In Lincoln, (Y/N) is sitting on a roof, the sun is nearly setting and the town is as quiet as always. It had been a month after the his parents died and he has been planning on leaving to find his uncle Sam. He had a lot of time to think of where he was but he didn't know how to get to him

His train of thought was interrupted by the sound of something heavy hitting the floor. He bring out some bingo and looks at the building. Through the binoculars he saw a man hanging upside down as a girl tries to get him down. He quickly goes back to inside and sees bill drinking

(Y/N): Bill you have a problem

Bill: not this shit again

(Y/N): not about your drinking, there some guy that got caught by one of your traps

Bill: shit, where?

(Y/N): down by that warehouse, you know, the one with the fridge trap

Bill: Shit. Stay here and DON'T touch anything

He quickly gets up and put on his gas mask then ran out the door

(Y/N): yeah sure...... I'm gonna touch everything

He goes into Bill's office and looks behind the desk to find a rifle. He grabs it and quickly heads back to the roof. Once he does he quickly gets down and takes aim

Through the scope he sees a runner about to attack the girl but shoots it before it can get her. She looks for whoever shot it down but decides to go back and cut the rope. He tried his best to keep the girl safe till Bill eventually came and helped them

They run back to the bar and (Y/N) sighs in relief. He takes a swig of his water and heads back down stairs. Once he gets there he sees Bill had handcuffed the girl and was checking the man for any bites

Bill: any bites?

???: no

Bill: anything sprouting?

???: No God damnit we're clean

The girl then breaks the pipe she's cuffed to and goes to hit Bill. Before she could actually hut him she felt something touch her back

(Y/N): Don't do anything well both regret

Bill: Didn't I tell you to not touch anything

(Y/N): you should know that I don't listen by now

Bill goes and takes the rifle away from him

???: you done?

Bill: Am I done. You come into my house, you set off all my traps, and your little girl nearly breaks my shooting arm. Who the hell even is this little punk anyway

???²: I am none of your God damn business. Now we're here because you owe Joel some favors and you can start by taking these off

She lifts her hand up to show him the cuffs that he put on her. All Bill does is laugh at the ridiculous claims

Bill: I owe Joel some favors. What is this some kind of joke

Joel: I'll cut to the chase, I need a car

Bill: well this is a joke

While those two were arguably (Y/N) say down on one of the stools by the window. He then sees the girl walking up to him and holds her hand out

???: thanks for helping me out there

(Y/N): you do know I put a rifle to you back not even a minute ago

???: you were just protected your dad. I think that's a reasonable thing to do

(Y/N) laughs at the claim making the girl get confused

(Y/N): he's not my dad. I barely know the damn guy he just helped me get my shit together

???: he doesn't really seem like the type of guy who'd help out of the kindness of his heart

(Y/N): no he ain't. I just told him I'd help around as thanks for him helping me. He still locks me in a room at night so won't do any suspicious but *whispers* I know how to pick a lock

???: cool

He sees that she's still holding out her hand so he decides to finally give her that handshake she's been waiting for

(Y/N): (Y/N) Francis Drake

???: Francis?

(Y/N): After my great great grandfather

???: I'm Ellie

(Y/N): Nice to meet you Ellie

Ellie: Nice to meet you too sir Francis Drake

(Y/N): Don't call me that

Meanwhile back with Joel and Bill. Bill is showing Joel where to get a battery for his car. He hands him the keys to the handcuffs and he goes to free Ellie. Before he does Bill grabs his shoulder

Bill: You're gonna have to take the kid along with you though

Joel: I already got one probably on my hands I don't need another

Bill: You either take him or you don't get the car!

Joel: ..... Fine! But I'm not going to be responsible if anything bad happens to him

Bill: The kid can handle himself, he's trying to find his uncle, he'll be better off going with you

Joel sighs and goes to uncuff Ellie and he throws them away

Bill: Follow me, whole town's booby trapped, best stay right on my ass. (Y/N) c'mon you're going too

(Y/N): Finally. I was getting tired of staying in this bar all month

He goes to the office and grabs his backpack then follows them out the bar. They crossed through buildings in order to avoid any of Bill's traps

Bill: So what kind of trouble you in? Where the hell is Tess

Joel: It's a job. A simple drop off

Bill: What you delivering? That little brat

Ellie: Haha. Fuck you too!

(Y/N): Why are you being smuggled? You special or something. Some kind of terminator

Ellie: what's a Terminator

(Y/N): A badass assassin Robot that stops at nothing until it kills its target

Ellie: woah you ever seen one

(Y/N): Nope, I wish I did though. I heard they are unstoppable, they hide in the crowd with us using artificial flesh

Ellie grew more and more curious as (Y/N) told her about the Terminators and how cool they were. Up ahead Bill and Joel heard the conversation and Bill couldn't help but laugh

Bill: You gonna tell them it's just a movie they're talking about

Joel: Just let them be kids for now

They go outside and hear one of Bill's traps go off. After that several infected run at them from behind the cars. Ellie didn't have a gun so she picked up a bottle from the floor

They clear ou the small horde with Ellie throwing a bottle or brick every now and then. Bill quickly goes to open the cellar door and motions everyone inside

Bill: Well here we are. And you two don't touch anything, especially you (Y/N), and you close the door

Bill turns on a small light and Ellie goes to grab a gun but Joel stops her

Joel: uh-uh

Ellie: What?! I need a gun.

Joel: No you don't

Ellie: Joel. I can handle myself

Joel: No. Just.... stay here

He walks ahead with Bill to grab some guns while Ellie and (Y/N) stay at the door. She groans and looks over at (Y/N) who is currently writing on a small book. She goes behind him and looks over his shoulder

Ellie: What you writing

(Y/N): *Spooked* JESUS. Don't sneak up on me like that, nearly gave me a heart attack

Ellie: Sorry, you just seemed really focused on that book, what were you writing anyway.

(Y/N): it's just a small hobby of mine. I like writing about things I find, like stuff before the outbreak and all that. Guess you can say I'm into historic relics

Ellie: Really!? C'mon dude let me see

(Y/N): I don't know

Ellie: I promise I won't laugh

(Y/N):.... Fine but don't laugh

Ellie: Yes.

He let her have a look and to her surprise the drawings weren't that bad. She flipped through the pages and saw many things like a drawing of a BlackBerry, a Gameboy, a PSP, and a Polaroid.

She felt something fall out of the book and looked to see what it was. (Y/N) quickly grabs it and put it in his pocket

Ellie: what was that?

(Y/N): it was-

Bill: kid c'mon we're getting that battery

(Y/N) nods and holds his hand out waiting for Ellie to give him his book back

(Y/N): I'll tell you some other time

She nods and hands his book back and continue following Bill and Joel to get the battery

That's another chapter. Tell me what you think because I'm not sure on how to write this story. Anyway I'll figure it out and hopefully it comes out good. Anyway that's all bye
