A/N I don't remember fully what happened in the past seasons, but I'll try follow as much as I can remember, some things might not be added and some new things might be added. I will also try go back to the older seasons some time in the future and maybe come back and change these to fit it more, until then I hope that you enjoy this story anyway.
Tyler runs up to the gate of this small prison type place that we found. It's not the best and pretty run down but it's our home, it's all we have. I watch as Stacy runs after Tyler who is also running.
"Hold her a sec." Mason gives me to ben and opens the gate for them, I get carried in by Ben who doesn't know where he's going. I listen to Mason laugh and can't help but laugh myself.
"What happened to you?" I half smile at Claudia and say "I fell onto glass" she takes me from Mason and puts me on the table. I look at the ground and sort of miss being able to walk on it. I give a little scream to every touch, luckily no one is around right now so I didn't really bother with trying to hide my pain. When Claudia finally patched my leg up she offered her hand to help me up, I took it and tried to stand. It was really painful at first but I started getting used to it. She helped me walk to the main room where everyone was. The second Tyler saw me he stood up and called for everyone's attention.
"As you all know we have some new faces here" Tyler points to the new people and everyone mumbles to themselves. Tyler motions for them to walk up and they do, they stand in front of everyone awkwardly trying not to be hated.
"This is Ben, he's 17, Amanda, 23, and Spencer who is 24. Now I don't expect everyone to start hugging and acting as though we've know each other our whole life, but what I do expect it that we all try be civil. Ben said he just needs a place to stay, he won't necessarily be taking our food and become one with us. He will however be going on supply runs and joining any fights. I understand if anyone feels threatened or doesn't want them here but instead of making a scene please come see me alone and we will talk this out." I nod at Tyler as he leaves to go to his room.
"Hey." I turn with a scared look. I stare at Maggie and try to relax. She gives me both a happy and worried smile. I return one and say "I'm sorry it's just I feel a little more jumpy since I got hurt, like I have less of an escape." She nods at me and looks at my leg.
"How is it?" I shrug while looking down.
"It's okay I guess, hurt like hell when it first happened but I'm getting used to it." She gives me a hug leaving me shocked. Maggie is my sister, we were always pretty close but ever since this end of the world crap started she's been distant. Maggie was only 16 when this happened. I vowed to protect her no matter what, and that I did. She turned 17 a few weeks ago, or months, no one knows the days anymore, she might even be 18 now, I don't have a clue. Once Maggie let go and went off to do her own thing I decided to go see Tyler. I walked out of the room into the hall, it was pretty empty and quiet, I liked that. I wobbled slowly like a penguin over to Tyler's room, I didn't bother knocking instead I just opened to door and walked in. Luckily it was just him fully clothed doing nothing, he looked up and saw me.
"You shouldn't be walking, here." He grabbed my hand and sat me down on his bed.
"What are you doing here anyways?" I shrugged at him and looked around.
"I don't know, just thinking about stuff I guess." I looked him in the eyes, he gave me a look for me to continue.
"Like, I'm not sure if I made the right choice on letting them stay, what if they're bad people?" He gives me an understanding smile and laughs a little.
"You remember when we were little, like 13 maybe younger?" I nod at him and try remember all the things we did.
"Well you used to say to me 'always believe it till it's proven wrong' and I stuck by that my whole life, I think you should listen to yourself." I stare at him confused, that makes no sense. He laughs once more and starts explaining.
"Look, you said they could stay, why?"
"I guess because they weren't doing that great on their own, they seemed like they had nothing."
"So why now do you think they're bad?"
"I don't really, I just have trust issues."
"I know, but I think they're okay and even if they're not I won't let them hurt any of us." I smile at him and then attempt to stand up.
"Here let me help." I sit back down and let him pull me up. He helps me out of the room and I tell him I can go myself now. I walk around not really doing anything, I do some random chores and then go to my own room. It was pretty late so I was tired, the second my face touched my pillow I was out faster than a light.
I awoke to the sound of screams and crying, what the hell was happening? I get up as fast as I could with an injury and open my door, not even a second later I back up and shut my door again. It was Ben, he was a walker. I grab my bag but that I never unpack and put it on, grabbing my bow and knife before leaving. I shoot any walkers that come near me without hesitation, I avoid looking at their faces, I don't want emotions to make me die. I run down the hallway looking in each room, most were empty, others were dead. I run into Tyler and we fall to the floor.
"Shit." We say in unison, I look up at him and ignore whatever pain I had to hug him, he does the same. He helps me up and I pass him the knife. I follow him in his search for survivors, we turn a corncer and see Stacy. She was backed up to a wall full of bite marks. I watch as Tyler turns from devastated to angry. He storms off and I follow to protect him. He was fast but even with this injury I was faster. On the way I found Mason, from the looks of things he was trying to protect my sister but he didn't have any weapons. I cried to myself at the sight of both Mason and my sister dead. I continued moving so I didn't lose Tyler too, he stopped when he got to the exit and we both left this place. He had his bag and I had mine, now all we need to do is survive on our own.
