's screaming

"Shit, shit! Oh God..." she shouted as the trio ran over to her

"Breath like I told you." said Kenny

Sarah, who had graduated from sitting in the same place to standing at a different place, looked to the treeline in reaction to the loud zombie-like noises that were coming from it. She began having another mental breakdown. "Cle-Cle-Cle-Clementine!"

"Great, they must have been attracted by Rebecca." said Bonnie

"How did they get this close without anyone seeing them? Where the hell's Luke?" said Mike

"Kenny," said Clem, "We need to move Rebecca to the observatory."

Kenny looked down, then got up and marched toward the horde "You just keep that baby safe," he said darkly, holding his crowbar

"Clementine," said Rebecca, "Where's the observatory?"

"I'll show you," said Clementine

Bonnie helped Rebecca stand, and they moved to follow Clem

"Mike, make sure Kenny doesn't get overwhelmed!" she turned to Sarah without waiting for his response, "Sarah, follow us. It's time to go!"

Sarah nodded, meekly

Mike ran towards Kenny and the horde, while Clem, Sarah, Rebecca and Bonnie made their exit

On their way out, Bonnie looked back at Kenny, making a face when he began savagely beating a walker in the face

"I don't think he's alright..." she said

"He's protecting us!" said Clem

"Yea, sure..."

They kept walking. Mike smashed one last zombie in the face with his hammer, then turned to Kenny, "C'mon, it's time to go!"

They followed the group

The Observatory, 7 hours and 30 minuets after Carver's Death

They approached the building, the horde following eagerly, and Clementine ran up the stairs

There, she found Jane and Luke, cuddling inside talking about something of extreme unimportance

Upon noticing her, they became very awkward very fast. "Jesus, Clementine!" said Luke, embarrassed, "When did you..."

"What...the hell...are you doing here?" said Clementine, angrily

"Nothing, it's just..."

Bonnie and Rebecca walked by Clementine and into the room, followed by Kenny

"What the fuck are you two doing?!" he shouted

"Jesus, Kenny, what's going on?" said Luke

"We've got God knows how many zombies out there, thanks for keeping an eye out!" he walked by them angrily

"Wha-hold on!" said Luke, defensively, "Someone just tell me what's going on!"

"Luke, shut up!" said Clementine, moving to assist Rebecca

Rebecca gave a loud scream, and Luke finally figured everything out, "Oh man, I'm so sorry..."

Bonnie and Clem helped Rebecca lie down. Outside, Mike shouted that their pursuers were now up the stairs

"Here, I'll-" said Luke, walking toward Rebecca

"You wanna help, keep those things off of us," said Kenny, "In fact, same goes for everyone who's never delivered a baby."

They ran outside, Clem grabbed a pistol from Luke, and then placed herself in between Sarah and the gate while freaks tried to break through it

Her, and the rest of the shooters, opened fire on them

"We don't have enough bullets for this!" shouted Jane

The gate began to buckle on its hinges, and they abandoned shooting to just holding the gate shut

"Find something to block this with!" shouted Mike

"The canon!" shouted Clementine, running to push the canon on its wheels

"I'll help, I'm coming!" Luke ran to aid her

Then, while rolling the canon towards the gate, it broke through the wooden board it was standing on, taking the boards surrounding and the gate with it. Everyone stepped back a few paces

Then, one of the support lines for the balcony broke and half of the walkway collapsed. Jane almost fell, but managed to hang on by Luke's arm

That didn't concern Clem though, not as much as where Sarah was. Trapped underneath some boards, with the dead all around her

"Clementine, pull me up!" shouted Jane

"I have to save Sarah!" Clem shouted back

"There's no way she's coming back from that! Pull me up!"

"I can't let her die! Please, you have to try!" Clem looked to Jane, desperately

Jane looked down, made an annoyed sound, then dropped

Clementine used her pistol to cover, along with Bonnie and Mike, while Jane tried to lift the boards keeping Sarah down

No matter how hard she pulled though, Jane simply wasn't strong enough to lift the entire thing. "Sarah, you have to crawl out!"

Sarah kept twisting and screaming for help, "Sarah, please, you have to trust Jane!" Clem called down

Right after she said it, however, a plank of wood fell and knocked Jane right on the head

She fell back, and the dead closed in on Sarah

"NO!" Clem screamed, and was about to jump down,

"Luke, grab her!" Jane shouted up while recovering

Luke wrapped his arms around Clem and pulled her back, while Sarah screamed out for Clementine

Jane took one last look at Sarah, the dead right on top of her, and ran up a path of wooden planks leading up the observatory

Clementine bit Luke's arm to make him let go, and then ran towards the edge again, this time stopped by Mike and Jane.

"Clementine! Clementine, please! Help me! CLEMENTINE!" Sarah shouted, as a walker took a bite right out of her shoulder

Clementine pushed against Mike and Jane, she crawled underneath their arms and was just hanging off the edge with the combined strength of Mike, Jane, and Luke holding her back. She had a perfect view as the dead descended on Sarah.

Clementine went limp and stared helplessly, until the trio pulled her back inside

"I'm so sorry, Clementine...there was nothing I could do..." said Jane, placing a hand on Clementine's shoulder

Clem hardly heard her. She didn't hear anything. She walked backwards and into a wall, the slid down to sit. She stared strait ahead with the same shocked expression, dead to everything around her. All she could hear was Sarah's dying screams

Over, and over, and over
