The World Around Us

Strangers to Friends to Lovers to Memories

Chapter 2

We had some good news and bad news, the good news was you had made it to Macon and stopped near a liquor store.

There’s definitely gotta be some food in there.

The bad news was we were out of gas. So it didn’t look like we were going anywhere anytime soon.

Well this is as far as we’re going.

Then it’s far enough.

We all step out the car. I pick up Clem and hold her in my arms. Just to be safe.

Look!

We all turn to see what Ducks looking at, it looks like a guy, but something’s seems kinda off.

Hey there! You friendly ? Trucks run out of gas

Uh Kenny?

Before I could say anything else, the guy turns around showing his face.

He was 100 percent dead. And Kenny not only got that guys attention but the whole fucking herd of them we hadn’t seen until now.

FUCK!

WERE TRAPPED!

AHHHH!

We all turn to see who screamed. It was Duck and a walker was right on top of him, trying to bite him.

Before anyone of us could react, someone had shot the walker right through the skull killing it instantly.

Two new people appeared a women and a guy.

RUN!!

They were covering us. Now was our chance to run.

I held onto Clem as tightly as possible, Lee grabbed my hand. Kenny grabs his family and we all book it, heading straight for the liquor store. The new guy locking the store so no one could get in or out.

I sigh, squeezing Clem.

Are you okay sweetie?

I..I think so.

Once I catch my breath I look around. We got into the store safely, but with a whole new group of people as well.

We can’t taking risks like this!

And we can’t keep letting people die either.

When I say that door stays shut no matter what. I fucking mean it ! We don’t know who these people are they could be dangerous!

Worse they could’ve lead them right to us!

Where the hell is your humanity ! They would have died out there!

Then we let um!

We have kids with us.

Lee now speaks up.

I see one little girl.

I hold Clem closer to me. Not liking this guy one little bit. Clem pokes me.

Yes Clem.

I..I have to pee.

I put her down. And scan the room finding a restroom.

There’s a restroom there. Hurry up.

Clem nods and walks over. I turn back to the conversation

They’ve got kids lily.

Those things outside don’t care!

Maybe you should go join um then ! You’ll have something in common!

Kenny starts to get agitated

Goddamit Lily! You have to control these people!

Carly and glen just ran out there!

I don’t give a flying fuck, we’re in a war zone.

She’s not wrong, they took a risk. And we appreciate it. Now let’s settle down.

The big guy turns to Duck

Holy shit ! One of them is bitten!

Deciding I had enough of this guy I speak up

He wasn’t bitten.

Hell he wasn’t, we have to end this now!

Kenny walks up stands in front of Duck blocks the asshole from getting to him.

I’m very my dead body.

Will dig one hole.

No Im cleaning him up, there’s no bite, he’s fine!

Don’t you fucking people get it! We’ve already seen this happen, we let someone with a bite stay and we all end up bitten!

Shut up !

We’ve gotta throw him out, or smash his head in !

KENNY STOP HIM !

Lee, Peaches, what do we do about this guy!

Dad, it’s just a boy, it’s…

Lily I’ll handle this.

But your heart dad you, need to calm down. Well get these kids out of here.

A rush of anger goes hits me.

Kick his fucking ass, if he ever try’s to touch our kids.

That’s what I’m thinking!

Everyone chill the fuck out!!

Nobody is doing anything.

Shut up Lily!

He turns to the other girl.

And you shut the fuck up. They will find us and they will get in here and none of this will fucking matter. But right now where about to be trapped in here with one of those things!

What the hell are you talking about !

He’s bitten! That’s how you turn!

He’s not bitten. Lee stop this. It’s upsetting him.

Oh I’m upsetting him, what’s upsetting is getting eaten alive!

Dad we get it, it’s a big deal.

Do you? You’re not fucking acting like it!

Lee starts to get aggressive as well

Sit down! Or that’s it.

Ha, your gonna whoop me? You and what homo parade.

I step in again, also more aggressive.

This one !

HA that’s good.

Kenny glances at you, showing a hint of a smile.

The dude turns back to Kenny talking to Duck.

Little boy! Before you eat your mommy, you can watch your daddy, and his little friend get their noses broken.

This little shit

I’m gonna kill him Kat! Just worry about Duck.

