Say Goodbye To America/Issue 19

Time
Lisa: Really?

Rose: He was bitten while we ran away

Mark: Uncle, it hurts

Bob: We’ll have to cut it off like last time

Reagan: We have nothing to cauterize it with

Bob: So we’re just going to have to do it anyway. Hold Lola’s hand, like last time. Lola, hand me my knife

Reagan: This isn’t right. Find something to replace it with first

Bob: There isn’t a lot of time for that, now is there. Her gun just drew how ever many bastards will come in this area. We have to do this now

Isaac: Reagan. Let it go. It’s his family

Reagan: I told you the same thing when your family died now didn’t I?

Isaac: Don’t you bring them into this you sick son of a bitch! They died because I couldn’t protect them. This boy won’t die because his uncle protects him

Reagan: I didn’t say you couldn’t protect them

''Isaac slowly turns around to look at him ''

Reagan: I was saying they couldn’t trust you

''Isaac punches him in the face ''

Isaac: Fuck You!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''Reagan hits back with a side jab. They tussle on the ground for a couple seconds before being pulled from each other ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Sophie: Stop this senseless fighting now

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Bob: It is done

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''Mark lays in Lola’s lap with his left hand in Bob’s arm, bleeding ever so slightly. Bob holds it like a prize. ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''And that’s when things turn to shit ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Rufus: AAUUGGHH

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''Rufus is far away from the group, and his screams have most of the group running out to help him ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Rufus: AAUUGGHH. Get Off!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''They run into the direction of the screams and stop to look at him ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Griffith: You little bastard

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Rufus: Actually, they are bitches

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''Two dogs crawl all over him, two figures standing in the shadows follow them. ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Gina: Sorry about my dogs. They’ve been helpful and friendly. Till now

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Arianna: Hello

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Gina: My dogs are Lana and Cujo. Lana is the smaller one, and Cujo is the Saint Bernard

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaac: We can see that

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Reagan: Shh. Walkers can be any where

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lisa: We know, we’re watching

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Reagan: Look; I’m not what is tearing this fucking group apart here, okay?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lisa: No one’s saying you are

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lola: Quit it, both of you. Mark isn’t breathing

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''Bob bends down on his nephew’s chest, trying to hear a heartbeat ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''Walkers then come through the woods and attack the group. They are all unarmed, and all not ready. They begin to run off in all directions. Isaac, Lisa, Rose and Sophie run one direction and the rest stay behind to fight off the walkers ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Reagan: Bob. We have to run now

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Bob: I can’t run away from here. We need to stop the walkers

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''Lola screams for help as walkers crawl and bite her ankle and she drops on the ground ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Bob: Shit!
