Hi everyone, I've had this idea in my head for a while now. Each chapter I will try to make a little longer then the last. If any of you see something wrong with grammar or spelling please let me know. I do spell check, but it sucks most of the time.

Please review. I like to hear feed make. It makes me happy and want to write more. Currently my family, is gone, so there will be more updating. After the they come back, it will slow down because my aunt, uncle, and cousin do not believe in doing anything that is not productive and causes one to earn money or reputation in society. Also, I am taking a summer class that will also be taking up time while I am not at work. So enjoy the speedy updates and please send me a review!

Thank you

Ch. 3

The darkness was pleasant. Nothing to worry about. My sisters are safe, we are back with our family, and the dogs are licking my check…

I bolt upright and glare at the little dogs that were licking my check. Three Chihuahuas stare at me from their small bed. What are Chihuahuas doing in my face? More importantly,…who was the asshole that hit me in the head? How long have I been out?

"So you're finally awake." A Hispanic male in his late 20's is sitting on my left.

"Who are you and where am I?" The pounding in my head got worse in that second and spots started to appear. "Also, who the fuck hit me?"

"I'm Guillermo and this is my house. I am the one that hit you and why are you here?" This man is tense. I can smell it on him. He is afraid. I can understand why too. This world has gone to shit and there is no changing it.

"Don't worry. I came here looking for shelter. I have been roof jumping for many blocks and was finally far enough away from the city to climb down. The window to this place was just open. I did not know anyone was here otherwise I would have knocked." I lock around to find my bag only to see that it was missing. "Where is my stuff?"

Guillermo looked a little guilty. "I don't know if I can trust you so your stuff will stay with me until I know that I can trust you or you leave." Guillermo shifted from foot to foot. A show of how scared and nervous he actually is.

"That is fine, but I want it back before I leave." Guillermo nodded his head in agreement. "Meanwhile, if you need help please let me know. I won't be but a day or two before I leave, but I have medical training."

"We are in much need of medical help. Can you look at a few of my people?"

I nod my head. "One more question." Guillermo nods for me to continue. "Have you seen any of these girls?" I pull out the picture with me and my two sisters. He shakes his head.

"Sorry"

"It's okay…..I just really need to find them. Alright let me see your wounded." For the rest of the day I was patching up his men and the elderly that were here. Recently some men went out and then came back. One had an arrow in his butt and the other was a Korean man with a few bruised ribs. Currently, I am working on the Korean whose name is Glenn. "So what happened to you?"

"Your boys here jumped my group and me. We were trying to get some guns that were left by one of our group yesterday." At his words, I pause in my work. "Hey are you alright?"

"…..yeah….is this person a Rick Grimms? An officer of the law?"

"He is! Do you know him?" Glenn looked so happy that it made me said to say this.

"I do. I am the one that you guys left behind yesterday." All the color drained from his face. "Yeah. I'm the one that shot that man's hand….." The conversation ended after that and the air became tense. Once I was finished, I stood up and began to clean up around me.

I began to leave when Glenn grabbed my arm. "Please understand! Rick had no choice. There were too many Walkers and we had to leave or all die! Rick planned to come get you. You and Merle!" Glenn had let go of my arm during his little speech.

I continued on to the next person. Out of my peripheral, I saw some of Guillermo's men drag Glenn away. It doesn't matter that he left or that Rick planned to come back. Him leaving was probably for the best. I don't have to worry about him or anyone other than my sisters and myself. I don't have to hide my true self. The beast that sleeps inside me and comes forth when called.

Humans don't understand the burden of being different. They think that is world is a curse and full of darkness, but to the others, it is freedom. We no longer have to hide in the dark. We can come into the light and be what we have always been and will always be. We are free from the burdens of society and rejection. Humans will most likely die, but we will survive and we will live. I can be my true self.

A commotion causes my attention to be diverted to the coming back inside. Glenn is with them and appears to be duct-taped, tied, and about to shit his pants. The boys bring him over to me. "You stay here and help chicka with her work." Glenn just nods. The rope is easily dealt with; the duct-tape is a little trickier. Glenn is soon untied and a big red line across his mouth.

"Alright, I'm going to put you to work. We start here" I begin to show him the ropes of medical care. Just the basics that can be done in a rush. Guillermo comes up and asks if I know anything about cars. When I say yes, he leads the both of us to some cars that I repair to the best of my ability with the limited parts I had.

I am in the middle of showing Glenn how to fix a hose with only gum and tape when he turns to me. "You know. I was telling the truth when I said that Rick was coming back to get you. You are amazing too. I saw how you drew off all those Walkers. How did you make out?"

I just laughed. "With a lot of running. And please no offense when I say this, but I don't believe him, Raven, or you. My kind do not mix with you and I don't mean race." I pause in my work and glance over at Glenn. "Rick leaving was for the best. All of you would have died if you waited for me." He doesn't say anything. A moment later Guillermo comes towards us.

"You need to head back. The Asian's group is here."

Both Glenn and I head back inside. All these people, these elderly people that I know no one cares for, are going to die if nothing is done. One of the elderly, a black man with asthma problems, begins hacking and coughing. Glenn and I rush over.

I kneel before the man. "Hello. I'm going to help you. Now can you breathe deeply?" Shake of his head. "Okay…..Abuela" A little old lady who is Felipe's grandmother. "Ve a Felipe y decirle señor Gilbert está teniendo un ataque. Él tiene la medicina del señor Gilbert. Gracias y por favor, date prisa." (Go get Felipe and tell him Mister Gilbert is having an attack. He has Mister Gilbert's medicine. Thank you and hurry please.) Abuela hurries off to find Felipe. Glenn stayed off to the side, while I breathed slowly with Mr. Gilbert. Not too long later Felipe comes running in along with Rick and two guys that I don't know. Rick and his group quickly run over to Glenn.

Me. I walk over to Guillermo. "I would like my things now. It is time that I leave." He nods and grabs my bags and weapons. "Thank you."

"No thank you. There is much that you have helped with. Even though it has only been a day, we appreciate all you have done."

I nod and grab his arm. "Listen and listen carefully. Go northwest. Go to Washington State if you can. I know that there is a refugee there. My family runs it. If you tell them my name….my full name they will let you and everyone in without questions." I hand him a piece of paper. Dea Venatu Custos.
