— THE WHOLE GROUP HAD BEEN IN straight panic mode, since the five boys had rushed off to find Randall and keep them all safe. They didn't know what they should do, so the lot of them locked themselves up in the farm house, waiting for one of the five men to return with hopefully, good news that Randall had been put down. Zoe kept ahold of Carl ever since they had arrived back at the house, there was no way she was going to let him out of his sight, not while her mom was concentrating on the others. She wasn't going to risk it. But, with how sneaky the small boy was, one sound of a gunshot in the distance, and Carl was gone, causing Zoe to panic more than she ever had before. "Son of a.." Zoe trailed off, looking in every single room upstairs to see if she could find him, but when he wasn't anywhere to be found, she knew that he had snuck off.. "For God's sake, Carl." She muttered.
Zoe didn't want to face Lori's wrath, in fact, it's the last thing she wanted.. So there was only one option, and that was to go out and get him. There was no doubt that he had run off to try and find their dad and Shane, so she didn't exactly have much choice in the matter than to go after him. If she could get him and drag him back home before their mom finds out, then it would be successful for Zoe. It wasn't hard to sneak out of the house without anyone seeing her, in fact, it had been too easy, with everyone preoccupied with worrying about Randall and the boys, Zoe had managed to sneak out within seconds. She knew that her mom was going to be pissed if she found out that not only one, but two of her kids had snuck off, so she was just hoping she could get back before she even noticed, or anyone else, for that matter. Zoe had forgotten her walking stick, in the moment only caring about looking for her brother, and she instantly regretted it the moment she set food outside of the farmhouse, feeling her ankle working up again.. But, in no time, she saw a little outline with the sheriffs hat on, with a tall man besides him, a few minutes from the house in the field, and she sighed in relief when she realised it was her brother and dad.
"Thank god." She sighed, finally making herself known to her family members, while Carl's eyes widened, Rick looked shocked that his daughter had managed to get all of the way out of here with her ankle. "You're lucky I don't murder you for sneaking off." She snapped at Carl, seeing his guilty face, before looking up at her dad, "I was meant to be watching out for him, he snuck off behind my back." She said.
"You should have stayed back at the house." Rick told her, not liking that she had come out here with her ankle how it is now.
Zoe scoffed, "What? And face mom's wrath at loosing Carl? No thanks." She told him.
"Shane's dead." Carl spoke up after his sister and dad finished talking, causing Zoe's eyes to widen at the news. She looked towards her dad for an answer, only to see him nod sadly in confirmation, but what Zoe could see that Carl couldn't, was guilt.
