Andrew was a touchy subject for Negan's wives. Most of them were fiercely protective of him, willing to hurt others to keep him safe.
They hear shouting in the halls, a woman ranting about the devil's reincarnation and making a lot of noise doing it.
They don't expect her to open their door and they certainly don't expect to see Andrew at her side, hand clasped of his left ear that was painfully twisted in the woman's hand.
The pulling of the ear stretches the scars on his mouth to a painfully thin line, some raw scabs breaking open.
None of the women are sure of what to do. Negan wasn't there to help them. But Andrew's eyes are pleading with them as he stands on his bare tip toes in hopes of relieving some pressure on his ear.
"What are you doing?" Sherry finally pipes up.
"This little boy is the devil, yes he is!" The woman shrieks. "Caught him kicking the stuffing out of poor Timmy!"
Timmy was an older muscular teen at the age of 17 who had a bad leg because of Negan. His real name was Joseph but Negan called him Timmy because of A Christmas Carol. He was known for making mischief and not following orders.
"Let go of him!" Alice demands.
"This boy is a psychopath and needs to be disciplined!" The woman cries.
Tanya moves to grab a gun that Negan had stored in the room. It wasn't used and nobody ever expected them to use it. It was for protection.
Tears leak from Andrew's eyes and a gurgle comes from his throat before blood dribbles down his chin and saliva dribbles out from the skinless parts of his cheek.
Sherry lunges forward and shoves the woman, wrestling Andrew away from her grasp.
"You bitch!" The woman squawks. "He needs a priest! Devil be gone!"
The woman grabs a hold of Sherry's arms but a click silences the room.
Andrew had taken the gun from Tanya and had cocked it. It was now pointed at the woman's head. He reaches up with his free hand to wipe away the blood from the hole in his face.
"Someone do something!" The woman cries. "He'll kill us all! I told you! I told you!"
"Shut up!" Andrew finally cries, spraying blood with his yell. "And let go of her!"
The woman yells back a him. Alice yells at the woman. Pretty soon, it's all out war with everyone screaming at each other, threats go flying.
"What in the ever living fuck is going on in here!?" Negan's voice demands, shaking the walls and startling the women.
The room goes silent and Dwight, who was at Negan's side, takes in the sight.
"You wanna tell me why Timmy has bruised kidneys?" Negan questioned the room.
"It was the devil child!" The woman screams, letting go of Sherry to shoves a finger at Andrew, who moves his gun to level with her forehead.
"Now, now. Let's not get hasty." Negan enters the room. "I wanna hear the story."
The woman rambles, most of it nonsense and blurts a few bible quotes before looking quite pleased with herself.
Negan then turns towards Andrew, who's arm was shaking from holding it out for so long with the weight of the gun.
"Kid?" Negan prompts. He was a little nervous because the suicidal kid had a gun.
"He was gonna hurt her." Andrew mumbles. "I had to stop him. You don't allow shit like that."
