The Motor Inn is lost, Carley and Lilly are dead. Everyone is terrified of Lee. Lee just might be broken beyond repair. However Clementine is not afraid to try and mend Lee's broken heart and mind.

The lonely country road was dark, illuminated only by the full moon. The road was occupied by only a moaning walker crushed beneath an old RV and a small group of survivors. Despite the walkers pitiful moans it was silent. However like many things, silence can easily be shattered.

"Do we need any more evidence than this!" yelled Lilly. Her voice pierced the group like a knife.

"Fuck evidence, stop treating him like this!" Carley replied coming to the defense of Ben; she knew even if he did betray the group to the bandits, he did not deserve to be exiled. 'Or whatever punishment is going through Lilly's head' Carley thought to herself.

"Shut up Carley, I've heard enough out of you! We're getting rid of this traitor once and for all, unless you have something to confess!" Lily hissed, her face turning red full of anger.

"Will all of you just shut the hell up?" Kenny's voice muffled out under the RV. His muscles straining to pull the walker stuck between the RV's wheel.

'This is insane, the whole group is going to collapse and I can't do a damn thing to save it. Damn it there must be something I can do.' Lee thought. Despite how cruel Lilly was to Ben, Lee could not help but think he may be the traitor. Ben was very defensive when Lee asked if he was the one who broke the flashlight. His gut instinct told him that Ben was the traitor; yet he knew that Lilly would drag Carley into this as well, and Lee would not let that happened. Lee knew Lilly would not stop this madness until she put the blame on one of them.

"Ben, you have until that walker is dealt with to tell me it was her and not you!" Lilly growled menacingly. Her eyes flashed with anger.

"Stop this you're torturing him!" Carley yelled with anger.

"Ben!"

"Stop!"

"Stay out of this Carley!"

"I did it!"

Those three words were enough to put an end to the women's argument. They both turned, one in shock and disbelief, the other full of rage. Lee stood tall and with the best poker face he could manage look Lilly straight in her eyes. "Lay off the kid, if you want to blame anyone, blame me!" Lee's voice rumbled like thunder. Inside however Lee was asking himself what type of mess he got into now. He knew however that it had to be done, that he had to help rescue Ben and Carley from Lilly's interrogation.

"I think you can be a real piece of shit, but I know it wasn't you. Not with her in your life." Lilly yelled, pointing at Clementine. Lee glanced at Clementine, and knew Lilly was right. Perhaps Clementine was not his daughter by blood, but after all they've been through, all the hell they've seen that their new dark and bleak world had to offer, Lee could not help but think of her as his own child. And he knew that he would go to hell and back for her, he would gladly sacrifice his life if it meant she would live to see another day. Lee would never do anything that would endanger her life.

"Pl…please, l…let's just get back inside, forget all of this." Ben stammered, his voice trembling in fear.

"That's not happening, unless you have something to admit to." Lilly whispered in a calm yet deadly voice.

"You think you're some tough bitch, don't you? Like nothing can hurt you...but you're just a scared, little girl. Get the fuck over it. Take a page from Lee's book and try helping somebody for once!" Carley exclaimed. There was no way she would stand quietly, not without a fight to protect not only herself, but for Ben as well.

Kenny gave the walker one last tug and yanked it free. The last moments it saw was Kenny's shoe stomping on its already decaying head. "There, I got the little bastard." Kenny gasped, breathing hard after his struggle. Kenny shook his head and asked "Now what the fuck is the problem?" already knowing what he would hear next. He could never know how wrong he would be.

BAM!

The pistol echoed throughout the woods and in that moment the beautiful women known as Carley, was dead.

Everyone all looked in shocked, all but one that is. Deep inside Lee a demon sleeps, a demon so strong if it were to be unleashed all hell would break loose. Rage and hatred coursed through his veins. The last time it overpowered Lee it killed the senator who was having affair with is now ex-wife. Every time Lee snapped, every time this demon arrived it killed, and tonight would be no different.

"You bitch, I'll kill you!" Lee cried as he tackled Lilly, knocking the gun out of her hand. Lee slammed her against the RV, and began to unleash bone breaking blows. All Lee could see was a red haze, a red mist forming in front of Lilly; Lee was not in control anymore. He could not hear Clementine begging him to stop or Ben whimpering in fear. The only thing he could hear was Lilly's futile cries begging him to stop. However by then it was too late, his body was fueled by rage. The demon was in full control now, and it would not stop until Lilly was dead. The demon would stop at nothing to make sure she will never be a threat to their group again.

'No way, no fucking way. That… no…no. There's no way she's dead.' Kenny repeated to himself in shock and in horror. However there was no denying Carley's body lying at his feet. Carley, who rescued them all during their chaotic arrival to Macon, the kind and gentle woman who gave some of her rations to Duck and Clementine when they were hungry… was dead.

