I don't own The Walking Dead and Z Nation.

Sorry if you find any grammar errors. I'm still learning English because it's not my first language.

The group of the Ericson's Boarding School was having a breakfast as the familiar voice to most of them sounded in the radio.

"This is Citizen Z broadcasting on all frequencies." Came an unkown voice from the radio.

"Oh! It's Citizen Z!" Willy stated as he hopped off his seat and walked over to the table with the radio on.

"Great. I was waiting for his next transmission." Violet said as she made her way to the radio.

"Can we go and listen to his transmission Clem?" AJ asked.

"Sure we can, kiddo." Clementine replied as she hopped off her seat.

"We love his transmissions." Marlon told her.

"Yeah. He plays some good music." Louis stated, "Have you ever heard of him?"

"No.'' Clementine said with a shook of her head as they made their way to the radio.

What they heard, shocked them.

"This is an emergency broadcast. Repeat. This is an emergency broadcast. Literally life and death for the human race. Now there's a man traveling among you. He's the only human known to have survived a zombie bite. His blood has the antibodies to create a vaccine. Now it is imperative that he be transported alive to the Centers for Disease Control Lab in California. His name is Murphy. Last seen in Fort Collins, Colorado. Six foot two. Dark hair. Numerous bite marks on torso. Known to control zombies. Should be considered armed and dangerous. Keep alive at all costs. Repeat. Keep him alive at all costs. The Centers for Disease Control is offering an enormous bounty for Murphy's safe delivery to be paid in whatever form you desire, as well as being first in line for any cure developed. If you can hear this broadcast. Save humanity. Save yourself. Find Murphy." Citizen Z said before ending his transmission.

The group was spechless for a minute before Violet spoke up, "Is this some kind of sick joke?"

"Yeah. I agree." Aasim agreed.

"I don't think he would joke about something like that." Willy stated.

"Yeah. I agree. Joking about the cure in these times is just not right." Louis agreed.

"Where's Fort Collins?" AJ asked.

"It's not far from here." Marlon replied.

"Yeah. About 5 kilometres." Louis added.

"I'm going there" Clementine said, after hearing Louis words, "It they can make a cure out of his guy's cure. It's worth a try."

"So. You're going to go? All by yourself." Ruby asked.

"No. She's not." AJ said.

"Yeah." Marlon agreed, walking towards Clem.

"I'm coming too" Louis agreed, stepping forward, "You could use some extra hands if it turns out to be true."

"Whatever, make it five." Violet said, joining them.

"All right. So the five of us is going to after Murphy." Marlon said.

"Let's get ready.'' Clementine said as she and AJ made their way into the school, followed Louis, Marlon and Violet.

Several minutes later was ready to go. Clementine and AJ stood by the gate as they watched how the other members of their expedition to Fort Collins were saying their goodbye to the members of the Boarding School. Louis was talking Aasim, Violet was talking with Tenn and Marlon was talking with Brody who looked like she was going to have another panic attack.

"You know it's too dangerous Marlon!" Brody said nervously, "What will happen if these people who took Minnie and Sophia come back? Huh? What will do?"

"They won't." Marlon replied.

"How do you know that?" Brody asked.

"I'm sure that they're going to go after Murphy too." Marlon replied, "So, they won't bother us anymore."

"Fine... I believe you." Brody said.

"Keep them safe." Marlon told her as he moved to Clementine and AJ by the gate, followed by Violet and Louis. The gate opened the and the group walked through the entrace towards Fort Collins.

They took their last look at the school before disappearing in the forest.


The group from the School has just arrived a the Fort Collins. The first thing they noticed that a lot of people was there. Marlon recognized some of them because a group that took Sophie and Minnie a year ago was there. He sighed in relief because they were not going back to the school, at least for now.

"I've never seen so many people in one place." AJ stated, looking around.

"I guess they're here to find Murphy just as we." Clementine said.

"You think?" Violet asked sarcastically.

"Let's just find this Murphy guy and get the hell out of this city." Marlon exclaimed.

"Amen to that." Louis agreed.

Suddenly, they heard a music, coming from the strip club. They looked at each other and nodded. They walked into the strip-club where they saw a few people and zombies inside. Most of the people sat on the chairs. One woman stood before the scratch table and the blue skinned man stood on the scene. The zombies stood in a place as if there was no human in the room

"Sorry to interrupt your party." Violet said, causing everyone in the room to look at her and her friends from the Boarding School.

