So a reviewer wanted to know is Shane ever slept with Lori... the answer is no. He's only wanted Victoria.

"It sets the air on fire." Jenner finished. "No pain. An end to sorrow. Grief. Regret. Everything."

Most of the men ran to the door, banging against it, trying to open it. I sat on the ground next to Sophia and Carl, my mum's hand in mine.

I heard Daryl grunt before the sound of glass smashing and guessed he threw the bottle at the door. "Open the damn door." he shouted.

I covered my face, fighting the tears that welled up. I didn't want this. As much as I knew what was outside; the pain and suferin. I couldn't stop thinking about the beautiful things. The things that made me want to keep living.

"Out of my way." Shane called before I heard more banging against the door. Though I didn't get up to look. I just sat there, my face hidden by my knees as I hugged them to my chest.

Beside me I could hear Carol and Sophia crying, sobs coming from Carl. Mum's hand holding mine shook slightly. All around me I could feel the fear.

"You should have left well enough alone. It would have been so much easier." Jenner's calm voice caused me to look up at the man. I had been grateful to him last night but now? He was a monster. Worse than the things outside.

"Easier for who?" mum asked, a tone in her voice that I had never heard before. It was the voice of a mother scared for her children.

"All of you." Jenner answered simply. "You know what's out there. A short brutal life and an agonising death." he turned to Andrea."Your, your sister... what was her name?"

"Amy."

"Amy." Jenner repeated. "You know what this does. You've seen is. Is that what you really want?"

I stood up now, standing between them. "How dare you. That's her sister." my hand came across his check, the sound echoed through the room. "You shout your mouth." I snapped, ready to hit him again, but a set of arms grabbed me and pulled me back. "You have no right!" I yelled at Jenner.

"Shane take her over there." dad pointed towards the railing that led to the shutters.

I hadn't realized it was Shane that was holding me, and later on when I thought about it, it scared me to think I had been so close to him after last night. But at that moment I was too angry and scared for other reasons. I was angry at Jenner for giving me false hope. and I was scared at the fact that what he was saying was completely true.

"Let her go." Daryl growled, standing by Shane and me. Shane let me go before moving towards my dad. "You okay?" Daryl brushed some hair behind my ear.

That's when the tears started.

"Those doors are meant to with stand rocket launchers." Jenner stated.

Daryl's jaw clenched before he stormed away from me. "Well, your head ain't!" he shouted, axe raised towards Jenner.

"Whoa. Whoa, Daryl! Daryl!" dad was in front of him, pushing him back before he could hurt Jenner. And before long he had others helping him move Daryl away. "Just back up! Back up!"

Jenner stood, looking at my dad. "You do want this. Last night you said. You knew it was just a matter of time before everybody was dead."

I looked at my dad before I felt my knees go weak. Daryl was on the ground in front of me in an instant. "Victoria?"

"What you really said that? After all your big talk?" Shane asked my dad.

Dad just turned to mum. "I had to keep hope alive didn't I?"

"There is no hope. There never was." Jenner contradicted.

"There's always hope. Maybe not you, maybe not here; but somebody, somewhere." dad snapped.

"What part of 'everything's gone' do you not understand?" Andrea asked, her voice sickingly calm.

"Listen to your friend. She gets it. This is what takes us down. This is... our extinction event." Jenner said as if that was what would get us to understand.

But Carol's voice turned whatever doubt I had and pulled me back to reality. "This isn't right! You can't just keep us here!" I didn't want to die. And I sure as hell didn't want my family and friends to die either.

"One tiny moment, a millisecond. No pain." Jenner told her as if it were easy. As if death was all that we had left.

"My daughter doesn't deserve to die like this!" Carol cried.

"Wouldn't it be kinder?" Jenner asked. "To hold you loved ones and wait for the clock to run down."

The sound of a gun cocking caught my attention as my eyes landed on Shane.

"Shane! No!" dad started for him bot Shane just pushed him away.

"No. Stay out of my way Rick." he pointed the gun at Jenner as everyone else moved to stand away from them. "Open tha door or I'm gonna blow your head off! Do you hear me!" dad leaned in and said something to Shane but I didn't hear it. I didn't want to hear anymore.

I grabbed the axe Shane had left on the ground and ran to the shutters, throwing the axe against them with all the strength I could. I didn't care if there was no way it would work. I just couldn't sit there and do nothing.

Even when the sounds of gun shots rang through the room, I never stopped hitting the door with the axe. My arms were sore from the vibrations, but I wouldn't give up.

"Victoria stop." Daryl said behind me as he tried to grab the axe.

I shook my head. "No. I can't."

His hand grasped the axe and turned me around so I was facing him. "Stop, you're going to hurt yourself."

"Daryl I'm scared." I admitted, a tear spilling out.

