I'm gonna skip the walker attack and the Nick and Pete scene. It's difficult for me, Okay? ;-; I'm just gonna skip to the part where Carver goes for a visit. I'm very sorry ;-;

Oh, And with the question : "will Clem and Duck be paired together?"

Well, That depends. Do y'all want them to be? Yes or No? Vote now! If so, Their relationship would most likely be like Carl and Sophia's old relationship from the comics. Just about holding hands, hugs and protecting each other. They're still like 11-13 years old, So yeah, They still can't do shit grown-ups do.

Hope you enjoy reading!

"Well hello there." The man greets the two.

"Uh...Hello." Duck tries his best to not look scared.

"How are ya?" The man asks

"Good, How are YOU?" Clementine crosses her arms, Trying to look tough.

"Well, I'm doing just fine, Thank you." The man looks at the two. "My family and I are set up a ways down the riverside, I'm surprised we haven't run into each other yet. What are your names?"

Clementine looked at the man's gun. Now she knows not to mess with him or make him mad. "I'm...Carley."

Looking at Clementine because of her sudden lie about her name. He sighs. "I'm..." He looks around, Hoping to find an appropriate name. "...Lee."

Clementine glared at him. How dare he use the name of her guardian and father-figure? He should have used his real name. Dammit, Duck.

"Carley and Lee. Those are nice names." He smiles at them. Noticing their glares, he stops. "You mind if I come it, Carley? Lee? I've been out all morning and the heat has got me cooked." He tries to get in.

"Yes, We do mind." Clementine says, While Duck is trying to block his way. But failed and the man goes in, He looks around. "This is a nice place, Is there anyone else around?"

"Just us and- and dad." Clementine said, She haven't thought about her dad for a while now.

"Yeah? What's his name?" The man looks at the both.

"Ed/Kenny." The both said at the same time, They look at each other. The man gave them a confused look. "So You have same fathers or what?"

"...Uh, She has her dad and I have my dad." Duck scratches his head.

"Ah, That makes sense." The man smiles at them. "Strong names. I like them already, Where are they?"

"They're...out."

The man shrugs. "Well, I'll cut to the chase; I'm out here looking for my people, Seven of them to be exact. Have you seen them? A couple of farm boys and an old man, Spanish guy and his daughter. Quiet girl, A bit taller than you, A big black guy, And a pretty little pregnant lady."

Luke, Nick and Pete. Carlos and Sarah, Alvin and Rebecca. They both thought. Duck shrugs, "Haven't seen them."

"You sure?" The man sighs. "Well, That's a shame." He looks around, Opens the door to the kitchen and peaks through it before going in.

Duck turns to Clementine, Before following the man. "You go check on Sarah, Then come back here." He whispers.

Clementine nods. "Uh, I just need to check on something, Duck? Why don't you keep him company?" She says.

They both go in the kitchen, The man stands near the counter while Duck sits on one of the dining chairs.

The man looks at the faucet, "Those are a lot of dishes for four people."

"Um...Clementine was supposed to wash the dishes. But she's lazy and it always ends up me washing the dishes..." Duck looks at the dishes, Noticing a knife at the side. He looks at it.

"Been here for a while or you just passing by?" The man notices Duck looking at the knife.

"Just passing by, Going north..." Duck says, While glancing at the knife.

Duck looked at the man, And suddenly trying to grab the knife, But failed since the man grabbed it first.

"Where does this go?"

Duck gulps, Nervous and scared of the man with the knife, He nervously pointed at the drawer. "O-over there..."

The man walks to the drawer and puts the knife in. Looking around in the kitchen for the last time and smiling at the boy, He exits the kitchen. "Well, I've troubled you long enough. I'll be on my way now."

Duck sighs in relief. This guy wasn't gonna cause or be trouble after all, That's when he's wrong.

A noise suddenly occurs upstairs. Which makes the man look up and bring out his gun. "What was that?"

Duck shrugs. "Probably Clementine being clumsy."

However, The man did not buy it, He rushes upstairs. Looking at the two closed doors and the other slightly opened one, As a clever and smart man he was, He chose that slightly opened door.

Going in the room and seeing Clementine sitting on a chair doing nothing, Or at least pretending since it's pretty obvious, The man looks at her. "What was that?"

"Uh.." Clementine looks around and pretends to be surprised. "..I dunno."

"You sure there's nobody else here?" The man looks around once again.

"Yeah."

"Well then..." The man bends down near the bed, Where Sarah is hiding. And picks up a photograph of Sarah and Clementine. "Who's this?"

Duck remained quiet, Letting Clementine do the talking. Clementine takes the photo. "Uh...It's my sister. But she died a week ago."

"Well, I'm sorry." The man looks at Clementine and Duck "You don't know who these people are, Do you?"

Duck raises a brow. "What do you mean?"

The man kneels on Duck's height. "Let me ask you this, When you first met 'em, How much did they trust you?"

Duck made the toughest look he can muster. "They fed us and asked us questions."

"Here's some piece of advice." The man stands up. "If they can't trust you, How can you trust them?" The man then walks away. "Well, I'll be going now."

"Wait...Why shouldn't we trust them?" Clementine asks while looking at the man.

"You have a real good day now." The man avoided the question as he exits the house.

Clementine and Duck just stood there confused while Sarah gets up from under the bed. "...Is he gone?"

"Yeah." Duck scratches his head.

They sat there on the couch, Well. Not all of them. Duck leaned on a wall, crossing his arms looking like a 'badass' while looking out the window. Expecting either the group or more 'guests.'

"We should head out." Clementine suggests while standing up.

"We shouldn't go outside!" Sarah yells.

"Sarah's right. Carlos said to stay here! What if they come back without us in the house and they'll think we kidnapped Sarah?!" Duck shouts.

"What other choice should we have? What if that guy barges in with more people?!"

"Yes we have a choice and it's to stay put!"

"But-"

"Clem, PLEASE. Don't make me go through this again. Don't make US do this again."

"Do what?" Clementine tilts her head and raises a brow.

"Do something stupid and get someone else killed." He sighs and looks down. "I don't want getting people killed. I don't want to feel guilty again.."

"What do you mean?" Clementine crosses her arms. "Nobody who died is anyone's fault! We-We all wanted to be together, and it just went bad. But we owe it to them to try to make the best of this!"

"You're right," Duck sits at a chair. "I wish I would have been the one bit. Not mom, She would have been more useful"

Clementine frowns. "Don't be like that."

Suddenly, The kitchen door opens. Revealing Luke and the others. "Clem! Duck!"

"Dad!" Sarah runs to her father and hugs him.

"I heard what happened to either of you were with Nick, Right?" Luke panted. "You know where he is?"

Duck nodded. "I was with him"

I am still deciding on Duck's character. And that's why he somewhat changes at times, But yeah, I guess you could say it's puberty.

Again, Sorry if the characters are OOC, Sorry if I kept typing the same words over again (I'm still learnin'. 'kay? ;-;) And sorry if there's anything you're offended or think it's wrong.

Want to suggest anything? Well say/type it. I need advice due me lacking skills. SKILLS I TELL YOU. I don't know what it is but I know it's there.

Anyway, Thanks for reading!
