.

We all were strolling through the woods. Daryl had found a trail that could lead us to them.

The man we caught was still alive. Sadly.

It lead us to an empty building.

We all had our guns out.

Suddenly two woman came around the corner.

Maggie and Carol.

I sighed relieved.

Glenn hugged his wife. Daryl hugged Carol and then I hugged her.

Maggie " They are all dead"

Dad to the man " your friends are dead. No one's coming for ya. So you might as well talk. "

Daryl " let him burn"

Yep, Carol had started a fire in the room where they were held.

Dad " I'm gonna ask you one last time...how'd you get the bike?"

Man " we found it "

Daryl " like hell you did"

Man " we found it."

Dad " was Negan in that building last night or was he here?"

Man " both. I'm Negan, shit head. There's a while word of fun that we can talk about, so let's have a chat"

I shook my head " no way in hell he's Negan"

Dad pointed the gun at his head " I'm sorry it had to come to this."

Then he pulled the trigger.

We were all back home. Everyone was doing their stuff. Daryl took his bike back home.

Carl came up to me and sat down next to me on the bed l " Daryl, Doc, Rosita, Abraham and Eugene went out on a run"

I nodded "kay, thanks for the info"

--------------------

Dad walked In "They are back. "

I nodded and walked with him out. They were at the infirmary . We walked inside.

Eugene was shot. And in his hip.

I looked at Daryl but he was staring out of the window.

Denise didn't make it back.

I walked out and saw Rosita standing there " how did she die?"

Rosita " the guy who shot you, the guy who took your blades and his Crossbow. "

I nodded.

Rosita "She died through an arrow"

I looked down " oh god"

She nodded.

I looked up " What's with you and Abraham?"

Rosita sighed " It's over. He was only using me"

I hugged her " dick"

She laughed " I'm over it"

I nodded " good"

Daryl walked out and away without looking at me.

Rosita asked confused " something happened between you?"

I shook my head" not that i know of"

Rosita " It's Daryl. He'll come around"

I nodded " but when?"

She sighed.

Me " You can talk to me when you need someone to talk to"

She smiled and nodded " thank you, Ken"

I nodded " of course"

She hugged me and walked away.

I sighed and walked home. I walked up to my room and there was my blades on my bed.

Me " Carl!"

He rushed into my room " what- what happened?"

I asked confused " my blades, what- what are they doing here?"

Carl " Daryl stopped by"

Me " he gone?"

Carl nodded.

I sighed.

Carl " You guys fighting or something?"

I shook my head " no."

Then i grabbed the blades " Hello, old friends"

I smiled at them. I looked out of the window and saw Daryl fixing his bike.

Then I sighed and sat down on the bed "He's gonna come around. He has to"

I felt someone shaking me " Not now, Daryl "

Michonne " I'm not Daryl "

I jerked up and looked at her. I looked at his bedside.It was empty.

Michonne " he didn't come home last night, did he?"

I nodded " Rosita told me what happened out there yesterday. "

Michonne nodded " I know"

I shook my head " He's blaming himself"

She nodded " get ready. You don't wanna piss off a pregnant woman "

Me " sure as hell not"

I got out of bed and walked into the bathroom and got ready.

I came out and saw Michonne sitting on the bed.

Me " couldn't keep it quiet last night, hm?"

I smirked at her.

Michonne's eyes widened " you heard us?"

I smirked " Well, it was obviously awesome"

She nodded " yeah but I'm not gonna talk about it. Let's go"

I nodded and we walked outside.

Maggie and Glenn were already doing the guns. I had a gun on my belt and one on my thigh.

And two knives and a machete on my belt.

Maggie " we'll have these, but we should hide a few. That way, we can find them but strangers can't. In case anyone gets in. "

Glenn " They won't "

Suddenly we heard a bike.

Daryl was opening the gate.

Glenn " What the hell is he doing?"

Michonne "something he shouldn't "

We ran to him but he already took off.

Glenn, Michonne and I got in a car.

Rosita got in behind me in the back.

Glenn " We should keep numbers here"

Rosita " I know where he's going"

Then we drove off.

-

We parked by a railway.

We got out. We walked to a spot. There was dried blood.

Rosita " That's where she died. "

Glenn nodded " all right, so he had to start from here."

Michonne " He did "

We looked at her. There was Daryl's bike.

Glenn" which way did that Dwight run?"

Rosita was still staring at the spot.

I put a hand on her shoulder " Rosita?"

She looked at us " we should let him do this. "

Glenn " but he doesn't know what he's doing"

I looked at him.

Glenn " maybe they keep knowing more about is than we know about them. Or maybe Daryl's gonna get himself killed."

He looked at me.

Me " which way did Dwight run?"

She nodded in one direction.

We started walking into the woods. We walked in direction high Gras.

Suddenly an arrow hit the tree right next to Rosita's face.

I took the arrow out.

Rosita snapped "watch the hell out, asshole"

Daryl nodded " I did. You shouldn't have come."

Michonne " you shouldn't have left."

He turned to us, snapping " when Ken and I split off from Sasha and Abraham, he was out there in the woods, in that burned - out forest with them girls, put a gun to MY girl's head..."

He pointed at me and i looked down ".... tied us up! I even tried to help him"

Glenn asked confused " so you think it's your fault?!"

Daryl nodded " yeah, I know it is. I'm gonna do what I should've done before. "

He turned around

Glenn " what , for her?

He turned back.

Glenn " she's gone, man. You're doing this for you."

Daryl shook his head " Man, I don't give a shit."

Daryl turned around to leave.

They looked at me.

I sighed and walked to him and blocked his way " Daryl"

He looked at me "get out of the way, Ken"

Me " you're getting yourself killed. You're gonna get your revenge but for right now we need you back home. They need all of us right now. Now please come back home. Our home."

Michonne " we'll square it. I will. I promise you. Just come back."

He looked at me and shook his head " I can't "

I sighed.

He walked past me but I grabbed his arm "Da-"

He ripped him free and yelled "" I can't !!"

Then he left.

Rosita shook her head " I can't either"

She walked after him.

Glenn asked me worried " Ken, you alright?"

I shook my head " let's go home"

We started to walk back.

Glenn " thing is, those men could be back In Alexandria right now. "

Michonne " if they are, they're dead."

Glenn " I hope not. We need them alive. We need to find out more. "

Michonne nodded " yeah, we do"

We walked to a little river. We stopped there.

Glenn looked back " We just got stuck with each other . We were lucky. We figured it all out together. I felt like we did. After everything, we did. The world's not what we thought it was. Hilltop, the Saviors, it's bigger."

Suddenly we heard a man whistle.

We pointed our guns at the direction. A man with a gun came out behind a tree.

Then another whistle and another man with a gun.

4 men came out. Then another man. The guy who shot me.

half of his face was burned and scared.

I whispered " That's him. The bastard who shot me."

He pointed the gun at me " Hi"

We let our guns fall.

They took our jackets and a few of them left with them.

Then they hit us with something and we Blacked out.
