A/N: Okay this is now the 5th most reviewed story on the site! (I pick up weird facts like this, but it makes me proud) and again another massive thank you to everyone whose reviewed and stood by this story!

apathy- I knew Luke was going to die when he started talking about his birthday and all, and when I saw him on the cracked Ice I knew he was a dead man. I went to go help him and in the end he redeemed himself and got an heroic send off. However I didn't feel anything at his death, I think episodes 3 and 4 did too much damage to his character, although episode 5 did a fantastic job of making me like him again. (If only the guy who wrote episode 5, wrote episodes 3 and 4...)

Anyway I agree with you on shooting Kenny, however I couldn't bring myself to forgive Jane and although the alone ending seemed suicidal, it also tells us that Clem and the baby survived for 9 days alone. Henceforth I faith in Clem to raise the baby alone and I wanted the Jane/Kenny show to end. So that if we do meet new characters in season 3, they are given a chance to shine.

Eggomypeggo- We share the same mindset. Everyone seemingly hates the alone ending, but I loved it. Because if Jane and Kenny are detriment, if season 3 focuses on Clementine again, there's no doubt they will die within the first five minutes to tie up loose ends. Also I didn't want to drag Kenny through any more suffering, as I found his death in the park a fitting end for him (especially with his last words to Clem)

Lockdown- me too, but I'm glad there are others who went with the alone decision. and I'm glad you're looking forward to the rebellion!

obsessed naruhina fangirl- I'm glad the episode 5's ending has caused so much debate and differing opinions (as it shows how good of an episode it was) and I like the balanced argument you gave in your review and it made me think more from Jane's perspective. Don't get me wrong, I was fully with Jane when Kenny lost his mind, I was like (You can't blame her for the baby's death. It was going to die anyway in the weather) and then Jane revealed that the baby was alive. I just couldn't forgive her.

As you pointed out there are pros and cons of each ending, Wellington seems like a safe haven, but you never know (and you'll be separated from Kenny if you get into the place) so being alone (too me) seemed like the best option. I'm all for groups sticking together, but the group cracked and I only fully trusted Clementine to look after the baby and survive on her own. Anyway your point on Jane being a psychopath and Kenny being a sociopath were spot on.

Guest- Thank you for your opinion, your reaction upon learning that Jane had kept the baby alive the whole time, kinda matched my own. And I left Jane, (so I don't think she'll be an issue in season 3) I'm still angry at Mike and Bonnie though. I don't know if I'd kill them however, but that piece of shit Arvo, I'd shoot without a moment's hesitation.

AquaDestinysEmbrace- I agree with your points, as I thought the season was building up to the Kenny/Luke choice, not the Kenny/Jane choice and that final decision was hard to make. But I had to shoot Kenny and your story is still great! I can't wait to see how you handle episode 5.

Maximo- Although I disagree with you about Jane being a role model (as logical as she is) it would be interesting to see how this ending would affect Clem.

and finally rebloxic and legionary prime thanks for your reviews!

And now... the rebellion finally begins...

"... You see Tavia, I just can't..."

William Carver's sentence died in his throat when he saw his lover Rebecca, standing pale faced in the doorway. The door itself was slowly creaking open to reveal her rigid form.

"Ah, Rebecca baby, I see you want me to come to bed. I'll be there in a moment. Now as I was saying..." he spoke on to Tavia, who was in his office, leaning over his desk.

"...we can't get them to work on that planned expansion tomorrow, because the left side of trench is still not deep enough. Which is why..."

"Bill" Rebecca interrupted in a cold tone, as she continued to stand there, as she did Tavia's head whipped around, as she glared openly at Rebecca.

"Have you got business here?" she snapped at Rebecca, who merely took a step forward, it was then that Tavia noticed the flecks of blood, on her bright blue shirt.

"yes" Rebecca replied simply, drawing out the bloodied hatchet from behind her back, as Carver's eyes widened, and Tavia reached for her rifle.

"What are you doing Rebecca!?" Carver snapped angrily at her.

"Ending this" Rebecca replied as she charged forwards...

"MOVE!" The badly shaven man bellowed.

It was madness, Clementine sped out of the pen, as fast as her legs could possibly carry her. Yet she still saw some of the others sprinting ahead of her, she cursed her short legs, as the stomping of the pen dwellers was sure to draw some attention to their group, but she followed the others, feeling as if she was going to fall behind... they were all getting ahead of her.

She wanted to scream "WAIT!" But she knew they'd hit the armoury door sooner rather than later. In fact she could see the red door the armoury right now. Her gut lifted...

"HEY!"

And fell again, as she sensed the form of several of Carver's guards amass the shelves above them, they didn't ask the pen dwellers to stop running. No doubt they knew exactly what was happening, so did the guards on their side. As the badly shaven man and two other guards dropped to their knees and roared "KEEP GOING!" as they opened fired to the figures above them.

The gunshots only propelled Clementine to sprint towards the door even faster, here on the lower ground (without guns) they were sitting ducks. But the armoury was their best bet of survival, she could see the others piling into the armoury now...

WHOOSH

A bullet missed her shoulder by millimetres, yet behind her, a scream of pain met her ears, as she felt like her gut had been dunked in ice, as warm droplets of blood (from one of her friends no doubt) landed on her back and shoulders. She didn't turn around to see who had been shot, but Wyatt's bellow of "EDDIE!" Confirmed it anyhow. She couldn't go back to help him now. She was almost at the door.

She filed into the packed armoury, to see that everyone was already piling guns and feeding empty magazines with tons of small bullets. She looked behind her to see Wyatt carry in a pale Eddie. The bloodstain on his shoulder was expanding fast and his eyes were losing their focus...

"Shit! Eddie's been shot!" Bonnie screamed to the group.

