(Everyone gets up pretty early. Elisa is already feeling better but she has to avoid using her hand which has not yet healed)
(They regroup in an area before leaving. Elisa sits looking at her bandaged hand)
-You're okay...?(Rick asks, looking at her hand)
-Yeah...(Elisa replies, smiling at him)
-Okay...(He said before joining Tara)
(They all go back to the Zenith. On the road a walker walks towards them)
-I'll take care of it... (Michonne said, hitting her repeatedly on the head with her gun)
(Elisa walks a little more, still inspecting her hand)
-How are she....?(Ask Daryl, walking next to her)
-Huh..?
-Your hand...Is it getting better..?
-It still stings....But it should be okay...
-It's going to leave a hell of a scar...(He said with a little laugh)
-Yeah...A big scar.... (She said with a laugh but being somewhere else)
(Daryl notices but doesn't say anything)
(Arriving at night, they decide to rest around a campfire. Elisa plays with Judith and Carl)
-I thought I was going to stay there. If Carol hadn't found me... Or if I hadn't woken up...(She said to Carl as she looked at Judith)
(Carl listens to her but doesn't say anything)
-He had... No emotion... He didn't regret or hesitate.... Does the apocalypse really make people like this...? So cruel..?
-People have always been like that I think.... But they couldn't do what they wanted because of the laws... There are none anymore... So they all went wild... Against the weak...
(Elisa doesn't answer and looks at Judith
(Judith touches the bandage on Elisa's hand, she points to her with a smile)
-It's a scar of loyalty...(Said Elisa, smiling at her)
(Judith smile at her)
-Sounds good.... Huh...?(Said Elisa laughing with her)
(Carl looks at them with a smile on his face)
-You seem comfortable with children...
-I took care of my little sister, I was very young....Maybe that's it...?
-And your parents...? Weren't they there...?
-Too busy wanting to separate I guess....
-Sorry...
-What for...? It's not your fault that my parents don't love each other anymore.... It's things that happen and it's on me that it fell....
(A long silence settles before Elisa hands Judith to Carl)
-I'm going to bed... (She said as she stood up)
(Carl stands up with Judith in his arms)
Hey...!
(She turns around)
