I open my tent and squint my eyes at the sun as I step out.

I close my tent then walk over to Carol who is ironing clothes.

"Morning" I smile

"Good morning. How'd you sleep?"

"I couldn't sleep for a while but when I finally did I slept like a baby" I chuckle

She smiles

"Did you take my clothes? They were by the entrance of my tent and now they're not"

"Oh, yes sorry I did. I tried talking to you but you were out so I just peeked in and took your dirty laundry"

I nod

"Thank you"

"Your welcome" she nods

I walk away towards the others and see Glenn staring at his red car he got yesterday

"Hey" I say as I stand next to him

"Hey..."

"What's wrong?"

"Look at them. Their damn vultures" he says and watches as everybody strips his car for gas and parts.

I chuckle and look at them too.

"Too bad. It was a real nice car" I pat his shoulder

"Thought I could drive it for a couple more days.."

I chuckle again then start to walk towards Rick and Lori.

"Hey"

They stop talking and look at me, Lori looks annoyed and Rick looks sad.

They both immediately smile though once they turn and look at me.

"Hey, sweetheart. How are you holding up?" Lori asks

"Physically, better. Mentally, I'm falling apart" I chuckle slightly then look down

I start fiddling with my hands and Rick gently holds my arm and is about to say something when we hear a scream.

Everyone looks up and tries to see where it came from

"MOM!"

"CARL!" Lori yells and runs off

"DAD!"

"BABY!" Lori yells

A few more people run in that direction but I quickly run back to my tent and basically rip it open and grab my bow and quiver.

I start running with the others and throw my quiver on my back while running.

"MOM! MOMMA!" Sophia yells

I catch up with the others as we all run past the bushes and to the kids.

"It's ok. I got him, I've got him!" Jacqui says as she runs to Lori with Carl

Car instantly hugs Lori and Sophia runs up to Carol

Rick, Shane, Glenn, Morales, Dale, Jim, and I all run past them

We pass a few more bushes and see a deer laying on the ground and a walker eating into it's neck

We all stare at it pulling a piece of flesh out from the neck and biting it in its hands

Andrea and Amy come up behind us and gasp.

The walker slowly lifts it's head up then drops the mean and starts to stand up.

Rick quickly hits it then Shane, Glenn, Morales, Jim and they all take turns.

It falls to the floor and they continue to keep hitting it with their weapons.
