- ???: Hey, kid. Get up.
Clementine wakes up and and recognizes the man's voice. He's kneeling over her. She get's a much better look. He's aged between late 40's to early 50's, stands 6 feet tall, average build and brown hair with a large beard. Instinctively, she searches her pockets for her gun but she can't seem to find it.
- ???: Hey! Relax! It's okay. You're safe now.
Despite the man's hospitality, Clementine still feels scared. She observes her surroundings. She's inside a tent, lying on a sleeping bag. She looks through the opening and notices the bright sunlight beaming through.
- Clem: Where am I?! Who are you?!
- ???: I'm Donald. After I found you in your car, you fainted. (chuckles) Thought I had just scared you shitless, but coulda been you were just hungry.
- Clem: Christa...My friend. Where is she?
- Donald: Don't worry about her. She's safe. So's the young one. (Reaches his hand out) Come. I'll show ya around.
Clementine looks at him for a bit before taking his hand. Donald pulls her up on her feet. They walk out of the tent and Clementine is stunned by what she sees.
Donald has taken her and Christa to a large settlement as big as a football field. The plain's a nice lush green. There are countless tents. Most of them big enough for more than 4 people. Clementine looks and sees that they are next to a lake with some kids around her age playing there. Donald gestures to her to start walking. They walk away from the lake, much to Clem's dismay.
- Donald: So as you can see, we got it pretty good here. We aren't too far from the water so fishin's not such a hassle. We got fishers, cooks, hunters, medics; basically everyone we need to make this work. I myself am a scout. I look for any folks tryna find a new home and take 'em here.
Clementine looks around and sees a group intimidating looking men, smoking and playing cards. She slows down. One of the men looks at her emotionlessly. She quickly catches up with Donald.
- Donald: Those are the hunters. Not friendliest bunch, I can tell you that. Best you stay away from them. We had an issue with the last group that went out but I'll tell you later. Actually, you didn't tell me your name.
- Clem: ...Clementine.
- Donald: Pleased to meet ya, Clementine. Ah, we're here.
Clementine looks and in front of her is a big, white tent.
- Donald: Your friend's in here.
- Clem: And the baby?
- Donald: Him too. Excuse me for takin' off on ya, but there's somethin' I gotta do. Go check in on your friend. I'll meet ya in there.
Donald walks away. Clementine walks into the tent. She sees Christa lying on a bed and another woman with hair slightly resembling Christa's sitting next to her feeding the baby a bottle filled with formula. Clementine walks up to Christa. The woman looks at her and smiles.
- ???: You must be the girl Donald was talking about. Hey there. I'm Anna.
- Clem: Hi. I'm Clementine.
- Anna: Pleased to meet you. You know, I can't imagine what you must've been through. A little girl like you delivering this little guy. Tells me a lot about you.
- Clem: Thanks.
- Anna: You know, I have a daughter about half your age. Maybe you can make some new friends?
- Clem: It's...it's been too long since I've been around people my age.
- Anna: Oh. I'm sorry to here that. Well, at least you got a new baby brother.
- Clem: Oh. Umm, she's not my mom.
- Anna: Well, where are your parents?
- Clem: ......they're gone.
- Anna: Ah, I'm sorry. I shouldn't asked.
- Clem: It's okay. Things happen. Now it's just me and her.
- Anna: Well, hopefully my daughter will grow up to be as brave as you.
Clementine smiles. Anna takes the bottle out of the baby's mouth and puts it down. She get's up and walks to Clementine.
- Anna: Sorry, I gotta go check on my girl. Can you just...?
- Clem: Yeah. (Clem gently takes the baby out of Anna's arms)
- Anna: Thank you, Clementine. I'll see you in a bit. Make sure you burp him, he's had a lot.
Anna walks out of the tent. Seconds later, Christa finally begins to wake up.
- Christa: (disoriented)...Clementine?
- Clem: (holding her hand) I'm here, Christa.
- Christa: What happened? Where are w--(Christa sees her Clementine holding her baby. She smiles before holding her hand to her mouth) Oh my God...
Clementine hands the baby to Christa. She takes a good long look at her newborn son. She embraces him. Clementine looks and begins to cry tears of joy. She wipes them off her face.
