Ish is about to get real. I hope you are following along and waiting on bated breath. Please like and review I could really use it! Thanks again for reading!
Rick, Michonne, Carl, and Deanna had made it to Jessie's house, right next door to Daryl and Carol's house. Rick paced around frantically as they all waited for Daryl to show up with Whitney, Eve and Judy. He had wanted to do it but Daryl insisted and they needed Rick there. They had successfully barricaded themselves in Jessie's house, but they didn't know how much longer they had; and Deanna had been bitten. She was lying on the sofa as Michonne tried to tend to her but they all knew what was going to happen. Carl stopped Rick and said, "Dad, you have to calm down, Daryl will bring them here, it's going to be ok." Rick seethed to himself, why was this always happening? Why was Eve always being taken away from him? And now Judy too? On top of his other child that Eve was carrying. He could feel himself losing his grip and Carl stopped him again, "Dad you have to calm down!" Jessie was over in a corner with her two kids, watching in horror. Her youngest, Sam was huddled into her. Rick looked at them and then looked at Michonne and Carl, and Deanna who was slowly slipping away. He nodded to Carl and said, "I'll give him 5 minutes, then I'm going to get them myself." Carl nodded and they heard the front door getting knocked over. They immediately went into action and took off upstairs, Rick helping Michonne with Deanna. They were running out of options and Rick was about to lose his mind. They flew into a room and slammed the door shut and barricaded it. Carl looked at his dad, realizing what was happening, "Dad, we can't stay here." Rick nodded, Carl was right. They couldn't stay there or they would die, the walkers were going to swarm the house in no time and they would be trapped. Rick went into action, "Michonne, we need to get downstairs and kill those walkers, cut them open and do what we have to do to get us out of here." Michonne stood up as Deanna slumped down. Jessie looked horrified, "What?"
"We have to smell like them to get past them." Rick said seriously, "It's the only way." Jessie grabbed her two kids and Rick looked to Carl, "I will call for you to come down, listen for me." Carl nodded as Deanna said, "Leave me Rick." Rick looked at her and pushed his sweaty curls out of his eyes and bent down to get on her level. Deanna looked at him, "It's over. Just leave me. Get everyone else out." Rick nodded and grabbed her hand as they both silently thanked each other. Michonne looked at Deanna and her at Michonne. Deanna smiled a weak smile, "Go save the others, do what you do. Now go." Rick went, Michonne nodded and squeezed Deanna's hand before she went. Rick and Michonne made it down the stair way, and were met with at least a dozen walkers. Rick yelled and started killing as many of them as possible. Michonne sliced as many as possible too until they had just enough time to start cutting them. Rick yelled, "Carl now!" Carl came down with Jessie and the others and Rick started handing them entrails and body parts of the walkers. "Put as much as you can all over you, quickly!" They all started smearing guts and blood all over themselves as quickly as possible. Rick continued and said, "Hurry we have to go now!" They all picked up the pace and Rick said, "We're going now, do not say a word, just follow me and hold onto each other." They all nodded and Sam said, "Mom…"
"Sam just follow me. It's going to be ok." Jessie said to her son. He held firm to her hand as Rick opened the door of the house slowly. He stepped out onto the porch, with the other following behind. The walkers were all around them, there were tons of them. Rick took a deep breath and tried to focus on the task at hand; his mind was racing and all he could think about was Eve and Judy. He had to get it together and find them and the only way he was going to do that was to get through this. The sun was starting to go down and it was about to get dark. They had to get through the herd and find where the others were, or find shelter. Rick looked all around trying to look for anyone, but especially looking for Eve. They started making their way through the herd and Rick could see through the darkness that others must be gathered in the infirmary, they were trying to get his attention. Rick was hopeful and they were almost there, when he heard screams. He turned and saw a walker tearing into Sam as Jessie held onto him. Rick was stuck in his spot, and Michonne and Carl didn't know what to do either. Jessie screamed and tried to fight the walker off, but the walker then went after Jessie next, ripping her throat. Her older son, screamed and the walkers started coming towards them. Rick's eyes widened in terror as Jessie's son brought a gun up and pointed it at Rick, "This is all your fault!" Rick braced himself for a blow when he heard the gun go off and he wasn't hit. Michonne's sword went directly through the boy and he fell to the floor, walkers over taking him. Rick heard a small voice, a voice that he knew all too well, "Rick…" Rick turned and gasped and he saw the horror that just happened. It was Eve, she was partially dressed, and covered in blood. Most of the blood was dried, but she had a fresh wound, that was gushing blood, in her abdomen. She looked down at her wound and back to Rick and choked on blood that came out of her mouth and fell down her chin. The bullet that was meant for him had hit her. Rick gasped in horror and went to her as she hit the ground. "No Eve! No, you stay awake!" Rick pleaded with tears falling out of his eyes and onto her as he picked her up in his arms. Carl and Michonne followed him as he made his way to the others in the infirmary, killing walkers in their wake. Eve was pale as a ghost and her eyes were rolling back in her head. He brought her to his face and said, "Hold on, Eve, please hold on!" They burst through the front door and the others quickly barricaded it behind them. Rick laid Eve down on a gurney and Denise, who looked rather shaken up and wounded herself looked at what was in front of her. She saw Rick's face and immediately went to work. Rick was crying and holding Eve's face and hands trying to get her to come to. Denise said shakily but forcibly, "Rick, I need you to back up I have to work fast if she is going to live!" Rick shook his head and cried as he felt hands go around his shoulders and pull him back. He felt like the whole world was ending, again. This was real. Eve was fatally wounded. He couldn't breathe and he couldn't speak. He soon realized it was Daryl pulling him back. He looked at his friend and saw Whitney standing beside him with Judy in her arms. Rick started to sob and took Judy in his arms. Judy started to cry and Rick held her closer. Carl's arms went around his dad and he was sobbing too. Rick pulled his children into him. Whitney grabbed onto Daryl and sobbed into his chest. Daryl wiped his own eyes. Morgan was in the corner, wounded as well with tears dripping down his face and Carol stared on silently as her own tears gathered. Michonne slammed her hand against the wall of the room in anger and broke down, falling to the floor. Daryl knew they couldn't stay like this for long, the rest of the walkers were going to get in eventually. He looked around and grabbed his crossbow, making Whitney look confused, "I'm going to kill those bastards." Rick heard him kissed Judy and Carl, grabbed an axe that was leaning against the wall, probably from someone else, and started heading to the door. Daryl quickly followed behind, as Michonne grabbed her katana and followed too. Morgan did the same, with Carol behind him. Whitney grabbed her gun and followed as well. One by one the entire group of people went out into the walker infested Alexandria.
