Me and Carl run down the long, twisting hallway, and Negan's shouts echo throughout the building.

We could be next. What if we were?

They were the precise thoughts going through my head, we run out of the doors and end up back outside to where the group was standing, waiting for us to return.

"Run! Jump the fucking gates!" I shout.

"Why?" Tyreese asks.

"Negan killed Glenn." I say, and can feel a lump form in my throat, Glenn. He loved the adrenaline, the rush, the feel running from danger gave you, but the bastard took his life.

"Glenn." Maggie whispers, rocking back and forth.

"You know he loved you didn't you?" Beth says, wrapping Maggie in a tight, meaningful hug.