Me and Kenny keep digging into this guy. I didn’t notice that Clem and Lee were talking across the store.

Lee.

Yeah.

There’s someone in there.

It’s just locked, keys behind the counter.

Probably.

I caught that tho. I don’t have time to think too much on it because the guy with the peanut brain is still yapping.

Hey! I’m not the bad guy here, I’m just looking out for my daughter!

No you’re just the guy arguing for killing a kid!

He’s covered in muck! She’ll find the bite. WATCH!

She won’t.

And if she does? The first thing he’ll do is sink his teeth into his mom’s face. Then he’ll probably pounce on your little girl. She’ll turn fast, and then?

Please, let me punch this guy please, I’m so ready.

You motherfucker!

I go to punch him but Lee stands in front of me. (Damn)

Then we’ll deal with it then! But right now you’re just feeling everyone out!

Then get ready to deal with it, because that boy is bitten.

Kenny still standing beside me speaks up again

It’s not gonna happen!

It is! AND WHERE TOSSING HIM OUT NOW!

Something in Lee snaps

STOP, you don’t touch that boy, you don’t touch anybody!

I step in, like we were tag teaming

We’ve got my little sister, we’re trying to protect in here too! You want to get violent you old fuck, well come on!

Lee steps back in

You better have a plan to kill us tho. BECAUSE ITS US BEFORE ANYONE ELSE IN HERE!

(Yay girl power.)

Before the old man could say anything else we hear Clem scream. I drop everything I turn to see what happened to my sister.

We turn to see a walker was in the restroom and trying to grab her. He and Lee react fast trying to get to her.

Lee was a bit faster then me tho, he grabs the walker and start wrestling with it. While I grab Clem and set her down next to Kenny.

I turn and see Lee needs help. Frantically I look around and see a bat on the floor, so quickly I grab it and run towards Lee and the walker.

Luckily he pushed the walker far enough away from him that I could swing the bat at the walker and not both of them.

I swing and hit the walker as hard as I can on the head. Probably a bit too hard. Its brains went all over that side of the store.

Man.

The woman looks at us

You okay?

Just great thanks.

Uh… guys?

We all freeze, us shouting from earlier was so loud it alerted the walkers outside, now they are trying to get in.

We all began to whisper

Everybody down. Stay quiet.

Clem scared clings to my back while I cling to Lee. He puts his arms around both of us.

There gonna get in.

Shut up.

All of a sudden we hear him shots outside.

Is that the military?

I don’t know?

Thank god for whatever it is.

The asshole speaks up

We almost died because of this bitch and her yelling! That’s was stupid! That’s was.. ahh ah.

He doubles over in pain

DAD!

He falls to the floor ( hehe karmas a bitch huh)

Was he the one bitten

I say with a hint of sass

No don’t be crazy! It’s his heart.

My pills.

He says very weakly, clutching his fucking pearls.

Uh-um Nitroglycerin pills?

Yes. We’re out. We’ve been trying to get into the pharmacy since we got here. Please try to get in there, behind the counter where the pills are.

She’s practically begging.

I sigh, I don’t like her father. But I’m not heartless. Me and Lee share a look making a silent agreement.

There’s probably another entrance. Maybe through the office?

How do you know that’s an office?

(Good question)

Uh educated guess.

It doesn’t matter, we need nitroglycerin pills. Please get in there. I’ll keep an eye on my dad.

Kenny finally speaks up again

Everyone else should get comfy and look for anything useful. We could be in here for a while.

I’m starting to think this drug store isn’t a permanent solution.

You’re right, this ain’t exactly Ft. Knox.

What do you suggest?

We need as much gas as possible so we can all get of downtown Macon. Fast.

Agreed.

Then I’ll head out and get gas. There’s a motel not too far from here, out towards the end of (Peachtree). I’ll work my way towards it and then loop, back siphoning what I can.

I hear Kenny chuckle softly, then look at me.

He thinks he’s so funny

This motherfucker, I cover Clems eyes real fast, just so I can flip him the bird.

He puts his arms up slightly as a surrender.

I shake my head smiling going back to the original conversation.

Alright well silence is consent. That’s the plan.

Damn Kenny distracted me, I didn’t even notice they were talking to me.

