"Connor take you sister and run to your cell! Do not come out until me or your dad come and get you!" I yelled.

they nodded and he grabbed Elaine's hand, running upstairs. Daryl and Rick had already run outside with the others.i quickly ran outside and saw the herd.i froze. This herd was double the size of the one at the farm. I watched as daryl and everyone was trying to shoot them down, but there was too many. Rick looked back and saw me,

"kayla!"

"dad!" I yelled.

I heard moans from behind me and saw a huge group of more walkers walking towards me. I looked back terrified. I froze, I couldn't move. I was snapped out of my trance when Rick had grabbed my arm shooting down as many as he could,

"we have to retreat!"

I nodded and pulled out my gun and quickly ran back Inside running up to the cell. I grabbed everything we had in our bags and ran to the twins. They were sitting in the corner shaking.

"Ok I need you guys to be brave ok?" I asked.

they both nodded. I smiled,"alright grab your bags. We have to go"

they quickly swung their bags on their backs and grabbed onto my hands. I led them back outside. The whole scene was out of a horror movie. There was so much gunfire and smoke, along with the thousands of undead growling. I heard elaina scream and I quickly looked over and saw a walker walking towards us. I let go of Connors hand and shot it down, quickly grabbing his hand again. My eyes scanned the whole yard in panic. Everyone was retreating to cars, but where was daryl? My worries subsided when I heard the beautiful sound of his bike. I scooped elaina up and and dragged Connor toward the sound.

"Daryl!" I screamed hoping he heard me.

"kayla!" He yelled over his bike.

He finally saw us and drove to us, "come on hurry up!"

i sat Elaina down and then helped Connor on behind her. Then I realized there was no more room for me and walkers were starting to close in. I took a deep breath and looked at my kids. I knew I wasn't gonna make it. They would have daryl so it would be ok. For them to have any chance,i would have to lead the walkers away. I looked at them and felt tears in my eyes. I quickly handed Connor my bag and kissed them each on their heads hard. I then looked to daryl,

"kayla what the hell ya doing? Get on!" He yelled over the gunfire.

i felt a tear escape my eyes and I grabbed his face and forcefully kissed him. I pulled away quickly and whispered,

"I love you. Take care of them"

before he could do anything I ran hearing him scream,"kayla! No!"

"Daryl go!" I yelled back.

"mommy!" Elaina screamed.

i run into a herd of walkers. Atleast sacrificing myself would save my family. I pushed past walkers and screamed,

"come on ya son of bitches!"

they turned to me and started off towards me. I heard the sound of his bike drive away. I smiled, they were safe and getting out of here. I ran as fast as I could through the woods with walkers behind me. I gained some distance on em and found a tree, climbing up it. I watched as the herd chasing me passed the tree. About an hour later there was dead silence. No noise at all and it was very disturbing. I lie on the branch of the tree and started to cry. I was alone and I'd probably never see my family again.
