"You found them like this?" Rick asked while I faced the door. There was a few seconds of silence and I turned back towards the problem.


Tyreese had found  me while he was screaming. It wasn't normal, scared, or pained. Tyreese was angry and the screaming, held the case perfectly. It was the angry screaming that would make me worry about everyone's safety.

He had gently grabbed my hand and stopped yelling. At first I thought he was going to breakdown right then but he just wanted me to follow him. I did because he was one of my people and somebody I trusted but he brought me to one of the corners of the prison.

Two bodies were laying on the ground. Two bodied that had burnt to the crisp. Tyreese claimed one of them was Karen, and it was. Female body with the same bracelet that she had. 

That was why me, Rick, Daryl, and Carol were involved. Somebody in these walls were murdering our people. One of our own is murdering our own people. 


"I came to see Karen...and I saw the blood on the floor. Then I smelled them. Somebody dragged them out here and set them on fire. They killed them and set them on fire!" Tyreese turned and got in Rick's face. Daryl and I weren't to far from him.

"You're a cop. You find out who did this and you bring em to me. You understand? You bring em to me." Tyreese told Rick and Daryl put a hand on Tyreeses shoulder.

"We'll find out who--" Tyreese threw Daryl's hand off of him.

"I need to say it again?" Tyreese asked Rick. It made sense in every way but I don't think Tyreese is in the head space to be dealing with this.

"No. No. I know what you're feeling I've been there. You saw me there. It's dangerous." Rick tried to tell him but it didn't look like Tyreese was gonna be calming down any time soon.

"Karen didn't deserve this." Tyreese said. Nobody deserves this--scratch that not many people deserve this.

"No." Rick reassuringly told him.

"David didn't deserve this. Nobody does." Tyreese said. Daryl put his hand on Tyreese's shoulder but Ty flipped out.

Tyreese turned around and ran Daryl into a fence. 

"Man, I ain't going nowhere till I find out who did this!" Tyreese said and Daryl put his hand out for us to stop. Carol and Rick backed away but I stayed a few inches from Tyreese.

"We're on the same side, man." Daryl told him. That was not gonna work. Nothing they were to say would work.

"Ty, can you listen to me?" I asked him.

"Your the best I know here. I want you on the case!" Tyreese yelled and then looked back at me.

"Okay, I promise to be on the case and find out who did this. They will pay, we can't have murders in our walls. It will not go unnoticed." I told him and looked around. Rick was keeping his eye on Daryl but Carol caught my eye.

Carol had fear in here eye, actual fear. Not fear from Tyreese but as soon as I said they will pay everything about her changed.

"Jessamine, do I get to do it?" Tyreese asked while looking back to Daryl. Tyreese had anger in his voice and I knew he would get to do something.

"We'll discuss when we cross that bridge. But right now we need to start the investigation and we need to do a proper burial for our people. For your Karen. But Daryl didn't do it. Don't take this out on him when there's a real murderer going around.--" I almost had him and he was almost lowering Daryl but then Rick couldn't just not say anything.
