Welcome back to The hellish world we live in! Now, I don't think you guys actually understood what the choices were last chapter, it was get out or take over but once you pick one of those you also have to choose whether to use the vents or ask Kaitlyn. But I have tallied up the votes in an awkward sort of way, I first had to count how many people wanted to take over or get out and then tally how many people wanted to use the vents and/or wanted to ask Kaitlyn. Just throwing that out there. So over all, it was this;
Take over
Ask Kaitlyn.
Ok then. Let's see what plays out… But anyway, this is the last chapter of episode 1!
And I just want to tell everyone how glad I am about how much people have liked this series! I didn't think people would have actually read this, thanks guys!

Drew's POV
The next day, we decided to put our plan into action. As soon as Damien and Troy woke us up, we went to where we were assigned. Me, Carlos, Mike, Chad and Skay went to work at the armory, Kaitlyn would be there. We had agreed that whoever was to be by her would ask her. If we failed at this, we had no chance. I was also tasked to ask her… crud. Kaitlyn was also there when we were escorted so now would be my best chance.
"Uh, Kaitlyn…" I spoke in a soft voice so only she could hear. She glanced at me.
"Listen Drew, I'm sorry about yesterday-" She started but I cut her off.
"That doesn't matter, listen, Kaitlyn, we're going to take this place over, we can't do this on our own, we need your help. I know you hate Damien and Troy as well as Carve-"
"Carver died a day age from blood loss." She answered plainly. This came as a shock to me, Carver, the most hated man among our group dead. This was going to work out in our favor majorly. Thank god Shiana, Cristina and Chad were there.
"Well, will you help us?" Kaitlyn muttered something and answered.
"Fine. I'll hand you guys the guns and whatever you brought at lunch." I couldn't believe my ears, this might actually work!
*Lunch, Carver's camp 12:00PM*
Kaitlyn kept her promise and handed us the guns and other weapons at lunch. She also said lunch was the best time to strike because then, most of the guards would be on break. I looked over to Kaitlyn to see her mouth the words
3… Everyone tensed, looking at the guards…
2… The guards are laughing at the table next to us, most likely at us…
1… Everyone grips their weapon...
0… all chaos erupts. Kenny jumps up, spraying bullets from his SMG while Shiana tackles a guard that was sipping some coffee, sitting on him, punching his face over and over. Chad throws knives at the guard on the wall, hitting him in the chest. Will throws a grenade at the door which guards had begun to scramble in and out from. (A/N: I can imagine this in my head, if anyone has any fan art for me, it would be much appreciated. Just try to imagine the chaos in this scene…) I pull out a sniper rifle while the door explodes, sending wall bits everywhere. The guards now begin to return fire, I saw Nick go down, a bullet in his chest. He went still. (A/N: You know, if we saved Reggie, Reggie would have saved Nick, choices still have a long effect on everything, even if it isn't immediate, like the game.) I saw Will go down, a bullet in his right arm. I took cover by a table, returning fire, hitting what looked like Troy in the head. Bulls-eye. Suddenly, I was pushed down. I looked up to see Damien over me, a knife in his hands. The knife edged close to my throat. A little too close.
"HEY!" Damien shouted. All attention was now directed to him.
"Cease fire! Give up, or... This little mother *explicit* dies…" Damien said, trailing off. All gunfire was then stopped. Everyone looked at me.
"Now, throw you're guns to the floor." Everyone complied. Damien turned to the remaining guards.
"Kill them."
The guards nodded, opening fire on my group. No. This wasn't happening. My group scrambled to whatever cover they could find, but some of them like Kaitlyn, Cristina and Carlos weren't as lucky and was sprayed by bullets, killing them instantly. I felt tears run down my cheeks. Damien laughed and let go of me, kicking me down to my knees.
"Not so tough are you now little guy? Seeing everyone you cared for die? WELL TOO FUCKING BAD BITCH!" I curled myself into a ball, Lessing the pain of Damien's kicks. Then, a gray ball of fur burst from my jacket, hitting Damien making Damien replying with an 'oaf' of surprise. I looked up to see Smokey tackling Damien. Smokey was thin and hungry but he would give up anything for me. Seeing this, I got up, grabbed a pistol and shot Damien in between his eyes. I looked at the guards. They had stopped firing, looking at me. I looked around to see bodies litter the ground, from both sides. But we pulled through and that's what matters. I felt myself harden. This changed me for better or for worse. I stood tall while my people slowly got out from the benches, looking around them. 'We have made it' I thought but I thought too soon. Soon, I low groan came from the bodies of the dead as they stumbled back up. Then, a groan also came from by the doors, the horde. They must've heard the gunfire and with every guard down here, no one had noticed. Soon, the walkers became overpowering for the guards and the walkers killed them all, turning them into one their own. We in the meantime had set our eyes on the vents as an escape route. We were helping one another through them when the walkers turned to us, stumbling to us. We had just enough time to get us all through the vents as the horde reached us. We heard moans coming from the vent opening as the walkers then started to pile up, making their way to the opening of the vents. First off, we went for the supplies. We all dropped down in the supply room, grabbed what we could carry and ran for the exit. Behind us, walkers began to stumble out from the vents around us. We were just able to run through the exit, we didn't know where we were heading nor did we really care. All of us had one thought:
Survival.
Well, that was one heck of a chapter! Just making this made me go teary eyed. Hope you enjoyed episode 1!
Next time on episode 2, no place to hide…
Who are you?
You killed my friends' bastards!
You aren't welcome here, be gone! And don't come back!
What is it all worth? What is life worth now?
Please, stop! Don't-
*Bang*
