Captured

What if the Bandits captured the Motel group? (TW: Rape/Non-Con, somewhat Graphic Violence and homophobic language)

Carley grunted, spitting out blood. She slowly got up and looked around the 'prison' the Bandits had fashioned.

"Where's Katjaa?" Demanded Kenny, limping forwards.

"I," Carley coughed and spat out some more blood, "I couldn't see."

"Is the blood yours or theirs?" Asked Lee, wincing.

"Theirs." Answered Carley, "They wanted to get me to take their dicks in my mouth."

"They took Lilly earlier," Said Lee, looking around, "Obviously 'trying' again."

Carley sighed and nodded, before glancing over at the corner, "How'd she take it?"

"Larry dying or turning without being bitten?" Asked Lee, looking at Larry, "I'm glad Clem managed to smuggle us a knife."

Carley frowned, just as they heard a scream.

"KATJAA!" Bellowed Kenny, "YOU SICK BASTARDS! I'LL KILL YOU!"

The door to the unit they were being kept in swung open and Clementine, with blood running down her chin, was thrown in.

"Clementine!" Lee rushed forwards, "Sweet Pea, are you alright?"

"I," Clementine coughed, "I heard them say Carley bit them."

Lee glanced at Carley, before looking back at Clementine, "Are you hurt?"

"I…" Clementine looked down, "I still hurt…down there."

Lee growled, before looking over at the other corner, "Mark."

A figure in the other corner moaned.

"Mark." Lee's voice was louder.

"Yeah?"

"You still with us?"

"Yeah."

Lee growled, "We need to get out of here."

"Yeah."

"He's not any help, Lee." Scoffed Kenny, "He was useless when Larry turned and he's useless now."

"What about her?" Carley pointed at a girl younger than Clementine.

"She ain't moved," Answered Kenny, "We think she might be dead."

Lee frowned, before straining his ears. He could hear muffled voices, before the unit door swung open, revealing a dishevelled looking woman holding a crossbow.

She and the group stared at each other, before the previously catatonic girl ran up to her.

"Mommy!" The woman crouched down and cradled the girl.

Kenny, not paying them any attention, ran out, yelling for Katjaa and Duck. Lee looked at Clementine and Carley, "Stay here, Ken and I'll deal with them."

Lee ran out after Kenny, quickly locating his axe. Smirking, Lee grabbed it and started looking around. He caught sight of one of the Bandits, Linda he thought their leader called her, and brought the axe down on her head. Quickly looking around, he spotted several bandits already dead. Hearing someone coming up behind him, he turned and raised his axe, only stopping when he saw it was the woman, "Oh, it's you."

"They're keepin' 'em over there." The woman guided Lee, creeping towards a tent.

Lee thought he could hear someone moaning, he found himself hoping it was in pain and nothing else.

Quickly ducking into the tent, Lee pulled the Bandit off the girl he was raping and brought the axe down on their head. Glancing down, Lee saw the girl had curled up into a ball, sighing, Lee stepped out of the tent and continued on, while the woman gestured for Carley and Clementine to come over.

"Ya buddy's gonna need help." Said the woman, catching up with Lee.

"That's why I'm looking for him." Responded Lee, pulling a bandit out of a tent and driving the axe blade into his eyes.

"No, the other one." Clarified the woman, "The one they cut the junk off of."

Lee paused, Mark's behaviour suddenly making a bit of sense, "Shit." They heard a noise, prompting Lee to raise his axe, only to come face to face with Lilly. A naked Lilly, "Oh, shit." Lee quickly shrugged his jacket off and held it out to her, "Here."

Lilly took the jacket with a quiet nod, "The guy that…had me took off when he heard someone creeping around."

"YOU SICK SONS OF BITCHES!"

"Well," Muttered Lee, "there's Kenny."

"And now they know we're out." Said Carley, coming up behind them, "Clem's in the tent with Dani and Lizzie."

"Those their names?" Asked Lee, glancing at her, and getting a nod.