Well if you’re gonna go out there, here’s a walkie talkie if you get into a tight spot. Hopefully you won’t need it.

Hey that one was mine 🥲

Cool.

My sister has the other one. Check in with me and her and get back as soon as you can.

Kenny turns to wingus and dingus

And you. What’s your name.

It’s Lily, my dad’s Larry.

Keep a good eye on him. These guys will work on getting you your medicine.

Better than me Kenny. He turns to the other guy in the room.

And you, you keep an eye on that front door. You’re our look-out.

It’s Doug, you got it.

And I’m Carley.

Okay Carley, you’ll shift in with Doug or peachy when he needs it. For now, get some rest- peach you got a mean swing that could come in handy and Carley you’ve got a good shot and I’d like to keep it that way.

You got it boss.

Peachy?

I mutter under my breath.

Now get him those pills.

Well I’m glad that’s all over, I look down at Clem, I walk her over to a chair next to Carley. And sit her down. Popping a squat to her eye level so we could talk.

Do you need anything?

I’m okay, maybe I’m a little hungry?

I know Clem, I’ll see if I can find something for you.

I get up and start to look around the store anything to eat.

Near the counter I see Lee and Kenny talking, Kenny taking a quick glance at me then going back to Lee.

Huh what are those too idiots talking about. I wonder but I let it go once I found a energy bar on the floor

Well better then nothing I suppose.

I go back to clementine and give her the energy bar.

Thanks.

I nod and just decide to sit there next to her in the floor.

I don’t stay there very long tho, because Kenny comes up to me.

Hey, can I talk to you.

Sure, stay here Clem I’ll be right back

Okay.

I get up and walk with Kenny to a corner so no one could hear us.

So what’s up.

I wanted to thank you for standing up for my son. You and Lee really gave that old man hell.

No problem, plus ain’t no one hurting my little sister or duck, they’re just kids.

You don’t have to tell me, I was ready to tear the man’s head off myself. Anyways me and Kat appreciate y’all’s support. So thank you.

Don’t mention it.

But um, How’s duck doing?

He’s okay I think. We’re lucky as hell nobody got nabbed on the way in here.

Yeah, no kidding.

How is Clem doing?

Okay I hope.

Right, and how are you doing, you okay?

Well before we met Lee our parents left us messages that we missed so I listened to them. And um…

I try to hold myself together.

It’s okay you don’t have to say anything I get it. I’m sorry darlin.

I’m just not sure how to tell her.

You’ll figure it out, I’m sure you will. Plus she’s a tough girl.

Yeah she is.

But, that’s not really what I came over here to talk about. I wanted to talk about Hershel.

Oh.

We didn’t even try to save him that blood is on our hands. You know?

It all happened so fast.

I guess, but I can’t stop seeing him in my head.

Me too , but we can’t kill ourselves over it .

We killed that boy. We could’ve saved him together.

We did what we could and bad things happened. We didn’t kill Shawn. You think you did, when you think back on it. But in a moment? When things are really out of control. You don’t have a choice.

I guess.

I put my hand on his shoulder.

Just… try to let it go. And focus on the now.

I let go of his arm and go back to clementine to let him soak in what I said.

Kenny goes back to his wife and son.

(Kenny will remember what you said)

Authors note: and that’s the end of the second chapter yay, and so much more to go. I was gonna write a lot more in this chapter buuutt I’ll leave the intense stuff for the next chapter. Hope you guess liked this one. Next chapter will come out soon later taters. 😝✌🏾

[mydairpercabeth]

Everyone holding Annabeth to an impossible Standard

And then there’s Percy

[thatrandomblogsays]

Annabeth: I, a child, had to earn Thalia’s love, that’s how the world works! I have to earn my moms love. Love is transactional, you gotta be worthy of it first silly :)

Percy, listening to this on the train

[lilislegacy]

imagine being someone at new rome university and not knowing percy is the same guy as “percy jackson, son of poseidon, two-time hero of olympus, former praetor” because the thought doesn’t even cross your mind. like… he’s percy. he’s a total frat boy. on a normal night, he walks into a party, refers to everyone as bro or dude, socializes with every living (and not-living) person in the room, makes at least 50 sarcastic comments, plays 12 rounds of beer pong, drinks way too much, and then skates around campus on his skateboard yelling “I LOVE NEW YORK” (which makes no sense, because they’re in california) until someone calls his girlfriend to come get him.

