Lily ran downstairs with a bag of supplies. "I got everything that should be needed. Where's Luke?" Lily looked at Ben. "He's in the kitchen gathering food." Ben grabbed  a hold of his little sister. "Everything will be okay I'll protect you from scary monsters." Ben said in sign language. "We need to hurry. The walkers are getting closer." Clementine speaks as calmly as possible. "Right, Luke are you almost done?" Ben shouted in to the kitchen. "Yeah," Luke ran out with a backpack full of food and water. "let's go." The group left through the back door.

"It's going to get cold soon. We should stop by a shop a see if we can get some warmer clothes." Luke says as he points to a clothing store. "Yeah... that would be a good idea. Ben... don't you think so?" Clem asked. Ben looked at Clem then over to Ava. "Yeah. Don't want anybody to get cold and sick. Let's go." The group walked into the small shop. Ben pulled off his old thin jacket and put on a  gray hoodie and a blue scarf. Luke put on a brown, fur hooded jacket. Lily picked out some warmer clothes for Ava. A pink sweater with purple pants and a white scarf. Clem grabbed a men's over shirt and looked at it. "It reminds me of the one Lee wore." The over shirt was blue and buttoned up. Clem put it on. "That's a bit big for ya' don't you think?" Luke looked at Clem wearing an over sized shirt. "Yea... it just reminds me of my friend Lee." Ben turned and looked at Clem. "Yeah... it does." Ben grabbed a white shirt, Clem's size. "How about you put this on, roll up the sleeves and I'll cut the back off  a little so it don't drag the ground." Clem smiled at Ben. "Ok. Thanks." Clem took the shirt and walked into a changing room. She put the white long sleeve shirt on and walked back out. Ben rolled up the sleeves on the blue over-shirt then cut the back. "There... just the way Lee wore his." Ben smiled and so did Clem. "Yeah."

"We should get moving. Walkers will show up soon." Lily looked outside. "Yeah. You need anything while we're here?" Luke looked over at Lily. "No, I still have this hoodie, It'll do me just fine." Lily smiled slightly then turned to look back outside. "Okay then... we should get going." Ben said as he picked up his rifle. "Um...Ben... exactly... where are we going... I mean whats our plan?" Luke looked concerned at the younger male. "Um... hm..." Ben didn't know. "Wellington. Its cold, colder than here. Walkers have more trouble moving in cold temperatures." Lily says as she looks outside. "Oh...okay then that's the plan. We should go." Ben nods and looks over at Luke. Luke nods, "Yeah its goin' to be a long walk so we should get going as soon as possible." Lily speaks as soon as Luke stops talking, "Which is now. I can see walkers, their in the distance but we need to leave now.  Ben picks Ava up onto his back. "Let's go."

The group walks for a few days. They were now in Savannah. "Oh no..." Clem looks down at the ground and stops walking. Lily turns around and looks at her. "What is it?" She asks. "M-my parents were walkers here... and... and... Lee.... Lee is in that jewelry shop." Clem, trying not to cry, pointed at the jewelry shop she had left Lee in. Lily frowned. Ben turned around. "Did he... turn...?" Ben frowned at the girl. Tears streamed down her cheeks. "I-I only had one bullet... I was going to end it for him... he was so close to dying... I shot him but... I was shaking... I missed his head.... I shot him in the chest...." Clem covered her face with her hands. Luke looked over at the building. "Clem... Would it have made you feel better if you knew he was a walker?" Clem uncovered her face. "Yes. I hate the thought of him being one of them..." Clem looked away from the group. Ben handed Ava to Luke. "Watch her. I'll... go see if.. he's still there..." Ben pulls out a knife. Luke nods and takes a hold of Ava's hand.

Ben walked slowly into the shop. A walker laid on the floor with its head beat in. A baseball bat laid beside it. Ben looked over to the air conditioner. "Hand cuffs...?" Ben stared at the hand that had been ripped away from the body. "...Lee..." Ben took a deep breath and turned around. There was a small room. Ben walked into it. A walker laid on the ground. Ben stepped closer and looked at it. "Lee...?" the walker turned and looked at Ben. Ben gripped the knife harder. "I'm... going to end this... I'm going to do something -....something right.... You don't have to suffer any more." Ben took the knife and stuck it threw Lee's deceased head. Ben walked slowly out of the shop. He knelled down in front of Clem. "Its ok now. He won't have to suffer in this world anymore. He can move on now... and... be in peace." Ben looked at the small girl. Clem smiled,"Thank you...." tears filled her eyes. Clem hugged Ben. Ben stared at her in shock. Ben slowly wrapped his arms around her and frowned. "Yea...no problem..."
