Daryl was on his motorcycle, while Aaron and Leo were in the car behind him.

After five minutes, they pulled over, and started walking into the woods.

Daryl was in the lead trying to find some kind of prints until finally he saw something. "Somebody came through here a while ago."

Aaron and Leo hurried after him. "If we see them, we hang back, set up the mic, watch and listen." Aaron explained them.

"For how long?" Leo asked him.

"Until we know. We have to know."

After a while Daryl turned towards Aaron "You sent people away?" Daryl asked him.

Aaron dipped his head, hopping over "Yeah."

"What happened?" Leo asked.

"It was early on, it was three people. Two men and a woman. Davidson was their leader. Smart as hell, strong. I thought they'd work out." the man explained "I brought them in and I had to see them out. So me, Aiden and Nicholas, we drove them out far... gave them a day's worth of food and water and left them."

Daryl didn't seem to understand their lenience "They just went?"

"We had their guns. We had all the guns. I can't make that kind of mistake again." he elaborated.

Suddenly, Daryl stoped in his tracks. He put up a hand, signaling for Aaron to give him the pair of binoculars "Pass me those."

A man was standing rubbing dirt on his face in a field. He had a vibrant red poncho and a backpack supposedly filled with supplies.

"What's he doing?" Aaron queried, getting out his own pair to see.

Daryl didn't wanted them to get spotted. They trudged through the field, keeping hot on the man's trail, not to lose him.

Opening his eyes, Rick adjusted to the light in the room. His face was cleaned up and bandaged all thanks to Blake, who to be truthful was too pissed off at his leader to even do that, but since Athena asked him, he couldn't exactly say no to her.

Sitting up, while groaning slightly in pain, Rick looked around the room and he couldn't help but let out a chuckle.

"What's so funny?" Michonne stood on watch all night, looking after the Grimes man.

"You were here the whole time?" He asked her in confusion, as he sit up on the mattress he was put to lay down.

"All night." She retorted, her voice serious. "What's so funny?"

"It's like the train car." He mentioned about all those weeks ago when they were in Terminus, locked up in the train car "After the whole thing, I'm still there."

"Deanna wanted you in here. Calm things down. Blake patched you up, but trust me, he was so angry at you that he wasn't exactly in the mood to help you." Michonne's eyes squinted into a glare "You should thank Athena that she talked with him, so he could parch you up."
