Aria : Chapter 3 and please don't mind the grammar, I'm working on it.


Its has been pass two days since Sophia with them, which mean almost a month and a half since Glenn joining Thalia and Ryan. Its really a funny turn for her. Every time she decide to go toward a place she always find something and someone, like finding Thalia and Ryan when she decide to hide on the apartment, getting a bike when she scounting a village just to leave it because of a hoard attack, then meeting Sophia on the forest and well now, they have a car that park not far away from the store, and its a Porsche. The problem is, theres a hoard of zombies that wandering around the street.

"You think we will make it?" Asked Thalia as she packing all the can food that can still being eat, and also the snack that they lucky enough to gets. And tampons, they surely need it, especially when the time for Thalia is coming near. Thats why they need that car to keep going. Fresh blood attract zombies, she learn it on the hard way.

"We will." Said Glenn as she watching the zombies, "The road to go there is clean only have two zombies wondering around." Said Glenn as she wear her bag, "Beside we need the car to you know." Thalia give her a nods before fixing her attention to the kids.

"Okay, you two see the cars at there. We will make a run for it, don't stop and don't get away from the line. Me and Glenn going to take care of the zombies, you two have to run." Said Thalia.

"Why did you call them zombies?" Asked Sophia confusely.

"Well, because they are zombies." Said Thalia as if it was the oblivious answer for all the problem. That things is a dead that raising from it grave and here to eat living people, what they suppose to call them, cannibals.

"Mama call them walkers." Said Sophia.

"We should find a better name for them." Said Ryan which make Thalia sigh.

"Okay then, if we arrive and get inside the car we will decide to name them for this little group." Said Thalia as she wink to the kids.

"You ready?" Asked Glenn as she hold her machete, she love her baseball bat, but right now she need a kind of weapon that can kill the zombies as fast and one hit, bat isn't an option. Beside the machete that Ryan bring isn't being use, and Thalia already have her nail gun. The three nods their head and then Glenn open the door as they make a ran for it toward the car. The zombies notice them when they step outside the store.

Glenn swing the machete to the zombie that block her path right into its head. Ryan and Sophia follow her as they keep some distance from the machete. Thalia shot the zombies that geting near from behind them. They reach the car and as Glenn work her magic inside, Thalia kept firing her nail gun, taking down some of the walker. Its a good thing her aim perfect and shot right at their head. The two kids doing a smart thing like stay silent and get inside the car when the door open. Thalia kept firing the zombies but even thought she have a nail gun, its still out number her as they walking closely, and her hurt-palm starting to getting hurt. The engineer sound fill the air and Thalia almost cry in happiness as she get inside and Glenn drove them away from the small village.

"I don't believe it. We did it!" Said Thalia as she smile, "High-five kids." She recieve a high-five from Ryan and Sophia as they cheer in happiness.

"And I'm riding a Porsche!" Said Glenn as she grinning happily. For a moments they felt like everything is normal, riding happily inside a car and doesn't get to worry from the zombies, "Our run would be much easier now!" Said Glenn.

"Yeah, but I would choose a RV you know. Its have bed and small kitchen." Said Thalia.

"Old man Dale have an RV, there a bed and a kitchen too, and toilet." Said Sophia happily.

"Then, we better get there soon." Said Glenn.

The car has been silent for a moments before Sophia speak up her mind, "So about the zombies?"

"Right. I vote for Geeks." Said Glenn.

"Bitter sound cool. Since you know they bite." Said Ryan.

"How about we stick with zombies." Said Thalia.

"I choose walker." Said Sophia.

"Okay, so theres geeks, bitters, zombies and walkers." Said Glenn as she smile softly, "We need a short call for them, so we can warn one each other faster. Walkers and geeks sound cool. Since we planning to join Sophia group, why not call it walkers?"

"Good idea." Said Thalia as she smile to Sophia, "Walk-ers seem funny to say. Like 'I'm walk-ers and need yer braa-iinn, meeh-at'." Said Thalia as she pretend to be the walkers and trying reach the kids who are giggles. She smile before looking toward the road and looking at Glenn, "Try the radio?"

"Lets try." Glenn put the radio on as they try to find a voice. But none were hear and those making the two sigh, "Had seen it coming."

"Its not only us and Sophia group right?" Asked Thalia in a little voice.

"I bet its not only us, and I also bet that theres some military base and we can hear it if we inside their way." Said Glenn, "How was your palm?" Asked Glenn as she peek at Thalia hands.

