It had been at least another week at this point, Theo was finding it hard to keep moving, her being alone and only having a dog to defend themselves was hard when it came to big groups of walkers.

She was currently hidden under a large tree that had fallen perfectly on a bank to create enough shelter as the night fell.

She yawned as she stroked her new best friend when all of a sudden Saints ears went up before he began to growl.

She sighed, grabbing her knife and staying down.

She was so tired, but she had to keep fighting.

She couldn't give up now. Not when she mad a promise.

"Stay" She demanded only to hear one set off footsteps. A small growl came from around the corner from her before she stood quickly and stabbed the walker straight in the head.

She breathed out exhausted, tired and in desperate need of rest.

She fell to the ground and to her knees. Rubbing her head in tiredness.

Her lip shook as she was overwhelmed with everything, few tears falling from the dehydration, head dipped between her lap as she softly cried.

"Theo?" Someone spoke from behind her causing Saint to bark three times.

Her head snapped up quickly.

"Saint," She said sternly as her eyes met her fathers.

"Dad?" She began to cry before running towards him, throwing her arms around his neck as he held her close. Just like the first time they had been reunited.

She looked over his shoulder to see Carl and Michonne.

"Oh my god" She laughed before running to her brother and hugging him before hugging Michonne.

"Here boy!" Theo called so the dog ran to her.

"I thought, I thought you were all gone," She cried, holding her hand over her mouth.

"We thought you were too," Rick said before hugging her again as Carl ran towards them once again, holding onto one another like there was no tomorrow.

Crying into one another.

This was one of her core memories that was last a life time, she wished she could take a photo and hold onto it forever.

"Have you seen anyone else?" Theo asked, hoping to hear that one name.

"None of our own," Rick admitted. "We bumped into a gang, barely walked away" Rick nodded down to the dog, Rick looked at his daughter sadly. She looked exhausted, dirty and dehydrated. 

He grabbed the water bottle from his bag, passing it to her. 

"Where did you find him?" Rick asked with a smile, happy to see his eldest alive. 

"Before we get into that, where the hell is Judith?" She wondered, noticing the lack of baby whimpers or giggles as she took a sip of water from the water bottle. 

No one said anything.

"No" She shook her head confidently, but as no one said anything more, it had to be true. 

Her eyes closed, hands covering her mouth as she burst into tears.

"Are you sure?" She cried, looking up at her father.

"Pretty sure" Rick was honest, he didn't know if someone got her out, but even if they had, they couldn't even know if they would see her again.

"Did you finish the Governor off when I left you?" Michonne trying to get their mind off Judith.

Theo wiped her eyes before nodding.

"I mean, this woman shot him, but I did what I wanted to," Theo explained, making the group nod.

"Where were you heading?" Rick asked, hands on his hips.

"We were heading to Terminus, thinking hopefully our group would have the idea" Theo told them, wiping her tears.

"That was our plan, hopefully we find others." Rick nodded before hugging his daughter again, glad to have her back.

"So where do you get the dog?" Michonne asked as the group began to move out.

"He found me" She admitted "Saint's previous owner turned and left a note on him, he was waiting for me outside the shed I slept in for the first night after everything happened" Theo explained as the group continued to walk.

"What have you been feeding him?" She asked, patting his head as he walked closely to them both.

"Anything i can find, squirrel, rabbit, snake" Theo listed, shrugging.

"And you?" She asked, looking at her with a raised brow.

"I've been fine, i just wished i had my bat" Theo laughed

"Really" Michonne laughed

"Yeah well..." Theo rolled her eyes before stopping dead in her tracks. A street, with houses with a real roof and probably some running water.

"It's getting dark, stay here for the night and maybe tomorrow night and set out after, we can't be much further from Terminus, probably a 3 day walk from here?" Rick explained as they stopped in the street.

"I think take the night and leave tomorrow midday, we look through the building resupply and get going as soon as we can, we can't lose any more time right?" Theo shrugged looking between the others.

"Okay" Rick didn't argue, he knew his daughter was smarter than him, she knew what they needed and if that was to get to Terminus as soon as possible that's where they were going.

The group walked into the first house and to their luck they had no walkers waiting inside.

As soon as Rick hit the ground he was asleep, Michonne followed soon after as well as Carl.

Theo took the first shift of the night with Saint.

Sitting back from the window to watch out for walkers, or people.

As she did so she reached down into her bag for her water, when she came across a piece of paper.

Not remembering what it was, she opened it confused.

She unfolded the piece of paper only for another to fall out.

She picked up the small piece of paper, turning it over seeing that it was a polaroid.

Of her.

And Daryl.

It wasn't the one Theo had been given back at the prison, in fact she had no idea where that one went.

No. This one was a picture of Daryl and Theo sat opposite one another in the kitchen at the prison, smiling in their own world.

Looking at one another with the clear image of love.

She ran her finger over Daryl, missing him so much.

She placed the photo in her pocket, never wanting to get rid of it ever.

Leaning back again the wall, continuing to look at the sky, oping he was looking up at it too, alive and safe.

Glenn and Tara had spent their first day on the road together introducing themselves to know people. 

A large ginger man named Abraham, a small Latina girl Rosita and a man who believe to have the knowledge of what this whole mess was, Eugene. 

They helped Glenn and Tara to find Maggie and eventually Glenn was reunited with his wife as well as Sasha and Bob.

Daryl had lost Beth to people in a car after she ran out when trying to help him, he had spent the night running after the car, but lost it and instead found a group of men. 

The group of men Rick had come across a couple nights ago, but due to the lack of options, Daryl had to tag along and obey their rules.

Tyreese and Carol were now alone Lizzy had killed her own sister, Mika. 

She believed that the walkers were still people and was about to kill Judith also, Carol had no choice but to shoot her, breaking Carol's heart. 

As well as this there was slight tension between the two after Carol came clean to Tyreese about her killing Karen and David.

However, everyone was still on route to Terminus.
