Chapter 76: April-May

Axel's POV

I crossed my arms and looking through the window to the see the view.

We have been arguing about leave.

The winter has moved on and the snow has melted away.

It's not cold anymore and I think it's time to move on, but Christa were still stubborn never find more strangers or places like to help her baby. But she's actually agree to moving on.

I know she's just worry about her baby and all of us too, but for the cry's sake we need to get move on.

This house will not be safe forever.

But one problem is the walkers will walk so normal as they were freeze by the cold faster than we the living.

"Axel, I don't think we can't leaving yet, Christa's baby's birth will be on the next month or two or three months, and this place is a good place to deliver the baby in this world." Emily pleaded me.

I sighed. I know it might be good a good place to deliver a baby in this... unforgivable world, but who knows what will happen here before that. We can't stay here another winter. Benjamin would be more hard to insist to keep moving on.

"I'll be fine, Em. We always find a good place for my baby." Christa insisted.

Emily looked more concernedly at the woman.

"Emily, if she say we have to keep moving, then we do it. It's her own decision to make, not us." I pointed out as Emily sighed in defeated and then nodded.

"Okay, you're right. I'll go call the kids and the others that we have to pack our stuff." Emily said and went down to the previous floor.


Benjamin's POV

I load the last pack of supplies in the SUV, and then close the tailgate.

Christa, Clem, Cath and Emily is already in the car. Which it's leaving me, Tim, Omid and Axel who knows what he's doing in the house as he told that he was going to do something.

"All right, everything is settled. Let's just..." But I trailed off when I saw a smoke from the distance, right next to the house of Dixon. What the hell?

"Hey." I paid Tim's and Omid's attentions. "You guys see that?" I pointed at the smoke.

"What?! A fire?" Tim suggested. "But... Axel is still there, what the hell is he doing?"

Good question, he was something little in the bad mood today. What the hell is he up to now?

I narrows my eyes at the smoke. "Stay here with the others. Tim and I go check out and see if Axel's alright." Me and Tim start rushing to the smoke and leaving Omid and the others behind with SUV.


When we came back to the house, I found Axel who just throw some papers with fire at a shed at the perimeter of the place.

I widened my eyes in shock. What the fuck?!

He's burning a shed?!

"Axel!" Tim yelled to him, but it seems like he just ignored us and continued to burning the shed which we looking at each other before we dashing straight to him.

Then he noticed us when we getting close to him as the teenager hunter throw another burning paper thing at the shed as it's firing so huge.

Okay... can he please tell what's going on between him and the shed?!

"Axel? What in the world are you doing?" Tim inquired as Axel just grumbled. "What it looks like?" He didn't even laid off his eyes from the burning shed.

Excuse me? I crossed my arms.

"Eh... burning a shed down into ashes?" Tim guessed.

"Yes and no." Axel throw another burning object at the burning shed even it's have already much fire to burn it down. "Yes, I burning it down into ashes. And no, it's not a shed. It's my fucking grandfather's stupid SHRINE!" Axel corrected angrily and just throw the last burning object.

Then he put hands on over his lap and take some breaths.

I raised a eyebrow.

Shrine?

Axel bends up again and glare at the burning shred.

"Sorry, I'm just... After all these years how he abused me and my other relatives sometime, I just wanna give him a lesson." He explained with a anger tone in his voice. "He always going in that little building when he's high and smoking so many cigarettes in there, drink many alcohol."

I and Tim are looking shock at him and then at the burning shed. I see... I guess he has finally give a lesson back to his gramps even that old man isn't around here anymore.

"Come, let's get the hell out of here." Axel ordered us to walk away as we follow him. After a moment, he turned around again to the shed as it's collapsing down and then, he give it a finger.

I smirk and rolled my eyes. Well, I guess relatives is the worst.

"What a Walpurgis Night." Tim joked as I chuckled and Axel smirk little.

Then we continued to walk back to the others, leaving the burning shed and the house of Dixon behind.


Axel's POV

It has been three weeks since when we left the house and... I held the wheel tightly of the anger.

After I burned that fucking shrine...

We running on 85 route. We have been passed so many walkers as I make sure that I won't hit any of them or something.

Then I heard something a small explosion from the car's hooded. What the fuck?!

The car is getting slowly even I pulled on the speed.

You got to kidding me!

"What happened?" Omid asked.

"The engine has screwed up or something. We gotta stop." I said and start parking where there's no walkers on this part of the main road.

When I stop the car, some of us get out of the car.

I went to the hooded and open it. I see the white smoke came from the solenoid. Oh please! Not now!

"Fuck!" I exclaimed. "What is it? How bad is it?" Benjamin asks and approach me. "It ain't gonna fix it anymore. All we need is just like what we need for that goddamn boat. The solenoid this time actually." I explained and suddenly, pondered my fist on the hooded after I closed it.

"Dammit. We're still in Georgia, not even in half-decent way to the north." Benjamin groaned.

I sighed. Looks like our lucky has ended for now.

I heading to the others who are still in the car.

"Everyone, let's go out now. The solenoid is broken, and we can't stay in the open here." I said as the girls jump out of the car while Christa gently step out off with Omid's and Emily's supports.

Then I saw a walker came out of the forest as I sighed and grabbed my crossbow. I aiming at it and shoot. The arrow stick through the skull.

I went to it and yank the arrow off the head.

"Let's go." Tim said to everyone as we start wander in the road and continue our trip.