"Ah, its not that hurt. I can bare with it." Said Thalia, "But I think we need to find a new cloths, I'm not going to use this all over time, need a new one. And so does Sophia."

Glenn open the dashboard, "Search for a map." Thalia do as she being told and sigh in irritation when she cannot find one.

"Who ever buy this car he or she surely never use this car to traveling." Said Thalia with a huff.

"Worth a try." Said Glenn, "Well lets see the end of the road hopefully that we find any village or store. Sorry Sophia, but we have to find some cloths." A nod was all her answer.

"It would be easier." Said Sophia, "Beside we maybe directly going toward mama and others." Said Sophia, "They said they going to Fort Benning."

"Well, lets see the Fort Benning then." Said Glenn, "We will get a map in the next town or village that we find and then we would know where we going."

But its not simple as that..

Glenn has drive almost all day and theres no sign of house or a village, maybe they are to far away. Or they get lost,can someone even get lost while there just one road that going into one direction, its either back or the front. Glenn looking from the mirror to see Ryan and Sophia that sleeping behind, and she saw Thalia who also sleeping peaceful beside her. Oh how she want to have a nice peacefuld sleep too. But its seem that the only one that can drive is only her, and Thalia cannot even drive a bike with out falling twice.

She looking toward the gas bar and almost cruse out loud when she saw it almost empty. They have to find a gas station soon before its run out. Theres no fucking way that she leaving behind this beautiful things. Then the miracle happen. She doesn't know how it was happening but its just like that, she see a car moving slowly in front of her when the car come into the view. It could be one of Sophia group.

"Guys, we meet people." The three other wake up as she speed up a little her car, "One of your group, Sophia?"

"I never see the car before." Said Sophia as she looking toward the car.

"A new car?" Asked Ryan.

"Theres only one thing to find out." Said Glenn as she drive beside the car. She doesn't want to risk it, but her gas almost empty and she need to find town soon or if lady luck favor her so much she can find a safe place also. She pull down her window and the other car follow her, inside there is a man, look like a mexican with his family, "Hey, sorry to bother but do you somehow know where the nearest village or town is?" Asked Glenn.

"Yeah, its not far away on the front. We also want to go there. Wanna team up?" Glenn doesn't trust this man. Even if theres a female beside him who she know as his wife she still doubt them. But this is the only option, beside they out numbers him on people.

"Sure. Why not?" Asked Glenn, "Just when we arrive at the town. What are you looking at there?"

"The same reason as you?" Asked the man back.

"Good point." Said Glenn before following the man behind.

"So, we team up with two survivors." Said Thalia.

"They doesn't look like someone that can do any harm, beside they know the nearest town. We almost run out gas." Explain Glenn.

"I will prepare my nail gun just in case." Said Thalia.

"We are not gonna shot them, are we?" Asked Sophia in little voice.

"No, we won't." Said Glenn as she smile trying to not scare the girl.

"Unless they hurt us first." Said Ryan, "Its call self defense." Whisper him slowly.

True to his word, there a town, a small town not long from them. They put their car on the side road as they getting near the gas station. Glenn come out first, she hold her bat tightly as she walk out, "I'm going to fill the gas, you three chek the shop for something."

"Roger that." Said Thalia as she hold Ryan and Sophia hands. The three of them walking to the shop, she hold her nail gun and getting in first, preparing to shot any zom-walkers inside there. Gladly theres no sign of them, she turn toward the kids, "Alright, this shop still have an useful item, lets find some treasure, remember the rule kids."

"Okay/we know." Said Ryan and Sophia at the same time as they began to wondering and hoping to find something useful. A soft sound of the door make her turn and find the women walk in.

"Hi." Said the woman as she smile.

Thalia try to smile and hopefully its good enough, "Hi."

"Sorry if I scare you. I'm Anne." Said the women.

"Nah, you are not scaring me. I'm Thalia." Said Thalia as she smile.

Anne smile as she pick up some food, "So theres only fourth of you, were you guys on your own?" Asked Anne.

"Yeah." Said Thalia with a sigh, "Theres something happen and those make us going on our own." Said Thalia.

While they talk, Glenn already finish fill their gas as she fill some on the bottle, she is not going to risk having the gas empty on the road. Its will turn out very fatal for them, thats for sure. As she fill in she can felt the man that team up with them walking closely to her.

"Hi." Glenn looking toward the man as she stop fill in the gas, "Just want to ask, where are you destination, we thinking about going to Birmingham." Said the man, "By the way, I'm Jordan."

