I woke up on top of a car surrounded by hundreds of clickers. With Lachlan, Sam and Ellie.

We fired round after round into the swarm only killing a few of them. One grabbed Lachlan's leg and pulled him away screaming. Then Sam suffered a similar fate. Only Ellie and I were left and we fought against the infection.

She was grabbed by the monsters and I tried to pull her back in vain. Her screams sending a chill down my spine.

"Ellie, No!", I yelled, "Come at me you mother fuckers." There was no surviving this.

Eventually a clicker grabbed my ankle and pulled me into the horde. I still fought against them. I fell next to Ellie's ravaged corpse only identifiable by the red she wore during the summer and closed my eyes as a one of those things bit at my jugular.

"Daniel, Daniel!"

I opened my eyes to see Ellie shaking me.

"Ellie," I said eyes tearing.

"Bad dream huh?" She asked as she hugged me.

"Yeah, you, Lachlan, Sam and I were on a car swarmed by clickers and we were picked off one by one until it was me and then I fell next to your mutilated body." My felt a tear roll down my face.

"It's ok, its only a dream."

"Promise me that you wont leave me like the other two."

"I promise." She hugged me tighter.

We sat there for awhile in each other's arms.

"Oh that's right, all this serious talk and I forgot about this." She pulled out two vials of liquid.

"Where did you get that?"

"I went on a hunt while you were sleeping and found them."

"How long have you been back?"

"Long enough to treat him," she pointed at the mattress that her guardian was lying on, "he should be alright in a day or two."

"That's good to hear."

"You could probably take that bandage off your head too."

I remembered how I almost got killed at Tommy's dam three months ago.

"Since you're the one who done it up I reckon you should be the one to take it off."

She untied the knot holding the bloody bandage to my head.

"Ow, that hurt." She peeled of the piece of cloth that had stuck it self to my head.

She giggled at my reaction. "That funny eh?"

"Maybe?" she replied with a grin on her face.

"I'll show you what's funny." I said as I picked her up and carried her over my shoulder, "What does the world look like upside down?"

"What do you think."

"The wrong way around?"

"No, it looks perfectly normal," she stated sarcastically, "but all my blood is rushing to my head."

I put her back down and kissed her, "I love you."

"I love you too." She replied after she kissed back.
