-Review response-

Guest: Here you go.

thedarkpokemaster: No need to apologize for being away but its glad to have you back. Thanks for the compliment.

CRed1988: Indeed.

Worker72: Yup we'll see how Clementine will deal with this situation. And don't worry this story will start to differ greatly from canon. I have a lot of ideas and there kind of uh..."ambitious".

-Line break-

"Open the door slowly, his body is against it so you need to be careful." Clementine told Sandra warily.

"Okay, I got it." Sandra replied to the girl whilst inserting the key into the car door. With the door unlocked she pulled on the handle slowly so the man wouldn't come tumbling out. Once the door opened she had to push against it somewhat to support the man's weight. Once it was opened far enough she put her leg against the door to support it and looked into saw this Lee.

The guy had blood running the side of head and by the look of it bled quite a bit because there was a sizable amount that was on his own shirt.

"Ah, Clementine! Can you lend me a hand." Sandra said looking back towards her.

"Yeah, want do you need?" She had her hands twitching nervously.

"Hold this for me. Don't worry it isn't loaded so it won't fire." She said holding out the unloaded waepon with her left hand.

Clementine nodded before grabbing it with her small hands. She frowned upon this when she noticed the size if the gun in comparison to her body. 'Looks like I won't be able to shoot anything like this for a couple of years...'

Sandra turned her attention back to the guy in the car and locked arms underneath his before pulling him out of the vehicle. Lee was quite a big guy Sandra noted. Definitely over 6 foot. Sandra groaned at how difficult it was going to be a dragging this man back to the house.

"Okay I got him. Let's get going." Sandra with her voice strained a bit.

"Euuh..."

Just before she was ready to pull him he let out a low groan that startled her.

Lee's eyes opened in an almost a half asleep, hazed state. His eyes slowly dirfted to the small girl who was staring at him with a worried look on her face.

"Clemen...tine?" He struggled to say her name. His right hand lifted as if he tried to reach out to her.

Clementine eyes wided and she froze on the spot.

He was trying to fight off the fatigue but it wasn't enough because his eyes lost clarity and he blacked out.

"That can't be good...we need to get back to the house." Clementine said recovering from her initial shock.

"Yeah, lets get moving Clem." Sandra agreed while pull Lee's unconscious form with some difficulty. After adjusting to his weight Sandra found it slightly easier to move him.

The hair on her neck was still standing on end after that in encounter with the dead(?) cop minutes ago. Her legs were still slightly twitching because of the terror and adrenaline that was pumping through her through her veins. Thinking back at the situation made her shutter involuntarily. Now that she was thinking about it clearly, lots of questions were floating around in her head.

What exactly happened back there?

How did Clementine know what to do?

Was that guy really dead?

And other similar questions.

She was quite certain that the cop was dead because of the all blood that was around him, the fact that we wasn't breathing, and the smell of his body decaying. With all of these things put together she knew, he had to be dead. Does that mean that this disease can bring back the dead? Thinking about it like the events that happened yesterday made sense. That driver from yesterday, those guys said he wasn't even breathing when they tried pull him out of vehicle. And the guy who had his throat ripped out, he bled out in moments but he came back as one of those monsters.

How did Clementine know how to dispatch it so easy? You can't really kill something that's already dead but Clementine did just that some how. She didn't see exactly the manner of attack Clementine used but knew where that bloody screw driver ended up.The attack had come swiftly and accurately. She would have questioned where and when Clementine got that screw driver but she knew the kind of forethought the girl had. The girl seemed to be some sort of prodigy in her own regard and Sandra knew it was quite likely that the girl's intelligence dwarfed her own. She also noted that Clementine didn't have much of a reaction after killing the monster. Sure she was concerned about her safety but she didn't react to the fact that she just killed something. Perhaps the girl already real determined that these things aren't really people anymore.

Speaking of Clementine she had her own questions. How did Lee know who she was? The first time they meet is back at her house. Did Lee keep his memories? If that was true then they together could prevent a lot of the terrible thing from happened to the group from accuring. The downside of this is that she wouldn't have as much behind the scene control of the group as she would like. While Lee would most definitely take up the leadership role right st the beginning and listen to her on some things, there would be many things that they wouldn't agree because of how she was now. Even though she didn't like thinking about it this, she essentially desired to control the group through Lee. If it was anyone else she wouldn't have given it a second thought about using them. She for the most part stopped seeing people for who they were and instead saw them for there resources. That was the reason she was able to take care of herself and AJ for so long. It wasn't personal, it was necessary for them to survive.

Before she could think anymore about the matter, the were already at the backward gate. After making back inside Clementine fixated her mind on a more urgent which was Lee's condition.

"Lay him on the couch, I'll be right back."

"Wait, what are you doing?" Sandra asked confused.

"Getting something to treat those wounds." Clementine said after placing the unloaded shotgun down. She opened the sliding and went outside to her tree house to retrieve the first aid. After about two minutes Clementine returned to the living room with the supplies in hand.

"Where'd you get that?"

"Tree house." Clementine replied dryly.

She crouched down and opened the first aid and looked at Lee's resting and inspected his injuries.

"Are you sure you can do this?"

"Yup, my mom was a doctor." Clementine said as if that answered the question.

"What's that supposed to-"

"Just let me focus." Clementine snapped.

She leaned in and looked at his head injury. Clementine noted that there was swelling present in the area and the wound that all the blood came from. It already stopped bleeding but the blood was matted to the area around it.

"Sandra, could you get me my water bottle and a small hand cloth, if you can find one." Clementine asked Sandra.

"Sure, I'll be back in a sec."

As Sandra walked off Clementine decided to go and check for something. She her hands on both sides of Lee's face and used her thumbs to pry open his eye lids.

"...shit." Clementine muttered undrr her breath. She really didn't like what she was seeing. One of Lee's pupils were dilated far more than the other.

'That's definitely a concussion...'

She let go of his face and waited for Sandra to return with what she asked for. After about a minute Sandra came back with both of the things she needed.

"Here you go Clem." she said handing the materials to her.

"Thanks."

"So how is he?" Sandra asked kneeling next to her.

" Not very good. I haven't checked everything yet but so far it looks like he has a concussion and his leg is pretty messed up." Clementine explained.

Sandra frowned.

"That's terrible."

Clementine opened the water bottle and poured some of water on to the cloth. Once she got enough on it she brought it up to the wound and started to wipe off the blood that was matted on and around it. After she finished she opened and used some alcohol swabs from the first aid to make sure it wouldn't get infected. Once she finished with she used a gauze roll to bandage his head.

She moved on to his leg wound and repeated this process which only took a few minutes.

Clementine then started unbuttoning his dress shirt.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm checking for any other injuries. While his visible wounds are superficial there could be something much worst that I've yet to find." Clementine said slightly annoyed although she didn't show it.

Once she unbuttoned it a little over half way she ask Sandra for some help.

"Could you lift his T-shirt up a bit for me? That would be a great help."

"Alright."

Sandra pulled it up revealing some nasty bruises.

Clementine put her hand on it and pushed down a bit on and felt the tenderness of the effected area.

"I don't think his ribs are broken so that's good." Clementine said retracting her hand.

"Do you have any pain meditation Sandra?" She said turning to face her.

Sandra shook her head.

Clementine sighed.

"What's wrong?" Sandra asked with a concerned look on her face.

"He's going to be in a lot of pain when he wakes up."
