The Walking Ed
Part two: Finding a Clementine
After backing up until they hit a backporch the group begin to catch there breath but with the amount of zombies it was only a matter of time until they knock down the fence but thankfully the four were extreamly lucky today.
Several gunshots were heard in the distance which drawn the attention of the hoard and just as soon they were banging on the fence they stopped and left to find the unlucky one with the gun.
"Was that more gunfire are there even more of those undead creatures?" Double D said his enthusiasm for these creatures have been replaced with fear and worry.
"I don't know... All I know is those monsters aren't our problem anymore, I fell sorry for whoever has to deal with those things though." Eddy said quite relieved.
"My comics were right, The undead have comeback for revenge and to eat all of our beef jerky and destroy our toilets, Its the end of the da-" Eds mouth was soon covered by Eddy to get him to shut up. "Shut up lumpy do you want them to come back."
Lee has gotten up by now and began to yell for help hoping someone would hear him. "Hello? Anybody?" Nothing, well yelling wasn't going to do anything so Lee began looking around for help and the first thing to catch his eye was a tree house, him and the Eds walked towards in hope someone was up there.
"Do you think anyone is up in that wreck?" Eddy asked clearly not impressed with this tree house it pailed in comparison to the tree house the Eds made a while back.
Well thats rude Eddy, but I think you are right from what we can tell the undead ruffins while are able to move around and about. They appear to only have basic motor functions since instead of climbing over the fence like us they tried to knock it down. So being able to climb up a tree seems very unlikely.
"What do you mean we climbed over last I checked Ed tossed you over since it would of taken you forever to do it. Eddy said this with a coi smile. Double D gave Eddy a glare.
"I have an idea of who, but only one way to find out though" Lee said before shouting up to see if they react. "Hey little girl you up there can you help us? We're not those things... Guess it's empty."
Why did you think theres a little girl up there ?
Well before we were attacked by those monsters I saw a little girl on top of the hill asked her to get us some help, but I don't see her anywhere just hope she's ok.
"So what do we do now new friend Lee?" Ed asked not sure what to do.
Well I guess we have to check the house for help since right now it's our only option.
As Lee and the Eds turn around they took in the sight of the house and it was nothing special it was a very simple two-story suburban house so making way up the porch Lee knocked on the sliding glass door. "Hello? Anybody home? We need a little help." After waiting a few second and getting no response Lee decides to open the glass door and they enter the house.
Let's hope no more of the undead are hidding in the most darkest corners of this house and rip our insides out of our noses and our butts guys.
... Yeah let's hope not lumpy.
Let's really hope that we find help and no more of those... things.
"Coming in. Don't shoot, ok?" After the group enter the house Lee grunted in pain because of his wound in his leg. "Ahhh, shit. Hello? we're not intruders or one of them. But after getting a good look inside the house it was clear this people weren't as lucky.
"I think this people need more help then us I mean look at this place." Eddy said pointing around the house it looked horrible there was overturn furniture; it looked kinda of ransacked and from the looks of it no ones been here for hours. "Its a dump."
"Yeah no kidding but let's hope we can get some help." Lee said only for him to get another wave of pain in his leg Double D noticed this.
you should really sit down putting pressure on your leg in the state its in is only going to make it far worse. Also we should look for something to help you get it clean up because we don't need it getting infected now do we.
Its ok Double D I've delt with worse before. I'll be ok, beside I don't think we're going to find anything in here from the looks of it the house been ransacked. Most likely anything worth of vaule has been taken we should just focuse on looking for help.
Ed and Double D decide to check out the living room while Eddy and Lee checked the kitchen only for Lee to slip on to the floor on a puddle of blood. He picked him self up and now is coverd in blood. Meanwhile Eddy was checking the drawers for anything and in one he found a walkie talkie.
Nice, Reminds me the time me Ed and Double D used walkie talkies to scam the suckers in the cul-de-sac it was my best scam every but the losers coudn't be happy with a fake raccoon cheapstakes.
Lee was drinking someone water he found on the counter which was great because he hasn't drink anything for a couple of hours of course after hearing what Eddy just said made him woundering what the hell he was talking about. "I'm sorry... What happened?"
