Season 2: Episode 19

Chapman's eyes lit up while his four captives all had wide horrified eyes at the sight of the figure in the door.

"MMMMMMMMM!" They screamed.

It was Clementine, clad in her usual fashion in a red and brown plaid pleated mid-thigh skirt; a white long sleeved blouse; a red and grey striped tie; under a grey sweater vest; grey below knee socks and black and white sneakers.

"You made a mistake, Chapman." She snarled, arms folded as she glared at the creepy man who had been stalking her.

The four captives all writhed against their bonds, screaming into their gags as they couldn't believe they were seeing Clem again after all this time. But they were also terrified, as this whole thing was a trap for Clem, with them as the bait and it seemed she had taken it. But then there was confusion, how had Clem got here so soon, found them so soon, Chapman hadn't even taken pictures of them to send to her, let alone sent them to her. Chapman however was grinning as he turned fully to face her, stepping forwards, the four girls were now left writhing and watching in fear as this creep approached their friend who had finally re-emerged. Clementine wanting to roll her eyes at the predictable nature of this creepy man, his eyes practically glues to her slender caramel toned legs, or at least what was on show between her skirt and legs.

She shook her head however and focused on what she was about to say.

"You just had to show up didn't you, you just had to try and ruin my life again." She growled at him.

Chapman shook his head as he took a step closer to Clem. "Oh please Clem, don't act that way, we both know that's not true. You know how I feel, just admit the truth about your own feelings-"

"I have, several times, you're a creep, I hate you and-"

"NO, YOU ARE MINE!" He suddenly yelled. "You and I belong together, we're meant to be, but your parents keep trying to keep us apart!"

"At my request." Clementine said coldly. "In case you didn't notice, you're way too old, it's disgusting and illegal."

Chapman waved a hand dismissively. "Just because all those people don't understand our connection doesn't mean-"

"What connection, I didn't even know you existed until you started stalking me eight years ago." Clementine cut him off angrily.

That made the four captives freeze, this wasn't the first time Clem had faced this. Worse, it had been eight years ago, Clementine had only been eight when this creep first started stalking her, she had been a mere child. This man clearly was a creep.

Chapman just looked offended by what she said.

"You're being brainwashed by them Clementine, you know you don't really feel that way, we both want-"

"I want nothing to do with you." Clementine explained to him sharply. "I was eight, you started stalking me for a whole year, I was scared, my parents were scared. We had to actually get you arrested when you tried to break in and kidnap me."

"I tried to save you!" Chapman yelled. "They were keeping us apart and-"

"They kept me safe from you!" Clementine was yelling too. "You tried to break into my home and kidnap me on my ninth birthday before the police took you away. I was happy, at last I was free."

Clementine glowered at the man while her friends stopped struggling against their bonds and moaning into their gags, eyes wide as they took in all this unknown detail about Clem's past.

"Of course it didn't last, you had to break out and cause more trouble by the time I was eleven." Clementine continued. "Scared me again and I started to hate that, I told myself I wouldn't be scared again, that's when I learned the truth and met some very important people, including Lily, we all know the effect she has on you."

"That bitch, she's the one who's really keeping you from me."

"Get it right, it's keeping me safe from you, creep." Clementine replied with a scoff. "She helped us move, after dealing with you for another two years, we finally got away, just after my thirteenth birthday, I thought I'd be free here, since I knew you didn't know where we'd gone."

That caught the girl's attention, that all fit into when Clem had first come to live in this town, when they'd first met her.

Chapman shook his head.

"Well, this has been a nice little history lesson, even if it is incorrect in several places." He remarked dryly. "But you are here now...I finally tracked you down and after this stupid game that those fools tried to play, you finally saw the light, didn't you."

Clementine shook her head. "You are delusional, I'm here to save my friends."

"These whores don't deserve you!" Chapman snapped. "They are all sluts and blondie there is such a filthy degenerate she doesn't deserve to live, I ought to deal with her and then…"

Like I said, I don't think so. You're gonna let all of them go." Clementine said, a strange edge to her tone.

Chapman glared. "You think I would just…"

Clementine shook her head. "You're a fool...did you really think I'd come here, alone."

That was when the others realized what she had been doing and what she meant. At that moment the main doors to the barn opened and Lily, clad in black pants, a white blouse and black shoes, accompanied by black suited men, all armed and aiming at Chapman, entered the barn.

"It's over, creep." Lily snapped at him.

Chapman's eyes widened, then rage consumed his features.

"No, no you won't...arg, none of these sluts will leave alive!" He roared.

He lunged for his gun and turned towards Becca, but by that point Lily and a few of the other men had opened fire and he flinched and buckled, several bullet holes bursting into place across his whole body, even his head. He then crumpled to the ground, dead.

There was a stony silence for a moment, then Lily lowered her gun, which signalled the others to do the same.

"I still say that was way too risky, Clementine...but it paid off." She said blandly.

Clementine shrugged. "Yeah, yeah, now c'mon, we got something more important to do."

With that she began to approach her wide-eyed, still captive, friends. Violet especially was distraught, face red at being exposed the way she was by Chapman, what he had called her.

Lily finished calling for police and ambulance and looked at Clem. "Don't forget our deal."

"I didn't, but you seem to be. I agreed to help you, not to join you." Clementine said. "That's it, now leave it and help me here."

Lily grunted but said nothing more about it and went to help Clem free her friends, the nightmare finally over.

End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
