The prison was quiet with no conversations going on. The group was sitting in silence eating unflavored oatmeal.
Xander was watching as his little brother was just staring at his food blankly. He was very conserned about him, he lost his mom too... but he wasn't there to see it, while Carl was. And he was a kid, that would take something from him.
Rhea and Daryl noticed the younger Grimes brother behavior and they were also very conserned about him.
From the corner of the cell Rick appeared, but no one yet to noticed until he spoke. "Everyone okay?" His voice boomed through the silent cell block having everyone turn their heads a bit in shock to see him.
"Yeah, we are." Xander answered his father. He watched as his father walked in the cell block, he wasn't even looking at his newborn daughter in Beth's arms.
"What about you?" Rhea asked him.
"I cleared out the boiler block."
"How many were there?"
"I don't know. A dozen, two dozen." Rick answered and everyone thought to themselves on how crazy it seemed "I have to get back, just wanted to check on the boys." Rick patted his sons backs and started to leave, but Glenn got up calling out to him.
"Rick, we can handle taking out the bodies. Okay, you don't have to."
"No, I do." Rick said and walked over to Daryl and Oscar by the stairs "Everyone have a gun and a knife?"
"Yeah. We're running low on ammo, through."
"Maggie, Xan and I, we were planning on making a run this afternoon. Found a phone book with some places we can hit, look for bullets and formula." Glenn told his leader.
"Rhea and I cleared out the generator room. Axel's there trying to fix it in case of emergency. We're gonna sweep the lower levels as well." Daryl told him.
"Good. Good." Rick said while the sound of his heavy feet walked towards the cells. He didn't look back. Didn't say he'll be back or again look at his children before closing the cool bars.
"Rick." Hershel called out, but the leader was gone for them to stop him.
"We should get going." Glenn said and signaled Maggie and Xander to come with him.
Xander looked towards Rhea and Carl and nodded at them as he left with Glenn and Maggie.