Well it started after I taped a walkie talkie to the back of one of Eds model toys and calling myself Baron O' Beef Deep. I made Ed do some funny and stupid stuff but the scam happened after I got a great idea. You see after I got the idea of using walkie talkies to lure the suckers-
Ed and Double D were in the living room trying to find signs people are still here but with no luck. Double D saw hanged on the wall was a simple drawn picture framed meaning a child lived here "Oh dear I hope that child is ok I dare not imagine whats happen to them."
Double D took a quick look outside the window in hopes of seeing someone out there but there was nothing from the looks of it the whole neighborhood was deserted not even dogs were barking. "Where is everyone?" Was the only thing he could asked.
Ed then looked around and saw something that always excited him T.V. "Oh boy happy days T.V." Ed rushed over and quickly graped the remote however Double D noticed the blue screen which ment only one thing.
"I'm sorry Ed but the cable is out so we won't be able to watch anything but that does raise some questions of why this is happing." Double D realize Ed had a very sad look on his face.
But Double D Revenge of Evil Tim's Uncle Twiced Removed is playing today and I've been waiting months to see it.
I'm sorry Ed but we just can't watch it maybe on another T.V somewhere but for right now we need to look for supplies or help, Now chin up lets get back to looking for, well anything.
"Roger that captin Double D." Ed said saluting getting over the lack of T.V very fast which is normal for him to be honest. "I spy with my little eye some stairs just like in my room." They saw from the outside the house was a two story house so finding stairs was going to happen but unfortunately it was being blocked by a empty bookcase.
"Hmm, If we can move this obstacle the upstairs rooms will be open to use maybe we can find some supplies for Lee's leg because it's have very high chances of being infected. Ed do you mind trying to move it your far stronger then I." Double D asked who knows he couldn't dream to move it since his arms makes noodle arms look like a complement.
"Roger Roger Double D." Now Ed was very strong for his age most people didn't see it since he's a gentle giant but lifting stuff for his friends was something second nature to him, Ed was able to get the bookcase upright and then slides it all the way to the wall. Now with the bookcase out of the way the upstairs were free to be explore but they stopped after hearing a beeping from the answering machine they saw on the way in. They decided to check it out.
Eddy had just finished telling Lee about his best scam yet when they both hear the beeping from the answering machine and decided to check it out.
"Huh how did we not notice that? The flashing light is pretty easy to see." Eddy said looking at Double D. "Well we were looking for help so it makes sence for us not to notice it but I do wonder whats on it."
Lee presses the answer button and the messages begain to play.
Three new messages
Message one. Left at five-forty-three p.m.
Hey, Sandra this is Diana. We're still in Savannah. Ed had a little 'incident' with some crazy guy near the hotel, so we had to get him back to the ER and have it checked out. Anyway, he's not feeling well enough to drive back tonight, so we're staying an extra day. Thanks so much for looking after Clementine, and I promise we'll be back in time for your spring break!
"There are other Eds besides me that is amazing. Maybe he's my long lost brother" Ed said with excitement. "Shut it lumpy I want to hear this" said Eddy.
Message two. Left at eleven-nine-teen p.m.
Oh my God, Finally! I don't know if you tried to reach us; all the calls are getting dropped. They're not letting us leave and aren't telling us anything about Atlanta. Please, please, just leave the city and take Clementine with you back to Marietta. I've got to get back to the hospital. Please let me know that you're safe.
From how this message was going the desperation in the woman's voice was a clear sign stuff was going very very bad. They hoped the last message would be somehow better but they knew that was not going to happen. The last message played and it was worse then the last.
Message three. Left at six-fifty-one a.m.
Clementine? Baby, if you can hear this, call the police. That's 9-1-1. We love you... We love you... We love y-
Lee then saw a picture of the family picking it up and only felt remorse for these people.
"Daddy?" Everyone heard a female voiced which appered to becoming from Eddy. They all looked at Eddy who pulled the walkie talkie out of his back pocket and click the response button. "Hello this is Eddy?"
"You need to be quite." Eddy had given the walkie talkie to Lee who asked for it. "Are you ok?"
I'm ok. The mosnters tried to get me. But I'm hiding unitl my parents get home.