Hearing the city name almost make Glenn flinch, "I'm Glenn, sorry to said this to you but, Birmingham already down. We have been from there." She can see Jordan frown before let out a huge heave breath.

"Great, another failure." Said him, "So, you?"

Doubt. She doesn't trust this man yet. Yes she have trust issue, she is being paranoid and thats what make her still alive. Yes she living in fear but its also the fear that kept her alive. And she fear that her decision to told them would danger everyone life.

"We don't have any decision. As long as we move and never stop in one place for to long, we're good." Said Glenn.

"You know, we have a place. Its call Woodbury, the place is safe, everyone living behind a wall and there guards that protect it." Said Jordan, "We would be happy if you and your sibling would join us at there. I mean, you still a young boy and you have to protect your sibling all alone. I even get a little problem with just the two of us."

So thats how they look like in stranger eyes. Glenn being a big brother that protect his three sibling alone and need some pity so someone would help them. Yeah she doesn't mind it. But this Woodbury, its sound like a trap. Theres no way a place like that in this world, exist. A safe place for stay so long its seem like a dream. And a dream never get real. Its just imagination from our heart. She also doesn't want to join any group right now, because they have to find Sophia group first. Afterall she already promise to the girl, if she following Jordan, who know if they would meet Sophia group.

"No thanks, we can handle it. We also want to visit a family and hoping that they would be alive." Said Glenn as she smile and put the bottle inside the car as the three kids come back, with Anne. Each of them bring a plastic bag and Glenn doesn't want to know what they are bring. Their short break on gas station is over and now they drove toward the small town not far away from there. The city plat name has been destroy by explosion as there a burn mark and a hole. The city is quite and theres no sign of walker. Glenn stop her car before reach the entrance, making Jordan stop and slowly drive backward.

"Why stop?" Asked Jordan.

Glenn almost roll his eyes, "We cannot risk it with coming in there using a car, it will be safe on foot." Said Glenn.

"But I don't spot any bitters." Said Jordan.

"They could have been hide somewhere, I cannot risk my only transportation leave behind if something happens." Said Glenn, she then turn toward the Thalia, "We will be going on foot. Like always, you watch our back." Thalia nods as Glenn looking toward Ryan and Sophia, "Okay, I want you to keep following me and only me okay." The two kids nods.

"You sure you want to bring the kids?" Glenn looked at Anne that looking worried at them, "Why not just let them stay here."

"I felt more save if they come with me." Said Glenn as she hold the machete tightly and taking a deep breath, Thalia prepare her nail gun and also taking a deep breath, she nod toward Glenn as she put her beg-pack, who nod back and looking at Jordan and Anne, "We decide to go to the Cloth Shop, you?"

"Pharmacy. My wife, Anne, she is pregnat." Said Jordan as Annie smile.

"Good luck. Seem like this is our end of team up." Said Glenn before turning toward Thalia and the kids, "Lets go, its time to move."

"Glenn, wait!" Before Glenn can walk, Jordan hold her hand, "You shouldn't done this you know. I mean, we together can go back to Woodbury. We could asked the people to find your family." Glenn shook her head as she release her hand.

"My answer still the same." Said Glenn beforr walk. Thalia looking back at Jordan and Anne for last time before following Glenn, with Sophia and Ryan in front of her.

"Glenn you know, we-"

"Cannot." Cut Glenn.

"Why not? They said they will help us." Said Sophia.

"I will tell you the reason okay, for now the first rule, quite and no sound." Whisper Glenn as the three others nod their head. She giving Jordan one last nod before walking inside the city. Its definitely not as big as Atlanta but its has lot of alley, and apartments. No cloth shop as they walking. Glenn running silently and push her body toward the wall. She take a peek for another blok and find some walker wondering at there. She then looking at Thalia as she shook her head.

She take another way, its better to not face them and attract the walkers. This city still a mystery, she doesn't want to die in stupid way on this city. Its not a long silent walk until she find the unbelievable place. Not long from there, its just some few blocks from there, a mall, a fucking mall that have a poster on its top with the writting of 'Alive Inside'. She doesn't want to believe it. Theres many things that can happen. Like no one still alive or theres someone still alive. Before Glenn can think longer she felt the edge of her shirt being pull and Glenn look at Sophia who point on their side. Wheres some walkers notice them. No other choice then.

