Y/N's POV:

We all step outside the train as we look ahead and see the problem, a propane truck tangling over the edge of a bridge.

Kenny: Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! FUCK! FUUUUUUUCK!!!

Ben: Maybe we could walk?

Kenny: That's fucking stupid, Ben.

Ben: I'm just sayin...

Chuck: Hmm. I dunno; I ain't got much experience with yall's fortitude but we could probably deal with that. We got a goddamn train.

Kenny: That thing's not full of milk, Charles. That's gas or diesel; something that's going to explode.

Chuck: YOU gotta get ahold of yourself. This is a crew here.

Kenny: This ain't shit.

Chuck: This--

???: Yo, you keep screaming like that and you're gonna get your face chewed off.

We heard a man. We all look at the top of the bridge to see two people. A man and a woman.

Woman: Are you guys going to be trouble? Because we could've just kept walking.

Lee: No, we're friendly. (Kenny goes for his gun) Put your hand down, Ken.

Woman: That's what everybody says.

Lee: We know.

Man: Let's give these guys a break.

Woman: We'll see.

Man: You guys got a problem with your train?

Kenny: Yeah, you're standing right in front of it.

Man: Dude, it's a wreck. It's not so bad from up here. Send your buddy up to have a look.

Lee's POV:

I start walking forward only for Kenny to stop me.

Kenny: Anything goes sideways up there, we won't let them escape.

I then approach the ladder.

Me: If I come up there you better not be murderers or thieves.

Woman: I guess you'll have to find out.

I then begin climbing the ladder.

Man: A group of guys is what we need.

Woman: They're what you think we need. We're doing fine.

Man: For now. What about when?

Woman: Stop it.

I then reach the top and walk over to them.

Man: Hey dude, I'm Omid.

Me: Lee.

Woman: Christa. What's the deal with the train?

Me: We're driving it.

Omid: OH, MAN.

Me: I'm not going to bullshit you. Our group is a little fucked right now. We had a bite victim and then his mom took her life and before that, just...

Christa: It's okay.

Omid: Oh, shit! Goddamn, you guys have kids!

I turn around to see Y/N and Clementine.

Me: What are you both doing up here?

Omid: Do you know how long it's been since I've seen any kids? Shit! What's both of your names?
