It has now been around a year since the last time Lee has seen Clementine. Lee and Molly have grown closer than ever through at the year they have been together. The two people in question were jumping across a city, just trying to get past said city.

Molly's radio went off, signalling that Lee had something to say.

"Sometime around today is Clementine's birthday. She's ten years old, now." Lee said through the radio.

"Well, happy birthday to Clementine." Molly said as she leaped across a gap.

She had changed the jacket she was wearing before for a black fur one. It was still practical for her, and this one kept her warm.

"The amount of times we've come across people looking for wellington, even if that place wasn't real, the amount of people looking for it could probably make it themselves."

Molly chuckled at that as she climbed a building. She leaped off of it and caught onto a sturdy sign. She shimmed across it onto the building next to it. "You got a point there. So, how many bullets left in that magnum of yours?" She asked Lee as she jump across another gap.

"I have about thirty rounds for it, and about seventy three for my .45. Silencer is just about finished though." Lee informed Molly.

"How many bullets you got for my gun?" Molly asked as she leaped for another building and latched onto it with Hilda.

"The same as last time you asked, Molly. You hardly ever use your gun." Lee answered.

Molly blushed. "Oh. Right, yeah." She said sheepishly.

Molly finally reached the end of the city and climbed down from the building she was on. "I made it to the end of the city, Lee. How close are you?" She asked him as she walked towards the forest and climbed on top of a checking in station.

"I'm just about finished myself. You see the big tree in the forest?" Lee asked.

Molly looked into the forest and spotted the big tree Lee was talking about. "Yeah I see it. I take it you wanna meet up there?" She asked.

"Yep. See you in a bit, Molls." Lee said.

Molly sighed to herself, smiling at the stupid nickname. She was about to hop down from the roof when a walker came through a door that lead inside. She kicked it's knee, knocking it over and stabbed it in the back of the head.

"I better get over there." Molly said before hopping off the roof and dashing into the forest.


Molly was sitting on a branch of the tree waiting for Lee. She saw him walking over, so she hopped down in front of him and kissed him. "Hey~."

Lee smirked at his girlfriend. "Hey."

They kissed again before deciding they shouldn't stand out in the open and got a move on. They walked through the forest for quite awhile before they came up on a gas station.

"Hmm. Gil's Pit Stop." Lee said as he examined the place. "I think I've been here before. They had good chicken." Lee said before sighing. "Man I want some chicken." He grumbled.

Molly chuckled at her lover's antics before checking one of the restroom's out. "Euuuugh. That smell. Dead person in here." She said when she opened the door.

Lee and Molly got Annie and Hilda out just in case the dead person was undead. Thankfully they weren't. "She's been dead for at least a year." Molly said as she examined the dead girl.

"She was shot in the midsection before being stabbed in the head it looks like." Lee said.

Molly noticed a picture on the ground. It was a kids drawing of an orange cat, that had Clementine's signature on it. "Holy Shit." She said, her eyes widening in disbelief.

"Lee! You gotta see this!" Molly said as she stood up with the picture in hand.

She was grinning wildly.

Lee looked at her confused. "Yeah? What is it?" He asked her as he stood up from the dead body.

Molly showed him the picture. Lee's eyes widened. "Oh my fucking god." He said as he smiled. "Clementine was here?!" Lee said in disbelief.

"Looks like it!" Molly said happily.

Lee couldn't help but cry a little out of relief and happiness. "We're getting closer!" He cheered.

They hugged each other for a bit for deciding they should keep moving. "We're coming Clementine." Lee said with determination.


The ten year old Clementine was currently swing from tree to tree with Leeya in had. She had grown a lot since she was ten. She grew from 4 feet and 6 inches to 4 feet and 10 inches. Her clothes were a little small on her, but not annoyingly. They were still comfortable on her.

"See anything up there, kid?" Omid asked her as he and Christa followed her on the ground.

"Just more forest!" She answered.

Christa sighed. "Damn." She groaned. "We've got a lot more walking to do." Christa sighed.

Omid chuckled. "Well, you and I do. Clementine on the other hand..." Omid trailed off as they watched Clementine swing through more trees.

Christa snickered. "Fair enough, I guess."

