Ellie and Stella had crawled over to the pile of pillows on the floor where they lay as the Greene girl cried her way into a short moment of sleep. Stella had been holding her shaking body in her arms, hoping to radiate just a bit of comfort, warmth, or security for her.
It scared Stella to see the girl like that. She was growing extremely worried and she wasn't sure if it was the greatest idea to tell Maggie, knowing that the two of them were in the same broken state and Stella didn't want to make the situation worse for Maggie.
The Grimes girl was abruptly awoken by someone shaking her gently. Her eyes flew open and within a second her fingers had wrapped around the knife under her pillow however she was quick to let it go as she saw that it was Levi who had woken her up.
"What's going on?" She whispered to not wake Ellie.
Levi nodded toward the door leading to the church. Stella stared at him in confusion for a moment as her foggy mind began to wake up completely. She stealthily crawled out of bed and was assisted to a stance by Levi's helping hand. As Stella stood up her eyes scanned over his face, desperate to understand what was happening. The boy's eyes were two worried dots on his face and sweat trickled down the side of his face.
The pair walked out to the main part of the church, stepping out into complete turmoil. The members of their group were scattered over the open surface. Some ran around panicked and some were peeking out the windows, their hands clutched to their weapons.
"What's happening?" Stella asked under her breath.
"Bob, Daryl, and Carol are gone," Levi informed her as he began to walk ahead.
Stella's blood froze. Her eyes darted around the room seeing the scared faces that had replaced the smiles from earlier when they were eating. Stella took a few quick steps after Levi.
"What do you mean gone? They left?" She asked.
Levi walked up to one of the church benches and picked up a magazine for his gun. "No one knows. Sasha says she saw someone in the woods. They think it's Gabriell's men."
"Where's Gabriel now?" Stella looked around.
"The other room. Started weeping after we confronted him. Pathetic." Stella could see Levi's shaky hands as his chest rose and sank rapidly. She wrapped her hands around his, making him show his movements down and look up at her.
"You okay?" She asked, two worried eyes traveling over his face.
The boy cleared his throat, trying to straighten up. "I'm worried about Daryl. He wouldn't just leave like that."
