'The world is dark and broken, but we're not. Not yet. We stare into the face of death every day... until, one day, that face is our own. How do you come back from that? My dad wanted mercy to prevail over wrath. If we lose that, we lose everything. '

The next day they followed the map to the 'working site' that their friends were being held.
Daryl and Carol went to scout it from a distance before coming back to the group.
"Are they there? Did you see 'em? Did you saw Athena?" Leo rushed out, nervously picking his fingers.
There was this sickening feeling inside the buff man, that just worsened suddenly.
He couldn't imagine what they're doing to Athena. He knows his wife, and he knows that she wouldn't just let some people bossing her around, especially when their daughter was gone.
"Or Angel?" Blake desperately asked the Dixon man.
Daryl sighed, "It's bad. I don't think any of 'em are gonna make it."
Leo felt his breath getting caught in his throat. That can't be true.
"But you saw everyone." Gabriel blurted out confusedly.
"The adults..." Carol trailed off.
No sign of the kids?
Rosita looked at Carol and then Daryl "Coco, Hershel, Mira, the kids?" Carol sadly shook her head.
"But they have to be there. Right?" Maggie asked in disbelief, not wanting any of this to be happening right now.
Rosita didn't want to waste anymore time and neither did the brothers. Standing there and talking wasn't gonna solve shit.
"Okay, we need to go in now." Leo told them.
"We can't. There's too many guards. We'll never make it." Daryl quickly told his son in law.
"We gotta try!" Leo snapped firmly.
"She turned our home into a prison... after promising to give it back!" Gabriel also added. He sighed, putting his hand on Rosita's shoulder, but she shrugged it off.
"She never planned to give it back." Maggie told him.
Daryl looked like he had an idea "Wait. We can go in the sewers."
"I'll come with you." Leo said to Daryl firmly.
"Me too." Blake added, while firmly gripping his sword.
Daryl then signed to Connie "You, me, Leo, Blake. Shit tunnel." Connie understood and nodded.
"I also know a way to get back into our old house, but I need some backup just in case the guards have it blocked." Carol added.