Everyone went dead quite because from the sound of the voicemail her parents most likely didn't make it. Having to tell a little girl her parents are dead is not easy. "Hello? Are you ok?" Lee quickly responed "Oh yeah we're ok."
What's your name?
I'm Clementine. This is my house.
"Hi Clementine. I'm Lee you already meet Eddy". Lee quickly held out the talkie to Ed and Double D for them to introduce them selfs.
Hello new friend my name is Ed!
Salutations Clementine. I'm also named Edd but you can just call me Double D.
How old are you? "Eight" And your all alone?
Yes. I don't know where anybody is. How old are you?
I'm uhh... 37
All the Eds replied with 12 which caused Lee to quickly look at Ed with genuine surprise. Ed just waved at him with a goofy smile.
"Where are you're parents?" Lee asked these simply to make conversation to show her he's a good guy since he was well aware of what happened to them. He had made his way to the kitchen being careful not to slip on the blood again and just looked around.
The Eds however stayed in the living room. Double D poked Eddy and showed him the stairs. Eddy was not impressed. "Ok there stairs nothing special sockhead."
No Eddy with the help of Ed we have manage to unblock the route to the upstairs floor so maybe we can find some supplies to help us it should be very beneficial for us. So shall we head up. But before Double D could take a step they heard screaming from the kitchen.
The Eds runned to the kitchen. Only to see a female zombie trying to attack Lee. He was holding it back and manage to pushed down to the ground.
"Where was that thing even hiding?! We checked everywhere!" Eddy yelled very confused on how they could mess the zombie in a very small area.
Lee tried to run away only for him to slip on the blood and hit his head on the counter hard and fell to the ground after giving a swift kick into the face of the zombie he backed up. Again.
The zombie was on Lee trying to bite into his neck. Eddy saw the others were to scared to do anything so he said only one thing. "OK you know what. SCREW THIS!" Eddy charged the zombie and then kicked it off Lee. Like he was a professional soccer player scoring the winning goal.
Unfortunately while kicking the zombie got it off Lee. It also made the zombie direct all it's attention to Eddy and a zombie on its feet is lot harder to deal with when your only 5'0 feet.
Eddy backed away from it since he couldn't reach the head to do some real damage. Double D fearing for his friends life he soon noticed a pair of stools near the counter. "Ed! Stools!"
With a serious look Ed grapped one of the stools and swunged it as hard as he could at the zombie's face sending it to the ground. It broke on contact showering the zombie's face with splinters with some getting into the eyes.
The zombie trying to get up again but Clementine had opened the sliding door with a claw hammer simply handing it to Lee "Here!" Lee quickly grapped the hammer placed his knee on the zombies stomach and begain to absolutely bashed it's face in. By the third strike the zombie had stoped moving but Lee gave it on good finally bash. It drove the hammer into its skull making sure it was finally dead.
"What the heck happened Lee? We where just in the living room." Eddy asked confused.
I don't know I was talking to Clementine and then all of a sudden this zombie popped up.
"Maybe it spawned in like a video game." Ed said very spookly.
Lee just looked at him with a Really look and then turned to Clementine. "Hi there."
Clementine saw a pool of blood starting making way for her she just backed up. "Did you kill it?"
I think something else did. Before me I think.
I heard her screamed two nights ago. Maybe the one of the monsters got her.
After hearing that everyone had a look of surprise because this meant this little girl had been by herself for two days and who knows maybe even more.
"Yeah thats what probably killed her." Eddy said nonchalantly. Double D gave Eddy a glare.
Eddy! Thats just rude Don't listine to him Clementine.
Lee kneeled down to talk to Clementine. "You've been all by yourself through this?"
Yeah I want my parents to come home now.
Everyone just looked at her with a look of saddnes because the voice mail made it pretty obvious that they didn't make it.
Eddy rubbed the back of his head. Double D was looking at the ground. Ed just stood there. None of them knew what to say to a kid who just lost her parents. Lee just said what he thought was most... Well acceptable in this situation.
I think that might be a little while, you know?
"Oh." Was all Clementine could say having no idea the fate of her parents.
Look, I don't know what happened. But I'll look after you until then.
"What about them?" Clementine looking at the Eds.
"It's ok Clementine we'll help in anyway we can right Ed, Eddy." Double D said handing out his hand to shake her which she accepted.
