The Walking Dead : This Lucky Bastard

When they got there, It was soon going to be dark so Hershel hurried to Beth and Rick called a general meeting where he and Cal explained the general situation with the group of looter and murder survivors.

They shared every piece of information they had and panic set in. Shane offered to leave because clearly they weren't ready to face this group and he was supported by Dawn who found it too risky everyone else wanted to leave too.

 Cal: It would be the simplest prudent thing to do but there is a risk that they have monitored or even booby-trapped the roads.

 Rick: He's right and if we find a way to leave then we can't leave Hershel here alone with his daughters.

 Dale: There has to be a way...

 "Yeah there's always a way..." Cal said before walking towards his truck and Reyes followed.

Cal went to his room so Christina asked him what he was planning to do but he didn't answer right away.

He inserted the code under his bed to open the weapons chest and began to equip himself when Reyes realized what he intended to do.

 Reyes: NO, THAT'S OUT OF THE QUESTION!

 Calvin: Are you giving orders now?

 Reyes: Please stop, we'll find a solution. What will you do at 1 against 34?

 Calvin: 29

 Reyes: What?

 Calvin: 29, I killed 5 of them at the bars.

 Reyes: Yes and you are strong, you are even very strong but there are too many of them. Please…don't leave.

 He took the key from the King and handed it to Christina.

 Calvin: There are children here, leaving is risky and fighting is even riskier. I know my abilities and I can't sit there knowing I can do something. If I don't come back then take care of my baby, I love this truck.

 Christina: I love you...

 Calvin: What?!

 Christina: I wasn't sure and I thought it was just a crush but I'm sure now.

 Calvin: We haven't even known each other for two weeks.

 Christina: I know and I don't care if you don't feel the same way but stay, please stay here.

 Cal: I don't really know what to think, you're taking me by surprise. I wanted to gut those guys when they looked at you at the bar and if I don't want anything to happen to you and the others then I have to at least try.

 Christina: At least let me come with you...

 " This is out of the question !! I will come back to you...I promise" He said before leaving as Christina's throat tightened and she sat down heavily looking at her shaking hands.

 Cal walked to the pickup he had taken into town and Daryl who saw him alerted Rick and Shane who ran towards him.

 Daryl: Can we know where you're going?

 Cal: In town, looking for medicine.

 Shane: Equipped like that?

 Cal: There could be a horde.

 Rick: Zombies don't use guns and you have a bulletproof vest.

 Cal: Okay, you win. I'm going scouting to locate the base of our friends the raiders. We could watch them or see them coming from a surveillance post.

 Daryl: I'm coming with you.

 Cal: No Dixon. If I get killed or caught then it will only be a loss. You have your brother to find. Don't tell the others, I'll be back soon.

 Rick wanted to detain him but he left there to first go to the place where they killed those guys before.

If they were sent to the area and these guys didn't come back, there was a good chance that more people would definitely be sent to check.

 [background music: Fukumean - Gunna]

 Cal was right to think that more men were coming and they came in a military jeep with a turret attached to it.

Cal was hiding on one of the roofs of the small town when he saw them arrive, he had an HK416 assault rifle with a silencer and a scope.

Lying on his stomach, fully aiming and with perfect control of the weapon he was touching, Cal fired three shots which hit a tire, the driver and the guy in the turret directly in the head.

 The driver, dying suddenly, turned the wheel to the right and the car violently hit a wall. Stunned but alerted, three other men in the jeep quickly got out of the vehicle when Cal fired a few more shots which hit them directly in the knees, making the men unable to move.

He quickly got down from there and approached their position before the walkers alerted by the noises arrived.

Cal came with a gun and one of the men with his gun within reach tried to shoot him but he was shot in the hand.

Cal came and took one of them and dragged it to one of the nearby stores.

 The walkers began to approach the scene of the accident under the panicked cries of the two men outside and Cal violently threw the bandit he had dragged there against a wall.

 "You have a choice nigga, either you answer my questions and I leave you here, or you play gangsta and I leave you to the devourers outside like your two friends." Cal said crouching down as outside he heard the screams and gunshots of the two men who tried to fight off the approaching walkers.

 Bandit: I'll answer...I'll answer, please don't throw me out man...I'll answer.

 Cal: That's cool, where are your base nearby and the troops you sent to search the area?

 Bandit: Our group's base...our base is at the entrance to the city at the water tower, there is a building near it and a solid gate surrounding it. There are no troops on the move at night, Harlan our leader thinks it's too dangerous. Dave and the others, did you kill them? We came to get them.

 Cal: How many people have you killed and how many people have you raped with your friends?

 Bandit:…I don't know…I don't know man, I just followed.

 "It doesn't matter, I got what I wanted and I'm going to keep my word..." Cal said before shooting the second knee of the man who screamed before walking out and leaving the door wide open , the man's screams began to be heard by the walkers as he begged Calvin to come back and not leave him like this.

