Clem's POV

I slowly opened my eyes. My vision was blurry at first but then I gathered my surroundings. I noticed that my right hand was attached to a metal pole with handcuffs. (Just Like Lee).

"Well hello there." A voice came from my left. "I'm Jason." He then pointed to two other people, one tall guy and one rather chubby guy, "These guys are called Lennie and George." (IF NOBODY GETS THIS REFERENCE IM GOING TO CRY! Lennie & George)He came closer to me and knelt down, "We just wanna know where you are held up. We are looking for some supplies."

"F#ck. Off." I said.

"You don't wanna test us little girl." 'George' said. "You don't wanna make the boss angry." I just glared at him. George sighed and sat down at a desk and started tapping on the wood, probably out of boredom.

"What we gonna do with her Jason?" Lennie asked. He was rather tall, had brown hair and brown eyes. Kinda like Luke's I guess. And then there was Jason in front of me, he has wavy black hair and he just shorter than Lennie. His eyes were blue, but not like Nick's icy blue colour. In all honesty though, he was pretty good-looking.

"Not gonna do anything to her unless she tries anything." Jason replied.

"I'm alone." I said.

"No you aint. I know you aint." Jason glared at me.

"Well I wish I was..." I muttered.

"Huh?" He questioned.

"I caused em enough grief. I pretty much betrayed em." I mentioned. It was true, I pretty much lost most of their trust. He sighed and stood up. He then scratched his head and said,

"Well why didn't you just leave?"

"Cant. Would've been tracked by the group 'leaders' and probably would've killed me or just made me do A LOT of work." George then stood up and walked towards me and Jason,

"Come on man. She aint no use, lets just kill her." He said harshly.

"Shut up George." Jason snapped. "Look. You and Lennie go outside and f#cking check where those two idiots are." George reluctantly walked out with Lennie not too far behind him. Jason then said,

"He can be an asshole sometimes. George is the one who brought you here." He then put his hand behind his back, I was expecting him to pull out a gun or a knife or something. But no. He pulled out a set of keys. "You're tough. For a little girl."

"I'm NOT a little girl. I'm like 18, maybe 19." I corrected. He rolled his eyes. "Why do you stay here? With these guys?" I asked.

"Well. Me and Lennie got some history. We been friends since I was about 8. I'm 22 now and Lennie 24. George, he's just some ass me and Lennie met in highschool. He's a tough b#stard though, so we brought him along. Could use some extra back-up in a world like this."

"Yeah I guess. Are there any other people here?" I asked as he was unlocking the handcuffs.

"Yeah. Couple of others." He said as he placed the keys back in his pocket. "Got someone called Slim. He's like the biggest redneck I have ever met. He's pretty much worthless though, don't do nothing to help. Then there's Curley, he doesn't help in ANY situation. He just makes it worse. God I wish I could just, leave here. F#ck these guys. I'd rather kill myself than spend another day in this cramped up building with them."

"Heh. Maybe you should join our group." I joked.

"Well that wouldn't be too bad would it. I'd get to see your pretty face everyday." He said as he stood up and walked towards the door. I feel as if he just flirted with me, bit weird but... okay... he opened the door slowly and peered out of it. "Alright. Follow me. And be quiet." He motioned for me to get up and follow. I stood up and walked towards him.

"Why are you helping me?" I asked in confusion.

"Well. I never wanted to keep you here in the first place. Just cuz the world is the way it is now, doesn't mean that anyone's got the right to take people hostage." I nodded and followed him down a hallway. Surprisingly there wasn't anyone around. We made it to a door and he opened it, I was his with the brightness from the full moon that sat in the sky. "F#ck. Didn't realise how dark it was." Jason said.

"Guess I can't send you out there on your own so..." He walked outside and I followed him. "Come on lets go."

"What if you're lying and you just wanna know where I'm held up?"

"Fine. Go on your own if you want." He said. I looked around.

"Well. To be honest I have no idea where we are." I confessed.