"Lizzie said that her parents should be close by." Said Carley, before noticing Lilly staring at her, "Don't worry, the blood isn't mine. The same goes for Clementine."

Lilly blinked, "Where's Mark?"

"Apparently, he got his junk cut off." Said Lee, before carrying on to where he heard Kenny.

"-at's the matter old man?" Lee heard the head Bandit taunt, "Sad your little fag's enjoying it?"

Lee slipped through the flap and felt himself freeze at the sight of Kenny and Katjaa being restrained while the head Bandit knelt behind a sobbing and screaming Duck.

"Don't worry," Sneered the Bandit, "when I'm done, I'll cut his little cock and balls off and give you a pretty little daughter."

"This might hurt a little." Said Lee, before swinging the axe down on top of the head Bandit's head, while Carley, having found and retrieved her gun, and the woman, took out the Bandits restraining Kenny and Katjaa.

The tent was quiet, except for the sound of Duck wailing.

C

"They should be here." Lizzie quietly pointed towards a clearing, the rest of the group following after her. Lee glanced back, he asked Carley to carry Clementine, since the girl had started limping. Katjaa was carrying a silent Duck, while the woman that let them out carried her daughter and Lilly supported the near catatonic Mark.

"LIZZIE!" Yelled a woman's voice, getting a shuddery laugh from Lizzie, before she ran forward.

"Mom!" Lizzie nearly tackled the woman who'd been calling for her.

"Oh my god!" the woman wrapped her daughter in a hug, "Mitch!"

A man appeared from the bushes, quickly running over and engulfing Lizzie and the woman, "Oh, I thought the worst happened."

"It…it kinda did." Said Carley, walking forwards, as Lee looked around for Walkers, "She was being kept by the same people we were."

"W-where?" Asked Lizzie's mother, as the group shifted uncomfortably.

"A rape gang." Answered Lee, before gesturing to the woman behind him, "She managed to get us out of their…cell and we just, cut them apart."

Lizzie's mother looked them over, before looking at Lee, "Your arm's broken."

Lee's arm gave a throb of pain, "Yeah, they broke it when they took us."

Lizzie's mother looked at Mitch, "Honey, can you get the first aid kit?"

"What?" Mitch looked at her, "Tess, how're band-aids and painkillers going to help them?"

"It's a start." Muttered Tess, before looking at them, "Where'd they take you from?"

"A motel." Answered Lee, "Not far from here."

Tess looked at Mitch, "I'll grab Adam, we're going there."

C

Lee watched the treeline, Tess had placed his arm in a splint, after making sure he was able to stand guard. The woman, she'd given her name a Jolene, and Mitch had joined him on guard duty. They'd taken as many of the weapons the bandits had as they could carry.

Lee was glad Tess was a doctor, she'd given Kenny a more or less clean bill of health, same with Katjaa. Carley was given a check over, but she'd been lucky, in her own words, as the Bandits hadn't gotten past attempted blowjob stage. The bandits had done the same with Clementine, after Lee had gotten out of the cell and killed one of them when they'd tried to rape the girl. Lee supposed that the Bandits were 'busy' with Duck, Lilly and Mark. Lee felt a surge of anger run through him, before he heard Kenny step up next to him.

"I've got it working." Murmured Kenny, "Just needs some gas."

Lee sighed, "How's Duck?"

"How do you think?" Snapped Kenny, before running his hands down his face, "Sorry. He's…he's gone. It's like he's dead. Maybe that'd be preferable, he's scared to move, to make noise. Shit, I stood up and he pissed himself."

Kenny looked over at Clementine, "I heard you, went to kill that son of a bitch that tried to rape Clementine, how you killed before all this started."

Lee sighed, "Yeah." He looked at Kenny, "Look, I understand if you think I'm too dangerous to be around—"

"Lee, you're the least dangerous person we've met since all this went to shit." Scoffed Kenny, "I don't care much about what happened before, unless it's—"

Lee looked at Clementine, "Tess said that Clem's pain… 'down there' could be from that Bandit forcing her legs apart."

