We Don't Die

Moving On

"Don't look." Derek approaches Clem and tries to help her up. "Come on, don't look." She throws his arms off of her and takes AJ and they walk away. The others stand there and stare at the devastation that has just occurred at the bridge. "I can't believe he's gone.." Travis says. The others gather around and hug one another. "We continue this journey." Rick says. The others look at him. "Jeremiah wouldn't want us to mourn or to give up. He would want us to keep going. We fight for his legacy!" Rick yells. The walkers head off to the sound of gunfire heard in the distance.

Two Days Later

Clementine wakes up and looks at AJ, staring at his picture that he drew. She gets up and approaches him. "I can't believe he's gone.." he says with a sad voice. She has no words but can only place her hand on his shoulder. He turns around and they hug. Derek comes in and they break the hug. "Did you find him?" Clementine asks. Derek shakes his head. "His body is gone. I checked the water, the shore, everywhere. It's just.. gone." Clementine frowns. "I hope he.." she pauses. "didn't come back as one of them." She finishes. He approaches her and hugs her. She buries her head in his chest and stops fighting the tears. He feels the tears drop onto him and he can't help but cry too. "As soon as I apologized, he goes. What the fuck has happened to us?" He questions. "It's like God has a sick sense of humor." He replies. AJ stands there still staring at the drawing. They break the hug. "Rick wants us to continue his legacy." He says wiping his eyes. She stares at him and instantly gets interested. "He says that Jeremiah wouldn't want us to mourn. Says that he would want us to continue delivering and becoming human again." Derek finishes. Clem wipes her tears away and nods. "We do this for him." She says firmly. They exit the house and leave Alexandria.

The Bridge

Clementine and Derek reach the bridge and they stare at the spot where Jeremiah made his final stand. "There's no blood, nothing. He wasn't bitten." Derek says. "Walkers pushed him off the bridge. The impact of hitting the water must've hurt and he most likely hit his head on something which could've killed him. Maybe he's down there and we just don't know it.." She says turning away. "I searched for him ever since the incident. I'm telling you, he's not there." Derek replies. She turns around and faces him. "I can't keep doing this without him. Him and AJ are the only ones that keep me going and without him-" Derek hugs her and she embraces it. "We have to move on. It's what he would have wanted." Derek says. "You're right." She says. "Lets make the life that Jeremiah would be proud of." She finishes. Clementine and Derek walk off together to create the legacy that Jeremiah would be proud of.