"Don't worry little one. Knight Ed shall protect you from the zombies evil clutchs and save the beef jerky." Clementine looked at Ed with a weird look but had a happy smile.
Eddy was indifferent to these situation but he was not going to just suggest leaving a child here. "Yeah sure we can take care of you I guess." Clementine was unsure about Eddy but he didn't seem like a bad guy so she choose to trust him for now.
Clementine looked back at Lee. "What should we do now?"
We should look for help before it gets dark.
Yeah, it's not safe at night.
"Um Exuse me." Everyone looked at Double D. "Before we leave I must point out the fact me and Ed manage to unblock the upstairs so we might find supplies to help us."
Lee thought about it for a second and another jolt of pain flared up in his leg anything to help him would be great but climping stairs is not happing.
Well getting suplies for my leg would be good, but I can't go up there with you three and who knows whats up there.
Oh don't worry about us we should be ok even if we do come across another monster we can handle ourselfs.
Yeah but before we go up we should get a weapon. Maybe we can find somethings like that in the kitchen. Come on Lumpy lets find something to bash in zombie heads.
You got Eddy. Come on Double D let's equip our selfs with the best weaponry to vanquish the evil zombies.
"Ok Ed." The Eds started looking for weapons or something that could be used as a weapon. After 5 minutes of searching the Eds have found their weapons.
Ed had a toaster which he could grap by the plug and swing it around like a flail or just hold by the metal part and bash in heads. Double D had a frying pan a simple object that has been actual tested as a very good weapon. Who would of guessed. Eddy had a kitchen knife another tool used for years as something to cook or kill. Anyway this will do for now.
Lee while staying downstairs he kept close the hammer he used just in case a zombie manage to make it's way in he took a seat on the only stool left. The pleasure of getting off his leg was amazing. Clementine got a chair near the table and just sat down next to him.
With their weapons in hand the Eds begain to ascend the stairs not noticing some blood on the hand rail.
The hallway was dark very dark due to the fact their was no windows letting in natural light.
It's so dark I can't see my toes Eddy.
Yeah well you sure can still smell them Ed.
Well we should try to find the light switch thankfully the house still has power so that should help our predicament.
Double D began feeling around the walls for a light switch and soon he found one however the second the hallways was light upped Double D wished he haven't fliped it. What they saw was a giant blood splatter on the wall and floor and what appears to be some bits of flesh on the floor. The most disturping thing was a severed arm.
"Oh dear. We need to be very quiet to to draw attention to ourselvs gentelment we have no idea whats in here." Ed and Eddy nodded in agrement.
Taking a look around the floor it was pretty average to there left they saw a double door room with two doors on the wall to the right by themselves. On the right was on door was a door with another one on its left side. Right infront of them was a single door.
Since it was closest and not wanting to go towards the way with the guts and blood everywhere. They checked the door infront of them and after opening the door and raising there weapons they found... The laundry room.
"Well that was anticlimactic. Nothing in here but some cleaning supplies." Eddy said annoyed. While they lowerd their weapons.
Yes quite and nothing in here we can use let's check on the right side gents.
When they got to the doors they decide to open both and see what happens Ed took the one all the waydown the hallway, while Eddy took the one on the left. Both were opened and thankfully no zombies. Eddy found a small bathroom while Ed found what appeared to be Clementine's room. Because it looked alot like Sarah's room. It was a it walls where orange, a dresser filled with cloths, a toybox, closet, and queen sized bed filled with stuffed animals.
Double D was happy to find a bathroom since they are the most used room for medical supplies since you always know where your bathroom is. Hey found a mirror cabinet which was a stroke of luck. Unfortunally he didn't find what he was looking for no iodine. He manage to find some gauze but it was dirty as hell it would just make infection spread faster.
Ed enter Clementine's room in hopes of finding something although just looking around just showed there wasn't anything worth taking. Ed was about to leave but he found something that brought nothing but joy. Ed noticed a brown chicken plushie looking around to see if anyone was watching Ed took the plush and put it into his coat. He left with a bright smile.
With only one option left they made their way towards the blood splat. It was disgusting and they noticed a foul smelling odar the closer they got to it. They noticed bloody handprints whatever that was to get up or to sit down the couldn't know the large intestines on the floor was a clear indication of what happened.