"What if I just take you back to that building George found you at? He told us where it was, shouldn't be too hard to find." he said. I smiled and nodded. He gave a small smile back and we walked off into the woods.

Nick's POV

"Alright! Lights out! If any of you are up in the next ten minutes, you'll regret it." Troy's voice echoed. We all lay down on our bunks but then the gate opened. Carver then walked in and said,

"Now I know that Clementine has gone missing. Hell she is one of the best group workers here, she'll make it back. But if she doesn't I'm sending some of you to go out tomorrow looking for her. No ifs and no buts... Thats that." He shouted and then exited. Closing the gate behind him.

"Hell." Luke whispered. "Clem's got a few things in her backpack."

"What the f#ck Luke. Why you rummaging through her bag?" I questioned. Luckily noone else could hear.

"I dunno. She got a picture in here of a man and a drawing of what looks like a family." Luke continued looking in the bag, I swiftly grabbed it, zipped it up and threw it away from him. "Jesus man. Calm down." He then lay flat on his back and stared into space. I turned myself so I was laying on my side, I then slowly closed my eyes.

Clem's POV

I stuck behind Jason, we were walking for what seemed like hours. But then a building came into view. But it wasn't the building that I was taken from. It was Howe's, where my group was.

"How did you know where it was?" I asked.

"Only I know. I saw it a few days ago and I recognised you. I remembered the hat." he said. "Well uh. I guess I'll see ya soon. Or ya know. Maybe never." Jason said as he started to walk back into the forest.

"Wait. Wont the rest of the group get p#ssed at you cuz you let me go?" I asked.

"Yeah."

"You should just stay. You said it yourself, you didn't wanna be with those guys anymore."

"I uh-" He began. "Will everyone else be okay with it?" He questioned.

"They'll just have to deal with it." I stated. Jason then smiled at me, and I smiled back. His smile was pretty cu-. Wait. What? I coughed and we both walked towards the big doors that led into Howe's. I knocked on the door. Troy's voice came through,

"Who is it?"

"Shut up Troy and let me in." He then opened the door and raised an eyebrow,

"Jesus what happened to you Clem?" He then looked at Jason and asked, "Whos this?"

"This is uh- this is Jason. He helped me get back here. And I wanna talk to Bill about letting him stay here." I said. Troy glared at me but then motioned for us to follow. Jason shut the door and we followed Troy.

We made it to Carver's office door and I stepped in with Jason, Troy waited outside. I shut the door and we both took a seat in front of Carver's desk.

"Well well well. Look who made it back." Carver began. "And who's this?"

"I'm Jason." Jason replied. Carver looked over him and said,

"Well. We do need another pair of hands to help us. So, if you want you can stay. But you gotta stay in the pen with everyone else for a while."

"Sure. No problem. Thanks." Jason replied.

"Clem. Take him to the pen, and get to bed. Got a long day ahead of us tomorrow."

"Sure Bill." I said and stood up. Jason followed me to the pen. "Listen. Some people in here. They don't take too kindly to newcomers soooo, just go easy on em. They'll warm up to you sooner or later."

"Don't worry about it." Jason said. I opened the gate to the pen and we both entered. Immediately, everyone looked up.

"Holy sh#t. Clem you're alright?" Luke asked shocked. I smiled.

"Damn. You are tough." Nick commented. Surprised he's talking to me. Everyone greeted me and asked about the new guy. He explained what happened and mentioned that his name was Jason. I lay down on my bunk near Jane and Mike, I motioned for Jason to follow. There was a spare bunk near mine.

"Jesus Clem. Thought we lost ya," Mike said. "Hey nice to meet you Jason. I'm Mike."

"Jane." Jane said. Jason said it was nice to meet them too, he then lay down on his bunk.

"Night J. Night Jane. Night Mike." I said. They all side "Night." Simultaneously. I slowly closed my eyes.

Luke's POV

"Don't get jealous, Nick." I said.

"I'm not jealous." Am I?