and then one day there’s an attack, and frat boy percy is all of a sudden a fighting machine. he’s yelling battle cries alongside the praetors frank zhang and hazel levesque as they lead everyone into battle. (why is he with the praetors? and why…. why in the world do the praetors seem to be following his lead?) his sword slashes through armies of monsters faster than you’ve ever seen. he’s controlling the entire river surrounding the camp, creating huge waves as tall as skyscrapers that crash down all around him, wiping out monsters and causing mass destruction to his enemies’ ranks. the sky is suddenly dark above you, ice-cold water droplets are slashing through the air, and the wind is blowing so aggressively that it’s making it hard to stand up steadily. because he’s somehow created a hurricane.

and he looks terrifying. you can feel the power radiating off of him. he’s like a god. or maybe a monster. it’s hard to tell. you’re a little scared of him, to be honest. but also in total awe, because it’s extraordinary. he’s extraordinary.

frat boy percy is not who you thought he was.

[mo-mode]

I know it’s controversial but I think Annabeth geeking out over the Hephaestus contraptions was adorable

[minjimunji]

I drew Asian percabeth lol

Every time some racist loser complains about how my Percy and Annabeth “aren’t book accurate,” I will design a different version out of spite (and bc it’s fun 🥰)

So fuck it, Annabeth’s Indian and Percy is Korean

[springmagpies]

No, actually I will never be over Annabeth throwing her knife into the ocean hoping Percy will notice and come help only to have Percy, king among boyfriends, make the most dramatic ass entrance, knocking out attackers with a giant wave, ocean waves cascading behind him as he casually walks up onto the beach to Annabeth, hands her her knife and says “I think you dropped this.” Fucking legend.

[chloesimaginationthings]

FNAF Into the pit? More like into the daddy issues

[peecyjacksoo]

Knowing that Annabeth canonically had a crush on Percy since she was twelve was insane to me at first, but now, seeing the show, she probably loved him almost immediately. This dorky kid that chose her for a quest just because he knew she wanted to go.

[bajaja-blast]

you dislike Luke Castellan because he disagreed with an oppressive government system and actually took action to change the abusive ways him and his peers have been forced to follow for millennia.

I dislike Luke Castellan because in the Titans Curse he manipulated Annabeth, who he raised as his little sister, into holding up the sky, the FUCKING sky, for over 20 hours and had the audacity to walk away as though he was completely apathetic towards it while she begged and pleaded with him to help her.

we are not the same.

[beartrap11]

Kenny x reader

Author note: I have found almost no Kenny x reader fics and I have way too many scenarios in my head so fuck it I’m making a series because yes 😀🖕

Note this is my first every series I am writing so this is most likely gonna be god awful so u have been warned

This series will also be following the story in the game, with a few things that I might add just to make the reader seem more interesting

Rating: There will be definitely be some smut further into the story and this story shall be a slow burn also probably very bad writing.

Because your girl loves a good love chase

The character has a name because writing y/n is gonna drive me crazy and some characters will have colors and other weird things so that you know who is who.

But um anyways enjoy nuggets.

The World Around Us

Stranger to Friends to Lovers to Memories

July 19th 2003

I believe I was just about to turn 28, and I was home taking care of my sister who was around 8 when the virus spread.

My parents were out of town in Savanah, so I invited my friend Sandra over to hangout with my sister and I.

I remember my sister wanting to go outside to play so me and Sandra sat on the porch and talked while keeping an eye on my baby sister. I guess I looked away for too long because I heard a scream I turn around and some women was attacking my sister, me and Sandra bolted up and ran to protect her.

Sandra beat me too her and pushed the women off her while I grabbed my sister and wrapped her in a bear hug.

Are you alright? I check her for scraps, I..I think so? she says burying her face in my neck.

After double checking if she was okay I turn to Sandra to see her still struggling. Telling my sister to stay there I run to Sandra to help her by shoving that bitch to the ground. I grab Sandra and my sister and run back inside my house.

Once inside I put her down and turn to Sandra checking if she was also alright from that scofflaw.

Oh my god your bleeding, I practically yell, there on her arm was a bite mark it was deep and was definitely gonna cause infection if not treated fast.