"Oh my word the stench!" Double D yelled lifting his shirt above his nose. Eddy was gagging from the smell. Even Ed was bothered by it... I mean not as much but if its enough for Ed to react to it you know it smells bad.
"Come one guys the sooner we look into the other rooms the sooner were away from the smell." Eddy said who stepped around the blood and guts the others followed suit.
The first door they checked was just a closet just some towels and pillows. The second however was a larger bathroom then the last one.
Oh this is good maybe we can find some iodine. Ed come and help me please.
You got it Double D!
While Ed and Double D searched the bathroom for supplies Eddy decided to check the last room. He grapped both door handles and swinged them opened revealing Clementine's parents room it was bigger then Clementine's. It had a king's size bed, sliding door closet, a dresser with a mirror and there own t.v infront of the bed, with white walls and carpet.
Eddy begain to look around with his knife drawn just in case trying to find something. He was just trying to past the time. "Man Clementine's parents have a sweet digs. Not as good as mine though." Eddy began to look around the room for the best place to start looking he decided on the closet.
Eddy began walking towards it very calm because they haven't encountered zombies. Eddy grapped the door handle but he thought he heard heavy breathing he looked around but found nothing. "Must be imagining things." He then opened the closet only to backup in fear.
Out came a looter zombie it was wearing stuff someone would want to hide there identity also a backpack. The good thing about this jumpscare zombie is that it was wearing a mask around its mouth preventing it from biting Eddy.
Eddy backed up until he hit the dresser he coudn't stab the zombie in the head because of his height. So he started taking out drawers from the dresser and throwed them at the zombie in hopes of bringing it down to the ground. He however run out of drawers before that happened.
Shit! Ok think Eddy think. Look for anything that could help you kill this thing.
While Eddy looked around he realise the bed. If he can get on to it and jump off he can bring down his knife like divine thunder. "OK Eddy all you got to do is get onto the bed jumped towards it's head and use your knife like a giant nail to it's empty skull. You got this."
Eddy rushed towards the bed and climbed onto it as fast as he could the zombie was shambling it's way towards the bed Eddy then jumped with the grace of a kangaroo doing a summersault. Knife out and ready to impale the head... He absolutely missed it and he ate shit onto the floor. It was both epic and stupid at the same time.
Eddy quickly realising the situation he rolls under the bed to get away from the zombies "OK Eddy all you have to do is wait for it to get down towards your level and then stab it's stuped face... Wheres my knife?" Eddy then saw his knife behind the zombie. "...Shit."
The zombie then bend down to the floor but before it could crawl after Eddy a toaster came slaming down onto its head. Ed had come into the room he grapped his toaster raising it above his head and began smashing it into the zombies skull.
Back foul creature from whence you came! You shall not hurt my friend!
Ed had turned the zombies skull into paste which is some awesome overkill but he pretty much destroyed the toaster as well. He then took the backpack off the zombie and raised above his head. Like a trophy.
I'm am Ed! Destroyer of zombies and this is my trophy!
Double D quickly made his way towards the bed quickly glancing at Ed and the flatten zombie skull. He then crouched down and checked on Eddy. "You ok Eddy?" He asked with concern.
"Yeah Yeah... I'm ok." Eddy said calming down. "Just give me a minute." He then just layed down on the floor for a quick minute. While he moved to get out he noticed something in the dark. After grapping it he noticed it was a small black box. Hidden in the darkness of the bed.
After getting out from the under the bed he stood up and with the box in hand. It was just a plain black box nothing to show what could be inside.
"Hey check this out." Eddy said holding up the box for the others to see.
"Cool a box." Ed said grapping the box to get a closer look at it.
"Hey give that back!" Eddy said trying to take it back but Ed just held it over his head.
Double D grapped the box and began examining it to see what could be inside. "My my I wonder what could be inside this little rectangle of mystery?" Eddy then grapped the box.
"Well only one way to find out." Eddy said with excitement. He then flipped open the box and what inside surprised them.
Inside the box was a gun a snub nosed .44 revolver to be exact. It had black plastic grip and a silver barrel. Also inside was a box of .44 ammo which after opening that box it was full. There was also something which looked to be gun cleaner.
