Nick waited a long time and began to fall asleep, until he saw Clementine, Bonnie, and Mike come back. Mike was carrying two large gallons of water that he had found at the museum. Nick smiled as he saw the gallons of water. Before he could even stand up, he heard Sarah mumbling something. He looked over to her and saw the large horde of walkers from Howe's hardware make their way towards them.
"Shit, Walkers!" Bonnie yelled.
"How the hell did they get that close without anyone seeing them? Where the hell's Luke?!" Mike yelled also.
Clementine walked up to Kenny. "Kenny, we've gotta do something!"
Kenny thought for a second before picking up his crowbar and stood up. "You just keep that baby safe." He muttered as he turned around to face the horde. Nick watched as Kenny slowly walked towards the horde in anger. He was oblivious to what everyone else was saying. He felt Clementine moving his arm, which snapped him out of his dais.
"Nick! Help Kenny!"
Nick didn't say anything. Instead, he pulled out a hammer he had acquired from Howe's and walked next to Kenny, helping to stop some of the walkers. Mike carried the water and followed Clementine and Bonnie to the observation deck. Kenny continued to beat the same walker's head in, imagining it to be both Carver and Clementine. Kenny stopped out of exhaustion and Nick tried to pull him back.
"Come on, man, let's go!"
Kenny ran behind Nick as they followed the rest of the group. Kenny and Nick made it up the stairs and onto the deck. Kenny walked into the gift shop where Rebecca was about to give birth. He saw that Luke and Jane were standing next to each other. Kenny stared at them in anger.
"What the fuck is going on in here?!" Kenny yelled.
"Kenny, what's going on?" Luke yelled back.
"Rebecca's having the baby and you're weren't patrolling like you fucking said you would!"
"I'm sorry okay!"
Rebecca yelled in pain as the baby was on its way.
"Oh my god. I'm so sorry Rebecca." Luke said as kneeled down to her.
"Hey, if you want to help, go out there and keep the walkers off of us!" Kenny ordered.
Luke ran out onto the deck without thinking, leaving Nick in the room with Kenny.
"Hey, what can I do?"
"Keep the walkers off of us, don't worry, I've been here before."
Nick nodded as he ran back onto the deck to see everyone, but Clementine, trying to hold a steel gate shut. Nick noticed the cannon and looked at Clementine.
"Clem!"
"What, Nick?"
"Help me push this."
Clem and Nick pushed the cannon towards the door, but in the process, the deck collapsed taking Sarah down with it. Sarah was trapped underneath some rubble, while Jane was hanging on what was left on the deck.
"Jane! Help Sarah!" Clementine ordered.
"She's dead already! Help me up!"
Nick looked down at Sarah and back at Jane with a desperate look. Jane sighed and let go of the deck and fell down to Sarah. Jane tried to pull Sarah out, but she was disoriented by a piece of falling wood. Knowing Sarah didn't have any time left, Jane climbed up the collapsing deck, leaving Sarah to be devoured by the walkers. The walkers that weren't eating Sarah's corpse were trying to follow Jane up the deck. Nick was standing still, frozen in terror.
"We've gotta collapse the deck!" Clementine yelled.
Clementine looked to see the support panel holding the deck in place and signaled for Mike to pick her up. Clementine wacked the panel with a hatchet, which led to the deck falling. Nick almost fell off, but Luke grabbed the collar of his shirt. Nick balanced himself and looked down at the walkers eating Sarah's corpse. He closed his eyes in sadness and turned around to hug Luke. Luke hugged him back as Nick began to cry.
"Don't cry buddy, it wasn't your fault."
"What was the point of saving her? Back at the trailer park, we could've gotten away and she actually would've died for something, but now, it was for fucking nothing."
"Nick, calm down."
Nick stomped into the gift shop to see what the rest of the group was staring at. Nick's anger then turned into even more sadness as he saw that Rebecca's baby appeared to be dead. The baby then sprung to life, with Kenny wrapping it up in a blanket. Kenny hugged the baby in happiness. Nick sighed in relief, but walked back out onto the deck. He sat down with his back facing the building, observing the wilderness.
The day passed by quickly, at least in Nick's case. For the first time since the apocalypse started, Nick took off his hat to feel the cold breeze of the winter wind.
"Nice hair job." Luke said as he sat down next to him.
"Shut up, asshole." Nick said in a joking manner.
Clementine emerged from the other exit to the deck, looking upset. Luke stood up, confused as he walked over to her. Nick didn't care as he had too many things on his mind. After he heard Luke yell and curse, he stood up and walked over to him.
"What's going on?"
"Nothing, it's just, she's gone."
"Who?"
Luke sighed. "Jane."
"What? Like, really gone?"
Luke nodded and Nick kicked the empty garbage can. Kenny came out with Rebecca's baby and walked over to Nick.
"Hey, you need to get yourself together, because we're leaving at dawn."
"What? Dawn?"
"You got a hearing problem, boy? I said dawn."
"No, we should let Rebecca rest for a couple days, at least." Luke pleaded.
"I agree with Luke." Nick said.
Kenny looked at Clementine. "I agree with him too, Kenny."
"GODDAMMIT!"
"Kenny, where's my baby?" Rebecca weakly yelled.
Kenny sighed as he turned around and walked inside the gift shop. "Sorry."
Clementine walked inside the gift shop with Luke and Nick following her. Clementine and Nick walked over to Rebecca.
"You guys want to hold him?"
Clementine nodded for both her and Nick, but Nick wasn't sure about him holding the baby. Rebecca handed Clementine the baby and she smiled as she looked at the small child. She handed the baby to Nick and the baby began to cry. Nick panicked as he didn't know what to do.
"Here, hold him like this." Clementine showed him.
Nick held the baby like Clementine said and rocked it back and forth. The baby's crying ceased as it eventually fell asleep in Nick's arms.
"Here, I'm not good with them." Nick said as he handed the baby back to Rebecca.
"It's okay, you'll get used to him."
Kenny walked up to Nick. "Hey, get some sleep, I'll take first watch."
"Are you sure?"
"Crystal."
Nick sighed as he laid down on the floor. Clementine sat down next to Nick and felt bad for him about Sarah. He could hear Nick crying under his breath and she patted him on the shoulder. Nick felt better, but not much. Nick had to cry himself to sleep and he didn't feel ashamed that he had to.
