Rick Grimes RP
Days Gone Bye
“Carl, it’s time to just settle down. We’ll learn how to farm and stuff. Hershel will teach us.”
“Okay dad.”
“You look after these kids in here, you hear?”
“Yeah.”
“Good. I’m gonna look for Hershel to tend the farm.”
I stroll out of the Warden’s Office and into the cell block. The coughs of the sick are overwhelming as I see Hershel tending to Dr. Subramanian.
“Hey, I’m gonna need you outside to help with the farm.”
“Sorry Rick, can’t right now. Maybe you can ask Maggie or Beth to help ya.”
I walk down the steps to find Tyreese outside standing over two burnt bodies.
“What’s going on here?”
Daryl walks out behind me and so does Carol. Tyreese looks at me straight in the eye and charges toward me.
“Why’d you do it Rick? Karen was gonna live Rick. SHE WAS GONNA LIVE!!!”
I’m pinned against the wall as Daryl attempts to get him off me. He then turns to Daryl and pins him to the parallel wall.
“Were you in on this little redneck?”
I shove him off Daryl and punch him right in the face, knocking him to the ground. Carol looks at us in disbelief at what just happened.
Daryl and I walk out as Carol tends to a beaten Tyreese. The stenches of the bodies fill the entire cell block. How could such a person kill Karen and David? They were good people recovering from the Flu, just like everybody else was in the cell block. Who could it be? It only left me with one choice.
“Carol, how much do you care about these people?”
“I care about them greatly Rick. I provide them fresh water and food every day.”
“For the sake of this group, what would you be willing to give?”
“My life, of course. The kids deserve it more than I do.”
After a little pause, I ask her.
“Carol, did you kill Karen and David?”
She looks down at the ground, steps away from me and says,
“Yes.”
How could someone I’ve trusted since the beginning of the apocalypse go behind everyone’s backs and kill two of our own? How could Carol, widow and grieving mother of her lost daughter, kill Karen and David and then attempt to burn their bodies in order to cover it up?
Later that day, Hershel approached me.
“Hey Rick. We are gonna need you to go out and get some more medical supplies. I’m runnin’ low right now.”
“Sure, anything for you Hershel.”
As I walk outside, I see Carol washing the clothes. I approach her.
“Hey, I’m gonna need you to come with me on a supply hunt.”
“Um, yeah, fine, uh, sure.”
She looked nervous, as if I was gonna kill her or somethin’. We head down to the neighborhood to find two survivors named Ana and Sam. They were lookin’ to join us at the Prison and look forward to a happy life. I asked them, “How many walkers have you killed?”, “How many people have you killed?”, and “Why?” I give them a watch and tell them to find supplies without getting’ killed.
Carol and I enter the house next door. We kill a few walkers and search around for some antibiotics and liquid medicine. Carol then turns to me and says,
“Look, I had to do it Rick. They were gonna infect everyone else and soon before you know it, we would all be dead.”
I grunt a little and we move on. We enter a backyard, only to find the girl Ana being devoured by a couple of walkers. We take them out and head back to the car. Sam is nowhere to be found.
We put the medicine in the trunk and I tell her,
“For your own personal safety, I think it would be best if you left the Prison.”
Her eyes stood wide open. I continued.
“Maybe Karen and David would’ve survived and pulled through. It was not your decision to make Carol. If Tyreese finds out, he would go nuts and hurt you. And that’s something I don’t want to happen, not in my prison.”
I hand her a few supplies such as gas and food and give her a parting statement.
“I can’t trust you around my children. I can’t trust you around the other children. It’s best for the welfare of our group.”
With a tear in her eye, she walks to the minivan next to us and drives off.

Carol, you have been gone long enough. You were absent in the riots that broke out in the Prison. You missed the Governor return and kill many of our own, including Hershel. You made a terrible mistake and you know it.
I’ve become a crazed man, coming to the point where I had to bite off the jugular of a man who attempted to kill me. I itch and scratch on the walls of this train cart I’m now confined to. I find new ways to kill the living and the dead more efficiently every day. Carol, you made a big mistake in killing Karen and David, but you’ve made a bigger mistake in returning.
You’ve made the biggest mistake coming to me first. You had the chance to run before I catch you. But you stood your ground and looked into my eyes for scorn and revenge.
Carol, you’re ing with the wrong person.
(OOC: Good luck to my opponent, whoever you are lol. Interesting to write something about a character I see on a TV show. Idk, if you want to leave any comments here, cool. If you don't, fine. Either way, this was a fun experience and I look forward to doing it again in the future.)