"She's lucky the guy looking after her is strong and terrifying enough to protect her." Said Kenny, before looking over at Lilly, "Apparently, Lilly went into a kinda catatonic state after Larry bit the dust, so she just…blocked it out."

"And Lizzie?" Asked Lee, making Mitch stiffen up.

"In denial about it, I think." Answered Kenny, "From what I heard, you pulled that bastard off her when he'd just started."

Lee nodded, looking out at the forest, "Hopefully, we can move on from this."

C

"It'd have to be just our luck." Kenny glared at the train blocking the road.

Lee glanced back at the group, Mark had gained some more life, since Tess had checked him over. Lee, Mark, Kenny, Jolene and Mitch had gone back into the forest, intent of ending the Bandit threat. Instead, they found a couple of teens and a teacher stuck in a modified bear trap. After cutting him out, with his screams attracting a ton of walkers, resulting in one of the teens tripping and ended up being devoured.

After returning with the guy, and putting the reanimated teacher down, Lee, Kenny and Mitch went down to downtown Macon and gathered all the supplies they could find, with Lee grabbing a wheelbarrow. They left as soon as they got back, with Kenny almost running two guys over. Duck spent most of their trip whimpering, while Carley and Lilly kept an eye on Ben.

"Walking isn't much of an option," Said Mitch, quietly smacking Clementine's radio in his hand, "not if we want to leave the supplies behind."

"We could try and move it." Suggested Ben, suddenly appearing out of nowhere, "The cab doesn't look like it's got much damage."

The three men looked at Ben, before deciding to check the train out. Kenny and Ben went to the cab and Lee and Mitch went to the car attached to it. Pulling the door open, Lee and Mitch were greeted by an old man squinting at them.

"Can't a guy get some decent shut eye around here?" Grumbled the man, before sitting up.

"Sorry." Apologised Lee, "Is this…your place?"

The old man muttered something that sounded vaguely vulgar under his breath, before looking at them, "Yeah. Name's Chuck, Charles if ya fancy."

C

Tess sighed, the group had opted the split, Lee, Carley, Clementine, Ben, Mark and Chuck had taken the train to Savannah, and Her, Mitch, Lizzie, Adam, Kenny, Katjaa, Duck, Lilly, Jolene and Dani were heading to the same place with their cars. Lee had apprised them on the situation regarding Clementine's parents. Kenny had wanted to go with them and find a boat, but Duck wasn't willing to leave the RV.

"Hopefully, things will turn out alright." Said Lilly, going over her gun.

"How're you holding up?" Asked Tess, looking at the woman.

"Well," Lilly shifted, "I've started my period, so there's one good thing."

Tess sighed, she didn't know what they'd do if one of them had gotten pregnant. Lilly looked towards Duck, "Do you think he'll recover?"

"Hopefully." Said Tess, as Adam and Lizzie played snap, "Seeing some of your injuries, part of me wonders how you survived."

"We didn't have a choice." Said Lilly, watching the scenery go by, "I didn't get to say goodbye."

Tess sighed again, "I know the feeling."

C

Carley smiled down at Clementine, as the girl nailed each of the bottles. She was doing well for her second lesson. Lee was up in the cab, driving the train. They'd been forced to stop for a bit, since the track had been blocked by a tanker. While they were dealing with it, they met Omid and Christa, and Lee took Clementine on her first supply/scavenger run. It almost ended badly, but they got the blowtorch they needed.

Lee and Mark managed to cut the tanker down with the blowtorch, and they managed to get on the train before a massive herd of Walkers got to them.

After their lesson, Carley took Clementine up to the cab where Clementine had a brief nap, as they started to reach Savannah.

C

"So," Lee glanced at Christa, "What's your story?"

"It's complicated." Answered Lee, "We'll go through it when we're somewhere safe."

Christa frowned, before a bell rang. The group froze, before Lee checked his watch.

