28. Made To Suffer

After some time had passed and it was still just Carl and I talking a face looked into the cell. It was Carol. "Kids, it's time to eat. You can keep talking later on." She said to us and I looked at her with a smile. Then at Carl.

"We will talk later." I said to him and I stood up to get dinner. Soon it would be dark out. It would nicer sleeping in our beds than what we usual slept on.

"We finally get to sleep in a bed tonight." Grace said to me as we started to eat. She asked definitely happier about this, especially because we would be under covers as well. Being warm rather then being left for the prison elements.

"And we've got sheets so we can be comfy. And even better, we have a pillow for our heads." I said to her with a smile. That would feel like heaven to me at least.

"We can finally be comfortable." I said to her with a smile. As it was finally a time that we'd have a sense of security again. That was the only thing I needed. Although we'd had been keeping safe in solitary but cell block c had that sense of home and belonging. Grace and I went back to our cell and I saw Ellie come over.

"They're still not back yet. Do you think they're all ok?" She asked us and she lent up against the wall. It was hard to tell. If that were saving and getting Maggie and Glenn back who knew if they would be okay.

"I don't know but I know that they won't go down easy." I said to her, that was before we heard a scream in the distance. Grace and I stood up too look at Hershel, Beth and Carl. They'd heard it to. Ellie walked over to her Dad and I stayed in the cell, Grace behind me so I could protect her.

"What was that?" Beth asked us, and whatever it was. They were in with us.

"I don't know." I said to them, I didn't want to know what that was.

"That was from inside." Hershel said to us, I felt like our safety was being taken away.

"Was that Carol?" Carl asked, I hadn't seen her in a while. Maybe it was.

"She's out keeping watch in the guard tower with Axel." Hershel said to us and I went over to the stairs.

"What if they came back in for something? What if they're in trouble?" Beth asked her dad and that could be a possibility.

"If it's not then we need to stay hidden." I said to them, who knew what people coming in could do to us.

"Let's check the tower, see if they're there." Hershel said to us, I was hoping to not see them there. Give me some reassurance.

"How could anyone else get in?" Beth asked and that's a question that I wouldn't be able to answer but clearly there was an entrance.

"The tombs are filled with walkers that wandered in from outside. Someone else could have done the same thing." Hershel said to us and there was another scream.

"I don't like this." Ellie said to us and I looked at her. We would be okay.

"I'm going." Carl said and I looked at him.

"I'll go with you." I said to him with a smile.

"I can't let you go down there." Hershel said, stopping us from going. Apart from I had to go.

"Yes you can and you will." I said to him, I had to. I needed to make sure that Grace would be safe.

"My father would go." Carl said and that's when there was another scream. I looked at Grace and put my hands on her shoulder.

"Listen, I love you and I will be back." I said to her before hugging her. She hugged me back. That was before Carl and I left. We followed the screams. Which we probably shouldn't but we had to. When we found the source of where it was coming from. It was the boiler room. Of course it was. We heard a groan behind us, immediately putting the Walker out. We went into the room and saw people. Survivors. Two women, three guys. We went in. Helping them out. Until all was gone.

"Come on! Hurry!" Carl shouted at them.

"You need to follow us!" I shouted before we took them through the safety of the halls.

"Hurry!" Carl shouted at them, they stopped.

"Go! Just go." One of them said to his team. They needed to be quick.

"Let me take her." One of the other guys said.

"I'll cover you." The girl that hadn't been bitten said. It wasn't long until the walkers came. Carl and I took a few of them down. "Look out!" She shouted and Carl took down the Walker.

"You have to leave her!" Carl shouted, they needed to. She was going to turn soon.

"It's for all of our safety." I said to them, they couldn't be selfish and bring her.

"No way!" The guy that was carrying her now. I didn't even think once. These people could be a threat to us. They might want to take this prison over for themselves. When we brought them to cell block C I was nervous now.

"Oh, God! Donna? Is she dead? Is she dead? Baby?" Donna's husband said but she was gone. We needed to take cake of her.

"I'll take care of it." Carl said whilst cocking his gun. She had to go.

"Whoa! Whoa, kid. Wait a minute." The other guy said to us.

"We don't have that time." I said to him, and to think the others were through that door.

"She doesn't have that long." Carl said still with the gun still on Donna.

"Who the hell are you? How did you get in here? Who are you with?" The other girl asked us, shovel in hand. She didn't need to know that yet.

"Look, we can help you. First things first." Carl said and if they weren't going to let him do it. I would.

"No, we take care of our own." The guy said to us and he got a hammer. At least someone had there sense about them.

"No, Tyreese!" Donna's husband said to him.

"I gotta do it. Look, just take Ben and lean against the wall. It'll be quick." Tyreese said and he hugged his wife one last time. I went over to the door to let them take us in. We then locked the door on them. We had to.

"Hey, what are you doing?" The girl asked us and Tyreese stood up.

"Kid, did you just lock us in here?" Tyreese asked us, we needed to.

"Open the door." The girl said to us and we couldn't.

"This room is secure. You'll be safe. You have food and water." Carl said to them and I saw Grace looking I went over to her.

"What's going on?" She asked me and I looked at her. I walked her into our cell. 

"We found people but we've got to keep them separated for now." I said to her. At least until the others came back.

"But aren't we going to be help them." She said to me and I looked at her. We'll help them after they take care of their issue.

"Not yet, they need to wait for that." I said to her before looking back at the gate between us. Hopefully this would be the last people to join us.
