THEY ALL WALKED along the train tracks Valerie standing next to Tara while Eugene kept blabbing, "Are you serious?!" Valerie asked him. "I'm well aware, it sounds bananas." Eugene replied. "But looking at the fossil record, knowing what I know about this infection, you cannot say for sure it isn't what killed off the dinosaurs."

"I just..." Valerie brushed Eugene off and ran up to Glenn. "Glenn?" She asked, grabbing his attention. "What'll happen when we find Maggie? Are we all gonna split up?" Valerie asked, it's maybe a day or two, but they were friends-ish. "No. Truth is, I don't know what'll happen when I find her.I was thinking we could go with them to save the world." Glenn told her. "That might be our best option." She chuckled. Later that night the group took shelter in a clearing for the night. "So what's for dinner?" Val asked. "Hamburger Helper." The words rang through her ear like a goddamn gun, as a child there wasn't much to eat in Juliet's household.

Hamburger Helper was a very common place. Anyway, as Rosita gives the group dinner she catches Tara staring at Rositas boobs and she kicks Tara in the shin. "You're welcome." Valerie mumbles under her breath. "So..." She cleared her throat. "Uh, Glenn, you once said there was another kid in your group?" Valerie asked to change the subject. "Yeah, Rick's son; Carl." Glenn tells her. "For what you said, he sounded like a fun guy to hang around." Valerie says. "He was, he is." Glenn smiled at her.

That next morning something amazing happened. Eugene was continuing the conversation. "It's been rubbing me the wrong way is all." Eugene explained. "I'm an even-Steven type gentleman. You help me find the supplies, we'll share the battery and whatever juice we scare up, minimal as it may be. Deal?" Eugene asked the two ladies. It was good and well, fine even, but then Eugene's last few words didn't register, because of what was in front of him, in front of all of them. As it reads, top to bottom; "F O R  A L L  C O M M U N I T Y  F O R  A L L  T H O S E  W H O  A R R I V E  S U R V I V E
GLENN
GO TO
TERMINUS
MAGGIE
SASHA, BOB"

The sight of that sign made Glenn spring forward and he ran as fast he could, he made incredible distance and smiled at the possibility that his wife was so where he could walk to it made him very much happy. "Incredible distances to travel + his determination, why not?" Valerie breathed out before beginning to run in that direction herself.

The three people walk on train tracks. "I think we got a day's worth of water left. We're lucky it's cooled off a bit, but..." Rick was turning around to look at his son and his friend, when he sa3 them balancing on the tracks. "What are you doing?"

"Winning a bet." Carl answered. "In your dreams." Michonne retorted, as she and the boy continued their balancing. "I'm still on." Carl replied, moving his arm towards Michonne to try to get he off balance. "Spoke too soon, wise guy." Michonne said, chuckling at his failure. Rick smiled before looking at the two before walking to them, "This might go on a while. Maybe we can speed this up." He asked the two without saying it as a question. "Yeah, you're right, you shouldn't be fooling around." Michonne replied as if she was gonna pull out big adult talk. "We should probably — Carl!" Michonne yelled as a method of trying to get the young teenager off balance but instead just ending up losing her own balance.
