Chapter 16

It's been three mouths ago after the outbreak started. Lee was in the forest, sneaking up to a walker who eating something used to be alive. Lee was so quietly so the walker get no attention by him. He rose to his feet and swings his fireaxe directly on to the walker's head and kicks it off. He looked to see what it was eating as Axel appear up from behind him with a crossbow which own to his father, Daryl Dixon.

Lee: "Oh shit, What've they got this time?"

Axel: "It must be a rabbit, probably the same one I was trying to hunt down this rascal for three days ago."

Lee: "Well, that's another meal lost."

Axel: "We already have lost so many meals, more than you can imagine."

The two of them began strolling through the woods

Lee: "I know and even commissary food Mark brought in for three months, huh?"

Axel: "I'd say that supposed to not just him who brought the food except my dad too."

Lee look down with a sympathy look.

Lee: "I'm sorry what happened with your dad, but you must get over it. He could be still alive out there."

Axel: "If he still alive, he would probably sneak in the motel and wait to get chance to kill Larry sooner or later."

Lee start to remember back for three months ago in the Robins Air Force Base.

Flashback in RAFB for three mouths ago, a week ago after Axel arrived back to the motel from Atlanta.

Lee, Doug, Lilly and Larry arrived at the Air Force Base, there were so many walkers in the park, the center of the area. They sneaked into the Hangar One.

Lilly: "Shit, never expected that was so many of them in this place."

Lee: "Are we gonna still try to get supplies from here?"

Larry: "Well, why won't you just shut up and stop pissing around by fear of them."

Doug: "Come on Larry, he just said that we have no idea what's inside the hangar. We could probably get swarm of them and then we're done."

Larry frowned right to Doug and shook his head, he turned around and keep walking to follow his daughter's lead.

Lilly: "Wait, stop. Did you guys hear that?"

The group stop and listen a noise, it sounds like someone banging on something. The group walk and the noise came from a door which lead to office.

Lilly: "Everyone, be careful."

Lilly and Lee get closer slowly to the door. Lilly grab the handle of the door and Lee holding his axe to get prepare for anything. Lilly opened the door and then it was a man who wear glasses named Mark. He was panicked that he thought Lee and his group was the walkers, but he see it was false alarm and take a breath.

Mark: "Oh thank good. First I thought that you were one of those things outside, Lilly."

Lilly: "Oh good, Mark. Are you okay?"

Mark: "I'm alright. But our friends in here... they didn't..."

Lilly: "Shit... You're own?"

Mark: "Not really, I'm "stuck" with one of us and he-"

Mark was interrupted by a gunshot coming from the roof.

Lilly: "What the hell was that?"

Mark: "It was Dixon. He trying to distract walkers with a noise so he can find an opening."

Mark turned around and runs to the upstairs behind on the next door while Lee and the others was shocked to hear that name Dixon. They follow after Mark.

On the roof of the hangar

There was a man named Daryl Dixon who wear a rifle and crossbow. He fired the rifle to shot one of the walkers on the ground while to distract them with the noise of the gunshot.

Daryl: "Come on, all of your fucking virus carriers. Why can''t you just-"

Daryl was interrupted by Mark who appear with Lee and his group.

Mark: "Hey, I already told you. Stop firing the gun."

Larry: "You fucker! You're getting all us killed!"

Daryl stop firing his rifle and turned around to the other.

Daryl: "Well, who the hell are these two people instead Lilly and her crybaby dad, Mark?"

Lilly: "That's not concern now. You're getting the walkers in this hangar, you idiot."

Daryl: "Tch! You guys need should be little polite and be smart. I'm not going just sitting around here while my family is out there with those "walkers" or whatever they are."

Lee: "Everybody, chill out. If we keep going like this, the walkers will get us soon enough."

Daryl: "They will not get inside as long you have closed the door after, huh?"

Mark: "You guys did it?"

Doug: "I did."

Daryl: "Good, now let's get back what I started."

Lilly: "Can it, asshole."

Daryl: "Who said you are making decision?"

Larry getting closer to Daryl and look at him with threat glare.

Larry: "My girl have more balls than anyone here, including yours."

Daryl: "She is in the charge?"

Larry: "Damn right."

Lee: "We don't want have any trouble in this place with full of the walkers."

Daryl: "You got a point there and what have you expecting me to do?"

Lee: "Listen, do you have a son by named Axel?"

Daryl look surprised and chocked to hear that name.

Daryl: "That's my boy, I'm fucking knew it that he will never die so easily by those abominations down there. Where is he? Is he alright?"

Lee: "He is on our place and he is okay. We will take yo-"

But Lee was interrupted by Larry.

