Chapter 3

Lee look up at the balcony where Carley was standing. He saw Carley and Douglas(rc9gn) were talking.

Lee: I'm gonna talk to Carley first. She wanted to talk to me.

Randy: Okay. I'm gonna talk to the others.

Lee walks away and climbs upstairs. He walks towards Carley who was still talk to Douglas(rc9gn)

Lee: Hey you two.

Carley and Douglas(rc9gn): Hey Lee…

Lee: How are you two doing?

Douglas(rc9gn): We're fine. Carley just wants to talk to me about teaching me how to shoot a gun and…

Lee feel curious at Douglas(rc9gn)

Lee: And…

Carley: And he doesn't feel uncomfortable about it.

Lee look at Douglas(rc9gn)

Lee: Douglas, it's okay if the guns make you uncomfortable. But you need it. You're totally defenseless without shooting skills.

Douglas(rc9gn) look down as he look up to Lee

Douglas(rc9gn): Let… me… think about it.

Lee: Okay.

Carley talks to Lee first.

Carley: Talk to Lilly yet?

Lee: Yeah. She thinks supplies have been walking away.

Carley: Really?

Lee: There's some broken equipment too. I'll look into it.

Carley: Thanks for doing that.

Lee smiles at Carley.

Carley: Hey, Lee. Is it true Kenny and Howard murder Larry? Douglas(rc9gn) tell me about what happened when you and the others were trapped in the meat locker back at the Dairy.

Lee was a bit shocked when Carley know about what happened to Larry. Lee look at Douglas(rc9gn) with his disappointed expression

Lee: Jesus… Douglas(rc9gn)… why did you tell her about that?

Douglas(rc9gn): Umm… I'm sorry, Lee but Carley asked me about that when you and Randy were at Lilly's room.

Carley: Yeah but please forgive him, Lee. I was the one who asked him about what happened.

Lee look down and sigh but accept Douglas(rc9gn) apology.

Lee: Okay. I forgive you. But learn not to spill the beans about anything, Douglas(rc9gn).

Douglas(rc9gn): Okay.

Carley smiles and then whisper at Lee.

Carley: Hey Lee, can I talk to you in private for a second?

Lee: Okay

Lee and Carley move away from Douglas(rc9gn) to talk in privacy.

Carley: Hey, ever since me and Doug(twdg) were a couple, I was wanted to say something and that really makes you shocked.

Lee: What?

Carley: That I'm pregnant.

Lee wide his eyes as he was shocked, is she pregnant, for real?

Lee: For real?

Carley: Yeah, for real.

Lee: Man…

Carley: Man? That's really shocked isn't it?

Lee: Yeah… and Doug's(twdg) the father?

Carley: Yeah, he is. I know it sounds really hard but Doug(twdg) knows but we tell Lilly about this, she might get extremely upset and kick us out of this group. And please keep this secret for me and Doug(twdg) because I trusted you.

Lee: I understand, Carley. I won't.

Carley smile at Lee as she thanks him

Carley: Thanks, Lee.

Lee: You're welcome.

Carley: Hey… about… you been a convicted killer.

Lee was a bit shocked

Lee: Carley, Jesus…

Carley: And I think people should know. Not because they deserve to and not because you're a bad man, I think the opposite of those two things.

Lee still staring at Carley

Carley: People need to know because we're hanging by a thread here and I can't see Lilly talk about you without thinking it's the next thing she's gonna say. You don't have to tell everyone, but think about who you trust and take the opportunity while you have it.

Lee look down and then talk to Carley

Lee: You're probably right.

Carley: Of course I'm probably right. People might be pissed. And telling them might cause some trouble, but it will be a far cry from what'll happen if they don't hear it from you.

Lee: Yeah.

Carley: So you'll do it then?

Lee agree with Carley

Lee: I'll let people know. You're totally right.

Carley smiles

Carley: Good. I think it's for the best.

As they're finished their conversation, Carley look at Douglas(rc9gn) who's still standing at the balcony.

Carley: Try telling your past to Douglas first.

Lee: Really? You know Randy and Howard said he likes to snitch.

Carley: It doesn't matter. Just try it.

Lee: Okay.

Lee walks away from Carley and walks to Douglas(rc9gn)

Lee: Hey, Douglas

Douglas(rc9gn): Hey Lee

Lee: I need to tell you something about…

Douglas(rc9gn): About the meat locker? No. I don't want to hear about I failed to stop Kenny and Howard from killing Larry.

Lee: I was talking about my past.

Douglas(rc9gn): Oh… sorry…

Lee: It's fine.

Lee look down and then tell Douglas(rc9gn) about his past.

Lee: I was on my way to prison before this.

Douglas(rc9gn) wide his eyes as he were shocked

Douglas(rc9gn): What? Why?

Lee: I murder a guy who slept with my wife.

Douglas(rc9gn) look down as he look at Lee while crossing his arm with his neutral expression

Lee: Douglas?

