17. Reckless

"So you killed Marlon. Huh.." She crouches down to his level. She didn't sound amused, but more or less, she seemed impressed the kid could do such a thing. Then again, AJ did have a small knack for violence. You noticed it as time went on. You don't know what you wanted, him to be violent or pacifist. That wasn't your decision, but you couldn't help but wonder what you wanted for the child. Clementine seemed to know. She was the one who raised him after all.

"I'd bet you'd make a great soldier." Lilly says confidently. Clementine sounded like she was about to lose her shit as she let out a grumble before deciding to talk. "Lilly. Please.. don't hurt AJ. I'll do whatever you want." Her voice changed into a desperate one. "Clem seems to care a lot about you huh? So does blabber mouth over there." She motions in your direction. Mitch mumbles something and looked like he was deciding to do something. You weren't sure what he was thinking of.

"Come on, let's go have a chat. Just us." Her voice was sickly sweet. Maybe ripping her voice box out isn't a bad option. "You stay the hell away from him!" Mitch protests, letting you go and getting up close to the door. Clementine also starts calling out for AJ as he's dragged away by the hag. You couldn't quiet down the shouts you sounded out either. Aasim and Omar may have said things to, although you couldn't hear them over the three of you shouting. Minnie shut Clementine's door quickly as she rushed towards it.

You all watch as AJ disappeared down the hallway and out of sight. "Keep an eye on her Minerva." Lilly says before she leaves, "Get this thing moving. I want to be far away from here, fast." The raider lady follows her out, "I'll start up the boiler." Violet looked horrified once she said that. She knew something you didn't. Well obviously, they've been free up until now and had plenty of time to discuss plans. "Don't. Don't you dare look at me like that!" You and Mitch look at Minerva who was glaring through Clementines cell. "This is the only way we survive."

"Who are you?!" Violets eyes held tears, "Fuck survival! Look at what you're doing!" She gets as close to the cell as she could to look at Minerva closely. Minnie's eyes looked to hold regret for a minute before she went back to being serious. "Minnie please.. I just want to talk to you for a second." Minnie stood there, staring at Violet as she spoke. "I'm sorry we never searched for you.. or.. for Sophie." You could hear a bit of clanking coming from Clem's room. "Im sorry we trusted that fucker, Marlon!" She aggressively spits the name out like it was poison. "If I ever thought there was a chance-"

"I know!" Minnie cuts her off a bit too aggressively for your liking, "I know, okay? But Sophie's dead. I have a new family." If she didn't kill Sophie maybe she'd still have her as family. So respectfully, that's all on her. "You all need to understand. This is the only way! Lay down, stay in line, or you die. The people you LOVE die." She turned back towards Clementines cell, her face filled with both remorse and slightly defensive. "If you just do what they say, you can live." She looks towards everyone's cells, taking in everyone's face. "All of you."

Clementine exhales quickly, "You gave up Minerva. I. Never. Will." And with that, she rams the door and Minerva's body crashes to the ground, her weapon leaving her arms. Clementine looked around before settling on helping Violet first. "Behind you!" Violet says, watching as Clementine is almost tackled by Minerva, she held a knife close to Clem's face. They both struggled before they both tumbled to the ground, still struggling even then. "You're the fucking problem here!" The knife went deep into Clementine's collar bone causing her to let out a pained gasp. "No! Clem!" You look around and kick the cell door, thinking it's rusted enough to cave in, although it's never that easy. "I won't let you get them all killed!" Violet sneaks out the cell and unlocks your own. You and Mitch quickly exit, unlocking Aasim and Omar's. Violet dives for Minnie's crossbow and points it at the two. "Minerva!" Violet shouts, aiming it. "I can't let her leave!" Minnie grunts content on killing Clementine, Violet looks at you with a remorseful look as Mitch nods his head toward the two. "I'm so sorry." Violet whispers and fires the arrow. To her and Minnies luck, the arrow only went through her shoulder instead of her head.