- Clem: What are you gonna name him?
- Christa: (Looking to Clem) You decide.
- Clem: Really?
- Christa: Go ahead.
- Clem: I was thinking about what....he suggested...
Christa's smile turns to a frown. She looks at the baby, then back to Clementine.
- Christa: Well, I can't think of anything better. (smiling) Omid Junior it is.
Clementine smiles. Donald walks in with two plates of fried fish.
- Donald: Oh good! You're awake!
- Christa: Wait...who are you? Clementine, where are we?
- Donald: No need to panic, ma'am. I'm Donald. I found y'all restin' up in a car and decided to take you to my settlement. I brought some food.
- Clem: (to Christa) You passed out after you had Junior. Then he found us. (to Donald) I'm sorry, but may I please eat? I'm very hungry.
- Donald: (grinning) Hmm. Nice to see that even with everything gone to shit, you still manage to mind your manners. The other kids can learn from ya. Here ya go.
Donald hands her the fish. She starts eating. He turns to Christa and hands her the second plate.
- Christa: Where are our guns?
- Donald: They're in the armory tent. Just for precaution purposes. Don't worry I won't let anyone touch 'em. Maybe when you're good and rested, we can take you on one of our hunts. We can always use an extra hand.
- Christa: ....thanks.
Donald puts the fish near the bedside table and exits the tent.
- Clem: Just wait'll you see outside, Christa! It's beautiful! There are kids my age! We're near a lake so I can go swi--
- Christa: Clementine.
- Clem: ....yes?
- Christa: Don't get too comfortable, here.

http://www.telltalegames.com/community/discussion/64234/the-walking-dead-nowhere-to-run-part-1
i saw it already lol it was amazing also. im just waiting for the next one
are you making another one? if you are, when?
Oh. Well, nevermind then. I actually stopped after part 2 of A Saving Grace since no one read that and part 1 after I posted them two weeks ago. But I came up with a way to continue the story and since you and try_not_2_cry read and liked them, now I feel more than encouraged to keep going on.
By the way, I have the next part planned out. I'm just trying to figure out how to end it. BUT, I promise you won't have to wait too long.
Again, thanks for the compliments.
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH! i love your story sooooo much i think there perfect and while im reading them its like im actually there! i will try to make people come her and real it, its just to perfect of a story!! please make more!!
@Tyler_Durant Take your time! It's hard to make that long story, but I appreciate your work. :]
@Dont_Look_Back Chill, I'll be come soon enough!
lol i know tyler can take his time, i just want him to keep making stories, im not trying to rush him lol
@Dont_Look_Back It's okay.
2 Fans 1 Story
@Tyler_Durant I think A Saving Grace is not so popular because of the awkard moment with Christa (xD)
But I want a continue of the story. Maybe @Dont_Look_Back can make a shout out of the story if she want.
i made a shout out in my other thread called: who would you day your telltale firend is?
maybe more people will come
Great story!! nice way to fill in the 16month leap keep it up bro
i got more views on this...
Can you teach me a few things about writing a good fanfic? I'm writing one but I would like to learn a thing or 2 from you. Here's the link to my story: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10153578/1/Absolute-Meltdown
Okay, so I took a look at your fan-fic.
I like it. You got a really funny and interesting idea going on; however, my only advise to you is this.
You've noticed that my stories are in a particular format. I explain an action in one paragraph, than I make a new paragraph for the next action.
Your story's engaging (every good story should be), but you need to use paragraphs. When people see an entire article or story all bunched up into one big paragraph, it just looks very unorganized and hard to read.
Oh yes, and also be sure to get to know the characters well so that you're writing realistic dialogue for them. Make Lee say what you'd think Lee would really say. Make Clementine say what you'd think Clementine would really say.
This was amazing, I was really into it. You did an awesome job with the whole thing, especially the dialogues, they fit perfectly with what the characters would say. Specially Christa. Im having hard time believing this was up for so long without me noticing. This was really good man, cant wait for the next part.
Thank's mate, from now on I will consider this canon unless TTG informs me otherwise.
Your story is very interesting! I can't wait to read more!
This "Anna" character IS supposed to be Anna Correa, right? If so, I'm glad she got a happy (ish) ending with her baby.
