Carley and Lee walked over to the log, there Kenny and Lily squabbled like they always did, yet Katjaa was still staring off into space worried about her child. Kenny and Lilly were like a bunch of fussy babies, kicking and screaming for their way. Even though they fought a lot, they had the same great intentions, but those are what can get you killed in times like these. Lee remembered the first time Lily and Kenny fought back at the drugstore, it seemed like yesterday that they had no food at the motor inn, when the animosity was there, but the fights were shorter and they came from a place of hunger. It was good that they left those types of fights, for hunger was the main problem of the dead.

"We have to leave her here" Kenny said. He would have been so relieved to have one less problem to deal with, Duck was still sick and Kenny needed to release some of his stress.

"Kenny, I don't think you understand, I did the right thing. He was the bandit's smuggler, he was weak, a coward if anything" Lily knew that murder was not something to be proud of, but she would do whatever it takes to stick with the group.

Lily was also a lot weaker and only said things when and if they truly mattered "I have nothing to loose since my father's death, so whatever happens to me happens."

Kenny was shocked to hear Lily play her "father-card" for the billionth time. "I can't stand this, I'm so sick of hearing this shit. Carley was right; you are just a little girl who's afraid without her daddy. Military or not, we should leave you right here."

Carley filled in Lee on the argument. He knew that Carley and Lily had maintained some sort of friendship over time and it would have made Carley upset to see Lily go. Lee had another tough decision on his hands, but again it came down to whether he would side with Kenny or Lily. However, Lee being the resourceful man that he was spoke up.

"Stop, this is madness, you don't get to decide how things go anymore Lily"

Lily was in shock, she had never heard Lee raise his voice at her this much. "Until, we get to Savannah, I, Lee, will take over as temporary leader. Everyone get your stuff out of the R.V. we're getting on this train right now!"

Lee stood firm; tension had cooled of after Lee's rant and everyone slowly made their way onto the train. Carley was proud of Lee, he finally stepped up to the plate just as she had asked him to about a week ago. Lily was also pleased to see that Lee could replace her for a while, but more importantly, she gets to stick with the group a little bit longer. Clementine hopped aboard the train as it began to move, she watched as Duck coughed a storm and she didn't take her eyes off of him.

Carley was worried about Clementine and after all the hard work she put in to getting those Animal Crackers now was the best time to take Clem's mind off Duck. "Hey Clem, come over here. I got something for you."

Clementine slowly moved her way over to Carley, she knew that Duck wasn't going to get better just by watching him. "Now I know you said you were hungry, so I found these"

Carley gave the Animal Crackers to Clementine, internally she was proud of herself for providing for Clem. "Wow thanks mom… I mean…uh."

Clementine was embarrassed her cheeks burned a bright red, Lee also observed the exchanged and was surprised to hear Clementine react to Carley so positively.

"Sorry, my mom used to pack me Animal Crackers for school, they were my favourite." Clementine took the Animal Crackers and unpacked the box, she was delighted to eat them.

"Good, I'm glad you like them." Carley was happy to see that Clementine enjoyed her gift, she glanced over at Lee and he gave her the thumbs up. Carley could see that her mission had been accomplished and Lee would remember that.

Lily stood in between the two cars of the freighter, she was so embarrassed by what she had done and she briefly thought about jumping under the train tracks, but what good would that have done her. She had just fought to stay in the group for a bit longer, she had restrained herself for a bit longer. Lily weighed out all her options once they got to Savannah and she was sure that Kenny would let her on his boat after what she did. After all, besides Carley and Lee who really liked her and did she even care what people thought anymore? Just then, Lee approached her, she was ready for another lecture about morals or something of that sort.

"I know what you did and I get that. Thank you for all that you've done"

"Would you have let me on the R.V. if I shot Carley." Lily looked only at the train tracks; it put her at ease for now, knowing that they were going to be someplace else.

Lee was furious but he restrained himself "No I wouldn't have. To be honest I don't know why you're still on this train, I had your back in the meat locker, at the motor inn. I stood up to Kenny for you and you couldn't keep a lid on your temper."

Lee was the leader now and needed to show Lily that he was in charge "Once we get to Savannah, we need to have another discussion about what were going to do with you."

Lee began to walk away, he thought he had displayed his dominance enough, but Lily held him back. "Lee! Don't forget that I kept you fed for the past 4 to 5 months. Don't forget that Clementine is alive because of me and don't you dare forget that I'm not a helpless coward like Ben."

Lee chose to stay silent not because Lily made yet another fair point. Lee knew that he could turn his back on Lily and walk towards what really mattered to him in the other car. Carley and Clementine, they were waiting for him, but more importantly there was another discussion still at hand. Where should Lee and Carley's relationship go? Was this the right time to talk about it with Duck coughing and spluttering all over the place?

It was now or never for Lee, she needed to know how he felt before anything else happened. "Car, can I talk to you for a second"
