I couldn't make it 2500+ words but at least I made it 1000+.

"We can carry her." Duck suggests. "And by I mean 'We' I mean either of you two."

"I-I can't...At least not right now, Carver messed me up pretty good back there..." Luke groans, Seeing that the two of them cannot carry a 15-year-old girl, They both look at Nick.

"What?" Nick gives them a confused look, After realizing it. He glares at them. "Aw shit, I ain't carryin' a teenager! I can't even carry a child for fuck's sake!"

"Come on, Nick! Put some muscle into it!"

Nick sighs and looks at the girl. "Fine." He mutters as he tries to get near her, But she freaks out and makes Nick back away.

"She freaks out once you get near her."

The trio sighs. "What should we do now?"

"Talk her out of it maybe?" Duck kneels. "Hey, Sarah." He says in a calm tone.

"Hi."

"Oh, Have you not heard? It comes to my understanding that everyone has heard."

Sarah wipes her tears. "Heard what?"

"SARAH DON'T!" Luke screams.

"A-well-a, everybody's heard about the bird

Bird, bird, bird, b-bird's the word

A-well-a, bird, bird, bird, the bird is the word

A-well-a, bird, bird, bird, well, the bird is the word!"

Duck stands up quickly and begins dancing, Trying to entertain the sad and scared teenager.

Sarah couldn't help but chuckle. "My mom used to love that song...But my dad is annoyed with it..." Sarah stands up shyly. "U-um...let's go find Clem and the o-others..." She gives them a weak smile.

Duck looks at both Luke and Nick with a grin. "And you both thought that the song was annoying."

"It's annoying as hell." Luke crosses his arms.

"I agree." Nick nods.

"Oh, By the way. Haven't you heard? I thought everyone has already heard."

"Heard what?" Nick raises a brow.

"NICK DON'T!"

As Duck begins to dance and sing around, Luke sighs while Nick bangs his head on the wall.

After Duck singing the song and dancing like an idiot, The four continued on their journey to the Parker's Run. Sarah moves to Duck's side. "Uhm...Thanks for cheering me up back there..." Sarah says shyly.

Duck scratches his head. "It's nothing, I just...love cheering people up, y'know?"

"My dad used to say that The saddest people try their hardest to make people happy because they know how it feels to be absolutely worthless, And they don't want anyone else to feel like that..." Sarah looks at him. "Does that mean...you're sad and you feel worthless?"

"No, But I kinda feel worthless...Considering that almost half of the fandom thinks I'm annoying..." Duck looks down. "Good thing this author decided to write 3 stories about me in the lead role... And pairing me with Clementine in this one, Just...wow." He realizes something and looks at Nick and Luke. "Oh right! By the way, The author is planning to pair you two."

"WHAT?!" The two men screeched with shocked faces. "HEY! AUTHOR! WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?!' Nick yells.

A voice can be heard from nowhere. "Hey, Don't blame me. The readers want some Nuke so there's that."

"YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET AWAY WITH THIS"

"Too bad, I already did." The voice then fades out.

"Ugh, I hate this!" Nick yells out while walking in circles. "Goddammit! What did we ever do to that damn author? Pairin' us and all that!"

"C'mon, It's not that bad." Luke sighs. "At least the author ain't pairin' me with Clementine. Also, You should be glad that the author avoided your crappy excuse of a death."

"But still man..." Nick lets out a frustrated groan.

In the meantime.

"How'd it go, Clem?" Rebecca asks.

"Kenny's being a jerk."

Rebecca looks at the bearded man. She frowns, Who knows what that man's been through? She then turns back to Clementine. "Well, You can't blame him, You can't just expect him to bounce back."

Clementine looks at Kenny and looks down. "I wish Duck was here already with the others."

"I sure hope they made it." Bonnie nods.

Jane comes to them. "We should look for them." She suggested.

"Wait, We're not splitting up. Especially at this time." Mike disagrees.

"We don't have much choice." Jane looks at Clementine. "Hey kid, You can come with me."

Clementine nods and looks at Kenny one more time before going through the woods. She's really worried about Kenny, What if Duck died? Maybe it will drive him to insanity considering that Duck is the only hope to pull his father back to reality,

Meanwhile.

"Are we there yet?"

"No, Duck." Luke sighs. "You've been asking that for a lot of times already."

"But I want to know if the others made it..."

"Me too, Kid. Me too."

Suddenly, They hear footsteps. "Oh shit, Hide!" Luke commands which the other three obeys and hides behind bushes.

"Come out where I can see you." A woman's voice orders, It sounds very familiar somehow.

As they come out, Their eyes widens. It's Jane and Clementine!

Duck smiles and runs to his best friend, Wrapping his arms around her and squeezes her tightly. As if he has no intention of letting the girl go. "You're here!" he says cheerfully.

Clementine returns the hug and lets go, Duck does the same. "Yeah,"

"Where are the others?" Luke asks.

"They're on the meeting spot." Jane informs. "We were looking for you, Everyone else made it."

"Well...except Sarita.."

"Oh..." Duck looks down. "By the way, Have you not heard?"

"That the Bird is the word?" Clementine rolls her eyes. "I already know that."

"Wait, It's actually a thing?" Nick gave them a confused look.

"I've heard that the bird is the word."

"Me too."

Everyone except Nick nodded. He then turns to Luke, "You've heard about it?"

"Dude, It was popular when we were like in 5th grade. How can you not know the word?"

"I didn't care for shit back then, man."

"It's your fault then."

"B-b-b-bird bird bird, b-bird's the word.B-b-b-bird bird bird, b-bird's the -a don't you know, about the everybody knows, that the bird is the word." Duck calmly sings.

"Goddammit," Nick sighs and continues on walking. "Let's fuckin' go already, I don't give a fuck about the word."

"The bird is the word"

"SHUT UP"

Oh, Have you heard? IT'S MY BIRTHDAY TOMORROW aha...I don't really care, And I don't think you will either so...

Reference time!