"The meds are on the other side of damn store! Were trapped in here!" Mike bellowed in panic, (he wasn't usually the one to panic, but he found he was unable to jam bullets into the empty magazine for the rifle he was holding, as his hands shook so bad).

"Then we'll get there!" Kenny shouted, Clementine looked up to see him, carrying two heavy machine guns in both of his hands, with two bullet belts laid across his chest. A crazed look in his eyes as he prepared himself to shoot something. Yet the sight of Kenny, was imposing enough to make Clementine whistle in an impressed manner, a weak Eddie's face lightened up at seeing Kenny like this.

"Wow dude... that's fucking badass" he muttered, before he had a violent coughing fit, Wyatt held his shoulders, as blood poured from between his teeth.

"We gotta get those meds soon, or Eddie's gonna bleed out!" Bonnie screamed.

Just as she finished screaming this, a distinctive BOOM from outside, that made the roof shake and damage everyone's ears. The shaking was so severe that some (Sarita, Russell, Shel and Stephanie) fell to the floor, as the lights flickered on overhead.

The door burst open once again, bringing with it about 6 guards, blackened and smoking, as the scent of burnt flesh and clothes made Clementine's eyes water.

"THEY'VE GOT EXPLOSIVES ON THEM!" One of the guards roared, over the increasing noises of the grumbles of explosions and pitter patter of gunfire.

"There gonna blow this whole place up! We gotta spread out, grab the meds. Hell we could all use them at some point!" Jane shouted, as the door behind them was almost blown off it's hinges, as Clementine heard bits of rubble (and other things) smash into the armoury door.

"Okay... okay..." Kenny approached the door, trying to block out the sound of his own heart beating rapidly in his ears. "Me, Mike, Bonnie, Sarita and Wyatt will lay down a suppressing fire. Giving some of you guys to get a chance to get outta here and get the damn meds!"

No one objected to his instruction (seeing as they had no other plans) Stephanie stood tall as the others crowded around the door "I know where the meds are. I'll go there"

Kenny nodded and uttered "Good luck" to her, as she prepared her rifle and pocketed a small (but sharp) hunting knife in her belt. She'd have a feeling she need it, if the enemy got to close for comfort.

"I'm coming with you" Shel said instantly. No one objected to this either, as Kenny looked around "Anyone else?"

"Me and Jane will go, we both just agreed" Luke spoke up, as Kenny gave him a more curt nod.

"I'm going too"

Clementine was aware of her small voice cutting through the sounds of the out of control rebellion. Kenny stared down at her disbelief as Sarita approached her, with her lower lip trembling.

"Clementine... it's too dangerous" she whimpered, but another violent BANG from outside stopped her, as she covered her head with her arms. But Seeing as the door wasn't going to fly off it's hinges and hit her, She returned to her normal posture, still fearful however of the dangers present.

"It's just as dangerous here, besides I'm little, they'll have more trouble hitting me" She reasoned, Sarita couldn't find any way to disagree with her, Kenny looked down at her "Stay Safe Clem" it wasn't a warning. It was a command and one Clementine was going to obey.

"Sure" she responded as she readied herself by the door. As she heard the badly shaven man mutter "I'll go with her and make sure, she stays safe" and another guard (the same woman who survived the ordeal at the trenches with him and Russell, also volunteered to go with them).

They were ready, Clem stood between the badly shaven man and Shel. Stephanie (despite her state after her abortion) looked ready to run like she had never run before. As her hands were twitchy as she had to wait by the closed door. Ready to lead the way to where the meds were stored.

Behind her, Luke and Jane shielded Clementine, with the other woman bringing up the rear of the group .

"Okay... in 3..." Kenny began to countdown.

The whole room tensed.

"2..."

Clementine took a deep breath

"1..."

No one made a sound.

"NOW!" Kenny exploded, as he slammed open the door, as more horrible stenches and a torrent of noise overcame little Clementine. Kenny was firing rapidly above him, Bonnie was trying to aim more carefully, whereas Mike seemed to have shaky aim. Sarita was nervously shooting above her, with her small pistol. As Wyatt fired like a madman. Determined to save his bleeding out friend, as Clementine saw Stephanie run into the madness, Shel was moving next to her, as Clementine felt her legs move and she leaped into the fray.

It was madness, corpses of guards already lay bullet strewn on the tiled floor and the bodies of a few guards lay slumped in odd angles, up on the shelves. Clementine ran forward using her hands to cover her head, wary of any stray bullets, as she blindly followed Stephanie's mane of black hair, praying for the best. Praying for the best...

"GET DOWN!" Someone suddenly roared in her ear, as she felt herself violently get shoved down the ground. A maelstrom of bullets rang close to her, as she heard someone inhale sharply and grunt in pain. Before a body slumped next to her's... she was covered in the spray from whoever's crimson blood that once was. Aware of the threat, she tried to rise from the slippery ground, but her legs slipped and her arms ached. She had used them to break her violent fall to the floor.

Before she could panic, a pair of arms wrapped around her armpits and hoisted her back onto her feet. She looked up to see Luke was her saviour, with Jane slightly to his left. Clementine automatically looked back to see the corpse of the badly shaven man. Laid down on his face, as a pool of blood grew from around his body.

"He... he saved me" Clementine found herself saying, as they ran on, after Shel and Stephanie who were ahead of them.

"He pushed you outta the way. That man saved your life Clem" Luke informed her, as they rounded a corner and the sounds of the gunfire subsided slightly.

"I... I didn't even know his name" she admitted guiltily.

"Maybe that's for the best" Jane said.

But too Clementine, the weight of the nameless man's death hit her hard. He was the first causality of this rebellion and he had given his life to save her's.

And what was worse, is that seeing the chaos around her. She knew he wasn't going to be the last causality of the night.
