This World We Live In(the walking dead fanfiction)

Chapter 32

"So how do we shut the gate?" Hershel asked.

"I'll do it. You guys cover me." Glenn said.

"No. Suicide run." Maggie said.

"Well I can do it." I said.
"No!" Alexis shouted.

"No. Glenn, Maggie and Beth. Draw as many as you can over there. Pop 'em through the fence. Daryl, go back to the other tower. Carol, you've become a pretty good shot, take your time. We don't have a lot of ammo to waste.
Hershel you and Carl take this tower. Lizzie you stay with me." Dad said and everyone went to there desired spots.

Me and dad started run up the walk way. We shot a few walkers down.

When we finally reached the front gate I kicked a walker in, knocking another 2 over and closed the gate and clipped it together.
We ran to the guard tower closest to where we were.

"Light it up!!" I heard Daryl scream.

Everyone started shooting.

After a while the courtyard was completely free.

We all went to the ground.

"Fantastic!" Carol said and I smiled.

Everyone was hollering and whooping that we did it. I ran into the centre of the field and flopped down onto the grass.

Everyone moved the vehicles.

We all gathered around a fire Carol was cooking and we ate the most delicious meal ever.
After we finished Beth started to sing a song that I would always sing my favourite song.
'Parting glass'.
"Of all the money e'er I had,

I spent it in good company,

and all the harm that e'er ever done,

alas it was to none but me,

and all I've done,

for want of wit,

to mem'ry now I can't recall,

so fill to me,

the parting glass,
good night and joy be with you all." Beth sang beautifully and Maggie and I joined in.

"Oh all the comrades that e'er I had,

they're sorry for my going away,

and all the sweethearts that e'er I had,

would wish me one more day to stay,

But since it falls unto my lot,

that I should rise and you should not,

I gently rise and softly call,

goodnight and joy be with you all

goodnight and joy be with you all."

we finished up the song and everyone smiled.

"Beautiful." Hershel said causing everyone to smiled.

I haven't felt this safe since before the apocalypse.

I don't think it will last long.
