BTW THAT PICTURE IS THE PEOPLE/CHARACTERS:)

Rosabeth's POV.

I can't believe I found my family.

"Mom?" Sarah says/asks, grabbing my leg. "Yeah sweetheart?" I say, smiling at her.

"Why didn't you come find us when you woke up?" She asks. I freeze and my smile falters.

"Honey, I couldn't find you, I checked at home and you weren't there, your stuff was still there. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to leave you." I say sadly. She nods and hugs me. I hug her small frame and laugh.

"Remember the first day of pre-school? You yelled at me for asking how your day was." I say, laughing. She laughs and nods. I pull away and look at her. Her dirty blonde hair is down to her waist and her usually bright hazel eyes, are now dull. Her usual dress is replaced with a shirt and shorts, her usual flats are replaced with combat boots, and her usual happy face is replaced with a face that has been through so much.

"Go and get daddy and tell him to come here for me?" I ask her, she nods and walks away. I frown, she'd usually skip away. I sit on the bottom bunk and put my head in my hands. Rick walks in and I smile sadly at him.

"What's wrong Rose?" He asks. I just look at my hands and smile sadly. "My daughter used to be so happy, now she doesn't even act the same. She doesn't skip, she isn't as happy as she was, she grew up without her mom for a little over a year, and she barely even smiles." I say with tears in my eyes. Rick sits next to me and hugs me rubbing my back. I start crying and hear someone clear their throat. I turn and see Dean.

I scoot away from Rick and wipe under my eyes. Rick gets up and walks out, Dean comes over and sits next to me and I lay my head onto his shoulder. He grabs my hand and I smile.

"You know, I remember when Sarah would be scared so we'd have to have the light on until she falls asleep. Then one of us would have to go in and turn it off." I say, smiling sadly.

"Yeah, now, she kills roamers, or walkers, without batting an eyelash. Killed someone without thinking until it was done, she did cry, but she helped protect us." Dean says. I sit there shocked, she is only 8, she shouldn't have had to do that!

While I was gone, the group found the armory. We are currently going to go and go through the Jail and see if we can get to the places we need to get to. Daryl, T-Dog, Rick, Glenn, Hershel, Maggie, and I are going to go, everyone else, they're staying. I quickly hug Dean, Summer, and Sam, then walk over to Sarah.

"Mom, you'll come back, right?" She asks. God she's so grown up. I nod and kiss her forehead and hug her. I smile at her and go to leave. "Make sure you stay by Aunty, Uncle, or daddy, alright? And if you want, you can stay by Carl, he's the one with the nice hat." I say she nods. I turn and leave with the others.

~~Small time skip~~

We are walking down the hall of a cell block and there are bodies everywhere. All dead. We turn a corner and see a two way hall. Damnit. We go left and walk some more. We turn another corner and there are walkers all in this part. We quickly turn and run back the way we came.

We lost Glenn and Maggie a few minutes ago and we hear screaming. We run to the sound and see a walker biting Hershel's lower leg. Rick kills the walker, he and Glenn quickly help Hershel up and we make our way to a locked door. T-Dog gets it open and we run in and we run in. After Hershel is on the ground, I kneel by his leg and pull his pants leg up. Rick takes his belt off and I realize what he's doing. He's going to chop it off. I grab his belt from him and tie it around Hershel's leg. Rick grabs the hatchet and quickly start to chop at his leg right under the knee while I hold him down. Once it's fully off Rick says he's bleeding out. I quickly rip my shirt off, leaving me in a sports bra, and try to stop the bleeding. Daryl tells us to duck and we do. He gets up and points his bow at something behind the group but in front of me and him. I hear an unfamiliar voice mutter a holy shit.

I look up and see that there are six prisoners in a smaller room. I grab my bow and point an arrow at one of the men eyeing me up.

"Best stop eyeing me up, you'll lose an eye, arm, whatever I choose to hit." I warn him.
"He's bleeding out, we gotta go back." Rick says. We get Hershel onto a makeshift gurney and I hop onto it and put pressure onto the leg. We quickly get back to the cell block and Carl opens the door. We stop and I jump off and leave them for a few minutes.

I go into my cell and wipe some of the blood off. I get back down to the floor level with some of the things I had in my cell. I hand it to Maggie and get my bow ready pointing it at the door we just came into with Daryl. They slowly walk in and Daryl tells them they are far enough.

SO I UPDATED FOR YOU GUYS:) ANYWAY I'M GOING TO JUST LEAVE THIS:)