I run to my phone to call 911…

Just for it to go straight into voicemail

…. To be honest I didn’t even know 911 could even leave you on fucking voicemail.

I keep calling back and trying to get someone anyone but nothing.

I start to panic. The only option we had left was to run to the hospital which would be a 40 minute walk from home.

While I’m about to tell Sandra we had to walk there we heard banging at the door, i slowly walk towards the door and look threw the peephole, to see that that women isn’t just there but 3 other people were there now and they were banging at the door trying to get in.

And they didn’t look like they were here to talk about god.

So with 911 down and people trying to get into our house to attack us. We were stuck, and my only option was to treat her bite as best as I could until we could get to the hospital.

Timeskip (because I’m lazy) 5 hours later

Me Sandra and my sister are sitting on the couch watching the news.

It looked like our town was in war.

People with no sense walking around biting and or killing people no one knows how or why this is happing and we are all scared

I see my sister hugging the walkie talkie my mom gave her as a birthday present.

I pull her into my side giving her a side hug

Hey they are gonna be okay.

I hope so, she says snuggling into my side. I’m scared.

Me too Clem, me too.

I look over to Sandra and see she looks pale. That’s not good. I let go of Clem and stand up to try and take Sandra to the bathroom.

Grabbing her she feels cold like to the touch which is odd but I don’t say anything about it not wanting to add to the situation.

I sit her on the toilet in my bathroom and run some water to splash in her face

Hey can you leave for a few minutes I think I have to throw up and I don’t want u in here for that

Hesitantly I I turn off the sink water and leave to let her do her business.

Going back into the living room I is Clem went into the backyard sitting on the tire swing

Sighing, I catch the house phone beeping showing we had 3 missed messages that we didn’t hear from having the tv volume up so loud.

I press the the button to the listen to the missed messages

It was from mom

Hey sweetie, we’re still in Savannah your father had a little incident near the hotel so we had to get em back to the ER and have him checked out.

Anyway he’s not feeling well enough to drive back tonight so we’re staying a extra day

Thank you so much for looking after your sister hun, and I promise we’ll be back home before spring break is over

Message over

I check the next message

6 hours later

Oh my god, finally! I don’t know if you’ve been trying to reach us all the calls are getting dropped.

They’re not letting us leave

And aren’t telling us anything about Atlanta

Please, please just leave the city and take Clementine with you back to Marietta

I’ve gotta get back to the hospital

Please let me know that you both are safe

I play the last message

Baby, if you can hear this call the police

We love you both so much

We love you

We love y-

Salty water drops on the phone

Coming back to reality I realize I’m crying and try to pull myself back together.

Are they alive? Are they okay? Are they…Dea-

Before I can finish my thought I hear a loud thud come from the bathroom that Sandra’s in.

I call out to her. Silence.

I slowly walk back to the bathroom and open the door. There on the floor is Sandra.

I dive on the floor and try to shake her awake.

Sandra, SANDRA!!

She isn’t breathing! Shit Shit,SHIT, Please don’t be dead. I get up from off the floor and try to call someone anyone for help .Nothing.

All the lines are dead, Before I could go to full panic mode… I see her standing in the hallway Looking down at the floor.

Sandra ? I walk slowly towards her.

Sandra ?

I slowly reach my hand out to her, and she grabs it with a death grip.

WHAT THE HELL !! LET ME GO SANDRA

She was just lying dead on my bathroom floor and now she’s standing in my hallway groaning and pulling me towards her with her mouth ready to bite me! I try to make as much distance between us as possible.

I look in her lifeless eyes, it’s as if her soul got sucked right out of her. This wasn’t Sandra anymore.

Scared, I yank my hand out of her firm grip, struggling I managed to get myself free from her and make a run for the backyard

She slowly tries to walk after me making grabby hands at me, walking with a limp.

I make it out the door and slow it shut before she could reach me by her walking too slow.

Her face pressed against the glass she keeps trying to get me. It’s as if she had no sense at all

Scattered I turn my head and stop see that Clem was gone

Clem?

CLEMINTINE WHERE ARE YOU !

About 5 minutes of me looking I see her hop back over the fence that leads to the woods. I run towards her hugging her

Don’t scare me like that! You can’t be going out there alone something could’ve happened to you.

