(Let me know if your enjoying the story, it helps me to write them more often😁)

===========================

Logan stood their and looked to all the dead people, he failed to save them, he failed again, Beth ran passed him bumping into him slightly, Logan felt the worst for her and watched as she cried over her mothers body, Logan then saw that it wasn't dead and went to grab her.

Logan was the fastest and pulled his knife out pushing it into her skull, Beth cried more this time grabbing Logan and not letting go, Logan didn't mind and let her cry it out, Hershel and everyone else huddled around her but Logan picked her up bridal style and took her towards the house while they followed him, even Shane.

Shane: We've been out. We've been combing these woods looking for her and she was in their all along?

Logan felt a sharp pain in his left shoulder as Beth held her arms tightly wrapped around him, Logan didn't care though and just continued to ignore Shane.

Shane: You knew.

Maggie: Leave us alone.

Maggie shouted back as Glenn followed them, Rick approached Shane and held his arm.

Rick: Hey, Shane, just stop, man.

Shane quickly brushed Rick's hand off him and shouted at him.

Shane: Get your hands off me.

Hershel was still in shock as he walked with Patricia and Maggie but Shane wouldn't leave this alone, apparently he hasn't done enough damage.

Shane: You knew and you kept it from us.

Hershel: I didn't know.

Hershel sounded defeated and broken as his voice cracked still trying to process everything that just happened.

Shane: That's bullshit. I think y'all knew.

Maggie: We didn't know!

Maggie defended as they got to the house, Logan still hasn't said a word while he kept Beth in his arms, Maggie opened the door for him and Logan took her to her room.

Shane: Why was she there!?

Hershel had enough of Shane shouting at him and turned around trying to get him to understand that they didn't know she was in the barn.

Hershel: Otis put those people in the barn. Maybe he found her and put her in there before he was killed.

It seemed to make sense and actually be a good point but Shane still wasn't buying it the door shut behind him though so Logan didn't hear what they were saying anymore, Logan just took Beth to her room so she can get some rest.

Logan: Try to get some rest, okay?

Logan layed her on the bed as Beth sobbed while nodding, Logan went to walk out the room but stopped when she called to him.

Beth: Wait!

Logan turned to her as she layed curled up on her bed.

Beth: Stay...

Logan couldn't leave her alone like this and agreed, Logan shut the door and sat on a chair in the room and waited for her to fall asleep, it took a little while understandably so but when she did Logan got up and went into her bathroom to see something.

Logan turned on the light giving him a better look as he pulled his shirt off over his head and saw the last thing anyone in this world wants to see, Logan's been bit...

===========================

Logan stood by everyone else as they all said a silent prey for the one's they've lost, Beth hasn't left his side since she woke up and Jimmy doesn't seem to like that, but who leaves their crying girlfriend to dig some wholes and burn dead bodies.

Logan is in the Farm house with Glenn as Beth won't let him leave, Logan needs to get out of here especially now.

Glenn was about to say something to Logan, they haven't spoke since they when't to the Pharmacy the other day but he could because Maggie walked in the room and asked him a question.

Maggie: So if your group leaves, you wouldn't stay?

Glenn didn't expect that and stuttered till he managed to get the words out.

Glenn: I... I hadn't really thought about it. I mean, I... I didn't know that... Do... Do you think this is really the time, to discuss this, I mean?

Maggie: Well, I'm not feeling like there's a lot of time for anything.

Logan stood up and left the room giving them some time on their own, Logan helped Beth with the dishes as once again Jimmy is nowhere in sight.

Glenn: No no, there... There is. There is. I mean, I-I... I want... 

Logan stopped listing and looked to Beth as she passed out Logan caught her before she hit the floor but the dishes weren't so lucky as she knocked them down during her fall.

Maggie: What happened?

Logan didn't answer her, he just picked her up and took her upstairs to lye her down again, Maggie followed him as Logan seen this before, okay it was in Iraq and they were being shot at but this is a state of shock and Shane caused it.

Logan stayed with Beth the entire time as she just stayed looking up at the ceiling, Logan wiped the sweat from his forehead as he could feel himself heating up, Logan knew that this is how it starts, this is how the fever gets you, it starts with the flushes and ends with a dead man walking.

Logan just sat back and waited for Beth to wake up, why this is so important to him that he says goodbye to her doesn't really make sense to him but he wants to say bye before he puts himself down before he hurts other people.

Maggie: Can't you help her?

Logan looked to see Maggie walk into the room, Logan sighed and tried to make it look like he's okay.

Logan: No.

Maggie sat on Beth's bed and held her hand as she looked to Logan confused.

Maggie: I thought you have medical training...

Logan looked to her as she must have misunderstood him because he has a small amount of medical training, not so much phycological healing more physical.

Logan: I can take a bullet out of you and stick it up but that's about it, this is way above my expertise.

Logan and Maggie sat in silence till Patrica and Jimmy finally showed up, Logan stayed though and waited for his coming demise that no one seemed to notice, Logan didn't listen to any conversations going on mainly because he's trying to fight off the bite he got.

Lori: Logan?

Logan looked up to her as she and Andrea looked to him.

Logan: What?

Logan leant forward running his hand through his hair as he wiped away the sweat in the process.

Lori: Can you go and get them...?

Logan didn't answer and jumped up, he walked out the room and to the room he's been staying in and grabbed his bag, Logan walked out the house and got on his bike then took off down the road and towards where Hershel, Rick and Glenn went to...

