Haley's P.O.V

"Haley listen to me what ever happens I need you to know that I will always love you"

"No don't say that I'm getting you out of here"

Her breathing was very shaky and weak "You need to run ok, please run"

"No, no I'm not leaving you ok I'm not leaving you!" I was almost screaming and tears began to fall uncontrollably

"Listen to me you are going to get out of here and run ok please run, run"

The groaning sounds were getting louder and closer

"I love you"

"I love you too sis" I said as the tears continued

"Now run, run, run please run! Go!"

I stood up and looked back at the walkers then back at her, I pulled my gun out and pointed it at her head

She looked at me weak, tears rolling down, she nodded "I love you" She smiled weakly

It was too much, all of this but I had to put her out of her misery "I love you" the tears increased and I looked away before pulling the trigger

I gasp as I opened my eyes. My breathing was heavy, I touched my stomach were I remembered about my gunshot wound. I groaned and looked around. I was in a prison cell. Holy crap how in the world did I get here? I tried sitting up but that plan failed

"I don't think doing that is the best idea right now"

Even though the plan failed I pushed myself and was able to sit up and looked up at the voice that spoke. I groaned. He didn't look familiar

He sat down a good length from me on a bucket that was upside down. He passed me a water bottle and I took it

"Thanks" I opened the bottle and slowly took a little sip. I groaned. It was a but of silence and I looked at him and decided to break the silence

"I'm Haley"

He looked at me "Glenn"

"So why am I in a prison cell, I thought there was an apocalypse out there?"

"There is"

I tried standing up. He quickly went over to me helping me "I don't think you have you strength to walk yet"

"I need to see out there"

He tried sitting me back down

"Glenn please, help me. I need to see out there"

He stayed silence

"Look I know I don't know you but please help me"

He sighed before helping me stand and helping me outside. The sun hit me and the small breeze went through me. I took a deep breath

"Come on let's go inside"

I nodded and he helped me inside where the some of the people were at. It was like a big room. He helped me sit on a bench from a table. It was quiet in there. Glenn handed me a bowl and a spoon. It was soup. I nodded "Thanks"

"I'm Rick, I guess you could say I'm the head person here. I'm the one who makes the calls"

"I'm Haley"

After eating I went back to my cell bed to get rest, I sat down and took a deep breath. I heard footsteps and looked up to see Rick at the doorway

"Thank you Rick"

"How many walkers have you killed?" He asked

"Uh.. I'm sorry?"

"How many?" He crossed his arms

"Too many to count"

"How many people have you killed?"

"1" I responded

"Why?"

I almost choked but I fought back the tears "It was my sister, she was stuck under a barrier and I couldn't get her out. Too many walkers were behind us. And there was no way I was going to get us both out of there. We were in a tunnel, I had no choice but to shoot her, put her out of her misery, no more suffering"

He nodded "Well your welcome to stay here until you get better. After that I expect you to move on"

I was going to say something but simply nodded and he left. I sat on the bed wondering to myself. Why help me if he's just gonna throw me out as soon as I got better. Plus I might as well die because I have nothing else

~Glenn's P.O.V~

Me and Maggie spoke for awhile then we began talking about Haley

"What do you think about her?" Maggie asked me

I sighed "She was pretty wounded when Daryl brought her in. Carol was able to patch her up but she lost alot of blood. She seems nice though"

"You think Rick will let her go when she's better?" Maggie asked

"He's done it before" I said as she nodded

Carol called Maggie for help with Judith. I stood up and walked passed Haley's cell and saw she was sitting there

"Hey" I greeted as I walked in and sat on the bucket once again

I heard her sniff "Hey"

"You ok?" I asked

She nodded "Just thinking that's all"

~Haley's P.O.V~

Glenn walked into my cell and asked me if everything was ok

"How are you feeling?" He asked me

"The usual, the pain after you get shot"

He chuckled "Yea, listen what did Rick say?"

I sighed "As soon as I'm better I'm gone"

"Look he means well its just"

"I get it" I said as I interrupted him "It's ok" I looked down

"Do you have people?" He asked

I shook my head "It's just me"

"You've been out there this whole time with no one?" He asked me

"It's was in a group.. most got lost, killed each other, and others bitten"

He stayed silent then spoke "How long have you been on your own?"

"Not long. My sister died awhile ago. I can't remember when exactly. I was on my own for awhile when I joined this group. It was a good place. But then they began killing people. People who wouldn't listen or who were disrespectful. Even kids. I ran but they followed me. They kept chasing me until they shot me and I lost them. I was losing so much blood an I was weak. Next thing I know it went black and I woke up here"

"Look I will talk to Rick, to let you stay" He said

"Glenn you don't have to do that"

"No, I want to. It's ok Haley. Your part of this group now"

I smiled slightly "Thanks"

He nodded and walked out

I laid back down and closed me eyes. I don't know these people but I felt like I could trust them.
