Thank you all for commenting on my story :D They make me happy and they help motivate me to keep on writing. :D-Kate
I sat there in Glenn's tent thinking. Was Glenn that little boy? Is it true what they say that you can block out bad memories? Now that I think of it, my childhood was mostly blacked out. I rub my head, a headache was forming.
"Avis?" someone asked. Glenn appeared at the door of the tent. "Hey, you're up. You okay?" I nodded. Glenn came in and sat down. He handed me some clothes to change into. He had changed too. I thanked him and he left. I changed into the other pair of jeans, a red t-shirt, and some sneakers. They are very nice to let me have extra clothes. I sigh and get out of the tent. Everyone has their duties here at the camp. I walk around and say morning to everyone.
I notice Rick has woken up also. "Mornin'," I say.
"Morning," he replies. I notice Glenn watching Jim, Dale, and Morales take apart his nice red car. I place my hand on his shoulder and he looks at me then looks back at the car. Rick has followed.
"Look at 'em, vultures. Yeah, just strip it clean," he complains.
"Generators need every drop of fuel they can get." says Dale.
"It's just a car Glenn," I giggle. He shakes his head in disapproval.
"Yeah, well I thought I'd at least get to drive a few more times," he says.
"Maybe next time, we'll steal another one," says Rick. Rick leaves and I pat Glenn on the back. Shane then pulls up with water. I suddenly realize that I haven't showered in like forever. Glenn, Shane, and Amy get the water out of the back of car. Suddenly there's screams. Rick, Lori, Shane, Glenn, Morales, and Dale run up first. I run with Andrea and Amy to see that Jacqui and Lori are taking care of Sophia and Carl. Carol shows up and hugs Sophia tightly.
The guys are now beating the walker and finally Dale cuts it's head off.
"That's the first one we've had up here. They've never come up this far before." says Dale.
"They're running out of food in the city," says Jim. Suddenly there's some rustling noises. Then a man appears. He's carrying a crossbow.
"Oh, man! That's my deer. I've been trackin' it for miles. Now it's been gnawed on by this sum' bitch," he starts kicking the walker's body. I assume that's Daryl. "Maybe we could save it?" I don't think I'd be eating it.
"I wouldn't risk it." says Rick. Suddenly the walker starts moving again. How's that even possible?
"Oh, God," Amy walks off with Andrea.
"Come on people, ya got to get it in the brain," says Daryl, I assume. Daryl shoots the walker's head and grabs his arrow. I let him pass by first and wait for Glenn.
"Who is that?" I ask.
"That. Was Daryl." he states. We all walk back to camp and Daryl is trying to find Merle. Daryl had been hunting a while back, and brought back squirrel for the camp.
Shane goes up to Daryl and starts to explain to Daryl what happen back in Atlanta. Everyone watches closely.
"Is he dead?" ask Daryl.
"Not sure," replies Shane.
"Look, Merle was a danger to us all. So, I handcuffed him to the roof of a building." says Rick.
"Hold on, let me process all of this. So you left my brother on the roof?" Daryl asks.
"Yeah," Daryl got very angry and threw his game at Rick. He starts after Rick and is knocked down by Shane. Daryl pull a knife out and gets back up. I back away with Glenn and others.
"Watch the knife," says Shane. Daryl swings at Rick but lucky for him he misses. Finally Shane grabs Daryl in a choke hold.
"Choke hold's illegal!" says Daryl.
"I want a calm discussion on this topic, can we manage that?" asks Rick. Shane lets go of Daryl. "Your brother does not play with others."
"Look, it was my fault. I dropped the key," says T-dog.
"You couldn't pick it up?" asks Daryl.
"I dropped it down the drain." replied T-dog. I rub my head again. Damn headache.
"If that's suppose to make me feel better it don'." Daryl gets up and paces a bit. "Just tell me where he's at so's I can go an get 'em."
"He'll show you," Lori joins in, "ain't that right?" She seems upset.
"Look, I'm going back." says Rick. This day couldn't be worse.
