CHAPTER SIXTEEN,
six years.

SIX YEARS LATER

It had been six years since Rick Grimes disappeared.

They never found a body, making everyone assume the man was either alive or a walker.

Michonne, Daryl, Aiden, Payton, and Xavier never stopped searching for him.

Elliot was now seven years old. Judith was ten. Michonne had a baby boy, naming him RJ, Rick Junior. Maggie and Hershel both left to be with Georgie. Payton and Rosita were together. Carol and Ezekiel were very happy, as well as Henry, their adopted son. Xavier and Vivian had actually married. Enid and Alden were a thing as well. Jesus and Nathaniel were still going strong.

And the Dixon family grew by one more.

A little girl.

Beth Rishae Dixon.

The other name Carl picked.

Aiden screamed at the top of her lungs with Daryl clutching one hand and Michonne holding the other. Aiden had went into labor and Daryl rushed her and Elliot to Alexandria as fast as possible.

Aaron, Payton, and Siddiq were the other three in the room.

"Okay, Aiden, push." Siddiq said to her and Aiden pushed as hard as she could.

"You got it, Aid." Daryl encourages.

"This is your fault, Dixon! I wouldn't be in this place if you hadn't knocked me up again!" She screamed angrily.

"I get it, I get it. It's my fault." He said and her response was another scream.

"Maybe if you weren't so damn tempting I wouldn't be pushing a baby out of me!" She said. Daryl blushed ten shades of pink as Payton attempted not to laugh.

"Not a time to laugh, Pay." Aaron said to him.

"I know." Payton smirked.

After several hours of Aiden pushing, crying, and screaming she gave birth to a healthy baby girl named Beth. The Dixon family was ordered to stay home for at least a week so that's what they did. Aiden was back to working our after three days just like after she had Elliot.

Daryl, Elliot, Beth, and Aiden all lived in the woods. Aiden, Elliot, and Beth visited Alexandria, The Kingdom, and The Hilltop very often. They had a dog named... Dog.

Aiden had been teaching Elliot how to use a knife, as he was older and he needed to protect himself.

"Mom." Elliot whined.

"What, son?" She asked him.

"I'm too short to kill a walker with a knife." He said to her.

Aiden sighed, "you're gonna get taller, Elliot. I just need you to have a weapon so I know you're protected." Aiden said.
