After catching up Maggie, Rhea and Xander were talking with Daryl and Carol, when Maggie walked towards them with some men.

"Carol, Daryl, Rhea, Xander... Elijah and Cole. Hershel and I were living with their people until recently. We lost the village." Maggie explained to them.

"And now we need to live with you." Elijah clarified to them.

"I thought I'd take them to Hilltop." Maggie told them.

Rhea and Xander shared a look, before they looked back at Maggie. "Maggie about that..." Rhea trailed off slightly.

Maggie gave her a questioning look, taken aback by their sudden reaction, "What is it?"

"Hilltop... it was destroyed. By a fire." Xander explained, shaking his head "The whisperers, to be exact."

Maggie dropped her gaze, "Take me there."

The group had led Maggie towards Hilltop, with Dog leading them

The group had led Maggie towards Hilltop, with Dog leading them. Rhea and Xander left Corina with Gabriel and told them and go back to Alexandria and that they were going to be back soon.

The ruins of Hilltop revealed as they moved through the thick shrubbery.

Carol peered at the woman "Maggie. Negan was with the Whisperers. That night. I wanted you to hear it from me, because..."

"It was you?" Maggie suddenly asked, frowning "You let him out?"

"Alpha needed to die and Negan was our best chance." She tried to justify "We were gonna lose everything. Negan's the reason we didn't."

Rhea and Xander shared a look, before they looked back at the two women. They knew that Carol telling Maggie something like this would probably leave her slightly unhinged. It seemed almost impossible to make her change her mind about Negan and with good reason.

He was the one who killed Glenn and terrorized the communities.

Elijah's voice interrupted their thoughts "So what now? Everyone was supposed to go to... what
was it?"

"Alexandria." Daryl answered for him.

"So, we all go to Alexandria and we live next door to the guy who torched this place? Same guy who killed her husband. Is that right?" he inquired, his voice laced with some annoyance.
