II. | Tell it to the Frogs

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Yes, Glenn has said it like three times now Amy" Camila said as Glenn sighed

"Everybody is fine. Well, Merle not so much" Glenn said. Shane walked up

"Are you crazy, driving this wailing bastard up here? Are you trying to draw every walker for miles?" Shane asked

"I think we're okay" Dale said

"You call being stupid okay?" Shane asked as he looked back at Dale

"Well, the alarm was echoing all over these hills. Hard to pinpoint the source" Dale explained which got a look from Shane

"I'm not arguing. I'm just saying. It wouldn't hurt you to think things through a little more carefully next time, would it?" Dale asked Glenn. Glenn felt guilty

"Sorry. Got a cool car" Glenn said. Camila walked over to Glenn

"You're so lucky. Next time invite me" She told the man, who gave her a goofy smile

"This is a nice one" Jesse said as he analyzed the car. That's when a truck approached. The truck parked and out came Andrea. Andrea and Amy ran into each other's arms and cried. Next came out Jacqui. Then it was Morales, whos entire family came to greet him. Then T-Dog

"You are a welcome sight" Dale said before he hugged Morales. The two laughing. "I thought we had lost you folks for sure"

"How'd yall yet out of there anyway?" Shane asked

"The new guy- he got us out" Glenn explained. Camila's ears perked up at this. Fresh meat

"New guy?" Shane asked

"Yeah, crazy vato just got into town. Hey, helicopter boy! Come say hello!" Morales yelled as the sound of a truck door shutting was heard. It was a man wearing a sheriff's uniform. "The guy's a cop like you"

Shane stared at the man in shock. It seemed that the officer knew Shane. Lori and Carl looked over. Tears in their eyes. The man looked like he was gonna cry as he pointed to Lori and Carl

"Oh my God" He breathed out as he began walking towards them

"Dad! Dad!" Carl yelled as he ran towards the man. Camila's jaw dropped. The man took Carl in his arms as he hugged his son. Lori couldn't believe what she was seeing. Camila couldn't either. That comment she made to Lori, was a joke. It had become reality. For a moment she thought she might be psychic. Lori embraced her husband as she cried. Then she made eye contact with Shane, who was smiling at their reunion. But Lori looked upset at Shane. The man turned to Shane with a grateful smile










The group was gathered around a fire as the new guy, Rick, explained his experiences. Camila rested her head in Glenn's lap as she listened

"Disoriented. I guess that comes the closest. Disoriented. Fear, confusion- all those things but.. disoriented comes the closest" Rick explained

"So, like I don't wanna ruin the mood. I know we're all happy about this reunion but I feel like it's fair that I announce that you my friend have been-" Camila was cut off as Glenn slapped a hand over her mouth. The rest came out as muffles. It seems like he knew what she was going to say

"What was that?" Rick asked

"Words can be meager things. Sometimes they fall short" Dale said changing the subject. Rick nodded

"I felt like I'd been ripped out of my life and put somewhere else. For a while I thought I was trapped in some coma dream, something I might not ever wake up from" Rick said. Carl looked up at his father

"Mom said you died" Carl said. Rick looked down at his son

"She had every reason to believe that. Don't you ever doubt it" Rick told his son. Lori glared at Shane. The conversation had carried on but Camila tuned it out