And Lilly shot her with no remorse, no hesitation what so ever. Her eyes were full of hate when she looked down at Carley's body. Kenny would never in a million years think she would snap like that. Most importantly, there was no denying that Lee, the one that always tried to keep the group together. Lee, the man who in Kenny's mind was always supported Lilly, was unleashing a brutal assault on her. Kenny couldn't say a word. The only thing Kenny could do was look down at Carley lying in a pool of blood. The only feeling he could feel was his whole body going numb.

It wasn't until he heard Katja and Duck yelling did Kenny finally began to get over his shock however, and made up his mind, this had to stop. Kenny rushed forward and grabbed Lee and tried to pull him off. However an elbow to Kenny's bruised ribs left him lying in the dust. All he could do was look in shock and horror as Lilly's face resembled Andy St. Johns face after the beating Lee gave him. For the first time since the beginning of his friendship with Lee, Kenny was truly afraid of him.

"Lee, walkers!" Clementine's shrill voice managed to gain Lees attention. Sure enough a group of twenty walkers were advancing towards them. The gun shot acting like a dinner bell to any walkers nearby. Lee knew that they had to leave now, or else they would all die here.

Kenny managed to pull himself up, and grabbed Lee again.

"We have to go now!"

Lee grabbed the gun, and what he would do next would scar his image of being a protector of the group. Most importantly it would make everyone in the group terrified around him, whatever doubt they had about him being a murderer would be erased forever.

BAM!

Lilly yelled in pain. She looked in horror as her jeans turned red with blood, her blood. She looked up to Lee ready to swallow her pride and beg for help, but the moment she saw his eyes her voice failed. Those eyes, once full of kindness and love were now full of hate. She knew no amount of begging would save her now.

Lee turned and looked at the others, their faces pale and shocked. Lee looked at Carley's body and saw that the small video camera fell out of her pocket from her purple jacket. It was the same one she offered to Lee after the horror at the dairy farm. Though Lee insisted that she kept it for herself, he knew that she would need it more than he would. He knew she still had nightmares of the pharmacy, especially Doug's death.

Lee bent down to grab it, to keep as a reminder of Carley. She was the only one besides Clementine who supported him without wanting anything in return, unlike Kenny or Lilly. Carley saved his life so many times, from rescuing him from the walker he tackled of Clementine, to shooting Andy St John; she even helped defend the group from the bandits who attacked the Motor Inn. The one time she needed to be saved and he couldn't do a damn thing to save her.

"Everyone, get in the RV!" Lee demanded, his voice daring any one to challenge him. Kenny wanted to speak up but he was not ready to fight Lee, not in the condition he was in. Kenny gently pushed Clementine up the RVs stairs. Ben was hesitant to get in, no one deserved to get eaten alive by walkers. It was Ben's worst fear to be eaten by walkers, the pain and anguish of getting your guts ripped out of you was enough to make any man cringe.

"What about Lilly, we can't just leave her like this?" Ben's voice barely managed to whisper.

"Her fate is already sealed; whatever happened next is her own fault! Now get in the RV Ben!"

"But…"

"Now!"

Ben took one last look at Lilly, her once angry yet proud face turned into a face one would see in a child. A scared little girl as Carley said, a scared girl who wanted to be in charge. Ben felt the guilt inside him eating him up, his mind was in shambles. He knew it should be him lying there dead; after all he was the one who traded with the bandits. It was his fault Lilly killed Carley. He knew that no one could ever know the truth. Ben knew that if the group found out he was the one trading supplies with the bandits, Lee would probably kill him. All he could do was get in the RV hearing Lilly's screams of pain and empty threats to them all.

"I'll see you in hell." Lilly muttered. Her body shaking in fear and anger as the walkers moved closer to her. She knew she was going to die one day, but not like this, not by Lee. Lee was the one who tried to save her father by giving him CPR. Lee was the only one who agreed with her that staying at the Motor Inn was the best choice. She knew her dad didn't like Lee, and he always warned her about him. She should have listened.

Kenny tried to reassure Katja while trying to start the RV up, before Katja and Duck would hear what would happen next. However fate would have other plans. A bloodcurdling scream was heard throughout the forest, the walkers got to Lily. And as quick as it happened, it ended with the moans of the hungry walkers. Though it lasted for no more than three seconds, that final scream would haunt the dreams of all that were present for many weeks to come. Kenny finally managed to start the RV and without a glance back, they took off into the night. All he could think about was what monster they had brought along. He was afraid what would happen if he knew that Duck was bitten. What would he do to him?
