Recap
Glenn leaves the prison with a Woodbury girl, called Tara. They get out safely and run into the woods, when they reach the main road they have lost everyone and now they are on their own.
This is what Tara looks like:

Nobody's point of view "Let go of me!" Tara squealed, trying to wriggle out of Glenn's grasp

Nobody's point of view
"Let go of me!" Tara squealed, trying to wriggle out of Glenn's grasp.
"No, I don't trust you, your group killed a really important person in our group so until I know I can trust you- you aren't getting out of this rope."
Glenn tied up her hands securely with a thin rope and then let go.

"What is wrong with you? If I wanted to kill you don't ya think I would've done it by now?" Tara rolled her eyes,
"I don't know, but I'm not taking any chances."

They carried on in a straight route, walking across the main road. The rest of the group were probably long gone if they had taken cars, Glenn and Tara had got out late. Like everyone, they didn't know where they were headed yet, so they did stay on the main road for the rest of the day, until the sun started to set.

"Where we gonna camp out?" Tara asked, itching at the rope that was so tight it was slowly cutting into her skin,
"I don't know, why don't we find a cabin?" Glenn suggested, "Theres supposed to be one only a little while away."
"Sounds like a plan," Tara nodded.

The cabin was about two miles away, and when they arrived it was extremely dark.
Glenn picked up a piece of wood from the ground and used his lighter to make it a temporary torch.

Here is the cabin- recognise it?

Glenn slowly approached the cabin and placed his head next to the front door to listen for groans

Glenn slowly approached the cabin and placed his head next to the front door to listen for groans.
But instead of groans he was met with a pleasant surprise, the sound of talking, human talking. He could've sworn he recognised one of the voices too.
"You okay there," Tara whispered from a couple of meters away,
"Yeah... I think there might be people inside," Glenn said with a half-smile.
"Shit," Tara said, looking nowhere near as happy as Glenn was right now.

"What's wrong?" he questioned,
"Um... whats wrong? I would rather walkers, people are no good anymore, they are either cannibals or want everything you've got," she said sternly, "Its the exact reason I'm tied up right now, cuz deep down you know too, people aren't good anymore."
"My group are good, its your group that aren't," Glenn crossed his arms,
"Are your group really that good though... are they? We've all done bad things Glenna, its life now, admit it,"
"Don't call me that," Glenn spat,
"Why? U don't like it Glenna?" Tara said inching closer so that their faces were nearly touching,
"I have a girlfriend," Glenn blurted, "She calls me that and get outta my face, your not my type."

Tara smiled, then the smile turned into a fit of laughter, so hard she fell to the floor,
"Ohhhh Glenna," Tara said wiping away the tears that were forming, "Don't worry, your not my type either, I'm lesbian."

Glenn's face turned bright red and he looked away to hide it,
"Sorry," he apologised, flustered, "So we going inside or what?"
"No,"
"Why?"
"We can't trust anyone, especially in the middle of the night when they might mistake us for walkers,"
"Are you serious?"
"Dead. Serious."
Glenn rolled his eyes and groaned,
"So what we're camping the night outside?"
"I guess so, pucker up princess its gonna be a loooonnnggggg night," Tara smirked holding out her hands for him to untie the knot,
"No," Glenn shook his head,
"Well your gonna need my help if we're making a quick camp," Tara insisted.

Glenn thought for a bit and then sighed in defeat,
"Fine," he said cutting the rope, "But try to kill me and it'l be you who ends up dead,"
"Oooh is princess Glenna trying to be scary?" Tara teased,
"Mhm, keep pissing me off and ill tie you up again."

Tara motioned zipping up her lips which made Glenn giggle, they had polar opposite personalities but they were definitely going to get along well.

And incase you've forgotten who was inside the cabin, go and check chapter 38 (It was Michonne, Fleur, Carl and Rick)

Glenns point of view
The night was definitely long, to say the least.
Every hour we would swap who was watching and who was sleeping. For some reason it felt like I was watching more though, and I wonder why that was.
Tara was quite a handful, but she was good at getting things done. She managed to make our fire in less than ten minutes and found lots of long pieces if wood to make a quick den.
And I did feel safe in the end sleeping, knowing that she was watching. If I didn't find the group for a while, I knew surviving with Tara wouldn't be that hard. But my main mission was to find Maggie first, and hopefully she was heading in the same direction as us, west.

In the morning we packed up again and left the camp, we decided to follow the railway west.
It was easy, the railway only went on straight and that way we didn't have to check the map every few minutes because we knew we were heading the right direction.

And we just did that for days, we followed the railway all day then camped on it at night. Five went past, then six and not a single sign of anyone in my group. And I was slowly loosing hope.
The on exactly day seven, we came across a bridge, and on the side of it, spray painted hugely in red, was these exact words.

'Glenn, we are headed to Terminus- Maggie'
