Y/N POV
After going the funeral the kids decided to vote whether we would stay or not. They voted us out and Violet and Louis walk us to the edge of the safezone.
Forest
AJ: Will we get another car?
Clem: Probably not. We got lucky before.
Scarlett: So, we're walking.
AJ: My shoes are gonna break.
Clem: Well, we'll have to hope they hold out.
AJ: My feet are gonna bleed again.
Y/N: Then I'll give you a piggy back ride.
Louis: It's not so bad. I mean, you've done this before. Probably pretty good at it by now. Almost like going home for you guys.
Clem: You've lived inside walls your whole life. You have no fucking idea what it's like out there.
Violet: We're here. The road's that way. Anything you wanna say before we go?
Louis: I've said plenty.
AJ: Thanks for trying to keep us.
Scarlett: Yeah...
Violet: You're welcome. I wish you could stay. I didn't want this.
Louis: Come on, let's just go.
Violet: Give us a minute, would you?
Clem: Yeah, so do I. I wish we hadn't fucked it up.
Violet: You didn't, Marlon did. Even dead, he's still ruining shit.
Louis: Jesus, Violet. Give him some fucking peace.
Violet walks up and hugs me and I hug her back.
Violet: Just stay safe. All of you.
Y/N: Bye Vi.
Violet: Bye.
Violet leaves.
Louis: Still got that gun? Just try to be more careful with it. Okay?
AJ: I will.
Louis leaves.
Clem: Let's get going. The sun'll set soon.
AJ: How do you know?
Y/N: If the sun is getting closer to the horizon.
Scarlett: What's that?
Y/N: You know when you look off in the distance and you see where the sky and ground meet each other?
AJ/Scarlett: Yeah.
Y/N: That's what the horizon is.
AJ: That's pretty cool.
Y/N: There's a lot of cool things about the world you'll learn.
Scarlett: Like what?
Y/N: The earth is round.
AJ: How?
Y/N: I'll tell you later cause it's a lot to describe.
AJ: Okay...
Y/N: But the cool thing with the horizon is that because the earth is round. The sun may not be visable for us but on the other side of the planet it's becoming morning.
AJ: That's so cool.
Y/N: Yeah maybe one day when all the walkers are dead we can go there.
Scarlett: I would love that Papi.
Carley: I wouldn't mind going to Paris and seeing the Eiffel tower.
Clem: I've always wanted to go there.
Y/N: There would be a great pace for a date.
Clem kisses my cheek.
Clem: It would.
AJ: Mom, Dad?
Clem: Hm?
Y/N: Yeah buddy?
AJ: Will we be okay? I thought we were done running from all the bad people. And the monsters.
Y/N: I don't know but I'll do everything I can to keep all of you safe.
AJ: I'll keep you safe too dad.
Scarlett: Yeah Papi.
The tree next to us is shot at.
Y/N: Hide!
Clem, me and AJ hide behind the trees while Mom and Scarlett hide behind a bid rock. Clem peeks out and looks at the figure walking through the forest, and discovers that it's Abel holding a shotgun. , He is missing an arm.
Abel: Now, come on out. I saw a couple of you on the road. How long you think you can hide?
Clem: Oh, shit.
AJ: That's the man from the train station?
Y/N: Yeah.
AJ: I thought he died.
Clem: You can survive a bite, if you cut it off fast enough.
Y/N: Me and Mom will handle this stay here.
AJ nods.
I charge at Abel and kick the shotgun out of his hands. He grabs my wrists but I headbutt him then sweep his legs which causes him to fall to the ground.
Abel: Tough little cunt, aren't ya?
Clem: Just walk away, and we'll let you go.
The barrel of a gun is pressed into the back of my head. We drop our knifes and puts up our hands. Abel grabs his shotgun and gets up. Abel me in in the stomach with the gun, and the other person kicks me in the back, knocking me to the ground, then stomps on my neck.
?: Get down on the ground.
Clem lays next to me.
AJ draws his gun and charges at them.
Abel: I wouldn't, boy. Any closer, your friend might get her head blown off.
?: Abel.
Abel: Good to see you again, squirt.
Abel hits AJ with his shotgun.
Y/N: I'll fucking kill you!
Abel grabs AJ's arm.
Abel: I seen these ones before. Fighters. You'll like them.
Lilly: We're looking for a kid, runs a community near here.
Abel: Marlon.
Clem: He's dead.
?: Well, shit.
Abel: This can still work.
?: How about it? You want to take us back to your school, help us talk to your friends? It's not like you have many other options. Come on, kids, we don't want to be out here all day.
Y/N: I don't bargain pumpkin fucker.
The woman steps on my neck.
Clem: Don't!
I look over and see Mom and Scarlett still behind the rock. I shake my head slightly telling them to stay hidden.
Abel twists AJ's arm.
Clem: Don't! Let him go! Please!
Abel: Sure, if you do like we ask. Otherwise, I'm happy to crack his head open. You ever seen old fruit explode after you throw it at something? That's just how it'll look.
The women kicks me and Clem in the face, knocking us over.
AJ: Mom, Dad!
?: Oh, my god. Clementine, Y/N it's you? I...my name is Lilly. You two probably don't remember me. It's been a while.
Y/N: I remember you, you fucking bitch!
Lilly steps on my stomach.
Lilly offers her hand to Clem and me.
Abel: What the hell?
Lilly: Not now.
Abel: The fuck is this?
Lilly: I said, not now.
I get up on my own then offer my hand to Clem and she accepts it.
Lilly: Lee isn't with you two. So he's dead, then.
Lilly: I'll never forget him leaving me on the side of the road to die. I don't blame him.
Lilly: I was clearly a threat to the group after I knocked out that girl.
Y/N: Carley.
Lilly: I've always wondered what happened to her.
Lilly: Lee should've left you two behind too. Might have lived longer if he did.
Lilly: Same thing'll happen to you two, if you repeat his mistakes. Your little boy there. You'll both die protecting him. You may be able to keep this up a while longer, but eventually he'll slow you two down. A walker you didn't spot. A bullet you couldn't dodge. A desperate cry for help that brings the herd. It happened to Lee, and it'll happen to you both.
I walk up to Lilly. Not towering over her but a few inches taller so she has to look up.
Y/N: That boy can handle himself. Believe me.
Lilly: He's got spirit, I'll give you that. But you and I know that won't be enough.
Abel: Fuck, we don't have time for all this.
Lilly: We've got history.
Abel: Great, you know them, I know them. Point is, we've got a job to do.
Lilly: We can help you raise that boy, Clementine and Y/N, but we need you both to do something for us.
Clem: What? Help you kidnap a couple more kids?
Abel: We don't need a couple. We need all of you.
Lilly: We'll take you out to the Delta to join our people. We have walls. We have working solar panels, and we grow our own food. All we need from you two is to go back to your friends and convince them to come peacefully. No one will be harmed.
Clem: I'm not Marlon.
Abel twists AJ's arm again.
Abel: Here's what I'll do. I'll take the little squirt here right now.
AJ: Dad!
Y/N: You'll get your fucking hands off him right now!
Clem and I notice Violet and Louis sneaking up.
Abel: Watch it boy.
Lilly: Be smart about this, Y/N. It's an us-or-them kind of world. If you want to save your little one, you won't pick them.
Y/N: Run!
