Winter, Wyoming-2023

Winter arrived earlier than expected, the group traveled far than any person can. They weren't sure if they're in Wyoming or not, but Joel was positive they were. Cain's wounds have healed but will leave a scar, the events of Henry and Sam were long forgotten into everyone's mind.
They secluded in a hunter's cabin to ask for directions for Wyoming, when the hunter came back inside his cabin with his wife while placing his bow down while removing his hunting clothing. "And the gun." Joel order the man.

"Who the hell are you?" The hunter asked.

"Just someone passin' through." Joel replied as he step out of the shadows along with Rosalie and Cain. "Take the gun out, two fingers only, put it outta reach."

The hunter did what he was told and turns to his wife, "Why didn't you shoot them?"

"The gun's all the way over there." She replied, nudging towards the shotgun that was hanging on the wall. "They didn't hurt me, by the way."

"Yeah, I got eyes." The Hunter notice then empty bowl of soups.

"Yeah, I did." She replied. "It's cold out."

"Sir we're just looking for his brother." Rosalie chimed in.

The Hunter scoffed, "Well, I ain't seen him."

"I haven't told you what he looks like." Joel said.

" He look anything like you?"

"A bit."

"Then I ain't seen him."

"They got two girls with them." The wife replied.

Speak of the devil both girls walk down the stairs despite the adults commands, mostly Joel. "What did I just say?" He asked the girls.

"Yeah, I did. Joel, come on. They're, like, a thousand." Ellie spoke up.

"Who's this little psycho?" The Hunter asked, already eyeing Ellie.

"Never mind then," Joel replied, placing a map on the table while pointing a revolver at The Hunter. "I need you to tell us where we are."

Rosalie decided to sat down on the couch while Cain walk towards Rosalie as he sat down in front of her. Lately Cain has been very overprotective of her and would either sit or lay in front of her, the adult brushed this off as probably traumatized after what happen to Henry and Sam.

"If you got a map, why you lost?" The Hunter asked.

"Must've missed all the street signs in the enormous fucking forest." Ellie commented which made Callie chuckled.

"We're somewhere here. Exactly where? " Joel pointed at the map, "And your answer better be the same as your wife's."

"Did you tell him the truth?" The Hunter questioned his wife.