"What are kids doing in here?" the Blue Skinned Man said.

"We're looking for a person named Murphy." Marlon exclaimed.

"The monsters... they're not attacking us." AJ remarked.

"Because this guy is "The Murphy" kiddo." Violet told him as she looked up at Murphy, "Am I right?"

"I'm not this "Murphy" guy but If I was him I'd probably laugh at you." Murphy told them, "Four teenagers and a kid taking him to California?"

Before someone from the Boarding School could respond a man which looked like he was born in Mexico with his gun in ready.

"Oh, god. Another one?'' Murphy asked, annoyed.

"Is this a private show or can anybody watch?' the Mexican Guy asked as a few people in the building (including Clem and Violet) tried to pull this weapons out, "Leave your weapons right where they are. Don't make me have to shoot anybody. There's enough zombies in this world already."

"What do you want?" Murphy asked.

"Your name wouldn't happen to be Murphy, would it?" the Mexican Guy wanted to know.

"Nope." Murphy replied.

"Lot of people looking for you." The Mexican Guy remarked.

"That so?" Murphy asked.

"This man he's our prisoner." the Black Skinned woman replied.

"Well he's my prisoner now." The Mexican Guy said.

"No." Clementine said, aiming her pistol a the Mexican Guy, "He's our prisoner."

"Yeah. What she said." Marlon agreed, aiming his bow at the people in front of him.

"Uh no. Sorry. She's right. We got dibs on him." The guy with a beard said, stepping forward.

"Yeah. And we're taking him to California." The red haired woman added.

"No, you're not. He's coming with me." the Mexican Guy argued.

"No. You're wrong "Taco". He's coming with us." Violet argued.

"Where will you take me anyway?" Murphy wanted to know.

"To CDC." Louis replied as he had his chair leg in ready.

"To the highest bidder." the Mexican Guy began, "CDC in California aren't the only ones willing to pay for his blood."

"Why does everybody always talk about me like I am not standing right here?" Murphy whispered to himself, "You know there's only one problem with all of your plans for The Murphy. I ain't going anywhere with any of you." Then, he pointed at the woman behind the scratch table, "Hit it!"

The woman did as she was told to. She turned the music on and the zombies inside the building started to move towards . Murphy and the woman who turned the music on quickly fleed from the building as the other took down every zombie, one by one.

"We have to get out of here." Marlon stated.

"Yeah. I can't stand this music." Violet agreed as the group from the School ran out of the building, "Even Louis music is better than this."

"It's the first time you said something nice about my music." Louis stated as they ran into the streets.

"What do we do now?" Clementine asked.

"We promised something to our friends at the school." Marlon began, "We're going to find Murphy. Get him to California and they're going to make the vaccine and save the world."

"You're the boss here." Louis said.

"Does any of you have a clue where Murphy went?" Violet asked as a car drove past them.

"He went that way." Clementine said as the group ran after the car.

Suddenly, the car stopped and four men who had their face covered by a skeleton mask got out of it. They started to shot at the Mexican Guy and the group from strip club who apparently followed him. He quickly shot them down, one by one before running forward, probably after Murphy. The group of teens and the group from the strip club wanted to follow him but they were stopped by another group of men in the masks.

Both groups hid behind a car. Well, almost everyone because one of the men from the group from the strip club ran to the closest corner.

"10k! Go find Murphy!" the Black Skinned woman from the strip club shouted as 10k passed the corner.

"Louis! Go after him! I'll cover you!" Clementine shouted as she leaned out of the cover and started to a shot at the man who was shooting at them. Louis nodded as he ran after 10k.

"You kids were joking when you declared that you want to take Murphy to California." The red haired woman stated.

"We did not left our camp and walk 5 miles here to joke around with people." Violet told them.

"Alright. Now listen to me. This city is a war zone. It'd be better for our groups if we stick together, at least until we'll find Murphy." the Dark Skinned woman explained.

"Sounds good to me.'' Marlon said back, "But at first we have to know your names"

"Roberta Warren. The guy with the beard is Doc, the redhead is Addy, a man next to her is Mack and the man who passed the corner is 10k. Also the woman with Murphy is named Cassandra." Warren introduced her group to them.

"Why 10k?" AJ wanted to know.

