You had said goodbye to Nik and he sent you on your way. There were tears, many of them but eventually you built up the courage to say goodbye. You still remembered the path you were on when you left Alexandria. The house, the tree you slept under as it rained, the long road. Everything.

You didn't know how long of a trip it would be, you weren't very good with time. You pulled over on the road feeling anxious and sad, you knew you would never see Nik again. For all you knew you were driving towards absolutely nothing. Alexandria could be burned to the ground and you'd never know.

You let out a long sigh falling back in the seat. After pausing for a second you reached for your bag that was in the backseat, a long with a blanket. You grabbed the back digging for a snack like some crackers or chips. Digging through the bag you realized you had forgotten the snacks.

"Fuck" you muttered and tossed the bag back into the backseat, you put the car in drive and drove down the road looking for a house that could be holding food.

Eventually you parked the car in front of a small house that looked as if if was abandoned since the start. You had found your way in from the back door, eventually finding the small dainty kitchen. You went through the cabinets before finally coming across a bag of chips.

You let out a sigh and smiled tossing the bag in the air and catching it, "success" you turned to leave the kitchen and was met face to face with a walker. It scared you causing you to drop the chips and slam your body back into the counter and fall to the floor.

It reached for you falling onto you, trapping you under it. You used one hand to push it away and used the other to grab the knife out of you pocket, plunging it into its neck. Blood poured out onto you, "ew" you complained as you pushed it to the side.

Now your shirt was covered in blood making you feel and look like a complete mess. You grabbed the chips of the ground and angrily made your way back to the car, once you were in the car you tossed on a hoodie and your bandana around your mouth and nose to block out the smell of the blood.

You began driving down the road again eating some of the chips as you went. You began slowing down as you saw a group of 5 people fighting off some walkers. But they weren't just any people. It was Carl, Maggie, Glenn, Daryl, Michonne.
You immediately stopped the car causing the tires to make a screeching sound against the pavement. It caught the attention of them, they turned around to look in the direction of your car and your heart dropped.

This was it. You grabbed gun out of the cup holder and flipped up your hood so the only thing visible was your eyes and pieces of your hair. You jumped out of the car and began firing at the walkers, getting them away from the group.

Your heart beat against your chest as you got closer to the group. Carl looked at you in awe as you approached him, the last of the walkers were gone. You pointed towards your truck and looked at Carl trying not to blow your cover, he looked at the rest of them for the okay before looking back at you.

You gave them all a bleeding look but they all still seemed so unsure. Your heart was beating so fast you could feel it. You were standing right there. In front of them. After a year, when you're supposed to be dead. Tossing the gun to the side to try and make yourself seem more trustworthy.

"Keys?" Daryl asked, it was like music to your eyes to hear his voice again. You frantically looked for the keys but realized you left them in the car which was still running, you pointed your shaky hand at the car and he nodded. "Well come on" he said to the rest of them

Michonne, Maggie, and Carl all followed him, jogging to the car. Glenn paused looking at you with confusion as if he was trying to figure something out, you quickly turned away walking back to the car.

This was it.
