Twdg Fanfiction - A New Hope

Chapter 32 - The Shadow

Nick was looking out the window.

It was sundown, it would be dark out soon.

Nick thought he saw something.

A shadow behind a tree.

What the hell?

Nick grabbed his rifle and went outside.

He didn't want to worry Noah and Seth so, he didn't say anything to them.

He saw the shadow behind the tree.

All of the sudden, the shadow started running towards him.

As it got closer, Nick noticed that the shadow was Craw.

Craw had a shotgun in his hands.

Nick had no choice, he dropped his rifle and grabbed the shotgun.

He ripped the gun out of Craw's hands.

He threw it on the ground, away from them.

Since Craw was so close, Nick could notice something that he didn't see before.

Craw has a scar over his right eye.

Craw had a dark look on his face as he took out a knife.

Nick moved before Craw could stab him.

Nick ran around him and his eyes widened.

Memories going through his head.

Craw seemed so familiar in his mind.

But, why?

He thought harder about this.

No, he couldn't be…

He saw it again, it looked like a dark shadow of a person.

“Nick?”

Nick looked at Clem and just smiles at her.

She had a worried look but, smiled back at him.

Nick all of a sudden heard a gunshot. He looks back at Clementine and sees she is on the ground.

“C-clem…?”

She was shot in the heart.

He turns and sees a person running towards him. The person was the dark shadow following and watching them.

Nick aimed his gun at him.

But, the guy shot Nick in the chest.

This guy killed Clem for no reason.

Nick's eyes flashed in anger and he shot the guy in the head, he was dead.

Nick fell to the ground and was on his back.

He was the shadow, the guy who attacked them. The guy who killed Clem for no reason.

Craw kicked him and he fell to the ground.

Nick couldn't reach his rifle.

He was about to be stabbed in the eye.

I'm sorry, Clem…

But, he heard a gunshot and saw that Craw was bleeding from the chest.

Craw fell to the ground now, he was laying on his back, he was bleeding a lot.

Nick looked up and saw Seth, he was holding Craw's shotgun.

Seth walked over to Craw.

Craw looked up “Seth?” he said

“Craw...I'm sorry...goodbye…” Seth said

Seth shot Craw in the head, he was dead.

Seth fell to his knees.

“...Craw never really did liked or cared about people, he hated them…” he said, looking at the ground.

He saw Seth grip the shotgun tightly.

Seth had tears in his eyes as he dropped the shotgun.

Nick walked over to Seth and fell to his knees too.

He hugs Seth, wrapping his arms around him.

He wasn't really the ‘hugging someone’ type but, Seth needs this.

Nick held him tightly as Seth cried harder.

“It's okay.” Nick said
