Chapter 21

Axel's POV

I could stop looking at that symbol and getting bad feelings about this and the St Jones too.

"Hey, um... don't mess with that, okay? The things are little tricky and I don't wanna spend half a day trying to fix it again." Andy said carefully and tried to pay me attention which I stand up and frowned at Andy in a second.

"Anyway, I'm glad you guys decided to help us out. I noticed back at the motel that you folks are pretty well armed. Like you and your crossbow, right?" Andy asked and try change the subject.

Hell yeah!

"Yeah. If anyone tries to fuck with us, they'll regret it!" I said and act little brave. "Well tough kid, protecting your people is important, but in my experience, having that many guns around is when people get dangerous." Andy said with a doubtful look.

I wish I could say same, but guns isn't judging at the people if they're dangerous or friendly. I looking at the generator in a few seconds and then looking at Andy to ask a question.

"An electric fence is enough to keep out walkers?" I asked and sent a doubtful glance towards Andy.

"Walkers? Is that what you call them? That's good." Andy chuckled. "The old one wouldn't have, but Mac - he was our foreman and figured out how to amp it up with the generator. We use to sit out here some nights and watch the sons o' bitches sizzle and pop when they got too close. Closest thing to entertainment these days, I guess."

I frowned over by heard that name, Mac. "What happened to your foreman after he fixes your fence?" I asked.

"He didn't told us where he'll going, but he'd mentioned he and his "smart ass friends" where going to handle their business as what he said. God know what he up to, he was our best foreman, but always lazy when he go along with his friends even during his work." Andy said with his sympathy face.

I growled little over what Andy told me. Mac, Lynch, what are you guys up to? Maybe is not good idea to tell Andy and his family that their "best" foreman is or was a member of a criminal gang. That would make them angry and skeptical on me that how I know about Mac and the V.I.R.U.S.

Maybe I should move on for now.

"Okay, I hope he will be fine. By the way, we can't be the first people you've invited up to the dairy, right?" I asked.

"Well, no. we've made similar deals with other folks. Trading for gas and food, but ultimately they moved on, looking for the people they lost contact with." Andy said.

So it was other people here before us, even they left to find their families and friends so why didn't they have same idea like Mark's to stay here.

"I see. I go to check around." I said as Andy bends down to get back to work with generator. "Okay, well, we've gotta secure the perimeter, so don't take too long." Andy said.

I walk to Mark who standing by the main gate. He noticed that I came closer and stand right next to him.

"So what have yo found out? Is this looking like a good place to stay?" Mark asked lowly so Andy can't hear us.

I getting little nervous about the generator, can't tell Mark that it's from a criminal gang. But it seems there is no sign of crime on St Jones or connection to V.I.R.U.S. except their foreman. By the way, Andy stop me from get into the barn. Maybe they hide something in there.

"I was going to check the barn, but Andy stopped me. It's seems like he doesn't want anyone get in without him." I explained about the barn.

"Probably it just their privacy in there. We can't just sneaking so far." Mark said as I shaking my head.

"Privacy is kind of outdated, Mark. Even if we have to live here, we will find out what they have in the barn sooner or later. And by the way about staying here isn't what we planned back in the motel, Mark. What the hell got in you?" I said little louder, but wasn't too loud for Andy to hear.

"Look, I'm sorry. But look everywhere, Axel. There is no walkers and we don't have to worry about them no more." Mark said and defended.

"Well, the walkers is just a one thing. There is bunch of people in the forest who could be bandits, rapist and probably psychopaths too. The fence might keep out walkers from dairy, but how about the living people?" I said and frowned at the forest as Mark look little nervous and looking at the forest.

"I don't want to know." Mark said lowly.

I scoffed and sighed little. "You should. And even the fence protect this place, so who knows that there's someone is able to jump over the fence."

Then I heard that someone coming behind us, then we turned around and it was Lee.

"Hey, Lee. Did you found something weird?" I asked.

"No, but I have fixed the swing so the kids have fun." Lee said as I smiled.

Good job there, man.

"So what now? Are we going to check on the fence?" Mark asked.

"Let's do it." Lee answered.

"Okay." I agree.

We walk to Andy, while I start to wonder if Carley and the others.

Cath's POV

I kicking the football and pass to Clementine. I didn't so hard so Clem can take the ball.

"Come on, Clem! Take the ball!" Duck yelled at Clem.

She just stand still and was little nervous, but she focus and took the ball.

"Very good! Better than last time." I cheer and Duck applaud.

Then I heard someone yelling at us, it sounds pretty angry and annoying. I guess it was...

"Will you kids shut your mouth?! You could have draw the walkers against us!" I saw it was that idiot Larry.

Hey, he's the one who yelling around here.

"You're the one who yelling loud right now." I said coldly.

He looking at me angry.

"No one have asked you how I handling with my problems, your brat!" Larry shot back.

I can see Clem and Duck starting be afraid of that guy. But I am so frustration at that asshole.

Seriously that guy, he's nobody except a pain. That old man have tried to kill Duck, then Lee and who knows Dix's father is still alive. That guy is so fucking moron.

Then I see Lilly shows up and stand right to her dad to calm him down.

"Hey, kids. What's happening?" I turned around and it was Kenny who look curious. I better not make him angry if I tell him that Larry scared us.

