《Love In Hell (D.D.)》1.13 Carl And Guns
Advertisement
I was looking around and saw Glenn and Mom talking to each other.
I walked to them "You should tell Dad....or Shane, depends who the father is"
She looked at me with wide eyes "How did you find out?"
Me "Glenn"
Mom shot Glenn a look.
Glenn's eyes widened "I did my best"
She looked at me and pleaded "Don't tell anyone, Kendall, please"
I raised an eyebrow"Do you even know who the father is?"
She shook her head "i'm not sure. "
I nodded ,rolling my eyes.
Glenn left.
Me "you gonna keep it?"
Mom shrugged"I don't know. I mean, this is not the right world for a baby. "
I nodded.
Then i walked away. I walked past Shane and Carl but stopped when i heard Carl talking about guns.
I turned to them.
Carl"i wanna learn how to shoot a gun"
Shane looked at me but i just looked at Carl.
Carl"Can you talk to them? they will listen to you"
Shane was chewing his apple "We will see, alright?"
Carl nodded. He took a step and we heard a klick.
I raised an eyebrow "Carl"
Shane "Show me what ya got there."
Carl looked nervous and pulled out a gun.
my eyebrows raised.
Shane threw his apple away, pissed off "come on!"
------
I was standing next to Dad in a circle with Dale, Mom and Shane.
Carl was sitting on a chair a few feet away from us.
Mom took his gun away and walked to us "how the hell did that happen?"
Dale sighed"it was my fault. i let him into the RV. He said he wanted the walkie-talkie. That you sent him for one"
Mom "so on top on everything else he lied. "

She asked Dad "what do you think?"
Shane "he wants to learn how to shoot. he asked me to teach him. It's none of my business but i'd be happy to do it. It's your call"
Mom shook her head "Well, i'm not okay with it. "
Dad looked like he was considering it.
Mom "Oh, don't make me look like the bad one in here, Rick"
Dad nodded "i know. i have my concerns too but -"
Mom shook her head "there's no but. he was just shot. he is just back on his feet and he wants a gun?"
Dad "better than be afraid of them.There are guns in camp for a reason. He should learn to handle them safely. "
Mom shook her head "i don't want my kid walking around with a gun"
My jaw dropped and my eyes went wide. Shane, Dad and Dale looked at me.
That one hurt
Dad asked irritated "How can you defend that? you can't let him go around without protection. "
Mom "he is as safe as he will ever be right here. Look, everything you're saying makes perfectly sense. But it feels wrong. I mean-"
Me "The boy is growing up. Accept it"
Mom looked at me, surprised.
Dad nodded"Ken's right. We gotta treat him more like an adult. "
Mom "Then he needs to act like one. He is not mature enough to handle the gun"
Suddenly Carl stood up and walked to us "i'm not gonna play with it, Mom. I-It's not a toy.I wanna look for Sophia. I wanna defend our camp. i can't do that without a gun. "
Mom looked shocked at his words.
Dad to Mom "Shane is the best instructor i know. He started teaching Kendall when she was 6 years old, younger than Carl, and many other young children. "

Mom sighed and walked to Carl.
She grabbed his chin "You will take this seriously and you will behave responsible and if i here from anyone in the camp that you are not living up to our expectations-"
Dad nodded, sternly"He won't let you down"
Carl nodded "Yeah"
-----
Carl, Shane, Beth and her mother, i guess, drove off the field to the shooting ground. They had to drive away so that the shooting sound doesn't lead walkers to the farm.
Shane had asked Glenn but he lied and told Dale he had to help him.
I stood next to Dale.
Dale "Tell me what's wrong, kid"
Glenn was nervous "You are old.you know..things. so...what if somebody told you something that somebody else should know. "
Dale "Glenn, stop being dramatic. spit it out. "
Glenn "there's walker's in the barn and Lori is pregnant"
My jaw dropped and so did Dale's.
Dad came back and is now doing god knows what. Mom had talked to Hershel. Then Dale talked to Hershel. Now Mom and Dale are talking about the pregnancy. Only people who don't know about the pregnancy are Dad and Shane.
----
Glenn and Maggie came back from 'shopping'. I saw Glenn making his way to Dad's tent.
Me "Glenn!"
I walked to him "What did you bring her?"
Glenn showed me the abortion pills.
I gulped and nodded "Alright. "
Glenn nodded and walked inside.
----------
The sun was already going down.
I saw Dad walking past me "Dad?"
I held the pills in my hand. The case was empty.
Dad asked worried "What's wrong ,honey?"
I took a deep breath "i need to show you something. "
Dad looked worried.
I showed him the pills and he froze "She took them, dad. You need to know the truth "
Dad asked shocked and hurt "For how long did you know about this?"
I sighed" 2 days. It wasn't on me to tell you, Dad. But i think you should know about her decision."
He took the pills and walked away.
I called after him"Dad!"

Centipede
This is a fan fic set in the brilliantly crafted world of Chrysalis, which RinoZ has generously given permission for me to post. Our hero is no transmigrated human, but a genuine monster, spawned from the rich mana veins running beneath a fungal expanse. Unlike other Claw Centipedes, this hatchling is special, gifted with sapience and cunning. Both of which are useful tools to hunt and kill and eat with. Maybe even more useful than claws and stinger. (Probably not). Please join them as they seek answers to life's big questions: Is that edible? If so, how do I kill it? And can I get my kin to do most of the work?

Mistbound: Eternity
The world is said to be formed out of duality of man. Good and evil, right and wrong, light and dark. And with duality, comes conflict. A meaningless clash of ideals results in pointless wars. Azlan is wanderer who doesn't falls in either category. Tired and done with the redundant world, he lives his secluded life, hunting monstrosites for coin in the crumbling province of Mountaliya, situated in the land of Forsa. The premise follows Azlan as he explores the province, experiencing the culture and its people as they try to stand unshaken amidst a cold and unforgiving world. The story is a dark fantasy that is a balance of action and world building but most importantly, it follows the people going about their daily lives. The world has entered a state of stasis, there are no high stakes, no glory to be had, only a decaying realm of ice remains. Everyone awaits for Heaven's descent, an event prophesied to bring the world out of stasis, by granting the champion of the event a wish. Heaven Shall Descend. I wanted to write a high fantasy story that doesn't focuses too much on Magic and Swordfights, but rather interactions between people, a bit of politics and ideals. This is my first attempt at writing something this huge, please let me know if you see mistakes or any problems in general, so I can learn from them. (The cover picture is from the year 1818, "Wanderer Above the Mist" by Caspar David Friedrich). I also write Short stories set in the same shared universe. You can read them here: Dark Fantasy Short Stories.

Toric the Soulless
Hello everybody, my name is Spotacus. English is my first language, but that does not mean I do not make mistakes. Please let me know if you see any. I am going to post the first few chapters of a story I have been fooling around with. The main character is a bit OP, but completely clueless about his power. This is a fantasy type story, and I may have missed some of the tags. Description Toric thought he was a pretty normal kid, with a normal and boring backstory, but he was wrong. Follow his adventures as he learns the truth about his history, and discovers exactly how very far he has to go in order to embrace his destiny. Life will never be the same after the arrogance of a mage gives Toric an ability that was lost in distant history. Lost for a reason.