A few minutes later, Clementine hopped down in front of Christa and Omid. "There's a clearing in the forest up ahead." She told them.

"Nice job, kid." Christa said, patting Clementine's head. Clementine gave no reaction as she started walking off towards the clearing.

Clementine was twirling Leeya as she walked towards the clearing when she heard groaning. Five walkers walked out of the forest. She stopped twirling Leeya and pulled out her silenced pistol. She shot all five of them in the heads. "There might be more so be careful." She told Omid and Christa.

Christa smirked at her. "We're supposed to tell you that." She said.

Clementine grinned at her. She held Leeya at the ready in case any more walkers popped out.

They made it to the clearing and walked through it. "Looks like there's nothing but more forest past this clearing." Clementine said after she climbed on top of a boulder to make a look out.

"We should keep walking until we find suitable shelter." Christa told Clementine and Omid.

Clementine nodded. "Yeah. I agree." Clementine said as she jumped down from the boulder. "Always keep moving." She said to herself as she kept walking.

Christa and Omid followed her.


A few hours later, they finally found a small house they could take shelter in. "Finally! Let's get some rest." Christa said after they made sure the house was secure.

"I'll take first watch." Omid said. "You two get some sleep." Omid told Clementine and Christa.

"All right, be careful." Christa said as she went upstairs to the room she and Omid claimed.

Clementine went into her bed, and pulled out a twinkie she found that was still good. "Happy birthday to me." Clementine said as she ate the twinkie.

Afterwards she went to sleep. "I hope I dream about Lee again." Clementine said to herself before falling asleep.


Lee and Molly walked through forest for awhile. Deciding to get some rest for the night when they found and secured a house.

The next day they woke up they headed out immediately. "We need to keep moving; find Clementine as soon as we can." Lee said as they walked.

Molly nodded as they continued walking. "I know we will find her. It's gonna happen, but it may still be another year off or something." Molly said.

Lee grumbled at that. "Better be only a few weeks. We've been separated too long already." He said.

Molly rubbed his back to comfort him. Lee smiled at his lover. "Thanks, Molly. I needed that." He said gratefully.

Molly smiled at her lover. "Anytime, Lee." She said as they continued moving forwards, both determined to find Clementine.

They had to kill only a few walkers. "Lee, back in that pit stop where we found Clementine's drawing. That dead girl, you don't think it was Clem who did it, do you?" Molly asked.

Lee sighed at the question. "Well, if she did, than it either was an accident or she had to." Lee answered.

Molly nodded. "That makes sense."

"Hopefully, my Sweet Pea is still alive and kickin'. I wonder what the world has made of her." Lee contemplated as they continued moving.

Molly continued to rub his back comfortingly.

After awhile of walking, the two come across a town. When they went up to, two people came from on top of lookout areas and aimed their guns at them.

"That's far enough!" One of them said.

Molly and Lee raised their hands up. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, man. We don't want any trouble." Lee said.

"Neither do we. You two don't look like bad people, what's your story?" The same one said.

"We've both been moving around for since it started. I met him," Molly said, jerking her head towards Lee. "A year ago. We're looking for someone." Molly told them.

Lee nodded along with Molly's answer.

"Why do I get the feeling you're hiding something important from us?" He asked them again.

Molly looked at Lee with concern. Lee nodded and motioned for her to tell them. "That's cause we are. My lover, Lee here. The thing with him, is that he's immune."

That got both the guards to be at a loss for words. "Prove it!" The other one said.

"Man how the fuck am I supposed to do that?" Lee said. "I'm not gonna go haul off and get bitten again, even if it doesn't effect me, they still hurt like a bitch." Lee said.

The first one lowered his gun slightly. "If you really are immune, tell us how many times you've been bitten." He asked Lee.

"I've been bitten three times. The first time, I was convinced I was going to die, so I told Clementine, the person We're looking for, to leave me. When I realized that I wasn't dead, I immediately began searching for her."

"After I saved your ass." Molly jabbed at him with a smirk.

"And the other two?" The first one asked.

"Saving her." Lee said, gesturing to Molly.

"Wait a minute." The other one said, lowering his gun down all the way. "Did you say, Clementine?" He asked them.

Lee and Molly directed their attention to him. "Holy shit. Are you Lee?" He asked him.