"It's nothing, Kenny. We're cool." I lied and sent glance to Clem and Duck to agree with me and they nods at Kenny.

"Okay then, just tell me if that bastard-" But Kenny was cut off by Emily who shouted to all of us. "They're back!"

Oh thank god that they're alright. We went to the gate and saw Carley, Doug, Ben and Travis. But wait, where is Dix, Lee and Mark?

I see Clementine is disappointing that Lee hasn't return yet.

"You guys alright?" Emily asked and look happy until she saw the rest of them isn't here.

"We're fine, don't worry about the others. Lee, Axel and Mark is still at the dairy." Doug said.

"Don't worry Clem. Lee will be alright." Carley said and make the little girl not worry about Lee.

So the dairy farm is really exist? Great, I can't waiting for the food.

"So, how's this dairy farm looking?" I asked as I am so desperate over the food.

"It's incredible. There's not a single walker to be found there. I am so impressed about their electric fence." Doug said.

"What do have you there?" Lilly asked as she smell something good from the basket which Doug carrying it.

"Look yourself." Doug said happily as they have same reaction just like him and the other had when they saw breads.

"Breads? Oh wow!" Duck yelled happily.

"Damn, I almost forgot that smell after this shit started." Kenny said and look satisfied.

Breads?! No way. I never felt that smell of it for long time.

"Aw man, they all look so fresh." I said and getting so hungry when I see them.

"Well, we eat some on the way. They taste so really good." Travis said which it made Lilly looks annoying and angry.

"Wait, you guys eat some? What the hell are you thinking, guys?!" Lilly snapped at them.

Seriously, will she never stop yelling everyone?

"Hey, take it easy, Lilly. I took more than they did." Doug said and trying to defended himself, Carley and the teenagers.

"Besides, we're all are hungry and we did save the rest for all of you. Now we have something to eat at last, so come and eat." Carley said.

After the rest of us eat, well just one for each everyone. But it taste so good in months.

"I guess this dairy farm wasn't bad idea at all." Larry said with a proud look as Lilly sent a questionable glance towards him and his opinion about the dairy.

"We'll see." Lilly sucked.

"So, they planning on giving us any more of these?" Kenny asked as Doug and Carley nods. "Yeah and they offering us to stay with them through invite us to dinner if Katjaa is willing to helping them out by nursing their sick cow." Doug told about the offer from St Johns.

Dinner? Man, that sounds really nice and cosily.

"Are you sure it is a good idea about the dinner? I mean I agree with the deal about the food for the gas, but now dinner?" Emily asked with a skeptical look.

I am surprised by my sister's doubt about the dinner.

"Hey, what's change your mind?" Travis asked. Emily shaking her head that we don't get her point. "I mean, we are invited to the dinner by strangers. I don't know about you guys, but I don't like bother somebody's privacy." Emily said as Lilly nods that she agree with her.

"She's right. But let's don't be hard when we have our foot on their property." Lilly said.

"I wanna see the dairy farm, Em, please?" I said so kind as she looking at me for a while and then. "Okay, but stay close to me or Axel if I'm not around with you, okay?" Emily said little bossy, but not with strictly tones as I nods.

I'm glad that she's not Tess. I wonder what would Tess answer if she was here.

"So what are we waiting for? Let's go to the dairy." Kenny said. "Hold on, we can't just leave the motor inn without guarding. What if more people show up here and take over the motor inn when we worked so hard to make it safe?" Lilly said with a loud tones.

I see Kenny sent an annoying glare towards Lilly as she never agree with him again. But he should know what if some people taking over the motor inn and that will cost RV too that Kenny has work on it.

"All right, look, how about the boys, Doug and I stay here and keep an eye on the place while you all go have some dinner?" Carley said as Doug nods that he agree with her. But the boys was disappointing and nervous too.

"Why me?" Ben asked nervous.

"Come on, I want to eat in the dinner." Travis complained.

Oh please, is he really a crybaby?

"We have almost eaten half of all breads. It's kind of fair for all of us." Carley said as the boys sinking their heads.

"I...guess so." Ben answered.

"See, problem is solved. Can we go now before we're late for the dinner." Kenny said.

"Oh and just go that way until you find a pathway. Axel have tied up his bands around the trees as a track to the dairy." Doug said as the rest nods.

"Okay, we will back later." Lilly said as we start to walk. We were going through the gate when Kenny opened it. Doug close it after all of us went to the woods.

I starting to be little nervous as Clem and Duck as well. We never have been outside of the motel since we moved from the drugstore for three months ago when the walkers shows up.

I hope Larry will not screw up at the dairy just like what he did to Dix. I remember how Dix came back with... his father's hand... yuck, maybe I should forget about that moment. And then Dix refuse to deliver his meat of animal to Larry as the punishment what he did. I guess that dick guy deserve it, but that result lead him to be angry and start to threaten him as well.

"Are you okay, Cath?" I looking at my sister who asked me. "I'm okay. Just... I never been outside here of the motel since..." I shaking little until Emily put her hand on my head.

"Don't worry, Cath. As long I am here, you never will be hurt or worse." Emily said as I leaned my head on her waist and a tear appear from my left eye.

I love you, sis.
