.
I was sitting in Cell Block D and was laughing with a couple of kids when suddenly everyone began to freak out.
I looked around.
Walkers.
I yelled " everybody, get out! Now!"
Then I looked at the kids " get Rick and the others "
They nodded and ran out.
Then the shooting started. I looked around and saw a gun.
I took it and started shooting the walkers.
Dad, Glenn and Daryl ran inside.
I helped the people to either hide in the cells or to run out.
then I ran upstairs.
There were two walkers.
I shot both of them.
.....
It was silent after everyone had left the cellblock.
I looked through the cells.
Suddenly I was grabbed from behind and pressed against a wall.
I screamed and tried to push him off me.
dad and Daryl yelled my name.
Daryl " get down!"
I ducked and an arrow pierced through it's head.
Then I pushed it off me.
Daryl ran to me " you alright ?"
I nodded.
Then I looked at the walker .
Daryl " it's Patrick. That's all of them"
We got the others and they helped us clear the cell block.
I was upstairs with Dad and Daryl. I heard a walker.
Then I took my knife out and stabbed it in its forehead.
He fell to the ground.
I looked closer at it and called out " Guys. "
They walked to me.
Me " I don't see any bites or wounds. He just died. "
The doctor came in " horribly, too. Pleurisy aspiration. "
Hershel " chocked to death on his own blood. Caused those trails down his face. "
Dad " I've seen them before on a walker outside the fences. "
Daryl nodded " I saw them on Patrick, too"

Doc " they're from the internal lung pressure building up like if you shake a soda can and then pop the top. Only imagine your eyes, ears, nose, and throat are the top."
I raised an eyebrow " so it's a sickness from the walkers ?"
Doc shown his head " no, these things happened before they were around. Could be pneumatically. Most likely an aggressive flu strain. "
Hershel " someone locked him in just in time. "
I shook my head.
Daryl shook his head " no, man. Charlie used to sleepwalk. Locked himself in. Hell, he was just eating barbecue yesterday. How could somebody die in a day just from a cold?"
Dad " I had a sick pig, it died quick. Saw a sick boar in the woods. "
Hershel " Pigs and Birds that's how these things spread In the past. We need to do something about those hogs. "
Doc shrugged" maybe we got lucky. Maybe these two cases are it"
I shook my head " we can't risk that"
Hershel looked at us" all of us in here, we've all been exposed. "
We were all sitting in the library. Carol, Daryl, Glenn, me, Hershel and Sasha.
Carol " Patrick was fine yesterday and he died overnight. Two people died that quick? We'll have to separate everyone that's been exposed. "
Daryl " That's everyone in that cell block. that's all of us. Maybe more. ".
Hershel " we know that this sickness can be lethal. We don't know how easily it spreads. Is anyone else showing symptoms that we know of?"
Me " we have children in here. When people die they become a threat. "
Hershel " we need a place for them to go. They can't stay in D. We can't risk going in there to clean up. "

Me " What's with A?"
Glenn raised an eyebrow and then shrugged " Death row? I'm not sure that's much of an upgrade. "
Daryl nodded" It's clean. This an upgrade. Think that'll work for Dr. So?"
Hershel " I'll help Caleb get it set up. "
Suddenly we heard someone cough. We got all up and walked to the door.
Karen and Tyreese were walking past us.
Me " Karen?"
they turned to us.
Tyreese " We're just taking her back to my cell so she can rest."
Hershel shook his head " Tyreese, i don't think that's a good idea. "
Karen asked confused " Why? What's going on now?"
Glenn " We think it's a flu or something. That's how Patrick died. "
Hershel " Judith was in that cell block. She's vulnerable. Anyone that may be sick or even exposed should stay away. "
Karen froze" it killed Patrick?"
Tyreese " she's gonna be okay. Now that we know what Patrick died from we can treat it, right?"
Hershel " don't panic. We're going to figure this out but we should keep you separated in the mean time."
Me " We'll have Caleb take a look at you. I'll see what we have in the way of medications. "
Karen " David from the Decatur group, he's been coughing , too"
Glenn nodded" I'll get him. There's some empty clean cells in the tombs, right?"
Sasha " yeah, we'll meet you there "
He rushed away.
I looked down.
I was in D the whole day.
Sasha took them away.
Hershel " have to call another meeting later."
Daryl nodded " all right. I'll get to burying the dead ones. "
Hershel " You wear gloves and a mask"
Daryl nodded.
Hershel walked away.
Daryl kissed my forehead and walked away.
I looked at Carol.
Carol a asked worried" What's wrong??"
Me " I was in D the whole day. What if I'm infected too?"
Carol " do you feel anything ?"
I shook my head.
Carol " want me to get Daryl?"
I shook my head " don't tell anyone, please "
She nodded " of course"
I was separating myself from the others. I was coughing already. Bad sign. I walked through C and heard coughing. I walked into to cell and saw Glenn.
Me " you too?"
Glenn looked at me. He was sweating and coughing.
Me " come on"
I walked to him and put his arm around my shoulders. I helped him get up and we walked to A.
We walked in an upstairs and sat down on the ground.
Glenn " does Daryl know?"
I shook my head and began to cough.
Hershel came to us, sighed and handed " keep this on your forehead. "
I took it and I pressed it against my forehead.
it's cold but it was soo good.
Hershel " Veterinarian's orders. "
Glenn coughed out" this sucks. After everything we just get taken out by a glorified cold. "
Hershel shook his head " don't say things like that. Don't even think things like that"
Glenn " all I can do is stop saying them. "
I laid down and closed my eyes.
Hershel " Stay with me, Ken"
I shunned coughing " It's so hot in here. Why is it so hot in here?"
Then I sighed " where's Daryl?"
Hershel " He's out on a run"
I sighed again " does Dad know ?"
Hershel shook his head " No"
I coughed out " I-i-"
Hershel " calm down, Ken. You need to rest, both of you"