 Calvin quickly returned to his vehicle and drove towards the water tower. He stopped a good distance from the location so as not to have his car spotted and climbed to the top of a building near the enemy camp.

Calvin watched them for a while before taking a nap in a hidden spot on the roof just in case. Cal opened his eyes a few dozen minutes later when he heard noises in the enemy base.

 They were agitated because of their people who had still not returned and even if some were worried, they didn't want to move and look for them because even if there were many of them dangerous and cruel, the group itself was quite chaotic. Calvin had killed 10 of their members today, leaving only 24 men in the enemy camp.

 He observed them and apparently, they had organized a large patrol for the night. He had counted exactly 7 people as sentries who would certainly be replaced later while the others went to rest and he waited almost two hours of estimates for the others to sleep before starting to act.

 He descended from the building and carried out an observation on the ground before climbing up one side of the gate away from the building.

It was a gate so it made a little noise but enough noise for one of the sentries to come and inspect the area and Calvin saw him approach from a distance.

The man arrived and began to survey the area while Cal was hidden nearby in the dark around the corner of a wall. Having seen nothing, the man took the opportunity to put his gun behind his back and start urinating when Cal approached him from behind and closed his mouth with his left hand to slit his throat with a Japanese knife Yanagiba he had taken several in an abandoned restaurant in Atlanta because he was shocked by the sharpness of their blades.

 With the dead man in front of him, He plunged the knife into the dead man's head by the temple. Cal didn't question why he could now kill people without any restraint or conscience before continuing to move forward.

He killed 4 other sentries with this knife and he took out the silenced pistol to kill the sentry on the roof and the other near the vehicles.

With these 7 fewer people, there were only 17 people left in the group but as Calvin was walking through the building, one of the men came out of one of the rooms in front of him, pulling up his sweatpants under which he appeared to be in end of erection and he was scared by Cal who he thought was one of the members of the group in the dark.

 "What's wrong with you to scare me like that ?! Besides, *dies*..." he hadn't even finished his sentence when Cal shot him in the head.

 "NO PETE…!" A man shouted in the room he had just exited and Cal moved closer as the bearded man came out with a shotgun turning towards Cal who with his left hand quickly deflected the barrel of the gun towards the top.

 *TBOOM*

 The man fired while Calvin killed him at the same time by firing his pistol under the man's chin and the bullet exiting the top of the head.

Unfortunately, with all this noise the remaining 15 occupants of the building woke up or were interrupted in their activities and all went on alert.

 « Shit ! » Calvin cursed before entering the room where the two men had been and it smelled of sweat and shit.

Preferring to ignore what had been here, he climbed out of the room's window before climbing to the upper floors.

The noises were coming from below so they wouldn't suspect that the enemy was already upstairs. Once there Cal reloaded his gun but suddenly hid as three men ran past and he came out of hiding to kill two of them with shots to the back of the head, the last man returned but Cal had already rushed at him to tackle him to the ground.

He tried to struggle but Cal punched him, knocking out a few of his teeth before shooting him in the head. There were only 12 men left.

 He went back down the stairs where an enemy was coming back up but when he saw himself the man fired his assault rifle at the same time as Calvin who was thrown backwards when he was hit in the chest, shoulder and his cheek had been injured by one of the bullets from the burst which grazed him while the man had caught Cal's bullet in his eye, it was Harlan but Calvin didn't even know it.

He got up from there, thanking the bulletproof vest even though his chest and shoulder hurt.

 He quickly went down from there taking his HK416 assault rifle and quickly killed 4 of the arriving men when coming out of one of the rooms, a man with an AK47 shot at him and although he ran in time to take cover, he was still hit in the thigh.

Cal was in pain, very sore, but he held on, sitting on the ground behind one of the walls. He took out his knife to see the reflection of the man who had himself hidden behind a crate and often watched the position of Cal who took his pistol and looked towards the enemy.

The very second the man tried to look in Calvin's direction, Calvin shot him in the head. There were only 6 men left.

 Calvin ignored the pain in his thigh as he limped with his assault rifle as two men came out of a corner but he also shot them in the head before moving.

The last 4 men led by a blond guy with glasses looked at all the corpses of their friends as well as their leader then seized by the fear of an enemy that they could not even see, they decided to run away. 

 The four of them ran but Calvin came out from a corner of the hallway in front of them and shot them down, three had been hit in the head and one was hit in the neck.

Calvin immediately leaned on one of the walls to breathe and after a moment's rest, he circulated around the building but apparently everyone had been killed.

He started gathering the bandits' weapons in the back of a pick-up covered at the back by a metal hard top where the vehicles were, he also took their ammunition, their canned goods and everything else they had.

 He loaded all the loot into the truck before starting the vehicle.

 There were a lot of walkers outside who had been attracted by the gunshots but he didn't care and pulled on the padlock holding the gate before rushing towards it, breaking it down and quickly getting out of there.
