The next morning Rhea, Maggie and Hershel had walked out of Hilltop.

Rhea was sure that Hornsby wasn't going to let that go, and he was going to come after them all, so she told Maggie that it was best for her send Hershel away and someplace safe.

"You have everything?" Maggie asked her son, as they walked out from the gates "Piggy Pig?"

Hershel rolled his eyes "I'm not a baby, mom."

Rhea snored in amusement "You'll always be her baby Hershel."

Maggie nodded "She's right."

They stopped walking and Hershel looked at his mother. "I don't wanna go." He told her.

Maggie sighed and looked at her best friend, then at her son "It's temporary. Okay? I promise."

"I wanna help."

Rhea kneeled down in front of him "We know you do, but it's dangerous. Just not this time." Elijah and Marco then walked towards them. "How far do you think?" Rhea asked them, as she stood up.

"12 miles south, give or take." Marco answered her.

"Should get there before dark if we move fast." Elijah told them.

Maggie looked down at her son "Then we'll be back before you know it."

Hershel just looked at his mother, and walked away from her, with the adults after him.

"CLEAR!" Xander yelled after searching in another room in the desolate house.

His fingers gripped every inch of the gun he was holding, a flashlight too so he could find his way around. This was the final house before they had to go to another place before 'home'.

Xander walked into the hallway and at the other end Daryl, Aaron and Gabriel were there.

"Hey, what's with the chit-chat?" Romano asked them as Xander wandered towards them.

Daryl rolled his eyes, holding his light up and making his way through the house with them behind him. "Man, we need a break. Been doing this for a while now."