Larry: "Whoa, slow down there cowboy! He's not coming with us. He might be dangerous as yourself."

Doug: "Come on Larry. This is Axel's father."

Larry: "Who the hell cares!"

Daryl: "Hey, it's will be bad enough for this rotten organ donor who trying to forbid me to go to your camp, to my own son. I don't think so that'll be the day."

Larry: "That'll be the day? You got something you wanna tell us?"

Lilly: "Dad, stop."

Larry: "No, I want to know".

Daryl: "You wanna know the day?"

Larry: "Fuck yeah, hood?!"

Daryl: ""Well, I'll tell you the day Mr Asshole. If you think I'm dangerous, so listen this: The day will be screwed up when a dangerous person will take orders from a fucking walking pildriver from a nurse home."

Larry: "YOU MOTHERFUCKER!"

Larry throws a punch but Daryl dodged and pick up his knife from his pocket. He slash fast right at Larry's left leg which he screamed pain and leaned back until he fell down. Daryl put his knife back in his pocket and jump on Larry. He hitting on Larry's face four times and Lilly start get to help her dad, but Daryl pick up his gun and aim at the woman to signal to don't get any close himself or the old man. Lilly stands and everybody look little nervous about what will happening next. Daryl aim on Larry who got some bruises on his face. Daryl spit on him and stand up, he walk away while Lilly came to check her her old man who was beating up by another's old man.

Daryl: "So, who wanna still get out from this place, right now?"

Doug: "We will, but we came here to get some supplies."

Mark: "We have plenty rations in the cellar of this hangar. If you get them, will you let me and Daryl go with you to your place, right Daryl?"

Daryl: "Fine, just give them whatever they want. Just hurry up then, those things will get in here sooner and that's our opening."

Lee: "Deal, as long you don't fight with anybody of us."

Larry give a glare towards Lee about the deal with Daryl.

End of Flashback

Back to the present

Lee following with Axel who trying to find some animal tracks.

Axel: "Hey, I saw Mark accidentally grabbed for Carley's nations the other night, I thought she was gonna take of his hand. And I saw she tried to give a energy bar to you as she was nice to you than to Mark."

Lee blushed little and smile.

Lee: "She just... try be little nice, maybe because I saved her back in the drugstore. She and Clementine looks fine together with Cath. By the way, tell Mark that we're all on the edge, I already told that she don't own me anything."

Axel: "If you say so. Speaking about the food, Cath was so stubborn that she want to wear a gun when you guys learned to use them and wanna try to hunt her own. But I refused."

Lee: "I guess that makes her unhappy over your answer."

Axel: "Tell me about it. But she will get over it."

Lee: "I don't think either same to Clementine to wear a gun too."

Axel: "Age doesn't matter anymore, Lee. It's about when they're able to wear a gun. By the way, I wonder how much food we have."

Lee: "You'll have to ask Lilly. She's the one handling the rations."

Axel: "Or mishandling it, if you ask Kenny."

Lee: "He just worried about his kid getting enough. Just like Me to Clementine and You to Cath, aren't you?"

Axel: "I am, I just saying that I refused to share any my animals to that fucking asshole Larry after what he did to my old man and Lilly just do nothing about it except barking at me. You think Kenny and Mark are having better luck out here than we are?"

Lee: "I sure hope so."

Axel: "You know, between the lack of food and Kenny and Lilly fighting all the time that never will end, things are getting pretty tense back at the Motor Inn. Kenny has been talking about taking off if he can get that RV running. God, I can't even count how many times have he asked me for a help to get that junk to running."

Lee: "Kenny won't abandon us. He's a good man."

Axel: "I know you're right, but his mind is already made up, but other side that one day if the Motor Inn is a unsafe place... well... we can go find another safe place where there is more animals to hunt. Can't say that I blame him. Larry's been giving him hell last night, Cath had pick a fight with him and she will be in trouble after what that old man tried to kill you, Duck and my... It seems like he have more dealing something on you than his racist business."

Lee look down and start to remember Larry know about his past.

Lee: "I think he believe I'm dangerous."

Axel: "Tch... he even trying to judge to anyone instead himself. He need to get over it and start to pull his weight. He has might have a heart problems, he should help us to find some food. The only reason why he don't, is Lilly who look after him because his health, in the another word like a baby but that guy's all muscle and can take care himself. And he punch you in the face, right?"

Lee: "Knocked me and feel like I being be flat."

Lee mumbled by anger over that day what Larry tried to kill him; To knock and left him behind for the walkers.

When they walking through the woods, Axel saw a rabbit who appeared from nowhere and standing there. The rabbit is almost more than ten meters away from Axel as he bend down and pointing with his crossbow. The rabbit didn't noticed anything from Axel or Lee who bend down next to the teenager hunter.

