Andrea had been grieving all night. The men were starting to gather all the bodies together to burn them and bury them. Although, she was refusing to give up her sister. People understood that she needed time to mourn the death of her late sister, however, it was time to part before she turned.

"Andrea, I'm so sorry - she's gone. You have to let us... take her." Lori urged nearing closer to the woman "We all cared about her and I promise we will be as gentle as we can."

Silence. The blonde woman was not going to give over. Especially in the state that she was in.

Sighing Athena looked towards Leo, who was sitting next to his sleeping younger brother. Both of them had been grieving about the loss of their older brothers all night too, but the older boy wasn't as sad as Jisung, considering he needed to look after him now. He didn't had time to be sad now.

At a distance, Daryl was digging his pickaxe into the dead people's bodies in order to ensure that they were not going to come back while T-Dog and Glenn shoved them into the fire. Their people were buried though - rightfully.

Athena's attention turned back to Rick, who walked over grunting, "She still won't move?"

"She won't even talk to us." Lori replied looking somewhat towards the ground "She's been there all night. What do we do?"

"We can't just leave Amy like that." Shane pointed out whilst sat on the ground, his arms resting on his knees as he stared forward "We need to deal with it. Same as the others."

"I'll tell her how it is," Rick said walking towards the girl.

Athena shook her head "No Rick-"

"Andrea-" Rick was cut off by the sound of her gun clicking off the safety and a barrel straight in his face.

Immediately, Rick put his hands up defensively and started to back off knowing that she meant business. If anyone touched Amy, they'd risk having their head blown off. "I know how this works." she muttered.

Slowly, the former sheriff backed away. "Alright. okay. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." he repeated until he was out of sight from the woman and her gun was down.

🏹🗡️

"Y'all can't be serious," Daryl grumbled, pickaxe in hand "Let that girl hamstring us? That dead girl's a time bomb!"

"What do you suggest?" Leo asked, placing his hands on his hips squinting at the huntsman.

"Take the shot." Daryl took a step closer to the boy "Clean, in the brain from here. Hell, Thena and me can hit a turkey between the eyes from this distance!" he remarked, pointing towards the side of his forehead, his fingers folded into the shape of a gun.

Athena shook her head "Hell no! Dad don't get me into this shit."

"No, for god sake's, let her be." Lori interrupted, sitting down with a glare evident on her face.