"We'll explain when we'll get Murphy." Warren replied.

"I'm Marlon. The guy who went after 10k is Louis, the blond girl is Violet, the other girl is Clementine and the kid is AJ." Marlon introduced his group to them.

"Guys..." Doc said, "Introduction will have to wait."

"What do you mean... Oh shit." Clementine said as she poked her head out of the corner to see a man who was aiming a rocket launcher at them. The two groups quickly ran out of their cover at the man fired the rocket which hit the car, causing it to explode.

Louis had just reached 10k who was staring in shock at Cassandra and Murphy. Louis wondered why 10k was staring at them with shock so he sneaked up to him to see that Cassandra has bitten into someone's neck, then they both glanced over at their right side to see a man with a rocket launcher. He fired the rocket at them. Louis and 10k collapsed on the ground as Murphy and Cassandra fled from the scene.

Louis and 10k layed there for a minute before Doc and Marlon came for them. The picked them up and took them to cover where the rest of the group was.

"Where are we?" Louis asked.

"Don't worry, kid. We got you now." Doc replied.

"What?!" Louis and 10K asked at the same time.

"He said we got you now!" Marlon replied.

"I can't hear you!" Louis and 10K said at the same time.

"This is insane!" Violet stated, looking around.

"Why the hell is everybody shooting at everybody?!" Addy asked.

"Cuz Murphy's the golden goose!" Mack replied as he fired two bullets at the two men who ran past them.

"We're sitting ducks here." Clementine stated,

"She's right. We're gonna have to split up into groups and keep moving." Warren replied, turning her attention to the group.

"What?!" Louis and 10K asked.

"I think they're deaf." Doc stated.

"Doc. Marlon. You take them with you. You guys, get to the alley and cut east and advance north." Warren told Doc and Marlon who nodded, "Mack, Addy and Violet, you guys take the westside. We'll flush him out."

"Well well what about the bounty hunters?" Doc asked.

"Kill them too! On my call. We'll cover you." Warren replied, "Three, two, one."

Doc and Marlon grabbed Louis and 10K and ran out of the cover as the rest of the group covered them.

"Ahhh!" Addy cried in pain as she got hit in the arm.

"Addy! Are you hit?" Warren asked as Addy leaned against the car.

"Yeah, I'm good." Addy replied.

"We got to get you movin'!" Warren said as she and Clementine leaned out of the cover, "Ready?"

Addy, Mack and Violet nodded before running out of the cover. Warren and Clem covered them until they were gone, then the two of them and AJ ran out of the cover into the battlefield.


Addy, Mack and Violet were running through the town as they were chased by a few zombies. Suddenly, the zombies stopped to chase them and ran into the hotel that was nearby.

"Murphy?" Addy asked them.

"That's what I'm thinking." Mack replied.

"Who else can control them?" Violet said as they made their way inside the hotel. Once, they were inside they looked around before walking along the hallway. After a minute they heard a scream.

"Go." Addy said as they moved towards the scream.

Doc, Marlon, Louis and 10K were moving towards the same hotel. Doc was on the front of them, hidding behind a car as the rest was hidden behind another car a few metres away from him. He took a look around before giving the rest a signal that they can move forward. Marlon, Louis and 10k did as they were told to. They quickly made their way forward and took a cover behind another car. Soon enough, Doc joined them.

"Murphy?!" 10K and Louid asked.

"Shhh." Marlon shushed them

"Yeah, that's what I'm thinking." Doc replied, "Ready? Go." He said before running out of the cover, towards the hotel.

Addy was hidding behind the wall as one of the bounty hunters was slowly getting closer to her. The person who was getting closer to her stopped for a moment because he heard something on his left side. He quickly walked through the doors. Addy sighed in relief as she left her hidding place before a zombie attacked her. Addy fought back the undead as she tried to pull her pistol out. Finally she managed to throw the undead on the ground and she could pull out her pistol. She fired three bullets at the undead but unfortunely none of them hit the undead in the head. She once again started to fight the undead before Violet stabbed it in the head with by meat cleaver.

"Thanks." Addy said as Violet nodded.

"Let's go." Mack told them as they followed him.

Warren, Clementine and AJ were watching how the Mexican Guy was chased out of the petrol station by Cassandra. Cassandra was really confusing to Clem and AJ because she acted more like a zombie than a human. They even asked Warren about that but she told them that she'll explain later. They wanted to move forward before a sniper fired one bullet at them.

