We all jump the fence and head in and Noah takes off running, he sees a bunch of dead people and Walkers. He grabs the back of his head and start to cry. Tyreese attempts to comfort him but it doesn't work. We all stand around watching our surroundings. I'm beginning to lose hope in any chance of finding somewhere safe to go. Michonne scratches her nose before saying, "I'll get them" she goes over and watches the Walkers.
Rick walks over to Noah and tries to comfort him, Noah's sobs don't even affect me. I'm so empty inside from losing Beth and Bob at the same time. We're losing everyone and it's only a matter of time till we lose everyone. We're all gonna die sometime and I don't want to die alone and be turned into one of those things.
"We can scavenge and see what we can find" Rick says, "Then what?" Michonne says before walking off. "I'll stay with him" Tyreese offers, Rick looks at me and he doesn't even have to tell me because I already know what he wants, "Yeah, I got them" is all I say in reply.
Rick gets on the walky, "Carol, you there?" he asks, "Yeah, we're all here" she says, "We made it. There's nothing left" Rick says and they head off.
Tyreese and I stay there with Noah and Tyreese starts to talk to him, "I wanted to die for what I lost. Who I had lost. I stepped out into a crowd of those things just trying to take it all out on them until they took me. Put them all in front of me so I didn't see anything. But I just kept going. And then later, I was there for Judith when she needed me. I saved her. I brought her back to her dad. And that wouldn't have happened if I had just given up if I hadn't chosen to live.
Noah, This isn't the end" he says. Noah looks up at me before standing up, "That's it" Tyreese praises him.
"Hey Noah, we should-Noah" Tyreese says as Noah takes off running. We both run after him, we stop in front of a house. Tyreese stops Noah, "Let me see it" Noah says, "Me first" Tyreese says taking out his knife. I hand Noah my knife and take out my bow before we head inside.
We make it to the first room and there is a dead, bloody woman on the ground. I think it's his mom, he walks up to her and kneels down before covering her up and whispering, "I tired to get here sooner. I'm sorry." I slide over to Tyreese and whisper, "Watch your back" before scanning the room for anything useful. Tyreese starts to sweep the rest of the house, I stand in the doorway so I can see both Tyreese and Noah.
Tyreese walks down the hallway to a door with a Walker behind it, I can hear it snarling and I can see its shadow from under the door. Tyreese takes a right and goes into a room, I can't see him. I glance back at Noah and take a few steps into the hall.
I hear snarling and then I hear Tyreese scream, I don't even think twice before sprinting into the room. I let out a cry as I see what happened, a Walker took a bite out of Tyreese's arm. I don't even think twice before shooting it in the head. Noah runs in and rushes to Tyreese, "Don't move, you'll be ok. I-I-I'll go get them" he says before running out of the room. I rush to Tyreese.
"You're gonna be ok. We can cut it off. You'll be ok" I say freaking out. Tyreese sits there and stares at the floor, I try to talk to him but he can't hear me. This room looks like a murder scene from all the blood and I look like the murderer from all of Tyreese's blood on me. "Can you hear that?" he asks me, "Hear what?" I ask. He looks at the radio, "It's not on" I say.
He looks at the wall hysterically, as if someone were there. I continue trying to talk to him but it's no use, he's out of it. Tyreese starts to scoot out from under the table, he stops and continues staring at the wall. He starts breathing heavily, he looks up on the bed. "Bob?" he questions. He stares at that same spot for a few moments and then his gaze suddenly switches to the doorway opposite me.
He must be completely blocked out because he can't hear a word I'm saying. He stares straight faced at the doorway, I get up to check if there is anything over there. I come back to see Tyreese struggling with a Walker. I quickly try to load my bow as he continues to struggle. He shoves his arm in the Walker's mouth before smashing a rock into its head. I load my bow and shoot it.
Tyreese falls to the floor and cries as he scoots back to the table. I rush back over to him and try to comfort him. He looks at the bed, "Beth?" he says and starts to cry. I can almost feel her presence. Is he seeing the dead?
He holds his arm and scans the room confused, his eyes land on me. I wave my hand in front of his face but he just stares. "What's my problem?" he asks looking at the wall. "Nothing. You'll be ok" I say.