I’m sorry, she says out of breath

But something crash in the woods so I went to go see what happened, and there was a man there he was next to a crash car, he saw me so I ran away.

A man ?

Not even a beat later I hear more of those things inching closer to the backyard fence so I rush Clemtine to get into the tree house we made a few years ago

Once Clem was inside I rush to also get inside, and I just make it before we hear something got into our yard.

We stay silent.

HELLO ! ANYBODY?

A voice. A man’s voice.

It’s a guy ,Clem whispers, maybe he could help us.

I whisper back, idk Clem that’s risky, we don’t know who this guy is he could be dangerous.

HELP!

SOMEBODY! YELL IF YOU COULD HEAR ME!

We stay silent

Where is Sandra ?

I hesitate in my response, she… you know the women that attack you and bite her. The bit did something to her. Sandra isn’t Sandra anymore. She turned into those things we saw on tv.

I say deciding to tell her the truth.

So she’s gone. I nod tearing up a little.

I go to comfort her but then stop once we hear the guy again.

HELLO! ANYBODY HOME ? I NEED A LITTLE HELP! … COMIN IN! Dont shoot okay.

oh shit

I don’t want to risk it, but I don’t want the guy to get hurt too so I look to Clem and ask for her walkie talkie

Hello can you hear me in there?

I repeat saying that until the stranger finds the other walkie talkie

Hello did she get you?

I was about to give up thinking she got him until ..

Hello sorry, I’m here.

Good . What’s your name. I’m Peaches your in my house.

Peaches he repeats as if by saying it out loud he will remember it more.

I’m Lee

How old are you ?

28.

Are you alone?

No I’m with my baby sister Clementine.

How old are you ?

I’m uh 37.

Okay.

Do you have family?

Yes, they took a trip to Savannah so I stayed to look after my sister.

Are you guys safe?

Yes we’re outside in our tree house, so that no one can get in

That’s smart .

I poke my head out the tree house door

Can you see me, I can see you through the window.

He sees me and waves

I look behind him and gasp.

LOOK OUT !

Though the window I see Lee struggling with “Sandra” and he doesn’t look like he’s winning, I look around the tree house to find something anything to help him and I set my eyes on a hammer.

Come on Clem.

We climb down the tree house and see that Lee is next to the sliding glass door Sandra at his legs. I run up next to him and give him the hammer. He snatches the hammer from my hand and smashes it on her head killing her. We stand there silently for a while.

Did you kill it, Clem asks Lee

Yes.

It’s okay, I think she turned into a monster

I think so too ?

Lee looks at me

You guys have been all by yourselves through this?

Yes

Clem jumps in

I want mom and dad to come home now, she says looking at me.

I look from Lee to Clem

I think it might be a while, I say guilt all on my face

Look, I don’t know what happened, but I’ll protect you both until then

I nod as a thank you

What are we gonna do now, asking Lee

We need to find help before it get dark.

Yeah it’s not safe at night.

Let’s go.

Time-skip

We had gotten a ride from some nice guys Shawn and his friend Chet , they where heading to there fathers barn, Lee and I helped them get there truck unstuck by moving the crashed car in front of us.

Time-skip (at the barn)

We met a sort of nice old man which happened to be Shawn’s father Hershel, Chet had left to check up on his mother. Hershel had allowed me Lee and my sister to stay in his barn for the night with another family who was resting in there as well.

Me and my sister share and matt while Lee has his own right next to us.

It smells like

Manure

Shit

Me and Lee say at the same time, I give him a sort of glare for cussing in front of Clem.

I’m sorry I shouldn’t talk like that.

That’s was a swear.

I miss mom and dad peach.

I know Clem I do too

I still haven’t told Clem about the messages that mom left, I don’t think I have the heart to tell her.

How far is Savannah ?

Pretty far.

Oh ok.

Clem falls asleep after that. I pull her closer to me trying my best not to break down. Everything that happened today is starting to get to me.

Peaches.

Yes.

Idk what exactly is gonna happen from here on out, but you and your sister are safe with me, I won’t let anything happen to either of you.

Promise?

I promise you.

Thank you Lee.

And with that I fell asleep, with Clem wrapped up in my arms. And our new friend next to us.