"AJ. Stay here." Clementine said as she and Warren leaned out of the cover and each of them fired one bullet at the sniper who quickly fled because she was afraid that she will exploded into pieces. After that, Warren, Clem and AJ fled from the scene as well, probably after the Mexican Guy.

Doc, Marlon, Louis and 10K were still carefully moving forward to the hotel. They stopped for a minute behind the car.

"The Zs must've followed him inside. But I think I know a back entrance." Doc told them.

"Great. It'll be safer." Marlon said back as they both turned around to Louis and 10K.

"Can you hear anything we're saying?" Doc asked them.

"What?!" 10K asked.

"I can't hear you!" Louis said.

"Jesus! This is ridiculous! What the hell are we doing here?" Doc asked as he facepalmed.

"Is that a rhetorical question?" Marlon asked as Doc nodded as the window of the car behind which they were hidding was destroyed by a bullet of the same sniper who met Clementine, Warren and AJ.

"All right, ready? I'll cover. You run." Doc asked as they nodded, "One. Two. Three. Go."

Marlon, Louis and 10K were about to run to the hotel but the sniper almost shot them. They quickly hide behind the car, one again.

"Damn. Someone's got us pinned." Doc stated.

10K picked up a piece of metal that was nearby and showed it to the sniper who fired the bullet at as Marlon poked his head out to see where the sniper was.

"Sniper." 10K stated.

"Great." Doc said back.

"Second floor. Seventh window from the right." Marlon exclaimed.

"You think you can take him out?" Doc asked as Marlon and 10K nodded. He and Louis ran out of the cover into the hotel, then they went upstairs to the second floor and started to walk along the windows. They stopped by the sixth window, "You'll stay here." He said to Louis before whispering, "Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country."

He walked into the room through the window and then into hallway. He carefully poked his head out to see a sniper fire the bullet and Marlon and 10K. He rushed into the room and was about to fire the bullet at the sniper but unfortunely his pistol did not fire.

"Damn it!" He shouted before throwing his pistol at the sniper. He charged at him and shoved him against the wall. Unfortunely the sniper was much stronger than Doc. The sniper kicked him in the stomach. Doc quickly kicked him in the stomach as well before looking around the room for a weapon. He spotted a glass bottle so he quickly picked it up, " Where are we going, man?" He asked the sniper who drew his knife.

"Come on! You want some of this?!" the Sniper asked before Doc slammed the glass bottle on his face. He collapsed on the floor and Doc got onto him, then Doc punched him in the face one time before choking the sniper who fought back and punched Doc three times in the stomach, causing Doc to fall on the ground. The sniper got onto him, punched him three times and started to choke him.

Doc would probably die if it wasn't for Louis who hit the sniper in the back with his chairleg. The sniper cried in pain before Louis hit him, once again. The sniper collapsed on the ground as Doc stood up, picked up the knife which belonged to the sniper and stabbed him in the neck.

'Thanks." Doc said as he leaned against the wall and started to breath heavily.

"You're welcome." Louis said back as he leaned against the wall as well.

"What's up, Doc?" Murphy said as he ran through the room.

"Murphy!" Doc shouted as 10K and Marlon ran into the room.

"Are you okay?" 10K asked, approaching them with Marlon.

"Murphy, he's here." Doc replied.

"He's in the building?" Marlon asked.

"He just took off." Louis told them as he and 10K helped Doc get up, then they moved to the doors and were about to follow Murphy but several zombies were in the hallway.

"Give me a break." Doc said as Marlon closed the door.

"Doc!" 10K shouted as the sniper turned into the undead. He quickly aimed his weapon at him and shot him in the head.

Warren, Clementine and AJ were walking along the hallway of the hotel, looking for Murphy as one of the bounty hunters suprised them. The three of them quickly took a cover behind the wall.

"I'd say turn back. But my men'll be coming up those stairs any second. So any way you look at it, you're in a tight spot." Bounty Hunter told them as Warren and Clementine checked how many bullets do they have left, "How many left? Cuz I'm doing great over here!"

"I'm empty." Clementine said to Warren.

"Stay here. I'll take care of him." Warren said back as she rushed forward, firing the bullets towards the bounty hunter, hitting him in the leg.

