Sarita (Video Game)

"That's not the Kenny I know in there. I wish... I thought... I could save him."

- Sarita to Clementine about Kenny killing Carver. (Determinant)

Sarita is an original character who appears in Telltale Games' The Walking Dead: Season Two.

Location Unknown
Little to nothing is known about Sarita's life before or as the outbreak began other than that she was of Indian origin and that her family never really celebrated Christmas.

Location Unknown
There's not a lot known about her life after the first initial event of the outbreak, except that she saved Kenny, whom she had found taking refuge in a restaurant, one of the many abandoned and dilapidated establishments remaining in the post-apocalyptic world. Sarita found him in his depressive state from Season 1, and notes that he'd let his facial hair grow out and was exceedingly weak. From the point they met onwards, Kenny and Sarita have been very close, with Sarita acting as Kenny's rational and emotional side to situations very much alike Katjaa did in episodes 1-3 of Season 1. Eventually, they become lovers.

Moonstar Lodge
It is unknown how long after, when they found the ski lodge. The place where they met Walter, and Matthew. Upon their arrival, It is assumed that the two different groups became best friends. Sarita tells Clementine what she thinks about Matthew later on, commenting on how nice Matthew is when they first met, and the nickname Matthew gave to her. "...He calls me Rita." Sarita said. And Walter said that Kenny and Sarita helped him, and his partner built the lodge into what it is when Clementine and the cabin group reaches the place.

"A House Divided"
Sarita is first seen disputing with Clementine's group along with Walter and Kenny, asking if their intentions are to steal belongings from their residence at the ski lodge. Despite defending affirmations from members of Clementine's group about why they're there, Sarita does not place her trust in the opposing people until she sees Clementine reunite with Kenny, which brings both groups together. After everyone enters the building, another argument ensues over tension surrounding members of both groups harnessing weapons inside the ski lodge. Sarita manages to convince Kenny to lay down his rifle in order for the groups to settle their differences.

Clementine is later introduced to Sarita after she and Kenny had a heart-to-heart talk. Clementine also helps her and Sarah add the finishing touch, an angel or star, to the Christmas tree in the main area. While decorating the tree, Sarita confides in Clementine her worries about Kenny having become different over time, worries that Clementine can mitigate or confirm their need for stress. Sarita's troubles are shown to be more than paranoia after Kenny verbally lashes out at her and snatches a box of decorations that she'd insisted on carrying, though Sarita asserts that it was just his protective nature. Sarita is later shown eating dinner with Kenny and Walter on the right-hand side table, and is also present when the group defends the ski lodge against walkers drawn to the overpowered wind turbine, though she'd wanted to join Kenny in deactivating the haywire transformer. She is then held at gunpoint after Carver's group ambushes them.

If Kenny takes the second shot and Alvin is murdered because of it, Sarita is used as the bargaining chip against Kenny, and he resigns from his sniper position out of fear that she'll get killed as well. Sarita is then taken as a hostage back to Carver's survivor settlement along with the rest of the group (apart from Luke).

"In Harm's Way"
Sarita arrives at Howe's Hardware with the other cabin survivors and is seen comforting Rebecca after Alvin is summoned away on the first night. Several days later, after Luke is found, she watches Carver mutilate Kenny by beating him and the option to help Carlos restrain her is presented (if the player chooses this and fails, she will be knocked unconscious by Troy, similar to Clementine if she decides to help Kenny instead).

Although distraught at Kenny's injured state, she helps the group upon him awaking and escapes with them until stopped by Carver. After Clementine intervenes, the player is given the option to either leave with Sarita or watch Kenny kill him (if Clementine chooses to stay, Sarita will protest although ultimately leaves regardless).

At the end of the episode, she and the others cover themselves in walker entrails and walk out of Carver's community. After Carlos gets shot and devoured, Sarah alerts the rest of the group and the nearby walkers with her screaming. Sarita separates herself from Kenny when she tries to protect Sarah and Clementine from an oncoming walker. After Clementine kills off a few walkers, she hears Sarita cry out in pain as a walker bites deeply into her wrist. The player has the choice of killing the walker or chopping off Sarita's arm. If her arm is amputated, she will clutch what's left of her arm and let out a bloodcurdling scream as the episode ends abruptly. If the player chooses to kill the walker instead, she will stare at her wrist, which lost its skin, in horror.

"Amid The Ruins"
The episode picks directly after "In Harm's Way", when the player was given the choice to either amputate Sarita's arm or kill the walker that bit her.

If the player chose to amputate Sarita's arm: Sarita will be screaming after Clementine uses her hatchet to sever it. Sarita then screams wildly, which attracts walkers to surround and engulf her, biting her several times. Kenny will then rush over and save Sarita from the other walkers that were attacking her. Kenny will be aggressive towards Clementine for severing Sarita's forearm, and they are forced to leave Sarita behind or Clementine can put her out of her misery.

If the player chose to kill the walker: Sarita will panic at the sight of her infected arm but will make it out of the herd safely, following Kenny and Mike. Sarita is not seen again until Clementine, Jane and Rebecca reach Parker's Run, where a pale and tired Sarita rests on Kenny's lap. Bonnie mentions to Clementine about she and Mike talking to him to take care of Sarita but Kenny is angered, making the two back off. Clementine can either apologize to Kenny or say she tried to help, but Kenny will angrily rebuff her, saying that apologies don't matter. After saving Luke and Sarah (Determinant), Clementine can ask Bonnie about Kenny and Sarita. Bonnie mentions to Clementine that Kenny took Sarita into the tent. Clementine goes into the tent and sees Sarita, shot in the head to prevent reanimation.

"No Going Back"

Sarita is mentioned several times through the episode, especially about how she had talked about Kenny behind his back, and Kenny also mentions that she loved Sarita.

Killed By

 * Sarah (Indirectly Caused)
 * Zombie (Caused)
 * Clementine (Caused, Determinant) (Out of Mercy, Determinant)
 * Kenny (Out of Mercy, Determinant)

If Clementine cut off Sarita's arm her screams will attract walkers as she bleeds to death. Depending on what Clementine tells Kenny, Sarita will either be stabbed in the head to prevent her from reanimating and attacking Kenny or left to reanimate.

If Clementine killed the walker instead, Sarita will not die during the escape nor reanimate. However, she will be taken to Parker's Run and shot in the head by Kenny later after saying goodbye.

Killed Victims
This list shows the victims Sarita has killed:

- Sarita to Clementine about Kenny.

Sarita first met Kenny when she found him holed up in a restaurant some time after he is separated from Lee's group. From there, the two developed a very close relationship, with Kenny becoming protective of her. He has refused to tell her almost anything about his life before they met. He has been shown to periodically lash out at her angrily, though she insists to Clementine that it is only his protective nature. Sarita acts as Kenny's calm and rational side much like Katjaa did, trying to advise him against being reckless and rebuking him for snapping at her. After being captured and sent to the pen by Carver, she is distraught after Kenny is savagely beaten by Carver, resulting in the loss of his left eye. Sarita unsuccessfully tries to dissuade Kenny from beating Carver to death, and if Clementine doesn't watch Kenny beat Carver to death, she says the Kenny she used to know is no longer there, and that she thought she could save him. Regardless of the circumstances of Sarita's death during the escape from Carver's community Kenny is devastated at losing her.

When the group begins to walk through the herd, Sarah screams after Carlos is killed, and walkers begin to pile on Clementine and Sarah.

If Clementine decides to cut her arm off to prevent infection, Sarita staggers in pain and is bitten by more walkers. Clementine is visibly saddened and can axe Sarita in the head to end her suffering.
