Later that day Rick, Glenn, Tyreese, Sasha, Michonne, Joel, Kenny, and Lee were outside at the prison fences where walkers were trying to push though the fences. "Alright grab a pole and stab em' in the head" ordered Rick.
As everyone was stabbing the walkers Sasha noticed something on the ground. "Are you seeing this?" asked Sasha. "Why are there rats here?" asked Tyreese. "Is someone feeding these things?" asked Sasha. "What's that on the ground next to it" asked Lee. Joel decided to take a look. He was shock to see what it was. "A Firefly pendant?" asked Joel in shock. "There's a note too" said Rick. Joel then took the note and read it to himself. "What does it say?" asked Michonne. "We know where you are, we know who you are, and we will have her back, Marlene maybe dead but someone else has taken her place" read Joel. "Who's Marlene?" asked Glenn. "The leader of the Fireflies" answered Joel.
"Wonder who took her place?" asked Rick. "Rick do you think it could be The Governor?" asked Glenn. "If it is we know he's not alone" said Rick. "I reckon the fireflies must have found him" said Joel. "We need to fortify the prison we can't let them take Ellie" said Kenny. "Don't worry I'll have my people take watch and gather supplies to help fortify these fences" assured Rick.
Rick and the others came back to new cellblock that they were now staying in. "Everyone we have a problem" addressed Rick. "What is it?" asked Carol. "We think the fireflies are feeding walkers around the prison" said Rick. "How do you know that?" asked Carley. "We found this firefly pendant and a note they left" said Lee. "All we know is that they are still after Ellie and someone called "The Governor" is leading them" said Joel.
"What do we do?" asked Hershel. "We go out and scavenge supplies to help fortify the prison and we need people to keep watch starting today. "I volunteer to keep watch" said Carl. "Me too" said Ellie. "It's settled Carl and Ellie take first watch then whoever else volunteers takes the next shift and tomorrow is a supply run" said Rick.
Later that evening Carl and Ellie were on watch duty while everyone was locking down the cellblock and the gate to the prison.
"So you're immune to what's going on?" asked Carl trying to make conversation. "Y-Yeah" answered Ellie. "That must be pretty cool" said Carl. "Really how so?" asked Ellie. "I mean you don't have to worry about being infected" said Carl. "You know it is really nice out tonight" said Ellie changing the subject. "Guess it is" said Carl. "So tell me about yourself Carl what's a kid like you surviving a world like this?" asked Ellie. "I guess it all started when I thought my dad died. His best friend Shane told me and my mom that he died it really took a toll on us. Then that day when I say my dad alive I thought I was dreaming. But since then things between my dad and Shane soon soured to the point where he tried to kill my dad and I killed Shane" explained Carl. "Did you have any friends?" asked Ellie. "Sophia" answered Carl. "What happened to her?" asked Ellie. "She was bitten and my dad had to put her down" answered Carl. "Who was her mom?" asked Ellie. "Carol" answered Carl. "I bet it was hard for her" said Ellie. "It was" said Carl. "So what about you Ellie what's your story?" asked Carl. "My mom died when I was young. Since then I was placed in an orphanage for a while until Marlene took care of me. In Boston My Friend Riley and I got bitten unlike me she died. As I got older Marlene introduced me to Joel. Joel was to take me to Salt Lake City where Marlene had a hospital slash base for the fireflies. Along the way Joel and I came across another pair of survivors who didn't make it in the end" explained Ellie. "What were there names?" asked Carl. "One of them was named Henry and he had a little brother named Sam" answered Ellie. "What happened to them?" asked Carl. "Sam got bitten one night and the following morning he tried to bite me. Henry shot him but…he ended up shooting himself" said Ellie.
"How are you not afraid of what's out there?" asked Carl. "Who says I'm not" answered Ellie. "So what are you afraid of?" asked Carl. "Scorpions are pretty creepy, fairies just down right make me shit my pants, and I'm afraid of ending up all alone" answered Ellie. "Well you and Joel are safe here along with Lee, Clem, Kenny, and Carley. I promise I'll stay by your side and I won't leave you" promised Carl as he extended his hand out to Ellie. Ellie couldn't help but blush and hold Carl's hand. Ellie then rested her head on Carl's head as the two enjoyed each others company. But without warning Daryl opened the door to see the two kids holding hands. "Am I interrupting something?" asked Daryl. Carl and Ellie then scooted away from each other. "I don't know what you're talking about" said Carl and Ellie in unison. "Well it's my turn to keep watch…look for what its worth I didn't see anything" said Daryl. Carl and Ellie simply nodded as the two made their way to bed. "So uh I'll see you tomorrow then?" asked Ellie. "Yeah sure" said Carl. "Goodnight" said the two in unison.
