"We need to talk about Sam" Hannah says, as Sam shoots an arrow into a walkers eye. "From a friend" Jason reads, as the teenager says "I'm Andrew." "This all happens 'cause of Heather and Aiden" says Andrew. "I think you'll really like her." "So, now I help you" Andrew says, as they see the herd in front of the school. "Shoot" Sam shouts, as the group takes down the herd. "I'm Henry Richards" says a man, as Sam walks into the school. "Welcome."

The teenagers and adults stared at Sam, who had his eyes on all of them. They were silent, as they stared in fear at the blood-covered teenager, who had a look of anger on his face. "ANDREW" shouted a little boy, running forward and hugging Andrew, who had just walked into the school. "Hey Marcus" said Andrew, hugging the dark-haired boy, as Henry approached him. "We thought we had lost you" said Henry, hugging Andrew. "You didn't" said Andrew. "I'm not going anywhere" he said to Marcus, who smiled.

Andrew and Marcus walked to the teenagers, as William led the group inside. Henry looked at William, and saw all of the blood that covered him, and he looked disgusted. "If you're gonna stay here" said Henry. "You're gonna have to clean up a bit." Henry looked at the teenagers and children, and saw that they were disgusted by the stench the group had brought in, so he said "You'll have to clean up a lot, actually."

"Don't worry, Henry" said Andrew. "They'll listen to you." Henry looked at Andrew darkly, as William approached. "I'm William Hunt" he said, shaking Henry's hand. "This is my group. I guess you could call me the un-official leader." "You could call me the un-official leader of this place" said Henry, taking his hand away from William, who looked insulted.

Hannah approached, and said "I guess you can see that we want to stay." "Don't worry" said Henry. "You're not the first group of folks we've allowed in, but I believe I told Andrew we won't be allowing others in, because of a certain incident a few months back." Henry shot a dark look at Andrew, who said "Mr. Richards, we didn't kill that entire group. They could come back, and we don't have the manpower to stop them. We need them here to help defend us."

Henry stared at Andrew, as Adam said "Sir, we're not bad people." "Sure, we've done bad things" said Hannah. "But, we will do our best to help you all" said Terry. "We will protect you" said Jason. "No matter what" added Vivian. Henry stared at them all, before looking at Sam, who had a dark look on his face. He then looked up at William, and said "I can't turn you all away, now that you know we're here." Henry then looked at Sam, and said "Welcome back to school."

"We've been here since the beginning" said Henry, as he led the group down a dark hallway. Teachers stood in the hallway talking, and the group saw weapons stashed in opened lockers. "We know how to defend ourselves." "All of you?" Sam asked, looking up at Henry. He stopped, and said "The ones that need to defend us know." "So, the kids don't?" asked Sam. "That's not what I said" said Henry. "You said the ones that need to defend you" said Sam. "It seems like you meant adults. The kids don't know how to use weapons." Henry did not answer this question.

"Plumbing works" said Henry. "In a way. The showers in the locker rooms work. You're allowed to take a shower twice every week, which isn't terrible." "Where do people sleep?" Sam asked. "You have a lot of questions, don't you?" asked Henry, looking down at Sam. "I just want to make sure this is a good environment not filled with liars" Sam spoke up. "Sam" Hannah said. "Back off."