"Guys," Mark looked at them, "we need to get out of the streets."

The group heard the sounds of a herd of Walkers coming closer to them, "Here." Omid found a gate and held it open for the group. After making sure everyone was still with them, Omid slammed the gate shut and everyone moved away from the fences.

Lee breathed heavily, before glancing at Carley and Clementine, "You alright?"

Carley nodded, "Let's…let's get inside."

Lee and the group managed to get the door open, after Omid mentioned that the doggie door could be unlocked by a microchip on a dogs collar, Lee dug up a dead dog and Clementine ducked through the door and opened it for them. After making sure the house was clear, the group let themselves relax.

"So," Christa looked at Lee expectantly, "you were saying."

Lee sighed, "Alright, but this is going to take a while."

C

"Kat…" Kenny pleaded, trying to get close to Katjaa, "please, put the gun down."

Katjaa tried to scurry away, holding a crying Duck against her with the barrel of a gun against his head, "N-no. I'm not letting him get hurt again."

"Katjaa," Tess slowly started approaching the woman, "calm down."

Katjaa pointed the gun at Tess, "S-stay away!"

Tess and Kenny stopped, as Lilly came up behind Katjaa and started wrestling for control of the gun. Katjaa let go of Duck, allowing Kenny to grab him and desperately try to calm him down. They heard a crack of a gunshot, before the pair of women dropped to the ground. Lilly groaned, grabbing her side and started dragging herself away from Katjaa, who aimed the pistol at the group.

"Duck," Katjaa looked at Duck, "Ducky, come here, come to mommy."

Duck whimpered and looked away from her. Katjaa gave a shuddery gasp, before she placed the barrel of her gun under her chin and pulled the trigger. The group stared at Katjaa's lifeless remains, before Duck started screaming and crying.

C

Lee sighed, running his hand down his face, before looking at Carley. Lee knew that Carley and Clementine had been lucky, if they could call it that, Clementine had been kept in the unit with them and Carley would fight dirty, often leading to the bandits giving up. Then Larry had his heart attack, and they lost the knife Clementine smuggled them when they drove it into his temple. The Bandits came for Clementine and Duck bit them, which led to them taking him instead and then they noticed Lilly stopped fighting back when they came for the others, which then led to them taking her.

"So," Christa got his attention, "they tried to rape Clementine because she snuck out to retrieve a knife for you and were stopped when you killed they guy trying to rape her."

Lee nodded, "They had us for a couple of days, I think. Like I said, we were lucky, for the most part."

"Some of you more than others." Noted Christa, looking at Mark.

"Yeah," Lee sighed, "Kenny and the others should get here…" Lee looked at his watch, "hopefully, sometime tomorrow."

"Kinda wishing Mitch fixed Clem's radio before we all split up." Joked Carley, as Clementine adjusted herself in her sleep.

"How many people are in your group?" Asked Omid, looking around them.

Lee paused, before counting off the names in his head, "Including you two? Eighteen."

Christa frowned, "That's…a big group."

"Yeah," Lee sighed, "But, we're surviving."

Christa's frown deepened, before nodding.

C

Tess rubbed her forehead, Jolene, Mitch and Lilly had gone through the abandoned cars, leaving her and Kenny with the kids. Mitch had come back, with Lilly arriving not long after, but Jolene hadn't. After a quick conversation, Kenny and Mitch went looking for her, they returned shortly after, telling the others that Jolene had been bitten and had turned. Dani didn't take it well, but one good thing, if it could be called that, that came from it was Duck slowly coming out of his shell.

"Do you think the others are finding anything good down in Savannah?" Asked Lilly, getting Tess's attention.

"Hopefully." The woman shrugged, "Things haven't gone well for us thus far."

Lilly hummed, looking at the children, "At least Duck's making progress."

"Yeah." Tess watched the boy quietly explain a comic he once had, she only wished it didn't come as the result of a member of the group's death.