He nodded before taking the axe from my hands and taking over from where I had stopped. I watched as he threw the axe against the door with all his strength. I wouldn't have been surprised if the axe broke with how hard he was hitting the shutters.

Suddenly the doors opened.

Daryl turned to me, grabbing my hand before turning to the others "Come on! Come on, let's go!"

Glenn was the first to join us as everyone else followed. But I stopped in my tracks noticing that dad wasn't coming. Instead he was talking to Jenner.

"Victoria, come on. We've gotta go." Daryl nudged my arm, still holding my hand. But he didn't yell. Sure he sounded worried and anxious, but he kept his voice low and gentle.

I shook my head. "Dad?!"

Mum ran to him before pulling him along.

"Hey! We've got four minutes left! Come on!" Glenn shouted, standing by Carl.

It was then that Daryl got me moving again. But before we got far I noticed there was a commotion behind us and I stopped once more, seeing T-Dog and Jaqui talking.

"I'm not ending up like Jim and Amy." Jaqui told him. "There's no time to argue. And no point, not if you want to get out. Just get out. Get out!" she pushed him away.

Shane grabbed T-Dog pulling him to the rest of us. "Come on, let's go. Lets go!"

Daryl pulled on my arm but I wouldn't budge. Dale had moved to Jaqui, and it was then I noticed Andrea.

"Andrea, what are you doing?" I asked, moving towards her.

"I'm staying too." she said before turning away from us.

"Andrea no." Dale started for her, and I did the same. But he turned t the rest of us, and stopped me before I could go any further. "Daryl take her. All of you, just go. Go!" he ordered before we all went running; Daryl's arm around me, pulling me along.

"Andrea?" I yelled trying to go back. But Daryl's arm around me stopped me from getting away.

"Go on." he shouted at everyone.

We ran up the stairs, all of us exhausted and stressing. By the time we got to the room we had been in last night I could see the light, though everything was slightly blurred by my dizziness.

I was having a panic attack, something I had a lot of when I was young. But I hadn't had an attack in years. I stopped in my tracks, collapsing to the ground as Daryl and Shane ran to the window before hitting it with the axe.

"Vickie?" I heard Carl shout from a distance away.

I felt arms on me, and was slightly aware of my mum moving me towards a pillar so I could lean against it. "Victoria I need you to breathe, sweety. Come on, you can do this."

In the distance I heard a gun shot before I felt another pair of hands on me. "Is she alright? What's wrong?" Daryl asked.

"She's having a panic attack." mum told him.

"What can I do? What do you need?" Daryl's voice seemed more frantic then ever before.

"Look out!" Shane's voice echoed through the room.

I looked over to my dad and saw him place a grenade by the window. "Mum get Carl." I told her, still out of breath. She moved to my brother who was by Carol and Sophia.

"Oh, sh...!" my dad came running towards us.

Daryl threw his arms around me, covering my body with his as a loud explosion went off before I heard the glass break.

"Come on." Daryl helped me up, pulling an arm around my waist so he could pick me up.

Carrying me he ran to the window, before handing me to my dad. He jumped out, gesturing for dad to hand me over. Once I was back in his arms he started running for his pick up, all the while I was finding it harder and harder to breathe.

"Come on. Victoria it'll be alright. We're nearly there." I could hear him repeat as he ran.

The door to the pick up flew open before he put me inside. He slammed the door shut and jumped into the driver's side, turning to me. "Come on. I need to you breath. I don't know what to do." he looked around for anything he could use.

I was trying to calm down, but my racing heart was over bearing us my pulse thrummed in my head. Trying my hardest I finally managed to speak. "Paper bag." I pointed to the glove box where I knew there was a paper bag.

He pulled it out and handed it to me before I placed it over my mouth and started to breath in and out, in it. Slowly my breathing got under control, as the dizziness died down and my pulse slowed.

Suddenly I felt a wave of heat rush over us before Daryl was pushed against me by a force. All the while the loudest explosion went off, as the CDC burst in to flames and crumbled; sending another wave over as Daryl was pushed against me more.

Once it was over he moved so he was looking at me. His eyes held a million emotions and I couldn't stop myself. I pushed myself forward pressing my lips against his.

He was tense at first, but before I could move away he put his hand behind my head, pressing me closer to him as he kissed me back. The kiss was fierce and needy. But behind it all, I could feel something else.

Before I could explore that feeling he pulled back and looked in my eyes. "You okay?"

I nodded.

With that he turned to his seat and started the car before following the others. I knew we had a long journey ahead of us, with dangers and troubles. But the only thing I could think about was that kiss...

THE END...

There will be a second part. Actually they'll probably be a part for each season. And I know this was basically retelling the show, but trust me when I say things will change-up in the next installment :)

I hope you enjoyed, don't forget to review :):)

Love and miss you all xox
