It was the next day and the three Grimes boys and Michonne were on a run.

Rick had decided they were going to return to his hometown and search places where people could have been storing guns.

Xander sat in the back with his little brother, looking at the moving trees. Thinking about a curtain forest green eyed Dixon. Rhea was constantly in his mind, especially now because he knew that she was back at the prison with the same person that tried to kill her and that didn't sit well with him.

"Hey!" He heard and his head snapped up surprised. It was a man. "Hey! Slow down! Slow down! Slow. I'm begging you! No! Please!" The random hitchhiker yelled, but Michonne did not stop. "Hey wait!" The man shouted on the side of the road, waving his arms. "Please, help me! I'm begging you!"

They didn't get very far before the car started to slow down when a massive pileup of cars was blocking the road. Michonne swerved off the road before the car suddenly jerked to a stop. She pressed on the grass pedal on the tires were heard spinning furiously but they weren't moving.

Everyone looked towards Michonne seeing she was just as annoyed. She stepped on the gas harder, but it seemed like the car was stuck.

Out of no where, walkers popped up banging on the car loudly and trying to bite through it. Xander rolled his eyes.

"Cover your ears." Rick warned turning to them and they did as he said. He shot each walker through the single car window before getting out. The Grimes brothers followed after their father. They watched as he picked up some sticks and a rag "Yeah, this'll work."

"Tell me when." Michonne said with a nod, before she went back to the car.

"Hey. Put something under the car like this with a little gravel and sticks. It gives you traction." Rick explained to his sons, as the three of them crouched down in front of the tire.

"Wouldn't have to do it if she didn't get us stuck." Carl said which made Xander frown a bit looking over to the angry boy.

"Carl, she didn't mean for it to happen."

"Your brother is right. It was an honest mistake. Any of us could have done it."

Carl ignored them, rolling his eyes huffing at the sentence "Why did we let her come? She took you to Woodbury and you said she just split on you and Oscar died and you guys-"

"It wasn't that simple." Rick interjected "I asked her to come today. I didn't want to leave her at the prison if I wasn't there, not with Merle. That and we got common interests. For right now, we have the same problems. So maybe we can work on them together."

"Just for right now?"

"Yeah, just for right now."

"Hey! Help me! I'm begging you! Don't leave!"