===========================

Logan got off his bike a little down the road because he saw a car outside the bar that doesn't belong to them, Logan pulled the barrel of his gun and walked into the room to see them all having a drink with two men that don't even know.

Logan: What's going on here?

Logan looked to Rick and Rick gave Logan a look that made Logan feel a little un easy so he kept his gun in his hand hidden behind his back,Logan leant on the door frame making it look causal 

Dave: Were just making new friends. Name's Dave, this is Tony...

Logan looked to a really fat guy, Logan looked him up and down as Dave asked him.

Dave: And you are?

Logan looked back to the guy sat on the chair as he thought about it and decided to play Rick's game.

Logan: Logan.

Dave grinned while moving his chair so Logan isn't behind him anymore.

Dave: That's a good name, a strong name. Logan...

Logan looked to see Hershel safe but he looked like he had a drink or two, Glenn whoever has not been in this kind of situation before as he is grinning ear to ear from meeting new people.

Dave: So what did you do before all the shit hit the fan?

Logan didn't answer him and walked to behind the bar still keeping his gun un-holstered and behind his back so they couldn't see it.

Dave: He doesn't say much huh?

Rick chuckled as Tony stayed behind Dave looking to Logan like he was his next meal the fat fuck.

Dave: Anyway. We got some buddies back at camp, been having a real hard time. I don't see why you can't make room for a few more. We can pool our resources, our manpower.

Rick heard enough and cut Dave off from talking putting his request straight in the bin.

Rick: Look, I'm sorry. That's not an option.

Dave and Tony didn't look happy to hear that and really weren't looking to take no for an answer, Logan moved his gun to resting just under the bar top as he poured himself a drink.

Dave: Doesn't sound like it'd be a problem.

Hershel: I'm sorry. We can't.

Rick: We can't take in any more.

Rick and Hershel shut him down, Dave really didn't like that and chuckled as he sat in the chair looking to Rick.

Dave: You guys are something else. I thought, ya know... I thought we were friends.

Rick didn't respond to him and Logan smirked shaking his head at the pathetic attempt.

Dave: We got people we gotta look out for too.

Rick: We don't know anything about you.

Dave: No, that's true. You don't know anything about us. You don't know what we've had to go through out there, the things we've had to do. I bet you've had to do some of those things yourself. Am I right?

Logan kept his eyes on the fat guy as he looked to Rick waiting for some kind of signal to put this sad sap out of his misery, do people really fall for this BS.

Rick didn't move though, Rick just looked to Dave as Dave took that as an invite to keep on talking.

Dave: 'Cause ain't nobody's hands clean in what's left of this world. We're all the same. So come on, let's... let's take a nice friendly hayride to this farm and we'll get to know each other.

Rick looked down to the shot glass he's been holding for the passed God knows how long while Dave really wants to get to the farm, Logan looks to Tony to see the big guy getting a little antsy so  he picked up his gun again and held it by his side being covered by the bar.

Rick: That's not gonna happen.

Dave: Rick...

Tony: This is bullshit.

Rick looked to the antsy big guy and told him.

Rick: Calm down.

Tony: Don't tell me to calm down. Don't ever tell me to calm down.

Glenn: Whoa.

Tony: I'll shoot you four assholes in the head and take your damn farm!

Rick stood up and was probably about to put the fat bastard down for a dirt nap but Dave jumped up and tried to calm the situation standing in front of Rick

Dave: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Relax. Take it easy. Nobody's killing anybody.

Logan watched as Dave climbed over the top of the bar, Logan discreetly out from behind the bar and stood again with his back to the door and a better shot on the fat asshole

Dave: Nobody's shooting anybody. Right, Rick?

Dave smiled to Logan but Logan kept a straight face.

Dave: Really doesn't say much does he?

Rick lifted his hands a little as Tony reached for his gun, Rick got on edge and Dave put his on the bar top, Logan never realised there's a shotgun under the bar.

Dave: We're just friends having a drink. That's all.

Dave looked under the bar for a drink as Logan kept his eye on Tony, while Rick faced Dave

Dave: Now where's the good stuff, huh? Good stuff, good stuff, good stuff. Let's see.

Dave then went under the bar and grabbed a bottle but Rick thought it might have been something else and put his hand on his gun ready for anything.

Dave: Hey, look at that.

Dave said showing the room a bottle of whatever it is.

Dave: That'll work.

Dave then opened the bottle and took out a glass.

Dave: You gotta understand... We can't stay out there. You know what it's like.

Rick: Yeah, I do.

Rick replied as Dave continued to pour glasses of the drink, Logan still held his gun behind his back waiting for them to make their move, both him and Rick are kinda hoping they don't though as this won't rest well on their consensus, then again Logan's dying anyway so why should he care.

Rick: But the farm is too crowded as is. I'm sorry. You'll have to keep looking.

Dave: Keep looking. Where do you suggest we do that?

Rick thought about it for a second and answered honestly.

Rick: I don't know. I hear Nebraska's nice.

Dave then laughed a little as he looked to Rick.

Dave: Nebraska. This guy.

Dave then made his move and went for his gun, Rick quickly shot him in his head killing him as Logan put on in Tony's head dropping the big guy, Logan could swear he felt the earth move when the fat fuck hit the deck.

Logan put his gun away as Rick walked towards him.

Logan: Can we go now, please?

Rick looked to him as he patted his left shoulder, Logan yelped in pain as they all looked to him confused.

Logan: Shane hits hard.

Rick took that answer as he knows Shane can fight but Hershel didn't believe Logan, Hershel can see Logan isn't feeling well but it too drunk to even know what it might be...
