Months had gone by in the blink of an eye as Sabrina sat alone in her cabin, enjoying the silence.

After the passing of Caesar, Sabrina decided she was better off alone. That way, she couldn't hurt anyone. She felt safe, for the first time in a long time.

That was until Ares began pacing around the living room, growling loudly

"What's up?" Sabrina asked the dog, standing up. She walked over to Ares, opening the back door to let him loose

"A puppy!" A young girl screamed, laughing happily

Ares bared his teeth at the two girls, barking loudly

"Hey!" Tyrese shouted, running after the girls. He paused, "C-Carol?" He called, locking eyes with Sabrina

"What is it?" Carol asked, emerging into the line of sight, holding Judith. She gasped seeing Sabrina, "I-I.. We thought you were dead!" She said, rushing over

"Ares! Down!" Sabrina called, hugging Carol, "What're you guys doing here?" She asked

"The Governor destroyed the prison. All went up in flames. We grabbed the kids and ran." Tyrese explained, "I don't know what happened to everyone else."

"We've been walking for days!" A young girl whined

"You must be exhausted!" Sabrina said, "Come inside." She said, leading the group inside her house, "What, uh, what about Rick? And Daryl?"

"We don't know. I think they escaped." Carol said, "But we can't find them."

"Okay." Sabrina said, slowly, "There's plenty of food and water. I got the power running. Make yourself comfortable." She said, grabbing her bag. Sabrina filled it with snacks, guns, water and ammo, "I'm gonna go find Rick."

"You can't go out there." Tyrese said fearfully

"I have to." Sabrina said, exhaling deeply, "I have to." She replied, "There's a truck in the garage. It's full of gas. The keys are in the glove compartment. If something happens, take the car and go." She said, sliding on her black jacket

"Sabrina.." Carol said softly, "Thank you." She whispered

Sabrina nodded, walked out of the house. She exhaled deeply as she scanned the area for any signs of life. After a few miles, she noted a dug up patch up dirt. Sabrina used her boot to scoop up the dirt, revealing a duffle bag with weapons inside. She knelt down, rummaging through the bag quietly, "Rick's python." She said softly before she zipped the bag back up. Sabrina slung the bag over her shoulder, walking over to the fence. She watched in horror as men tied up Rick, Carl, Glenn, Maggie and Daryl before dragging them off. Sabrina squinted at the remainder of the people, trying to see if she knew anyone else.
Sabrina reached into the bag, pulling out a sniper. She exhaled deeply as she knelt down, pointing the gun toward a barrel of gasoline, "Here we go." She whispered, firing a few shots off until there was an explosion.

Sabrina stood up, carrying her bag and the duffle bag over her shoulder as she climbed the fence, groaning as she jumped, hitting the ground with a thud. She tied a bandana to the bottom half of her face, revealing only her eyes as she crept towards the abandoned factory where the group had been dragged.

Rick was leaning over the feeding trough, his head bowed as he watched the blood from the person beside him swirl down the drain. He squeezed his eyes shut, hoping for a miracle.
Rick groaned in pain as a man grabbed the back of his hair, yanking him up to force him to stare at the ceiling
