Who| Clementine and Sandy, then Zombie!Clementine
What| Clementine gets dead thanks to a not-spiderbro, Sandy happens on her too late to help and then suffers for her compassion when Clementine turns into a Walker
Where| The Orchards of Arena 10
When| Week 4
Warnings/Notes| Death and violence towards minors, child zombie
For Clementine climbing the tree's in the orchard was relatively easy. She's small and light, the branches easily take her weight as she grasps for the hanging fruit to drop down for later collection.
The orchards had been a last resort, she remembered how the apples had made her and Ellie feel sluggish and cold when they'd eaten them before but this week no little silver parachutes had come floating down for them with life-giving supplies. What little rations they had left would be gone within the day and that left two options, trying to kill the dogs (which besides the risk of taking one down also meant making a fire to cook the meat) or coming here. They'd decided on the latter.
But maybe it wasn't for the lesser risk alone that they'd come here. As they'd approached Clementine had felt a sudden craving for the apples that grew her, hot and hungry in her stomach. They had been tasty and maybe that coldness had just been a coincidence before, an unrelated feeling.
She climbs quickest and eagerly, biting into an apple as she moves, the juices running down her chin. So preoccupied is Clementine that she doesn't realise that she's going further away from her group, that their voices have vanished and the fog has closed in.
Neither does she realise that in this latest tree lurks something very nasty and hungry waiting for a morsel just like her.
