Crystal's POV

I heard my name being called and I came out of the tent I shared with Andrea and Amy. Before I could say anything, Shane rushed past me with a girl in his arms, telling me to follow him. I followed him and watched him set a almost dead looking girl on my cot.

"Shane-"

"Crystal, get the IV, now" He said. I fell quiet and just went to do as I was told. Once I was back, I watched Shane hook the IV into the girl's arm, him squeezing the bag some to push the fluid into her. He stood, hanging the bag from one of the tent poles, turning to me.

"No, she wasn't bit. It looks like she has poison ivy, please treat it and make sure she keeps getting fluids. When she wakes up, she'll be starving. By the time she wakes, Daryl should be back from hunting."

"But Shane, she looks dead already" I said, staring at her before looking at Shane when he walked to me. He cupped my face and gave me a small smile,

"And she could be dead tomorrow or tonight, but just because the world has gone to shit, doesn't mean we can abandon our humanity." He said and kissed my forehead, going to walk out before stopping "Oh, and thank you, Chrissy." he said and walked out.

I sighed softly through my nose and looked at the girl, going to her. I grabbed gloves and pulled them on, grabbing ointment and started to remove the girl's clothing slowly. I left her in her bra and underwear, since the rash didn't spread that far. I started to apply the ointment on thick and then wrapped it up in gauze bandage. Once I finished, I put my gloves in a ziplock bag and used hand sanitizer, no point in getting ivy myself, I stood back and looked her over. I could see her ribs and hipbones, if it wasn't the apocalypse, I'd say she was anorexic, I sighed softly and made sure the IV was dripping before stepping out of the tent and rubbing my face.

It was around noon the next day that the sounds of a siren filled the camp. I emerged from the tent to see if I could find the source, moments later, a red and black striped dodge pulled up. I walked from the tent towards it, seeing Glenn get out, Amy rush to him and bombard him with questions. Shane demanded something and soon the lid was opened and the siren stopped. After a while, a box van pulled up, Andrea running towards us and embracing Amy, I felt my throat lump up and I went back to the tent.

Moments later, I heard footsteps, turning and seeing Glenn.

"Hey stranger" I said

"Hey" He said and ruffled my hair "so we have two new people huh? Small world, we found Lori's husband in the city." He said and sat next to us,

"Huh, thought he was dead"

"Guess not. So, who's the girl?" Glenn asked, looking at her

"Dunno, Lori and Shane found her in the woods. She's badly starved and dehydrated, as you can see. She also has poison ivy all over her limbs and face." I said, stretching. Glenn nodded,

"Yea, I definitely see that. She'll wake up right?"

"I dunno, if she does, then it'll be in a couple days." I responded. Glenn nodded and stood,

"At least cover her" he said and picked up a thin blanket, covering her before freezing. I looked at him

"Glenn? You alright?"

"I...this...this is my sister.."
