You had just walked into the office to check out your upgraded armor that Dawson and the boys had made for you. You see it laying on the desk. Your eyes widen with shock and amazement.
"Holy shit." You murmured with amazement.

[Clementine's POV]
You were waiting outside for Y/N to come out with his new and improved armor. You then see Louis and James walking over.
"Hey, Clem. We finished cleaning out the greenhouse." Louis informed you.
"Where is Y/N?" James asked you.
"He's inside the office. Dawson and the boys made some improvements to his armor, so we're all waiting out here to see it." You explained.
"Oooo, New digs huh?" Can't wait to see it." Louis replied. They both stood next to you as the others walked up to wait on Y/N as well.
After what seems like 5 or so minutes, Y/N comes out, dawning his new armor. You widened your eyes with amazement, along with everyone else. His armor looked completely different, but much cooler.

*OC design of my own. Not entirely proud of the outcome, but I did my best. It's alright though. The helmet is more or less the same so I didn't bother drawing that. I know you probably can't see it, but The Battle Hardened logo is on the top of his chest piece.*

"Holy shit!" Louis shouted with amazement.
"Heh! That's exactly what I said." Y/N replied. He then walked down to everyone and they all ran up to see his new fit.
"Gotta say, Dawson. You guys sure know how to make some badass armor." Y/N complimented them.
"Well we just thought we'd surprise you with it. We have something else as well." Dawson replied.
"Like what?" Y/N asked.
"Well, we know that you lost your pistols in the boat explosion, and you handed down your colt to AJ. So, we thought you should have this to add to your arsenal." Scott explained, pulling out a large revolver.

"Damn! That's a big fucking gun!" Y/N commented in awe

"Damn! That's a big fucking gun!" Y/N commented in awe. He then grabbed the gun and inspected it.
"Takes 357's, old school. Thanks guys!" Y/N said, hugging Dawson and the boys.
"No problem, kid." Dawson replied. You smiled at Y/N's excitement over his new gun. Dawson handed him the holster and Y/N equipped it.
"You gonna let me shoot that sometime?" You asked Y/N with a smirk.
"Think you can handle it? It's almost your size." Y/N replied, teasing you for your height... again!
"You're getting a little too confident with those short jokes." You exclaimed, crossing your arms and giving him 'the look'." Y/N just giggled and scratched the back of his head.
"Alright, I'll stop. For now." He replied. You just rolled your eyes, walked up to him and pecked his lips.
"I'll make it up to you." Y/N cooed to you.
"Oh yeah, how so?" You asked, staring at him seductively.
"Not sure. But, I've got a few things in mind." He replied, pulling you closer to him.
"Ugh, leaving now." Scott said, walking away, along with Dawson and Kirk.
"Guess we scared 'em off." Y/N said with a chuckle.
"So, Y/N. You said there'd be a meeting?" Louis asked.
"Oh yeah! Ahem... Alright everyone. Here in a weeks time, me along with Clementine, AJ, Kirk, and Scott will be leaving for Richmond." Y/N announced.
"Richmond? Why?" Aasim asked.
"Yeah, guys. Why? I mean, you're both our leaders. Are you sure it's a good idea for both of you to be leaving?" Violet asked with visible concern.
"Well, that's one of the first things we thought of. But, Dawson has agreed to fill in for me and Clem while we are gone. He's a good leader and has the experience. So I trust him to watch over the school." Y/N explained.
"As for why we are going to Richmond, me and the boys have decided that we are gonna rebuild The Battle Hardened and put an end to the community war. So, we are going to Richmond first to recruit some potential soldiers. As you all probably know, Clementine knows some people back in Richmond, which is why we are going there first." Y/N added.
"I know the leader of Richmond, his girlfriend, his nephew, and the doctor there. I'm not sure how long we'll be gone, but we'll try and be back as soon as we can." You explained.
"Are you sure you won't need more of us to come with you?" James asked.
"Even if we wanted, we can't. There's not enough room in the jeep for anyone else. And I'll be taking my bike." Y/N replied.
"Don't worry guys, we'll be fine." You assured everyone.
"So, what're you guys gonna do in the meantime?" Aasim asked.
"Well, we need to find more gas for the trip. And maybe some other supplies." Y/N responded.
"So for the next week we'll be going on supply runs every day for things we need. Then we'll head off to Richmond." Y/N explained. Everyone looked concerned but nodded.
"Seriously, we'll be fine. I don't plan on dying twice." Y/N jokingly said, earning a few chuckles from everyone. You just slapped the back of his head in annoyance.
"Not funny." You replied to Y/N. Y/N just smiled apologetically while rubbing the back of his head.
"Alright, that's everything. You can all go back to what you were doing." You said to everyone. They all dispersed to continue their work.
