Something happened. Something big.

Daryl returned, without Carol.

But with Noah.

He knows what happened to Beth.

Everyone was leaving, except for Carl, Michonne, Judith, Gabriel and I.

As soon as we closed the doors, Judith started bawling.

Gabriel started scratching at something on the floor.

We had to destroy his church.

"What are you doing?" I asked, peering over his shoulder.

He ignored me.

Huh. I see how it is.

"Is that blood?" I sniffed.

Still. He ignored me.

"Jerk," I muttered, sitting down on the floor next to Carl.

I stole his hat.

Judith finally calmed down, and Michonne handed her to Carl.

Carl began to play with Judith.

"Will they come back?" I asked.

Carl looked at me, his eyes icy. I shifted.

"They better come back." He added.

I nodded in agreement.

Gabriel was now scrubbing with water at the blood on the floor.

"You need to know how to protect yourself. We can teach you." Carl said, walking over.

"Protect myself?"

"Yeah. You can't stay in one place for too long. It isn't safe." Carl answered.

Gabriel held a knife.

"Good choice. But you aren't holding it right, you have to drive it down. Sometimes the skull isn't as soft-" Gabriel cut him off.

"I-I'm sorry. I have to lay down." He heaved himself to his feet and walked to his office.

Michonne walked up after about thirty minutes of sitting around in silence, and opened his door. 

They began to talk and I tuned out and looked out the window.

"Hey," Carl said, putting his hand on mine, "You okay?" 

I shrugged. "Just worried about the group in Atlanta. I mean, they are going into another war pretty much." 

Carl blinked his blue eyes.

"They're gonna be fine," He chuckled and shook his head. 

I hear a crack. 

I look up. "What is it?" Carl asks.

He doesn't need to know about this. 

"It was just the church creaking," I lied, flashing him a smile. 

Carl rasied his eyebrows. "Really?"

"Really." I confirmed. 

Little did he know.

Little chapter for you guys!!! :)

Sorry if it's short. Last nights episode ended with the group in Atlanta, and it only had two scenes with Carl in it, so I tried to add a little twist on the end. 

And, (apparently) after the next episode, (I think) the crew is going on a break until Febuary. So I will be making up chapters, but somehow, they should slide back on course with the show. 

Thanks!