(The next morning)

Hey get up.

Not the best sleep ever but not the worst either, a new guy had woken me and Lee up, a white male with mustache, a hat on with baggy ruffed up pants and a white shit with a necklace tattoo around his neck.

Ugh I’m itchy.

Well you slept in a barn little lady, lucky you don’t have spiders in your hair.

Clem gasps

But I bet you daddy and mommy scared em all away huh.

I’m uh not her dad, names Lee.

I’m Kenny.

Before I could say anything a new voice popped in, a little boy with a pattern button up and blue jeans, dark hair and paleish skin.

Dad! Where gonna build a fence! There’s a tractor and everything!

Better get going or we won’t hear the end of it.

We all walk out the barn, it was a nice day out today, it was peaceful kinda makes you forget that the world is going to shit.

That’s my boy Ken junior, we call him duck tho.

Dodging of quacking?

I finally speak up, Kenny chuckles.

Quacking.

Daaaad!

See.

We stop next to his son and what seems to be Kenny’s wife. Kenny turns back to Lee.

The word is you were on your way to Macon.

My family’s from there.

Well Macon’s on the way and personally, I’d appreciate the company of a guy that can knock a couple peoples heads together if he have too.

He asks me and Lee.

I’ll see what the girls would like.

Ah gotta consult the missus, I understand.

He turns to his family to introduce us.

Honey, Duck, this is Lee and uh what are y’all’s names.

He turns back at me and Clem.

This is my baby sister Clementine and I’m Peaches.

Clementine and Peaches those are very pretty names.

Thank you

Thanks

We say in unison.

Can I ask why your parents named you Peaches?

Kenny asks me curiously

Uhhh it’s really embarrassing.

Can I tell them?

Clementine says with excitement I’m her tone.

I’m also curious.

WHY IS EVERYONE SO INTERESTED IN MY NAME ALL OF A SUDDEN.

Uhhhh, can we talk about something else now please.

I say with my face turning slightly red with embarrassment. They all laugh at me. Luckily they drop it Once shawn appeared ( will get to why it’s so embarrassing in a very very later chapter)

Well we should get to work, we’ve all seen what those things can do out there so the faster we get this fence up the better.

I wanna build a fence

Yeah? Well I need a good foreman. You can sit on tractor and yell at me whenever I take a water break.

On a tractor cool!

Duck and I will hop to it .

Duck and Shawn walk off to work on the fence, Kenny’s wife turns to me.

I can keep an eye on your little sister here on the porch. We can visit.

Thank you.

We all split up and do our own different things, Lee goes to talk more to everyone else. I didn’t want to let Clem out of my sight so I decided to chat with Kenny.

Hey um it’s Kenny right?

Yes ma’am.

Do you need any help with repairing your car?

Nah I think I got it. Do you need any help?

What do u mean?

I mean In taking care of Clementine. Do you know what you’re doing? Do u got kids of your own?

If I’m being honest, I have no idea what I’m doing, I’m just her sister not our mom.

He chuckles softly

Well at least you’re honest. Shit, better than I was when duck showed up, you’ll figure it out.

How is duck doing?

Good I think, Katjaa’s got a sister up in Memphis, we were coming back from visiting. We were in a gas station and some guy grabbed my boy. I thought he was kidnapping him, I was on the fucker in about two seconds and … Christ. Just lucky I was there. We saw a lot of bodies before we stumbled upon Hershel’s. But we’re a tough family Peach, ain’t nothing gonna faze us.

Huh you’re a good man Kenny.

Eh I try .

So what’s your family’s plan?

Get back on down to Lauderdale and let this mess get sorted out. Government will start handing out shots and the national guard will do its thing. On the odd chance things got too bad, we could hop on my boat, I guess.

You’ve got a boat?

I’m a commercial fisherman, catching mackerel dolphin, whatever’s biting and paying. Katjaa wouldn’t be wild about it, but the boats not that bad.

Huh that’s not too bad of an idea.

At this point Kenny starts asking me questions about me Clem and Lee. And I decide to answer truthfully.

So how did y’all get here?

Me and my sister were hiding in our tree house because my friend had a bite on her arm and turned into those things, when Lee came stumbling into our yard hurt and looking for help. He killed her and took us under his wing. That’s when we met Shawn and his friend Chet and they offered us a ride here.

