Before i had a chance to do anything, i heard the moaning of a corpse reanimating. Quickly, i drove the knife into Ricks skull. Down he went. "Rest in peace daddy,"

I helped Carl and Michonne bury Rick properly. They said a few words, and I left. I took whatever I needed from the two cars, including a bit of gas, and loaded into my car. Before I pulled away, Carl spoke up.

"Wait. Can we stay with you? You obviously know how to survive, and youre clearly not afraid of being out here. We have hardly anything left. A couple rounds for each of our guns, a bottle of water amd a small amount of food. We dont have anyting else. We need you."

I didnt say anything, just motioned for him to get into the car. He got into the passenger seat next to me, but Michonne didnt get into the car.

"Michonne? Get in the car."

"I can't kiddo, not this time. I need to be on my own now, youve got someone who seems like they want to look out for you, even after such terrible things have happened. You'll be alright, so i must say good bye. I love you like youre my own Carl, keep your hopes up, youll make it."

And with that, Michonne turned and walked the other way. Carl was speechless. I put the car in drive, and slowly pulled away.