"Son of a bitch! Yep, that stung. Oh! I'm gonna have to do bad things to you before I kill you!" Bounty Hunter said as he leaned out of his cover and fired the whole magazine at the hallway. It was when Warren ran out of her cover and tried to attack Bounty Hunter who was faster than her and punched her with the of his weapon.

"Shit." Clementine cursed as she drew her knife out, "AJ. Stay here. I'll take care of him."

Clem charged out of her cover and ran towards the Bounty Hunter who hit in the head by someone. Bounty Hunter collapsed on the ground as the person who happened to be the Mexican Guy beat him to death with a bat.

"Thanks." Warren told him, standing up from the floor as AJ joined them, "We got to go up. I'm out. So is she."

The Mexican Guy pulled two pistol out and handed them to Clementine to Warren.

"Who are you anyway?" Clementine asked.

''Javier Vasquez." Vasquez replied as they started to run along the hallway.

Addy, Mack and Violet were running away from the zombies through the hallway. Mack was in the front. He ran into the room and went down the stairs. Violet and Addy wanted to follow him but there were too many Z's in the room so they continued to run along the hallway.

Warren, Clementine, AJ and Vasquez were running along the hallway. A few zombies charged at them but they killed them without any problems.

"Follow us!" Warren shouted as they ran past Doc, 10K, Marlon and Louis who joined them as they made their way to the roof, "He's there." She said as he pointed at Murphy who was standing on the edge of the roof, "Hey. It's over."

"Yep. I'm done." Murphy said as took a step forward.

"Hey, hey, hey." Warren said to him as she moved towards him.

"Don't. Don't" Murphy ordered, stopping her.

"What good is this gonna do?" Warren asked him.

"Good? What's it matter? What's the point?" Murphy asked.

"Come on, man. We don't have time for this." Warren told him.

"I do. I got all the time in the world." Murphy said back.

"Listen. I'm not your goddamn shrink. We did not come this far for you..." Warren told him.

"Oh my God. Do you even listen to yourself? Doesn't that get old? Saying that?" Murphy wanted to know.

"No." Warren replied as Murphy ran forward and jumped off the roof, "No!" She shouted as she made her way to the edge to see that Murphy into the pool full of zombies and was still alive, "Back down!"

Mack was fighting off several zombies at once in the room as Violet and Addy tried to find a way how to save him. Finally, the found the doors which were leading to the room where Mack was but it was locked by a padlock. Addy fired the bullet at it, causing the door to open. What she was Mack who was being killed by the zombies. Blood began to pour out of his mouth as he shot her one last smile before closing his eyes, for the last time. Addy shot him in the head so he wouldn't change into the undead before she and Violet run back in the streets.

After a few minutes they spotted Murphy who opened the garage and got into the van that was in it. He drove out of the garage and spotted Cassandra who was running towards him.

"C'mon! Get in!" He shouted before Addy broke the window with the back of her baseball bat and pulled him out of the car. She head-butted him, causing him to fall on the ground. She got onto him and began to punch him and Violet just stood there and watched before Cassandra came running to them and growling. She wanted to jump at Addy and attack her but she was stopped by Murphy and Vasquez who was pointing his pistol at her.

"That's enough!" Warren shouted as she grabbed Addy.

"What the hell?! What I ever do to her?!" Murphy asked in confusion.

"You okay? Where's Mack? Where's Mack?!" Warren asked Addy who started to cry.

''The undead got him." Violet replied as Warren let Addy go. The readheaded survivor stared at Murphy for several seconds before getting into the van. The others stayed outside for a moment. Marlon handed Doc a rope who use it to tied up Murphy before the two of them got into the van, followed by Cassandra, 10K, Marlon, Louis and Violet.

"Can't go west. Dust storm is kicking up all that fallout. Gotta outrun that cloud." Vasquez said.

"Yeah." Warren said with a nod as Vasquez got himself into the van.

"Let's go inside AJ." Clementine told AJ.

"But I'm sick of the road." AJ said back.

"I know, kiddo." Clementine said to him, "But we need to go with these people. I think you know why."

"Yes. We can get rid of the monsters thanks to the blue man." AJ replied.

"Yeah. Clementine smiled as they both got into the van.

"Damn." Warren whispered to herself as she got into the van and drove off towards California.

Hope it wasn't that bad. See you in another chapter.