I see, hasn’t been easy for y’all either then.

Nope not at all.

So what about your parents where are they?

I hesitate in my answer, but before I could respond. We hear a scream not to far from us. Saving that conversation for later we ran to where we heard screaming. There the dead was trying to get Duck and Shawn. Shawn was stuck under the tractor. And duck was being grabbed by the dead. Kenny ran up to him and tried to pull him away but was struggling.

So I had to make a choice.

Save Shawn or save Duck?

I make my choice and run to help Duck. I’m sorry Shawn.

I run toward Kenny and Duck and I punch the dead right in the face making it loose its grip on Duck. Kenny saw the opportunity and took it, he pulled as hard as he could and soon enough the thing let go of Duck.

Kenny picks up Duck and runs further into the farm to safety.

PEACHES!! HELP ME PLEASE !!

I run to Shawn thinking I had enough time to save him as well. But I was too slow, the fence broke and fell right on him. Eating him alive, Hershel and Lee come running over to help. Hershel shoots all the dead in the head crouching down to his now dead son.

Everyone is now standing on the side looking in horror.

Get out. GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE.

Hershel’s now looking at us.

I’m sorry.

SORRY, your son is alive. YOU DONT GET TO BE SORRY.

He turns to me.

AND YOU! you didn’t even try to help my boy!

I look down in shame

I…I thought I could save them both.

Look at him. You thought wrong. And now… please just go. GET OUT! AND NEVER COME BACK!

He turns back to his son.

Tears in my eyes I turn to everyone else. Kenny’s eyes are on me.

Peaches.

I look up, tears falling down my face.

Y’all got that ride to Macon if you want it.

Giving me one last glance he walks back to his car his family in tow. Lee grabs my shoulder reassuringly. I look over to him.

It’s okay, let’s go, I’ve got you.

Clem runs to my side giving me a side hug sticking to me like glue and we stay that way walking to Kenny’s truck. We get in .And Kenny drove away.

I never saw Hershel again after that day.

(Kenny will remember you saved Duck)

just saw the most heartbreaking annabeth take from ep 3

[forrpercyy]

convinced I could tell someone who doesn’t know what pjo is that it’s a romance novel because

“the way her pulse aligned with mine when we held hands.” and “it looked as if our hands had merged, fused together at our life lines.” are such insane lines to be putting in a book meant for middle schoolers 😭

Percy at ease

Percy calm, but a little on edge

Percy when mildly angry

Friendly reminder that Percy jackson - our beloved silly adorable seaweed brain - is absolutely terrifying. When he’s angry, when he’s scared, when he’s on edge - he’s not warm and fuzzy.

No other character gets that reaction from people. Jason (the sweetie) is perceived as calm and in control, nico (our favorite self-outcasted outcast) is perceived as solemn and creepy, reyna (girlboss queen slay) is perceived as confident and assertive, and annabeth (our girl) is perceived as fierce, clever, and formidable. They are all intimidating to an extent.

But not like Percy. No. Becasue even when he’s at ease, he’s described as wild and disobedient. And when he’s not at ease, even if just little bit, he’s perceived as powerful, dangerous, and scary. Someone who NOBODY wants to mess with. Nobody even questions his power. One look from him has literal gangs running the other way. One look from him has Leo so scared that he’s literally shaking, and feeling the same innate fright and alarm that he does when jason summons an ear-piercing, earth-shaking, deadly bolt of lighting.

like… HELLO??? can we all just sit on that for a moment?? good lord

One angry look from percy has people thinking one thing: Run.

Percy is, canonically, the character that people find the most frightening and intimidating.

And unless he’s in a good mood - which you better hope he is - the reality is that most of us would be completely terrified of him if we met him.

Percy Hugging Annabeth: Yay :) Annabeth is hugging me. I love her hugs— oh wait, it’s just because she’s gotta whisper to me about Clarisse without looking suspicious. Okay. Mhm. Yeah, cool cool. So cool.

Annabeth Hugging Percy: Okay, I need to tell Percy about Clarisse without looking suspicious…Well, the only way to do that is to hug him like I never want to be apart again. Uh huh. The only way. Yeah, cool cool. So cool.
