~Mystery P.O.V~

I saw that girl, (f/n), walking with a boy from that group. I remember when that girl was in Woodbury, she was like a second daughter, a second Penny. I have to get her back, she will be my daughter, she will love me, not him.He is in the way of my happy ending with (f/n). She will learn to love me. I will have what I want, and what I want is her.

(Can you tell who it is?)

~Normal P.O.V~

I walked back into the main room to find everyone eating, and Carol making some sort of soup, regardless of what it tasted like, I gobbled the whole thing down, filling my once empty stomach. I smiled and thanked Carol for the meal, as I parted from everyone to go on a short walk. Before I could leave, Dad grabbed my arm."Where are you going? "I'm just going on a walk, don't worry, I'll be back around 10 minutes" I reassured him. He sighed"Ok, just be safe, k?" I nodded and he let go of my arm and I left the prison.

I walked down a dirt path through the forest, enjoying the fresh scent, and not seeing any walkers, anywhere. This worried me, but I also thought it was nice, because I didn't have to kill any walkers. I smiled as I crunched through the fallen leaves. I froze when I heard a crunching of leaves, not far behind me. They were very faint, but they were noticeable. I turned, thinking there was going to be a walker, only to find my friend Penny's dad, Philip. I smiled at him with a wave, and he hesitantly smiled back.

I walked up to him and briefly hugged him hello. I could tell he was surprised, but he returned the gesture anyways. I pulled away and I gasped. He had an eye patch covering his right eye, giving him a slightly hostile appearance. If I didn't already know him, I would definitely keep my distance. He saw my shock and chuckled."Fell while I was holding glass" He explained, pointing to his eye. I nodded in understanding, and he smiled."Doesn't hurt anymore, but I get looks, a lot" He smiled again, and I smiled back.

"How's Penny?" I asked, eager to know about my old friend. He tensed up, looking down towards his shoes, avoiding eye contact. I froze."n-no.. no n-not her t-too!" I cried, burying my face in my hands and sobbing quietly. He approached me and wrapped his arms around me, whispering gentle things in my ear like:"It's ok, it's alright, everything will be okay", etc. After a few minutes of helplessly crying, I looked up at him with my tear streaked face."H-how (hiccup) how d-did she?" I weakly asked him, wanting to know if she suffered.

"One snuck up behind her, took her by surprise, she didn't suffer though, the bite killed her almost instantly." He relied, seemingly reading my thoughts. I nodded, and we sat in silence, before I gasped. Philip's gaze snapped towards me, and I slightly panicked."I, I gotta go! Oh no.. I'll be in sooo much trouble!! Aww man!!" I freaked out, pulling my hair with my hands."Shh, calm down, I'm sure they'll calm down" He soothed, gently pulling my hands off my head."I'll see you later, okay?" I said, hoping he said yes.

"Yeah, I'll see you later" He smiled, and I returned it. As I was running away, towards the prison, I heard him walk away from the small clearing we previously occupied.