C

Lee frowned as Molly led them through the sewers. They ran into Molly during an attempted supply run, with Clementine preventing either of them from killing each other. Molly had suggested they look around Crawford, a community/cult that existed in the local area.

"This is it." Whispered Molly, prompting Lee and the others to climb the ladder. They left Omid and Carley at the house, in case Kenny and the other half of the group arrived when they were gone.

The rest of the trip was different from what they had planned, given that Crawford was overrun with Walkers. Before long, they'd gotten the medicine, and some radios and had gotten into the weapon supply, when a bell had gone off and summoned a horde of Walkers.

Lee made sure Christa and Clementine were ahead of him, Clementine had managed to save Molly from a Walker by nailing it in the head while the woman had been wrestling with it. He checked behind him, freezing when he saw Chuck stop, give him a nod and started holding the door shut.

"Chuck!" Yelled Lee, as Molly passed him, making Mark and Ben stop.

"Go!" Yelled Chuck, as the door started to give, "I'll be fine!"

Lee paused, knowing that the man was lying, before he nodded, "We'll see you at the house."

Chuck gave Lee another nod, as Lee, Mark and Ben continued climbing the stairs. Lee grabbed a shot gun, taking out a couple Walkers, before Mark tripped and fell. Before they could help him, Walkers descended on him, Lee only hoped Mark didn't suffer too much.

"Ben, go in front of me." Ordered Lee, taking out another Walker. Ben nodded and climbed up the stairs, with Lee following after him. They reached the top of the stairs, where they found the source of the ringing bell. The Walker at the end of the noose growled at them, swinging back and forth.

Before Lee could react, the Walker swung far enough to grab Ben and sink his teeth into Ben's neck. Lee, with a heavy heart, grabbed Ben's legs as the boy died and pushed him off the landing, the added weight of both people making the rope snap. Lee hopped over the edge and climbed down.

"Where's Ben?" Asked Christa, getting a sigh from Lee.

"That hanging Walker bit him." Said Lee, "I did what I could to make sure he didn't turn."

Christa winced, "Clementine and I have the supplies."

Lee sighed, before nodding, "Let's get back to the house."

C

Lee found himself wanting to laugh when he saw the RV outside the house.

"Lee."

Lee turned and looked at Mitch, he was cradling his shoulder, holding his car keys out for Lee, "You're gonna need these."

Lee frowned, before taking the keys.

"I, er, got bit."

Lee sighed, bowing his head, "Are the others inside?"

Mitch nodded, "They…they already know about me."

Lee nodded, before Clementine went up to the house.

Little more than an hour later they were forced to take refuge in the vehicles, after breaking the news about Chuck, Mark and Ben, he found out about Katjaa and Jolene. After a quick conversation, that ended with Kenny going out to look for a boat, with Molly shadowing him.

"Do you think Kenny's okay?" Asked Carley, looking at Lee.

"I hope so." Answered Lee, checking the mirrors.

"Hopefully, Lilly and Tess can keep up with us when we get moving." Sighed Carley, just as they heard Christa restrain Clementine, "What's going on?"

Lee looked in the mirrors again, freezing when he spotted a couple of Walkers, "Oh, man."

Carley got up and walked down to Omid, Christa and the kids, as Clementine started crying. Lee, after locking the doors, joined them, "Her parents."

Carley froze, before looking out the window, "So, what do we do?"

"Clem?" Lee looked down at her.

"C-can we," Clementine gave a small sob, "can we leave them?"

Lee gave her a sad nod, before returning to the front of the RV, "Hopefully, we can wait out the herd."

C

Molly returned to them a couple of days later.

"I lost track of Kenny." Admitted Molly, "I couldn't find him, not alive or as a Walker."

Lilly looked at Lee, "You're in charge."

Lee sighed, "We'll leave a note, tell him where we're going, if he's alive."

Lilly frowned, but nodded, ducking into the car. Lee ran a hand down his face, before quickly scrawling a note for Kenny. After making sure the note would be found, Lee got in the RV and drove off, with Lilly and Tess following behind him.