Douglas(rc9gn): You're… murder someone before….

Lee: Yeah.

Douglas(rc9gn): But I don't think you're a bad guy.

Lee: Really?

Douglas(rc9gn): Of course… because you save me and Clementine from a walker back at the drugstore. I won't forget that you know.

Lee smiles at Douglas(rc9gn)

Lee: Well… I'm glad to hear it. Talk to you later.

Douglas(rc9gn): Okay.

Lee walks away from Douglas(rc9gn) and walks to Carley who saw the whole thing.

Carley: Did you tell him?

Lee: Yeah and he said I'm not a bad guy even I did telling him the truth.

Carley: Well…. at least you pass your first test.

Lee: Test?

Carley: I'm… just kidding. But I'm glad you did. Wanna talk to the group about it now?

Lee: Yeah. I will be honest this time.

Carley: Great. Talk to you later, okay.

Randy watched Lee as he walks up to upstairs to talk to Carley. Before Randy talks to his group, he hides behind the motel where nobody sees him and he took the NinjaNomicon from his jacket.

Randy: Ninja Nomicon, please, The whole group is in great danger.

Randy begged the Nomicon for his Ninja mask Back but no respond.

Randy: I can't fight the walkers without my ninja mask. Please, I need my ninja mask back.

But again no response which pissed Randy off

Randy: Seriously, if you don't give my ninja mask back, my whole group will die.

Randy attempted to open it but failed which pissed off Randy even more

Randy: Okay fine! You rather choose to keep the ninja secret identity instead of saving other people's lives! You know what, you'll regret one day!

Randy angrily putting the NinjaNomicon in his Jacket. As he turns around back to the motel, Howard was behind him all along. Which make Randy jump with shocking expression.

Randy: Gahh! Stop sneaking behind me, Howard!

Howard: I see you talk to the Nomicon, huh?

Randy: Yeah, I'm trying to talk to the Nomicon about getting my mask back but nope, it won't.

Howard: Well I guess you and the NinjaNomicon are a total shoob.

Randy: Well I need a ninja mask to protect the group but I can't because it locked up inside the Nomicon.

Howard: Well protect the group without the mask.

Randy: But how, Larry and Mark's dead, Lily are paranoid and our friendship is falling apart. I can't keep like this anymore. What happens if you, Lee, Clementine and the others were all dead.

Howard: Well if I'm dead, it's your fault.

Randy was a bit mad at Howard. But before Randy could say anything, Lee approaches them, found them behind the motel.

Lee: Randy, Howard, what are you two doing behind the motel?

Randy: Umm… we were talking about something.

Lee: What something?

Randy: Nevermind about that. So what did you and Carley talk about?

Lee: Well, she told me to confess my past to everyone.

Randy: You mean the killing the senator stuff?

Lee: Yeah.

Randy and Howard was a bit shocked

Randy: Are… you going to tell Clementine as well?

Lee: Of course.

Randy look down as he remembers the lessons from the Nomicon back at the fudge factory. "Deception is a blade that cuts both ways."

Howard: Why Lee? You should keep that secret to yourself. There's no way you…

Before Howard finished, Randy talks to Lee.

Randy: Maybe Carley's right. You should confess.

Lee: Well she is. And she also told me something else.

Howard: What?

Lee:... She told me that she's pregnant.

Randy and Howard were even more shocking than before.

Randy and Howard: SHE WHAT?!

Lee: Yeah, I said the same thing too.

Randy: And Doug's(twdg) the father?

Lee: Yeah. But let's not to tell everyone including Lilly about that.

Randy: Why?

Lee: Because if we tell Lilly about this, she might get extremely upset and kick Carley and Doug(twdg) out of this group.

Randy: Ok, I understand.

Howard: Well that was the stupidest thing they have done.

Randy rolled his eyes at Howard as Lee give Randy a broken flashlight.

Lee: Well, I have to tell everybody about my past while you help Lilly about this broken flashlight.

Randy: Ok Lee. Good luck.

Randy take a broken flashlight from Lee's hand as Lee walks away from them. Howard looks at the broken flashlight at Randy's hand.

Howard: What's with the broken flashlight for?

Randy: Well I need to tell this. Someone in our group is stealing our supplies and broke this flashlight.

Howard: Really?

Randy: Yeah and I will find out who's the traitor in this group.

Howard: Well I think it's Douglas(rc9gn).

Randy look at Howard awkwardly

Randy: Why Douglas?

Howard: Well I'm just saying. I hate Douglas(rc9gn) so much, you know.

Randy: You and I both, Howard. You and I both.

Howard: Well good luck with your investigation, Cunningham.

Before Howard walks away, Randy spoke at Howard quickly

Randy Hey are you going to help me or not?

Howard: Nope!

Howard walks away as Randy angrily sigh.

Randy: Ugh! Fine.
