I followed Rick through the path in the woods head down, nobody said anything after Ashley died. I looked up and sighed "where are we gonna go? I mean nowhere in this world is safe anymore" I said looking around me.

"We'll find somewhere"

Rick replied, I rolled my eyes in disagreement. Carl sighed and looked at me.

"Do you believe him?"

I heard him whisper in my ear, I shook my head "We won't find anywhere..... At least nowhere safe" I whispered back looking down again.

Something moved in the woods as we stopped aiming our weapons, but I kept my bow firmly gripped in my hand below my waist in case it was mistaken but a guy came out of the bushes heavily breathing.

I stepped forward a few steps aiming my bow with an arrow in it, I narrowed my eyes "who are you?" I asked not keeping my eyes off him.

"Who are you to ask me?"

He replied sharply, I shot an arrow through his shoulder as he tried pulling it out in pain "pulling it out is worse you idiot" I told him aiming another bow with an arrow at him "As I said, who are you?" I sharply said.

"I'm Logan, I have a town nearby here if you take this arrow out of me I'll bring you guys there"

He replied holding the arrow I shot inside him, I aimed my bow at his head, Rick put his hand on my shoulder notifying me he'll handle him, I nodded and backed away next to my dad, Daryl.

Rick narrowed his eyes "how many walkers have you killed?" he asked aiming his gun.

A girl jumped out of the woods knocking Rick's gun from his hand, I managed to shoot an arrow through her leg making her fall next to Logan, who was pulling the arrow "I wouldn't pull the arrow, again, its worse then it going in you" I repeated sharper this time.

"I've only killed about 20"

I heard Logan reply, I watched Rick still aiming my bow at the girl who looked terrified of us.

"How many people have you killed?"

Rick asked again, I noticed the girl was gonna shoot at Rick so I shot another arrow through her shoulder and shot the gun from her hand.

"STOP!"

Logan yelled at me, I shook my head and aimed it at him "Your not the boss of any of us, besides want an arrow through your head?" I replied sharply.

"Enough"

Rick said and looked at me, I sighed and backed up a little, Carl was aiming his gun at the girl, Daryl was just standing there protecting Judith.

"I've killed one"

Logan said at last, I narrowed my eyes in disbelief, he might be lying I thought watching Rick.

"Why?"

Rick asked the last question, I looked at Logan, he stared at me eyes with fear.

"Because she asked me too"

I got the thought that she could have been, Ashley, I widened my eyes "What was her name?" I demanded aiming the bow at him.

"Her name was Ashley"

I widened my eyes and walked closer to him "what was her last name?" I asked sounding worried.

"Ashley Dixen is who I had to kill, well make her sick"

He said, I narrowed my eyes and shot an arrow through his stomach, he coughed up blood.

"That son of a..."

I started to talk before Daryl could finish "I should have shot that arrow through his head" I sounded angrier than anyone in this group could EVER be, things will NEVER change will they?