Lee nodded. "Yeah I am! You've met her?! Is she still here?! Is she safe?!" He shot off like a rocket.

"Easy there, big guy. Don't overload him." Molly said, trying her best not to jump for joy that they FINALLY met someone who's seen Clementine.


"So they stayed for a month before their leader lady, Christa, decided they would keep moving on. They were nice people. Clementine was so bright and happy when talking about you, until she got to how you 'died'." The second guard told them.

The two guard had let Lee and Molly inside and got them some ice water to drink.

"How long ago did they leave?" Lee asked them as he drank his water.

"Also what are your names?" Molly asked.

"I'm Jett, and this is Terry." Jett introduced himself.

"And to answer your question, Lee. They left here a long time ago. Maybe 10 months ago." Terry answered Lee.

Lee looked down to the ground. "Damn." Lee grunted to himself.

"Well, if the stories Clem told us were anything to go by, we know you aren't staying and that you'll be leaving here in a bit. So take one of our trucks and head north northwest. That's the way they were going." Terry told Lee.

"Thank you guys. Are you sure you wont get in trouble with your group for giving us a truck?" Lee asked them.

"Well considering Terry here is the leader's brother, I doubt it." Jett said.

"Well then, thank you two very much for your help." Lee said gratefully.

Molly and Lee took two duffel bags of supplies to go with the stuff they already had. Lee replaced the silencer on his pistol and Molly got a spare for hers. They got in the truck they were given by Terry and Jett. They drove off soon after they got everything situated.

"Finally! After a year, we have an actual fucking lead!" Molly said.

Lee nodded in agreement. "It feels good to have hope, to have more to go on then, well, nothing." Lee admitted.

Molly kicked her feet up on the dashboard of the truck. "Fuck yeah it does." She said enthusiastically.

The two survivors continued driving. "We're close to finding her, I know it. I can feel it." Lee said.

Molly smiled at her lover. "I can't wait to get to know her. I only had been able to interact with her for a short time. The first thing she did when I met her was save my life." Molly said, reminiscing about when she first met Lee and Clem.

Lee looked at Molly with a guilty look in his eyes. "I wasn't going to kill you, you know." Lee said, referring to when they first met.

"I know, but still. I won't lie and say that I wasn't a little scared of you...and a little turned on." Molly admitted with a blush.

Lee looked at her with a confused glance. "Well, what can I say, Lee? You were the first person to beat me in well...a long time. And then you pin me by straddling me~." Molly teased.

Lee rolled his eyes at his lover's antics as they continued driving. "I wonder how much she's grown in the past year..." Lee contemplated.

"Well if my past experiences with her mean anything, she's probably a little badass now." Molly said.

Lee nodded in agreement. "Damn straight."


Clementine was in the middle of killing ten walkers by herself, Omid and Christa were killing the other ten together. Clementine, wanting to conserve ammo as much as possible, used Leeya to kill all ten.

Omid and Christa used their guns to kill the other ten. "Damn. We should get outta here before more of them show up." Christa said after they were all dead.

Clementine and Omid nodded in agreement. They moved away from the area as fast as they could. Clementine stabbing any stray walkers in the head with Leeya. She jumped up and drop kicked a frail walker coming towards them. She stood on it's chest and stabbed it in the head before continuing to move on forwards.

After awhile of running, they slowed up when they reached another clearing. They decided they could walk from there. Clementine kept Leeya at the ready for just in case purposes.

Christa had her gun at the ready as they continued walking.

"I swear to god if we get to Michigan then find out Wellington isn't a thing..." Clementine grumbled angrily.

"Don't think about that, it WILL be there." Christa assured the ten year old.

Clementine sighed and nodded. "I hope so." She said under her breath.

They kept walking for the rest of the day until they saw a truck that seemed in good shape.

"Oh fuck yes! Please let that thing work!" Omid said as he dashed towards it.

Clementine and Christa followed him towards the truck. When they got there, they realized the truck wasn't in as good a shape as they thought. The tires were all flat. When Christa popped the hood, there wasn't anything in there.

"Damn." Omid said sadly. "Well, so much for that."

Christa sighed. "Let's just keep moving." She said before storming off in the direction they were heading before.

Clementine and Omid looked at each other before following her.
