An hour passed and Saphira got the things she would need at Atlanta, such as her gun and knife, in her car when she heard a loud alarm.She headed towards the RV since she wanted to get informed about the noise and what was causing it. When she got there, she saw Dale looking through his binoculars with Thomas on his side and Shane yelling over the noise to Dale as he wanted to know what was happening as well.

"Can't tell yet.." Was Dale's answer.

"Is it them? Are they back?" Amy asked with hope in her voice.

"I'll be damned.." Dale muttered.

"What is it Dale?" Amelia questioned.

"A stolen car is my guess..What do you think Thomas?" The older man asked, giving the binoculars to the boy next to him as he wanted a second opinion.

"Yeah..Seems like it.." Soon the noise was coming closer until a red sports car came into their view and parked in front of the group. The door opened revealing a very happy Glenn making Saphira sigh in relief.

"Holy crap! Turn that damn thing off!" Dale shouted.

"I don't know how!" Glenn said with a wide smile. Soon enough Saphira got a headache..The car alarm was still very loud when Amy started asking Glenn about her sister and Shane was telling Glenn how to turn off the alarm.. Glenn was trying to turn off the alarm and answer the non stop questions Amy was asking but ended up doing nothing as Shane stopped the alarm and Amy was still asking about her sister.

"Yes! Yeah, fine. Everybody is... Well, Merle not so much.." Glenn finally said. Amelia's eyes widened at the sound of her uncle's name and Thomas immediately looked at Glenn with a questioning expression on his face. But before the siblings could ask anything about their uncle, Shane started asking questions..

"Are you crazy, driving this wailing bastard up here? Are you trying to draw every walker for miles?"

"I think we're okay.." Dale quickly defended Glenn.

"You call being stupid okay?" Shane questioned as he looked at Dale now.

"Well, the alarm was echoing all over these hills. Hard to pinpoint the source. I'm not arguing. I'm just saying...It wouldn't hurt you to think things through a little more carefully next time, would it?" Dale explained to Shane and then scolded Glenn.

"Sorry..Got a cool car.." Glenn apologized as a big white truck came closer. Saphira quickly understood that inside the truck was the group and since her head was still buzzing from the previous noise she left, to go in a more quiet place. She was heading towards the lake when she heard Carl screaming 'Dad'.

"What the fuck?" She asked quietly and stopped walking. She didn't know what to think..Rick was dead. So, who did Carl call dad? She turned around and started walking towards the group.

"What the hell is-" She started yelling once she got closer but she didn't get to finish the sentence. Because what she saw left her speechless.. Carl was hugging.. Rick.. She was in shock.. Rick was dead..Shane had said so..Hearing her voice Rick looked at her shocked face and cried even harder. He was shocked too..He knew that he would find Carl and Lori. Maybe not in this group but one day he would. But Saphira? He never thought he would see her again.. Because for the past two years, she had been living in Washington. Lori and Carl let go of him and he quickly walked towards her. But she couldn't do the same..She couldn't move..She believed that it was a dream.. Only when he hugged her, her body and mind started working again. She immediately hugged him back. So tight that her hands started hurting. But she didn't let go of him. She just couldn't..

Flashback

1st Day

Only five hours had passed since Shane announced Rick's death. Saphira hadn't cried..But the scar on her face was bleeding non stop. The scar that was starting above her left eyebrow and was ending on the top of her left cheek. A scar her father created when Saphira was only fifteen years old..A scar that was inextricably connected with her emotions.. That was bleeding when her feelings were hurt.