Violet more or less throws the crossbow and runs over to Minnie's aid, cradling her body and putting her hands on the bleeding to try to stop it. Blood coated the floor near Clementine and she got up, backing away. Aasim and Omar finally step out of the cell. "Come on, we have to go." Clementine says looking around, Violet shook her head but didn't say anything. "If we stay here any longer the bomb will go off." Well shit, "Bomb?" Mitch asks, a small grin on his face. "Mitch's masterpiece. Willy named it." Mitch seemed proud, and slightly egotistical. "Fuck yeah! That's my boy!" He exclaims, pausing once he looks over at Violet. "Let's go." Clementine insists, "I can't leave her!" Violets hands were now stained red with Minnie's blood. "Go I'll catch up!" Hell no.

"We need to get the hell out of here!" Aasim says, letting Omar balance his weight on him. He still had a slight limp. "Go. I need to find AJ." She looks over at you and Mitch with a curious look. "I'm not leaving my best friend." You state, looking over at Violet who was sobbing silently. "Better see you all on land." Aasim states, Omar glanced around expectantly. "You will." Clementine says confidently as Aasim and Omar quickly leave down the hallway. You pick up the knife and hand it to Clementine, but not before giving her a small hug. "I'll meet you up there soon." She nods as you both part ways. Mitch seemed content to staying with you.

"I'll help with the wound." You kneel down at Minnie's figure. "We need to leave quickly- the.. bomb. I don't know how much time we have before they start the boat! Once they do, we're so fucking dead." She explains all in one breath. She wipes her face with the back of her hand that isn't covered in blood. You rip one of Minnie's jacket sleeves off, the uninjured one. The cloth was now useable as a makeshift bandage. "Sorry Minnie." You're not really sorry. You grab the arrow and yank it out, gathering a loud cry from the girl and quickly move aside the clothing covering the wound. You only had to move the jacket a little bit. You work quickly, tying the cloth around the wound, and tie the ends together to make it stay. "This is all I can do. I have no alcohol." Then again, you weren't a doctor either. Just knew a few things. Violet nods, moving some of Minerva's short hair out of her face. "It'll all be okay. It'll all be okay." Violet repeats as she comforts the girl.

Mitch stood in the back silently, keeping watch. "Can you get up?" Minnie nods at you, pushing Violet aside lightly and standing on her feet slowly but surely. You grab her unloaded crossbow and toss it to Mitch who caught it effortlessly. "Get out and find Louis. Im going to go help Clementine once I'm done with these two." And just then a loud crash from above deck made your suspicions clear, she needed a bit of help. Maybe. A few more sounds occur before your quickly shoving Mitch down the hallway. "Go! Go!" He looked at you for a second, his mouth opening and then closing, shutting himself up and running away down the hall, loading the crossbow. You'll ask him what he wanted to say later. Minnie seemed a bit devastated that her crossbow was taken but eh.. she doesn't need it at the moment.

Minnie leans on Violet, walking a little down the hall. Violet turns to you before rounding the corner, "You better be outside soon." She says and you give her a reassuring nod, "I'm not going anywhere except with my family." Violet gives a small smile, "And tell Mitch to stay alert." She nods, walking out of sight with Minerva. You could hear them have a small talk about her having to do something but ignore it. Hopefully they'll be smart and get out now.

You rush up to the top deck, having only a second to decipher what you were seeing. "Do it AJ!" You rush over, trying to get a better view as you instantly hear a gunshot. You arrive and notice Lilly's body slumped over. AJ shot her. Just like Marlon. Clementine looked over at you, and you noticed Tenn and an unknown man there too. AJ looked like he was debating something, but than started shooting Lilly's body over and over.. and over again.

"Holy shit." You mutter, catching the unknown man's attention for a second before he turned back to AJ, "AJ stop!" A raider walks up the stairs, "Lilly we-" She stops, looking at her body. "What did you do?!" She raises her gun and before she gets the chance to do anything the ship makes a horrible sound and shakes. She tumbles over the railing with a scream. There was a splash sound before you heard her being ripped apart. Presumably by walkers in the water. Making most of you struggle to stand up straight. "Shit! The bomb!" Clementine exclaims rushing off the railing she was leaning against, "AJ!" That's all you hear as the ship erupts, pieces of metal and wood going everywhere. Your ears rung as your body collapsed, your skin felt like it was on fire. And you'd honestly believe it if it was. It was too dusty to see anything at the moment but you could feel your body slipping off the deck.
