When Carl visited me, he told me of where Maggie was. 


"You know," Carl tells me in my bedroom at the Sanctuary. "That Negan controls the place that Maggie's at." 

"Really?" I look up at him. "Negan thinks that Maggie is dead." 

"She hides." Carl explains. 

"Do you think I could sneak by and see her?" I beg. 

"I dunno." Carl frowns. "Listen. If you can get to Hilltop," 

Hilltop. 

Hilltop. I chant this name in my head. Ma is at Hilltop. 

"Negan sends a group once a week, usually it's Dwight that goes." Carl tells me. "If you tag along, look for a man named Jesus." 

"Jesus?" I repeat. "The man from the bible?" 

Peter once beat me with a bible. 

"No. His real name is Paul Monroe but everyone calls him Jesus. He has long hair and a bead like the man though. He is usually found wearing a beanie." Carl said. "If you can find him, tell him that you're looking for Maggie." 

I nod. 

Go to Hilltop. Find Jesus. Deliver message. 

I can do that.

"But I've trained a lot with Martin. I'll be okay!" I beg. 

"I don't feel comfortable with you heading out when you damn near blew your head off." Negan snaps. 

"I'll stay close to whoever you put in charge! I'll take Lil' Lucy with me to protect myself! I'll go as your right hand man! I'll go in your place to make sure that everything goes as it is supposed to." I beg. 

"And if there needs to order restored?" Negan challenges. "If someone needs to pay?" 

"I can deal with it." I promise. "I'll deliver order." 

"If someone has do die?" Negan presses. 

"I can do it." I tell him firmly. "You've seen me do it before." 

"You get the go ahead from Martin and I'll consider it." Negan nods. 

I didn't expect him to say yes. I wasn't sure if he was feeling guilty about hitting me or what. 

I perk up, grinning at him. 

"Why do you want to go that bad?" Negan raises an eyebrow. "Hilltop ain't nothing special."

"Because you're busy and I want to go explore." I tell him.

Negan frowns but eventually sighs. "You step out of line, you won't leave here again, do I make myself fucking crystal clear?"
