The Remains

You lay asleep on the ground until your shaken awake from someone

Y/N: Ah shit, what the hell happened

You let out a broken cough after you finish that sentence

Dante: You're alright now kid... they attacked us do you maybe it remember now

Y/N: Oh... yeah, vaguely I do

You look around at the surrounding area to see a horror unfold infront of your very eyes

Y/N: Holy shit...

Dante: We won, but at what cost right

The entire Hilltop has gone to ruins now, it's mostly only char left in it's place and much worse the walls and gate has fallen too

Y/N: They took down it all... they could destroy the Ericson's just walking past it, not even purposely they'd have no chance against all of these monsters

Dante goes to attend or help some of the other wounded, you rub your face and black substance is left on your hand

Y/N: The fire I almost died, no we almost died... weres Carl at

Carl: Oh hey

He stands over you

Y/N: Ohh... um hey

Carl: Are you alright

Y/N: As good as I can be doing despite the situation... well how about you, I mean you took a real spill back there

Carl: Oh, yeah well I've been better

You get on your feet and dust yourself off

Carl: But, so umm, look

Y/N: What is it

Carl: Thanks for saving me back there  you know from the fire

Y/N: Oh uh that, huh... it's nothing, you'd do the same I asssume

Carl: But I uh...

Y/N: You risked your life to save all those back in that building there... I just thought you might need some saving yourself you know

Carl: Thank you seriously... I'm sorry for before and about attacking you

Y/N: It's fine were past that now, we've got bigger fishes to fry than some stupid ego match

Carl: Yeah I guess you're right

Y/N: You know Grimes, you're not half bad

Carl: You're not that bad either

Y/N: So what do we do now... the Hilltop is gone

Carl: We'll rebuild here I guess we've had to rebuild before

Y/N: I know the feeling it's not easy starting completely over from the ground up

Carl: It's all we can do now... the Alexandra and Kingdom can help us... and maybe your group could to, or we could help you as well

You smile back at him

Y/N: That would be alright Carl

Carl: Good... for now I don't know what we'll do in the mean time maybe go back to Alexandra and ask for some help there

Y/N: Yeah I'd like to catch up with some people there

Carl: Well it shouldn't take too long now
