Ellie and you both had happened to be out and about, hunting for food to bring back to Joel’s camp out.

You both were doing fine at defending yourself, killing everything off pretty quickly.

Until.. they got you. It was fast, just a little sting and then your body went lax with realization.

Ellie spun around, panting when she saw the bite mark. “Fuck.” She let out a pitiful whine, running to your side.

“I’m so sorry..” She choked out.

Ellie was not losing another person.