Glenn take Sophia hand as she make a run for it. They doesn't have much time, the mall is their only choice. Glenn wish that she won't regret this later. They run passing some walkers, shoot and destroy their head when some of them getting close. Just some more block and they would arrive. But as they getting near, more walkers gathering around. Glenn stop and looking behind them only to see the walkers chasing them. She curse and run toward the mall, no turning back they have to grt there and fast, she hit the walkers in front of her. And soon they arrive at the mall, with hoard of walker behind them.

"OPEN UP!" Glenn bag the close door that being block many box and all. Thalia shot the walkers that going near, "OPEN UP! PLEASE HELP US!" Theres no sound and Glenn growl as she hear the kids scream and crying when the walkers getting near, "I'LL BREAK THIS FUCKING GLASS DOOR!" Glenn hold up her machete and smash it.

"HEI! OVER HERE!" Until that sound stopped her. Glenn looking toward their side, and saw another entrance theres two people, male and female wave their two hands, and holding a gun.

"GO!" Yelled Glenn as she running first, clean the route for them. Thalia now more focus to shot walkers in front of them rather then behind them. A gun shot was heared all over the place and Glenn passing the two person followed by Sophia and Reza and then Thalia before the door being shut and blockade with metal table.

"Help us!" Glenn and Thalia help them pushing the table before a loud bang heared. They catch their breath as the six of them sit on the floor.

"Thanks.." Said Glenn.

"Your welcome, bro." Said the female as the male nod his head, "Call me Cassie, he is Tyson." Glenn looking toward them. Cassie look not really older then her, she could be younger. Her hair color is pale yellow and her baby blue eyes, her skin is a little to tan, but not as tan as Thalia and Ryan.

"I'm Glenn. This is Thalia, Ryan and Sophia." Said Glenn.

"Only three of you?" Asked Tyson as he let out a sigh. The man is an average man, with some muscle, black skin and bald, he look like around 25 or 26 years old, or it could be more.

Glenn nod her head, "Only three of us. There's a couple before but we go on our way. They still in the town to the pharmacy." Theres a gasp from Anne before Tyson curse silently, "Why?"

"The pharmacy is a dead end. Many eaters has come to there and probably hide there. They won't even survive when they come in there." Said Tyson as he explain.

"Oh my god.." Whisper Thalia slowly as she hug Ryan who just stay silent as does Sophia. The sound of the walkers behind the door make them come out from their depression mood.

"I think it would be best if we getting somewhere, from here." Said Glenn as Anne nod.

"Theres also five others on the second floor. Did you bring any guns?" Asked Anne.

"Just like what you see, machete and nail-gun." Answer Glenn and Anne nod once again.

"The nail-gun cool." Said Anne which making Thalia smile.

"I made it by myself!" Said Thalia.

Anne smile to her, "You really are cleaver."

"All people on her school calls her genius." Said Ryan, "And creepy."

"Hei! I'm not creepy!" Said Thalia as she pinch her little brother nose who just wince.

The six of them then starting to walk inside the mall. Anne smile toward Glenn, "You have an interesting family, its a bad thing that you have to take care of them by your own."

There, the only one big brother protecting three little sister think again.

"I don't mind it." Said Glenn as she smile.

The get out from the food counter, walking on the main hall. It's really dark and the only light is coming from the third and second walking toward the elevator and step into the second floor. Like what Anne said, there are five people on the second floor. Four male and one girl. The one in the corner of the left has blue eyes and blond hair, next is the tanned man with dark brown eyes and black messy hair, the other man has dirty blond hair and green eyes and the last one, the girl having pale skin, blue light eyes and wavy short blond hair, she remain Glenn to Anne.

"Ann, I'm glad you okay!" Said the female as she step forward and hug Anne.

"I'm alright Jasmine." Said Anne as she hug her back.

"I see you brought a new survivor." Said the dirty blond hair man.

"Yeah, the names Glenn, Thalia, Ryan and Sophia." Said Tyson as the black messy hair man nod his head.

"Well then because you already coming here, I would tell you the rule you have to follow in here." Said the name, "No weapon use be allowed on the third floor, all the weapon have to be left beside the elevator. Can you do that?"

Glenn can felt the man focus only to her, no guns can be use and have to be put beside the elevator on third floor. She can fulfill it, beside this place seem safe enough, she looking at Thalia who looking at her, and she know what will the little girl said to her.

"Why don't we give it a try?" Said Thalia as she smile sheeply.

Glenn smile as she nod and looking at the black hair man, "Alright."

"Well then, my name is Jamar, and I would like to welcome you to HoD, Hall of Deaths."