"Whoa jackpot! Clementine's parents were packing some heat." Eddy said after picking up the gun and aiming it at a pillow. This however worried Double D.
Eddy you shouldn't wave that thing around it's not a toy. Now put it down before you shoot us. Besides you don't even know how to use that.
"Oh come on sockhead relax besides it's not even loaded." Eddy then popped out the cylinder and showed that there was indeed no bullets. "And for your imformation I do know how to use it."
Whoa Eddy your like Billy the Squid. The squid who used six's Six shooters.
Wait... Since when did you know how to use a gun?! And howcome you never told us.
My dad had the same kind of gun back at our house he taught me how to use it in case I ever need to defend my self. As for why I never told you I never had my a gun of my own to show you guys.
Well with that intresting and quite surprising fact about you Eddy out of the way. We should head back down stairs me and Ed manage to find the right stuff to help 's leg and we should give the firearm to the adult.
Double D went to reach for the gun but Eddy pulled it away from keeping it close to him. "Are you nuts! We can't give this gun to him have you forgotten how we met him. He was in handcuffs and on his way to jail. What if we give this to him and he turns it on us?"
Oh come on Eddy while it is true we meet in handcuffs so far he has been a good man. So why would he try to hurt us?
You remeber when we first met the Kankers? They were really nice and all. But after a while they were actually psychopaths after they thought they caught us. Who's to say that Lee won't be the same huh?
"Well you do have a point there but should we really be handling a gun it could be very dangerous." Double D said with concern.
There are zombies just like in Eds comic books so having a gun is going to save our butts. Eddy noticed that Double D still had an unsure look on his face.
"Look you see this part." Eddy pointed at the hammer of the gun. "As long as this part isn't pulled back it can't be fired." "And for now I'll keep it in the box but we keep it to ourselfs." "But I'm keeping it loaded until we really need it." Eddy the started loading the gun and put back into the box. "Hey Ed hand me that backpack." Ed then tossed the pack to Eddy who noticed it was quite light... too light.
Eddy unzipped the pack and saw that it was empty. "Uh guy must of bite it before he could grap anything. Oh well a free empty pack for me." Eddy then put the gun box into the pack and slunged it over his shoulder. "Ok let's head back down and remeber. We don't metion the gun." The two nodded in agreement. They then headed downstairs.
After making it back down the stairs they saw Lee and Clementine still waiting for them. "Uh and here I thought you abandon us." Eddy said sarcastically. Lee looked at them with a worried look on his face.
You three ok? We heard some banging and yelling up there.
"Yes we're ok. We did encounter a monster but Ed here took care of it. Right Ed?" Double D placed a hand on Ed's shoulder for a job well done.
"I'm am Ed! Destroyer of Zombies and eater of gravey." Ed said triumphantly but then looked in sad. "But we lost our brave little toaster." Ed said with tears in his eyes as he hold up his smashed toaster. "Such a brave soldier you will be missed." Putting down on the ground.
Double D patted his back comforting him. "We did manage to find something for your leg ." He then took out his supplies which was some gauze,iodine, and a rag to clean up the wound. "Just stay there I'll take care of it."
Double D began the process of cleaning and dressing the wound. "You know your stuff Double D." Lee asked surprised on how much Double D knew.
Oh yes I'm quite knowledgeable. I read all kinds of books about medical problems... Also I have a lot of exprience cleaning up wounds with my friends and I.
"Oh, why is that?" Lee asked really curious about what would cause them to be injured regularly. "Well you see me and my friends often do stuff around the cul-de-sac for money. We have done alot of stuff like a lemonade stand;paper route and a lawnmower service. However some of these ideas have been not really honest work.
"We have done scams for the other kids in the cul-de-sac for money so we can buy the best candy in the world... Jawbreakers only 25 cents. Unfortunately our scams pretty much always end in failure and the other kids usually beat us up for they money back. But we keep doing it because jawbreakers are too good to resist.
It's always been us three. Eddy is the idea's guys and the one to beckon the kids to are scams. I'm the brains often coming up with the blueprints of the gadgets we use for our scams. And Ed... Well Ed's the brawns of our little trio.
Double D had just finished cleaning and dressing Lee's wound. "Thats how I have exprience with cleaning wounds and little look into our lives." Lee didn't know what to think. The Eds were clearly good kids but the scams were a bit of a throw off.