Lee: "I know already told you, rabbit is a hard meal, but we need more food for now."

Axel moved his eye to look at Lee and give him warning signal to do not disturb the shot. When he pull on the trigger to shot, then they both suddenly hear somebody screaming out of forest which it made the rabbit leaped off.

Axel: "What the fuck?! Who the hell is screaming?"

Lee: "I don't know? Come on."

They bent up on their legs and start run to the right through some bushes and try to find whoever it was that was screaming.

Axel: "I don't think that screaming was Kenny. I don't know how Mark sounds when he yelling his mouth out. If it was him who have no reason to scream right in the forest to scare the animals away and attracted the walkers to us, He'll regret this when he see me."

They eventually stop somewhere in the woods and look everywhere where the voice came from until they hear somebody screaming again.

Axel: "This way!"

They run to the left, passed a few more trees and find three teenagers, two boys and one girl standing over a man with his leg is clamped by a bear trap, which was the one who had been screaming in pain. The black-haired boy and the black-haired girl who tying with boy's belt on the man's leg while the other boy who have brown-haired and little longer than the other boy just standing there and watching with a horrified look.

Teenager Girl: "Hang on Mr Parker, we will get you out from that thing."

Lee and Axel getting closer to them and saw with a chock on their face at the poor man's leg was trap by a bear trap. Axel thinking about that bear trap.

Axel: "Where the hell come bear trap from? I've been here few times before and there was no any goddamn trap here."

The three teens noticed them and raised their hands in surrender.

Teenager Black-Haired: "Oh Shit! No, no, please don't kill us!"

Teenager Girl: "We just want to help our teacher! Please help us, we'll leave you behind and don't bother you."

Axel: "Be quiet, all of you three. Just tell me what's going on, alright."

Axel starting to look at the teenager girl and then he wide his eyes on her.

Axel: "Do I know you, miss?"

Before the girl could answer, Kenny and Mark arrive to the scene with their rifles.

Kenny: "Lee! Axel! You two okay?"

Axel: "I wouldn't ask the same to them."

Mark: "Jesus Christ."

Mr Parker: "Get it off! Get it off, Goddammit! Get it off me!"

Teenager brown-haired: "Travis, Emily, maybe they can help!"

Travis: "These might be the same guys that raided our camp, and we barely got away from that!"

Emily: "Ben's right, Travis. Plus those who raid our camp wear the masks to cover they face like a bandit. And non of these guys have no masks, Travis!"

Emily agree with Ben that Lee and his friends could help them which means Travis shake his head.

Travis: "Well not all of those guys aren't wear the masks that we saw back there!"

Emily: "No, but else they wear with sunglasses and cap or hood!"

Mark: "What guys?"

Lee: "Who raid your camp?"

Ben: "I- I don't know! Guys with guns!"

Travis: "Please! We won't bother you, I swear!"

Emily: "TRAVIS! We need their help! There's no doubt on it!

Axel: "Why the fuck is there a bear trap out here? Last time it wasn't any bear trap here when I was out here to hunt."

Ben: "I don't know, man!"

Lee: "What the hell happened?"

Emily: "Mr. Parker said we should stay off the streets. We were trying to be careful, but-"

Mr Parker yells again in pain before Emily could finish explaining.

Axel: "You can say that his luck is out for now."

Mark: "Guys, this is fucked up! We gotta help them!"

Ben: "Please!"

Travis: "Ben, shut up! My dad was Special Forces; I know what I'm doing!"

Emily: "If you know what you doing, you should have talk Mr Parker make sense like do not go in the forest. I already knew it this place isn't safe here!"

Travis and Emily start to look each other with their glare eyes until Ben talk to Lee and the other.

Ben: "Just see if you can get him out! After that, you can leave us or whatever, I don't care! Please!"

Lee: "We gotta get him outta there!"

Mr Parker: "Oh, God, thank you!"

Kenny: "Fine, but you gotta hurry."

Axel bends down to look at the trap and starts fiddling with it to find the release latch on it.

Mark: "You and your family are hunters, so you know what you doing with that, Axel?"

Axel: "Sorry, it's not kind like that stuff we used to hunt than ropes. But let me see what I can do."

But then a walker show's up from the left of the woods.

Axel: "Guys, this trap's been altered. There's no release latch. Fuck, who the hell putting a bear trap when the walkers moving around?"

Travis and Emily notices more of the walkers from a distance. He looked very worried when they were walking towards them.

Travis: "...Oh, no."

Emily: "Oh, god."

All the other survivors saw the walkers coming and they all knew that they didn't have much time before even more of them show up.

Axel: "Oh, shit."
