Riley looks over at Glenn and he could tell that Glenn was really upset about what happened to the girl back at the Motor Inn. "I'm sorry that we couldn't save her.…" He told him quietly and Riley did actually wish that they would have done something to save that woman's life.

Glenn glanced at him blankly and he bit his lip a little. ".....its alright.… It's not your fault…." He nodded his head a little before he looked down at the ground.

"Okay.…" Riley replied to him, sighing softly.

Soph looks at Lee with a gentle smile on her face. "So do you want to check outside, Lee?" She asked him, while pointing over to Doug who was keeping an eye out on the dead people outside of the drugstore.

"Sure…" He nodded at her.

Soph goes outside with both him and Doug and Lee has a look around at all of the dead people beyond the locked gate. How on earth did all of this happen? He thought to himself in confusion. What caused all of this to happen to these people? Just how….?

Soph looks at a post that had fallen and she could have sworn that one of those dead things was trapped under it. "Is that a trapped one over there?" She whispered to the other two and she pointed at the dead person.

Lee looks over at the trapped one and he realizes that it was his brother. "!!! Oh shit…!" He gasped in horror.

"What?" Doug asked him quickly.

"...He's one of the people who works here.…" Lee told them both honestly.

"You know him?" Doug nodded towards the trapped undead guy.

Lee didn't want either of them to know that it was his brother and he decided that he had to lie to them just this once. "...We were close friends.…" He lied to the both of then and both of them actually believed him.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, Lee.…" Soph told him gently and she was looking at him very sadily.

Lee sees that his dead brother has the keys on him to the office and he had to figure out a way to get them from him. "He has the keys…" He said.

Soph frowned a little nervously. "But we can't go out there.…" She murmured to him and she then gets the remote out of her pocket, staring at it and she was wondering if it would be useful at all to them.

Doug glances at the remote for a few second and he suddenly gets an idea. "Hey can I see that remote?" He asked her, she nods and she hands the remote over to him. "I could program it to work with those TVs  that are across the street. Let's just hope the power is still on…" He works on the remote and he was hoping that it would work for them. "...Now try it.…"

Lee grabs the remote quickly and he use it to turn on the TVs. "It works…!" Lee was actually surprised that some of the dead people were actually looking at the TVs and he was glad that Doug's plan had worked. "It got some of them to notice the TVs…!"

Soph sees that the dead people are not looking for too long at the TVs and she bit her lip in frustration. "But not for long enough.…" She murmured quietly.

Lee looks at a brick that was just outside of the gate and he tries to reach it; but he couldn't grab it from behind the gate. "I can't reach it…" He said in annoyance as he looks at the lock and he glances at Doug. "Do you know the lock combination, Doug?" He asked him.

"No.…" Doug replied honestly, shaking his head and Lee got out his axe to use it on the lock.

"Are you sure that you should use that, Lee?" Soph asked him quietly and she was hoping that he wasn't going to do anything that would risk getting himself hurt or worse…. Killed by those undead people….

"I'm pretty sure.…" He reassured her and he breaks the lock with his axe.

"Sweet…!" Doug grinned.

Lee opens the gate a little and grabs the brick quickly. He then stands up slowly and he throws the brick at the glass window, making it shatter to people.  More of the dead people all walked over to the TVs and they were not having their attention on Lee, Soph or Doug who were all still behind the gate.

"It worked, Lee…!" Doug cheered a little. Now you can go  and get the keys…!"

Lee opens the gate and he didn't really that his ripped half of his photo fell out of his pocket beside Soph; and he made his way over to his brother.

Soph looks at the photo that Lee had dropped and she picks it up slowly in her hand. "..…" She was very quiet and she gets the ripped photo of Lee's parents and brother out of her pocket when she got it from the office earlier. "Doug.…"

Doug looks at her. "Yes?" He asked her and he was wondering what she wanted to talk to him about.

"I think that's his brother.…" She nodded towards the dead guy who Lee was talking to quietly and she saw that Doug was looking at both of the ripped pieces of the photo, seeing that he realized that she was right about this.

Doug nodded a little and he was wondering why on earth Lee lied to them about his brother. "Yeah, I think you are right.... But I don't think that we can say anything to him about it, okay?" He told her and he didn't want any more drama between anyone else anyway.

Soph nodded her head in agreement with him  and she puts Lee's ripped off part of the photo back into her pocket. "Can you give this back to him when he comes back to us?" She asked politely, holding out the other part of the photo and Doug took it from her hand gently.

Doug nods, holding the other part of the photo and he put it in his own pocket as well as she had put the other one in hers. "Yes.…" He mumbled softly, looking at her and he was hoping that she was not be upset about what he was going to say or do next.

Lee looks at his undead brother sympathetically and his brother was groaning and trying to reach for him. "Hey, Bud... I don't know what happened to mom and dad, but I know.... If you were there, then you would died with them, so…. Uh.… Yeah, I'm going to assume that's what happened... I'm so sorry for what has happened to you, brother.…" He said sadily and gets up slowly, he kills his undead brother with the axe slowly and when it was finally over, he grabbed the keys quickly.

Doug kisses her cheek softly and he sees her blink in surprise at what he just did.  "I think I like you, Soph.…" He told her truthfully and he felt himself blush a little.

Soph blushes shyly at him. "I-- Lee, hurry!! She gasped in horror as she sees the dead people turning their attention back to them and Lee was rushing back over to them.

"!!!" Lee ran to them quickly and Doug closed the gate behind them; and he gets back inside the drugstore with both Soph and Lee.

"You can get the pills now, Lee.…" She smiles a little at Lee and Doug nodded in agreement with her, making himself wonder what she was going to say to him outside of the drugstore.

Lee walks over to Lilly and Larry and he was out of breath from running away from those things outside. "I got the keys…!" He told Lilly and he showed her the keys in his hand.

Lily was smiling and she was glad that they were going to be able to get the pills for her dad. "Great! God, Your amazing…! Let's get in there…!" She told him in a bit of a relieved tone of voice.

Lee walks inside of the office room with her and Lilly looks around the room, seeing the blood on the floor. Lee goes to the pharmacy door and he unlocks the door quickly; so that they could hurry up and get what they need from that room.

Lee opens the door up and he walks into the pharmacy room with Lilly, suddenly hearing the alarm for the room going off loudly. "Ah! Fuck!" He cursed in frustration at it going off.

Lilly was looking very worried when the alarm went off and she wanted them to hurry up and get the hell out of there fast. "Hurry!" She demanded and the both of them rushed to get the pills for Larry.

Thousands of the dead people heard the alarm going off and they all staggered slowly to the drugstore due to the loud sound. And now everything was going to go to hell for everyone in there….
Another chapter for you guys! :D