"They sound like jerks." Clementine knew what she wanted to say however. "Why would they beat you up instead of just taking back their change. Also isn't beating someone up for only a quarter kinda of stupid."
Lee had to agreed while yes scaming someone isn't good beating someone up for only 25 cents is taking it way to far. "Yeah from the way you describe them they don't sound like nice kids." Double D just looked at them with a look of its ok.
Oh its ok no reason to feel bad. Well your leg looks good to go how does it feel?
Lee got up onto his leg and it felt good as new and it looked ok. "Wow you did a good job Double D." A very impressed Lee said.
Oh thank you it was nothing. Well we should start to leave in order to find some help.
"Yeah we should get out of here. Is everyone ready to go." Lee asked and looked at Eddy and Ed who gave him a thumbs up and Clementine who just gave him a nod. Everyone gather by the sliding door ready to leave but before they could Clementine hold Lee's hand he just let it happened. He quickly looked backed to the Eds and headed outside. Let's go.
After exiting the house but not before Clementine shut the door. They made there way towards the back of the house where there was a metal gate. They saw two men trying to push a broken down car out of the way of a truck. They stopped to take a short rest. "Oh Maaan." "I ain't never getting home to mama at this rate." They began pushing again.
"This sucks." Said the blacked haired man. "It's hot dish night." Said the brown haired man.
They were about to open the gate but Clementine stopped them. Lee kneeled down. "Whats the matter?"
"Should I stay?" Clementine asked unsure.
"What?" Was all they could say.
I don't want to sleep in the treehouse tonight, but I don't know if I should leave. What if my parents come home?
We won't leave you alone Clementine.
Clementine looked at them with a smile. "Let's go somewhere safe that's close, ok?"
That's a good idea.
They opened the gate and Ed immediatlely rushed out to greet the two men because for Ed strangers are just friends he hasn't meet yet.
"Hello new friends. My name is Ed." Ed said very loadly causing both men to jump in fear.
"HOLY SHIT!" The blacked hair man screamed jumping onto the hood of the car. "DON'T EAT US!" The browned hair man screamed putting his arms in front of himself.
Lee walked passed Ed difussing the situation. "We're not going to hurt you." The two men then calmed down. "Phew, thought for a second you and your kids were going to give us the CHOMP." Black haired man responded.
"So what exactly are you two trying to do." Eddy asked. "Trying to get home, this neighborhood is a disaster." The black haired man responded as if it was obvious.
Are you trying to get out of here? Because you should be. Those things are all over the damn place. I havn't seen anything as gnarly as this neighborhood since downtown Atlanta, fifteen miles back. I'm Shawn, Shawn Green.
Lee, this is Clementine and thats Ed, Double D and Eddy.
Hello there, I'm Chet the browned hair man introduce himself.
"We shouldn't be out in the open like this." Shawn said with urgents. "How about you help us clear the way and we'll take you and your kids out of here, and down to my family's farm. It should be safer there.
I'm not there dad. I'm... Just some guy.
"Yeah he's not our father me and my friends came from peach creek we were on a field trip and found ourselfs in this mess." Double D said the clear up some confusion
"Just some guy?" Shawn said and all Lee could respond with was. "Yeah."
So she's all alone? "Chet asked concernd "Let's get going staying put for too long is a mistake."
Lee nodded and turned to Clementine. "What do you wanna do?" But before Clementine could respond Eddy noticed that a group of zombies were heading there way.
"Crap! Zombies tweleve aclock." Eddy quickly rushed to the car blocking the way. "Are you just gonna stand there or help me push this thing?" Eddy asked everyone he was soon joined by Ed; Shawn; Lee and lastly Clementine while Chet and Double D hide infront of the truck.
After finally pushing the busted car out of the way they rushed to the truck with Lee, Clementine and Shawn getting in the front seats. While Chet and the Eds got in the bed of the truck. Shawn quickly put the car in drive and got the hell out of there. Shawned told Lee.
For just "some guy", it seems like you've saved a bunch of lives today.
Finally getting the hell out of that neighborhood seeing Clementine's house getting further away as the group got closer to safty. That was one hell of a open house.
