Sam kept wishing that every time that Marcus tried to fuel the gas tank it would come out full, however every time it was a disappointing outcome. Marcus advised Sam, "look no keys. That's how they got the gas. We need to find with those things still on it". Sam understood what Marcus meant but did not make any gesture, instead she wondered if this nightmare-like situation was ever going to finish.
After passing a handful of vehicles, Marcus stopped at a vehicle in which two corpses stood still. Sam couldn't quite recognize the bodies, or anything in that matter, in fact she didn't understand why he had stopped. Out of curiosity she came closer , as soon as she was almost side by side with Marcus strange noises emanated from the vehicle. Sam came closer and saw a couple or more like what was left of them. Behind them two of the biters slammed themselves against the window wanting to do to them what they had done with them what they had done with the couple. Marcus then suggested, "Sam, keep and eye on those little biters, would ya?" to which she replied quickly, "you don't even have to ask me twice" after smiling trying to comfort him, she knew he was worried about her daughter too.
Sam kept an eye on The vehicle praying so that the undead children would stay in place. She imagined to worst possible scenarios and gripped her leather bag even tighter now. She needed to keep herself safe but most importantly she needed to keep Angel safe. She wondered whether to give her a weapon, there must have been something the leather bag that she could use but she imagined Marcus reaction when he saw Angel with a butchers knife. She shook her head and decided it was better for her to take the guns and that maybe later she could convince Marcus into letting Angel have a weapon. She turned to look at the blonde and saw her being distant and distracted. When her father wasn't around she seemed much calmer and much younger, like a little girl that was just as afraid as everybody else.
After Marcus came back with some gas, he smashed the passenger window of the vehicle where the corpses awaited to get out. and he's gone... He's really lost it now she thought. Maybe the gas that he had put in his mouth had made him turn crazy now. Sam was surprised when he saw giving his daughter a pair or raybands, despite the weirdness that they had just been on a corpse who's neck was covered in blood it was still a thoughtful gesture, he's really trying was all she could think of. She wasn't as surprised at Angels reaction though, the blonde simply put the shades in desdain, still she smiled at her father. Sam simply starred at Marcus feeling sorry for him, what a shocker, but it was not as bad as i thought she would react she quietly laughed. This wasn't a funny moment, not at all but at these times she could use any type of humor.
She smiled at Angel and said, "they look good on you". But the blonde girl didn't hear, instead she starred back at Sam looking at her new accessory the leather bag, she asked, "what's that?" in curiosity. Sam was surprised and searched for what could possibly make the young girl curious. Her eyes stopped at the leather bag which made her nervous. She wasn't particularly good at lying and she didn't quite understood why would she even lie about it, but part of her wished that she didn't know that her new accessory contained a whole set of knifes and who know what else. She hesitated a moment before she spoke but decided to be honest, "It's just something I found in one of the cars we saw before. I just thought that a pair of knifes would always come in handy."She finished trying to sound casual as if it was the most normal thing to carry. Now you've done it, scare the little girl why don't you she asked herself. She stopped before she talked again, but before she did, she decided to open the leather bag to grab a much smaller knife, however it was sharp enough to cause some damage and to defend herself in case one of those disgusting creatures attacked her. She grabbed the first item that she could, it was a fighting knife, not a small knife... she thought but at the moment it seemed like the best choice. Sam grabbed the knife firmly, but for a moment she hesitated, finally she slowly handed the knife to Angel's hands.
"Take it" Sam finally said, she paused for a moment starring at the girl, with a face full of concern she continued "I know that you're just as scared as we all are, but I also know that you are a strong girl. I don't wish for you to use it but I also don't want you to be unarmed... "she stopped for a moment, she imagined Kim in Angel's eyes now, "we can't take that chance. I'm sure that you'll dad will understand. But.. for now don't tell him I gave it to you will ya?" She asked winking her right eye. She turned to see Marcus, and for a moment she stopped to hear the background the sound of the undead approaching, give us a break will you!? was the first thought on Sam's head.
