Lessons

As I pulled the trigger I could feel the force of the gun pulling me back, the board falling was obliterated including a walker. I did it. What? What's that behind me, OH FU- I watched as a knife was thrown and pierced the skull of the walker, And my knife? I looked back to see Clem. I gave a thumbs up before pulling the

knife out, and bolted the rifle and took another shot, which obliterated another walker head, and I ran to Lee's side. I slung the gun on my back and pulled out my katana, A New Hope.

"You ready Lee?"

"If you are"

And I gutted the walker in front of me. Me and Lee went on a blazing fury, I decapitated, incapacitated, impaled, I wrecked every god damn walker that stands in front of me. I looked back to see that Jane has freed Sarah.

"LET'S GO LEE!"

With no hesitation Lee went up the slope with Sarah and Jane tailing behind, I climbed up the slope too, and shit. I rolled back from the collapsing deck.

"ETRIUS!"

"DON'T WORRY!"

"Don't, worry Clem…"

I could feel the cold breath whisper through my skin, and I brought out my rifle and took my shot, which penetrated through walker and walker. I looked around to realize I was surrounded, against the wall. I looked up, my only option. And I pulled my strength onto the wall and ran then jammed the wall with two of my knives then forced myself up against gravity and pulled my knives out and landed on the roof. I did it, I've escaped fate again. I have did this much and gone so far, for you my Clem. I jumped down to the remains of the deck. I could see a happy Clementine jumping at me with a hug, which made me fall down, ow a bit too hard Clem don't you think? I never felt so happy though, genuine happiness. Maybe love can exist, even in a world like this. I feel like I'm sweating, well my shirt is wet wait. Clem? I looked down to see her crying.

"Clem?"

She looked up with one of those faces that would melt the most evil being's heart and I can be a big softie, so it's basically making me go crazy.

"Cle-"

And she just pulled me in kissing me in the lips… uh, um, I, I just feel. How can I explain something better than genuine happiness? And no not pleasure, that's not right at all. I feel like I could fly, I could feel like I can fly, I feel like I can do anything with her here.

"Hey?"

Clem pulled away from me in seconds looking at what it was, Lee… well. Erm.

"Hmm, I thought you two would be a match."

"Erm…"

And he just laughed.

"Nah, just kidding."

We just stared at him.

"Wait… really?"

Me and Clem just stared at each other embarrassed, apparently Lee didn't see us kiss after all.

"Well, didn't expect that."

I looked around.

"Well, this is awkward."

I got up with Clem, standing.

"Well we should go check in for Rebecca's baby."

We all went inside, it had like a counter, and some shelves and racks. I looked to see Rebecca's baby.

"Wow, it's a baby"

I think I lost the enthusiasm in my voice, but this truly made me happy.

"Yeah, and the most beautiful baby."

I couldn't help but smile, then dropped at the problems this baby can bring. I looked over to see what seem'd a broken Sarah.

"Clem, what happened?"

"... Carlos was killed, Nick was killed."

"Oh…"

I looked back to Sarah, She needs to learn how to survive hell.

"Hey Clem, we should teach Sarah some stuff."

"I guess, let's see, teach her how to shoot a gun, and probably how to stab things."

"And cut her hair too"

"Yeah that too."

Clem, was forming a smirk on her face when she was looking at me.

"What?"

"And we might as well cut your hair."

I went pale at that, I never liked haircuts.

"Is it necessary Clem?"

"Yep, Yep it is."

"Oh come on."

She walked off to get Sarah.

"Ok fine Clem, but I'm teaching you how to shoot a rifle and other stuff."

She turned around with a pale face.

"Isn't that gonna hurt?"

"Yep, it's going too"

"Oh come on, that's not fair."

"Hey, you cut my hair, you're shooting this rifle."

"Ok fine."

I couldn't help but laugh. Let's see, teach Sarah some stuff and teach Clem some martial arts and how to shoot a rifle. And then Selly came out of nowhere, what?

"Etrius… do you actually love me?"

Oh no...I placed my hand on her shoulder but she just pushed it away.

"Sel…"

"I saw you with Clem! How sad she was when you were gone and how happy she was when we saw you! All I ask is the truth!"

The truth…

"Sel… I-I don't"

I only can watch while she fell in tears, I just felt like a monster. I walked away from her because I just couldn't take it from what I had done. I'm sorry Sel, we're now far apart. I looked back oh no, SHIT. I ran back to where she was previously at only to see her running into the distance.

"SELENA!"

She didn't bothered to look back. I tried to run after her but I felt like I was falling...
